Fishing the Myriad Heavens

Chapter 64: Indomitable Life Force!

Translator: AstralGhost Editor: Kurisu

Regarding the mysteries of space, Bei Feng was completely unfamiliar with it. Throwing the thought to the back of his mind, he turned to look at the ugly giant lizard lying in his yard.

"Ding! Grade 1 treasure obtained, Variant Giant Salamander! (This creature’s meat is delicious and contains large amounts of nutrition useful to the human body. Effects are especially beneficial for children and the elderly!) Experience gained: 250! Experience required to reach level 2 Fisherman: 3,400!"

"What the hell? 250? Such an enormous beast is only worth so little? This is even inferior to that toad which was as big as a basketball…"

Although he knew that the System would not reply him, Bei Feng could not help but curse aloud.

"What a waste of time growing to such a size!"

Bei Feng grumbled in irritation. With a thought, Extreme Arctic Frost appeared above the Variant Giant Salamander and directly dropped on it tip first, stabbing deeply into the Giant Salamander’s head!

As he watched Extreme Arctic Frost pierce through the Giant Salamander, Bei Feng immediately removed the hook from the beast.

"Pa!"

Right as he removed the hook, the Variant Giant Salamander began struggling immediately! A powerful claw was sent slapping towards Bei Feng!

"Bam!"

Bei Feng’s body, as compared to the Variant Giant Salamander, was both light and small. The claw which was as thick as his own waist hit him squarely in the chest, sending him flying like a cannon ball, soaring five, six meters into air before landing heavily on the ground!

"Ah, f*ck! That hurt!"

Three long lines, each one 3-centimeter-thick had appeared on Bei Feng’s chest, dripping with blood through his shredded clothes! This was the result of a single, random swipe by the threshing Giant Salamander!

Bei Feng’s white shirt was quickly dyed red with blood. It went without saying that the shirt could never be worn again.

"Peng! Pa!"

The Variant Giant Salamander was still thrashing wildly, its long and muscular tail leaving deep traces on the muddy ground.

The eaves of a nearby room fell apart, transforming into countless rubble and tiles which fell to the ground as the powerful tail smashed into it.

"F*ck! Bai Xiang! Come here! Quick!"

If he allowed this Variant Giant Salamander to continue its rampage, the entire old mansion would sooner or later be torn down by it!

Bai Xiang and the rest were in the front yard. From their location, it was impossible to see what Bei Feng was doing. If they turned the corner, there was still the huge banyan tree which blocked their vision. Right now, they could only hear the booming noises which emanated from the backyard in distinct bursts.

Upon hearing Bei Feng’s frantic calls, Bai Xiang ditched the three Mystics and charged toward the other end of the yard like a human bulldozer!

"Holy sh*t! What a big fellow! How long will this amount of meat last us?!"

As he turned the corner, Bai Xiang was greeted with the sight of an immensely disorderly yard. A gigantic beast was in the center of the chaos, rampaging wildly. He almost drooled at the sight of the robust creature.

"Bai Xiang, what are you standing there in a daze for?! Hurry and help me subdue this thing! Otherwise, we’ll all be sleeping in the streets tonight!"

Bei Feng almost spat out a mouthful of blood as he looked at the flabbergasted Bai Xiang standing dumbly nearby.

"I’m coming!"

Bai Xiang felt a surge of strength as he rushed toward the Variant Giant Salamander. In his eyes, this ferocious creature was nothing more than a huge chunk of moving, delicious meat!

"Hou!"

A thin layer of golden light appeared around his body as Bai Xiang activated the Golden Geng Immortal Body martial technique.

"Bam!"

Bai Xiang had charged into the midst of the chaos and roughly pinned the Variant Giant Salamander’s head to the ground, immobilizing it. A depressing thud sounded out as the Variant Giant Salamander’s head was forcefully shoved into the ground!

"Wa, wa!"

The Variant Giant Salamander cried out twice as it swung its thick and muscular tail at Bai Xiang!

"Pa!"

The agile tail was like a powerful whip, soaring through the air and bringing the shrill sound of something slicing through air along with it! With a loud smack, it smashed heavily onto Bai Xiang’s body!

Like a fly swatted away by an ox’s tail, Bai Xiang was directly sent flying far away!

The force behind this tail strike was no less than one thousand jin! With he size and physique of the Variant Giant Salamander in addition to its current state of rage and madness, the damage it dealt was no weaker than the one sustained from a hit by a speeding car!

Even Bei Feng cringed in pain as he watched Bai Xiang soar through the air!

"Peng!"

Bai Xiang’s hulking figure drew a beautiful arch as it flew over ten meters outwards and crashed dully into the ground.

Bei Feng did not intend to sit back and enjoy the show. Sensing that his turn had come, he charged at the Giant Salamander and aimed a heavy punch at it, smashing it brutally on the head.

‘So slippery!’

Bei Feng felt his fist slip somewhat as it landed on the Variant Giant Salamander. He estimated that the slime covering its body was able to displace at least a third of his strike’s power!

As for the remaining force, its wrinkled skin still had the ability to absorb a third of it! In the end, the amount of power that actually reached the Variant Giant Salamander was negligible, being greatly diminished!

Although it was enough to hurt the Variant Giant Salamander, it was not enough to kill it!

In fact, the punch only served to further enrage the Variant Giant Salamander! With a swipe of its tail, one of the rooms directly fell apart, turning into a ruin!

"Again!"

Having taken his warning taken from the overturned cart in front, Bei Feng placed a huge portion of his attention on the Variant Giant Salamander’s highly agile tail. As soon as he saw the powerful tail swinging toward him, he would dodge to the side, returning a strike after the danger had passed! [1]

"AHH! You’ve hurt me!"

Bai Xiang crawled up clumsily, shook his head violently and let loose a savage roar before charging with huge steps at the Variant Giant Salamander!

A fierce look appeared in his eyes as Bai Xiang formed a hand seal on each hand. Immediately after, a layer of even more intense golden light appeared on both of his fists, as if he were holding a shiny little sun in each hand!

"Hong!"

Bai Xiang clasped both hands together like a powerful hammer and smashed heavily downwards onto the Variant Giant Salamander’s head!

"Wa, wa!"

The Giant Salamander’s slimy skin was unable to deflect the force of the attack this time. Bai Xiang’s massive fists had directly smashed onto its head, creating a massive dent in it!

In an instant, a third of its tough head had been caved inwards!

Tyrannic force passed through the Giant Salamander’s skin and skull, crashing directly into its brain. In an instant, the Giant Salamander’s brain was smashed into a bloody mess!

Although it was already dead, the Variant Giant Salamander’s life force was too robust. Even without its consciousness, its body continued to struggle wildly!

"Pa!"

In its final struggle, the Giant Salamander’s tail smashed heavily onto Bai Xiang’s body. The golden light on his body appeared to be resisting the force for a split second before being completely shattered!

Although the golden light around Bai Xiang had been shattered, the Giant Salamander’s body was in a much worse condition. A deep gash had been formed on its tail from the impact!

The golden light around Bai Xiang’s body was like a sharp blade, dealing great damage to the Giant Salamander.

Bai Xiang was once again sent flying, but his condition this time was much more wretched. A mouthful of fresh blood spewed forth from his mouth as he shot backwards violently.

Although most of the impact had been absorbed by the protective golden light, the remaining force was not that easy to bear!

Bai Xiang could feel that his vital organs had been shaken, and he would need to rest for at least a week to recover to his peak condition!

But as he looked at the huge piece of meat on the ground, Bai Xiang began to laugh gleefully.

After receiving that final savage strike from Bai Xiang, the Giant Salamander had lost all its destructive might. Its tail laid lifeless on the ground, and only its four limbs would twitch slightly from time to time.

‘I was too careless this time!’

Bei Feng felt some lingering fear in his heart as he looked at the massive beast before him. When he saw Extreme Arctic Frost pierce through the Giant Salamander’s head, he had completely let his guard down!

If Bai Xiang wasn’t here today, it would probably have escaped. There was no way he could have subdued this terrifying beast alone!

Stooping down beside the Giant Salamander, Bei Feng observed the hole in its head. A thin layer of ice crystals still remained around the wound, but the impacted area only consisted of blood and flesh. There were no signs of any brain matter.

‘This must be the reason why it didn’t die the first time. The strike actually missed its brain completely…’

Bei Feng furrowed his eyebrows and thought in silence. He would keep this lesson in his heart. He would be even more cautious the next time. Otherwise, he might end up being the fish instead of the fisherman!

TL/N: I feel so bad for the Giant Salamander… I wish they could have killed it in a more painless way.
