Chapter 713 - 309: Crest of the Reversed Waves! Starlight in the Spotlight! (Part 3)
Drifting with the ocean current, Li Younan closed his eyes, and the entire sea’s pulse emerged before him.
...
That familiar, wondrous feeling of being one with the ocean appeared once again.
Because this place is a reserve, the seawater is remarkably clean.
Li Younan opened his eyes, the seawater before him constantly surging, lifting his body up and then down, just like a baby in the mother’s amniotic fluid, providing him with a very reassuring sensation.
Unlike other surfers who constantly look back at the position of the wave swell, he just looked at the seawater in front of him, while the roaring sound of the waves in the ocean, like white noise in the amniotic fluid, echoed in his ears.
Even so, he faintly sensed in his heart, if he closed his eyes, he could seemingly perceive the position of the waves behind him.
Before his eyes appeared the shape of the seabed, intangible swells collided, surged, and spun over the complex terrain, causing an exaggerated height difference in the waves on the ocean surface.
Not far from Li Younan, a jetski rider saw this scene and couldn’t help but frown: Isn’t he scared senseless? Why doesn’t he look back to see where the wave is?
How could he catch the wave without judging its position?
The surfer who had conflicts with Jenny saw this scene and couldn’t help but sneer, confidently saying, "This kid is going to get tossed to the back by this wave."
But no matter what they say, Li Younan now lying on the surfboard is temporarily safe.
At this moment, he was just quietly feeling it.
When the wave came beneath him, all at once, in his vision, the water in front began to sink!
The sinking speed grew faster and faster, while he seemed to be lifted by the retrograde seawater.
Li Younan did not hesitate at all; as if guided by destiny, in one moment, he knew he should paddle, so he plunged his hand into the water and energetically pushed backward.
He could clearly feel the water counterflowing, in alignment with the direction of his paddle, giving him a sensation of release.
He powerfully pushed the water backward, and finally, in the moment when his paddling speed overtook the water’s retrograde speed, his body and the surfboard beneath broke a certain balance point.
The once still board... moved.
Almost instantly, Li Younan coordinated his hands, feet, and torso to exert force simultaneously, planting his foot on the surfboard.
The front edge of the surfboard was already suspended, Li Younan seemed like he was standing on the cliff edge with half the board still on the cliff and the front half already airborne.
At this time, Li Younan’s body was also at the very top of the wave.
Because this wave zone only had Li Younan in it now, the few sightseeing boats yet to leave and the advanced surfers on the shore all had their eyes fixed on Li Younan.
No wonder, he was too conspicuous.
Previously, when Li Younan didn’t look back at the wave, everyone was puzzled, or sighed, thinking Li Younan was scared senseless.
But now, in the instant when Li Younan successfully caught the wave and stood up on the surfboard, everyone who understood how challenging surfing is uttered gasps of astonishment.
In their eyes at this moment, Li Younan was standing atop a super wave with nearly a 10-meter height difference.
Small as he looked amid the giant wave, a shared feeling arose among everyone—he had conquered this wave!
While Li Younan was entirely unconcerned about how others viewed him, his focus remained solely on the water ahead and the surfboard underfoot.
It’s now!
Li Younan’s front foot fiercely stomped downward, just like that figure rushing down from the snow mountain back then, the rear edge of the surfboard drew white spray through the blue-green water.
The scene before his eyes was rather wondrous; his body and the surfboard seemed to cut through a nearly 10-meter-high water slope, yet this water-made slope wasn’t stationary but reversed upward at an unimaginable speed, pouring forth, making him feel like someone counterflowing from above, this sensation was truly delightful.
Continuously descending but never reaching the wave’s bottom, this experience was almost comparable to swiftly descending Mount Everest.
Li Younan’s ears were filled with the booming sound of the waves, blocking out all the noise.
At this moment, he wanted nothing but to quietly revel in this instant of pleasure.
Thus he followed the unbroken green wave forward for a distance, but Li Younan still wasn’t satisfied with the speed.
He forcefully pressed down with his foot, twisting his waist, executing a perfect whirling cut into the wave, and his body sliced askew alongside the water wall.
The speed of this wave wasn’t consistent.
Suddenly within the counterflowing water ahead, an abrupt, swifter turbulence appeared!
The moment it made contact with the bottom of the surfboard, Li Younan sensed it, but instead of panicking, he rejoiced in his heart, strongly stomping his foot, collided with the turbulent flow.
Using this force, Li Younan was completely airborne, his body now carrying the torque brought about by the irregular force from the turbulence.
Li Younan did not resist, but followed this force to freely spin in the air, making a full 720 degrees!
For Li Younan, this was as natural as walking, but in the eyes of other spectators, it had already exploded into excitement.
What?
You should know doing a 360-degree on the waves is already a professional-grade high-level stunt!
