Chapter 279 Archer Fishing
Everyone's attention was instantly drawn to it. Upon closer inspection, they could hardly believe their eyes—it was a knife fish!
The fish was enormous, measuring a full 5 meters in length, yet its body was remarkably narrow, resembling a long, bright silver knife. Under the sunlight, its body shimmered with a cold, icy light.
The fish skin is as smooth and shiny as a finely polished mirror, just like the finest silk shimmering with a beautiful halo in the sunlight.
When the huge fish landed on the boat with a "plop," it did not give in and continued to struggle violently.
The fish's tail, like a powerful whip, repeatedly pounded across the entire deck, making a series of loud thuds. Each impact seemed to demonstrate its indomitable spirit, and the powerful force gave the impression that the fish's flesh was very firm, as if it contained endless power.
Wu Heyi reacted extremely quickly, decisively drawing a dagger.
The dagger gleamed coldly as it was held high in his strong grip, then pierced directly through the fish's eye.
At this moment, the fish was as if it had been nailed to the Book of Life and Death, pinned to the deck and unable to escape.
Although the fish's tail was still making a final struggle, like a candle flickering in the wind, it only struggled for about ten seconds before slowly losing its responsiveness.
Suddenly, a thousand-year-old soul ring, purplish-black in color, floated out from the fish's body.
This spirit ring exudes a mysterious and powerful aura, with ripples of purplish-black light spreading through the air.
There were quite a few people present, some of whom had reached the point where they needed spirit rings to enhance their strength. When they saw this spirit ring, a hint of longing flashed in their eyes.
However, since the spirit beast was killed by Wu Heyi, according to the rules of the spirit beast world, none of them can directly absorb this spirit ring. However, it is still possible to share this spirit ring, since the spirit ring contains rich spirit power, and even if it is shared, everyone can get a share.
Wu Heyi didn't care about this little bit of soul power at all; he casually gestured to the person next to him.
The guards, like hungry wolves spotting their prey, immediately swarmed forward.
They moved swiftly, breaking the spirit ring into more than a dozen pieces, and then devoured it as if enjoying a feast, leaving not a single crumb.
After seeing Wu Heyi's fishing method, Mengxuanjun and Adai were eager to try it, their eyes sparkling with excitement.
Although it looked like Wu Heyi was struggling to catch fish, and every movement was like fighting against a huge enemy, the feeling of giving it his all made the two of them feel very excited and their hearts were burning with passion.
Before Wu Heyi could even give them instructions, they had already started DIYing on their own.
When Wu Heyi carefully and skillfully finished dissecting the knife fish, he looked up and saw the two men standing on the edge of the boat, their bodies slightly leaning back, their veins bulging, like small green snakes crawling under their skin.
They gritted their teeth and struggled fiercely with the fish they had caught, as if they were using all their strength.
However, these two were extremely lacking in martial ethics. At first, they only relied on their physical strength to play for a while, but when they felt tired, they immediately used the power of their spirit rings.
With the enhancement of their spirit rings, their strength increased dramatically, and they managed to fling the two knife fish up with a single effort.
The two fish were enormous, neither smaller than the one Wu Heyi had just caught. Their massive bodies bounced a few times on the deck before settling down.
Seeing that Wu Heyi was already grilling fish in an orderly manner, the two quickly and skillfully killed the fish and then tried to grill it in the same way as Wu Heyi.
The fish meat gradually turned golden brown under the licking of the flames, emitting an enticing aroma.
"Hey, you idiot, that fish you just caught was 2 years old. You can absorb its spirit ring now!"
Wu Heyi, seeing Ah Dai's eyes glued to the grilled fish, kindly offered a reminder.
He felt that such a powerful spirit ring would definitely be of great help in improving Ah Dai's strength.
"No, although this fish looks delicious, I don't want its spirit ring!"
Although Ah-Dai replied to Wu He-Yi, he didn't even turn his head. His eyes were full of stars as he stared at the fish he was grilling, as if in his eyes, this grilled fish was more tempting than any powerful spirit ring.
Wu Heyi felt utterly speechless. He shook his head helplessly, thinking to himself: "Chatting with a foodie is just this boring."
He then turned to look at Archer, who was standing beside him and never smiled.
Archer stood like a loyal statue, guarding Wu Heyi's side.
"Why don't you go catch a couple? These knife fish are a perfect match for your martial spirit!"
Wu Heyi extended a warm invitation, believing it to be a good opportunity for Archer to improve his skills.
Archer glanced at the grilled fish, the aroma of which seemed to have a magical power, causing a little bit of saliva to involuntarily trickle from the corner of his mouth, but he quickly came to his senses.
His code of conduct told him not to let his guard down, so he merely blinked quickly and sucked the saliva that was about to spill back into his mouth.
“My duty is to protect His Majesty’s safety!” Archer said with a serious expression and a firm tone. He stood straight, like a tall pine tree.
"Then will you listen to the orders I give you?" Wu Heyi asked, looking both angry and serious.
Beneath his serious exterior lies a mischievous streak that feigns authority.
When Archer saw Wu Heyi suddenly become serious, his body immediately straightened up even more, like a taut bowstring, and he quickly said.
"I will obey Your Majesty's orders!"
"Alright, I command you now to use all your strength to catch a ten-thousand-year-old knife fish!"
As Wu Heyi spoke, he handed over his fishing rod, a hint of anticipation in his eyes.
Although Archer hesitated for a second, as if he were having a small internal struggle, he still took the fishing rod and imitated their actions, wrapping the hook with bait.
The bait completely covered the fishhook, like putting a thick cotton coat on it.
Then he looked up at the sea, which had calmed down a bit. The sea was shimmering, like a huge blue ribbon gently trembling in the breeze.
He looked at Wu Heyi again, opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something but hesitated, his eyes showing some hesitation.
"You want to set up a nest, huh!"
Wu Heyi asked with a smile. He seemed to see through Archer's thoughts at a glance, his smile carrying a hint of gentleness and all-knowing wisdom.
Archer nodded shyly, his face slightly flushed, like the faint sunset on the horizon.
Wu Heyi casually took half a basin of bait for him to use for groundbaiting.
The bait had a distinctive fishy smell, which was the best flavor to attract fish.
After receiving it, Archer immediately activated the dimensional effect of his martial soul.
He moved the bait he had prepared to a higher position, scattering it more evenly over the sea.
The bait was scattered across the sea like flowers falling from the sky, creating a unique scene.
At the same time, he also cast his fishing hook out, which drew a beautiful arc in the air before falling into the vast sea.
