Chapter 648 - 420: Crisis Warning from the Ocean Depths

[Challenging free diving to the deepest part of the Mariana Trench without any equipment?]

[Ha, that’s interesting.]

[It’s not just interesting, it’s absolutely ridiculous!]

[Not to mention how to withstand the water pressure.]

[Wang Ye doesn’t even have an oxygen tank on him, does he plan to dive without oxygen?]

[I believe his body strength is very high right now, but as a living organism, he still needs oxygen for metabolism, right? And the stronger the organism, the more oxygen it needs. Large carnivores take in several times more oxygen than humans with each breath!]

[Wang Ye’s oxygen intake should also be several times or even dozens of times ours!]

[I could believe he can hold his breath for ten or twenty minutes, but diving to the depths of the Mariana Trench would take at least a few hours, right? How does he manage to hold his breath for several hours?]

As the number of online viewers in the live stream grew, the arguments in the bullet comments also became increasingly intense.

Wang Ye smiled and said:

"Calm down, haven’t my brothers and I created enough records?"

"The water pressure coming up will be too great, and if I take out my phone, it will be crushed instantly, so I can’t keep checking the live stream comments. Meanwhile, let’s quietly enjoy the view of the Mariana Trench’s depths together."

With that said,

he reattached the action camera to his chest and jumped straight into the sea.

Blub...

From the action camera footage, countless bubbles could be seen spewing from Wang Ye’s nostrils. This was some leftover carbon dioxide from his body.

After expelling the gas, Wang Ye’s body began to gradually sink. He flexed and adjusted his posture agilely in the water, assumed the breaststroke position, and started swimming toward the ocean floor.

Whoosh!!!

With a powerful kick of his legs, a milky white mist formed in the seawater behind him.

He rocketed forward like a missile.

In an instant, he shot tens of meters ahead.

Wang Ye’s arms and legs became blurred shadows of rapid movement, propelling his body through the water at high speed. Under the pull of gravity, his speed easily reached eight to nine hundred kilometers per hour.

In just two seconds, he reached a depth of four hundred meters, breaking the global diving depth limit.

However, there was no depth display in the live stream, so the audience didn’t know Wang Ye’s speed or how deep he had gone.

The viewers in the live chat could only see the scenes rapidly passing by. Countless seawater was turned into milky white mist as it collided with Wang Ye’s body.

Even though the light around him was dimming and the picture was becoming less clear, they could still feel how astonishing Wang Ye’s speed was!

[Isn’t this speed way too fast!]

[He’s swimming breaststroke this fast, did he install rocket thrusters on his feet?]

[This is just like a fish in water.]

[Fish: You’re kidding, I can’t swim that fast.]

[Honestly, Wang Ye’s speed is definitely faster than a fish. The fastest swimming fish in the world is only 190 kilometers per hour, and Wang Ye’s speed, conservatively estimated, would be at least 500 kilometers per hour!]

[Not just that...]

[I reckon he’s almost going supersonic.]

[Supersonic swimming, is that even possible?]

[It’s much harder to achieve supersonic speed underwater than on land!]

[The resistance at the seabed is much higher than air resistance, so if he can speed up to such a rate underwater, he should be able to easily go supersonic on land.]

[Wow, supersonic running?]

[Are you serious?]

[Um...]

[Isn’t this something that only happens in superhero movies?]

[This guy... was he hiding it from us all along?]

·························

·························

At this moment, Wang Ye, unable to check the bullet comments on his phone,

didn’t realize that his hidden abilities were already being gradually uncovered by netizens.

Upon reaching a depth of five hundred meters, far beyond the human limit,

Wang Ye still felt no discomfort at all,

the surrounding water pressure to him was like a feather falling on his back.

Not a bit of pressure.

As we know, every ten meters underwater, the pressure increases by one atmospheric unit.

When a normal person reaches a depth of one hundred meters, their lung volume would be compressed to a tenth, requiring high-pressure gas to sustain life.

Additionally, symptoms of nitrogen narcosis would emerge, nitrogen causing neurological disturbances under high partial pressures akin to intoxication, leading to a loss of judgment.

Simultaneously, the body would suffer bruising or even more severe injuries from high pressure, and without professional training, one would die instantly at such a depth.

Yet Wang Ye’s anaerobic metabolism completely avoided this issue; he didn’t need to breathe, and the external pressure was easily withstood by his physical strength.

Maintaining this speed, he dove straight down to one thousand meters below the sea!

The pressure at this depth was equivalent to a hydraulic press.

Here, an ordinary person’s body fluids would boil instantly under such pressure, likely compressing to a density close to solid form, rupturing cell membranes, and damaging the three-dimensional structure of enzymes and proteins, halting metabolism.

Most critically, an ordinary person’s bones would be pulverized instantly under this pressure. That is to say, unprotected, one would die instantaneously without question. Even with protective suits, the most advanced technologies today cannot ensure normal bodily function; only manned submersibles can isolate the pressure.
