The Divine Light's attack was effective; this guy had no way to defend himself, which meant that Li Xingkong still had a way to hurt him.

Then, Li Xingkong caught a severed tentacle, circulated the power of his Golden Core, and attempted to decompose it into energy.

At the beginning, when the tentacles still contained some of the Heluo Fish's will, the Golden Core's analysis and transformation were slightly resisted. However, after a while, the Severance tentacles were transformed into a ball of energy by Li Xingkong's Golden Core.

The transformative power of this Golden Core seems to be working quite well; my attack plan appears to be working correctly.

But when Li Xingkong looked at the ground again, he discovered a problem.

The Divine Light that struck just now severed more than just one or two tentacles, but in the blink of an eye, they all disappeared.

Just like the Ginseng Fruit, it disappears once it falls to the ground.

But how could that be?

However, the Heluo Fish on site wouldn't give Li Xingkong many opportunities, and another wave of tentacles that blotted out the sky swept over.

Li Xingkong once again used Divine Light to slay it, and then observed the whereabouts of the scattered tentacles.

The tentacle did indeed land back on the Heluo Fish's body, but after a short while, the originally hard ground softened and swallowed the tentacle that had landed on it.

Li Xingkong could sense that its devouring was not simply about eating or recycling parts, but rather about absorbing them back into its body as it devoured them.

In other words, the damage Li Xingkong's two Divine Light actually caused to it was extremely limited.

Apart from the tentacle piece he had grabbed, the guy was completely unharmed.

This recovery ability is simply incredible! It's more than just doubling every day as mentioned before. If you were to confront it head-on, you'd probably have to wear it down for who knows how long.

However, although this ability seemed somewhat heaven-defying, the fish was too large and appeared to be difficult to move, which gave Li Xingkong a way to deal with it.

The Magic Power in his hand solidified, and Li Xingkong's Divine Sense rapidly expanded to its maximum range, enveloping a large part of its body.

A beam of Divine Light followed, crashing straight down from the sky.

The Divine Light did not vanish in an instant; instead, it began to slice through the body of the Heluo Fish like a laser scalpel.

Li Xingkong's idea was simple: since this thing was so big and had such a strong regenerative ability, he could just disassemble it and deal with it piece by piece.

Since he was quite skilled in spatial manipulation, he directly stored the severed body parts into the small space.

Without this component, let's see how it can recover itself.

Using his supernatural powers to cut off the first piece, Li Xingkong reached out and grabbed it, drawing in the surrounding Divine Sense and Magic Power.

Perhaps Li Xingkong's move caused Heluo Fish a lot of pain, because the tentacles inside the creature seemed to have gone mad, frantically bursting out from the entire white continent as far as the eye could see.

On the side closer to Li Xingkong, the newly grown tentacles even carried a hint of Magic Power, and huge energy fluctuations emanated from its body, like an energy cannon that was charging up.

Then, a beam of light that blotted out the Li Xingkong had torn open.

Li Xingkong dodged it with a flash, but the beam of light tore through the sky and shot off into the distance, its destination unknown.

The wound on the Heluo Fish had clearly shrunk considerably, indicating that it had expended its own strength to unleash such a devastating attack.

The power is acceptable, but the accuracy... well, it's quite worrying.

Li Xingkong slowly refined the body parts he had cut off from his palm, not in a hurry to attack it again.

It's best to take it one step at a time.

After refining it, Li Xingkong followed the same method and struck it with divine Divine Light once more. The Heluo Fish was truly in a state of impotent rage, as if it had no other choice.

"Rain!"

Just when Li Xingkong thought he could handle it so easily, a strange rhythm suddenly came over, the sound seemed to be coming from the big fish under his feet.

With just a sound, the celestial phenomena around Li Xingkong changed drastically. The next second, a torrential downpour covered the entire sky above the Sea of Heluo. The scene was so spectacular that it looked as if a hole had been torn in the sky.

The Heluo Fish that had been cut twice was like a life-saving medicine.

Despite the heavy rain, the body that had been slashed twice by Li Xingkong quickly recovered.

Li Xingkong tried to use his Magic Power to break through the sudden rain, but his attack seemed to have no effect.

The clouds in the sky dispersed, but the rain continued to fall. The gale was stopped, but the rain still continued. Even when the sun came out and the sky was clear, the rain still didn't stop.

It's like... this rain has nothing to do with any other factor, it's just falling.

The situation suddenly turned somewhat unfavorable for Li Xingkong.

Although he could continue to harm the Heluo Fish and keep cutting it, as long as the rain was there, he couldn't completely kill it.

"This rain..."

Li Xingkong studied it for a long time, ignoring the Heluo Fish under his feet had once again recovered to full health.

The surrounding Magic Power automatically Severance his tentacles, and Li Xingkong first tried to find a way to stop the rain.

"Is this what they call a concept?"

Having studied the demand, all of Li Xingkong's previous knowledge about the causes of rain in the Primordial Universe became meaningless at this moment.

Water vapor? There's no sign of it being mobilized at all. Energy conversion? This rain seems to have appeared out of thin air, without absorbing any energy whatsoever.

After pondering for a long time without any results, Li Xingkong couldn't help but attribute the rain to a word he had only heard of but never seen.

Jiang Ziya had told him before that in this Primordial World, laws and supernatural powers were not important; what mattered was the concept.

The rain summoned by the Heluo Fish seems to be just a concept.

Because everyone knows what rain is like, once it starts, the rain will continue to fall.

Li Xingkong felt somewhat helpless.

If this war of attrition continues to drag on, he will definitely not be the winner.

Just as Li Xingkong was racking his brains for a solution, a thin, almost imperceptible thread descended from the sky.

It was blended into the rain, making it even more concealed.

Even Li Xingkong didn't notice the movement of this thin thread.

"Flap!"

Just as Li Xingkong in thought, he heard a strange noise coming from the Heluo Fish beneath his feet.

Focusing their Divine Sense, they saw that it was a thin line that came from somewhere on the horizon and went straight into the body of the Heluo Fish.

The thin line was taut, like a fishing line, and was being lifted upwards.

In this bizarre scene, Li Xingkong saw that the enormous Heluo Fish was actually scooped up by a fishing line.

The phrase "covering the sky and blotting out the sun" doesn't even begin to describe its size; when it was suspended, Li Xingkong felt that it was the universe itself.

"Hahaha, junior brother, eating fish isn't enough, you also want to see where this fish was caught?"

The fish was pulled up by the line, rising higher and higher, becoming smaller and smaller.

It eventually landed in someone's hand, struggled a couple of times, and was then casually tossed into the fish basket.

Li Xingkong stared intently at the newcomer, dressed in a straw raincoat and carrying a fishing rod. Who else could it be but Jiang Ziya?

Li Xingkong's memories suddenly opened up.

He remembered when he had first heard the name Heluo Fish.

When Jiang Ziya picked him up, there were two or three of these fish in the fish basket beside him.
