The scene appeared exceedingly perilous.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Lin squatted on the deck, her eyes faintly glowing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Senior Sister, northwest direction, four waves out—there’s a school of Four-Seasons Fish.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing this, Senior Sister Lin hurriedly steered the vessel toward the northwest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Another female disciple, Zhao Jing, swiftly loosened the Cold-Silk Net coiled around the mast.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Cast the net!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Li Lin’s words fell, Zhao Jing immediately activated her technique. The entire Cold-Silk Net, like the radiance of a bright moon, sank into the sea, then gradually vanished from sight.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Splashhh!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A quarter-hour later, the surging sea suddenly boiled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looking closely, the boiling waves were stirred up by countless Four-Seasons Fish struggling within the Cold-Silk Net.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the moment Zhao Jing exerted her spiritual power to haul up the net, Senior Sister Lin’s hand seals shifted, casting a Frosting Art. Wisps of misty frost instantly spread along the net, freezing the trapped fish within.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Rise!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing this, Li Lin ceased using her Spirit-Gazing Eyes. Instead, she infused spiritual power into her hands, gripping the fishing net, and together with her senior sister dragged the ten-zhang-long Cold-Silk Net onto the vessel.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Four-Seasons Fish was unique to the Black-Veil Sea Region. Its flesh was tough, its stench overwhelming, without any nourishing effect—unworthy even of being called a First-Tier Exotic Fish. Even gourmands fond of sea fish would shake their heads at the sight of it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But the Four-Seasons Fish was not entirely useless. The Second-Tier Spirit Fish, the Black-Veil Fish, had an unusual taste and favored the former as food.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was why Li Lin and the others risked venturing into the sea to capture Four-Seasons Fish schools—only to lure Black-Veil Fish.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For within the sect, the price of Black-Veil Fish remained sky-high. A single one could sell for tens of thousands of low-grade Spirit Stones.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If exchanged through the Mission Hall, a single Black-Veil Fish could be worth four thousand contribution points.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Senior Sister, did we get any?” Zhao Jing looked at Senior Sister Lin.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“No, not a single Black-Veil Fish.” The latter frowned, staring at the net with a look of disbelief.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To track Four-Seasons Fish schools, she had led her two junior sisters roaming the Black-Veil Sea Region for over two months.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet after finally finding a school this large, to not catch even one Black-Veil Fish—this was nothing short of a blood loss.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Senior Sister, could it be a Black-Veil Fish King?” Li Lin asked in suspicion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Black-Veil Fish King was a mutated Third-Tier Treasure Fish, highly intelligent, able to lead its school in concealment, evading capture by human cultivators. It was extremely troublesome.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Treasure Fish of the Fish King level usually only appear in the core seas. It’s unlikely to be in the inner sea.” Senior Sister Lin explained patiently.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Catching Black-Veil Fish was indeed a fast path to contribution points, but the threshold was extremely high.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without a Second-Tier high-grade sea vessel sturdy enough to withstand the inner sea’s tides, and without a Foundation Establishment cultivator skilled in Spirit-Gazing Arts to track Four-Seasons Fish and not lose direction, it was impossible to even glimpse a Black-Veil Fish.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even if all conditions were met, with poor luck and no fishing experience, cultivators could sail the inner sea for three or four years without catching a single one.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thus, though Senior Sister Lin felt the last two months had been wasted, she did not dwell on it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only junior sisters who had joined the sect for a few years still imagined treasures of heaven and earth were as common as weeds by the roadside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What a joke.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Third-Tier Treasure Fish were incomparably rare. She had fished in the inner seas of the Black-Veil Region for fifty years and had never once laid eyes on a Black-Veil Fish King.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If one truly appeared, even Golden Core True Persons in the sect would not remain idle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For the effect of a Black-Veil Fish King was simple and brutal—after being consumed by a Golden Core cultivator, it could temporarily heighten comprehension, greatly increasing the chance of breaking through bottlenecks.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Junior Sister Li, trouble you to search for the Four-Seasons Fish again.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nodding at these words, Li Lin did not argue. She activated her Fate-Gazing Spirit Eyes, sweeping the surroundings.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Boom!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sensing a terrifying beastly aura hidden beneath the sea, Li Lin’s pupils contracted. She could not suppress the panic rising on her face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Senior Sister, flee quickly!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Senior Sister Lin’s expression shifted. Yet before she could react, a jet-black bone spike shot forth from the waves.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Bang!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the Second-Tier sea vessel’s defensive barrier emerged to block the incoming strike, a visible white shockwave exploded, surging waves to the sky.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the same time, Zhao Jing groaned, staring in terror at the shattered jade talisman at her waist and the pulverized bone spike before her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Had she not been cautious by nature, always carrying protective artifacts, she would have perished under that blow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Attack! It’s trying to destroy the ship!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In this life-and-death moment, Senior Sister Lin could not spare the cost. She crushed a Second-Tier Azure-Light Talisman. A halo of azure light enveloped the vessel.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Roar!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a terrifying roar, a colossal beast over four zhang long emerged, crowned with a thorned crown of bone atop its head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Its body was clad in black crescent-shaped scales, radiating tangible pressure.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“We’re finished!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing its form, the three disciples’ faces turned deathly pale.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For the sea beast that attacked them was not an ordinary Foundation Establishment beast, but the Thorn-Bone King Fish, infamous in the core seas, with strength at Late-Stage Foundation Establishment—far beyond what three early-stage cultivators could resist.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Creak! Creak!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing the ship groan under unbearable strain, Senior Sister Lin’s eyes flashed ruthlessly. She suddenly kicked hard.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Standing to her right, Junior Sister Zhao Jing, who had been controlling her artifact, was struck with immense force. Her body shot out like a cannonball, hurled toward the Thorn-Bone King Fish.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Why?” Li Lin’s eyes widened in disbelief.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At such a critical juncture, they should have been fighting together against the ferocious beast.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Why had the senior sister she so revered turned on her own?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Thorn-Bone King Fish lifted its head, the crown of bone easily impaling Zhao Jing’s body.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Taking the opportunity, Senior Sister Lin urged the vessel into the sky, fleeing in the opposite direction at full speed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“There is no why! Survival is all that matters!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fearing Li Lin might falter in the moment of crisis, Senior Sister Lin shouted loudly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Thorn-Bone King Fish’s cold gaze fixed on the vessel. It opened its maw and spat a black beam.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Evidently, the flesh of one Foundation Establishment cultivator was far from satisfying its hunger.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the black beam spread, towering black waves collapsed downward, slapping toward the vessel as though swatting a fly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Damn it! Explode for me!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Senior Sister Lin’s eyes turned blood-red. She triggered the restriction hidden within Zhao Jing’s body. A terrifying cold burst forth, enough to freeze all things.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Roar!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A furious bellow shook the seas, and the towering black waves collapsed instantly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even the Thorn-Bone King Fish could not withstand the self-destruction of a Foundation Establishment cultivator shattering her Dao Foundation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But it only roused the beast’s ferocity. Its figure turned into black light, chasing after the fleeing vessel, quickly closing the distance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Gulu?” (“Should we make a move?”)\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Golden Egg looked at Chen Beiwu.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>‘Wait a little longer. This Thorn-Bone King Fish is no easy foe.’ Chen Beiwu’s eyes narrowed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had not expected to encounter such a scene while traveling.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At first, seeing fellow sect members in danger, Chen Beiwu had considered secretly loosing an arrow to help them escape, then slipping away via the Gate of Ten Directions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But the scene of fellow disciples turning on each other upon the vessel made him change his mind.\u003C\u002Fp>",1355,"2026-06-03T12:06:33.101Z",1,"novelbin.me","103f891a226ce3871bcda183d19263c7f677ddd1ddcd87fa50ee48772a9d904b","beast-taming-cultivator-from-two-realms-chapter-194","beast-taming-cultivator-from-two-realms-chapter-192",316,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fbeast-taming-cultivator-from-two-realms-cover.jpg"]
