Chapter 649 - 420: Crisis Warning from the Abyss_2
A thousand meters down is already terrifying,
what does the deepest part of the Mariana Trench at ten thousand meters look like?
Ordinary people can’t even imagine it.
Actually, if Wang Ye hadn’t evolved his bones into diamond, he wouldn’t be able to withstand such pressure now either, but with the increased bone strength, he can now easily withstand the pressure of the deepest part of the Mariana Trench, and even if the pressure were to increase tenfold, he could barely endure it.
But putting aside this bug that is Wang Ye,
currently, only manned submersibles can allow ordinary humans to freely explore the Mariana Trench.
One could say that exploring the Mariana Trench is almost as challenging as exploring another planet. Because to dive to depths of over ten thousand meters, all the equipment needs to be as advanced as that of astronauts.
At this moment, Wang Ye finally felt a trace of pressure, but it was just a trace.
This pressure was like carrying something not heavy on his body.
It would only make him a bit uncomfortable but not strained.
Upon reaching here, the light from the outside world was almost nonexistent.
You could only see darkness all around.
As the audience in the livestream started to complain.
The screen suddenly lit up again.
From a level where you couldn’t see your hand in front of your face,
it changed to a visibility of about two meters.
[Huh, how did it suddenly get brighter?]
[Did Wang Ye bring a light?]
[What kind of light is so bright?]
[You missed the key point, man. What kind of light can withstand this pressure?]
[Indeed, but since the action camera can withstand the pressure, the light he brought should be able to as well, right?]
[But I don’t remember Wang Ye wearing a headlamp earlier, could it be that he just took it out?]
[That’s the only possibility...]
[Wang Ye is so considerate for us, it’s really touching...]
......
......
What the livestream audience didn’t know was that Wang Ye hadn’t brought any headlamp.
The light illuminating the surrounding area was merely the Human Body Glow emitted from Wang Ye’s body.
Several months ago, when his Life Energy reached a certain level, he had already developed a Human Body Glow comparable to an incandescent lamp. Now his strength has multiplied countless times, and as Life Energy reached an unfathomable depth, the intensity of the Human Body Glow naturally became much stronger.
If Wang Ye wanted, this glow could even serve as an attack method, as he can now concentrate the Human Body Glow at a point, with brightness comparable to a flashbang, causing severe burns to an enemy’s retina.
But this attack method doesn’t suit Wang Ye’s style, so he seldom uses this ability in combat.
The current brightness was emitted under his deliberate suppression.
If he were to completely remove the restraint,
not just two meters,
the area around ten meters, or even a hundred meters, would be illuminated.
Many deep-sea fish would even be blinded by the flash.
At the same time, the sea water would quickly heat up, cooking some of the small fish and shrimp in the vicinity.
But correspondingly, this brightness from Wang Ye would also attract numerous fish, including small fish and predators.
The principle is similar to the anglerfish’s little lure lamp. In the completely dark deep sea, creatures are highly sensitive to light sources; they may mistake such light sources for the glimmer of an escape route or signals from their kind.
Thus, they are drawn to approach the light source involuntarily, even if the light may be dangerous.
It’s simply like moths to the flame, but in the seabed version.
Wang Ye did not mind the increasing number of small fish and shrimp around him.
He continued to move swiftly towards the deeper parts of the ocean.
As water pressure increased, his diving speed also dropped from the earlier subsonic to a speed of three to four hundred kilometers per hour.
Under the continuous glow from Wang Ye, the scenery of the seabed was perfectly displayed to the audience in the livestream room.
Although it cannot be described as stunningly beautiful, the diverse deep-sea fish and various plankton-like scenes fascinated them anew.
They kept capturing and saving screenshots, posting them on their social media platforms, which attracted more viewers to join.
In no time, the number of people online in the livestream room skyrocketed to millions.
Among them were many first-time viewers of Wang Ye’s stream.
Actually, every live stream by Wang Ye would attract new fans.
With Earth’s population over seven billion, there will always be some who haven’t heard of him,
and this group constitutes a potential market.
More commercial value can continuously be unearthed.
Upon joining the livestream room and seeing the beautiful underwater scenery on the screen, many couldn’t help but comment in the barrage:
[This is so interesting.]
[Is this what the scenery thousands of meters underwater looks like?]
[Why have I never seen photos like this before?]
[No kidding, this depth reaches the extreme limits of professional exploration teams. Generally, people who come to this depth are engaged in research and don’t have the energy to take photos for you.]
[Only Wang Ye would stream and share the scenery while taking on challenges.]
[Touching.]
[I always look forward to Wang Ye taking us on virtual trips.]
[Sigh, compared like this, my life is really too mundane, Wang Ye’s life is so exciting.]
[Can’t say it like that, every stage has its scenery. The scenery around us might not be any less exciting than renowned sights. We just don’t appreciate the beauty.]
[Well said.]
[Indeed, and we can still see the scenery Wang Ye experiences through the livestream. Isn’t that a kind of luck?]
......
......
At this moment, Wang Ye has dived to a depth of three thousand meters,
arriving at this depth,
the pressure reached a level that even Wang Ye found somewhat challenging.
The action camera on his chest was already showing signs of malfunction.
Its casing was also showing some cracks.
Wang Ye had to summon more Primordial Qi to envelop the surface of the action camera, blocking the external pressure, but since Primordial Qi is ultimately immaterial, it cannot completely isolate pressure. No matter how much he tried, he could only block ninety-nine percent of the pressure.
"Hope this thing can last a bit longer..."
As time passed, Wang Ye’s depth increased from three thousand meters to five thousand meters.
Then from five thousand meters to eight thousand meters.
The surrounding pressure became increasingly immense, and Wang Ye’s swimming speed also slowed down gradually.
Finally, he felt a noticeable sense of pain in his body.
The outermost layer of his cells and body tissues began being rapidly crushed and extinguished, but they also quickly healed and recovered.
Wang Ye wasn’t too concerned about these injuries; as long as they didn’t harm his bones, internal organs, and brain, they didn’t count as injuries to him.
But what worried Wang Ye was the action camera on his chest.
By now, the action camera already malfunctioned. Even the livestream feed showed static, similar to the snow on an old TV screen.
The audience immediately realized this was due to the excessive water pressure causing issues with the camera. Most waterproof action cameras have a depth limit of fifty meters.
Even the most advanced ones wouldn’t exceed a hundred meters. The fact that Wang Ye’s depth reached several thousand meters speaks volumes about the camera’s quality.
Just as Wang Ye planned to summon more Primordial Qi to protect the camera,
suddenly.
His crisis anticipation heightened abruptly.
Wang Ye’s pupils slightly contracted as he felt a twinge of unease.
Before he could ponder over the source of this unease,
suddenly.
Intense underwater turbulence ensued from a thousand meters to the right.
Rumbling!!!!
