high-dimensional consciousness eventually vanished, leaving behind some traces.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For instance, the talent \"Water Breathing\" became even more exceptional, with effects surpassing others.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Reflected on the panel, it was upgraded from a blue excellent quality to a purple epic.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Despite relying on the Original Vowel to achieve Meditation and neutralizing most of the negative mental impacts,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>the effect on this type of blessing was less than ideal.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>from the current situation, the advantages still outweigh the disadvantages.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Truth be told, having fought using True Qi just now, Fang Cheng was able to display an astonishing power beyond expectations.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Besides the training effect from high-pressure undersea weight training, a larger reason lies in the additional support from the talent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Should he leave the ocean environment,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fang Cheng admits that he definitely couldn’t create such impressive wave effects with sound resonance as before.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>During these thoughts, the ebb and flow of the ocean tides entered his ears, rising and falling.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Within them, there seemed to be faint voices of prayer and praise mixed in.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fang Cheng’s gaze slightly hardened as he gained sudden insight.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everything in the world, like reincarnation, cycles tirelessly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Every drink and every peck has its cause and effect.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Stealing Heavenly Secrets means taking opportunities from the world and from others.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Taking a portion for oneself inevitably leads to losses for others in the world.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thus the saying:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The Way of Heaven is to subtract from what has excess and add to what is lacking; The Way of Humanity is to subtract from what is lacking and add to what has excess.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Through this undersea training, Fang Cheng successfully seized many opportunities, greatly enhancing his own strength.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet, in the grand scheme of things, he also shouldered a responsibility that was hard to articulate.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon realizing this, Fang Cheng looked around.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing that the Merfolk seemed to regard him as a leader, all gazing at him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His thoughts slightly stirred.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The blue glowing bones spewed from the underwater fracture were likely opportunities for them and the True Thought Society.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now that he had taken over many.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To gain something is to give something in return.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So, let me take care of this trouble for you, to settle a segment of cause and effect!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The moment he made the decision, the Spiritual Fire in his mind flickered slightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The muddy glow seemed to purify a bit as if a spiritual cleansing was happening on some level.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fang Cheng’s mind quickly steadied, prepared to return to the surface, ready to embrace a battle of his own.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As he turned, his gaze was suddenly drawn to an iron box lying on the limestone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It must have been an underwater sediment spewed from the depths of the Abyss, the box lid half-open.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fang Cheng’s eyes narrowed, seeing a faint red light twinkling inside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He quickly swam over and opened the lid completely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Inside the box, there were deposits of mud and seaweed, and on top of them lay a bizarre mask.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Resembling white plaster, crafted with a ghoul face and a pair of horns.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The eye sockets were even inset with two clear red gems.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was probably an antique worth a good amount of money.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Holding it felt cool and bone-chilling; when pressing with his fingertips, not a single crack appeared, showing its extreme hardness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Great treasure!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fang Cheng liked it more and more as he looked, so he simply removed his diving mask and put the stone mask on his face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The material of the mask was extremely special; it seemed slightly too large at first.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once worn on his face, however, it possessed a contracting force, quickly clipping tightly to his skull, covering his entire face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The disguise was several times stronger than the diving mask.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just as Fang Cheng felt surprised,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>the beams of light from the surface kept moving, as if inspecting the undersea landscape, searching for someone’s tracks.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Merfolk, startled, hurriedly hid into the darkness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Suddenly, the beam of light stopped and landed precisely on Fang Cheng, who had put on the mask.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fang Cheng looked up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His gaze followed the beam of light, piercing through the rolling waves, and he could barely make out a figure.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although the person was wearing a diving suit, the face looked very familiar.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was the man who had, all by himself, overwhelmed Pan Wendi and Lin Chuqiao that night, even briefly suppressing Fang Cheng himself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fang Cheng’s eyebrows rose, and a fierce desire for battle surged in his heart.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He stood on the volcanic rock, sinking his body and bending his knees.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In an instant, he shot upwards like an arrow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Bounce\" and \"Ape waist\" abilities activated, \"Water Breathing\" technique enhanced.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He zoomed through the fifty meters of deep water like a torpedo.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the pressure from the water decreased, Fang Cheng’s ascent sped up, terrifyingly fast.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the fishing boat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing the figure shooting up from the seabed, Li Chengjun’s heart skipped a beat, and he immediately commanded in a low voice:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Everyone watch my hand signal, prepare to fire!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The sea roiled tumultuously, like an enraged beast churning violently.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the rocking deck, thirty-some well-trained Hunters stood firm, assault rifles in hands, ready for battle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Splash!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Suddenly, a figure soared high, bringing up a huge wave, like a whale leaping out of the sea.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bang bang bang bang bang—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Almost at the same moment, Li Chengjun’s hand gesture rose, and everyone pulled the trigger.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A burst of flames erupted, and bullets poured down like scalding metal rain amidst the storm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Under such ferocious firepower, even a real whale would have been riddled with holes and killed instantly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, something unexpected happened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The massive wave created from the seabed seemed to form an armor-like protection around the person, repelling all the bullets.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just like that, a premeditated concentrated attack came to nothing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But that was fine.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The huge wave ascended high and would soon crash down mightily.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The person, out of the protection of the water, was falling straight from the sky, unable to dodge.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Keep aiming and fire!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Chengjun ordered coldly, his eyes calm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bang bang bang bang bang—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With flames bursting forth and the deafening sound of gunfire, like countless thunderclaps exploding, the perilous sea area became even more intense.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Indeed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The man couldn’t dodge mid-air.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But he did something more shocking to the onlookers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That muscular and bare-skinned figure remained impressively stable, feet apart, waist sunken, and knees bent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Precisely as he fell, he posed in a Horse Stance, just like an Arhat descending from the heavens.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then the bullets, dense as raindrops, all hit the target.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But, there was no flying flesh or splattering blood to be seen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On both boats, thirty-four submachine guns and assault rifles fired in unison.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hot shell casings fell like beads, scattering onto the deck and into the water.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And then, that person re-entered the roiling waves.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without a typical splash, seemingly unharmed, he stood directly on the water surface, walking as if on waves.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon closer observation, one could spot a merfolk beneath his feet, its body covered in dark green scales and particularly robust.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the ceaselessly rolling waves, countless indistinct forms of half-human, half-fish creatures were swimming towards him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unbeknownst to all, many merfolk had gathered here, forming dark green reefs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And the man standing on these reefs, wearing a strange mask, with black hair fluttering in the wind, truly seemed like the Sea God ruling over this dark maritime realm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This scene immediately silenced the crowd in shock, and even the sound of gunfire sporadically ceased.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Chengjun looked at the man surrounded by merfolk, feeling an extremely dangerous aura in his gaze.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He couldn’t help but take a deep breath and asked in a deep voice:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Who on earth are you?!\"\u003C\u002Fp>",1304,"2026-05-29T15:13:17.897Z","2026-06-01T04:29:34.702Z",1,"novelbin.me","6eeeeed8361fea464684e87a40d05f5b66200f415811e75246b9249b3ee959d3","starting-to-gain-experience-from-push-ups-chapter-190","starting-to-gain-experience-from-push-ups-chapter-188",1278,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fstarting-to-gain-experience-from-push-ups-cover.jpg"]
