I can bless thousands of magical powers.

Chapter 185 Water Control
At the end of the secret passage, Zhang Yuan quietly dived into the cold water.

He was wearing a black water jacket. The moment he entered the water, he was like a big black fish hunting, diving deeper into the water in an instant.

In a moment, Zhang Yuan was already in the long river with turbulent undercurrents!
The flood and rainy season has not yet ended, and the continuous strong winds and heavy rains have caused the water in this wide river to continue to surge.

Even experienced fishermen would never dare to go down to the river at this time of year.

Those who accidentally fall into the river are often carried onto the rocks by the surging current in an instant.

Shattered!

However, the roaring Changtian River like a dragon only added a bit of adventure to Zhang Yuan, who was endowed with the mysterious power of water.

Sometimes he dived to the pitch-dark river bottom, sometimes he swam upstream to fight against the rapids, and sometimes he went under the reefs to explore...

The worse the water conditions, the stronger Zhang Yuan's swimming ability becomes!
But he was not content with just swimming in the river.

A group of big fish caught Zhang Yuan's attention.

In fact, Zhang Yuan did not see their existence, because the river water was mixed with a large amount of mud and sand, which made his special vision in the water ineffective.

However, the mysterious nature of water gave Zhang Yuan even more miraculous abilities.

With the help of the river water everywhere around him, he can keenly sense the existence of things within a certain range.

Fish of all sizes are most likely to trigger Zhang Yuan's ability!
Without thinking, he swam towards the group of big fish.

The fish are swimming upstream.

There are as many as seventy or eighty of them, the big ones are six or seven feet long, and the small ones are two or three feet long, so the scale they form is quite spectacular.

Zhang Yuan had never encountered such a "huge" school of fish before!
It was as if there was a dragon gate ahead that could transform them, forcing these big fish to fight the undercurrent with all their might.

It also gave Zhang Yuan the opportunity to hunt.

He dived to the back of the school of fish and locked onto the last big fish.

With Zhang Yuan's current swimming proficiency and strength, dealing with such prey would be a piece of cake.

But he did not take action directly. He just followed the big fish, keeping a distance of about ten feet.

This big fish with a green back and a white belly had no idea that the evil star was coming from behind.

It was trying hard to follow the large group in front to avoid being swept away by the undercurrent.

However, at this time, the river water around the big fish underwent subtle changes, which was different from the normal rapids.

In just a few moments, the ignorant big fish found that it could no longer catch up with the school of fish.

It was like being trapped in an invisible cage and could not break free no matter how hard it tried.

The big fish instinctively felt fear and began to struggle desperately.

As a result, the cage that imprisoned it became tighter and tighter until it was tied up inside.

The next moment, a hand grabbed its head.

With a burst of strength from his palm, the poor fish was able to escape.

Sacrifice!

Zhang Yuan felt quite pleased as he watched the big fish in his hand turn into ashes and disappear without a trace.

The method he just used on the big fish was the water control ability derived from the water element!

Although Zhang Yuan's use and control of this ability is still at a very low level.

The distance range and strength are very limited. It is no problem to control a fish in the water, but it is obviously not enough to use it to deal with an enemy, even a first-level Ming Jin warrior.

But Zhang Yuan believes that as his strength increases and he continues to explore and discover the extraordinary abilities of the white dragon loach.

I believe there is still a lot of room for improvement in this special ability!
He chased the school of fish in front of him, methodically tying up and killing one big fish after another.

Then sacrifice in exchange for source material.

Although these big fish can only provide a small amount of essence, the quantity is considerable and the accumulation of a small amount can still be satisfying.

As for the source material obtained, it was all given to the Red-Eyed Crow as usual.

Encourage him to be promoted to the third level as soon as possible.

Only when the last big fish disappeared quietly did Zhang Yuan return to the secret passage with satisfaction, thus ending today's underwater training.

In recent days, he has deliberately set aside a lot of time to dive into the Changtian River.

On the one hand, it is hunting for source materials, and on the other hand, it is practicing water control ability.

In fact, fighting against the rapids in the river can also have a good effect on physical training and increase the flexibility of the body.

It can be said that it kills three birds with one stone.

And only Zhang Yuan can use this kind of training method.

It is only limited to the consumption of Qi and blood, and the time cannot be too long, otherwise the effect will be better.

After returning home through the secret passage, Zhang Yuan took off his fish-skin tanned jacket and changed into a set of loose and comfortable clothes.

At this time, the rain outside became lighter and the drizzle lingered.

Zhang Yuan brought a charcoal stove and placed it under the eaves. He boiled water and made tea while quietly appreciating the scenery in the distance.

The majestic and steep Taiwu Mountain is shrouded in misty rain, with only a few fragments visible.

"Brother Zhao!"

Suddenly, a voice called out from outside the courtyard gate: "Are you home?"

Zhang Yuan frowned, put down the teacup in his hand, stood up and opened the door.

Standing at the door was Old Man Kou.

Zhang Yuan asked, "What's the matter?"

Old man Kou, wearing a cape, nodded and smiled as he replied, "Nothing much, I just felt bored staying at home, so I came to visit you. I wonder if it's convenient for you, little brother?"

To be honest, Zhang Yuan admired the other party's shamelessness.

After a little thought, he nodded.

The main reason was that Zhang Yuan was in a good mood today, and every time Old Man Kou came to visit, he would always bring some news.

In fact, this was the third time that Old Man Kou came to visit Zhang Yuan’s house after the gate was repaired.

It was not until now that Zhang Yuan understood why this old guy could survive in a place like Xishanji.

Although he is old and poor, he is quite well-informed.

Old Man Kou is fully aware of many recent events inside and outside Xiaxu.

I don't know where he got the information from.

But with such a channel, others will not easily cause trouble for him.

After all, there is nothing to be squeezed out of Old Man Kou's old bones!
This may be the way for the little people at the bottom of society to survive.

After sitting down, Zhang Yuan poured him a cup of hot tea.

Old Man Kou took a sip with great satisfaction and praised, "Brother Zhao, your tea is delicious!"

Of course it tastes good.

The tea was the top-grade Yunwu tea purchased at Xiaxu, at fifty taels of silver per pound, with no discount.

The water used to make tea comes from a nearby mountain spring.

Zhang Yuan smiled and said, "Tell me, what's the latest news?"

Old Man Kou held the teacup in his hand and quickly replied, "First of all, the flood and rainy season will be over in five days."

Zhang Yuan was slightly stunned.

Is this almost the end?
He has now become accustomed to this season of heavy and continuous rain.

But it’s also a good thing that the flood and rainy season is over.

Otherwise, if you continue like this, you will get moldy all over.
