Chen Lin reached out and drew the Five-Color Fish out of the pool.
After examining it, he immediately frowned.
Although the Five-Color Fish had little vitality left, it was still some way from death. This puzzled him greatly.
With the power of the Seven-Star Shining Sun cultivation technique, even someone who had only just begun practicing it should have been able to kill a Five-Color Fish.
By his estimation, even an early semi-void opponent should normally have died from a single strike.
The gulf between expectation and reality was far too wide!
"Hm?"
Chen Lin was about to toss the fish back into the pool when he suddenly noticed something amiss.
In his perception, the Five-Color Fish's vitality was still dissipating little by little.
Although the process was slow, it never stopped.
After a moment's thought, he returned the fish to the pool.
Then he used his soul force to track and observe it.
Sure enough, his perception had been correct.
The loss of vitality was not caused by the fish being out of water. It continued even after the fish returned to the pool.
Understanding began to dawn on Chen Lin.
It seemed the God Star's energy was indeed unusual. It did not simply inflict a single instance of damage.
Instead, its damage was continuous.
However, the damage was truly too weak. At this rate of vitality loss, the Five-Color Fish would probably survive an entire day.
Five-Color Fish were nightmare realm creatures of the lowest possible order. In terms of rank, they were inferior even to first-rank monster beasts in the outside world.
If killing such a life-form took an entire day, then even the ability to damage an enemy continuously would be of little use.
Never mind someone in the Semi-Void Realm-even dealing with a golden core
