Douluo Continent II: The Dragon Breaks the Nine Heavens

Chapter 374 There's no fish you can't catch, the Sea Princess

"Fishing..." Hyotei leaned closer to Lin Yun and asked curiously, "Your Excellency, you've been out of the market for three days already, why are you still thinking about fishing?"

"Can you catch anything...?"

"Tch, what does this little brat know!" Lin Yun scoffed, crossing his arms arrogantly. "There's no fish you can't catch. The only difference is whether your bait is enough to make the fish you want bite at all costs!"

And just then, Lin Yun had already prepared the bait that would make the target come to bite the hook no matter what!

Faced with Hyotei's suspicious expression, Lin Yun calmly touched his storage soul tool. Whether he was truly an air force member or not, his next move would speak for itself; facts would prevail!

A flash of blue-white light appeared, and a round bead the size of a fingernail, made of material like fine white jade, appeared in Lin Yun's hand.

"This is... the remains of that flesh worm?" Hyotei was all too familiar with the scent of the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm. The moment he smelled it, Hyotei felt his mouth water.

Oh my, it smells so good!

Seeing this, Lin Yun quickly pressed down on Hyotei's head, afraid that she would rush over and eat the bead.

That's right, this is the remains that Di Tian snatched back from Tianmeng Ice Silkworm when Huo Yuhao and Tianmeng Ice Silkworm merged. After all, he spared Huo Yuhao's life, so he had to leave some money to buy his life back, right?

This remains are quite good, a nice find!

That's awesome!

Don't be fooled by the fact that this thing is just a skin now. To be honest, its current value is not much less than that of the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm's soul ring. If Lin Yun wanted, he could even team up with Ilex to absorb this remains as a kind of external soul bone in an unconventional way.

Long Aotian was practically drooling with envy. If he could absorb this remains, his skin, his original martial soul, and even his spirit bone armor would be enhanced.

Even if it's not absorbed as an external soul bone, it's still an excellent material for crafting divine artifacts. While making divine artifact gifts for the Ice and Snow Emperors, Lin Yun didn't forget to make a piece of clothing for himself.

The main material is this remains.

"After realizing I could no longer escape, I consciously began to nourish my body with the pure energy within me." This is what Tianmeng Bingcan said to Huo Yuhao in the original novel.

In other words, the interior of this remains had already been nourished by a large amount of ten-thousand-year-old Xuanbing marrow energy.

Otherwise, if it's just a shell, how could it make Hyotei drool?

She really wanted to eat it!

"Do you believe me now?" Lin Yun looked at Hyotei, who was swallowing hard, with a half-smile. "I told you, whether you catch fish or not depends on how attractive your bait is to them."

"And me... what I'm best at is technology and ruthless skills!"

Lin Yun held the remains between two fingers, then touched his brow with his hand. A rich life force immediately spread out, and when he opened his palm again, a drop of liquid life gold the size of a teardrop floated in his palm.

That doesn't seem quite right.

Only metal formed from the solidification of life force can be called the Metal of Life. Lin Yun's Metal of Life is a liquid form of life force that he separated and diluted from his own Metal of Life. It would be more appropriate to call it "Original Liquid of Life".

So, here's the question.

A portion of a million-year-old soul beast's physical body, the energy of ten-thousand-year-old Xuanbing marrow, and abundant life force. What will happen when these three rare and precious materials are combined?

The next second, Lin Yun gave his answer.

With a flick of his finger, the life essence merged into the remains of Tianmeng. The vibrant emerald green color dyed the jade-like remains a beautiful jade color, making the entire body resemble the noblest imperial green jade.

At the same time, massive energy fluctuations emanated from the remains and began to spread in all directions.

When this energy fluctuation appeared, Ice Empress's already drooling expression became even more filled with undisguised desire. Even Emperor Tian and Snow Empress beside her showed a hint of interest on their faces.

The soul beasts' instincts told them that as long as they ate what Lin Yun was holding, their strength would be greatly enhanced.

If even the three ferocious beast kings reacted this way, the other soul beasts in the sea beneath their feet were even more so. They rushed to emerge from the water, their eyes filled with greed and desire. Some of the less intelligent sea soul beasts even launched direct attacks on Lin Yun and his companions.

However, sea spirit beasts are sea spirit beasts after all. Without 100,000 years of cultivation, they cannot even leave the ocean and cannot fly at all.

They can only jump around on the surface of the sea. Being able to jump dozens of meters out of the sea is already considered impressive, let alone attacking Lin Yun and others who are flying hundreds of meters in the sky.

Unable to attack Lin Yun and his companions, and driven by their instincts, these sea spirit beasts began to fight each other on the sea surface. Already flushed with blood, the sea, stimulated by the smell of blood from some wounded sea spirit beasts, suddenly seemed to boil, constantly bursting with splashes.

Of course, there were also patches of seawater stained red with blood.

"Oh my, that's a bit of an exaggeration." Lin Yun raised an eyebrow, his tone tinged with surprise.

Good heavens, this is far more effective than that scoundrel's attempt to attract soul beasts with the fragrance of the Fairy Flower. Not to mention attracting soul beasts, the group of soul beasts under his feet are practically beating their brains out.

In just a short while, a large number of yellow and purple spirit rings appeared in front of Lin Yun, and there were even ten-thousand-year spirit beasts, such as ants that could kill elephants by biting them, and deep, heavy black spirit rings that were surrounded and killed. These spirit rings forced the surrounding hundred-year and thousand-year spirit rings back a distance, leaving only the ten-thousand-year spirit ring in the very center.

"So... I've already laid out such tempting bait, aren't you going to take the bait?" Lin Yun murmured softly.

As if in response to his whisper, a sharp, penetrating high-pitched sound suddenly erupted from the depths of the sea. Upon hearing this sound, the sea spirit beasts, who were caught in a frenzied killing spree, all obediently stopped their fighting.

One by one, the sea spirit beasts parted an empty sea area in an orderly fashion. Azure light shone from the depths of the seabed, and then rushed out of the sea at an extremely fast speed, finally stopping in front of Lin Yun and the others.

Clear water droplets slid down her shapely body. Her long, sky-blue hair, like beautiful seaweed, was slightly curled and cascaded down her back. Two seashells covered her chest, and semi-transparent, dreamy ribbons were woven into a dress-like garment on her body.

Of course, what is most eye-catching is her lower body, which is not human legs, but a gorgeous fish tail covered with colorful scales.

The fish Lin Yun wanted to catch took the bait.

The Sea Princess, a ferocious beast that has existed for 600,000 years.
