I Can Turn into a Fish

Chapter 236: Fierce Sea Louse

The climate around South Ji Island was warm. There were no cold winters or extreme summers, and even at night, a cool breeze blew, and gave people a warm feeling. *

Before the sun rose, Chu Xian left the hotel. Only the sound of waves filled the South Ji Island night, and everything was quiet.

“It feels a little deserted.” Chu Xian looked around, and walked to the coast.

The moon shone dimly, and the vast sea stretched outwards like an endless abyss, but Chu Xian was in a very good mood regardless.

He quickly stripped and walked into the sea.

The water was even clearer here than in Hai Qing City. Chu Xian dove into the water and swam out to sea, and a giant creature swam out into the sea.

A fierce face and terrifying body, a demonlike creature entered the quiet sea.

“So many fish.” As soon as Chu Xian swam into the water, he used his god’s eye vision and his sonar detection, and a myriad mass of fish appeared in his vision, and surprise appeared on his face.

“It really doesn’t fall short of the reputation of a protected son. There are over ten times as many fish here than in the area around Hai Qing City.”

Chu Xian’s face showed his excitement as he swam out into the distance.

“A school of fish. I’ve actually found a school of fish so easily.”

All of a sudden, clusters of fish appeared in his vision, astonishing Chu Xian and exciting him.

He’d only ever encountered a school of fish twice before, but this time, without even swimming very far into the sea, he had already encountered a small school of fish. The abundance of resources here was terrifying.

Chu Xian sped forward. The school was one of salmon, and although salmon were low value fish, Chu Xian was not concerned with the price.

He rushed forward, and the four to five thousand salmon panicked, and swam in every direction without a thought.

“You still want to escape?” Chu Xian’s face grew excited,* and he used his control ability. With the energy he had, it was extremely easy to control these fish.

Whole clusters of fish surrounded him, and Chu Xian gaped his mouth wide and devoured them.

Since this area did not have any large fishing ships, the salmon here were very large, and every one was around four to five catties, and some were even upwards of seven or eight catties.

“Four to five thousand salmon should be able to increase my absolute rule by two or three slots. This place really is a land of treasure.” Chu Xian’s face showed his excitement, and he started devouring crazily.

“Amazing.” After two whole hours, Chu Xian’s body had grown about five meters in length. This insane growth was something he had not experience in a long time.

“Let’s keep hunting. Even if I can’t find any precious fish, I’ve already gotten a lot.”

Chu Xian’s face showed his excitement. The richness of the fish resources here was beyond his imagination.

“En? Even though it looks quite rich, there aren’t that many fish schools.” Chu Xian looked around in every direction, but did not find traces of another school.

“This area should be too shallow.” Chu Xian thought to himself. The sea around South Ji Island was only about twenty meter’s deep, and a thirty meter depth counted as deep here.

Since the sea was shallow, there were not as many fish schools as he imagined.

“Forget it. Let’s look for high value fish like the Chinese Bahabas!”

He swam around for a while. The fish around him were not few in number, but he did not find another school, but Chu Xian was not greedy and focused his attention and searched for expensive fish.

“This one isn’t good enough. Over three catties but only a little over a hundred energy.” Chu Xian shook his head as he swam with control ability constantly active.

“This hair tail isn’t good enough either.”

“Yi, what a huge giant lobster. It must weight at least eight or nine catties, and it’s energy rating is over 800. What a luxury.”

“A trout. This kind of fish is relatively expensive, and should go for about a hundred rmb or so.”

Chu Xian swam around casually, and in half an hour he was dragging a train of over a thousand fish behind him.

“Heihei.” Chu Xian looked and smiled, and began devouring.

“My absolute rule increased by three slots.” In only three or four hours, Chu Xian had devoured over ten tons of fish. With this terrifying devouring speed, if he stayed for a month, there would not be many fish left in the area.

Chu Xian obviously did not have this kind of plan, and he continued focusing on expensive fish.

“Yi, there is a small island ahead.” With his sonar ability, Chu Xian could see a small island in the distance up ahead.

“The sea here is much deeper, how strange.”

As he swam forward, Chu Xian felt that the sea around the island grew deeper and deeper.

“What a strange small island. It’s almost like a pillar stuck inside a deep hole.”

As Chu Xian neared, the small island grew clearer and clearer in his vision. It was a very strange island, and the area around it caved downward like a valley, and this small island seemed to grow upwards out of nowhere.

The lower the island went, the narrower it became. Chu Xian thought that the island would certainly fall into the ocean in a couple decades.

“Let’s take a look.” Chu Xian sped forward, and immediately turned to the little island.

“Abalone. The small island’s sheer sides have abalone around it.” Chu Xian quickly neared the small island, and a number of striking abalone appeared in his vision.

Chu Xian swam quickly, and by the sides of the island found three fist sized abalone.

He swam forwards and found an abalone in a cleft inside the rocks. This abalone was also very large, and was about the size of a bowl.

“No way. How are there so many abalone here?” Chu Xian’s face showed his shock. Wild abalones were extremely expensive.

“There are many three headed abalone, and there are even some two headed abalone. Could this be an abalone mountain like the sea cucumber mountain?” Chu Xian’s heart grew excited.

The abalone around the lower the small islands lower edges did not contain as terrifying a number as the sea cucumber mountain had. Chu Xian swam around and took a look, and there were at most a thousand or so abalone, with majority three headed with some two headed interspersed among them.

“I’ll take the two headed abalone back with me.” Chu Xian looked at the bigger abalone on the island and thought to himself.

Last time he had found some two headed abalone in the US, each had been worth over three hundred thousand rmb. There were seven or eight two headed abalone here, and together they should sell for over two million rmb. Even if he did not sell them, he would have a great time eating them.

“I wonder if there might be a one headed abalone here.” Chu Xian thought with some expectation, and swam around the lower parts of the island and looked around.

The foot of the small island was shaped extremely irregularly, and in some places had deep and wide crevices. Every seven to eight meters, Chu Xian found another abalone.

The Chu Xian today was not the poor loser he used to be, and although these three headed abalone were not cheap either, they did not excite him.

“Yi, there is a deep hole?” When Chu Xian swam around to the other side of the little island, he discovered a deep hole.

“A natural hole?” Chu Xian looked down into the small, dark hole, and sent down sound waves to investigate.

“It’s seven to eight meter’s deep, with a diameter of three meters. What a strange island.” Chu Xian measured up the images he saw in his mind, and after some thought, swam into the hole.

He had not detected any creatures inside, but what if there was some sort of treasure?

With these thoughts of adventure and treasure, Chu Xian swam forward.

“Pong!”

But just as he entered the deep hole, a creature lunged forward and attacked him, inflicting burning pain to Chu Xian’s face and forcing him back.

“Ah! What the fuck! What the hell was that?” Chu Xian’s vision was obscured, and he focused on the image of a huge creature.

“Electric shock!” Chu Xian hurriedly used his ability, and high voltage electricity jolted towards at the monster.

“Ssss.” Chu Xian could almost hear the electricity jolting power, and the monster on his face finally let go.

Chu Xian opened his eyes, and with his god’s eye view he could see a deep wound on the top of head where his scales had almost peeled away.

“What is this thing? A sea louse?” Chu Xian looked at what appeared to be a meter long louse and focused.

Combat Power: 3142

“Mother. It really is a sea louse, but this one is actually a meter long, and has a gift for sharp claws. His combat power isn’t any lower than mine, can this actually be a normal sea louse?”

A wave of cold sweat shot through Chu Xian’s heart. No wonder this thing could tear into his head. This was the most protected part of his body, and was even armored with his steel body gift.

“If I didn’t have the steel body, its nails might have even stabbed into my brain. Motherf***, how scary.”

Chu Xian looked at the huge sea louse and shot forward a water bullet charged with electricity.

But the sea louse was extremely agile and easily dodged the attack. Its dozen legs moved continuously, like a dozen sharp knives waving in the water.

“What a monster, but in the end, I’m even more monstrous.” Ferocity appeared on Chu Xian’s face as he darted forward, his two claws jabbing forward and his gaping mouth biting.

The sea louse was not at all afraid of Chu Xian’s attack, and its legs kept waving as its shell moved around quickly like wings. Its burst of speed was not at all slower than Chu Xian’s.

Chu Xian was surprised, and immediately electricty covered his body as water gathered slowly in his mouth.

“Pow!” When the sea louse darted forward to attack his head, Chu Xian shot out the water bullet, and with the extreme flexibility of his body whipped his scaled tail around at the louse.

In an instant, the sea louse was hit by the water bullet and then slapped with the iron-fan tail, and it shot backwards and slammed into the little island.
