God of Fishing

Chapter 746: I’ll Watch You Cry Later

A moment later, Han Fei realized that the poisons were spreading out of a crevice from some rocks at the bottom of the sea.

A Half-Merman asked, “Are you sure this place is weird? It looks absolutely safe to me! Although the coral is all dead, other creatures are still coming to this place, which means that this place can’t be dangerous.”

Yu Yue echoed him, “We might be overthinking. If there were a treasure trove among the coral, it should’ve been found by the Ten Thousand Demon Valley.”

Yu Ji nodded. “You’re right! We’ll search for a while longer and leave if we don’t find anything.”

Han Fei sneered. You want to leave? Not so easy. This treasure trove works well with its poisons and its grand Spirit Gathering Array that can absorb vitality.

It meant that spiritual energy must be gathering down below, and that there had to be some poisonous items that could swallow vitality. Whether or not they were alive, they would cause trouble to intruders.

So, Han Fei “accidentally” touched the rocks.

Crack!

The crevice on the rocks quickly expanded.

All seven of them instantly detected it, and Han Fei looked around in confusion.

In the next second, Yu Ji arrived first and stared at the crevice thoughtfully.

Yu Yue glanced at Han Fei and patted the rocks.

Crack!

The crevice got even bigger.

Someone asked in surprise, “Something is wrong with the rocks! They seem to be vaguely absorbing spiritual power, but it’s very trivial and almost negligible.”

Someone looked at Han Fei. “Yu Gan, how did you find it?”

Han Fei looked at Yu Ji in confusion. “I... Don’t know!”

Yu Yue grinned. “He was just lucky to touch the rocks and expand the crevice. It was just a coincidence.”

Yu Ji believed that too. After all, Han Fei had been awakened as an Azure Sea Blue Demon hundreds of thousands of kilometers away, and he couldn’t have been to this place.

If Han Fei had seen through the entrance of the treasure trove, he wouldn’t have looked so confused.

Yu Ji swung her harpoon and cut the rocks apart without using much strength.

Han Fei was surprised at the fragility of the rocks, which probably would’ve cracked on their own one or two months later even if he hadn’t found them.

Han Fei couldn’t help but wonder how long the rocks had been there, and why they were so fragile...

After the rocks fell apart, an unremarkable round hole appeared in front of everybody’s eyes. Instantly, Han Fei saw that he lost five points of his back up spiritual energy.

“Huh? The core of the array is broken. The barrier is unfolded. Clearly, there must be more defenses down below.”

Someone said, “Yu Gan, you go down first.”

Yu Ji glared at him. “Why don’t you go down?”

The guy was lost for words. “Yu Ji, aren’t you getting too defensive of him? Even if you’re raising him as your guard, shouldn’t he be leading the exploration in moments like this?”

Yu Ji frowned. “He’s not weak, but he cannot use his strength freely yet... I’ll go down.”

“Let me...”

Han Fei simply stood in front of Yu Ji and blocked her. Yu Ji was rather dazed.

It was the first time that Han Fei stood in her way. Obviously, he didn’t want her to take the risk.

Yu Ji thought to herself, It’s true that you can’t receive sincerity until you treat others sincerely.

What Yu Ji didn’t know was that Han Fei volunteered to go down because he wanted to get the treasures first and set up a few traps. How could he do anything if others went down first?

Han Fei said indifferently, “Wait for me to come back.”

After that, Han Fei jumped into the hole without hesitation.

After he landed, what Han Fei saw first was sediment that looked like lime powder. There were a lot of ivory stones and translucent crystals in this place. There was no telling where the narrow long tunnel led to.

Then, Han Fei looked back and checked if he could get back. As he expected, he couldn’t even spread his senses out. It was true that it was impossible to get back now that he was in.

Instantly, Han Fei grinned. “Damn it, I’ve been holding myself back for too long. Sons of b*tches, let’s see how I’ll kill you later...”

Han Fei had been paying attention to the loss of spiritual energy. He found that his spiritual energy was dropping at about five points per second.

That was already a dreadful speed! If anyone stayed here for half an hour, they would basically run out of spiritual energy without the supply of spiritual fruits.

“Tsk, tsk. This place is interesting!”

Han Fei went straight into the treasure trove. He couldn’t go back anyway, which gave him a good excuse to explore it. If anyone followed them into this place, it would be a great opportunity for him to kill them.

Moving ahead, Han Fei found a rather spacious undersea cave. All the rocks in the cave were pale white. He sensed that the Heaven Spirit Detoxifying Insect in his body jerked now and then. Clearly, there were poisons in this place.

When Han Fei looked at the center of the undersea cave, he couldn’t have looked more awful.

This place was not a treasure trove at all, but a place where poisons were gathered.

What Han Fei saw was a Fateful Poison Grass.

According to “A Complete Collection of Spiritual Plants in the Infinite Ocean”, the Fateful Poison Grass was a special poisonous plant that had two phases.

When it was immature, it was known as Fateful Poison Grass and was extremely lethal. It could corrupt both the body and the soul and kill anyone in three days.

When it became mature, it was known as Fateful Holy Grass that contained infinite vitality and could even let whoever ate it break the soul barrier.

What Han Fei saw wasn’t mature yet, but it was about to be.

A maturing Fateful Poison Grass required abundant spiritual energy and vitality as nutrition. It was perhaps why it was absorbing vitality and spiritual energy more vehemently, and why the treasure trove was exposed.

Han Fei’s eyes flashed. He would never touch the Fateful Poison Grass, which still needed months to mature.

He didn’t have several months to wait for the grass to mature. However, the maturation could be boosted by additional vitality and spiritual energy.

Personally, Han Fei couldn’t afford such a thing, but there were still seven Half-Mermen outside. It seemed a fair deal to ripen the Fateful Poison Grass with them.

Of course, that was on the premise that those people didn’t recognize the Fateful Poison Grass.

Otherwise, it was possible that they would kill him and feed him to the Fateful Poison Grass.

The problem was that any spiritual plants had guardians. After all, there were creatures at the bottom of the sea everywhere, and some of them must’ve benefited from the spiritual plants during their growth. The strongest of the creatures would gradually evolve into guardians.

The guardians would fight too, and only the strongest could survive.

Han Fei hadn’t seen any guardians yet, but the Fateful Poison Grass’s guardian couldn’t be simple. First of all, it couldn’t have been dependent on spiritual energy or vitality. Secondly, it had to be resistant to poisons too.

Such a creature was a monster by itself. Han Fei wasn’t confident of dealing with it unless he resumed his human form.

“Forget it, let me get those guys down here first.”

This treasure trove contained nothing but the undersea cave, which was only three thousand square meters. Although the Half-Mermen might use him as fertilizer, it wouldn’t be a problem if he had set up the Poison God in advance. It was impossible for them to escape anyway.

...

Dum! Dum! Dum!

The coral shook slightly, but Yu Ji and the others could all sense the noise.

Yu Ji thought, “Yu Gan is knocking the wall down below. He must’ve confirmed the safety of the place.”

Yu Yue’s eyes widened. “Don’t trust him yet. What if accidents happened in the treasure trove?”

A Half-Merman said, “Let’s wait for a while longer. The trove is right here anyway. We can always come back later.”

However, someone else disagreed. “Later? If there are any treasures inside, do you think you and I can get a share?”

Yu Ji simply ignored them and stepped into the treasure trove.

The moment Yu Ji entered, she saw a harpoon stabbing at her. She subconsciously thought that Han Fei was ambushing her.

But in the next moment, Han Fei put the harpoon back and said to her, “I’m... Trying to get out.”

Yu Ji frowned. “What’s down below?”

Han Fei said, “My spiritual energy is vanishing.”

Yu Ji turned grave too. She sensed herself and found that the spiritual energy in her body was truly dwindling.

She had misunderstood Yu Gan. She thought Yu Gan was calling them to come down, while in fact, he was trying to get out.

But it was already too late. She saw that all the Half-Mermen had come down one after another...

A moment later, a Half-Merman roared, “Bastard, I knew that the Azure Sea Blue Demon wasn’t trustworthy! We’re all trapped in this place!”

Yu Ji frowned. “Seeking survival is every living creature’s instinct. Do you expect him to wait and die in this place?”

Yu Yue sneered, “In any case, we’ve all been tricked into this place by the noises he caused. If we can’t get out, I’ll kill this Azure Sea Blue Demon first.”

“Hiss!”

Han Fei grimaced at Yu Yue, as if he was very angry.

Actually, Han Fei couldn’t have felt better as he muttered, “Just be arrogant while you can. I’ll watch you cry later.”
