Chapter 298 Persistence is Victory
When Tang Zheng bombarded the extremely powerful King of Realm Fist and collided with the huge water column splashed by the huge rock, a huge wave of air burst out when the two opposite forces collided, which shocked Tang Zheng's rapidly falling figure. His already injured body was hit hard again.
However, after being swept by this huge air wave, Tang Zheng's whereabouts finally slowed down greatly.
However, this was also the last struggle that Tang Zheng could do. He was like a rocket about to fall. Before the crash, he suddenly spurted downwards. The flames and high-speed airflow were shining, and escaped the tragic scene that was directly broken, but he could not escape the final fall.
"Pu" sounded, Tang Zheng's whole body shook again, and his eyes became dark. He was completely surrounded by the cold and turbulent river water. He was so dizzy that he was unable to control his body at all.
The only thing that made Tang Zheng glad was that after his efforts, the moment he fell into the water, the impact was much smaller than expected. Although the injury worsened again, fortunately, Tang Zheng did not faint because of this.
However, the crisis has not been resolved.
Tang Zheng, who fell into the river, only oxygen in his lungs was left, which could not allow him to hold on for too long. If he could not get rid of the turbulence at the bottom of the water as soon as possible and float to the surface of the water, he would soon suffocate to death at the bottom of the water.
In my ears, except for the undercurrents at the bottom of the water, it was as silent as the Nine Netherworlds.
In front of me, I couldn't even see a slight light, as if I had fallen into the boundless darkness.
Faced with this dangerous situation, Tang Zheng did not give up or panic. He endured the pain all over his body and circulated the small amount of star power left in his body. He swam quickly towards the water.
"Hu——" With the buoyancy of water, Tang Zheng finally floated to the water before exhausting all his strength and oxygen, and took a long breath.
At this moment, Tang Zheng felt for the first time that just being able to breathe again was such a happy thing.
It was not until this time that Tang Zheng had the opportunity to open the bag of things and took out the water-repellent droplets he bought when he was practicing star power control when he entered the bottom of the mountains and rivers and put them in the water.
With the water-retardant droplets, there is no need to worry about the danger of drowning for the time being, but at this time, Tang Zheng was almost exhausted, and was swept by the turbulent water flow and rushed downstream.
"Li Xiaoren said before that there is a big waterfall not far ahead of this tributary of Nulong River. If I could not escape before that, in my current state, once I was washed into the waterfall, I am afraid there will be only a dead end." Tang Zheng floated on the water surface, and was washed by the torrent, thinking about the next way to escape.
"The water flow speed is too fast, and there are cliffs on both sides. It is too difficult to return to the shore in this section of water. Only when the water flow speed increases will you have the opportunity to swim back to the shore." Tang Zheng observed the terrain and thought.
But soon he discovered that the further downstream, the greater the waterfall, perhaps because there was a large waterfall ahead, the water flow rate was still increasing.
Tang Zheng could already hear the huge sound of water from the waterfall, but he still couldn't find the opportunity to swim back to the shore. Whenever he wanted to swim to the shore, the turbulent water flow would always drive him back to the center of the tributary.
"No, I can't continue waiting. I don't have much time left for me." Tang Zheng used his cloud steps and tried hard to jump from the water surface, observing the environment of the entire tributary, hoping to find a way to get him out of danger.
Although the height of the treading cloud step in the torrent was very low, after several consecutive attempts, Tang found a small protrusion in the middle of the tributary not far away. When he looked carefully, it turned out to be a rock in the middle of the river.
Tang Zheng was delighted. Although the river center stone was still a little far away from him, it was still much closer than the shore. As long as he could swim above the river center stone, Tang Zheng could use the cloud steps to jump to the river center stone not far from the river center stone to avoid the danger of being rushed into the waterfall by the water flow.
"Go to the left, and to the left!" Tang Zheng gritted his teeth, leaned on his arm, and swam diagonally above the river center stone with difficulty.
Every time Tang Zheng scratched, the shoulder that was injured by gravel was touched and painful. Every time he took a big breath, the injury in his lungs also killed him. From time to time, the ground would splash and choke him with a big mouthful of muddy water.
Every time you work hard, you can get close to the ground, and there is only a slight distance. The next moment, a wave will come, and even the distance you get close to is turned into a bubble.
Under such a difficult situation, Tang Zheng even felt a sense of depressed feeling in his heart: "It's really not possible, I can't move anymore, the wound hurts too much, give up, anyway, work hard may not be able to survive, maybe it's easier to give up..."
But soon, Tang Zheng suppressed this depressed mood.
No, I haven't finished the purple gold yet!
No, I haven't made a name for myself yet!
No, I have never seen the scenery at the peak of martial arts!
No, I haven't been able to escape from my virginity yet!
...
There were still countless obsessions and wishes in his heart that had not been fulfilled. When he came to Xingyao Continent, he was betting on his dreams. How could he bear to die?
It has to be said that Tang is a greedy person, and greedy persons often live longer because he has to stick to the end and never give up halfway.
"Who am I? I am Tang Zheng who will never stop until he achieves his goal!" Tang Zheng kept roaring in his heart, roaring at the goals he had not achieved yet, roaring at the persistence of his past and present life, numbing himself forgot the pain, forgetting every effort can only get a little reward.
There is only the direction of progress in my eyes, and the only thing I care about is persistence.
One, two strokes, and in this way, Tang Zheng fell asleep like a severe insomnia patient relying on mechanical counting sheep to count the number of times he paddled to encourage himself to stick to the stone near the heart of the river.
Hard work pays off. It was not until Tang Zheng reached fifty-seven times that he swam near the river center stone as he wished and seized the opportunity at that moment.
Step into the clouds and start.
In a not-so-graceful position, Tang Zheng jumped up from the water and almost fell horizontally to the rock in the middle of the river. With his only remaining hand, he grabbed the life-saving stone. His fingers were almost embedded deep into the slippery stone, and finally escaped from the torrent.
This is probably the worst martial arts he has ever used since he has practiced the Cloud Step day and night in the past few days, but it is also the most successful martial arts he has ever used since he learned the Cloud Step.
Because this time, Tingyun Step really saved his life.
With his hands and feet climbed onto the rock in the middle of the river, Tang Zheng took out a fan dagger and inserted it directly into the rock in the middle of the river. Then he tied the other end to himself with a silk string, and then firmly fixed himself on the stone that was less than two meters wide, and then he lay softly on the stone, without caring about the splashes that were slapped on his face from time to time, and gasped in big mouthfuls.
He glanced at the waterfall that meant death, and was less than a hundred meters ahead of him. He raised his head, looked at the blue sky, and grinned.
