Chapter 55 The First Water Toad
Thinking of this speculation, Yi Xifeng suppressed his excitement, took off his gown and jacket, and jumped into the cold pool.
The cold pool water surrounded Yi Xifeng like huge ice nets, and the wine energy control technique circulated in all the air pockets around his body. It would be difficult for an ordinary person to stay in such a pool for too long. Fortunately, before Yi Xifeng came to this world, he was a famous swimmer in the school, and was given the title of "The No. 1 Water Toad in Class 14"...
Even though he came to this world, he never let go of his previous "water skills". After practicing the Jiu Qi Control Technique, Yi Xifeng's breath-holding time under water was also significantly lengthened due to the cycle of his own internal energy.
According to his own calculations, if he uses alcohol to control his energy to keep his Qi pulse intact, he can stay still underwater for half an hour (an hour). However, if he exercises vigorously in the water and swims around, that time will be halved.
An hour passed quietly, and this was the fourth time that Yi Xifeng emerged from the cold pool. Yi Xifeng felt a little helpless when he saw three ice iron stones lying quietly on the boulder beside the cold pool. After going down four times, he only found three pieces of ice iron stone, not what he expected.
"Did I think wrongly? Is it really Uncle Lin who remembered it wrong? The ice iron stone will not freeze in the water." Yi Xifeng's eyes wandered and he accidentally caught a glimpse of the ice iron stone he fished out before. By then a layer of white frost had formed on its surface. Yi Xifeng picked up the ice iron stone and observed it carefully, then put it down, turned around and jumped back into the cold pool.
Cold Spring Cold Pond is not big, with a diameter of less than a hundred steps, but its depth is astonishing. Yi Xifeng did not look around again this time, but swam directly to the bottom of the pool.
All the way down, as the water pressure continued to increase, the temperature also continued to drop, and Yi Xifeng's inner strength became faster and faster. A quarter of an hour later, Yi Xifeng finally reached the bottom of the pool. Fortunately, the bottom of the pool was made of hard rocks and sand instead of deep silt. Yi Xifeng did not open his eyes. Not to mention that it was still late at night outside. Even with the scorching sun, it was difficult for the sunlight to penetrate this deep.
Yi Xifeng groped for a raised stone at the bottom of the pool. He stood firmly on it and took out the wooden sword from the Guizang scabbard. Yi Xifeng held the hilt of the sword with one hand, pointing the tip of the wooden sword diagonally at the bottom of the pool. On the other hand, his index finger and middle finger were together, his thumb and ring finger interlocked, and he silently pressed a sword secret. I saw Yi Xifeng using the wooden sword as a guide on the stone, slowly waving the wooden sword to stir up the water around him.
At first, only the water flow around Yi Xifeng's body was affected, forming a turbulent undercurrent following every swing of Yi Xifeng's sword.
Slowly, Yi Xifeng released his inner energy, and sword shadows shot out from Yi Xifeng's wooden sword and merged into the surrounding streams of water. Gradually, more and more water flows around Yi Xifeng, and more and more sword shadows surround Yi Xifeng.
For about the time of a cup of tea, the water flow within a ten-foot radius of Yi Xifeng followed the shadow of Yi Xifeng's sword and swirled around Yi Xifeng. The bottom of the pond, which had been silent for many years, also became agitated, and the quicksand and gravel at the bottom of the pond were swept into the torrent.
Yi Xifeng silently calculated in his heart, "One hundred and twenty-three, one hundred and twenty-four...one hundred and twenty-eight!"
With Yi Xifeng's current internal energy level, the ultimate level is to release one hundred and twenty-eight energy sword shadows. This is the result of Yi Xifeng's continuous advancement in the past half month.
When he used his sword shadow to attack Lin Lei for the first time, Yi Xifeng could only use eighty-eight sword shadows to create a "thousand-mile river", which was comparable to Lin Lei's Green Thunder Three Shadow Slash in the Mang Realm. While fighting the Maple Leaf Wolves in Maple Leaf Forest, Yi Xifeng broke through the limit between life and death and blocked the Maple Leaf Wolf's fierce attack with an "Eight Sword Curtain" composed of one hundred and eight sword shadows. The improvement to one hundred and twenty-eight sword shadows this time was mainly due to the martial arts competition during the day.
Looking at the rushing water and sword shadows surrounding him, Yi Xifeng felt unprecedented relief and peace of mind. Even if he is deep in the bottom of the pool, even if the internal energy in his body is no longer enough to support him in swimming back to the surface.
Yi Xifeng raised the wooden sword high, pointed it directly at the water above his head, and said silently: "Special skill, thousands of miles of rivers!"
One hundred and twenty-eight piercing sword shadows, mixed with the rapid water and sand in the cold spring and cold pool, gathered in the direction pointed by Yi Xifeng's wooden sword. The rotation speed is also getting faster and faster.
It was already the ugly time in the calm cold spring and cold pool. The violent bears and maple wolves in the maple leaf forest were all resting in their lairs. Only some small nocturnal animals were still looking for food and water by the cold pool.
Under the moonlight, a sable fox was drinking water by the pool. The harvest tonight was quite fruitful. Not only did it eat a gray rabbit, but it also took out a nest of red tit eggs. Thinking of the sweet taste of bird eggs, it couldn't help but lick its sharp little claws.
"Whoa, whoa, whoosh." The sable fox raised its ears alertly. A small carnivore like it is not at the top of the food chain. There are still many predators that can hurt it.
I saw that the usually dead cold spring and cold pool seemed to be boiling at this time. A huge vortex slowly formed on the water surface, and the water flow became more and more rapid.
The sable fox looked at the whirlpool in the water in horror, then turned and ran into the woods.
Suddenly, there was a loud noise, like thunder exploding in the water, and like the roar of the legendary water dragon. A column of water about ten feet thick rose into the sky. The water column was mixed with bright sword shadows. Under the reflection of the moonlight, they really looked like the scales of the legendary dragon, shining with light.
The water column spread out in mid-air, and a young man floated down from it with his bare arms. It was Yi Xifeng.
What fell with Yi Xifeng was the sand and gravel that had been buried at the bottom of the pool for countless years.

Early the next morning.
The villagers in Yinren Village all get up relatively early. Everyone in Yinren Village who has experienced art training has become accustomed to starting their busy day at Mao hour (six o'clock) every day.
At this time, the Chunfeng Riverside was undoubtedly the busiest place in Yinren Village. Businessmen from all over the country gather here, and naturally there are many people who come here early in the morning to catch the morning market.
And the merchants also know that today is the last day of selection for the martial arts competition. All kinds of odds are open. The most popular one is the speculation about the twelve masters of Yanwu. Since Zhao Long and Yi Xifeng were the champions in advance, the merchants decided to publicize the remaining ten spots and make another profit.
"Brother, who do you like? Hmm, oh, oh, the analysis makes sense! Why don't you place a bet? The one you picked is a big favorite, and the odds are 4 to 5. It's a sure profit. Why don’t you make money? Just treat it as nothing!”
"Girl, who do you like? Oops! Girls have a keen eye for heroes, and being handsome is part of their strength! Why don't you place a bet? The one you picked is a big underdog, and the odds are three to one. Choosing a champion is just like choosing a man. The girl has unique vision. If she really wins, wouldn’t it be a good idea to go find that hero with this dowry?”
"This kid, who do you like? Hmm, tsk tsk, it doesn't matter if you don't understand. It depends on fate. It doesn't mean you can beat the right one if you understand it. Otherwise, why am I still here? Why don't you make a bet? Why don't you? Money? Um...what does your family do? Are your parents rich? How about you stay here and let us go in and out?"
…
It was already Mao Shi when Yi Xifeng came out of Maple Leaf Forest. He happened to pass by the Chunfeng River and stopped by to take a look at the situation. As soon as he walked over, he heard that a person named "Ouye Trading Company" was promoting them. The odds offered.
Yi Xifeng listened on the sidelines, smiled slightly, and made up his mind, deciding to finish the matter at hand first and then come to this "research". So he turned around, reached out and patted the backpack behind him, and walked towards the blacksmith.
