Chapter 459: Incoming Attack

When Wang Yu thought of the experimental plans arranged for him by the Blue Star base, a strange expression couldn't help but appear on his face.

However, the most urgent thing for him right now is naturally to heal the injuries on his body first.

He had already checked his body inside and out. Whether it was the charring on his body surface or the damage to his meridians, it was caused by the intrusion of third-rank lightning power. Although it was only a tiny bit of lightning power, it was not something that ordinary healing methods could cure.

Even if he continued to apply Spirit Ghee and use the Green Wood Hand for massage, he estimated that it could only play a role in relief and could not be truly eradicated.

Fortunately, he is a second-rank alchemist and carries several types of second-rank healing pills, which he secretly refined using exchanged second-rank medicinal materials when he was at the Four Symbols Gate. They should be able to recover most of his injuries.

As for wanting to be completely cured, he needs pills specifically targeting lightning power; otherwise, he can only rely on his own magic power to refine it bit by bit.

And the pill formulas he collected before were mostly first-rank, and second-rank pill formulas were also mainly for increasing cultivation. He really didn't have any second-rank pill formulas targeting lightning power.

It seems he can only find relevant pill formulas and materials in the Chaotic Spirit Domain; otherwise, if he really relies on his own magic power to refine it slowly, he fears it will be impossible to do so without five or six years, and during this period, because of the meridian problem, it will also greatly affect normal cultivation.

Thinking of this, Wang Yu made a decision in his heart. He took out three small bottles of different colors from his storage bag, poured out a healing pill from each, swallowed them all at once, and then closed his eyes, pinched a spell with both hands, and began to refine the medicinal power.

……

Half a month later.

On the big river beside the small town of Spirit Creek Bay, more than a dozen male and female cultivators from Spirit Creek Bay were floating in mid-air, monitoring the more than one hundred mortal boats below with excitement.

The men dressed as woodcutters and fishermen were among them.

The mortal boats formed two 'boat dams', desperately taking turns pulling a long fishing net, occasionally pouring out river fish of various sizes and colors from the net.

"We've made a fortune this time. I didn't expect the spirit fish season to break out early. This wave doesn't need to be much; as long as we can catch more spirit fish fry, our cultivation resources for the next few years will all be there." The woodcutter-dressed man rubbed his hands repeatedly in the air, looking very excited.

"Isn't that so? This water area of Spirit Creek Bay is considered the best river channel for catching spirit fish fry nearby. Those adult spirit fish are one thing; we definitely can't catch them, as they are all intercepted by those large forces upstream. But for small spirit fish fry, every time the season comes, as long as we organize mortals to fish, we can have a rich harvest." A middle-aged woman, big and tall, looked at the harvest of the fishermen below, her face blooming with a smile.

Other Qi Refinement cultivators were also mostly full of joy.

"Don't just think about good things. Everyone, watch the river surface carefully for me. Don't let any adult spirit fish slip through the net and overturn the small boats below, causing gaps in the net array.

You must know that spirit fish fry don't have high intelligence, but their survival instinct is not small. Once a loophole appears, they will definitely take advantage of the situation to escape, and the loss will be great." The man dressed as a fisherman warned the others loudly.

"Old Tian is right. Everyone, be careful." The woodcutter's smile faded, and he agreed immediately.

"Adult spirit fish are indeed not something mortals can deal with. Once an adult spirit fish is discovered, take action immediately to kill them."

"Right, right, if an adult spirit fish is discovered, everyone take action together."

Other cultivators also echoed one after another.

"Hey, where is Fairy Shi? She is a mid-stage cultivator. If she were also present, we could be more relaxed." The big and tall woman looked left and right and asked with some surprise.

"Fellow Daoist Shi should still be at her residence. She seems to have stayed there for the past few days." Someone replied without thinking.

"Not just Fellow Daoist Shi, Fellow Daoist Hongyao also seems to have stopped seeing patients these past few days and also stayed at the residence."

"Lord Green Lin also seems to have returned to the residence from the Spirit Creek side."

Others were also discussing in a hubbub.

"Could it be that Lady Bai Li's master, that Senior's injuries have become more serious, which is why the Shi sisters have stayed at the residence for so long?" The middle-aged woman asked with a sudden shock.

Other Qi Refinement cultivators also changed their expressions upon hearing this.

Although this small spirit domain of Spirit Creek Valley is led by Shi Qiuping on the surface, everyone knows that if it weren't for that possible Foundation Establishment cultivator rescued three years ago, and the two terrifying spirit beasts, Bai Li and Green Lin, they would have been driven away by other rogue cultivators long ago.

If that person really had an accident, those two spirit beasts might not stay here and would very likely run directly into the deep mountains and old forests, becoming ownerless demon beasts again.

They, these low-rank cultivators who are only at the early to mid-stage of Qi Refinement, would definitely not be able to hold onto Spirit Creek Bay.

Just when everyone had different expressions and was mostly uneasy, a huge wave suddenly rolled up in the river below, and a silver fish head with a head as big as a water vat vaguely appeared inside.

"Take action quickly, it's a first-rank adult Yuanbao fish." The cultivator dressed as a fisherman saw this scene, shouted immediately, and then his figure shot downward. He raised his hand, and a silver silk net covered the direction of the wave directly.

Seeing this, other cultivators also took action one after another, either throwing out magic tools or pinching spells in their hands, chanting words, and various magic tools and spells smashed toward the same position on the river surface in a swarm.

In the blink of an eye, amidst the roaring sound, a pool of blood emerged from the river surface.

Then, the body of a giant silver fish about half a zhang long floated up from under the water with its white belly turned up.

Everyone was overjoyed and was just about to go down to divide this adult spirit fish when suddenly, the woodcutter-dressed man shouted to the upstream direction of the river channel:

"Not good, the people from Seven Star Pool are here."

Others were shocked and hurriedly looked in the same direction.

I saw that in the high sky upstream of the river, one large and two small, three light green spirit rafts were speeding toward this side silently, without any sound at all.

If the woodcutter hadn't looked in this direction unintentionally, I fear that the cultivators of Spirit Creek Bay wouldn't have discovered them until the three spirit rafts flew close.

The three spirit rafts were densely packed with people, looking like there were more than forty people.

"Quickly send a signal to Fellow Daoist Shi, the people from Seven Star Pool have all been dispatched." Someone shouted in a panic.

The middle-aged woman hurriedly took out a talisman from her bosom and threw it into the air.

With a 'whoosh' sound.

A black light shot into the sky from the talisman, followed by a harsh, piercing sound that could be heard clearly within a radius of more than ten li.

The cultivators of Spirit Creek Bay also couldn't care about the mortal boats on the river surface. They took back all their magic tools, looking like they were waiting in full battle array above the river.

But if one observed carefully, one could see that the expressions on most people's faces were full of panic and unease, and only a few people like the woodcutter and fisherman had expressions of determination to fight to the death.

"Listen to me, Brother Lu has already broken through to the late stage of Qi Refinement and reached the perfection level. Now, just relying on those two beasts is no longer enough to protect you."

"If you are willing to hand over Spirit Creek Bay now, you can still save your lives and leave safely; otherwise, there will be no amnesty."

In the blink of an eye, the three spirit rafts arrived not far away. A tall cultivator wearing a yellow robe flew out from the largest spirit raft, his face full of scars, and he threatened the group of Spirit Creek Bay cultivators opposite him viciously. ===== CHAPTER 460 =====
