Extraordinary Realm from Persuasion System

Chapter 444: Chapter 181: Accidental Meeting with a Sports Department Girl, Physically Confronting Nature!

2018, November 12, Sunday.

Yesterday, Zhang Beixing sought out Huo Honghao to express his intention to undertake the Heaven-Stealing version of Oizaki’s Eight Challenges.

Huo Honghao spent yesterday preparing and finally managed to get everything ready today.

WHIRRRRR—

Sitting in the aircraft of the Shishi military zone, listening to the roar of the propellers, Zhang Beixing felt quite intrigued. He had lived two lives, and this was the first time he had ever been in a helicopter. Moreover, his first helicopter ride had taken him to such a high altitude.

He glanced out the window at the boundless mountains and fields. Human constructions, their proud displays of technology and civilization, lay spread out below. But these, before the great nature that nurtures all things, appeared so tiny, pitiful, and helpless.

”Have we reached thousands of meters yet?”

Turning his head toward the cockpit, Zhang Beixing asked the pilot.

Hearing his question, the pilot glanced at the data on the dashboard display and replied, ”Instructor Zhang, we are currently at 5,741 meters. We will soon reach our limit of 6,000 meters.”

”I see.” Understanding the situation, Zhang Beixing looked out the window at the endless vista, lost in thought.

In his pursuit of stealing heaven’s secrets, he had made many modifications to ’Earth Awakening.’ Besides moving the location to within the Great Xia Realm, he had even increased the altitude from the original 3,000 meters to a staggering 6,000 meters.

It might have seemed like just double the height, but the risk factor had actually increased exponentially!

As everyone knows, the higher the altitude, the longer the fall, and thus the greater the impact force. Moreover, with increasing altitude, the instability of the endeavor also rose sharply.

People can miss a basketball shot from a few meters away. Heck, even when trying to aim carefully within a few steps, one might still pee crookedly. And Zhang Beixing was about to jump from an altitude of 6,000 meters, needing to land precisely in the Hidden Dragon Cave. The difficulty was truly imaginable!

For a moment, tension, curiosity, anticipation... all these emotions surged in Zhang Beixing’s heart, causing his body to instinctively secrete adrenaline and making him somewhat exhilarated.

Interesting, this is just too interesting! Such a thrilling challenge is what I need to steal fate and transcend!

Under Zhang Beixing’s eager gaze, the helicopter soon reached the extreme altitude of 6,000 meters and the predetermined jump point.

As the rear cabin door opened, a cold gust of wind blew in.

Feeling the rapid drop in temperature inside the cabin, Zhang Beixing exhaled a breath, white vapor billowing.

As everyone knows, after leaving the ground, the temperature drops by 6 degrees Celsius for every 1,000 meters ascended.

It was already November, after the start of winter, and the temperature in Shishi had been steadily dropping, now hovering around seventeen or eighteen degrees Celsius. Yet, here was Zhang Beixing, at an altitude of 6,000 meters. The temperature had plummeted to well below zero.

It was only because he was dressed relatively warmly and possessed a strong physical constitution that he could withstand it. Otherwise, an ordinary person hit by that cold wind would feel like they’d instantly become decades younger—shivering helplessly like a grandchild, their teeth chattering uncontrollably.

Unbuckling his seatbelt, Zhang Beixing stood up from his seat and walked toward the open rear hatch, bracing against the cold wind.

He glanced down past his feet at the void below, the drifting clouds, and the miniature towns far beneath. A peculiar mix of emotions stirred within him.

If he were to suddenly slip and fall from this height, even having surpassed human physical limits and achieved Breaking the Limit, he’d still be smashed into five or six pieces.

Zhang Beixing licked his wind-chapped lips. He tightly gripped the parachute backpack in his hand.

Then... To steal fate, you must first break!

Steeling his resolve, Zhang Beixing gave himself no time for second thoughts. He pulled down his goggles, and under the dumbfounded gaze of the support crewman behind him, he took a decisive step forward and leaped!

He’d come all this way! How could he not try? Success meant stealing fate, taking that first step into the transcendent!

The moment his feet left the plane, he lost all purchase. Instantly, an immense feeling of weightlessness enveloped Zhang Beixing. Terrifying gravity seized him, yanking him downwards!

WHOOSH WHOOSH WHOOSH—

The air roared past. Wind, like slicing blades, battered Zhang Beixing’s face, making it difficult even to breathe.

Under the intense pressure, his face contorted, and his mind grew groggy.

If it were anyone else, alone and under-equipped, they would undeniably be dead.

But who was Zhang Beixing? He was, to date, the only one known to have surpassed human physical limits.

Although the ferocious wind and crushing pressure were indeed uncomfortable, Zhang Beixing, as a Grandmaster, adapted almost instantly.

By this time, he had already fallen a thousand meters!

Gazing at the soft white clouds rushing up to meet him, Zhang Beixing felt no fear in his heart.

Recalling the experience just now, he felt nothing but exhilaration!

So this was stealing fate? Truly extraordinary!

Previously, when creating the Heaven and Earth Natural Technique, Zhang Beixing had also comprehended nature, even deeply. But this was an entirely different sensation! He had never before comprehended heaven and earth from such a perspective!
