Extraordinary Realm from Persuasion System-Chapter 461 - 184: Postnatal Five Qi, A Realm Above the Great Grandmaster!

He was drenched like a drowned rat, but Zhang Beixing was not annoyed. Just then, he had grasped the key. The feeling of walking on level ground in that instant was definitely not an illusion; he had truly stood on the water for a moment!

What did I just do? Recalling his recent actions, Zhang Beixing pondered what subconscious move he had made to create such an incredible situation. However, after a moment of contemplation, he came up empty. After all, walking on water wasn’t something science could explain. Since science couldn’t explain it, Zhang Beixing could only start with himself.

At this moment, Huo Honghao also finished chatting with the military officer from Nanyun Province and was ready to hit the road. Thinking Zhang Beixing was still by the lakeside, Huo Honghao turned his head and called out, "Little brother Zhang, we’re about to set up camp at an outpost ten kilometers away. Coming with us?"

Zhang Beixing had just begun to figure something out. At this critical moment of breakthrough, how could he delay it? He immediately shook his head. "No, you go ahead. I’ll practice a bit more and follow afterward."

"Alright!" Huo Honghao didn’t say much else upon hearing Zhang Beixing’s words. He simply took out a small black cube from his pocket and tossed it to Zhang Beixing. "Little brother Zhang, this is our signal device. Connect it to our military phone, and you’ll be able to see our location in real-time. Later, just follow our location to find us."

"Okay!" Zhang Beixing replied, catching the signal device Huo Honghao threw and tucking it into his backpack by the lake.

Upon seeing Zhang Beixing secure the signal device, Huo Honghao nodded and then led the troops deep into the forest.

After they had left, Zhang Beixing sat and thought for a while. That sensation a moment ago was really strange. It was undeniably real, but now, he couldn’t induce it no matter what he tried, nor could he figure it out. It was as if only when he took action that such a change might be inadvertently triggered.

Could this be my opportunity to break through to the Transcendent? Zhang Beixing’s brow furrowed. Leveraging a flip to get up from the ground, he looked at the lake, its surface rippling from his previous actions, and decided to take further action to test its truth.

So, he stepped forward and planted his foot on the surface. This time, Zhang Beixing didn’t hurry to follow through. Instead, he rested his foot on the water for a moment. After realizing there were no abnormalities, he proceeded to place his other foot on it too.

SPLASH!

The muffled sound of him falling into the water echoed. It was unclear if Zhang Beixing had moved too slowly or if his conscious mind had been too assertive. This time, no change occurred. Clearly, Zhang Beixing realized this as well: walking on water was entirely instinctual.

Thus, after clambering out of the water, he frowned at the lake’s surface. Then, without any warning, before he could even catch his breath, he lifted his leg and stepped onto the water.

This time, Zhang Beixing vividly felt that for an instant, as his legs submerged, it was as if he were standing on solid ground. Almost at that very moment, Zhang Beixing’s focus sharpened, and he carefully sensed the change in his legs.

He discovered that in that instant, an inexplicable force surged from within his legs, creating an utterly unique ’field’ that wrapped around them.

Zhang Beixing wanted to discover more, but the sensation was like sand slipping through his fingers, vanishing in a flash.

SPLASH—

The dull sound of impact with the water broke the silence. The cold lake water enveloped Zhang Beixing, flooding his ears and nostrils.

BLUB—

HA-HUH—

Breaking the surface and spewing out lake water, Zhang Beixing took a deep breath, swam to the lake’s edge, and climbed out.

A cold wind blew past him. Even with Zhang Beixing’s physical conditioning, being soaked to the bone made feeling the chill inevitable. But no matter how cold it was at that moment, it couldn’t douse the fire in Zhang Beixing’s heart.

"I’ve found it! I’ve finally found it!" Zhang Beixing murmured excitedly. He finally knew the method that allowed him to stand on water without sinking: it was an unknown field of force emanating from within his body! Now that he knew the cause, the rest should be easy. All he had to do was continue searching to find out why this field of force had emerged!

With this thought, Zhang Beixing was full of energy. He didn’t hesitate to step forward again. Just like before, he completely relaxed, followed his instincts, and didn’t deliberately observe the changes occurring in his body. Not until the sensation of his foot landing solidly transmitted up from its sole did Zhang Beixing’s attention fully engage, allowing him to intently observe his legs.

Carefully sensing the state of his legs and his blood flow, he discovered that the reason the field of force covered and wrapped around his legs lay in several points on them.

But time was too limited; Zhang Beixing couldn’t remember all of them at once. He could only try over and over, committing the distribution of these points to memory. 𝐟𝕣𝕖𝐞𝐰𝕖𝚋𝐧𝗼𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝗰𝐨𝐦

Recalling the arrangement of these points, Zhang Beixing felt that they seemed familiar, as if he had seen them somewhere before.
