In the courtyard, Glenn Clark, who was tidying up the fishhooks, looked up and noticed the smile on Jack Clark’s face and couldn’t help but be curious, “Bro, what are you laughing at?”
Jack casually said, “Nothing, 1 just ate something on the way home, and I’m in a good mood.”
“By the way, how was your catch today?” Jack changed the topic.
Speaking of this, Glenn, who has been immersed in fishing recently, brightened up his eyes and excitedly said, “I caught another big fish today, 1.3 meters long and weighing 38 kilograms.”
“That’s incredible.” Jack was somewhat surprised.
“How much did you sell it for?”
Glenn grinned, “I didn’t sell it. I’m keeping it for now, and we’ll eat it on your birthday in two days. We’ll have a feast with the whole fish.”
“…Alright, let’s eat it in two days.” Jack paused for a moment.
Jack suddenly asked, “Glenn, do you want to eat Mutated Beast Meat?”
Although the fish Glenn caught had some traces of mutation, they were not true mutated beasts, and their meat could only be said to be a little better than that of ordinary fish.
“Yes.”
Glenn’s eyes immediately brightened, but then he hesitated, “But bro, that Mutated Beast Meat is so expensive, and I heard that ordinary people can’t eat it arbitrarily.”
“It’s alright. After the New Year, the school will organize a big sweep to clear the lurking mutated beasts in the surrounding mountains. I’ll bring back a mutated beast with mild blood and flesh content.”
With Jack’s current combat power, ordinary mutated beasts would fall effortlessly in front of him. The sweep after the New Year would be an opportunity for him to harvest Contribution Points.
The next two days flew by without any major incidents.
As the holiday season approached, the festive atmosphere became increasingly strong, and local official television stations began broadcasting highlights from their gala programs.
January 13th, Jack’s birthday.
Today, Doris Raven took a day off specially and went to the vegetable market early in the morning to buy a lot of vegetables. Together with the big fish Glenn had caught, the whole family was busy.
Jack didn’t “slack off” today either, helping with the cooking.
Jack’s family was small, with only one cousin on his father’s generation, and the elders were said to have died in the chaotic era that year.
Later, the Federation was established, and Jack’s father and cousin were brought up by the only surviving aunt, who had already passed away many years ago.
As for Doris, there was only one uncle in the older generation in the countryside. Her parents had passed away due to illnesses several years ago.
Yes, they passed away due to illnesses.
Since the beginning of the New Era, the incidence of diseases in countries around the world has increased significantly every year, sometimes even a severe cold can lead to the deterioration of the body’s organs and rapid death.
This was one of the reasons why the world’s population hadn’t grown much in the past fifty years.
The restaurant was filled with more than a dozen dishes on the table.
Glenn excitedly poured a glass of clear wine for Jack and Doris, stood up happily and said, “Bro, 1 wish you a happy birthday and hope you become the most powerful martial artist soon.”
Doris also held her glass, her eyes gentle, “Jack, Mom wishes your path to be smoother and smoother, your studies to be successful, and for you to be safe and sound.”
Facing the blessings of his only two closest relatives in this life, Jack also stood up, holding his wine glass with a smile, “Thank you, Glenn, Mom, I’m very happy today.”
“Don’t worry, 1 will study and cultivate hard to make our Clark Family prosper more and more.” With that, Jack drank the clear wine in the glass.
Glenn originally wanted to buy white wine, but Doris sternly refused, stating that underage people were not allowed to drink alcohol.
“Alright, let’s eat. We’ve all been busy since morning.”
“Yeah, let’s eat.”
“Hehe, I’ll take the big fish head. I’ve been craving it for a few days.”
Although there were only three of them, the atmosphere at lunch was lively. Jack and Glenn ate more than half of the dishes.
With his enhanced physique, Jack’s digestion ability became more and more terrifying, as did his daily consumption.
However, a cultivator’s consumption can be maintained by cultivating and transforming Heavenly Energy, so they can eat more or less without starving to death.
As for Glenn’s huge appetite, both Jack and Doris had become used to it.
After all, thirteen-year-old Glenn was in the growth stage, needing more nutrition. But such a huge appetite still made Jack doubt if he was about to awaken some kind of talent.
For example, like Howard Lee’s Innate Divine Strength.
After all, before turning fourteen, he was close to 1.8 meters tall, with a burly and fierce frame. In two or three years, wouldn’t he rush to two meters?contemporary romance
After lunch, Doris was asked by the neighbor next door to play mahjong, and Glenn happily went out with his fishing rod. He was going to fish for their “extra meal” dinner.As for Jack Clark, he had his own business to attend to. He came to the wooden corridor in the backyard, sat cross-legged, and began to cultivate.
Although he had attribute points that could save time and achieve a breakthrough in his cultivation methods, with his continuous improvement, Jack’s understanding of cultivation had become even deeper.
Cultivation is not only about pursuing power, but also about the realm and willpower.
This is a path that allows ordinary people to transcend and surpass deities, so it’s destined to be long and difficult, and one must not be blinded by the smooth progress in the early stages.
The sea waves surged on the surface, and a huge black-red Mutated Beast, with a body length of nearly 14 meters, floated on the water, lazily basking in the sun.
Today was its birthday, and it was in a good mood, so it came up for some fresh air.
However, life is full of ups and downs. Just when the Sword Armor Flame Beast decided to take a break today and not kill any other creatures, another ferocious Mutated Beast targeted it.
At a depth of more than 200 meters underwater, a 26-meter-long Mutated Beast with a crocodile-like head covered in heavy outer armor plating was swimming slowly.
Below it were a pair of huge sharp claws, while the rear half of its body had six tentacles similar to those of an octopus, covered in suction cups. Its swimming movements appeared very strange.
This was an extremely fierce deep sea monster, and the Sword Armor Flame Beast responded when it got within a range of 200 meters.
Bang!
Water waves churned on the surface, and the equally ferocious Sword Armor Flame Beast suddenly dived. Its pale gold vertical pupils looked coldly at the deep-sea monster swimming upwards from below.
Seeing that the black Mutated Beast didn’t flee, the terrifying tentacle monster continued to approach slowly. Its massive body radiated an astonishing oppressive aura, while its similarly cold eyes revealed its ferocity and greed.
The Sword Armor Flame Beast’s size was just too deceptive.
In this ocean, where size and energy aura are generally used to measure strength, most of the Mutated Beasts that target the Sword Armor Flame Beast are larger in size.
However, they never imagined that this smaller ‘food’ would have a body density dozens of times greater than theirs, possessing terrifying power far exceeding its size.
Moreover, the Sword Armor Flame Beast had been practicing the Hidden God Method during this time. Although it had not yet completely succeeded, its aura had been somewhat restrained, making it even more deceptive.
When the deep-sea monster approached within 100 meters of the Sword Armor Flame Beast, its tentacles spread out like a chrysanthemum, and the mouths on the tentacles emitted a… hum!
There was no roar or scream, only invisible rings of ultrasonic waves spreading underwater. The Sword Armor Flame Beast instantly felt a terrifying low-frequency vibration explode beside its ears.
Boom, boom, boom, boom!!
Within a range of tens of meters around the Sword Armor Flame Beast, the bodies of marine creatures suddenly exploded.
Both the hard-shelled creatures and the ordinary Mutated Fish, which had developed scale armor due to slight mutations, couldn’t withstand the terrifying low-frequency vibrations and exploded.
Even the defensively powerful Sword Armor Flame Beast felt invisible vibrations penetrating its external armored scales, affecting its flesh and blood.
However, the power of the vibrations that passed through the layers of the exoskeleton and scales and reached its internal organs was reduced to a fraction, only making the Sword Armor Flame Beast feel a little uncomfortable.
Roar! The Sword Armor Flame Beast let out a violent roar, and in an instant, its Blood Qi boiled, and an aura of terrifying ferocity erupted from its body. Its tail suddenly swung.
Bang! The seawater exploded.
The Sword Armor Flame Beast, almost half the size of the deep-sea monster, tore through the water like a black arrow. In the blink of an eye, it reached the deep-sea monster’s face.
At that moment, the mouths on the tentacles suddenly let out baby-like cries. Ah…
Boom! The invisible low-frequency vibrations turned into tangible sound waves that converged, with its power soaring several times. The seawater in front of it instantly shattered and exploded due to the force of the vibrating sound waves.
Under the intense shockwave, the Sword Armor Flame Beast’s body couldn’t help but stall, followed by an explosion of water as it shot to the side.
At the very moment the Sword Armor Flame Beast disappeared, a pair of sharp claws passed by where it had just been.
These were the huge sharp claws of the deep-sea monster, with a black glow flowing on them. Where they passed, the seawater was invisibly split, leaving behind eight pitch-black cracks that refused to heal for a long time.
Witnessing this scene from a distance of 100 meters, the Sword Armor Flame Beast rarely showed a solemn color in its eyes.
This deep-sea monster was powerful, bizarre, and extremely cunning.
It first used invisible vibrations to attack and infuriate the Sword Armor Flame
Beast, attracting it to attack. As it approached in an instant, the attack turned into a highly concentrated, far more powerful shockwave.
Under such circumstances, most attackers would be seriously injured or even killed by the shock.
Even if it hadn’t killed its opponent, it still had its sharp and sinister double claws.
However, do you think you’re the only one with abilities?
The Sword Armor Flame Beast’s cold pupils contracted slightly, and the scorching energy within its body circulated. In an instant, its muscles swelled, especially its hind legs and tail…
Boom! The seawater behind the Sword Armor Flame Beast exploded, and in an instant, a vacuum shockwave burst out tens of meters.
Under the effect of its innate swiftness, the Sword Armor Flame Beast seemingly teleported, spanning a distance of 200 meters and turning into a black beam in the deep-sea, flashing past.
Despite the terrifying speed, even the monster, which had been dominating the battle until now, revealed surprise in its eyes, as its huge double claws instinctively crossed to protect its head.
Behind it, the tentacles spread out like a chrysanthemum emitted an even more terrifying scream.
Boom, boom, boom!! Terrifying sound wave vibrations caused the Sword Armor Flame Beast’s entire body and external scales to vibrate, and the surrounding seawater shattered due to the explosion, emitting thunderous roars.
Roar!
Ignoring the terrifying vibrations, the Sword Armor Flame Beast, which had already reached the monster’s face, let out a violent roar with both claws raised as the endless terrifying power within its body gathered.
Boom!
With a hundred-fold power and the technique of angry elephants trampling the sky, its strength burst forth like a tangible force, instantly obliterating the seawater in front of it and leaving behind a pitch-black vacuum.
Under such a terrifying force, the deep-sea monster’s protective claws were instantly broken, and its body leaned back to dodge its head.
Boom!
A large piece of the monster’s heavy armor scales crumbled, its chest caved in, and its huge body was blasted back tens of meters by the strike, causing the surrounding seawater to become chaotic. It suffered a heavy injury with just one hit..
