Chapter 22 Like Attraction
The Nine-Leak Fish is a marine mythical creature known for having an empty brain and nine holes in its body. It is said that these nine holes are what cause the Nine-Leak Fish to have low intelligence.
Despite its low intelligence, the Nine-Leak Fish is a genuine top-grade Black Iron spirit beast.
Water attribute, racial talent is "Forgetting", the body will repair itself due to its own forgetting, and the repair process will instinctively absorb the surrounding water attribute energy to speed up the process.
The Nine-Leak Fish only possesses one skill, which is the advanced skill "Healing Water Ring".
The Healing Water Ring can spray out a ring of water that surrounds itself, amplifying and strengthening its physical abilities while also providing strong defense and self-repair capabilities.
Perhaps because a Black Iron type has mastered advanced skills, the Nine-Leak Fish's combat strength is comparable to that of a roadside beast, but it is extremely popular as a healing and support-type spirit beast.
This kind of mythical beast is extremely rare in the entire Dragon Kingdom.
Furthermore, due to its powerful healing ability, each one, regardless of its strength, can easily sell for over a million.
Xu Xian's eyes almost turned red with envy.
What incredible luck Zhou Li has!
"As expected, he's a 'nine-legged fish'!" A surprised exclamation reached Xu Xian and Zhou Li's ears.
The two men were busy catching fish when they noticed seven shady-looking men walking towards them from a distance.
They ranged in age, some in their thirties and others no more than the same age as Xu Xian and Zhou Li.
Wawa silently walked up to Xu Xian. The scales on the golden armor on Zhou Li's shoulder protruded upwards, and the thin, long tail shimmered with a golden hue.
Two eyes were fixed on the seven humans approaching.
The leader of the seven was a burly man, accompanied by a black wolfhound that was more than half a meter tall.
As it walks, a gentle breeze seems to emanate from its body.
Black Wolfhound, wind attribute, mid-grade black iron, talent is "Riding the Wind", when the wind blows around it, it can ride the wind and waves to increase its speed, and has only one basic skill "Wind Blade".
Judging from the size of the black wolfhound, this spirit beast is already very close to being of advanced level.
As for why it wasn't high-class, Xu Xian could clearly feel the difference between the other party and his father's giant hairy dog.
The burly man at the head of the group had one eye, and his six henchmen spread out and surrounded Xu Xian and his companions in a fox-like formation.
The burly man touched his shiny bald head, wiped away the sweat, and gave what he thought was a friendly smile. "Young men, we found this nine-legged fish from the beginning. Please return it to us."
Hearing the big man say that, Zhou Li sneered.
"You said you discovered it in the first place, so how did it end up in our hands?"
"What did you say?!" the youngest of the thugs yelled, leaning forward menacingly.
Xu Xian said calmly, "If you dare take another step closer, I'll throw you into the water so you can calm down."
The thug scoffed at Xu Xian's words and didn't take them to heart at all.
The other thugs also wore sneers.
The thug leader still wore that smug smile. "Young man, don't be so impulsive. It's always better to stay calm when you're out and about."
As soon as he finished speaking, the thug stepped forward with a smug look on his face.
Zhou Li was speechless; how could he possibly encounter such a mess?
Are you all illiterate? You can't even recognize this huge golden beast on my shoulder?
Even Xu Xian, let alone Zhou Li, almost laughed.
That's why knowledge is so valuable! We must learn knowledge!
Their shortsightedness was truly on full display in the eyes of this group of people.
"Wawa!" Xu Xian called softly.
The thug sneered, "Kid, hand over the nine-fish, and we'll happily share some of our fishing fee with you. If you don't, hmph!"
The thug clenched his fists so tightly they cracked.
However, after taking two more steps, he suddenly felt his body lighten and his whole body was suspended in the air.
Before they could even react, they were thrown headfirst into the water amidst the thugs' gasps of surprise.
The suffocating feeling after instantly choking on water filled my entire body and brain.
The burly thug's face instantly darkened and turned ugly.
The black wolfhound beside him immediately understood its master's intention and darted out in a flash.
I didn't use any skills.
The big man was only after money, but he wasn't stupid.
These two people in front of me are obviously beast tamers, and they're so young. I can just teach them a lesson. If I really hurt them, I'll probably have to pay a lot of money.
Unfortunately for them, Xu Xian was not about to let them have their way, and Wawa was not about to allow other spirit beasts to threaten them and their master.
With a single breath, a giant water bubble enveloped Xu Xian and his companions.
puff! !
The black wolfhound plunged into the water bubble, but its momentum was immediately halted by the water flow inside.
"Use Wind Blade!" Seeing that things were going badly, the thug no longer held back.
The black wolfhound opened its mouth and a meter-long wind blade, carrying the force of waves, flew out.
Although the surging bubble combines offense and defense.
However, his proficiency was not high, not to mention that the increased range significantly weakened his defensive capabilities.
The Black Wolfhound is not only at the peak of the intermediate level, but it also only has this one skill.
In terms of skill, it was already proficient. With a single wind blade, it split the water flow in two and continued flying towards Wawa with undiminished momentum.
If Wawa were hit, he would be seriously injured.
Fortunately, Wawa has more than just one or two moves.
Zhou Li wanted to use his telekinesis again to control the wind blade, but he couldn't just stand by and watch indifferently any longer.
"Wealth and Prosperity, the Vajra Shield!"
"Ah!!" The golden-armored beast opened its small mouth and roared forward.
The little guy looks adorable, but when he activates his skill, his whole body shines with shimmering golden light.
A majestic and awe-inspiring giant shadow seemed to emerge from the small beast's body. This giant shadow spread its claws and immediately erected a round, thick shield of golden light.
The thugs were stunned when they saw this.
The burly man at the head of the group thought to himself that they were doomed.
This beast is clearly in its infancy. For it to possess such an astonishing skill at this stage, it must be at least a Bronze-level creature!
The Great Han didn't know much, but he was aware that even the lowest grade of a Bronze Race cub on the market would cost eight or nine million, or even tens of millions, and even then, the supply couldn't meet the demand and the price often exceeded that.
The wind blade, accompanied by a wave of air, swept in, and when it came into contact with the Vajra Shield, both shattered upon impact.
The wind blades shattered, transforming into small whirlwinds that swept across the four directions, while the Vajra Shield broke apart into golden particles that resembled tiny, dazzling fireworks.
Seeing that its first attack had failed, the black wolfhound tried to unleash another wind blade, but how could Xu Xian allow it to succeed?
"Waaah!"
Without Xu Xian's command, Wawa's mental power was already poised to be unleashed.
The eerie blue light enveloped the black wolfhound, causing it to crash into the water like a struggling thug, creating a large splash.
Immediately afterwards, a surge of water was twisted into arrows by Wawa's telekinesis and aimed at the thugs.
Under the intense sunlight, these water arrows emitted a cold, chilling light, instantly causing the thugs to break out in a cold sweat.
"Hey, Brother Xian, don't be impulsive!" Zhou Li quickly advised.
Xu Xian crossed his arms over his chest, and Wa Wa spread his webbed feet, floating into the air, with hundreds of water arrows, each less than twenty centimeters long, floating behind him.
This is truly astonishing!
