The water is blue and clear, and from a distance, fish swimming in the sea can be clearly seen.

When he arrived at the beach, Chen Qiang discovered that the sea was just like a pool of stagnant water, with almost no fluctuations.

The most terrifying thing is that through the water, he can actually see the coral rocks and so on on the seabed.

"It is said that if the water is clear, there will be no fish. This sea water is really abnormal."

"But judging from the current situation, I should have passed the first level. Is this sea the second level that I need to face?"

The more Chen Qiang thought about it, the more he thought it was possible. Unfortunately, when he looked around, he saw an empty space. Except for the outline of the Fantasy City behind him, there was no human being at all.

"Does this level require crossing the sea? Otherwise, go back to Fantasy City and ask?" Chen Qiang was puzzled.

Just when he was about to walk back, he found that he could only go as far as where he woke up, and then he could no longer move forward. Instead, he could walk in both directions, or towards the seaside, without being affected at all.

Returning to the beach again, Chen Qiang gave it a try. Although his cultivation was still there and his Qi could move freely, he couldn't control the air, and he couldn't even walk normally on the sea.

"It's impossible to be in such a trap, so let me swim through it, right?"

Chen Qiang hesitated a little, but he had no choice but to carry Hu Xiaoyou on his back, and then swam over.

Just when he made up his mind and was ready to take action.

Suddenly, he saw a lonely boat sailing slowly towards the distant shore. This discovery really surprised him, and he quickly sped away in the direction of the boat.

Soon, he saw the small boat and an old man lying on the boat's board basking in the sun and sleeping at the bow.

"Huh?"

Chen Qiang was surprised to find that this old man was actually a monk. Although he was only in the Qi training period, he was indeed very different from the ordinary mortals in the fantasy city.

"Old man, old man?"

Chen Qiang called out twice tentatively, but unfortunately there was no response.

There was something weird everywhere in this place, and it was indeed rude to wake others up rashly. After thinking about it, Chen Qiang didn't forcefully wake him up, but waited quietly aside.

Here, there is only day and no night.

The most important thing is that Chen Qiang found that he had not received daily harvest experience for a long time.

For a moment, he couldn't tell whether it was caused by the shielding of this lost land or the time law of this space.

After all, he also discovered that although the swords in the "Record of Famous Swords" could still be used, the various information in the "Record of Famous Swords" could no longer be viewed.

This is something he has never encountered since he traveled through time.

Finally, I don’t know how long it took, the old man on the boat finally woke up and slowly opened his eyes.

Immediately, he discovered Chen Qiang.

Chen Qiang hurriedly greeted him, cupped his hands and said, "Old man, may I ask who you are..."

However, before he could finish speaking, the old man glanced at Chen Qiang and asked calmly: "Do you want to cross the sea?"

Chen Qiang nodded: "Well, I want to cross the sea. I wonder if the old man can take me."

The old man glanced at Chen Qiang and Hu Xiaoyou again, nodded, and said lightly: "Let's get on the boat."

With the old man's permission, Chen Qiang hugged Hu Xiaoyou and sat in the cabin. The old man didn't waste any more words. He swung the oar in his hand and drove the boat directly towards the sea.

Such a cold appearance made Chen Qiang feel embarrassed to ask a lot of questions.

After a while, he coughed lightly and asked tentatively: "Old man, what do you call me?"

The old man shook his head.

Chen Qiang asked again: "Can you tell me where this is? Or where are we going?"

The old man still shook his head.

Chen Qiang couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed, so he had to laugh and said: "Can't you say it? Then forget it."

Then, he closed his mouth and looked at the surrounding blue sea with concentration.

The old man never spoke, but rowed the oar silently, seeming to be enjoying this pleasant time.

Gradually, Chen Qiang discovered something extraordinary.

This small boat was always moving forward at a constant speed. If it weren't for the oars in the old man's hands that kept moving, Chen Qiang would have thought that he was still and still.

At the same time, the paddle in the old man's hand actually kept the same frequency without any deviation. It was simply miraculous.

Slowly, Chen Qiang realized something and his heart became clear.

That’s so!

After observing for a long time, Chen Qiang was shocked. He found that the old man's technique was very similar to the "Sword Sutra"!

However, the control ability displayed by this old man was far better than Chen Qiang's beginner's level of "Sword Classic". Suddenly, he had a feeling of enlightenment.

"Could it be said that this old man's "Sword Classic" is much more complete than what An Zhi obtained?"

Chen Qiang couldn't help but make a bold guess. At the same time, he discovered that when the old man paddled, there would be a trace of true energy oscillating, and when this true energy passed along the sea, even the ripples it made were exactly the same.

It is precisely this kind of vibration that is very similar to the scene when the "Sword Sutra" is running, except that the old man's control of the true energy is more precise.

Chen Qiang became excited.

He suddenly thought that if he could learn the old man's hand control, not only the utilization rate of his true energy would be greatly improved, but the power of the corresponding martial arts and supernatural powers would also be improved.

Especially when facing enemies in the future, as long as you don't use ultimate moves one after another, you may no longer have to worry about running out of energy.

More importantly, his skills may also be improved, which means that the increase in "Sword Sutra" will be increased!

As soon as he thought of it, Chen Qiang observed the old man's paddling movements more carefully and imitated them.

Buzz!——

However, after a long time, when Chen Qiang gradually figured it out and got started, there was a sudden roar in his mind, and then, the entire sea of ​​consciousness became extremely chaotic, as if it was about to explode.

"Um!"

Chen Qiang groaned and suppressed the discomfort. He had a feeling that as long as he could get through it, he could master it.

He gritted his teeth and let the cold sweat drip down his forehead. Even though he had a splitting headache and even felt that his soul was being torn apart, he persisted.

"puff!"

The next moment, Chen Qiang opened his mouth and spit out a mouthful of blood.

At the same time, the old man also showed a rare smile and said proactively for the first time: "You have successfully obtained the reward for the first level."

"The island in front of you is where your second level will start. Challenger, I wish you good luck!"

After that, under Chen Qiang's gaze, the old man's figure slowly disappeared.

The boat followed the inertia and stopped at the edge of a beach. Chen Qiang hugged Hu Xiaoyou and got off the boat, only to find that the unobstructed island was only half the size of a basketball court.

However, in the center of the island, there is a bridge that reaches straight into the sky, with no end as far as the eye can see.

There was a stone tablet at the head of the bridge. When Chen Qiang got closer, he saw that it read:
Chapter completed!
