Chapter 595: Chapter 393: 40,000 Meters of Freefall!!! (Part 2)
[Tiger and Leopard Thunder Sound!]
[No way, can meditation also produce the Tiger and Leopard Thunder Sound?]
[Isn’t that a phenomenon that only comes from Horizontal Training Skill?]
[The air twisted with just one breath, damn!]
[His breath must be hundreds of degrees Celsius, right?]
[Maybe it’s possible, if his body temperature wasn’t high, how could he maintain normal vital signs in such a cold environment?]
At this moment, Wang Ye was not concerned with the debate in the live chat,
Instead, he was observing his own body,
He discovered that after practicing the Creation Skill once at high altitude,
he actually had a different experience than usual,
The Primordial Qi here seemed to be ten times denser than on the ground, and its purity was very high too,
Wang Ye thought carefully and speculated that it might be because the proximity to the Sun and the lack of living organisms here.
After this practice, the unit amount of Primordial Qi in his body increased by several thousand units, and its purity increased from 95% to 95.2%, with the 0.2% impurity turning into turbid Qi, which he exhaled.
"Indeed, occasionally challenging extreme sports is beneficial."
Wang Ye murmured softly.
He didn’t expect that at his level, challenging extreme sports could still bring surprises.
He glanced around at the surrounding scenery, his eyes slightly dazed.
Unknowingly, he had ascended to over ten thousand meters.
Although he had the ability to ascend, he rarely came to this height,
so it was his first time seeing the view at over ten thousand meters.
"The UV rays here should bring me more abundant energy."
Thinking of this, Wang Ye slowly extended his right arm,
Immediately, the scorching rays bathed his skin,
as if flames were roasting it.
The online viewers and host wanted to stop him,
but they saw that Wang Ye’s skin showed no signs of sunburn under such UV exposure.
The host was stunned for a moment seeing this, but his professionalism made him quickly recover and he hurriedly explained:
"Incredible!! Wang Ye actually extended his hand! The UV rays at over ten thousand meters can sunburn a person in ten seconds! I wonder if you have seen videos shot on the Tibetan Plateau, where Tibetan residents, even at just two thousand meters above sea level, need to cover their faces with a layer of sunscreen mask to prevent UV damage!"
"And those long-distance cycling streamers entering Tibet, after just two months of cycling in Tibet, they return looking like ’primitives’, the damage from UV rays needs no mentioning!"
"And now, the altitude Wang Ye is at is over ten thousand meters! The UV here is lethal enough, like a microwave, enough to burn someone, but Wang Ye extended his arm out of the helium balloon without any burn marks, has Wang Ye’s skin been trained to be stronger than metal?"
At this moment, Wang Ye on the helium balloon, extended for over ten seconds, then retracted his arm, though the energy provided by UV rays was immense, it had no practical significance for him now, as he only needed large amounts of energy when using fermentation metabolism.
So he sat back in his seat, assuming a "Meditation" posture, and continued to practice the Creation Skill.
This action left the live audience and host at a loss for words, hoping he was finally going to interact with them, but he just felt the sunlight and went back to meditating.
··························
··························
About an hour later.
After a long wait,
the surrounding environment grew increasingly harsh.
The host’s explanation let all viewers in the live stream grasp what altitude meant.
Therefore everyone was very tense.
Environment at ten thousand meters was deadly enough,
but now Wang Ye’s altitude had reached thirty thousand meters, why was he still not showing signs of discomfort?
Even a frown would suffice!
One must know that the temperature here had reached minus ninety degrees, though not absolute zero, it is extremely inhumane, even the coldest poles of the world aren’t this extreme.
The oxygen content here was down to 0.02, almost no effective oxygen to intake, meaning Wang Ye was essentially holding his breath here, just like underwater.
Yet on screen, Wang Ye continued meditating, breathing steadily, seeming no different than on the ground.
The host had to switch the live feed to the helium balloon’s external camera,
At this altitude, the atmosphere thinned drastically, the pressure around 0.25% of the ground, nearing vacuum, the sky now showed a space-like blackness. In such an environment, the sky’s brightness was very low, nearly akin to space, allowing a celestial view.
The scenery was truly stunning, looking around, one could see the curvature of the horizon, the edge of the Earth faintly glowed with a weak azure hue, a remnant of Rayleigh scattering.
As the live audience was captivated by the beauty of the landscape,
they also marveled at Wang Ye’s robust physique.
With online viewers exceeding over a billion,
many experts from various fields were present,
from all over the world,
engaging in professional discussions in various languages,
Among them,
Many suspected Wang Ye planned to challenge a no-parachute skydive,
Yes,
There is indeed a sport known as no-parachute skydiving, though quite niche.
According to incomplete statistics from skydiving associations,
only five hundred dared to challenge this ultimate extreme sport,
Among them,
Three hundred lost their lives in the attempt!
A hundred and fifty suffered severe or debilitating injuries, forever bound to a wheelchair!
Globally, only a handful have successfully completed such a challenge, including a British skydiver named Luke Aikins, the world record holder for no-parachute skydiving.
His highest record was jumping from 7,620 meters without a parachute or wingsuit, only equipped with an oxygen mask and jumpsuit, landing safely on the ground.
Of course, he wasn’t entirely without protection; there was a massive safety net on the ground, as long as he landed successfully in the net, the challenge was successful, and the challenger’s life was not threatened,
But aiming for a ground-laid safety net from over seven thousand meters is no easy feat, a difficulty almost paralleled by Wang Ye’s past target parachute jump on Mount Everest.
As the air currents’ horizontal movement greatly hampers landing trajectory, making it hardly self-directed during descent.
The higher the altitude,
the more chaotic the air currents,
and the greater the difficulty.
And now, Wang Ye has to challenge a 40,000-meter stratosphere no-parachute skydive! Let alone no safety net, even with one, this challenge is Hell Level and historic!
Therefore, many uninformed foreigners assumed there was a safety net on the ground, a very large one, otherwise, they couldn’t fathom any reason for Wang Ye surviving a no-parachute freefall from 40,000 meters.
Amid these debates by so-called foreign professionals, some Chinese began to suspect Wang Ye had laid a safety net on the ground too. Because they couldn’t believe Wang Ye could surivive a hard freefall impact at 40,000 meters.
But what they didn’t know was,
there was really no safety net on the ground.
What Wang Ye challenged was a pure 40,000-meter free fall!
