Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
The next day, the prisoners got up from the ground with their faces covered in dust. They had been sleeping soundly, but were awoken by the sudden sound of thunder in the middle of the night.
They had initially thought that it was just a normal rainstorm, and had sought shelter as they prepared to rest amidst the storm, However, the sound they heard was not actually thunder.
It was the roar of a monster from the depths of the Netherworld Sea. The roar of this monster was as terrifying as thunder from the heavens!
Then, the ground shook. The Netherworld Sea prison was once again pushed into the distance by the huge waves. It was a very exciting scene.
The weather was clear and cloudless. A gentle breeze blew over from the surface of the Netherworld Sea, causing some ripples.
!!
“Yuchi, how was your sleep last night?”
The prisoners found Yuchi, who was sitting by the sea and fishing quietly. They laughed and chatted about the earth-shaking scene last night.
When they looked up into the distance last night, they could vaguely see a huge towering shadow in the sky.
The visage of the giant python that seemed to cover the entire sky was extremely terrifying and shocking.
This situation was similar to the Lightning Dragon incident that had taken place a long time ago.
However, this time, the phenomenon did not last as long as the last time, with only about two hours elapsing.
The prisoners did not know that Yuchi was much stronger than back then. If he were to face the World Python back then, it would definitely have been more ferocious than the Three-headed Naga Siren.
Then, while the prisoners were sitting and chatting, Yuchi took a quick look at the contents of the illustrated compendium.
[Catch: Netherworld Sea – World Python]
[Grade: SS]
[Attribute: Ghost]
[Skill 1: Gluttony]
[Skill 2: Imbibe]
[Skill 3: Swallow]
[Skill 4: Strangle]
[Introduction: The World Python was one of the kings of the ancient Netherworld Sea. It was extremely irritable and cunning, but it was loyal to its goddess. It died in the north section of the Netherworld Sea. It was said that its body sank to the bottom of the sea. Its head bit its tail, turning it into a giant mountain. Even in death it intimidated its surroundings.]
From the description, one could already tell how terrifying this giant python was.
Just like the Three-headed Naga Siren, the giant python had four skills, and these four skills were all related to its hunting habits.
[Gluttony:
After the World Python devours its prey, this skill greatly increases its physical strength for a certain period of time.]
[Imbibe:
The World Python can drink Netherworld Sea water to strengthen its body for a certain period of time.]
[Swallow:
The World Python can savagely swallow its enemy, using its aura to torture and kill the enemy.]
[Strangle:
The World Python can control Netherworld Sea water and use it to create countless pythons. When these pythons touch their enemies, they will link their heads and tails together like a chain and strangle their enemies to death.]

From the perspective of the World Python, these four skills were really powerful, since they were all related to its hunting environment and habits.
However, for Yuchi, these skills were inevitably somewhat useless, especially in terms of how usable these skills were. The conditions for usage were only suitable if one had the form and size of the World Python.
Take for example the Swallow skill.
How could he eat the enemy in one bite? Yuchi had the body of a regular human male.
While the other skills were truly powerful, especially when the World Python used them on him. He had almost died several times.
However, in reality, there were no skills that Yuchi could use among those four skills.
What was the criteria of a good skill?
Disregarding everything else, it had to at least be universal and not only usable under specific circumstances.
These four skills of the World Python clearly did not fulfill this criteria.
[Name: Yuchi]
[Constitution: 46688]
[Strength: 46688]
[Speed: 46688]
[Skill 1: Thunder Dragon’s Fury. Summon the Thunder Dragon to assist you, making your enemies tremble.]
[Skill 2: Enrage. Pain brings strength, pain brings resistance, and pain brings joy.]
[Skill 3: Hellfire. Hurl clusters of blinding hellfire to burn your enemies like maggots!]
[Skill 4: Blood Spike. Gather the blood essence and qi in your body and use them to condense a blood spike. The wounds caused by it are extremely difficult to heal and will bleed continuously!]
The above were Yuchi’s current stats. All of his attributes had already climbed to 46688.
His attributes made him almost equivalent to an SS+ grade soul beast!
He was only one step away from the SSS-grade! He had reached a realm that would make all of the experts in human cities tremble in fear!
A true overlord!
It was rather terrifying.
In the human cities, an SS-grade beast tamer would already be in charge of an entire region. Even though Yuchi had not broken through to the SSS-grade just yet, his strength was already far beyond their imagination.
If Yuchi wanted to, he could massacre the human race’s cities.
Furthermore, he could guarantee that he would emerge completely unscathed.
Unless some old experts among the beast tamers appeared to fight him, he had nothing to fear.
“The true qi in my body is much denser now.”
“When I just broke through to the martial flame realm, the true qi in my body was almost like a meandering stream.”
“But now, it’s like the Yellow River or the Yangtze River. The power that fills my body is the best proof of my increased strength!”
Yuchi looked at his palm.
He could see a tiny sliver of true qi slowly flowing along the veins of the palm of his hand!
After reading so many books, he knew would be able to start cultivating and refining his spirit when his meridians were filled with true qi!
This was the Divine realm, a legendary existence!
At this level, Yuchi would have the power to do whatever he wanted within the human race’s territory. No human would possess the strength to stop him.
However, he was still some distance away from that goal.
“I’ve already hunted the Three-headed Naga Siren and defeated the World Python.”
“The last one is the Siren!”
“After the Siren is defeated, I will have the opportunity to encounter Medusa!”
“I wonder what the true combat strength of this legendary goddess is!”
Yuchi really wanted to live in the ancient era, when all those ancient monsters were at their peak. Then he would not have to fight with these ancient Netherworld Sea monsters that had died many years ago, who were weakened by the sands of time.
He felt indignant for these ancient existences.
After being dead for so many years, and having their strength sapped by the sands of time, they were awakened by a junior and given a brutal beating. Let alone the ancient existences in question, any normal person would feel somewhat bad for them.
“I wonder what kind of strength the myriad races in this world possess?”
“When I break through to the spirit refinement realm in the future, I’ll go look for a new ocean or sea and see how strong these so-called myriad races are!”
“I hope they won’t disappoint me.”
Yuchi thought calmly.
The prisoners beside him were also talking to each other animatedly.
They were in the same Netherworld Sea, the same prison, the same shore, and they were all prisoners, yet his thoughts were different from the rest of the prisoners here.
Suddenly, a prisoner asked Yuchi a question, “There are only a few years left before you’ll be released from prison. What do you want to do after that?”
Yuchi was stunned for a moment.
Then, under the curious gazes of the other prisoners, he shyly gestured toward the simple fishing rod in his hand.
“Fishing.”
The prisoners fell silent immediately.
Buzzzzzz!
Yuchi was really something else.
After leaving prison, a normal person would definitely be thinking about starting a new life. After all, the road ahead was still long. Yet this guy said that he would continue fishing after leaving prison!
Just look at how addicted you are to fishing. At this rate, after you die, you will end up fishing in the River Styx.
“It seems that the previous psychologist left too quickly. We might have to invite her back to check on Yuchi,” joked one of the prisoners.
The atmosphere was quite harmonious.
While the prisoners were chatting with each other, Qin Lanyu was really in a pickle!
