Chapter 265: Finalists Announced, Tang San's Changes!
After a while, the conversation between Ye Tianchen and Qian Daoliu came to an end.
Both of them understood each other and prepared themselves!
Above the Sea God Island, under a waterfall!
...Plop.
Tang San couldn't remember how many times he had been washed into the pool.
The impact of a waterfall pouring down from a height of 200 meters was so great that only those who had truly experienced it could understand it.
With his soul power sealed by Tang Chen, it was difficult for him to practice hammering in the waterfall, let alone climb up the huge boulder.
Three whole days passed, and Tang San never stood firmly on the smooth stone.
He didn't even swing a hammer.
Every day, he was exhausted before he reluctantly climbed ashore to rest. Once his energy was restored, he returned to the bottom of the waterfall to work hard again.
Tang San's character has always been known for his perseverance, and he has never known what failure is.
If he fails once, he will try twice, and if he fails twice, he will try three times.
He firmly believes that there must be a reason for what his great-grandfather asked him to do.
Under the effect of the Purple Demon Eye, Tang San began to judge the smoothness of the round stone and the impact of the water flow.
Find the best entry point to stand on the stone.
Start to try to avoid the impact of the water flow!
Use every part of your body to relieve the force.
The heavy casting hammer undoubtedly helped him. The heavier the weight, the less likely it is to be washed down into the pool.
Tang Chen has been meditating and practicing in the hole he blasted out.
He didn't care about Tang San's affairs.
Tang San stored a lot of drinking water and food in the Twenty-Four Bridges Moonlit Night, enough for him to last for a month.
So, during this month, Tang San didn't pick fruits.
Whenever he came up to rest, he would divide some food and send it to his great-grandfather's cave and put it in front of Tang Chen.
Rest immediately after eating, and jump into the water again when his energy is restored.
Tang Chen occasionally opened his eyes, and his eyes would naturally fall on Tang San. Seeing his descendants being washed down and climbed up again and again, he would reveal a hint of relief in his eyes.
"Silly boy, do you know?
This waterfall is a casting hammer for you.
It refines your body!
As the only divine craftsman on the continent, what I have to do is to train you into a real divine weapon!"
Five seconds...
Finally made it to five seconds!
On the fifth day, Tang San was able to hold on to the boulder for five seconds.
On the fifth day, Tang San was able to hold on to the boulder for five seconds.
Although he did not have the help of soul power, standing on the stone, his body could gently move according to the characteristics of the ghost shadow to relieve the impact of the waterfall and try to find the best balance point to withstand the impact.
Even if it was difficult to breathe, he tried to hold on for a while longer.
For Tang San, this was undoubtedly a good start.
As the saying goes, everything is difficult at the beginning.
The initial persistence is undoubtedly the most painful!
Tang San not only had to bear the strong impact of the waterfall, but also had to bear the pain of not being able to exert his soul power.
Just like an adult suddenly became a child, the power was instantly reduced, and it always takes some time to adapt.
And five days is exactly the process of this adaptation.
For five days, Tang San gradually recovered from the pain of not being able to use Xuantian Gong after being constantly impacted by the water flow. With the improvement of his own wisdom by the light of the sea god, he gradually mastered the method.
From the sixth day, the time he stayed on the boulder increased geometrically, and the casting hammer in his hand could finally be swung.
It was undoubtedly extremely painful to force on the smooth boulder.
But Tang San was so smart that he did not rush to practice the chaotic cloak hammer method, but first tried to adapt to the fighting force in the waterfall as much as possible, and tried to control it at the balance point.
Let the waterfall flow wash over.
When Tang San was finally able to stand firmly under the waterfall and would not be washed into the water again.
Tang Chen finally gave him the second instruction.
Practice.
Practice soul power.
Of course, for Tang San, it was to practice Xuantian Gong.
Tang San was once very surprised by his great-grandfather's statement. His Xuantian Gong internal force had been sealed, so how could he practice it?
But when he really started practicing, he found that the seal his great-grandfather had given him was very strange. Although he could not use the inner force of Xuantian Gong, his practice was not affected.
Whenever he started practicing in his empty body, the accumulated inner force would naturally merge into the fiery seal after a cycle, and merge with his original inner force.
Although Tang San could not feel the degree of progress of Xuantian Gong in this way, after practicing, the speed of physical recovery would obviously accelerate.
So, from this day on, Tang San practiced for three hours every day, and spent the rest of the time exercising under the waterfall.
Puff - the casting hammer smashed a small splash in the waterfall, circulated a cycle, and returned to Tang San's head.
Success!
Tang San was very happy, but he was only happy for a while, because of his unstable mind, he was washed into the pool by the waterfall.
Today is the fifteenth day since he came here. After unremitting efforts, he was finally able to successfully swing the first hammer of Chaos Cloak, and he would not slide off the round stone when he was strong.
With the first hammer, there is the second hammer. As Tang San continued to practice, the Chaos Cloak Hammer Technique began to show up in his hands.
After all, the casting hammer is not the Clear Sky Hammer, so its weight is not that terrible, and its own weight can also help Tang San stabilize his body on the stone. Gradually, his chaotic cloak hammer method became more and more proficient in the waterfall.
From the beginning, it could only splash a few water drops, and later it danced in the wind and rain. It was like a circular barrier under the waterfall, constantly blocking the impact of the waterfall water flow, splashing large pieces of water.
The number of swings of the casting hammer increased rapidly and steadily.
In a blink of an eye, a month passed!
Boom-the last hammer was thrown out, and Tang San's body soared into the sky like a cannonball, facing the waterfall that was rushing down ten meters.
Within ten meters, the waterfall water was counterattacked and went upstream, and under the drive of his body, a huge roar was heard!
Even the rainbow across the pool was stirred up at this moment...
That was certainly not what Tang San could achieve with his current strength, but the characteristics of the chaotic cloak hammer method.
One hammer was stronger than another, and the power of one hammer was superimposed on another.
If it weren't for Tang San's extremely strong physical fitness, the huge impact force would be enough to tear all the muscles on his body.
When the 9981 hammers were all completed, the 81 superimposed forces gathered together. Even if he couldn't use half of his soul power now, the terrifying attack power at that moment exceeded his peak moment.
Bang - the power disappeared, and Tang San's body in the waterfall was heavily smashed into the pool, but the excitement in his heart at this moment was indescribable.
After three months, he finally completed the request of his great-grandfather and finally swung the 81st hammer.
Now Tang San's skin is full of a healthy bronze color, and his height has increased by a few points. Although the beard on his head and face looks messy, his eyes like cold stars are shining.
When the water flow rolled back, Tang Chen, who was sitting in the stone cave, had opened his eyes, and the light of surprise flashed from his eyes!
Even as the first person on the continent to reach the 99th level of Titled Douluo without any external force, he couldn't help but admire the excellence of his descendants at this time.
At first, it took him half a year to complete this step.
But Tang San, who was determined, took only three months with the help of his talent.
Jumping from the pool to the shore, Tang San held the casting hammer in one hand, and the first thing he saw was his great-grandfather's eyes.
Tang Chen's eyes swept over Tang San. After three months, Tang San's muscles became clearer. Although each muscle was not exaggeratedly huge, there was a faint halo on the skin. With his Titled Douluo's eyesight, he could naturally see the explosive power contained in it.
"Great-grandfather, I succeeded!
Eighty-one hammers!"
Tang San said to Tang Chen with some pride.
Eighty-one hammers, eighty-one hammers, the kind of mental and physical transcendence made him full of excitement.
Tang Chen nodded to him and uttered two words, "Very good. However, you have to do better."
While speaking, Tang Chen took the casting hammer from Tang San's hand and waved it casually. The casting hammer had already soared into the sky like a meteor and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
Ignoring the somewhat dazed Tang San, Tang Chen grabbed a big tree beside him with one hand. His hand cut into the tree trunk like a sharp blade, and the whole tree was directly cut off like tofu.
Tang Chen's hand moved, and Tang San only saw the flying wood chips and Tang Chen's illusory palm shadow.
You know, his Purple Extreme Demon Eye has reached the peak stage of the third level. With his current eyesight, he can't see Tang Chen's movements clearly, which shows how fast Tang Chen is.
When Tang Chen stopped, another hammer appeared in his hand, exactly the same as the previous casting hammer, but it was made of a cut tree.
He put the wooden hammer in his hand into Tang San's palm, "Next, use it to practice the chaotic cloak hammer method. If the hammer handle breaks, you can do it yourself."
After leaving this sentence, Tang Chen went back to his cave.
It was another simple explanation, but the task given to Tang San was even more difficult.
When he first took the wooden hammer, Tang San didn't feel anything.
In a month, he was used to using a casting hammer weighing dozens of kilograms. Now holding this wooden hammer, it was as light as nothing!
When he went into the water again and swam towards the waterfall, it was much easier than before. The wooden hammer itself had buoyancy, and it was so light that it saved almost one-fifth of the time, and Tang San came to the bottom of the waterfall.
However, when he climbed onto the boulder under the waterfall, he immediately felt something was wrong.
Under the huge impact of the water flow, his body shook, and he was almost washed off the boulder.
You know, this month's training has long made him stand on the boulder as stable as a nail inserted.
How could he not be surprised when his steps suddenly became weak?
Soon, Tang San realized that something was wrong. The casting hammer in his hand became a wooden hammer, and the weight was very different. His original center of gravity and familiarity with the water flow had changed.
The weight was different, so it was naturally more difficult to stand firm.
After thinking this through, Tang San immediately understood his great-grandfather's intention.
He was smart and did not swing the wooden hammer in his hand immediately after standing firm, but stood there steadily, controlling the wooden hammer and swinging it gently, feeling the feeling of the wooden hammer in the water flow.
The seemingly light wooden hammer actually encountered greater resistance in the water than the previous casting hammer.
Its own lightness was affected by the dual effects of water buoyancy and impact, making it more difficult for Tang San to control it.
When Tang San felt that he could stand firm again, he began to use the chaotic cloak hammer method again.
The first and second hammers could still be held normally, but they were not convenient. However, when it came to the third hammer, the wooden hammer itself was fragile and broke instantly when breaking the water curtain.
A wooden hammer, useless!
From this day on, Tang San entered the second stage of training.
He had no internal force and could not inject internal force into the wooden hammer to protect it. What he could do was to control the power as much as possible and control the wooden hammer to prevent it from being broken by the water flow while constantly adding force.
Not broken by his own power.
The sudden increase in difficulty did not make Tang San retreat, but made him more focused, and a more arduous special training began.
Two months later.
Amidst the piercing roar, a huge water curtain rushed into the sky.
This time, it was no longer part of the waterfall that was lifted up, but almost the entire ten-meter-wide waterfall.
Under the waterfall, the figure that soared into the air was shining with bronze brilliance all over his body, shining like gold under the sunlight.
Eighty-one hammers, Tang San has already forgotten how many eighty-one hammers he has completed.
Falling into the pool, feeling the coolness surrounding him, he relaxed his body as much as possible.
He knew that for him, this was only a short period of relaxation.
Next, he didn't know what kind of training method his great-grandfather would give him.
What he held in his hand was no longer a wooden hammer as big as a casting hammer, but a large wooden hammer with a cross-sectional diameter of two meters.
And behind such a huge wooden hammer, the hammer handle was only as thick as a human arm.
It is conceivable that if the wooden hammer was just lifted normally, the hammer handle might break directly under the weight.
But Tang San relied on the clever control of strength to complete the eighty-one hammers under the waterfall.
What a huge impact force of the water flow, if it wasn't such a huge hammer, how could he make the entire waterfall roll back ten meters in an instant?
At this time, his chaotic cloak hammer method had been practiced to the extreme.
Just as Tang San expected, when he returned to the shore, Tang Chen was already waiting for him there, but unlike before, this time when he was about to go ashore, Tang Chen's rough big hand appeared in front of him.
After a short stagnation, Tang San stretched out his right hand and shook hands with Tang Chen.
Tang Chen exerted force, and Tang San's body broke through the water and landed in front of him.
It has been three months since he came here. Tang San has obviously become taller. He is almost sixteen years old, and he is a completely adult, and a tall one.
He looks more and more like his younger self.
Although he is not yet sixteen years old, the firmness on his face is something that ordinary men in their twenties or thirties cannot have.
Firmness, decisiveness, perseverance, the excellent qualities of the direct descendants of the Haotian Sect can be clearly found in him.
Tang Chen is very satisfied with Tang San's results!
Although he would not show it...
Tang San had already thrown the large wooden hammer in his hand aside without Tang Chen's help, "Great Grandfather, what will you use next?"
In three months, he had adapted to this special training and could clearly feel his improvement in this special training.
For the application of strength, Tang San could be said to have reached the extreme.
He could even clearly control the trend of every bit of his strength.
Out of the pond, even the slightest fluctuation of strength around him could not hide from his senses, even a blade of grass could become a killing weapon in his hands without soul power.
