Fishing the Myriad Heavens

Chapter 239: Improving By Leaps And Bounds!

Translator: AstralGhost Editor: Kurisu

A scene filled with a desolate and archaic air was revealed behind the huge pillar, giving one a feeling of having traveled several thousand years back in time.

On the other side of the pillar was a lava lake which was constantly emitting copious amounts of smoke. This lava lake was undoubtedly much smaller than the lake at the entrance, but this one was actually golden in color! The space around it was so hot that it appeared illusory because of the intense heat waves.

Within the golden lava lake were sixteen gigantic bear carcasses. All the carcasses looked complete and undamaged, as if they were only asleep.

Bei Feng regained his senses and steadied himself. These Giant Bears had obviously lost all their life force and were already dead for countless years.

Still, even the smallest Giant Bear was over ten meters tall! On the back of its snow-white fur was a small pair of wings about the size of a palm.

An ancient aura emanated from each of the carcasses, filling the entire lava lake.

"Eh? Is that the smell of herbs? What shocking medicinal strength!"

Bei Feng sniffed intently. A hint of herbal fragrance resembling that of black plums could be detected in the sulfur infused air.

A mere sniff was enough to stir up Bei Feng's blood and Qi, so one could easily imagine the medicinal strength of a fruit like this!

A circle of black rocks surrounded the middle of the golden lava lake, saturating a ten-meter-size space. Within that circle, a blood-red vine was directly rooted in the lava!

This vine did not have any leaves, and was as thick as an ordinary person's arm. Its surface was covered in layers of pseudo-draconic scales. There were only a few branches on the vine, but a huge red fruit the size of a skull could be seen on the center-most branch.

Bei Feng did not rush into the golden lava lake despite the number of shocking treasures within it. Instead, he remained on the platform and began to practice the Bear Form Style.

"Pa! Pa!"

Crisp, popping sounds filled the empty cavern. This was not a result of Bei Feng's bones crackling. Rather, his moves were too fast, each causing a crisp sound as it impacted the air.

The Bear Manifestation appeared on his back and raised its head with a ferocious roar. The roar seemed to have set off a chain reaction as numerous ten-meter-tall Giant Bear Manifestations appeared within the cavern and joined together to roar at the sky!

Although they were significantly taller and appeared more ferocious, these tens of Bear Manifestations were vastly inferior to Bei Feng's in terms of realism. They looked more like illusory shadows!

As he revolved the Bear Form Style technique, streams of thick energy flowed continuously into his Bear Manifestation, causing the Bear Manifestation to roar endlessly with pleasure. At the same time, its size slowly began to grow as well!

Some of the energy also flowed into Bei Feng's body, further refining his blood and Qi!

Every single cell in his body was rejoicing as they swallowed the energy greedily. At this time, a layer of membrane as thin as a piece of paper was forming underneath his skin.

His cells had also become stronger, and their capacity to contain more energy had been increased as well!

Bei Feng had entered a state of thoughtlessness as he indulged in the marvelous feeling of cultivation. His aura fluctuated wildly, as though he could ascend and become a deity at any moment!

Many areas which he previously did not understand about the Bear Form Style became easily comprehensible in that moment. All the books that he'd ever read, and everything he'd seen in his life began to merge and present itself in a new way to him. Countless inspirations burst forth in his mind, sparking off various wonderful understandings!

At this time, Bei Feng had finally comprehended the true meaning of the Form and Will Fist. The fist strikes in accordance to will, and will flows in accordance with the heart!

It was unclear how much time had passed, but Bei Feng finally awoke when the strange energy stopped flowing into his Bear Manifestation, and the illusory shadows of the Giant Bears had dissipated.

Bei Feng clenched his fist and sent a punch outwards. Following his will, the Bear Manifestation behind him which had grown to a height of ten meters also struck out in the exact same manner!

"Boom!"

A two, three meter thick and several tens of meter tall wall was directly blasted apart, causing a huge hole about twenty, thirty meters to appear within it! Large chunks of rock flew everywhere, dropping into the lava lake and causing huge waves of lava to splash upwards!

Bei Feng looked at the results of his strike without any surprise. Not only had his cultivation improved greatly, his mental power had similarly improved by leaps and bounds!

The area he could cover with his mental power had now improved to twenty meters! Within the twenty meters around him, not even the movement of a blade of grass would be able to escape Bei Feng's detection!

Such a bountiful amount of mental power, along with the state of thoughtlessness he'd entered a moment ago, allowed him to have sufficient ability to control the increase in his cultivation. There would not be a situation where he lost control of his strength again!

As the Bear Manifestation behind him reached a height of over ten meters, the power of the Bear Form Style had increased by at least ten times!

Adding all these factors together, although Bei Feng was currently only at the peak early Xiantian stage, he would have nothing to fear even against late stage Xiantian Lords! In fact, he might have a chance to beat late stage Xiantian Lords in a fair confrontation!

The Bear Manifestation disappeared as Bei Feng relaxed his stance. At the end of the day, the Bear Manifestation was something that would only appear when he executed the Bear Form Style. It was a technique capable of amplifying his strength by several times!

But when he was not executing the Bear Form Style, the Bear Manifestation would naturally disappear.

"Many thanks!"

Bei Feng clasped his fists and bowed deeply towards the golden lava lake where the Giant Bears' carcasses had crumbled apart into dust.

It was important for a person to know gratitude. Even though the Giant Bears here had died long ago, they had ultimately helped him out. In the end, even their corpses were not left behind. Such grace was definitely worthy of his bow!

"Gru, gru!"

Bei Feng's stomach growled intensely all of a sudden, almost as if it were about to fold in on itself. With a thought, a large piece of Dark Jade Snowy Dragon King meat appeared in his hand.

Without bothering to cook the meat, he sliced it into small pieces, dipped the meat in sauce, and began eating.

The large amounts of energy transformed into fuel for his body and replenished the energy in his cells, causing his body to grow even stronger!

Having eaten to his fill, Bei Feng's condition was at its peak. His entire body was bursting with energy!

Even if Ryuzu Shisei was standing before him right now, Bei Feng had the confidence that he would be able to defeat the latter even if he did not rely on his flying dagger!

Bei Feng walked over to the edge of the platform and looked over at the golden lava lake. He had not rushed to go over earlier because he had discovered a small detail.

On a flat rock in the distance, there was the upper portion of a pale white snake skin! Although he could not imagine any creatures being able to survive in such a hostile environment, the facts were before his eyes, and Bei Feng could not afford to be careless!

"Could it be that this snake lives in the lava lake? But how is that possible!?"

As much as he did not want to believe such a strange thing, he had no choice but to accept the fact. After all, the snake skin was lying right before his eyes!

"Hm. I got it! Who cares what kind of creature you are? Wouldn't I know after fishing you up?"

With a move of his intent, the Fusang Wood Fishing Rod appeared in his hands.

Without a second word, he attached an infant fist-sized piece of Dark Jade Snowy Dragon King meat to the hook and cast it towards the lava lake.

The piece of meat hung right above the lava lake, stopping just short of being submerged.

The large cavern was completely silent save for the bubbling sounds of lava and escaping sulfuric gases. Bei Feng sat down cross legged like a patient old man as he waited.

Time passed slowly, and the piece of meat on the hook began to emanate a tempting fragrance as it cooked above the scorching lava.

Half an hour later, the meat had completely dried, and its surface had also turned into a charred black.

"I don't believe that you will be able to keep enduring!"

Bei Feng snorted coldly and began to reel in the line as he prepared a new piece of meat.
