Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Yun Yang looked at the King Qirin Fish in confusion, not knowing the intention of the king bringing him here. He did not dare to move rashly, only waiting for the fish king to give him the next clue.

The hint appeared in the form of the fish king flapping its tail against the water happily, splashing water all over. It then swam over and leaned against Yun Yang’s legs - unmoving, like it was resting.

Resting?

Yun Yang felt incredulous.

You’ve brought me here all the way… for what? To rest?

It was when Yun Yang was absolutely at a loss that he felt an indescribably overbearing force arriving. The feeling was akin to the sky suddenly falling.

At the same time, he felt his heart palpitate. The deeper ground underneath his feet was also quaking and ripples broke the peaceful surface of the water.

The fish king stuck closer to Yun Yang as if comforting him, "Don’t be scared, it’s okay."

Yun Yang grew increasingly exasperated but not too long later, a bright light shone from the wall above. It was a pure purple ray that grew bigger, like a bubble that was expanding, until it grew to the size of a human head and hovered above the dent.

A bubbling noise emanated from below the ground. Right then, a colorless gas shot up from the dent right into the purple ball of light that hovered above. With a clear ringing sound, the fog shot outwards like arrows flying in every direction.

When the arrows of gas refracted, it did not grow weaker but struck against the cave wall, making echoes upon collision. When the gas bounced back again, it formed another new ball of gas above the dent on the stone platform.

What was different was that this ball was no longer colorless; it had turned a luminous rainbow sheen.

It rotated as it flowed faintly, the movement slow but ceaseless.

When the King Qirin Fish saw it, it let out a sharp cry like it was cheering. Then it nudged Yun Yang’s waist with its head, asking him to go forward.

"You want me to take this?" Yun Yang asked in shock, pointing at the rainbow ball of gas that was beginning to dissipate.

The fish king got anxious, charging over and raising its head to take in a large mouthful of gas. A big flow of gas then rushed into its opened mouth.

It turned to look at Yun Yang, its tail flapping in the water anxiously as if saying, "Quick, do as I did."

Yun Yang shrugged, not daring to simply do so since he did not know what it was after all. However, looking at the King Qirin Fish that looked very at ease now, he figured that the gas would not be dangerous; he stuck his head over to inhale some of the gas despite still being somewhat doubtful.

Just as the doubtful whiff of rainbow gas entered his mouth, Yun Yang could feel the mystical Qi in his dantian give a violent tremble. He felt a sense of wonder then, a warm comfortable sensation enveloping his entire body.

Emmie, that had been swaying around in his deific consciousness suddenly turned quiet; its tendrils that never stopped waving about froze in the air too; its leaves curled up as well before they suddenly stretched out. Then, it began swaying like it never had before.

Emmie wore a look of absolute anxiousness.

The fish king had only taken three breaths, absorbing less than one-tenth of the ball of gas’ energy. It stopped, laying down in the water and closing its eyes, obviously digesting the power contained within the gas.

Three mouthfuls were all it could take.

Yun Yang could feel Emmie’s urgency now. After a slight hesitation, he directed Qi from his dantian and took a deep breath.

Yun Yang breathing in, based on mystical Qi, was a much stronger inhalation than his first. It was more than the fish king’s inhalation as well. The ball of rainbow gas turned into billows of mist at once, flowing slowly but surely into Yun Yang’s mouth.

Emmie grew even more ecstatic as it shook around, waving its tendrils.

As it made noises filled with glee, it absorbed the colorful gas into the subconscious space and placed them around itself.

The two emerald leaves curled up and stretched out several times as the tendrils danced. Before long, the gas that was the size of a head was entirely absorbed.

The faint fog that accumulated on the dent was nowhere to be seen.

The surroundings returned to its initial peaceful calm.

Yun Yang could tell that he felt different but he could not pinpoint what the difference.

Emmie was in an unprecedentedly content state. It swayed around endlessly in the consciousness as its soft calls rang out continuously.

After making sure that the rainbow gas had been entirely absorbed, Emmie immediately delivered the collected gas into itself. Its thin leaves grew thick, the surface area enlarging while its color deepened to a dark green, that was close to black.

This was the sign of an extremely healthy plant!

Its tendrils grew thicker too, the length doubling.

Yun Yang watched the changes with his mouth agape; he was finally sure that the mysterious colorful gas was a rare gem, and he had fallen upon a legendary enchanted encounter today!

Yun Yang had never seen any resources of heaven and earth that could make Emmie grow so quickly and vast. Ordinary treasured resources might not increase Emmie’s level, seeing that it was an extraordinary force of tremendous power from nature, yet this special gas had given way to such huge changes!

It was easily fathomable how amazing a gem this gas was.

Furthermore, his meridians seemed to also be strengthened. Yun Yang directed his cultivation to try it out and realized that his meridians were more resilient than they used to be by tenfold and perhaps more!

It led him to wonder how far all of the rainbow gas’ energy could take him if he could still acquire such vast improvements when most of the energy contained within the colorful gas had been absorbed and stored by Emmie.

Yun Yang could only ponder about it though; he was still clueless about many things, including what was right before his eyes. What gas was this? How could its potential be so magical and potent?

Why did it happen? It was definitely not manipulated by man; it was a strange coincidence of god’s fate that such a divine phenomenon existed. It was by heaven’s fate, the mystique of celestial being - impossible to have been man-made!

The King Qirin Fish had already awakened from the rainbow gas it absorbed. Obviously nourished and strengthened, it charged around the shallow waters like a handsome powerful horse, splashing water everywhere.

Yun Yang was quick to notice that the colors of the fish king seemed to have deepened greatly. It looked like the benefits of the gas towards Qirin Fish was unusually great as well.

The King Qirin Fish had led Yun Yang all the way here; now, it was also leading Yun Yang back - happily. Its fat tail splattered water everywhere along the way, the triumph and content it felt obvious to anyone who observed its behavior.

Halfway through their journey, Yun Yang chuckled and hugged the fish king’s head, rubbing it affectionately while directing a flow of air of vitality into the king.

The King Qirin Fish was thrilled about the gift. Feeling the increased amount of air of vitality compared to the previous time, it spun around like it was dancing. With a swoosh, it shot a thousand feet away before it came back with another swoosh, repeating the process…

The fish and the man left the abyss gleefully, returning to the waters of the Thousand Feet Lake.

Yun Yang really needed to leave now. The King Qirin Fish tailed him longingly, following him for quite a distance.

"Go back." Yun Yang patted the fish king’s head and said comfortingly, "I’ll come back soon, we’ll see each other before you know it."

He was speaking the truth. How could he not come when this place possessed something so magical… Even if he did not come, Emmie would pester him to do so.

The King Qirin Fish rubbed its head against Yun Yang’s embrace like a spoiled child who did not want an adult to leave. It was different from Emmie’s affection but it touched Yun Yang’s heart all the same; after a period of comforting, the king finally stopped with reluctance.

After Yun Yang had left, it laid there unmoving for a long time.

…

Yun Yang had indeed received a tremendous gift from this enchanted underwater encounter despite not knowing it himself.

Han Sanhe and the youth in black by the lake bank were in a totally different scenario, however.

The initial baiting of ordinary fish had passed; it should have been the Qirin Fish’s turn but the ordinary fish species that should already have stayed away came again in batches.

There were carps, grass carps, blackfishes, catfishes, so on and so forth.

The Fish Fatale of Gugu, the youth in black, was made especially for Qirin Fish but the bait that could attract even the King Qirin Fish, king of all fish, undoubtedly posed a stronger temptation to normal fish. What was worse was that those that bit the hook one after another were only small fish that weighed about a half cattie despite the multitude species that came.

There was not much valuable Fish Fatale to go around and they had all been used to feed these random fish.

Even when the Fish Fatale was used up, not even half a Qirin Fish was seen. It was truly odd!

Too f*cking odd! What was the problem?
