At first, Wang Baole controlled his strength, and didn't absorb too much of it. He only sucked in some of the death aura in the area, which nourished his soul and gave him a sense of comfort.
As for the black strands, Wang Baole's fleshly body was much stronger than before. Furthermore, he was thinking about the donkey and Little Five, who seemed capable of swallowing the black strands. If he really got into a dangerous situation, he would just toss them out.
Considering the abilities of those two fellows, they probably wouldn't die.
The main reason he didn't immediately absorb a large amount of the death aura was because … he couldn't use too much force when fishing. He had to cook it slowly, and keep it going for a long time. That way, he could gradually wear down his opponent's rationality, and cause them to act rashly.
"Let's see what sort of brazen fish would dare to ambush me!" Wang Baole snorted inwardly. As he absorbed the death aura, he slowly increased his strength, causing the area around him to expand, and the amount of death aura he sucked in increased.
As for his Divine Soul, it trembled more and more as the endless Death Qi poured into it. Not only did it feel extremely comfortable, but it also began to grow stronger and stronger. It also began to reflect back to his Cultivation Base, causing it to gradually increase.
To cultivators, cultivation base, soul, and fleshly body were separate, but they were also one. Therefore, the improvement of the soul and fleshly body naturally led to the improvement of the cultivation base.
However, because it wasn't specifically focused on improving the cultivation base, the speed of the improvement was somewhat slow. The advantage, however, was that it could be sustained. As Wang Baole continued to increase his strength, the death aura in the area gradually began to form a vortex of death aura. Not too far away, the black fish was in a dilemma.
It wanted to go over and swallow Wang Baole. Once and for all, everything would be over. However, the bite just now had caused it to tremble with fear, and it didn't dare to get close. But if it didn't get close … it could only watch as Wang Baole continued to consume the death aura, and its heart began to go crazy.
The death aura was a part of its body, and as far as the fish was concerned, Wang Baole wasn't consuming death aura, but rather, eating its own flesh and blood.
As a result, its conflict was naturally very strong. It was as if two consciousnesses had appeared in its mind. One was telling it to rush over, while the other was telling it to endure.
"I can't go! That guy will only absorb my aura for a while before stopping. I'll endure it!!" In the end, in this black fish's mind, the will to endure prevailed, and it suppressed its impulse.
Therefore, Wang Baole and the fish were locked in a stalemate within the gray starry sky. Wang Baole waited for a long moment, but the fish still hadn't appeared. Furthermore, quite a few of the black strands were converging on him, and some of them were even charging toward him at top speed.
"Dad, what should we do? Why don't you suck in more at once? Otherwise, the fish won't come!"
"Son!!" Little Five and the little donkey were getting anxious as well. The little donkey, in particular, was drooling uncontrollably.
"Idiot, you can't be impatient when fishing!" Wang Baole snorted coldly in his heart. Ignoring Little Five and the little donkey, he shot off into the distance, avoiding the black strands as he did so. At the same time, he increased the amount of death aura he was absorbing.
Instantly, more of the death aura in the area was being sucked in. Wang Baole increased his speed as he sped off into the distance, causing the black strands to chase after him.
"You two," he said inwardly, "have you sensed that fish coming after us?"
"Dad, that fish is still here! I can sense that it's right around us!" Little Five said, and the little donkey nodded furiously. Wang Baole immediately calmed down, and mused inwardly that this stinking fish was being very cautious.
"I'm not afraid of being cautious. I'm just afraid that it'll get away!" Wang Baole smiled faintly as he sped along, continuing to absorb more death aura. Furthermore, the area in which he absorbed the death aura grew larger and faster, causing the black fish to grow more and more enraged.
"It's not done yet!?!?!?"
"Dammit, it really isn't over!!" The black fish's eyes were bloodshot. The two consciousnesses in its mind were once again awakening, and were madly suppressing each other, causing its body to tremble. It really couldn't hold back any longer. This detestable little thief in front of it wasn't giving up after absorbing the death aura, as he had done in the past. Instead, he was continuing ….
By this point, he had absorbed quite a bit of death aura, and from the looks of it, he wasn't done yet. That drove the black fish mad, and it wanted to go look for Chen Qing. However, Chen Qing had ignored it on numerous occasions. Therefore, the black fish's eyes shone with a vicious light.
"If you keep eating, I'll eat you!!" Even as it howled inwardly, Wang Baole continued to absorb the death aura with the tens of thousands of black strands behind him.
However … he was sweating profusely, and his heart was pounding. Even the donkey and Little Five were trembling in fear. There were simply too many black strands chasing after him, and yet, the fish still hadn't appeared. Little Five and the donkey were starting to doubt their own judgment.
Wang Baole was cursing inwardly, and yet, he wasn't willing to give up just like that. Besides … although there were more and more black strands behind him, as he absorbed more death aura, his soul was growing stronger as well.
You could say that as of this moment, he was torn between pain and joy.
"Still not coming? Still not coming?!?! "
Wang Baole was so anxious that his eyes shone with madness. Most likely, the black fish had reached its limit, and didn't dare to appear. Perhaps it was waiting for an opportunity.
However, if things kept going like this, Meng Hao wouldn't be able to hold out for much longer. Therefore … he had to create an opportunity for the fish.
Having reached this point in his train of thought, Wang Baole's heart steeled. He roared and performed a double-handed incantation gesture. Underworld Flame burned inside of him, creating a powerful gravitational force that began to suck in the death aura in the area!
This time, he unleashed all of the Underworld Flame inside of him, as well as all of the power of his cultivation base. He went all out to consume the death aura. Rumbling sounds could be heard as the death aura in the area began to surge violently toward him.
From a distance, it looked like the amount of death aura Wang Baole was consuming was equivalent to all of the death aura he had consumed before. The black fish was even more agitated and frenzied. It let out a roar, as if it were about to lose control of itself, and its impulsiveness was about to overwhelm its reason.
Then, as if the temptation wasn't enough, Wang Baole continued to absorb the death aura. The black strands reached seventy or eighty thousand in the blink of an eye. It was as if he were playing with fire. Little Five and the donkey's hearts were pounding. Suddenly, his body trembled violently, and he let out a miserable shriek and coughed up a mouthful of blood.
It was almost like … someone had choked while eating.
In that moment, his speed was affected. In the blink of an eye, the black strands were closing in on him. Wang Baole's face fell, and he prepared to flee at top speed ….
However, it was at this point that the black fish's eyes shone with a vicious light. It flickered, then vanished. When it reappeared, it was directly behind Wang Baole, and was just about to open its mouth wide!
However, even as it was about to open its mouth, Little Five and the donkey in Wang Baole's mind let out excited cries.
"Daddy's behind you!"
"Son! Son!! "
As those words echoed in Wang Baole's mind, in that instant … in the dark fish's eyes, it saw the silhouette of a donkey, a sneaky young man, and … the thief who seemed to have choked on his words.
All three of them had eyes shining with excitement as they opened their mouths and bit down toward the black fish!
The donkey, who had tasted the sweetness of victory, opened its mouth wide as if it were using all the power it could muster. Its mouth was now shaped like a black hole. As for Little Five, it was even more exaggerated. His body was gone, and only his mouth remained. Saliva dripped down his mouth as he swallowed the black fish.
Most exaggerated of all … was the thief. It was as if he could transform. In the blink of an eye, more than ten thousand figures appeared, all of them with their mouths wide open as they lunged toward the black fish. The black fish even saw a zombie, a weapon, an enraged figure, and a white deer with its mouth wide open.
The sight of this caused Hei Yu's jaw to drop. He stood there in a daze, as if he were so frightened that he began to tremble.
The truth was … these people were even more vicious than the black fish!
