Watching the electric eels frantically scramble for food in the water, Xu Yang smiled and turned to leave.

He had set up two breeding bases on the small island, on the east and west coasts, respectively.

On the West Coast, he built net cages to breed a large number of ordinary fish species, as well as various precious alien fish.

The East Coast, however, retained its original appearance, breeding only one type of fish—that was the electric eel he had painstakingly sought after with great effort.

Other fish species, only alien fish, were qualified to feed on White Jade Rice.

But for these electric eels, even ordinary ones, Xu Yang also fed them with White Jade Rice.

Apart from White Jade Rice, Xu Yang also caught a large number of fish and shrimp daily for meat, provided the maximum support to the electric eel group, and continuously consumed his own cultivation power to refine the special spirit monsters among the electric eels, cultivating an Electric Eel King.

With such an unrestrained investment, the electric eels grew rapidly. In just three years, over a thousand electric eels had matured, and he had also bred several dozen alien electric eels, more than ten spirit monster electric eels, and one demon monster-level Electric Eel King, which was his strongest alien beast, its growth even outpacing that of the Golden Eagle.

Why did Xu Yang value the cultivation of electric eels so much?

It was not just because of the “thunder’s” power, but also because they had one great utility.

He brought another two bags of White Jade Rice, poured them into the lake for the electric eels to scramble for, and then returned to the breeding base on the West Coast to take the Green Fish that was prepared as an ingredient back to his cabin.

This Green Fish was a spirit monster, seven feet in length and weighing over a thousand pounds.

Enough for a “whole fish banquet!”

Xu Yang picked up a knife and skillfully began to butcher.

The fish head was split in two, each half then divided into four, one half seasoned with chopped chili peppers, the other half steamed!

The fish flesh was finely sliced, clear and translucent. Half was placed on ice to be eaten raw with condiments such as scallions, ginger, perilla, spicy oil, while the other half was boiled and dressed with a mouth-numbing and spicy sauce, placed in a clay pot to keep the hot pot at the correct temperature.

There were also the fried fish bones, spicy stir-fried fish bladders, and the pan-seared fish tail… the entire Green Fish was used without waste, each part delicious.

Even the fish scales, after being deep-fried, were crispy and tasty, fragrantly spicy and delicious.

Thus, the “whole fish banquet” was served.

A spirit monster level Green Fish, after Xu Yang’s cooking and with various special effects from his “culinary skills,” its effects were no less than those of spirit pills.

Even so, Xu Yang was not satisfied. He also brought out a pot of rice steamed with a mixture of White Jade and yellow jade rice.

Although there were no guests, somewhat lonely, enjoying such a feast on one’s own was also one of life’s pleasures.

“Eat!”

Xu Yang picked up his bowl and chopsticks, gently smiled, and enjoyed the fruits of his labor.

This meal lasted nearly half an hour.

A whole fish banquet, nearly a thousand pounds of fish flesh, plus a hundred pounds of White Jade Rice, ten pounds of yellow jade rice, as well as some garnishes and side dishes, wine and delicacies, all went into Xu Yang’s stomach.

Daily Devour One Ox, effortless.

This was just his human form. If transformed into the Green Jiao Fish Dragon in the Blackwater River, with the ability to “Daily Devour Ten Oxen,” these dishes wouldn’t even be enough as an appetizer.

After eating and drinking to his heart’s content, Xu Yang stood up and opened a box, which was filled with various bottles and jars of potions.

Not wasting any time, he picked up a bottle, pulled out the cork, and poured it directly into his mouth, gulping down the entire bottle of potion.

These potions were all crafted by him in disguise over the years, traveling through the provinces, purchasing raw materials from various pharmacies, and refining them personally. Although they were not considered genuine spirit pills, they did have numerous tonic effects.

A common martial artist, even one with True Gang cultivation, would find one bottle sufficient for half a month’s training.

But one bottle was not enough for him. After finishing one, he immediately started on another, tossing back dozens of bottles from the box like they were candy beans and stuffing them all into his stomach.

If it were anyone else, such a way of consumption, not to say it would cause their body to burst and perish, would at least lead to Qi Blood backlash,

But he was just fine as if nothing had happened, and after eating, he took off his outer garment, bared his chest, and headed out towards the East Coast. On the shore of the East Coast, groups of electric eels, also full and satisfied.

Without a word, Xu Yang arrived and leaped into the water.

“Gurgle gurgle!”

As Xu Yang plunged into the water, he assumed a meditative posture, with thousands of electric eels swimming over of their own accord to surround him.

“Begin! ”

Xu Yang remained motionless, conveying his wish with his mind. The electric eels received the “Dragon King’s command” and immediately activated the electric currents within their bodies.

“Crackle, crackle, crackle!”

Thousands of electric eels exerted their power, including the demon monster-level Electric Eel King and dozens of spirit monster alien electric eels, to generate a pale golden electric net around Xu Yang’s body, beginning to electrocute him.

Indeed, electrocute!

Xu Yang wanted them to electrocute himself.

This was the main reason he spared no expense in cultivating electric eels.

He wanted these electric eels… to aid his cultivation!

This method was known as “Thunder Lightning Body Training.”

The human body itself contains bioelectricity, functioning based on bioelectricity to complete neural responses and to control movements.

Therefore, theoretically, electric shocks can stimulate the body, aiding its growth and evolution.

But this is only a theory, and in practice, it is very hard to succeed. In the worlds of Great Zhou and Great Tang, many extreme madmen have created the martial arts scripture “Heavenly Thunder Tempering.”

However, most of those who trained in this scripture were struck dead by lightning, with the remaining either ending up with various degrees of electric shock disabilities or a very few, one in ten thousand cases, achieving success.

It simply couldn’t be replicated.

It wasn’t until later that Xu Yang incorporated these martial arts scriptures into the Martial Arts Scripture, painstakingly creating the Heavenly Thunder Tempering Mana Point by combining everyone’s collective wisdom, which barely allowed practitioners to avoid being struck dead by lightning.

However, such Heavenly Thunder Tempering was, to be candid, a gradual process, replacing the fierce heavenly thunder with mild electric shocks, which severely limited the results. And in the end, there was no way to withstand the true tempering of heavenly thunder, or else one would surely turn to ashes.
