Chapter 60 Black Water

Thirty-six months in the dream, one hundred and eight days in the real world.

Three years have passed.

In the shallow bay of the Blackwater River.

A black carp is sneaking around.

It is more than six feet long, with jade-like green scales all over its body, which seems to be shining. Its body is tightly stretched under the scales, like a bow with full strings, and it exudes a sense of power from the inside out.

An extremely powerful sense of power!

It seems that under the scales, it is not fat, but muscles like dragons.

In fact, it has both!

In this shallow water bend, the size of the black carp is already huge, and no predator dares to provoke it. All fish can only become its hunting targets.

But it is still sneaky, looking around, and only moves after confirming that it is safe, and swims freely in this shallow bay.

"Ka Ka Ka!"

It flicks its tail and flies out like an arrow from a string, rushing to the riverbed and biting a large river clam.

That's right, it bites!

Ordinary black carps only have pharyngeal teeth and cannot tear their prey apart, they can only swallow and crush them.

But this black carp has sharp teeth, just like sharks.

He bit the river clam in one bite, and crushed its shell with a few clicks. Then he put his head into the clam shell and began to enjoy the plump and sweet clam meat.

It was indeed plump and sweet. After becoming a fish, his taste seemed to have changed. The clam meat, which was very fishy to ordinary people, was actually very sweet to him, and it was a very suitable appetizer before dinner.

After a few clicks, the clam meat went down his stomach, and the black carp swam out of the clam shell, with a little light shining between his teeth.

Looking closely, it turned out to be a pearl, the pearl bred in the river clam.

"Crack, crack, crack!"

The black carp held the pearl in his mouth, and without any nonsense, he chewed it and crushed it with a few clicks and swallowed it into his stomach.

Then, he patted his belly/chest with his fins and continued to swim and hunt in the bay.

…

Three years, not long, not short.

During these three years, Xu Yang's body size has grown from less than three inches to more than six feet.

It can be said that he has been reborn and turned upside down.

Black carp is a fish with a relatively slow growth rate. In just three years, it has grown from three inches to six feet, which is equivalent to a child of five, six or seven years old. In just a few months, it has grown into a little giant two or three meters tall.

It is very exaggerated.

But when you look at the skill column, it is very reasonable.

In addition to the "muddy water dragon" characteristic supported by the main body at the beginning, and the "Taoism" skill specially delivered some time ago, Xu Yang has been diligent in the past three years and has practiced several skill characteristics.

Needless to say, breathing and sleeping are old acquaintances.

The focus is on eating!

Eat a cow a day, like to replenish the shape, big fish eat small fish.

Eat a cow a day, this characteristic Xu Yang's main body also has, including low-level characteristics such as "digestion", "chewing" and "unblocked", the ability to digest and chew is enhanced, and the defecation is unblocked, never distressed.

Like to replenish the shape is a skill characteristic newly refreshed by Xu Yang. The effect is as the name suggests, that is, like to replenish the shape, what you eat replenishes what.

Eating crustaceans such as shrimps, crabs, snails, etc. can effectively improve the strength of scales. Eating different types of fish can also obtain different types of enhancements. Xu Yang's sharp teeth are eaten by eating sharp-toothed carnivorous fish such as pomfret, catfish and black fish.

Not only fish, anything he eats and can digest can have the effect of "like cures like".

For example, the pearl he just used to eat can whiten and nourish his fish scales, increase strength, and slightly enhance the blood and qi in his body.

With this, Xu Yang evolved a little and became a "different" herring!

As for the last big fish eating small fish, it is a characteristic that affects combat.

Big fish eat small fish, small fish eat shrimp!

When the body size is larger than the opponent, all abilities will be improved, including but not limited to strength, speed, physical strength, nerve reaction, life recovery, scale armor protection, etc.

In short, as long as you are larger than the opponent, your abilities will be comprehensively improved.

But... only limited to fish and aquatic creatures such as shrimps, crabs, turtles, and turtles, and an underwater environment is required.

If the opponent is not a fish, or an aquatic creature such as shrimps, crabs, turtles, and turtles, and the battlefield is not in the water but on land, then "big fish eat small fish" will lose its effect.

There are many restrictions.

But these restrictions cannot erase its value, but instead show its strength and preciousness.

Xu Yang has personally experimented with it. This "big fish eats small fish" feature can currently improve a whole level of physical training.

That's right, the physical training level!

After a year, Xu Yang used himself as a blueprint, constantly experimented and revised, and finally created a martial arts technique suitable for "fish" physiques and focused on horizontal training, named "Fish Dragon Transformation".

Because the time was too short, and there was only himself to refer to, and the data was insufficient, so the Fish Dragon Transformation technique currently only introduced three training levels.

They are the Qi and Blood Realm corresponding to the Internal Force Realm, the Skin and Flesh Realm corresponding to the True Qi Realm, and the Muscle and Bones Realm corresponding to the True Gang Realm.

Practicing this "Fish Dragon Transformation" technique also allowed Xu Yang to brush out his martial arts skills and gain two new features - Fish Dragon Transformation, external training of muscles and bones.

Fish Dragon Transformation can improve the training effect of "Fish Dragon Transformation" and gradually transform the "fish body" into a dragon body.

That's right, turn into a dragon!

When creating the Fish Dragon Transformation, Xu Yang referred to the meaning of "Dragon Subduing Palm" to subdue the dragon.

Dragon Subduing Palm, subdue the dragon in oneself, master the power of oneself, so as to be reborn and reach the ultimate realm of martial arts.

Fish Dragon Transformation, with this as the core concept, also subdues oneself, masters oneself, controls the evolution of the body, and finally the fish turns into a dragon.

According to Xu Yang's idea, as long as the Fish Dragon Transformation continues to improve and he persists in practicing, it is definitely possible to turn the fish into a dragon in the end. Even if it does not become a real dragon, it can become a fish dragon, a dragon, or other dragon-like beasts.

Now, the martial arts skill brushed out the characteristics of "Fish Dragon Transformation", which is more in line with his idea.

If we keep doing this, we will eventually be able to transform from a fish into a dragon!

Compared to the transformation of the fish into a dragon, the other characteristic of "external training of muscles and bones" is not so eye-catching, and can only improve the effect of "training the body".

But it is also satisfactory, but better than nothing.

It is with the help of these skills and characteristics, coupled with the "fish dragon transformation" technique he created, that Xu Yang was able to transform from a malnourished, three-inch-long small black fish to a six-foot-long, strong, green-scaled jade armor, and sharp teeth in just three years.

Not to mention that in this shallow bay where there are no big fish, even if he enters the Black Water River where there are many big fish and water monsters, he can be regarded as a top person...fish!

Yes, the Black Water River!

Although as a fish, Xu Yang cannot communicate with the outside world, but by chance, he poked his head out of the water to check the situation, and heard a few passers-by talking on the shore, and learned the name of this river.

This river is called Black Water!

When he first heard the name, Xu Yang was shocked and even a little panicked.

Blackwater River, there seems to be a Blackwater River in Journey to the West!

Could it be the same river?

This time he actually traveled to the world of Journey to the West where gods and Buddhas were everywhere?

Are you kidding?

Xu Yang was a little shocked, but he soon calmed down, carefully explored, and finally found out...

It should just be the same name.

This Blackwater River is not the Blackwater River in Journey to the West.

Because he has been running in the river for more than a year, and he has not seen any shrimp soldiers and crab generals, let alone the second-generation playboy little crocodile who occupied people's caves, robbed people's daughters, and insisted on eating Tang Monk's flesh.

So, it can be basically confirmed that the two rivers are just the same name.

After confirming that it is not Journey to the West, Xu Yang was relieved and began to explore the Blackwater River step by step.

First of all, the river can be divided into three areas, namely the outermost shallow bay, the deep water area in the middle and inner layers, and the deepest layer, which is also the real "black water" black water area.

Shallow Bay is a normal water area with normal fish. At most, some big fish come from deep water from time to time, but it is not too exaggerated.

The deep water area is different. The river water has begun to turn black. There are a lot of strange fish and even water monsters in the water. The competition is very fierce. Many big fish fight and die in it every day.

Xu Yang finds it difficult to understand this.

The world of wild animals is very simple, not as complicated as humans. There are basically only two purposes for wild animals to fight each other. First, hunting for survival, and second, courting for continuation.

Apart from this, there are few things that can make wild animals fight and fight at the risk of being injured and killed.

But the situation in the deep water area breaks common sense.

Those big fish fight fiercely in the deep water area, neither for hunting nor for courting.

Why is that?

Xu Yang couldn't explain it clearly, but he had a feeling that these big fish were like poisonous insects raised by people. They fought each other under the urging of a certain will and a certain factor to improve and evolve.

Xu Yang believed in his feelings very much.

Therefore, he can be sure that the water of the Black Water River is not only black, but also extremely deep!

After the deep water area, there is the Black Water Area defined by him as a "forbidden zone".

The river water in that area has completely turned black and is as thick as paste, giving people a very dangerous feeling.

Xu Yang has never entered this area so far.

After all, he is only in the first stage of physical training, and he can't even deal with the strange beasts and water monsters in the deep water area. How can he enter this unfathomable and terrifying Black Water Area?

Not to mention entering, it is difficult to even approach, because the periphery of the Black Water Area is full of powerful water monsters in the deep water area, top overlords, as if the black water is of great benefit to them, entrenched there and unwilling to leave.

The last time Xu Yang went there, he wanted to check the situation, but he was bitten by a big fat catfish entrenched there, and his back was almost cut open.
