Chapter 7

The fastest updates for The God of Fishing are here!

Han Fei stood at the door of the classroom, took a deep breath, and firmly gripped the secret letter his mother had given him.

With cherry blossoms dancing in the wind, Han Fei opened the old diary and read the words of the promise written there.

The fishing rod broke, and Han Fei was once again left without a fishing rod. The only things he had left were a broken dagger someone had given him and a cheap fin knife stuck in a piece of wood. Feeling depressed, Han Fei took a small white fish from the fish hold and started making sashimi.

"Hmm! The taste is actually quite good, the meat is firm, and it has a bit of a beef-like texture." Han Fei was a bit surprised. This kind of meat quality was perfect for sashimi, with a very light blood flavor and a fresh, clean taste. He had thought the small white fish would be worse than larger yellow croakers and cutlassfish, but it turned out to be unexpectedly good.

Before long, half of the small white fish was in his stomach. To Han Fei's surprise, his Spirit Qi value had increased from 20 to 23. Han Fei was stunned. Wasn't it supposed to be only 3 points of Spirit Qi for a small white fish? He had only eaten half!

Han Fei finished the remaining half of the small white fish, and his Spirit Qi increased to 26 points, making his mouth twitch.

Han Fei didn't know that when people ate, their bodies would enter a highly relaxed state, not only absorbing the Spirit Qi from the seafood but also promoting the absorption of free-floating Spirit Qi in the environment.

The sky was beginning to turn light, and it was almost dawn. This night had passed safely. Han Fei sat cross-legged and began to continue his cultivation.

His wrist started to heat up again, and he felt a continuous flow of Spirit Qi entering his body, but the amount of Spirit Qi was clearly much less than before.

"Hmm! Why has it decreased?" Han Fei opened his eyes in surprise and saw that the three moons had almost disappeared, leaving only a faint white glow.

"Is the speed of Spirit Qi absorption related to these three moons?"

After half an hour.

The sky was bright, and the crimson sun rose over the sea, casting a beam of morning light.

In an instant, Han Fei, who was still in cultivation, felt a shock throughout his body. The Spirit Qi from the void suddenly surged. If it had been a small stream before, now it felt like a river of Spirit Qi pouring into his body.

"Phew, that's a lot..." Han Fei's forehead was sweating, and the gourd on his wrist suddenly appeared.

He only managed to hold on for a few breaths before he felt like he was about to be burned alive.

"Ouch... it hurts."

Han Fei felt his wrist suddenly burning and quickly stopped cultivating. When he opened his eyes, he saw smoke rising from his wrist, with a purple light shining on it.

Before he could get up, a flame suddenly ignited on his wrist.

"Phew, it's hot..."

Han Fei immediately got up and quickly put his hand in the water in the fish hold.

He also checked the Spirit Qi Refining Cauldron, and saw that his Spirit Qi had increased from 26 to 108. This speed shocked him. Could it be because of that purple light?

Just as Han Fei was thinking, he stumbled and the sea began to boil. The surrounding sea suddenly rose, and waves began to form in the distance.

But those weren't real waves. Han Fei saw countless fish fins swimming towards his small boat.

"Crackling..."

A large number of fish started jumping around, and several small white fish hit Han Fei in the face.

But that wasn't all. Large yellow croakers hit Han Fei in the stomach, making him bend over like a shrimp. Before he could react, a tentacle shrimp flew into the air.

"Damn it..."

Without a second thought, Han Fei quickly dove into a fish hold and immediately closed the lid.

Han Fei felt his heart pounding. He seemed to have done something terrible, causing a disturbance in the sea.

Not long after he closed the lid,

"Thud... thud... thud... crackle... crackle... crackle..."

He didn't know how many fish had landed on the deck, and he could hear the tentacle shrimp crawling on the deck. He even saw the shrimp's tentacles sweeping back and forth through the gaps in the deck.

"Snap..."

Just as Han Fei was trying to peek through the gaps, a knife whizzed past the lid and stuck in a bit.

Then he heard the sound of a whip cracking in the air and the sound of rocks hitting the boat, making his ears ring.

"Swallow..."

"Damn, it's so dangerous. Tentacle shrimp, cutlassfish, and blue-armored fish are all here?"

After a few minutes, "snap," a shrimp leg pierced through the lid.

"Mr. Shrimp, big brother, please go away!"

Han Fei held his breath. If a tentacle shrimp got in, he would be cut into pieces!

"Hmm, maybe I can absorb it..."

Han Fei immediately grabbed the shrimp leg and wouldn't let go.

"Absorb! Spirit Qi Refining Cauldron, absorb it to death..."

"Bang..."

The fish hold lid almost flew off.

At first, the tentacle shrimp resisted fiercely, its tentacles smashing against the deck, almost flipping the lid several times. But eventually, the struggle weakened, and the shrimp leg lost its strength. Han Fei was overjoyed. Indeed, the Spirit Qi Refining Cauldron was useful.

After nearly five minutes, Han Fei felt the shrimp leg in his arms stop struggling. It seemed the shrimp's Spirit Qi had been completely absorbed.

"Let you show off, not enough to be fierce outside, you want to come into the fish hold? Are you overconfident, or am I too weak to wield a knife?"

Han Fei muttered to himself.

After another four or five minutes, the sounds on the deck gradually faded. Many fish seemed to have jumped back into the sea. Only then did Han Fei dare to open the lid a little bit.

A large yellow croaker was startled and hit Han Fei in the head, making his eyes water with pain.

After confirming there were no dangerous creatures on the boat, Han Fei immediately jumped out of the fish hold. The deck was a mess, with many large yellow croakers and small white fish cut into pieces. Even a cutlassfish had been cut in half.

In addition, the deck was covered with rocks thrown by blue-armored fish. At least three blue-armored fish were dead on the deck, some cut by knives, some cut in half.

This scene made Han Fei's heart race. How powerful was that tentacle shrimp, able to cut through blue-armored fish?

Turning around, Han Fei looked at the three-meter-long tentacle shrimp, which looked like a cooked lobster. The only difference was that the tentacle shrimp had a particularly large head, a short body, and long tentacles. Its eyes looked like two pieces of dry wood, and it was now limp on the deck.

However, Han Fei was overjoyed. His Spirit Qi value had increased to 156, meaning the tentacle shrimp had provided him with 48 points of Spirit Qi, equivalent to a bowl of Spirit Qi fish soup.

Moreover, this was an eight-person fishing boat with eight fish holds. Except for the deck and the fish hold he had hidden in, almost all the fish holds were full of fish.

Han Fei swore he had never felt so good. He had fished for a day and a night and caught only a dozen or so fish, but in just five minutes, he had more fish than he had caught all day. He suddenly felt like a rich man.

"Ha ha ha..."

Han Fei laughed, rubbing his eyes, which had dark circles, and counting on his fingers, muttering to himself.

"There are too many small white fish; the gourd can swallow forty or fifty... There are also many large yellow croakers; the gourd can swallow twenty or thirty... Hmm, why is the water in this fish hold red?"

Just as Han Fei was about to check the fish hold, he saw a long thing move through it.

"Damn..."

Han Fei instinctively kicked the lid shut. If he was right, it was a snake-like cutlassfish. Yesterday, one of these fish had killed half the people on a boat. If it got out, he wouldn't stand a chance and could end up with a hole in his body.

Han Fei decided to let the experts open this hold when they returned to the port.

So, Han Fei held a large yellow croaker in one hand and a blue-armored fish in the other, absorbing their Spirit Qi and then kicking their bodies overboard. Although he knew he could sell them even after absorbing their Spirit Qi, his secret was more important.

After about ten minutes, Han Fei looked at the Spirit Qi Refining Cauldron again.

Spirit Qi Refining Cauldron

Owner: Han Fei

Level: 3 (Fisherman Beginner)

Spirit Qi: 814 (60)

Spirit Meridian: Level 1 (Incomplete) [Upgradable]

Main Cultivation Technique: "Soul Fishing Technique" Chapter 1: "Immovable Technique"

Han Fei was shocked to see 814 points of Spirit Qi. This meant he had absorbed over a hundred fish, nearly 700 points of Spirit Qi?

Han Fei's breathing quickened. The Spirit Qi in the Spirit Qi Refining Cauldron could indeed stack without limit.

Lying on the deck, basking in the sun, Han Fei was secretly delighted. He had thought it would take a long time to accumulate 1000 points of Spirit Qi, but it had been enough in just one night.

"Should I try again tomorrow night?"

Han Fei didn't know that if he told others about this, they would think he was crazy. Who would dare cultivate in the morning light, which could burn a person to ashes in an instant?

After cleaning the fishing boat a bit and leaving some traces, he cut off the tentacle shrimp's tentacles and kicked the entire shrimp into the water. Otherwise, a complete, large shrimp would be impossible to explain.

The sun had already risen, and fishing boats were beginning to descend from the sky.

One of them was heading straight for Han Fei's fishing boat.
