Puff! A bucket of water was poured on the hot stones, and a large amount of white smoke suddenly rose. The room was filled with steam and the temperature kept rising. However, Zhang Yuan, who was in it, felt that he was not satisfied, so he added another bucket of water. The hotter, the better! This is a sauna room. From design to renovation, the sauna room was completely done by Zhang Yuan himself! At the beginning, he just built it for the purpose of relaxing his body and mind. Unexpectedly, practicing the Rock Pile in an environment filled with high-temperature steam was very effective! At this moment, Zhang Yuan was only wearing a pair of calf-nose pants.
Under the scorching heat, his skin seemed to be as red as a cooked prawn, his muscles were stretched and twisted, the blood in his body was surging, and the bones all over his body made fine vibrations. This is the characteristic of strength entering the tendons and bones! It has been a while since Zhang Yuan was promoted to the second-level dark strength. At this point, his progress naturally slowed down, and the growth of Qi and blood tended to stagnate. All warriors will encounter such a bottleneck in the dark energy stage. Some people force their way through through hard work, while others rely on their talents to easily break through. There are also those who change their fate by krypton gold. Zhang Yuan also encountered a bottleneck, but he was not anxious at all. Because Zhang Yuan's strength has improved very quickly, not slower than those genius children of the sects and aristocratic families. And too fast progress in cultivation is not necessarily a good thing, it is easy to have the problem of unstable foundation. On the contrary, it is not conducive to future growth. After practicing the middle three forms of the Rock Pillar Exercise ten times, Zhang Yuan was already sweating profusely, and his weight had at least decreased by two or three pounds. He jumped into the bathtub next to him. Let the potion soak his whole body. This boiled medicine soup had been soaked once before, and now the little remaining medicine power was completely absorbed by Zhang Yuan. Not a single waste. Leaning against the edge of the bucket, he breathed a sigh of relief. Then he opened the God's Nest panel. [Host: Zhang Yuan]
[Realm: Second Level (Dark Power)] [God's Nest: Level 2 (89%)] [Parent: Level 3 Black Giant Ant (1%)/8 times Strength] [Parent: Level 3 Jade Mantis (1%)/Advanced Sword Skills Mastery] [Parent: Level 3 Golden Grasshopper (1%)/8 times Agility] [Parent: Level 3 White Dragon Loach (1%)/Advanced Water Mastery] [Qi and Blood: 225/228] [Source Essence: 0] Half a month has passed since the battle to wipe out the Yinshan Cultists. Zhang Yuan has put the source essence he has obtained into the God's Nest, and finally raised the evolution of the God's Nest to nearly 90%. If he works harder, it will not be a problem to advance to level 3. The problem is that the source essence is really not easy to get now. Qianfeng Mountain is still closed, and Feiyanbo is dangerous and unpredictable, which greatly limits the source of source materials. He can't kill people for no reason, right? Thinking in his heart, Zhang Yuan soaked in the water, closed his eyes and fell asleep. If it were an ordinary person, if he dared to sleep in such an environment, he would probably lose his life in his dream. But for Zhang Yuan, it was more comfortable than sleeping in bed. The cold wind was howling outside the house, and the room was steaming hot. In the early morning, when Zhang Yuan woke up, the room was already cold. But he didn't feel the slightest chill, got up and stepped out of the bathtub, took a towel to wipe off the water stains on his body. He changed into a set of clean clothes and went out. Xiangxiu had prepared breakfast. After eating and drinking, Zhang Yuan went to Whale Castle to practice martial arts as usual. Without unremitting efforts every day, how could there be a rapid improvement in cultivation? "Master Zhang!" Most of the people he met along the way bowed to him with a smile. Zhang Yuan smiled and returned the greetings one by one. Now Zhang Yuan is already a big shot in the Linhe branch of the Whale Gang. Among the rising stars, no one can compare with him!
Zhang Yuan's fame and prestige are due to his outstanding performance in several battle hall operations. There are already three great merits under Zhang Yuan's name! For such a sharp newcomer, even the old master of the incense has to treat him politely. Just when Zhang Yuan was about to go to the training room, Goldman Sachs hurried over with several men. When the deputy master of the battle hall saw Zhang Yuan, he immediately called out: "Zhang Yuan, follow me." Zhang Yuan hurriedly followed and asked: "What happened?" He looked at the other person and it seemed that something big had happened. "A strange ship appeared in the upper reaches of Tianma River, blocking the waterway." Goldman replied in a deep voice: "We just received the news. Now we are going to check it out and find a way to solve it." Strange ship? Zhang Yuan was surprised. He has been in the Whale Gang for quite a while and has heard many stories and legends about strange ships. Strange ships are also called ghost ships. Many ships traveling on rivers, lakes and reservoirs will suddenly disappear for no reason and cannot be found. Then after a period of time, a few years or even more than ten years, the missing ships will suddenly appear in a river or a lake area. These ships are strange ships. The disappearance and appearance of strange ships cannot be traced, and they are often far apart. There are no living creatures on the ship, but it is full of evil. If ordinary people mistakenly enter a strange ship, they may get seriously ill at best, or die inexplicably or become crazy at worst. Therefore, for people who make a living on the water, strange ships are very scary. No one wants to encounter them! Now there is a strange ship blocking the waterway of Tianma River. The Linhe Branch, which relies on this river for business, naturally has an obligation to come forward to solve it. Zhang Yuan followed Goldman Sachs on a speedboat. The Wrathful Whale Gang can build its own ships, warships, merchant ships, fishing boats and speedboats, all from the Craftsman Hall. The speedboat Zhang Yuan took was the masterpiece of the craftsmen of the Craftsman Hall. It has exquisite craftsmanship and simple shape, equipped with fast sails and four well-trained oarsmen. The speed is naturally first-class. Originally, Zhang Yuan wanted to know more about the strange ship. But seeing Goldman Sachs' gloomy expression, he wisely kept silent.
The speedboat went upstream all the way, and after sailing for more than half an hour, he finally saw the so-called strange ship. I saw a large ship parked in the middle of the river ahead. This ship is a standard merchant ship, which is very common on the Tianma River. It often travels between Linhe and Nanxun to transport various goods. But its sails are full of holes, and the surface of the hull is covered with a large number of aquatic creatures. It looks like it has just been salvaged from the bottom of the water, and it is the kind of thing that has been submerged in the water for decades. What is surprising is that this ship is clearly not anchored, but it is firmly placed in the middle of the water. It remains motionless despite the impact of the water flow! It is indeed very strange. And upstream and downstream of the strange ship, there are many merchant ships and fishing boats parked near the shore. In fact, the river is very wide. Although the strange ship occupies the middle position, there is still enough space on the left and right sides for other ships to pass, and it cannot be said that it completely blocks the waterway. But no ship dares to pass by it!
