Chapter 635: Yellow Golden Sea, Immortal Spirit Fish!

Bei Feng and the rest had already run far away. As for those rogue cultivators with slow reaction rate, they were just too unlucky.
Even if the Hole Void Beast did not specifically target these people, just the aura casually leaking from its body would cause those Hundred Year realm cultivators who hadn’t run far to suffer heavy injuries.
The Thousand Year King realm experts were a bit better off, but they also felt somewhat conflicted in front of this powerful creature.
Should they run or stay put to avoid catching the attention of this Hole Void Beast?
“Hou!”
The Hole Void Beast roared, not even taking a glance at these cultivators. Its gigantic body rose into the air, and it slowly waddled away.
The Hole Void Beast was simply too enormous, and the tiny humans were not even comparable to ants in its eyes.
It naturally had no interest in going out of its way to kill these insignificant creatures.
“Family Head, where shall we go from here?” Lu Bu asked.
Bei Feng thought for a moment, and said, “We’ll look for a place to stop first. After Lu Wei and the rest finish breaking through, we can head for the Yellow Golden Sea.”
After that, it would be time to earn some money. Raising the Celestial Emperor Bamboo was an important task as well.
This world was incredibly huge; even after countless years of exploration, Tianmu Planet had only uncovered a small portion of it.
The city that Tianmu Planet had established in this world was also perfectly in the middle of all four forbidden grounds.
The main reason why only such a small portion of this world had been explored in so many years was precisely because of these four forbidden areas.
To the south was an endless expanse of desert, which no one had passed through before.
To the north was the Yellow Golden Sea. The ocean was completely golden, boundless and immeasurable.
To the east, there was a chain of volcanoes. No one knew how many volcanoes there were in that area; a powerful expert once took a single look at the chain of volcanoes and immediately backed away, saying that if that chain of volcanoes ever erupted one day, this entire world would be destroyed!
As for the west, there was the Hundred Break Mountain Range which stretched for countless tens of thousand li. Powerful Greater Demons abounded endlessly within, and there were even three Greater Demons that entered the Martial Alliance.
The Yellow Golden Sea was famous for being a main fishing area for a type of resource called Immortal Spirit Fish.
These fishes were not considered Demonic Beasts, but their strength was terrifyingly high.
They were blessed by nature, and every part of their body was precious.
The skin of the fish could be made into clothes with amazing defense. The spine of this fish could be made into bows and arrows.
The fish’s blood could be used to greatly strengthen a cultivator’s physical body.
The flesh of the fish contained huge amounts of blood Qi energy and Ling Qi, and was incredibly tasty.
The fish’s eyes were the most valuable part. A single eye contained enough Ling Qi comparable to a peak-grade spirit stone!
Because of the value of this Immortal Spirit Fish, they were hunted with wild abandon.
Today, the shores that linked the Yellow Golden Sea to the city no longer had many Immortal Spirit Fish. Only by venturing deep into the Yellow Golden Sea would one be able to hunt these fishes.
However, there were also huge amounts of powerful Demonic Beasts in the Yellow Golden Sea. These Demonic Beasts were incredibly powerful, their strength not limited to Ten Thousand Year Realm ocean beasts.
If one came across these things, it was a guaranteed path to the Yellow Springs.
As a result, the price of these Immortal Spirit Fish also became higher and higher, and demand exceeded the level of supply.
The Ling Qi from the fish’s eyes was comparable to a peak-grade spirit stone, but no one would absorb the Ling Qi from it directly.
That would be an extremely wasteful way of using it.
The energy in each fish’s eye was only comparable to a peak-grade spirit stone, but its value was as high as 20 peak-grade spirit stones!
With the fish’s eye as the main ingredient, and some other supplementary herbs, one could refine many types of pills!
There were pills that could increase one’s strength in the Thousand Year King realm, and some pills could even help a Thousand Year King realm cultivator break through one to two sub levels!
One could even refine a kind of spirit power ability pill with it!
Consume this pill in the instant when breaking through to the Thousand Year King realm, and one could gain an additional spirit power ability, the Fish Eye Chaos Pearl!
This spirit power ability allowed one to create a clone with 30% of the battle strength of the user. It didn’t seem very useful, but in certain situations, it could bring about miraculous effects!
This was where the true value of the fish’s eyes lay!
A single fully mature Immortal Spirit Fish was worth 60 peak-grade spirit stones!
This was considered a sky-high price. After all, a high-grade spirit stone was traded at only one million HCD, but a peak-grade spirit stone was valued at 10 million HCD!
60 peak-grade spirit stones would be worth 600 million!
And this was only the price of a normal adult Immortal Spirit Fish. There was still the Fish King and Mutated Immortal Spirit Fish, whose value was even higher!
“You guys should have obtained some Thousand Year King realm cultivation techniques inside the ruin, right?” Bei Feng asked Lu Wei and the others as he turned round.
“Family Head, we’ve obtained one cultivation technique and three martial techniques. These are sufficient for us to train until the Ten Thousand Year Realm,” Lu Wei replied honestly without hiding anything.
“En. Remember, try to fuse your blood and Qi together as much as possible when you’re breaking through. The higher your fusion rate, the more benefits you will have after you’ve broken through,” Bei Feng advised seriously.
These people’s strength was now many times better than other normal Hundred Year realm cultivators’, but compared to himself when he broke through to the Thousand Year King realm, it was very far off.
Therefore, Bei Feng did not expect them to achieve perfect blood Qi fusion.
After all, it was already difficult to break through even with his foundations back then, not to mention Lu Wei and the rest.
However, Bei Feng still chose to give them an advice. The higher their blood Qi fusion was, the faster they would cultivate in the future. At the same time, their strength would be greater within the same realm!
Lu Bu had also reached a blood Qi fusion rate of 94%!
Lu Bing was slightly worse, but she had also achieved 90% blood Qi fusion.
Even among the large factions, this talent would be considered uncommon.
After all, fusing one’s blood Qi perfectly was too difficult. In any given era, there would never be more than a few people with perfect blood Qi fusion.
Bei Feng only hoped that Lu Wei and the rest would be able to fuse as much of their blood and Qi as possible, allowing them to advance further in the future.
They didn’t meet with any trouble along the way. The group exited the deep parts of the Hundred Break Mountain Range, and found a suitable place in the outer areas to rest.
Immortal Spirit Fishes were not that easy to catch. By bringing the newly advanced Lu Wei and the rest along, not only would they not be of much help, they would instead drag the group’s progress down.
Although Immortal Spirit Fishes had not developed much intelligence, and they did not know how to cultivate, their bodies were strong and powerful from birth. Their defensive capabilities were also shocking!
If a peak Hundred Year realm cultivator bumped into an adult Immortal Spirit Fish in the ocean, the cultivator’s strength might not even be greater than the fish’s.
In the past, the number of Thousand Year King realm cultivators on the shores could be counted by the thousands to tens of thousand. Only when the number of fishes declined did most of these Thousand Year King realm experts leave.
Lu Wei and the rest had already reached the peak of the Hundred Year realm, and could break through at anytime.
The only thing was that inside the ruin, breaking through meant death. As such, they could only suppress their growing strength.
Now that they’d come out of the ruin, and were no longer suppressing themselves, their auras were beginning to fluctuate unstably.
With a few hours of their secluded cultivation, several powerful auras burst through the air!
A suppressive aura surged through the surroundings, causing the entire area to fall completely silent. All the birds and beasts fell quiet.
“Hou!”
After another half an hour, an excited howl rang out from Lu Wei’s stone chamber.
Lu Bu’s mouth twitched irritably. It’s fine if you shout once, but how long are you going to shout?
“Alright, stop making so much noise. You’re interrupting others from breaking through.” Lu Bu’s voice directly sounded beside Lu Wei’s ears.
“Hehe.”
Lu Wei immediately shut his mouth and scratched the back of his head with some embarrassment.
Lu Bu didn’t say anything else, fully understanding the emotions of his brother.
Back then, he also hadn’t imagined that he would actually be able to ever break through to the Thousand Year King realm.
Everything had been given to him by the family head. Lu Bu was exceedingly grateful to him and the Lus.
Not only had the Lu Family raised and taught him, they’d changed his life as well. He was willing to be part of the Lu Family, serving as a sharp sword in the family head’s hands!
Anyone who dared stand before them would be slashed apart mercilessly!
But all of this required him to have sufficient strength!
Lu Bu swallowed seriously as he closed his eyes and began to focus on cultivation. He could feel that he was about to break through again soon.
As for the gangster rabbit, it didn’t have anything to do as it chewed on a carrot with a bored expression.
No one knew what kind of bloodline this fellow had awakened after its transformation. Bei Feng could count on his 10 fingers how many times this gangster rabbit had cultivated after that, but the rate at which this fellow improved was extremely quick, stunning even him.
Bei Feng could sense that this gangster rabbit had already reached the peak of the Third layer of the Thousand Year King realm!
It probably wouldn’t take long before it would break through.
One had to know that although Demonic Beasts had a much longer lifespan than humans, their cultivation was comparatively slower.
However, Gu Qi was obviously an exception.
Gu Qi had only broken through to the Thousand Year King realm quite recently, but it was already going to become a Fourth level Thousand Year King soon! It was truly unbelievable!
