Chapter 39: Slaying the Sea Monster!

  "Then aren't we polluting the stream by doing this? Is the Jiu Zi Jin Lian still useful?" Chen Tao asked doubtfully, stroking his shiny bald head.

  "It's stupid, if the creek is really polluted, it would be faster to use poison. The main component of chili powder is vitamins and will not have a lethal effect on Jiuzi Jinlian. At most, it can only make Jiuzi Jinlian slightly wither, but it won't wither completely." Ye Chen said firmly to Chen Tao, as if to boost his confidence, but in fact, Ye Chen was also uncertain, just like he was trying to convince himself of this plan.

  Time passed minute by minute, second by second, but the surface of the spring remained calm and still. At this time, not only did Chen Tao doubt whether Ye Chen's plan was feasible or not, even Ye Chen himself had some doubts.

  "Look!" Ye Chen's eyes shone brightly as he stared intently at the center of the spring, Chen Tao heard Ye Chen's voice and also perked up, looking towards the spring.

  "Come on, Dust, stop teasing me all the time, what's with the commotion, it's still the same old thing." Chen Tao said discontentedly to Ye Chen.

  "Look at Jinlian!" Ye Chen said in a low voice without turning his head.

  "Jinlian?" Chen Tao turned his head in some confusion to look at the Jiu Zi Jinlian in the center of the creek, its nine lotus seeds still radiating a faint golden light that could be seen even in the depths of night.

  But Jinlian hasn't changed at all, still swaying gently. Hmm, swaying? It seemed to be stationary before?

  Just as Chen Tao was puzzled, the nine-son golden lotus shook even more violently, and this time Chen Tao's feeling became even clearer - something was really going to happen!

  Wow!

  The angry voice of the golden monster fish echoed through the clear wind valley, whooshing sounds, the golden monster fish rushed out of the spring again, its transparent tentacles turned fiery red, it was unclear whether it was due to anger or the chili powder that caused it.

  The golden giant fish glared angrily at Ye Chen and Chen Tao in mid-air.

  "Now!" Ye Chen shouted loudly, and at the same time, he pulled out from behind, swung, and a black shadow shot straight towards the golden giant fish.

  The golden giant fish was fearless, glaring angrily at the two of them, its fins stirring up water droplets that shot out like sharp arrows.

  Ye Chen's face didn't change color, he swung his arm and the black shadow turned into a huge net that fell directly onto the golden monster fish. Ye Chen's hand shook slightly, and the huge net naturally closed on the lake surface, wrapping the golden giant fish inside.

  At this time, the water droplets had already attacked Ye Chen's face. Ye Chen was holding onto the giant fish and didn't have any spare hands to defend himself. He directly crouched down, hiding his body behind the wall, and with all his might, he pulled on the fishing line in his hand.

  Chen Tao quickly pulled the net in Ye Chen's hand, and according to Ye Chen's plan, the golden strange fish was suitable for fighting in the water. Once on shore, its strength would inevitably be greatly reduced, and at that time it would be like meat on a chopping board, waiting to be slaughtered!

  But the two thought too much, the golden strange fish's body of more than one meter long twisted in the fishing net, producing a force that almost made both of them unable to hold onto the net rope.

  "Come on!" Ye Chen shouted loudly, using all his internal force, Chen Tao also used all his might, desperately pulling the net line, Chen Tao felt like his palms were being cut open.

  The golden monster fish in mid-air was suddenly caught by the fishing net, and there wasn't much worry in its eyes, but rather more anger. After all, it was a third-class demon beast, not very intelligent, but not low either.

  This fishing net was not even in the eyes of the strange fish, lightly struggling for a moment, unexpectedly did not break free, again struggling, still did not tear open this huge net, the golden strange fish suddenly panicked, suddenly went crazy and struggled.

  It's a long story, but it actually happened in just a few seconds. The pulling force that Ye Chen and Chen Tao endured grew stronger and stronger, and the results they produced became more and more apparent.

  A strange fish in mid-air, without a foothold, was pulled by Ye Chen and others, getting closer and closer to the shore.

  Ye Chen and Chen Tao were both tense, their strength almost exhausted. The golden strange fish was about to be pulled ashore, of course, they didn't want it to return to the water, otherwise all their previous efforts would have been in vain, and they wouldn't get the Nine Sons Golden Lotus either!

  Especially the last point, this is a result that neither Ye Chen nor Chen Tao can accept.

  "It mustn't be allowed back into the water!" Ye Chen gritted his teeth and said.

  "Alright, I'll pull it up with all my might!" Chen Tao's face was solemn, his forehead furrowed, his teeth clenched, and the veins on his arms bulged.

  Two men simultaneously stepped on the front wall, one foot bent, and with a strong push, the golden strange fish was pulled towards the riverbank along the rope net.

  With a loud thud, the two men and the fish fell to the ground simultaneously. Ye Chen and Chen Tao both tumbled to the ground, but they didn't have time to pause for a moment before they both sprang up at the same time and rushed towards the location of the golden giant fish.

  The fishing net is sturdy, but under the huge pulling force of both sides, many cracks have appeared, and it may not be able to withstand the monster fish's next pull.

  Two men, each holding a long sword, rushed to the side of the strange fish. The golden strange fish was jumping wildly, but its body was entangled in a fishing net, which restricted both the height and direction of its jumps.

  Such a good opportunity, Ye Chen and Chen Tao certainly want to grasp it well, with almost no hesitation, two long swords stabbed into the fishing net from two directions.

  Clang! Clang!

  Two flashes of fire appeared on the tips of two long swords, and the third-level demon beast was equivalent to a strong pre-heavenly realm cultivator. The defense it possessed shocked Ye Chen and Chen Tao.

  The long sword surprisingly couldn't harm it and only left two shallow marks on its body.

  "Attack its weak point!" Ye Chen made a swift decision, stepping on the fishing net on the monster fish's body and jumping up. He was suspended in mid-air, his long sword pointing straight down at the golden monster fish's eyes.

  Chen Tao didn't have Ye Chen's agility, but he had his own moves. The long sword in his hand aimed at the other eye of the golden giant fish and was thrown out fiercely.

  The golden giant fish's eyes were bright red with rage, but it still had a sense of danger. Its red tentacles quickly retracted, blocking its vision, one coiling upwards and the other wrapping around Chen Tao's thrown long sword.

  The golden monster fish's tentacles were equally tough, and ordinary long swords couldn't hurt them at all. Just like Chen Tao's thrown long sword was entwined by the red tentacles, without even scratching the skin, it was blocked by the tentacles.

  I don't know if it's because this strange fish is too stupid or because it was enraged and lost its head, but it actually used its tentacles to resist Ye Dust's long sword. Doesn't it know that its previous tentacles were cut off by Ye Dust?

  Yedu's line of sight was completely blocked by a circle of red tentacles, and he couldn't see what the situation was below.

  At that moment, Ye Chen suddenly thought of a sword move he had seen before. The description in the book was from top to bottom, one go without prior, telling the story of a sword master who wanted to find a one-go-without-prior sword method. He actually flew down from the cliff, merged his body with the sword, and slashed through the void!

  Ye Chen didn't have the courage to practice this sword technique with suicidal intent before, because Ye Chen wasn't a person who could let go of everything, having emotional attachments and constraints, without being unrestrained and unbridled.

  But now the situation and that situation are so similar, it's just a bit lower in height.

  Ye Chen's hand turned the long sword, and the long sword spun rapidly in his hand. Ye Chen himself also spun in mid-air.

  A lone figure spinning with one sword, producing a sharp breath of air, the inner power of the sword surging out wildly, only to see red tentacles flying all over the sky.

  A shrill cry, a golden strange fish was pierced with a hole and nailed to the ground!
