C38 Down All
He was not facing upwards, but was instead facing downwards. His body had completely sunk into the wooden bucket.
Kong Yuheng was shocked. What was Young Master Jiang doing? Was he trying to kill himself?
But if he was going to kill himself, there was no need to do all this!
Just as he was thinking this, he suddenly felt the light in the room dim. He raised his head and saw that it was actually floating in the air. The black stone had absorbed all the light emitted by the lights in the room.
He was astonished! He could sense that the temperature in the area had suddenly risen, and an even hotter aura was being emitted from within the black rock.
Kong Yuheng felt sweat pouring out of his body when he was exposed to this aura. It was as if he was in a sweat steamer.
However, the heat was even more unbearable. In an instant, it was as if flames were igniting within his body, and his entire person was like a goat being roasted over a bonfire.
Kong Yuheng's hands trembled as he retreated two steps back. He leaned against the wall and sat down on a chair.
His clothes were nearly soaked through, and the sweat on his forehead made his eyes blur. He could even smell the stench of his own sweat.
"Gulp!" "Gulp!"
The water in the big wooden bucket had started to boil and steam was rising from inside the house. With the light emitted by the Medicinal Jade, the room became extremely blurry.
Kong Yuheng panted heavily. This place was much harder to endure than the sweat steamer. The sweat steamer was still within the range of the human body's endurance range, but the heat here was almost suffocating.
Kong Yuheng felt hot air coming out of his mouth and nose. If Jiang Chen didn't tell him to stay, he would have opened the door and ran out.
However, he had to obey Jiang Chen's words. Even if he died from the heat, it would be considered as repaying Jiang Chen for his kindness.
Kong Yuheng's consciousness gradually became blurry, but he soon regained consciousness. He then sunk back into a blurry state, but very quickly, he regained consciousness as if he was pulled by some kind of force.
As he repeated this process, his clothes were drenched in sweat.
The temperature in the room was still very good, but after Kong Yuheng had woken up who knows how many times, he noticed that the fog in the room had started to dissipate.
The black stone floating above the wooden bucket slowly stopped glowing as well.
Is it going to end? Kong Yuheng thought as he saw layers of black patterns appear on the surface of the barrel.
Although it was called a pattern, it actually seemed more like some ancient language. It was similar to hieroglyphs, oracle bone texts, and other similar characters were all very small. They lined up tightly on the surface of the wooden barrel, continuously flowing like liquid.
With the scene from before as a backdrop, Kong Yuheng wasn't that surprised anymore.
A new world had opened in front of his eyes, and the cognitive changes brought by Jiang Chen had already begun.
Previously, he only knew that Young Master Jiang was second young master Jiang Family, had an illustrious status, and had a very good character. But now, he understood that Jiang Chen was not only second young master Jiang Family, he was also a very mysterious person.
No matter what he saw, it was definitely something beyond the imagination of ordinary people.
While Kong Yuheng was thinking about this, he saw the small black characters on the surface of the barrel start to move towards life. It was actually swimming towards the barrel with all its might.
The Medicinal Jade floating above the wooden bucket also began to emit a golden light, the light forming a barrier, blocking the small black words from invading.
The two forces clashed inside and outside the wooden barrel like two armies clashing against each other in front of a battle formation.
Even though Kong Yuheng was a few meters away, he could feel a pressure eroding his body.
His body was upright and pressed against the back of the chair. The surface of his skin felt extremely uncomfortable, as if it was being pressured by air.
What was Young Master Jiang doing? It was something ordinary people could not understand. If he did not know Young Master Jiang, it would be hard for him to see it once in his life!
The golden light emitted by the Medicinal Jade became even brighter, and even the walls of the house became covered with a layer of golden light.2
Those little black words began to slowly melt within the golden light. Like a liquid that had been evaporated by heat, those little black words began to turn into mist.
The mist was quickly melted by the golden light, leaving only a patch of golden light in the air.
As the pressure decreased, Kong Yuheng felt that his breathing became a lot smoother. His body relaxed because the pressure disappeared all of a sudden.
The Medicinal Jade floating above the wooden bucket gradually stopped glowing, and the temperature inside the house also gradually returned to normal.
With a "Hua la" sound, Jiang Chen returned to his normal state from standing upside down in the water. After pulling the bathrobe that was already prepared, he put it on and waved his hand to retrieve the Medicinal Jade.
The Medicinal Jade had shrunk in size by at least a circle. When it was held in his hand before, one of his hands could only hold half of it.
"Hu …!"
Jiang Chen breathed out a mouthful of turbid air and felt his body lighten a lot.
However, the forbidden technique on its body was not completely broken, it had only broken a third of it. If he wanted to completely break it, just relying on the effects of the Medicinal Jade might not be enough.
"Young Master Jiang, you … "It's alright!"
Kong Yuheng hurriedly asked when he saw Jiang Chen in a daze.
After all this, half of his life was gone, not to mention that Jiang Chen had been inside for so long.
A normal person holding his breath underwater for even a minute is his limit. Even the most outstanding athlete, in a motionless state, can only hold his breath for five to six minutes at most. But Jiang Chen was actually holding his breath in there for almost an hour.
"It's nothing. I haven't moved my muscles in a long time. I can't calm down. Call someone to clean up here!" You should take a bath as well! "
As Jiang Chen said this, he walked out with Kong Yuheng and arrived at the indoor swimming pool.
Jiang Chen had a strong smell of traditional Chinese medicine, while Kong Yuheng had the smell of sweat.
The two of them took a shower before entering the pool together to soak.
Although the water in the pool wasn't as good as the real spring water, it was still barely enough.
"Old Kong, what doubts do you have?" You are one of the people closest to me, so there are some things that I can tell you. "
Jiang Chen had long seen through Kong Yuheng's doubts, but due to the relationship between the two of them, he didn't dare to ask.
"Young Master Jiang, I'm a bit confused. It's already the limit for a normal person to hold their breath in the water for four to five minutes, but you held your breath for so long and nothing happened. This is simply beyond my imagination."
"There are many things in this world that are beyond your imagination. I am not holding my breath, I am breathing in a different way."
Jiang Chen said.
"Another breathing exercise?" Young Master Jiang, do you have any other breathing method in this world other than breathing through your mouth and nose? "
Kong Yuheng was surprised, this was the first time he heard someone say this.
There are, for example, fetal breaths. Before a person was born, his body would use the Breath Technique when he was inside the mother's body, but after leaving the mother's body, due to the change in the environment outside, he would breathe with his nose and mouth. For example, there are many animals in this world who can breathe with their cheeks, breath with their lungs, or even breathe with their skin.
"I know that, but if a human can use their skin or their cheeks, they wouldn't be sea animals. And like you said, they only use their breath when they're in the mother's body." I know that, but if humans can use their skin or their cheeks, they can't be sea animals.
