Rebirth of The Deer and the Cauldron, Wei Xiaobao Becomes a God

At this time, they were already more than 300 meters underwater, and the stone wall that revealed the aura of the formation was also very close.

【ding dong】

[I have discovered an incomplete S-level formation. Can the host tell me if he has cracked it?]

"Cracked"

[Cracked successfully, the host's territory value remaining is 10.5 points]

Ripples appeared in the water on the stone wall in front, and a big bubble suddenly appeared. Wei Xiaobao walked in towards the bubble.

There was still a vast expanse of water inside, but Wei Xiaobao could clearly feel that this was a vast ocean. The water pressure around was almost the same as that of Tianchi Lake. He guessed that this place was probably also 300 meters deep under the water.

The difference is that the water temperature here is about ten degrees, not as icy as the water in Tianchi.

Wei Xiaobao used his divine sense to investigate and found that there was nothing else under the water except fish. Of course, the sunfish was among them. It seemed that the sunfish in Tianchi must have swam over from the flaw in this incomplete formation.

Wei Xiaobao swam hard towards the surface of the water and soon emerged. As he had been relying on Qi to maintain the oxygen supply in his body for a long time, when he came out of the water, he took a few deep breaths of the fresh air with the salty taste of the sea breeze and felt refreshed all over!

There was a stretch of land ahead, with several fishing boats moored around. Wei Xiaobao flashed, jumped out of the water, and landed steadily on a nearby fishing boat.

The fishing boat belonged to a middle-aged couple of the Korean ethnic group. When they saw someone suddenly falling from the sky, they thought they had encountered a ferocious pirate. They were terrified and quickly knelt down to beg for mercy, shouting repeatedly: "Sir, spare my life, Sir, spare my life!"

"Get up quickly and don't panic. I just happened to pass by here." Wei Xiaobao gently comforted them while slowly removing the faint Qi shield around him. After the shield dissipated, he asked the two people again: "Excuse me, uncle and aunt, where exactly is this place?"

The couple was a little nervous at first, but seeing Wei Xiaobao's sincere words and gentle attitude, they gradually let down their guard, stood up and replied respectfully: "Sir, this is the mouth of the Tumen River."

The Tumen River, this magnificent river, is the third largest river in China after the Yangtze River and the Yellow River. It is 525 kilometers long. However, fate has played tricks on people. This great river, which was originally in the inland of China, was occupied by Russia in the north and Goryeo in the south at its last 15 kilometers of estuary. As a result, the long 510 kilometers of the Tumen River basin belonged to China, and the humiliating short 15 kilometers became the eternal pain and tears of the Tumen River.

In the long river of history, the estuary of the Tumen River was once a place where the Jurchen people of China lived. However, since the 15th century, the situation has changed suddenly. The Goryeo Dynasty was respectful to the Ming Dynasty on the surface, calling it the big brother suzerain, but undercurrents were surging behind the scenes.

They sent troops to exterminate and expel the Jurchens, and expanded their territory northward like a hungry wolf. This land, which originally belonged to the Jurchens, was gradually eaten up, and the vast area south of the Tumen River was not spared. In the end, the seaport fell into the hands of the Lee Dynasty of Goryeo.

From the middle of the 15th century to the end of the 18th century, the Goryeo Dynasty established six important towns along the south bank of the Tumen River, namely Huining, Funing, Zhongcheng, Wencheng, Qingyuan and Qingxing. This eventually led to the situation in which the Tumen River, Changbai Mountain and Yalu River separated China and Goryeo.

As the only channel for China to enter the Sea of ​​Japan, the strategic significance of Tumen River is self-evident.

However, it is sad that from 1858 to 1860, under the threat of force from Tsarist Russia, the Qing government was forced to sign the Treaty of Aihui and the Treaty of Beijing, which resulted in the coastal areas of the Tumen River estuary being ceded to Russia, which meant that China lost its precious right to access the sea.

Although the relationship between China, Russia and Goryeo improved to a certain extent over time, the access to the sea was still strictly restricted, and only Chinese fishing boats under 300 tons were allowed to pass.

This restriction has undoubtedly become a bottleneck restricting the development of the entire Northeast China region.

Wei Xiaobao knew the humiliation and pain of this period of history, and he secretly made up his mind that such a tragedy must not be repeated again. He was determined to change all this, to fight for more rights and interests for China, and to restore the dignity that had been lost. In his heart, a great plan was brewing...

In order to avoid causing an uproar, Wei Xiaobao did not use the "Ten Steps of the Divine Form" to speed across the sea. Instead, he took out a golden leaf from his arms, handed it to the boatman, and asked the boatman to take him safely to the shore.

The couple was grateful to Dai for bringing Wei Xiaobao ashore.

After going ashore, Wei Xiaobao circled around the mouth of the Tumen River again and again.

This place is still desolate and bleak. Apart from a few small fishing villages, there is almost no trace of human habitation, let alone any trace of formations.

Wei Xiao also couldn't understand. The Tianchi Lake in Changbai Mountain is 4800 meters above sea level. It was said that the source of the Tumen River is the Tianchi Lake in Changbai Mountain. There is such a big drop and such a long distance from the Tianchi Lake to the estuary. Why did he use space formations to build a passage?

Unable to figure it out, Wei Xiaobao had to give up the search and prepared to go home to Tianchi Lake in Changbai Mountain.

The straight-line distance between the Tumen River estuary and Tianchi is more than 300 kilometers.

According to Wei Xiaobao's current speed of 420 kilometers per hour, he can reach his destination smoothly in less than an hour.

Thinking of this, Wei Xiaobao did not delay any longer and immediately performed the "Ten Divine Steps", rushing towards the direction of Tianchi Lake in Changbai Mountain like a meteor.

Su Quan and the other four had been waiting on the ice surface of Tianchi for a long time. From early morning to noon the next day, the ice hole froze over a dozen times, and they had also smashed it open over a dozen times.

If they had not firmly believed that Wei Xiaobao was a skilled martial artist and had extraordinary courage, they would have probably jumped into the Tianchi Lake to look for him.

Just as the five people were standing on the ice at a loss, Wei Xiaobao suddenly rushed from the top of the mountain to the surface of Tianchi Lake, which scared the four girls.

"Brother Xiaobao, you clearly entered through the water, so how did you run out of the mountain? Can you perform magic?" Princess Lingzhao put aside her previous worries when she saw Wei Xiaobao and asked curiously.

"Xiaobao, your aura seems to have become stronger." Su Quan also looked puzzled and asked.
