I Am A Prodigy

Chapter 431 - Whirlpool in the Waterfall Lake

431 Whirlpool in the Waterfall Lake

Ye Lingchen lifted his head from the deep part of the whirlpool and made an OK gesture to everyone in the program group. Then, he pretended to take a deep breath and dived into the water without hesitation!

The waterfall lake became calm and the situation Ye Lingchen was in could only be seen through the live broadcast.

By instinct, everyone inhaled sharply when they laid eyes on the live stream and their complexions darkened ever so slightly.

At that moment, Ye Lingchen was nowhere to be seen in the live broadcast. All they saw was what Ye Lingchen saw. The waterfall lake was very clear, much clearer than everyone imagined. If it were not for the surrounding waves, it would not affect their vision at all.

Moreover, the number of fish was simply astronomical in number. Those who did not know anything would think that they had entered an underwater world. Countless fish swam past and they all looked exceptionally robust.

However, what shocked everyone was the depth of that pond. At a glance, it looked like a bottomless abyss that seemed to have no end in sight.

[F*ck me! God Ye is too courageous! He’s even brave enough to go down!]

[God Ye, don’t try to show off. Go back quickly!]

[Have any of you noticed God Ye’s way of swimming? It’s amazing, he’s just like a swimming fish. It only takes one look to know that he’s a master swimmer.]

[What a beauty! This pool is no different to an underwater world. Never would it cross my mind that there will be such a magical place.]

[These fish are obviously getting jumpy. Whatever’s happening under the water is no doubt unusual.]

...

Life’s Struggles had turned into an adventure, but its popularity increased tremendously and there was a continuous barrage on the bullet screen.

However, everyone from the program crew was clearly not bothered about the popularity. They watched the live broadcast nervously and anxiously.

“He can’t keep going down anymore! How long can he hold his breath!” Zhao Liangying nearly cried due to anxiousness when she looked at Ye Lingchen going deeper with no signs of turning back.

“It’s too dangerous underwater and he doesn’t have an oxygen tank either. I should’ve stopped him!” Hu Yue’er’s face was also showing signs of distress as she bit her red lips.

He Jia comforted them, “Since God Ye is so certain of himself, then there shouldn’t be a problem. We have to trust him.”

“Yes, I remember the world record for holding one’s breath underwater is twenty-two minutes. Since God Ye knows Chinese Kungfu, he’ll definitely be able to hold his breath for a significant amount of time,” Huang Lei said.

“Twenty-two minutes?!” Everyone was surprised. “Really?”

“It’s in the Guinness Book of Records, so it must be true,” Huang Lei said.

“I hope Lingchen can hold his breath even longer.” Hu Yue’er and Zhao Liangying breathed a sigh of relief. If there were people who could hold their breath for more than 20 minutes, Ye Lingchen should be able to hold his breath for a very long time too.

Somehow or other, their hearts had acknowledged Ye Lingchen as an omnipotent existence.

However, everyone—including those who were watching the live broadcast—was on edge when Ye Lingchen’s dived in.

The waterfall lake was so big that it could no longer be categorized as a pond. Most lakes did not even reach that kind of size. At that moment, Ye Lingchen had already dived to a considerable depth, but the end had yet to be seen. There were no obstacles around him either, and the bottom of the waterfall lake seemed to be boundless.

Ye Lingchen looked around in the water and his gaze was soon fixed in one direction. The fish there swam in an even more panicky manner and a large number of fish rushed out from there. Through Fish Language, Ye Lingchen confirmed that the purported Old Tortoise was there.

Ye Lingchen did not hesitate at all. He swayed slightly before continuing to swim in there.

There was actually a huge cave entrance, and the panicked shoal of fish bumped against Ye Lingchen’s body before fleeing in all directions.

[F*CK! I’ve lived for so long, but I’ve never seen so many fishes before!]

[There’s plenty of fish here! We’ll get rich if we catch them all and sell them!]

[No wonder there were no fish in the streams of the entire Green Grass Village. They’re all gathered here!]

[He definitely shouldn’t go into that cave. All these fish are clearly swimming for their lives!]

[F*ck! God Ye isn’t planning to continue swimming into the cave, is he? It’s been ten minutes!]

...

The huge shoal of fish blew the audience’s mind in the live broadcast. Even if they were stupid, they knew that something was happening under the water, and those with claustrophobia did not even dare to look directly at it.

The next moment, Ye Lingchen—instead of turning back—actually swam against the shoal of fish and entered the cave!

It was a huge cave, but a great number of fish continued to crash into Ye Lingchen. The sheer number of fish was all too clear to see.

With a length of about 20 meters, Ye Lingchen reached the other end of the cave in five minutes. Prior to getting a clear look at the situation, an intense foreboding made his hair stand on end.

Before he could even give it any thought, his body retreated in an abnormal fashion, then continued to swim back into the cave again!

Anyone who swam before knew that retreating was only possible if one turned around by first turning one’s head. However, Ye Lingchen retreated very naturally, almost as easily as taking a step backward on land.

Whoa!

The next second, a huge shadow streaked across the place where he was just moments ago, and the huge force formed a powerful shockwave, stirring up the water all around him. A large number of fish were startled and began swimming in all directions!

[F*ck! F*ck! F*ck! What was that just now?!]

[A water monster! It’s definitely a water monster! I knew there were monsters at the bottom of this pond!]

[A shocking discovery! This is too awesome!]

[Swim! Swim as fast as you can, God Ye!]

[F*ck, I was so scared that I wet my pants. Seriously, what was that just now? It’s too frightening!]

...

Although the shadow appeared for only a brief moment, the shock it brought to everyone was indescribable and the entire live broadcast was sent into a frenzy.

The bullet screen blew up for a moment and everyone’s brain tingled as they trembled all over.

Everyone in the program group was horrified. They felt uneasy when they realized there was probably a huge monster at the bottom of that pool.

Hu Yue’er and Zhao Liangying covered their mouths with their hands and nearly screamed. Their eyes turned red at once.

Just when everyone thought that Ye Lingchen would retreat, he rushed forward all of a sudden and soldiered on!

Boom, boom, boom!

A muffled noise came from above. Ye Lingchen looked up and saw that the surface of the water was just half-a-meter above his head!

He never expected there to be a subterranean lake under the waterfall lake. His eyes lit up and he popped his head out from the water to look straight at the roar!

One look caused his pupils to contract dramatically. It was an incredibly shocking sight, even for a person like him!

Above the subterranean lake was a karst cave, which was considered a patch of land inside the water. Grotesque rocks were aplenty and it was dark and wet. He could not help but marvel at nature’s amazing work of art.

Deep in that karst cave were two huge figures fighting each other—the huge Old Tortoise and a giant python!

Old Tortoise had a heavy shell on its back. At almost three meters in height, it was almost as tall as a one-story building. The length of the giant python was more than twice as long as the anaconda earlier and was nearly ten meters in length!
