After Fishing For 10 Years, I Became A Saint Without Knowing How To Raise Beasts

386 Preparing For The Battle With The Sea Heart

Once they arrived, they happened to see the previous batch of people who attempted to absorb the sea heart return with their faces covered in dirt.

Their clothes were in tatters, and there was even one person who had been injured. There was a huge hole in his chest that passed all the way through his back.

Still, it seemed that he would recover with time.

Now, these few people were also sighing in despair.

Without a word, they returned to the small wooden cabin that they had not lived in for a year and started to recuperate.

It was obvious that the one year was like a nightmare to them.

They did not want to say what they had gone through in the past year.

This was not an unusual scenario.

Outside, discussion was rife among the onlookers.

“A year ago, there were still sixteen people, yet only six returned.”

“This sea heart has already become very strong and tough after being tempered with the lives of so many who have tried.”

“Whoever can subdue it will definitely experience a huge increase in strength.”

“That’s easier said than done. Who can actually do it?”

“Not to mention us half-step Dao heart cultivators, even the Dao heart realm seniors…”

“They’ve been trying one after another. It’s been more than 500 years, hasn’t it?”

“I don’t think anyone will be able to successfully subdue it anytime soon.”

Yuchi was standing nearby, and overheard the conversation.

According to what these people were saying, the sea heart could be tempered to become stronger and stronger?

Thinking about it carefully, it was indeed so.

Even if the sea heart did not have a soul, and was not a living being in the true sense of the word, it still operated under certain principles.

It was like a large river. If more water surged into the source of the river, it would become even more dangerous.

Perhaps the sea heart had become more and more brutal because it had absorbed the Dao auras of many cultivators who had tried and died there.

It was like a wild beast that was getting stronger and stronger.

“Interesting.”

The other people then noticed Yuchi’s presence. These three years were just a fleeting moment to cultivators, so there were plenty of people who recognized him.

Although they did not dare to speak openly, they were all internally guessing whether Yuchi had a chance of subduing the sea heart.

After all, Yuchi was a powerful and mysterious person.

Yuchi then followed more than 10 other people to the sea heart.

When the other people on the shore saw Yuchi leave, they finally gave voice to their thoughts.

“Do you guys think that Senior Yuchi will succeed?”

“I think there’s a chance, but it’s not high. Overall, I think the probability is around 1%.”

“I feel that since other Dao heart realm seniors failed to absorb the sea heart as well, it’ll be difficult for Senior Yuchi to succeed where they have failed.”

“Are you blind?”

“Everyone knows that the girl beside Senior Yuchi is a jinx.”

“That girl has been by Senior Yuchi’s side for so many years, yet she hasn’t been killed by other Dao heart realm seniors. Thus, Senior Yuchi definitely possesses unfathomable power. He’s at least more powerful than other Dao heart realm seniors.”

“Now that you mention it, I remember that there’s a jinx by Senior Yuchi’s side.”

“Seeing that he brought such an easy target everywhere and didn’t get killed by others, it seems that Senior Yuchi is quite capable.”

“That’s right. Anyone chosen by a jinx would definitely have a bright future.”

“In this case, the simple fact that both of them are still alive proves his strength.”

“Hey, didn’t some people seek out Senior Yuchi back then?”

“Those two Dao heart realm seniors? There was no news of them after that. It seems that they were killed.”

“It shouldn’t be Senior Yuchi’s doing, right?”

“Nah, this kind of thing is obvious enough.”

“He definitely didn’t kill them, but perhaps he was involved in their deaths somehow.”

“Why don’t we make a bet?”

“Sure, sure.”

Half-step Dao heart realm cultivators could be said to have the easiest time.

Even if they could not absorb the sea heart, they would not be bothered by it.

After all, even Dao heart realm cultivators had failed, so what more ?

It was fine as long as they stayed alive. Furthermore, if they could forge good relationships with the Dao heart realm cultivators here, it would be even more beneficial for them.

No matter what Yuchi thought or how he viewed these people, in the eyes of these half-step Dao heart realm cultivators…

They still had a good impression of Yuchi.

At least Yuchi did not put on any airs. He was a very normal cultivator, which made them feel very comfortable.

…

The woman with two faces was also present, and the flower bell above her head floated gently in the wind.

She, or ‘they’, were listening to the conversations around them.

“It’s clear that Yuchi isn’t a demigod.”

“That’s right,”

“Then do you think he can absorb the sea heart this time?”

“I don’t know. I think the probability is very low. I heard that this sea heart is very strong.”

“I’m thinking that if he can absorb the sea heart on his first try, wouldn’t his talent be a little too terrifying?”

“If his talent isn’t terrifying, if he isn’t strong, then would that jinx choose him?”

“Look at what you’re saying. You don’t know him, and he doesn’t know who you are. Why are you speaking up for him?”

I’m just saying it because I can. Is it a crime for me to speak my mind?”

“Hmph!”

“Do you think he can absorb the sea heart?”

“Will I get a reward for guessing right?”

“If you guess it right, I will shut up for the next three years.

“Alright.”

“I guess he can absorb it.”

“…”

“You really have high hopes for him?”

“What else?”

“Haha, it seems like you’re wrong. I don’t think he can absorb it. How could he succeed in one year?”

“Impossible.”
