The Great Wild God - Chapter 42
Chapter 42 Fish Fighting
Chen Xun was also caught off guard by the huge ice cubes. He used an iron bow to break a huge piece of ice and could jump onto the river bank. He turned around to see the dozens of barbarians. Almost no one was able to jump onto the shore in time and fell into the incomparably cold water.
Someone cried out in midair, crushing a huge chunk of ice into a mess of flesh and blood. Blood instantly dyed through the ice, snow, and river water; More people fell into the icy water and struggled.
In the blink of an eye, ice flew down from mid-air again, and the Wildlands tribesmen in the water couldn’t avoid it, screaming miserably repeatedly.
Chen Xun could only hold a giant bow in his hand and shatter the ice that had fallen nearby.
The barbarian youth’s reaction was also extremely fast. After falling into the water, he used his heavy spear to shatter a piece of ice that had fallen. He found a gap and climbed up a floating block to save the fallen tribesmen.
At this moment, a giant black-backed fish suddenly jumped up from the bottom of the river bed and plunged into the water. A huge wave of water rose up, shaking the desolate tribesmen who were struggling to climb onto the floating ice back into the water.
As the giant fish fell into the water, Chen Xun watched helplessly as a barbarian fell into the water. He ordered the giant fish to bite off its waist and half of its body was swallowed into the fish’s stomach.
Four to five meters wide, the giant head of the fish revealed its sharp, snow-white teeth. Each of them was like a sharp blade …
The barbarian youth also knew that he could not repel the strange fish. Almost everyone who fell into the water was spared. He stepped on the floating ice, raised his heavy spear, jumped high, and rushed towards the fish head.
Although the barbarian youth was two meters tall, he was still so small compared to the giant fish. With his agility, he fiercely slashed the Heavy Sharp Spear between the fish’s forehead and eyes.
The hardness of the fish forehead and the toughness of the fish skin far exceeded the imagination of ordinary people. The sharp blades on both sides of the heavy spear were unable to break the thick skin between the fish forehead’s eyes.
The barbarian youth’s attack was useless, and the heavy spear was bounced up by a tremendous backlash. Even the barbarian youth was thrown high into the air.
The strange fish also knew that the barbarian youth was a little threatening, so it immediately opened its mouth and tightened its body. It was about to jump out of the water and swallow the barbarian youth in one mouthful …
Looking at the Black Fish’s arching momentum, it actually hid an infinite amount of strength. At this moment, the light seemed to twist.
Chen Xun thought to himself that if he really wanted the strange fish to successfully leap out of the water, the barbarian youth who could not change his body in midair would not be able to escape. He immediately ignored the other people who fell into the water and locked the fish’s eyes with his Spiritual Sense as he shot out an arrow.
The strange fish’s spiritual sense was also astonishing. When the iron arrow reached its eyes, it was able to dodge the soft vital points.
At this moment, Chen Xun was already a high-grade barbaric martial artist. His spiritual sense was even more profound. He shot out an iron arrow with boundless power. Even two to three meters thick hard stones could pierce through it with one arrow. However, the fish bone was far harder than normal. The arrow shot into the fish head and four inches into its skin. It was actually difficult to penetrate the arrow in the slightest.
This strange fish had dominated the left and right waters for many years, and no human beast had been able to injure it in the slightest. At this moment, it was actually shot into half an inch of its skull by an iron arrow. It was shocked, painful, and furious. It immediately flung its tail towards the barbarian youth who was moving horizontally in mid-air. The giant fish broke through the waves of water and swam towards Chen Xun.
The barbarian youth had already changed directions in midair. He was holding a heavy spear and stabbing at the fish tail. Even if the terrifying power hidden within the fish tail was sent flying tens of meters away, it could not harm the strange fish at all.
The fish’s body was enormous, and the waves of water were as strong as landslides and rocks.
Only now did Chen Xun see the strange fish half-concealed in the water. Its head was four to five meters wide, black scales resembling armor, and its body was more than ten meters long. It was hard to imagine that there was such a huge fierce fish hidden in Wild Horse Stream.
Chen Xun was fearless, and a dark divine brilliance surfaced from his body. Man Sha gathered in both of his hands and drew an arrow to lock the fish’s eyes. He waited for the strange fish to pounce before shooting out the iron arrow in his hand.
The giant fish broke through the waves and entered a hundred meters. Suddenly, its huge mouth opened and an incomparably sharp water arrow shot through the air.
The power of the water arrow was like a mountain, invading and howling through the air.
The water arrow seemed to be condensed from the ice-cold river water, but it contained boundless strength. It was as hard as steel, and the edge of it flickered with a cold light that was extremely sharp. It gave off an immense might that no one could resist. It was as if anything that stood in front of it would be smashed into pieces!
Chen Xundang did not hesitate. The string moved like lightning, and the arrow shot out like lightning, blasting the enormous water arrow that was as powerful as a mountain into endless waves of water. He kicked the head of the fish that he had bitten behind the waves and soared into the air.
Chen Xun’s figure was steady in midair. He continuously drew arrows and shot them angrily. Three sharp arrows shot at the thick lips of the strange fish. Finally, he calmly stepped onto the shore on the ice.
At this moment, Chen Xun also felt a faint pain in his right leg when he kicked the skull of the strange fish. Chen Xun did not expect the skull of the strange fish to be so hard. He could break the iron pillar with one kick, but he could not injure it at all. If he fell into the water, he would definitely not be the enemy of the strange fish.
The strange fish also knew that Chen Xun was a tough nut to crack, so they immediately put aside Chen Xun and concentrated on hunting people who fell into the water.
Although Chen Xun wanted to save more people, he didn’t want to risk his own life and stay on the shore to shoot arrows.
Although the barbarian youth and the other two mid-tier barbarian martial artists were not of high cultivation, they were incomparably valiant and valiant.
In order to save another Fallen Water Race member, even though they knew that they were invincible, they still rushed forward with their spears, borrowed the ice or stepped on the back of the fish, and fought to the death with the strange fish to buy time for more Fallen Water Race members to flee ashore.
Fortunately, after Chen Xun cultivated the Dragon Binding Technique, his archery was profound. He locked onto the vital points of the strange fish’s eyes all the time, preventing the strange fish from using all his strength to deal with the three barbarian youths.
The barbarian youth and the other two mid-tier barbarian martial artists were still alive, but they did not lose their lives in the end. Only after almost forty to fifty of their clansmen climbed ashore did they seize the opportunity to jump ashore and stop desperately entangling with the strange fish.
Seeing that there was no one to eat in the water, the strange fish dived away with injuries. Chen Xun and the others were unable to do anything to it.
The large river was quickly packed with ice again, restoring its calm.
The surrounding fish squeezed into the ice to breathe. The fish scales flickered in the ice crevices. Only the river water and ice, called blood staining red, proved that a life-and-death battle had taken place just a few dozen breaths ago.
The three barbarian teenagers coughed up large mouthfuls of blood when they landed. They knelt on the ground and could not stand up. The horrified clansmen ran over and took out pills for him to take.
Although the barbarian youth had already reached the sixth level of the Barbarian realm, compared to the other two mid-tier barbarian warriors, they were far from enough to compare to the strange fish. If they did not use all their strength, it would be difficult for the strange fish to pose any threat to them. Moreover, if they used all their strength, the rebound force they suffered would be enormous. It was likely that their internal organs had been seriously injured in just a few exchanges.
The barbarian youth heaved a sigh of relief and struggled to stand up with the support of his clansmen to thank Chen Xun, “Thank you for your help. What are you going to do tomorrow? Come to the Black Mountain Tribe and find me. Gu Jianfeng will not decline …”
“It’s a piece of cake, don’t take it to heart.” Chen Xun smiled.
From afar, when he saw that Gu Jianfeng and the others had a string of beast teeth hanging around their necks, he guessed that they might be Montenegrin tribesmen.
When Chen Xun saw how fragile and insignificant the barbarians were in front of the ferocious might of the heavens and the ferocious beasts in the Lake Wastelands, he felt that the hatred between the tribes was truly insignificant.
In just a few dozen breaths of time, ten of Black Mountain Tribe’s tribesmen had actually lost their lives. The other Montenegrin tribesmen did not show too much grief. They could save them, but they had to save them even if they had to risk their lives. Unable to save or kill the fish belly, this was the destiny and enlightenment that a thousand-year-old barbarian clansman should have.
Living in this wilderness, everyone saw through their lives.
Therefore, even if they wanted to fight, they would still be able to fight with their lives without fear of death.
After cultivating bitterly in the Lake Wasteland, Chen Xun was able to look down on many things.
Chen Xun knew that Gu Jianfeng was the son of the Heishan tribal clan’s Elder Gu Hu. He had only heard of his name before, but he had never seen him before. He hadn’t expected that Gu Jianfeng, who was around sixteen years old, would actually have a peak sixth level Barbarian Martial Cultivation base.
If he hadn’t gone up north to cultivate for several months, he might not have been able to defeat him.
Apart from Gu Jianfeng, the other two Intermediate Barbarian Martial Cultivators were also severely injured. After consuming the spiritual medicine, one of them struggled to sit up and observe the Barbarian Souls cross-legged to stabilize their injuries.
The other person took a pill, but it was useless. He was still lying in the arms of his clansmen and vomiting blood. There were some organs in the blood. It was obvious that his internal organs had been shattered in the fierce battle just now, and his life was in danger.
Gu Jianfeng was also extremely anxious.
The most lacking thing in the tribe was spirit medicine. Just now, in order to save him, the clansmen had fed him two Blood Gathering Spirit Pills first. The other two only took one Blood Gathering Pill.
At this time, there was no spiritual medicine to save people. Apart from breaking the backs of a few big fish and squeezing out some life essence fish blood to feed the injured, Gu Jianfeng could only summon his clansmen to lift the injured up and hurry back to the stronghold.
“Wait,” Chen Xun handed a small bronze bottle of Origin Gathering Paste to Gu Jianfeng and said, “I’m afraid you won’t be able to save him if you carry him back to the Black Mountain Stronghold.”
Gu Jianfeng opened the lid of the bottle and the small bronze bottle emitted a spiritual energy that was three points stronger than the Black Mountain Tribe’s Blood Gathering Pill.
In the northern mountain of Python Fang Ridge, the tribe lacked spirit medicines the most.
The five thousand plus Montenegrins were able to refine more than a hundred Blood Gathering Pills in a year, and they were given to more than twenty savage martial practitioners who had comprehended savage souls, only four or five of them per person.
He didn’t dare to use it lightly when he wasn’t saving his life, but how much could he use it to save his life?
Although there was only a small amount of Origin Gathering Paste left in the small bronze bottle, it was worth five or six Black Mountain Tribe Blood Gathering Pills. This could be said to be a huge fortune in the northern mountain of Python Fang Ridge.
Python Fang Ridge’s effort to save people was still a trivial matter, and giving up pills was the most righteous thing.
After experiencing this bitter winter, rescuing an Intermediate Barbarian Martial Cultivator with an enlightened Barbarian Soul meant a hundred times more to the clan than to ordinary clansmen.
Chen Xun ignored Gu Jianfeng and took the Origin Gathering Ointment to save him. Seeing that the cub in his arms was still asleep, he picked up an iron arrow from the shore and inserted it into his quiver. He waited for Gu Jianfeng to feed the Origin Gathering Ointment to the barbarian martial artist before retrieving the small bronze bottle.
To ensure that the spiritual energy of medicinal herbs wouldn’t be lost, the containers used to hold medicinal pills were very exquisite.
Chen Xun only had four such small bronze bottles. They were the same set as the bronze medicine furnace. He thought that they were even more important than the Origin Gathering Paste.
Five or six Blood Gathering Pills worth of spirit ointment entered his abdomen. That Man Wu finally recovered from his menstruation and stabilized his injuries. The Yuan Gathering Pill that Su Tang had improved was even more powerful in nourishing qi and blood and repairing his wounds. He also knew that the youth in front of him was extremely grateful to him for saving his life.
The barbarian did not kowtow easily. The barbarian did not care about refining the medicinal power. Seeing Chen Xun was about to leave, he immediately turned around and knelt on the snow. He kowtowed and thanked Gu Yuan, “If Gu Yuan wanted to ask for the name of Benefactor, he would be a cow and a horse for Benefactor in the reincarnation!”
“Reincarnation?” Chen Xun thought to himself that there might really be reincarnation in the Realm of Heaven. He turned to look at Gu Yuan and smiled, “If there is a battle between the Black Mountain and the Black Python in the future, if you can not participate, then try not to participate. Forget everything else.”
Chen Xun didn’t feel that he had the ability to neutralize the enmity between the Black Python and Montenegro that had accumulated over the decades. He picked up another iron arrow that was inserted into the ice fragments, put it into an arrow bag, and turned around to head towards Python Fang Ridge …
“Black Python!” Gu Jianfeng and the others looked in the direction where Chen Xun had disappeared. They were shocked in their hearts. Sitting in the snow, they never imagined that the person who had saved them would be the Black Python Race clansman who had fought with Montenegro for many years.
