Of course, Sun Chengshan was not the only one who discovered such a good battlefield. Soon, other martial artists arrived one after another.
They were quite wary of the group led by Sun Chengshan and would tacitly keep a distance from them.
This was to prevent them from getting into a conflict and getting beaten up by the disciples of the Shadowless Fist Dojo.
This was the advantage of being in a group of a big number which often served as a deterrent.
"They're coming!"
Wang Yu suddenly heard a cry from afar and immediately narrowed his eyes.
In a low depression, a silver-spotted octopus emerged from the sea.
What was surprising was that this octopus actually used its tentacles to stand upright on the sand.
Its fat head had reached at least two to three meters high.
The so-called mollusk didn't seem to be like one.
The few martial artists who were closest to it were stunned.
Looking at the large number of tentacles floating in front of them, they didn't know where to start.
The octopus was quite ferocious. Four of its supporting tentacles quickly crawled towards the human martial artists with sand on them. Its speed was surprisingly fast.
The martial artist who was targeted did not have time to run away. He could only roar for courage and jump up to slash at the crawling octopus.
He used all his strength, trying to cut the octopus in half right from its head.
However, the octopus's tentacles moved even faster. The martial artist only had time to cut off one of the tentacles before the rest instantly wrapped around his entire body.
At the same time, the octopus released a paralyzing poison, causing the martial artist's body to twitch.
Immediately after, the suckers on the tentacles drilled out sharp bone spikes and pierced his body full of holes. The blood that surged out was quickly absorbed by the octopus.
It was obvious that this martial artist lost his life without getting any treasure yet.
"What!" Wang Yu's expression changed slightly.
"Master, are we going to deal with such a monster?!"
This was very different from what he had expected.
What happened to the precious seafood ingredients?
Sun Chengshan shook his head and said, "That guy was too reckless. That's a poisonous vine octopus. It's said that it lives 3,000 meters under the Silver Belt Sea. It carries unknown poison and is not to be trifled with.
If caught by those tentacles, even I might not be able to break free."
"Then how are we going to deal with it?" Zhang Erdan quickly asked in fear.
"You can't deal with it. Be smart and run when you see it.
Only if one's reaction speed is faster than its tentacles can one find an opportunity to kill it. To reach this reaction speed, one has to be at least a fourth-level Body Tempering martial artist."
Sun Chengshan instructed. He would tell these disciples everything he knew from those useful experiences.
"In addition, the colloid of the flesh and blood of this poisonous vine octopus is quite nutritious. If handled well, its value will even exceed that of blood pork.
That thing seems weird and difficult, but I think there must be people who can deal with it."
Just as Sun Chengshan had said, three martial artists quickly rushed towards the poisonous vine octopus at the same time.
They were obviously more agile and calm. They easily dodged the octopus's tentacles and killed it in two or three moves after managing to get near it.
They also saved the martial artist who was suffering from excessive bleeding still barely breathing.
Then, the three of them quickly retreated with the octopus corpse and the seriously injured martial artist.
Their actions were clean and efficient without a pause.
It was obvious that these three people were experienced in handling such matters.
The place near the tide was the most dangerous now. No one should stay there.
If one encountered an unheard-of deep-sea monster that suddenly pounced on him, he would not be able to dodge it.
Suddenly, another wave hit the pile of rocks where Wang Yu and the others were, causing the seawater to splash.
Some tiny living things were washed ashore.
Wang Yu looked down and saw more than ten small fish jumping between the rocks.
They were covered in green scales and were the size of a palm.
Their mouths bulged with two rows of densely-formed spiky teeth.
Wang Yu looked at the jumping fish and found them familiar.
He suddenly remembered that these were the dried salted fish that Sun Chengshan had given him back then.
Those were also palm-sized and their salty and bitter taste was memorable.
They were also a precious ingredient, but their nutrition and energy were much inferior to blood pork.
With his current physique, eating a few of the fish might not even be as good as eating a mouthful of blood pork.
But anyway, they were better than nothing.
"Master," Wang Yu said.
"Yes, those are thin-leaf fish. Nothing of a threat. Follow Hezheng down to get them. Be careful not to get bitten by their sharp teeth" Sun Chengshan said.
"Yes." Song nodded.
The two of them then walked down the slope to where the fish were scattered.
When Wang Yu approached, the fish seemed to feel threatened and let out strange hisses.
They even bared their teeth at Wang Yu, looking a little hideous. They were waiting for Wang Yu to reach out so they could bite him.
However, Wang Yu was even faster. He attacked like a lightning after approaching them and slapped the fish, directly killing them.
He casually threw the fish up by their tails.
The other disciples caught the fish and placed them into the cargo boxes.
There were martial artists who hesitated at a distance. In the end, they did not dare to come over and compete with Wang Yu's group for these small fish.
Soon, more than ten thin-leaf fish were taken by Wang Yu and Song Hezheng.
Just then, Sun Chengshan stood on the stone slope and saw that there was another unusual movement in the rising sea. He immediately called out to Wang Yu and Song Hezheng.
Wang Yu decisively rushed up the stone slope without looking back and even used his movement technique.
Not only did Song Hezheng react later, but he was also slower. He had just retreated halfway up the slope.
Like a torpedo, a large fish exploded through the water and soared into the air, crashing into Song Hezheng who was still climbing up the slope.
With the size and speed of the fish, if it hit Song Hezheng, he would probably be injured, or even severely injured.
Seeing this, Sun Chengshan was a little anxious. He suddenly gathered his energy and rushed down.
His physical strength was already at the peak of the fifth level of Body Tempering, and he was half a step away from the sixth level.
Therefore, when he charged with all his might, his power was notable and his speed was very quick.
He acted really quickly to punch the big fish.
The big fish and Sun rolled down the rocky slope at the same time.
Wang Yu turned around. He did not expect the situation to unfold like this.
Sun Chengshan was eager to save his disciple. After he fell, one could clearly see that his arm was covered in bloody cuts.
The fish rolled to the side. It did not look injured, which showed how tough its skin was.
"Master!" The disciples were also in shock.
Things happened too suddenly. Sun Chengshan had fallen and been injured.
Song Hezheng who had been saved was the most upset one. He gritted his teeth and jumped down to protect Sun Chengshan.
The fish clung to the rock and twisted its long body. It looked like both a fish and a sea snake. It was two meters long and thick and round.
The green spots on its body were speckled with dense particles.
"Hezheng, back away. You can't deal with this green-spotted snake!"
Sun Chengshan frowned as he held his injured arm, wanting to berate Song Hezheng.
Song Hezheng stood in front of Sun Chengshan silent, all his attention focused on the green-spotted snake.
