Fishing the Myriad Heavens-Chapter 62: Imparting Skills!

Translator: AstralGhost Editor: Kurisu

Bei Feng did not reply them immediately. Instead, he simply demonstrated the entire breathing technique one time over for them to see.

Just as Mystic Two and Three were beginning to get impatient, an extraordinarily shocking scene appeared!

A ray from the sun, the thickness of a finger, came flying down from the sky, shooting into Bei Feng’s nose!

"Holy f*ck! What the hell?! That’s awesome, big brother!"

Mystics Two and Three were the very picture of astonishment, while Mystic One remained seated atop a rock, her legs swinging back and forth as she looked at Bei Feng with interest.

"Boss is a deity?"

Mystics Two and Three were shocked silly. Wasn't this the kind of things that only deities can do?!

Plucking the essence of the sun and the moon to strengthen one’s own body... this kind of stuff that was only seen in novels and tv dramas had completely smashed the way they viewed the world!

The gazes of the two were heated and fervent. Could it be that the reward mentioned by Bei Feng was exactly this godly technique?!

"Crackle..."

A series of popping and crackling sounds emanated from Bei Feng’s body.

In that moment, his body seemed to have ballooned to double its size. Streams of chaotic air flow dashed about brazenly under his skin without a care in the world.

Extreme Arctic Frost was also roused, as though it had been provoked!

A powerful stream of icy-blue Frost Qi which appeared to be further imbued with countless strands of deep azure gushed forth!

The tyrannical Yang Qi was beaten back repeatedly and, in a short time, the Frost Qi which had originated from Extreme Arctic Frost had seized the dominant position!

The two opposing energies clashed repeatedly, wreaking havoc everywhere around them!

The energy from the Blood God Fruit flowed within Bei Feng’s body, repairing it with ungodly speed. Any part of his body which had been destroyed and reconstructed was made even stronger than before!

The Frost Qi from Extreme Arctic Frost surged forth relentlessly, finally managing to beat the Yang Qi from the sun into a corner!

Like a being with intellect, seeing that its enemy had been cornered, the Frost Qi poured forward with reckless abandon, completely pulverizing the sunray’s Yang Qi!

With its target destroyed, the remaining Frost Qi swam about Bei Feng’s body for a moment before returning into Extreme Arctic Frost.

"Huu!"

Bei Feng expelled a breath full of turbid air from his mouth. A new layer of greyish black sweat covered the surface of his skin, emanating a foul smell.

"See that? That’s my reward for all of you."

Bei Feng turned around and looked at his shellshocked audience with a calm smile as he commented in a bland voice.

This decision had been made after some careful consideration. Why did he only give the breathing technique to Mystic One to Three? That was because improvement would occur only if there was competition!

Only if the others saw the positive changes within the top three "Mystics" would they be motivated to perform their individual tasks well!

Wielding both rewards and punishments effectively was the best way to manage subordinates!

"This is a powerful, mystical breathing technique. If you learn it well, you can seize the Heaven’s luck and comprehend the profoundness of the Sun and the Moon!"

Bei Feng’s voice sounded out lightly. Basked in the golden glow of the morning sun, he looked like an angel descended on the mortal world!

For the rest of the day until the afternoon, Bei Feng carefully explained all the main points of Minor Illumination Breathing Technique to the three Mystics, as well as pointing out the important aspects to pay attention to.

As much as he tried to explain the technique as clearly as possible, the three only understood the method to employ the breathing technique, and were lost in regards to the reasoning behind each movement. Ultimately, this method of imparting the technique could not be compared to the way Bei Feng had learnt it through the transmission method of the manual. An entire afternoon passed, but the three still only had a hazy understanding of the breathing technique.

"I’ve already imparted the breathing technique to the three of you. The rest is up to you. Be sure to practice diligently whenever you can, so as to familiarize yourself with the technique. Remember, the movement sets and the breathing technique must be practiced separately. The only time you can combine both and practice them together is in the early morning, right before the sun rises. If there’s anything you don’t understand, you can come and ask me."

Bei Feng reminded them sternly. He didn’t wish to lose capable subordinates because they cultivated incorrectly.

"Understood!"

Their expressions were still filled with excitement even as they nodded seriously.

Seeing the enthusiastic look in their eyes, Bei Feng shook his head and refrained from speaking any further so as to avoid dampening their spirits.

He estimated that, without a month or so of practice, those people would not even be able to step past the door of cultivation. Bei Feng had a very good understanding of the difficulty of Minor Illumination Breathing Technique. Even with the information directly transmitted into his mind, he would most likely still be stuck at minor completion if he hadn’t obtained a few lucky advantages for himself.

After returning to the old mansion, the first thing Bei Feng did was to wash the grimy sweat off his body.

Then, he went to the kitchen and cut off a sizable chunk of meat from the tail end of the Imperial Shrimp and put it on the steamer.

After some thought, he retrieved the lobster roe, put it into the steamer alongside the meat, and closed the lid.

An hour later, an intoxicating aroma burst forth from the kitchen as Bei Feng removed the lid, allowing the steamy fragrance to permeate the entire mansion.

Bei Feng carried the dish out while loudly calling out for everybody to gather at the table.

Undoubtedly, this was the favorite time of the day for everyone as they rushed to the table like a pack of starved hounds. Bei Feng removed the lid off another dish, revealing a small bowl full of golden-yellow lobster roe, glistening with grease. A peerless fragrance accompanied it, the dish being the very embodiment of perfection.

"Gulp."

Bai Xiang and the other three swallowed a mouthful of saliva simultaneously.

Of course, Bei Feng completely ignored the longing gazes of the four. It was already very good that this bunch of freeloaders were getting to eat well everyday. The good stuff would naturally be kept for the boss!

There were many differing views about whether lobster roe should be consumed at all. Some people were of the opinion that if one doesn’t eat the lobster roe, they might as well not waste their time eating lobster at all. There were also some that said that the roe was the dirtiest part of a lobster, and should not be eaten.

The reasoning behind this theory was that lobsters generally inhabited murky waters, which would result in massive amounts of heavy metal toxins being left in their roe. Eating it would be very harmful to the human body. [1]

But Bei Feng was not about to discard such a treasure just because of weird theories like this. What a joke. Could it be that a demonic beast would also swallow heavy metal toxins? Bei Feng was disinclined to believe this. Besides, this Imperial Shrimp came from the pristine deep seas of a different world!

Bei Feng prodded the roe lightly with his fork, gently scooped a small portion onto the fork and delivered it into his mouth.

"Tender and smooth, greasy and pasty! Mm! It still tastes so fresh and delicate!"

Bei Feng closed his eyes and mumbled in enjoyment, dipping his fork into the roe to scoop another portion. 𝙛𝐫e𝚎wℯ𝗯𝒏𝗼ѵ𝙚l.𝒄o𝚖

Although it was extremely delicious, delicacies like lobster roe had to be enjoyed slowly to be appreciated in full. It was not something that should be stuffed down one’s throat. Only by eating it alone, without having to worry about sharing, could one truly take their time to savor the taste.

This was the part that was the most enjoyable for Bei Feng. He had all the lobster roe to himself, and could take as much time relishing the dish as he liked.

A comfortable warmth surrounded him spreading out from his stomach as Bei Feng’s superhuman digestive system began working on the highly nutritious lobster roe. All the meat and roe which entered his stomach was broken down very quickly and turned into large amounts of nourishing energy, which was easily absorbed by his body!

Twenty minutes passed in the blink of an eye, and Bei Feng, immersed in the blissful taste, pushed his fork into the lobster roe bowl again only to find that it was completely empty.

***

After lunch, Bei Feng returned to his practice of Minor Illumination Breathing Technique’s movement sets under the Banyan tree. As for the three Mystics, they resumed their role as Bai Xiang’s punching bags under the guise of ‘practice’.

Bei Feng wiped his sweat-soaked brow. An hour had passed, but his attempt to modify the movement sets and mold them into a martial technique had failed once again.

He looked at his stats.

"Not bad, my strength had increased by 3 points, and my speed by 1 point just by eating some lobster roe."

Bei Feng grinned in delight. This lobster roe was pretty not bad! It was well worth all his hard work.

Grabbing a small spider and attaching it to the hook, Bei Feng calmly walked over to the ancient well. He was preparing to allow this spider to be the first of its earthling kind to descend into another world!

A pot of tea sat beside him, gently spouting thin strands of steam. Bei Feng sipped a mouthful of the bitter tea. This tea was brewed with the wild tea leaves which originated from the mountain. As the bitterness faded away, a strand of sweet aftertaste remained on his tongue. Bei Feng’s spirit was thoroughly refreshed with just that mouthful of wild mountain tea.

Within the subterranean darkness of a strange world, a long river flowed. Here, deep under the surface of the world, it was impossible to tell the difference between day and night. Not even a shred of light could be found, and the black darkness ruled.

This wide river, although so many meters deep underground, was not peaceful at all. Gigantic ripples would spread across the water surface occasionally and, if one could see in this darkness, it would be possible to observe various scaled and clawed figures revealing themselves from time to time.
