Chapter 859: Silver Line and Golden Spear (Part 1)

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

The size of a single-horned white whale ranged between one-hundred to three-hundred yards and had nothing to do with their age or gender. No matter how big the whale was, their combat abilities were astounding. The gigantic magic nuclei in their brains provided them with powerful abilities. Their defense was even better than pan’s turtles; hence they had little to no enemies in the Oceanic Ice Block.

The silver line golden spearfish was one of the few creatures that could kill a single-horned white whale, but there were very few of them. The spears on ordinary spearfish were sharp, but they were no match for single-horned white whales. Only the combination of speed, explosiveness, and its spear allowed the silver line golden spearfish to pierce through its prey easily.

Even Saleen was careful not to let the pan’s turtle alchemical boat get pierced by the spearfish or else there would surely be holes in the ship.

Saleen was tempted. The spear of the silver line golden spearfish was a powerful magic weapon on its own, even without the need for refining. If he refined it a little with water flame, killing the single-horned white whale would become much more straightforward. At least if they were to encounter a live white whale at the cemetery, they would not be in too much danger. They must hunt down the silver line golden spearfish successfully!

The pan’s turtle alchemical boat was only about thirty yards long while the silver line golden spearfish was close to one-hundred yards long. The waters there were more than three-thousand yards deep and the water pressure was immense. Saleen was not really affected since his body was mostly of water elements, but Nicholas was not doing so well. Although she was at grade-9, his combat abilities were greatly reduced in such deep waters. Nailisi was no match for the winged skeleton in that state.

“Nailisi, both of us will go. Nicholas, prepare your healing divine spell. I might get injured. Eleanor, give me one of your healing medicines.”

“Master!” The winged skeleton panicked. Saleen waved his hand and said, “Only my special technique will be able to subdue it. You won’t be able to do it.”

With that, Saleen took a healing medicine from Eleanor. It was a green-colored pill which he popped into his mouth. After inspecting his devil suit, he put on his crystal ring and summoned Nailisi to leave the pan’s turtle alchemical boat.

After leaving the ship, Saleen told the winged skeleton, “Soldier, I will not be able to catch up to that creature. Use your bone spirit to attack it and lure it over.”

Saleen’s face was hidden beneath the devil mask as he stared at the silver line golden spearfish from far away. That big creature was with a group of graters. Graters were a type of fish magic beasts that were not very intelligent and would attack anything within their sights. The teeth that they had were even sharper than those of iron sharks.

Graters were quite big and were as long as two or three yards. Each school of them consisted of a few thousand. Graters were nothing to the silver line golden spearfish, but the latter did not expect the former to try and attack it.

Graters were not as fast as silver line golden spearfish, it was just that the latter had tried to take a shortcut by cutting through a row of underwater mountains before encountering the school of graters. Hundreds of graters pounced on it instantaneously and they bit at the silver line golden spearfish without hesitation.

The body of the silver line golden spearfish looked smooth like a lightning dragon with sticky silver fluid on it. Its streamline body shape allowed it to move faster than any other creature in the sea. Of course, it also had a unique way of swimming that was impossible for other fish to emulate.

The spearfish’s silver line grew inside its flesh and around its entire body, just like the blood vessels of humans. Countless silver lines would eventually gather together in its spine to enter the brain in order to be connected to its magic nucleus. The graters pounced and wanted to bite silver line golden spearfish’s body. The spearfish’s magic nucleus unleashed a powerful elemental ripple, causing its silver lines to spasm along with its muscles.

The mouth of each grater was pierced with a long and narrow ice thorn. The ice thorn was more than three yards long and it pierced through the entire grater’s body. Hundreds of graters were pierced to death before being frozen into ice blocks.

The other graters in front were unafraid of death and continued to pounce at the silver line golden spearfish. This big creature was within one-hundred yards and was the ideal target for the graters.

The muscles of the spearfish continued to spasm. Each grater’s mouth was pierced with an ice thorn before they could even land a bite on the spearfish. The shape of the ice thorns were exactly the same as the spear on the silver line golden spearfish’s head.

Saleen witnessed all that and he was terrified. There was no weakness to the silver line golden spearfish’s attack and its mental strength was incredibly powerful! None of his defense spells would be able to block off the silver line golden spearfish’s attack. Besides, his crystal finger and eye of lightning were spells that could only be used at close distances.

The ice thorns produced by the silver line golden spearfish had to be a grade-9 elemental spell. The incredible thing was that the spearfish was able to unleash thousands of ice thorns continuously. The magic beast was unbeatable!

In order to be able to cast grade-9 spells for more than one-thousand times, Saleen could not image how powerful the spearfish’s mental strength had to be. It was impossible. There was no way it was due to such powerful mental strength. Even grade-10 mages would not be able to cast grade-9 spells for more than one-thousand times!

The silver line golden spearfish must have its own unique way of casting magic attacks, otherwise there was no way it could have cast so many spells just by depending on mental strength alone to activate the elemental powers within the magic nucleus.

Within three seconds, Saleen managed to calm himself down. The silver line golden spearfish was indeed terrifying. Its entire body was capable of casting grade-9 magic attacks. That was equivalent to a magic porcupine. If one was to touch a magic porcupine, one was as good as dead. Nevertheless, Saleen’s eye of lightning could attack at a distance of eight yards.

It was a pity that Saleen’s lightning dragons were still asleep, otherwise twenty-four grade-9 lightning dragons would definitely be capable of electrocuting the spearfish to death.

The lightning dragons’ advancement was more difficult than Saleen imagined. That was not surprising because when the lightning dragons advanced from grade-8 to grade-9, not only did they become more powerful, they had also transformed into something else that no longer relied on water and could fight on land. If they advanced to grade-10, they would gain powerful flying abilities.

Saleen had never been worried about the future developments of the Oceanic Ice Block because he knew that it was only a matter of time before the lightning dragons completed their advancement. It was extremely difficult for such creatures to advance, but once they did, they would be unbeatable against enemies of the same grade since they were grade-9 magic beasts that were able to unleash electricity.

As for grade-10 lightning dragon, if not for the fact Saleen’s clan badge could absorb the power of lightning, he would have been electrocuted into dust long ago.

The winged skeleton had also seen how the silver line golden spearfish fought. That was when he understood what Saleen meant. There was nothing he could do even if he had gone. His resilient body might help him block off a few of the ice thorns, but there was no way he could withstand more than one-thousand of them.

Twelve bone spirits swam out quickly from the pan’s turtle alchemical boat with Bloodstone. They swam straight for the silver line golden spearfish. On the other hand, Saleen and Nailisi remained behind and below the spearfish and did not get closer immediately.

The bone spirits were extremely fast, especially in the Oceanic Ice Block. The death aura there was very thick, so it was as if they had returned to the death dimension. Bone spirits were traveling at a speed of two-hundred and forty miles an hour, a speed that had never been seen before.

If the silver line golden spearfish was determined to escape, there was no way the bone spirits would be able to chase it down. The spearfish was busy slaughtering the graters and did not pay any attention to the twelve bone spirits. Although the spearfish was not a grade-10 magic beast, no other creature in the region of the sea was a match for it. Grade-10 magic beasts were not as fast as the spearfish, so they dared not fight with it. The spearfish’s spear could pierce through even grade-10 magic beasts, killing them in an instant.

The bone spirits produced by the winged skeleton were only grade-4 at most. Spirits of the dead of such grades were just like the sands and pebbles on the bottom of the sea to the silver line golden spearfish. There was no need to pay any attention to them.

The bone spirits swam ahead and crashed hard into the ice thorn that was cast by the silver line golden spearfish.

Although the spearfish did not see the bone spirits as threats, there was no reason for it to allow the bone spirits to crash into its body. It cast twelve ice thorns that were as long as a yard each.

When the ice thorns pierced into the bodies of the bone spirits, their soul flames were extinguished immediately and the Bloodstone that they had been carrying also exploded.

The silver lines in the body of the spearfish immediately sensed danger. Hundreds of small scales began to appear and expand on the smooth surface of its skin to form a silver hexagonal shield.

It was as if the scales had fallen off the silver line golden spearfish’s body and were floating around, but in actual fact it was just an elemental illusion.

The powerful ripple forced all the surrounding graters backwards. The ten or so graters that were closer to the Bloodstone were killed by the explosion.

The silver line golden spearfish had been toying around with the graters, but it had become infuriated. It turned around in the water, as its gigantic body did not even produce any water currents.

That action tempted Saleen greatly. It was best if they could capture the silver line golden spearfish alive, so that he could study it and find out how it managed to achieve that.

The winged skeleton did not dare to hesitate as he cast another powerful Death Ripple. As the spherical ripples spread out, the silver line golden spearfish bent its body before springing into a straight line and shot at the pan’s turtle alchemical boat like a bolt of lightning.

The Death Ripple was penetrated by its ice thorns and failed to harm the spearfish at all! The silver sticky fluid on its entire body acted as a buffer against the death magic spell. Its speed was astounding, and it was so fast that it left behind a trail of emptiness in the sea before the water collapsed inwards and created an explosive sound.

What Saleen saw was that it was as if the silver line golden spearfish was dragging a long white line towards the pan’s turtle alchemical boat.

The pan’s turtle alchemical boat had no chance against the silver line golden spearfish’s attack. A gigantic ball of water flame suddenly appeared in Saleen’s hand and tornados appeared around him. There was snow amidst the underwater tornado as it cut towards the spearfish’s body.

Nailisi was already in her original imp form. Her entire body was flowing with blue electric current as she followed behind Saleen and swooped forward, intending to stop the silver line golden spearfish.

There was no way the pan’s turtle alchemical boat could evade the attack. The ship only needed to be pierced once by the silver line golden spearfish and it would sink.
