Chapter 328 Entering the water dragon
[Ding! Waves broken 1000km, Wave Breaking Skill Proficiency +1! (100/100)]
[Ding! Congratulations, host! Your Wave Breaker skill proficiency has reached maximum. This skill has evolved into—Water Dragon!]
While Cangnian was hunting third-tier evolved creatures in the sea, a system notification sounded in his mind.
"Huh? The Wave Breaking skill has evolved?"
Cang Nian was taken aback at first, then overjoyed!
Back in his original habitat, his fifth-tier Wave-Treading skill had already evolved into the sixth-tier Wave-Breaking skill.
However, once they begin migrating, they no longer have the opportunity to swim.
Therefore, the skill chain of swimming comes to an abrupt end in terms of improving proficiency.
But once you arrive at the peninsula and the beach, there are plenty of opportunities to swim.
Moreover, swimming in the ocean is much more efficient than swimming in a river.
Similar to humans, tigers have the fastest diving speed of all swimming styles.
The team has been at the seaside for a full two weeks now.
Whether it was deliberately practicing swimming skills or unintentionally hunting in the sea, Cangnian's skill in breaking waves steadily improved.
In its original habitat, Cangnian had already accumulated a lot of proficiency in the Wave Breaking skill. With the intentional and unintentional training every day over the past half month, it has accumulated enough proficiency to evolve the skill.
As the system notification sound faded, Cang Nian felt his limbs become stronger and more powerful, and his body shape became more streamlined.
However, compared to the Wind Riding skill evolving into the Wind Following Tiger skill, the Wave Breaking skill evolving into the Water Dragon skill provides a much smaller boost to the physical body.
However, this does not mean that the swimming skill chain is inferior when evolving from a sixth-tier skill to a seventh-tier skill.
On the contrary, Cangnian felt at this moment that he had a natural affinity and resonance with the surrounding seawater!
Similar to the Wind Follows the Tiger skill, I can now control the water flow and make it work for me!
The water flow is no longer a resistance during swimming, but rather a source of power!
"The best part is that I can now stay in the water without holding my breath!"
Just a few days ago I was envious of Ermaitai because he could breathe underwater.
Now I can do it too, what a twist of fate!
Feeling the sensation of breathing freely in the water, Cang Nian felt extremely refreshed.
Having the ability to breathe underwater means that he no longer needs to surface for air.
In addition, this also means that he can balance the air pressure between his body and the external deep water like a fish, and can dive into deeper ocean areas.
You should know that in the past two weeks of ocean hunting, he has lost count of how many times he has been outmaneuvered by his prey because he was unable to dive deeper into the sea.
Although tigers are excellent swimmers, the ocean is ultimately the domain of marine evolutionary organisms.
The second-level overlimit burst has a very long cooldown.
To prepare for potential crises, Cangnian almost never uses his second-gear overlimit burst to chase prey during hunts.
His usual methods consist of a single-level burst attack with only an hour's cooldown and the ability to freely use free attributes.
However, after evolving from the sixth-tier Extermination skill to the seventh-tier Serving the Tiger, he tried many combinations of Serving the Tiger.
Unfortunately, only three cougars can be made now, and the cougars of Cang Nian have been replaced time and time again.
The three cougars are now all third-tier marine evolved creatures, which Cang Nian is quite satisfied with.
One is a sea turtle, whose special ability can inflict negative effects on targets. Cang Nian's favorite is its slowing effect. Combined with his own numerical manipulation, even the fastest marine evolved creatures can be made as slow as snails and easily caught up by him.
However, this ghost's total usage time of two and a half hours is almost over, and it will no longer be usable after that.
The second one is an octopus, which has an extremely strong paralyzing toxin. Its long tentacles can instantly paralyze a target when they touch it.
The third one has just expired, and Cangnian is considering finding one to fill the gap so it won't be empty.
"Now that I have the Water Dragon skill, I can go hunting in more distant seas on my own!"
Even deep-sea creatures can't escape my grasp!
After the initial excitement, Cang Nian's mind became active again.
Originally, it wasn't impossible for him to hunt in more distant seas.
However, the little sable's importance in the hunting team is irreplaceable.
Without the sable's storage space and the ability to use a portal to move prey ashore, hunting efficiency would be greatly reduced.
Before the Cangnian era, if they went hunting in more distant seas, they would have to carry or haul the carcasses they hunted back themselves.
In that case, it would be better to hunt in coastal areas.
But now, with the Water Dragon skill, Cangnian can manipulate the water flow, carrying his prey and making it follow him.
That way, even if we encounter more prey, we can bring it back.
Cang Nian just tried it out, and it doesn't require much spiritual power; it's like an instinct.
Without hesitation, Cang Nian swam alone in a direction far from the coastline.
This didn't surprise either the tiger parents or Yichen and the others on the shore.
Cang Nian often leaves the group to exercise.
……
"Wow! Just the base speed attribute alone, that should be around 300 kilometers per hour, right?"
After leaving the hunting party, Cangnian tested his maximum speed in the sea.
The result made him very satisfied.
Although the Water Dragon skill makes the water flow an aid rather than a resistance, it does not mean that the weight of the seawater itself does not exist.
Therefore, the speed limit in seawater is much smaller than that on land.
Most third-order evolved creatures in the ocean have a maximum speed of only one or two hundred kilometers per hour.
The maximum speed that Cangnian could reach in water before was similar to this, basically enough to catch up with most evolved creatures.
However, there are still some incredibly fast marine creatures that can reach speeds of over 300 kilometers per hour!
Although my current basic attribute maximum speed is probably still a bit slower than these evolved creatures.
But when combined with the Freedom attribute skill, its speed in the ocean is virtually unmatched!
"Huh? There's a strong smell of blood... Could there be some large-scale battle ahead?"
At this moment, Cang Nian suddenly twitched the tip of his nose twice, and then guessed.
Originally, Cang Nian, who needed to hold his breath underwater, couldn't even open his nostrils. When he dived underwater, he could only bar his upper teeth to block his nostrils, let alone smell the seawater.
But now, the Water Dragon skill has freed his breathing. Although he doesn't know the principle behind it, which prevents him from choking on water, he can indeed smell the water.
"Never mind, let's go take a look. The smell of blood is so strong... we might find a great bargain!"
After a moment's thought, Cang Nian swam toward the direction from which the smell of blood was coming.
He's determined to join in the fun!
