Chapter 182: Lifelike Bait!
Translator: AstralGhost Editor: Kurisu
Bei Feng stood in the yard expressionlessly as a huge snow-white wing unfurled on the right side of his back. The wing waved about gently in the wind, giving off a resplendent glow, causing him to look like a fallen angel.
‘I wonder if I can fly with a single wing...’
Bei Feng's eyes lit up as the thought flashed through his head. Flying! That was the dream of countless people since the beginning of ti, to be able to soar through the skies freely like a bird!
As soon as he thought of it, Bei Feng inserted so blood and qi energy into the wing and jumped upwards with all his might. Then, he spread out his wing fully.
"Shua!"
In an instant, he shot upwards for tens of ters with a mighty swish of the wing!
"I really flew!"
Bei Feng yelped with joy as he felt the wind swooshing against his face. He was feeling extrely agitated in his heart.
"Bam!"
Unfortunately for him, extre pleasure often ends in sorrow in this thing called life. The mont Bei Feng was basking in his arrogance of flying, he suddenly lost balance and fell down from the sky, smashing a large hole in the ground!
Bei Feng fell so hard that he was completely disoriented for a mont. After laying on the ground for a while, he got up unsteadily and shook his head as he patted off the dust on his body. Because of his robust body, that fall did not cause much damage to him. Although his blood and Qi had been a little shaken, causing him so discomfort, he only needed a short mont to solve this problem.
‘This Celestial Snow Ridge Eagle is a Grade 8 Demonic Beast, so it should be an existence above Xiantian level. And even among creatures above Xiantian level, it should be one of the top-tier ones!’
Bei Feng thought silently. In any case, he would only be able to fully access the power of the wing after he reached Xiantian realm. Right now, he could only use it as a trump card in tis of extre danger.
The wing was only about five ters wide, but its weight was unbelievable!
With a thought, the wing shrunk into his back, completely disappearing from view.
This wing could be treated as a divine weapon and kept in his body. The only difference between it and another divine weapon was that it felt more intricately connected to Bei Feng, as though it was part of his body.
Funnily enough, once the wing was retracted, the weight of it completely disappeared. It was like the wing never existed at all.
‘Although I've spent 100,000 experience points on this, it's completely worth it!’
After only a brief mont of experintation, Bei Feng had already co to terms with the loss of his experience points.
When that was done, Bei Feng cald his heart and willed internally. "Confirm advancent!"
As soon as his words landed, a tyrannical absorbing force emanated out of him! This consuming force was aid at all the different kinds of energy between the Heaven and the Earth, not affecting anything else!
Within the radius of a hundred li, the Ling Qi from the Heaven and Earth, the energy from the sun and plants... even the gravitational force from the ground was sucked towards Bei Feng!
The ocean of energy roared through Bei Feng with his body as the dium, turning into fertilizers for the System's advancent!
Atop the small mountain which Bei Feng was on, a gigantic energy millstone 1,000 kiloters in diater appeared in the sky, rotating slowly!
In the center of the energy millstone, a single tornado-like tunnel of energy was connected directly to Bei Feng's body!
Such a magnificent sight was actually completely invisible to others. Just like how mortals could not see the Heaven and Earth Ling Qi around them!
These energies exist, but they could not be detected or studied using any known technological equipnt!
The energy on this naless mountain grew extrely dense in an instant, enough to scare anyone to death! Even those trees whose branches had shed their leaves in winter began to bud with new green leaves!
Countless flowers on the mountain began to grow resplendently, and huge fishes also erged from the depths of the deepest lakes to gulp greedily at the air above the water.
Bei Feng felt even better, being at the center of the energy storm. Huge amounts of energy surged through his body continuously. The originally tyrannical energy turned incomparably docile the instant it entered his body before disappearing without a trace!
In contrast to the vast and boundless energy surging around and within him, Bei Feng's own blood and Qi was like a tiny puddle in an obscure village, not worth a ntion at all!
If the huge amounts of energy were not absorbed by the System, Bei Feng would probably explode in a flashy manner the mont the energy entered his body!
Bei Feng did not try to absorb the energy at all. The fact of the matter was that this mixture of energy was simply too disorderly and tyrannical.
Even so, a small amount of the energy was still deposited in his body as it passed through. Bei Feng's wing also materialized behind him as it sought to absorb so of the Heaven and Earth Ling Qi as well as Wind Elental Energy!
Ti passed bit by bit, and the sparse woods on the mountain had transford into a dense forest with dazzling flowers everywhere!
The bleak appearance of winter was completely absent from this mountain. Fortunately, the entire mountain belonged to Bei Feng. It was also situated at the innermost part of the mountain range, so he did not have to worry about anything.
Bei Feng's body was already completely satiated by now. He allowed the energy to spread through every part of its body. After so ti, it slowly dissipated, returning to the world.
At the sa ti, the wing on his back was still absorbing Heaven and Earth Ling Qi and Wind Elental Energy steadily. As it fluttered gently in the wind, the feathers on his wing brushed against each other lightly, producing sharp tallic sounds. The feathers looked even more beautiful than before, as though they had been wrought from cold steel!
More importantly, as the wing continued to absorb the different kinds of energy, its size was also beginning to change. Right now, the Celestial Snow Ridge Eagle's right wing had already grown larger by around one ter. Fully extended, it was about six ters long!
The White Jade Fishing Rod and the well were both wrapped in a grayish energy cocoon as well, causing them to look extrely surreal.
Three hours later, the gigantic energy millstone in the sky finally began to dissipate as the last wisps of energy flowed into Bei Feng's body.
"Ding! Myriad Heavens Fishing System upgrade complete!"
The System stated emotionlessly, causing Bei Feng to feel a suffocating feeling in his chest as he listened to it.
Bei Feng sunk his perception into his sea of consciousness and brought up the stats window.
Na: Bei Feng (Human Race)
Strength: 2 stars
Speed: 2 stars
ntal: 2 stars
Cultivation Art: Minor Illumination Breathing Technique (Peak!)
Weapons: Extre Arctic Frost; Golden Geng Flying Dagger!
Special State: Mixed Yuan As One! (Temporary rging of Essence, Qi, and Spirit into one, resulting in explosive rise in power for as long as technique is sustained. Note: Body's attributes will drop by half for 10 days after using the technique!)
Grade 2 White Jade Fishing Rod successfully upgraded to Grade 3 Fusang Wood Fishing Rod! (Can be kept in host's body.) [1]
Fishing attempts have been changed to once every 10 days, with improved chances of catching high-grade items! (Fisherman will now be able to see everything within a 50-ter radius of the hook when fishing.)
Fisherman has a single chance to relocate the Myriad Heavens Fishing Gateway! (Binding a new Myriad Heavens Fishing Gateway requires 8 months; it is impossible to Fish until the process is complete!)
Lifelike Bait unlocked. Fisherman can now exchange experience points for Lifelike Baits! (The baits given will be sothing that the target loves. Exchanging for Lifelike Baits in the current world will only cost half the required experience points, while exchanging for Lifelike Baits in the targeted Myriad World will cost full price!)
Fisherman can also spend experience points to understand the spoken language of the targeted Myriad World!
Experience points required to advance to level 4 Fisherman: 981,900!
"Whew, I've finally made it to level 3 Fisherman! Looks like the further I advance, the longer the period between each Fishing attempt will be. Similarly, the rewards will be better! However, each advancent requires ten tis the experience points of the previous level up!"
Bei Feng mumbled lightly. Of course, the thing he viewed as the most important at this mont was the ability to exchange experience points for Lifelike Baits!
The universe was boundlessly vast, to a point where no one knew where its limits lay. Within it, there existed god knows how many different species of living beings!
It wasn't practical to simply continue relying on luck every single ti when he fished, especially with the extended periods of ti between each attempt! From now on, every ti he ca up empty-handed, that would be the equivalent of wasting ten days of precious ti!
As such, the appearance of the Lifelike Baits was like a tily rain! Since the System had said that the Lifelike Baits would be sothing that the target would like, that ant that the chances of success for every Fishing attempt would be greatly increased if he had the bait!
Although he needed to shell out so experience points for it, Bei Feng felt that it was completely reasonable. After all, that was still better than not catching anything!
As for the fishing rod, after the White Jade Fishing Rod had transford into the Fusang Wood Fishing Rod, it had turned even uglier. The entire rod was covered in tiny brown patterns, densely packed together. With just a single look, it was enough to cause others to feel an annoying numbness in their eyes.
[1] TL/N: Fusang refers to several different entities in ancient Chinese literature, often either a mythological tree or a mysterious land to the East. In the Classic of Mountains and Seas and several contemporary texts, the term refers to a mythological tree of life, alternately identified as a mulberry or hibiscus, allegedly growing far to the east of China, and perhaps to various more concrete territories east of the mainland.
