Chapter 1043 The Dragon Fish King's Tribulation
Chapter 1043 The Dragon Fish King's Tribulation
"These fish seem to be helping a soul beast overcome its tribulation; they are resisting the lightning tribulation."
After observing for a long time and thinking for a moment, Tang Lan spoke with some surprise.
After Tang Lan reminded them, Long Yao and Bell suddenly realized what was going on.
Both of them stared wide-eyed, as if they had discovered a continent, watching everything intently.
Lightning flashed across a large area of the sea. Although some fish managed to block the lightning, the remaining power was still terrifying.
Large numbers of fish were chopped to death, and they floated densely on the sea surface.
But a steady stream of fish continued to surge out of the seabed, awaiting the arrival of the second wave of lightning.
Boom~~
Thunder descended, and the terrifying, destructive lightning pulverized the first wave of fish that rushed forward.
Even the aftershocks destroyed countless schools of fish, leaving only the sea surface covered with their carcasses.
"Aww!!"
Just then, a voice that sounded like a dragon but wasn't quite a dragon resounded throughout the surrounding sea.
A whirlpool suddenly appeared on the sea surface, and then a huge red figure suddenly appeared.
Bell exclaimed, "My goodness! This is a giant red carp that's tens of thousands of years old! How can there be such a huge carp in this world?!"
Tang Lan and Long Yao both looked surprised upon seeing this.
Carp are usually a dish on human tables, but no one expected that there would be a carp that could cultivate to the point of transcending tribulations.
"Judging from the appearance of this carp, it should be a red-scaled dragonfish, which also has a trace of dragon blood."
"I never imagined that there could be a Red Forest Dragonfish that had grown to such a level. This Sea of Death is truly a magical place."
While Long Yao's research on sea spirit beasts may not be considered extensive, she has certainly read many books in the Huanglong Sect's library.
The Red-Scaled Dragonfish is recorded and described on the first few pages of the Sea Soul Beast Compendium, and it is the weakest of the sea soul beasts.
However, they possess a unique skill: the call of blood.
Any red-scaled dragonfish with a cultivation level of a thousand years can summon low-level soul beasts within a radius of several miles to fight for it.
However, most Red Phosphorus Dragonfish are captured by human Soul Masters and made into nourishing food before they reach a thousand years old, or they are eaten by other Soul Beasts.
Although the red phosphorus arowana does not reproduce extremely quickly and has a very large population, no particularly powerful arowanas have emerged.
Even if they exist, they are extremely rare, and the ten-thousand-year-old red phosphorus dragonfish is almost never seen in the waters near the mainland.
"If I'm not mistaken, this Red Phosphorus Dragonfish King should be a powerful soul beast undergoing the tribulation of a hundred thousand years of soul beast life."
"If this guy successfully transcends the tribulation, then what awaits him is a long lifespan of up to 200,000 years."
"If it fails, this thing will perish, and its flesh and bones will be devoured by other fish in the sea, accelerating the cultivation growth of these fish."
Tang Lan revealed the most cruel and real side of the soul beast world.
This is the way of survival for weak races; the saying "one whale falls and all things live" probably describes such races.
Whether or not this guy succeeds, it will be a significant process of reproduction for their tribe.
"This should be the last tribulation. If he survives, his dragon bloodline will become even stronger, and his strength will be greatly enhanced afterward."
"But over the years, the vast majority of 100,000-year-old soul beasts have failed to take that step; the success rate is extremely low."
Tang Lan commented with a serious expression.
The sight of the thunder dragon brewing in the clouds above the heavens is incredibly oppressive.
This final tribulation was even more terrifying than the previous two combined. It gave everyone almost no time to think before the tribulation transformed into a giant lightning dragon and plunged straight down.
The Red Phosphorus Arowana King roared angrily, as if denouncing the injustice of the heavens.
Immediately, its mountain-like body leaped out of the sponge and charged straight at the thunder dragon above.
The dazzling blue lightning collided with the intense red light, and the terrifying soul power fluctuations spread for dozens of miles.
Tang Lan and the others felt a momentary loss of hearing, and even the things in front of them could not be seen clearly due to the bright light.
As the aftershocks gradually subsided, the entire area fell silent.
The dark clouds dispersed, revealing a long-awaited blue sky and bright sunshine.
The sea became calm, and a blue-red light was slowly falling from the sky.
The three looked up and saw that the person was the Red Phosphorus Dragonfish King, whose flesh and blood had been completely devoured by the lightning.
At this moment, the Red Phosphorus Arowana King was nothing but a skeleton, with no trace of life left in its body.
Only subconscious actions remained, using the last ounce of strength to drag the mangled body into the sea.
Long Yao looked confused and disappointed, and asked, "Did we fail?"
The latest novel is first published here!
"A red-scaled arowana that had cultivated to this level actually failed just like that."
"Who is taking away their right to live? Why can't we give them a chance?"
Long Yao was somewhat confused, and even a little angry.
Because there was a severely injured three-eyed macaque on his body.
Before that guy's time was up, he was found by a human soul beast and severely injured and imprisoned.
These repeated calamities befell the soul beasts, and their survival seemed to be even worse than that of humans.
"It's too late, it's all too late, let's go!"
"Before long, even more powerful soul beasts will smell the scent and come to devour the corpse of this 100,000-year-old soul beast."
"The mysterious soul beast we encountered before may also come here, and this place will become a monster pasture."
We humans will be ganged up on here.
At first, Bell didn't react much, but when the red phosphorus dragonfish, with only its skeleton and scattered pieces of flesh, fell into the sea, he completely panicked.
The corpse of a 100,000-year-old soul beast is a great tonic for any soul beast, including those powerful soul beasts that live in the depths of the Sea of Death.
"Wait a minute!"
However, Tang Lan's expression turned strange at this moment.
After saying that, Tang Lan opened the warehouse door, summoned the Bone Dragon Wings, and rushed swiftly towards the place where the red phosphorus dragon fish corpse had fallen in the distance.
"Damn, Tang Lan is insane. Let's drive a bit further away and wait for him to come back."
"While the remains of that thing are certainly valuable, it would also attract attacks from other soul beasts, making it a losing proposition."
When Bell saw Tang Lan rush out, he couldn't help but swear.
They immediately steered the soul boat to continue sailing further away. Neither of them possessed Tang Lan's terrifying speed, so they still had to rely on the soul boat for their safety.
On the other side, Tang Lan quickly arrived in front of the Red Phosphorus Dragonfish skeleton.
His gaze swept across the sea, and he couldn't help but ask, "Where exactly is it? I clearly felt it just now!"
"There!"
After searching for quite some time, Tang Lan finally spotted a 90,000-year-old devilish double-tailed shark in the distance, carrying the head of a red-scaled dragonfish as it sped away. (End of Chapter)
