Chapter 298: Persistence is Victory

[First update, ask for tickets]

When Tang Zheng blasted out the extremely powerful Twofold Realm King Fist and collided with the huge column of water splashed by the boulder, the moment the two opposing forces collided, a huge wave of qi erupted, shaking Tang Zheng's rapidly falling body, and his already injured body was hit hard.

But after being swept up by this huge wave of qi, Tang Zheng's falling speed finally slowed down greatly.

However, this is also the last struggle that Tang Zheng can do, he is like a rocket that is about to fall, before it crashes, it suddenly spews out a section downward, the flames and high-speed air currents that return to the light, and escape the tragic scene of falling directly into pieces, but he can't escape the final fall.

"Poof-" With a bang, Tang Zheng's whole body was shocked again, his eyes were dark, and the whole person was completely surrounded by the cold and turbulent river, and the whole person was dizzy by the current, and he couldn't control his body at all.

The only thing that made Tang Zheng happy was that after his efforts, the moment he fell into the water, the impact force was much smaller than he imagined, although the injury was aggravated again, but fortunately, Tang Zheng did not faint because of this.

However, the crisis has not been resolved.

Tang Zheng, who fell into the river, only had oxygen left in his lungs, which could not allow him to support him for too long, if he couldn't get rid of the turbulence under the water and float to the surface, he would soon suffocate to death under the water.

In my ears, except for the sound of the undercurrent under the water, it was as dead as nine shades.

In front of me, I couldn't see even the slightest light, as if I had fallen into boundless darkness.

In the face of this dangerous situation, Tang Zheng did not give up, nor did he panic. Endured the pain all over his body, and used the little star power left in his body. Swim quickly towards the water.

"Whew-" With the buoyancy of the water, Tang Zheng finally ran out of all his strength and oxygen. Floated to the surface 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 only at this time that Tang Zheng had the opportunity to open the bag and take out the water-avoiding beads he had purchased in order to practice star power control at the bottom of the mountains and rivers and put them in the water.

There are water-repellent droplets. For the time being, there was no need to worry about the danger of drowning, but at this time, Tang Zheng was almost exhausted from tossing, and was carried by the turbulent current, rushing downstream.

"Li Xiaoren said before that there is a big waterfall not far in front of this tributary of the Nulong River, if you can't get out of danger before that, in my current state, once you are washed into the waterfall. I'm afraid there is only one dead end. Tang was floating on the water, washed up and down by the torrent, thinking about the next way to get out.

"The water is flowing too fast, and there are cliffs on both sides. It is too difficult to return to shore in this section of water, and you have to wait for the water to widen. Where the current slows down, there is a chance to swim back to shore. Don was observing the terrain. Pondered.

But soon he found out that the further downstream. It may be that there is a large waterfall in front of it, but the speed of the water is constantly increasing.

Tang Zheng could already hear the sound of the waterfall in the distance, but he still couldn't find a chance to swim back to the shore, and whenever he tried to swim to the shore, the turbulent water always drove him back to the center of the tributary.

"No, I can't wait any longer, I don't have much time left." Tang Zheng crept up from the water, observing the environment of the entire tributary, trying to find a way to get him out of danger.

Although in the rapids, the height at which the tiptoe step could make him jump was very low, but after several consecutive attempts, Tang Zheng found a small protrusion in the center of the tributary not far away, and when he took a closer look, it turned out to be a river heart stone.

Tang Zheng was happy in his heart, although the Jiangxin Stone was still some distance away from him, it was still much closer than the shore, as long as he could swim above the Jiangxin Stone, Tang Zheng could use the water to jump onto the Jiangxin Stone when the current brought him not far from the Jiangxin Stone, so as to avoid the danger of being washed into the waterfall by the current.

"A little to the left, a little more to the left!" Tang Zheng clenched his teeth, leaned on only one arm, and swam diagonally towards the top of the Jiangxin Stone with difficulty.

With every stroke, Tang Zheng's shoulder that was injured by the gravel was affected by severe pain, and every time he took a big breath, the injury to his lungs also killed him, splashing the ground from time to time, and choking him with a large mouthful of muddy water.

Every time I try, the distance that can get close to the ground is only a little bit, and the next moment a torrent rolls in, and even the distance that I was close to before is in vain.

In such a difficult situation, Tang Zheng's heart even swelled with a sense of depression: "It's really not good, I can't swim anymore, the wound is too painful, give up, I may not be able to survive if I work hard anyway, maybe I can give up a little easier......"

But soon, Tang Zheng suppressed this depressed feeling.

No, I haven't finished the purple gold yet!

No, I'm not famous yet!

No, I haven't seen the scenery of the peak of martial arts!

No, I haven't been able to get out of being a virgin yet!

……

In his heart, there are still countless obsessions and wishes that have not been fulfilled, when he comes to the Xingyao Continent, he is betting on his dreams, how can he be willing to die?

I have to say that Tang is a greedy person, and greedy people tend to live longer, because he gritted his teeth and persevered to the end, and would never give up halfway.

"Who am I, I am Tang Zheng who can't achieve his goal and won't give up!" Tang Zheng kept roaring in his heart, roaring at the goals he hadn't achieved yet, roaring at the persistence of his past and present lives, paralyzing himself and forgetting the pain, forgetting that every effort could 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 time, two times, just like a severe insomnia patient who relies on a mechanical sheep counting sheep to fall asleep, he is also counting the number of strokes he has made to motivate himself to stick to the vicinity of the river stone.

The hard work paid off, and it wasn't until Tang Zheng counted to fifty-seven times that he swam to the vicinity of the Jiangxin Stone as he wished, seizing the opportunity of that moment.

Tiptoe, start.

In an ungraceful posture, Tang Zheng jumped up from the current, almost horizontally and fell directly onto the river stone, and with the only remaining hand, he grabbed the life-saving stone, his fingers were almost deeply embedded in the slippery stone, and finally broke away from the rapids.

This is probably the worst martial art he has performed since he practiced tiptoeing day and night in the past few days, but it is also the most successful martial art he has performed since he learned to tiptoe.

Because this time, tiptoeing through the clouds, really saved his life.

Climbed onto the Jiangxin Stone with his hands and feet, Tang Zheng didn't say a word, took out a fan dagger and inserted it directly into the Jiangxin Stone, and then tied the other end to himself with a silk string, so he firmly fixed himself on this stone, which was only less than two meters wide, and then lay down on the stone softly, not caring about the splash that slapped on his face from time to time, and gasped for breath.

He squinted his eyes and glanced at the great waterfall that meant death, less than a hundred meters in front of him, tilted his head, looked at the blue sky, and grinned.
