After Fishing For 10 Years, I Became A Saint Without Knowing How To Raise Beasts

Chapter 40: One Of The Three Kings Is Dead, The Goddess Medusa

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

A few bubbles appeared on the surface of the Netherworld Sea, and Yuchi squirmed out.

His body had been almost completely destroyed.

All that was left was a pair of eyes that were gradually losing their crazy sheen, looking at the world in front of him blankly.

His arms were gone.

His legs were gone.

One ear was gone too.

His entire body was in tatters and covered in wounds caused by the fighting.

However...

“In the end, I survived. I didn’t let you go this time.”

“It seems like my will is still a level higher than yours.”

“You were clearly much stronger than me, and would probably have been able to easily destroy me back then.”

“But that was back then, during the ancient era when you were still alive.”

“You’ve been dead for many years now.”

......

“The long period of death and peace caused you to lose the ferocity and willpower you probably had back then.”

“This battle…”

“Is my victory!”

“I think you should still be proud, though. Your defeat was a glorious one.”

The power of the Three-headed Naga Siren was too terrifying!

Yuchi had never seen such a terrifying creature, not just in this life, but even in his previous life!

This was an existence that completely overpowered him in every aspect.

He could feel his blood boiling the moment they started fighting. He was even pressured by the latter’s superior bloodline when they fought in close combat.

The superiority of its bloodline could not be challenged.

However, Yuchi was not afraid.

The battle itself was a matter of life and death.

Battle itself was a cruel thing, and cruelty flowed through the blood of every race in this world.

The heavens were fair.

The human race had gained slyness, treachery, and greed, but they had also lost the purity of violent strength.

They had been tamed and bred for captivity.

All sorts of thoughts were instilled into humans day by day by other humans who lorded over them.

In Yuchi’s eyes, the human race was a fallen, corrupt empire.

They used to be very strong back then.

Now though, their presence was weakening and they were struggling to survive. They were constantly losing ground in the war against the other races.

In the end, it was their will to fight that had vanished. In the end, they had forgotten how true war and fighting was like. The desire for battle no longer flowed through their veins.

Peace was not obtained by begging or cajoling; peace was obtained by fighting.

“I’m glad that I was reborn here. I’m glad that I’ve gradually recognized who I am during the past two or so years.”

“I’m glad that I have all of this and I’m glad that I can still see the world clearly.”

Yuchi’s four limbs were destroyed, so he completely disappeared from the prisoners’ sight for the next month.

The injuries he had sustained from fighting the Three-headed Naga Siren was far too great!

Yuchi had been floating in a corner of the sea near the island for a month.

After a month, he would have finally recovered enough to leave the Netherworld Sea.

Only then could he climb back to shore and sit there like an old man, fishing in the cold depths of the Netherworld Sea.

The gains from this battle were plentiful!

[Catch: Netherworld Sea – Three-headed Naga Siren]

[Grade: SS]

[Attribute: Ghost]

[Skill 1: Tiger’s Roar]

[Skill 2: Jackal’s Breath]

[Skill 3: Thunder Dragon’s Fury]

[Skill 4: Enrage]

[Introduction: The Three-headed Naga Siren was one of the emperors of the ancient Netherworld Sea. As one of the emperors, it once ruled half of the Netherworld Sea! When it died, it knelt before the goddess in front of it, and its three heads gradually lowered, signifying the end of an era.]

The Three-headed Naga Siren’s attributes were the most terrifying he had ever seen. It had four skills.

These four skills really made Yuchi suffer in battle. They were too brutal.

Especially that last skill!

“Enrage!”

The more injured it became, the stronger it got. In the beginning, most attacks on it were effective but, as the battle dragged on, these attacks started losing their effectiveness.

It was too terrifying!

This was the perfect interpretation of the saying, “a starving camel was still bigger than a horse!”

Yuchi’s attributes had also increased from 12304 to 24608.

If he were to be compared to the soul beast of a beast tamer, his current level would be close to SS-grade, which was almost equivalent to the level of the Three-headed Naga Siren!

Of course, the Three-headed Naga Siren was already dead.

It was just that it had been fished out of the netherworld by Yuchi’s fishing rod. The Three-headed Naga Siren when it was alive was definitely not an existence that Yuchi could defeat.

At that time, the Naga Siren did not have three heads, but nine heads.

Also, this time, Yuchi had suffered a loss.

Although all his attributes had increased from 12306 to 24608, which meant that they had basically doubled. The potential gain from devouring and defeating the Three-headed Naga Siren was far more than the increase he received.

The primary reason for this was that Yuchi’s original attributes were too low.

Due to this, Yuchi had no way of fully absorbing everything.

He had probably lost about 8000 points.

Despite this, Yuchi remained upbeat.

He knew this, but it did not matter.

The outcome of the battle was gradually becoming unimportant to him. The main thing was that he enjoyed the thrill of the fight.

“I’m now gradually gaining an understanding of how soul beasts are graded.”

“My strength is almost equivalent to an SS-grade soul beast now.”

“Overall, it’s not too bad.”

Yuchi had seriously underestimated his own strength. There were only three SS-grade beast tamers in each human city.

In other words...

In a super-sized human city with a population of 10 billion people, there were only three SS-grade beast tamers.

One of them would be the principal of that city’s academy.

One of them would be the Secretary of the Department of Inspection…

And the last one would be an ancestor of some powerful family.

If he went to the city to act like a tyrant, those three people would probably smile and treat him as a brother.

Still, he had spent his entire new life here fighting against ancient monsters, so trivial matters like this did not pique his interest.

“There should be two other ancient monsters of the same level as the Three-headed Naga Siren in the Netherworld Sea.”

“I’m the only one who can see these two ancient beasts in the illustrated compendium.”

“In that sense, I’m the only one qualified to reach the real goddess.”

“The ancient goddess, Medusa!”

Yuchi’s eyes were burning with anticipation when he uttered those words.

Medusa!

Although the fishing rod in his hand could connect fish up ancient monsters from the netherworld, many of the ancient monsters had some prerequisites that needed to be met before they could be encountered.

These prerequisites were clearly written in the illustrated compendium.

For example, to fish up Medusa, he needed to defeat three ancient beasts.

The first was the Three-headed Naga Siren.

The second type was the World Python…

And the third type was the Siren.

Yuchi had already dealt with the Three-headed Naga Siren, but had not encountered the World Python and the Siren.

“I don’t know when I’ll be able to encounter the other two.”

“No matter what, unless I catch and defeat Medusa, I will never leave the Netherworld Sea.”

…

One day later.

Yuchi had finally completely recovered. He also took a brief look at his current attributes.

[Name: Yuchi]

[Constitution: 24608]

[Strength: 24608]

[Speed: 24608]

[Skill 1: Thunder Dragon’s Fury. Summon the Thunder Dragon to assist you, making your enemies tremble.]

[Skill 2: Enrage. Pain brings strength, pain brings resistance, and pain brings joy.]

[Skill 3: Hellfire. Hurl clusters of blinding hellfire to burn your enemies like maggots!]

[Skill 4: Blood Spike. Gather the blood essence and qi in your body and use them to condense a blood spike. The wounds caused by it are extremely difficult to heal and will bleed continuously!”

Yuchi did not use all four of the Three-headed Naga Siren’s skills. Instead, he chose two that he thought were good and placed the other two in the skill pool.

This was not because the other two skills of the Three-headed Naga Siren were too weak, but rather because two pure damage skills were enough for him.

Otherwise, if he chose to use four pure damage skills that required a lot of energy, it would serve no practical benefit to his overall combat strength other than being awesome to look at.

The reason why he had been able to defeat the Three-headed Naga Sirenwas mainly because of the blood spike skill.

Hence, he kept this skill for close combat.

The hellfire skill could be used for long-ranged combat.

Enrage was a passive skill that could not be activated at will.

The last one, Thunder Dragon’s Fury, was a unique skill.

“If I can replace hellfire with a minor damage skill with certain restraining capabilities, then my skill setup would be perfect.”

“I don’t really want to lose the blood spike skill just yet.”

“I still need to carefully think about my skill combinations. Some skills can also have unexpected effects when used together.”

While Yuchi was fishing, he was constantly thinking about his skill pool.

On the other side, something major had happened to the beautiful psychologist, Qin Lanyu, and it was something that would decide her fate.
