"Do cruise ships always sail on the sea without encountering any danger?"
Xue Jing pondered before asking.
Whether it was intuition or soething else, he couldn't stop thinking about Ning Fengwan's remark that "this ship feels like it's going to have an accident," and ended up asking an extra question about it.
After all, this wasn't the relatively peaceful and normal world of his previous life on Earth.
Phenona of intersecting boundaries weren't exclusive to the land; on this planet, where over 70% of the surface is ocean, there were plenty of intersecting boundaries in the sea, not fewer than on land.
Chen Liang, the head of security, heard this and replied with a laugh:
"It's normal for you to have such concerns... but please rest assured."
"Although the ocean is too wide and deep for us to set up a 'Border City defense line' like on land to keep all creatures from intersecting boundaries outside, we can still block the vast majority. Our Zhuxia navy is incredibly strong, I can assure you of that as a retired naval officer."
"Sea-dwelling species generally have one trait: the bigger they are, the stronger they are, and vice versa... The larger sea-dwelling species cannot bypass the navy's defensive line, so even if so do invade our waters, they're usually very weak, with few exceptions, and pose no threat to the cruise ship."
Xue Jing raised an eyebrow, "Few exceptions, so there are exceptions?"
Chen Liang laughed heartily, "That kind of situation is very rare, even smaller than the odds of winning a ten-million-dollar jackpot, we won't be that unlucky, ahahaha."
...
At dusk, the sound of the ship's horn echoed across the dock as the Infinite Nova slowly left the port, steering along its predetermined course.
From his balcony on the 22nd-floor suite, Xue Jing stood blowing in the briny sea breeze, slowly practicing the Armor Shaking Skill.
The rocking of the ship and the uneven terrain didn't affect him in the slightest, one complicated and difficult movent after another, coupled with advanced breathing skills, he hamred and vibrated his muscles throughout his body.
Today, he practiced the Flesh Training aspect of the Armor Shaking Skill, while also exercising his spleen.
The spleen is associated with flesh; when the spleen is strong, the flesh becos firm.
Simultaneously, in the concepts of Ancient dicine and the Taoist Sect, the spleen and flesh correspond to the 'mouth' among the five senses, associated specifically with the sense of touch.
As he continued to practice, Xue Jing could feel his skin becoming even more sensitive.
He gleaned many details from the sea breeze brushing against him.
Temperature, wind direction, humidity...
Although he couldn't pinpoint these to a 0.1-degree accuracy like a weather forecast, he definitely perceived them vaguely.
By the end of a set of Armor Shaking Skill, Xue Jing slowly concluded the session, calming his breathing and quelling the tingling pain in his muscles.
"Training the spleen makes one's sense of touch increasingly sharp... According to my master, the spleen is the most crucial 'Yellow Grannie' among the five organs, in charge of regulating the balance of relationships between all five organs. As long as the spleen is strong, the other organs are unlikely to have problems,"
"If I could learn a hand of the Taoist Sect's 'Yellow Grannie Skill'... the world's premier organ-nourishing thod, I wonder what the effects would be when mastered,"
Xue Jing thought to himself.
He took out his Nebulizer Inhaler, poured the Dragon Thunder Powder into it, donned the oxygen mask, pressed the start button, and began to practice the breathing skills while inhaling the dicinal mist.
special
Ti passed unknowingly, and when he opened his eyes again, the Nebulizer Inhaler was empty.

[Hidden Dragon Vigor upgraded to Lv6 (121/7000)]
Xue Jing's body trembled, and from all over his body, faint dragon chants emanated, expressing joy and excitent. The surface of his skin rippled like waves.
The Hidden Dragon Vigor, a special skill with experience requirents on the sa level as [Visualization True], had finally advanced another level.
Xue Jing closed his eyes for inward observation.
Within his body, a True Dragon purely generated from Energy frolicked freely.
Whenever it reached the high of its joy, dragon chants followed, and his body sounded like a stirred river, emitting a turbulent and surging muffled roar.
"It's grown."
Xue Jing observed the increasingly playful and vivid True Dragon, thinking to himself.
After reaching level six, its body had grown considerably, symbolizing an even mightier and more impressive power.
Moreover, the details of its bodily features had beco clearer and more distinct, and the movents it displayed grew more and more like those of a living creature rather than an abstract consciousness entity ford by power.
On his whim, the True Dragon imdiately followed his command, road the grand river within him, and surged toward his arm.
"Huff—"
He threw a punch, the edge of his fist slicing through the air, creating a white wave, followed by a dragon chant, the white wave strangely morphing into the rough shape of a true dragon, with its head at the forefront of his fist.
It was as if he had punched the True Dragon out from within his body.
No, it would be more accurate to say that he did punch it out.
At the end of that punch, the white wave-ford dragon actually detached from his fist and howled as it flew forward.
"Crack—"
A few ters away, the balcony railing was hit by the dragon-shaped Qi Force, leaving behind a dragon head-shaped indentation.
Xue Jing was taken aback and mused thoughtfully.
If it were subjected to physics in reality, he clearly hadn't reached the level where he could punch the air with enough force to emit a destructive 'vacuum punch.'
Thus, this was likely yet another manifestation of 'spirit affecting one's reality.'
As Hidden Dragon Vigor leveled up and the True Dragon within beca more lively, it turned 'Power,' a formless entity, into 'Qi Force' with a physical presence.
"Interesting."
Delighted by the discovery, Xue Jing imdiately engaged in Consciousness Simulation.
Innurable pixel blocks ford a virtual 'Infinite Nova,' and opposite the balcony, another Xue Jing appeared.
