Chapter 1837: Spike Shrimps

Translator: WQL Editor: Aleem

“You want to trap Versatile Demon Emperor?” Bian Heng asked as he goggled at Zhang Tie as if Zhang Tie was a lunatic, “You’ve just survived his fatal strike. Are you courting death? Demon Emperor is not that foolish. Do you know how many demon generals were killed when Versatile Demon Emperor ambushed Runed Emperor? Even though you’ve got the essence of the Immortal Fist Skill, you still couldn’t defeat Versatile Demon Emperor. A wind immortal general wants to trap Versatile Demon Emperor, you must be sick...”

“Of course, I can’t do it alone!” Zhang Tie smirked as he added, “I’m aware of my own ability. But if I could have some helpers such as elder brother, through a considerate plan, I think It’s possible for us to trap him!”

“Forget about that. I don’t want to die so fast!” Bian Heng swung his sleeves as he intended to walk outside, saying, “Listen, if you want to kill such a power, you should find 2 immortal emperors or 7,000-8,000 fearless immortal generals to form an unrivaled battle formation...”

“Elder brother, take it easy. Don’t be so serious. If I try my best, I could at least trap his subordinate supreme-level immortal generals, even if I couldn’t trap demon emperors!”

“I will help you cure your disease and tell others that you’ve not healed yet. But I would never participate in this thing. It’s the job of Star Emperor, Force Emperor, Dragon Emperor and those people in Emperor NvWa’s Palace to kill Versatile Demon Emperor and the supreme-level immortal generals in Dark Emperor Immortal Palace. I would never take such a risk. Even if I could help you kill Versatile Demon Emperor and the supreme-level immortal generals of Dark Emperor Immortal Palace, I would not get any benefits at all. I would even lose my life. Even idiots would not do that. Additionally, Versatile Demon Emperor is pretty cunning. Even if you want to trap his supreme-level immortal generals, you have to prevent from being trapping by him. Like those fishers on the ocean, previously they just wanted to catch some small fish; unexpectedly, many of them became the food of sharks. In many cases, after you threw out of your fishhook, you could not decide what you would get. Additionally, if I want something, as long as I ask for it, people would queue up to gift it to me. I don’t need to risk my life at all. Humph...”

After saying that, Bian Heng took his medical kit and left Tiderviewing Courtyard rapidly, leaving Zhang Tie alone.

Rubbing his face, Zhang Tie watched Bian Heng’s back and thought about his words. Bian Heng’s words really reminded him that it was not that easy for him to deal with Versatile Demon Emperor. The key was that it was very difficult for Zhang Tie to find some powerful helpers who dared fight Versatile Demon Emperor.

Ordinary people wouldn’t do any help to him; however, powers like Bian Heng would not like to risk their lives doing that unless they were backed to a corner by Versatile Demon Emperor; because the benefits didn’t worth their payment.

‘If I want to trap the heads of the branches of Dark Emperor Immortal Palace, I have to be ready for the situation that it was Versatile Demon Emperor who enters the trap. Otherwise, I might be eaten by a shark before getting any small fish.’

‘Only immortal emperors could deal with Versatile Demon Emperor. Across Motian Realm, there are only two immortal emperors, namely Star Emperor and Force Emperor. There might also be an immortal emperor in Emperor NvWa’s Palace; but I’m afraid that it’s not that easy to convince them.’

‘The death of any immortal emperor or demon emperor was always an earthshaking event in Motian Realm. If I want to do it, I need good timing, geographical convenience and help of other powers. I shall never do that out of impulsion. If demon emperors or immortal emperors could be killed easily, they would never have stood on the top of the pyramid of power in this world.’

‘It seems that I have to wait for the opportunity.’

After Bian Heng left there, Zhang Tie started to think about all the possible situations as he gradually recovered composure.

“If I’m already an immortal emperor...” Zhang Tie mumbled as he lowered his head and looked at his hands with a silent smile.

Only innocent kids would dream about reaching their heyday in a short period of time. If Zhang Tie wanted to touch the top of the pyramid of power, he needed to make hard efforts step by step. Thankfully, he had discovered another shortcut for fast improvement.

The shortcut lay in those shrimps.

Zhang Tie had already got the essence of Immortal Fist Skill. However, thos shrimps had a greater benefit for him, namely, they could provide him fruits of redemption.

Previously, Zhang Tie always wondered how to acquire a body with complete immortal strength. When he saw these shrimps, he finally confirmed that these shrimps were another helpers for him to acquire a body of complete immortal strength besides golden uangs.

‘I’ve already got enough strength, but I lack explosive force. As long as I get enough explosive force, the power of my kinetic strike and* Immortal Fist Skill* that I’ve just got could surge.’

‘As long as I’m powerful enough, it would be convenient for me to do whatever I want.’

‘Oh, I might not even know the name of the shrimp. I don’t know too much about that kind of shrimp.’

Zhang Tie then returned to his cultivation room and put on his clothes before sitting on the stone bed, legs crossed. After that, he ran his spiritual energy and activated a trouble-reappearance situation.

...

Only after a few minutes, Zhang Tie had already appeared in the largest library of Xuanyuan Hill.

Nobody was in the library. Walking in the library, Zhang Tie could only hear his clear footsteps from the mirror-like floor, which resonated across the library. It was the largest human library in Taixia Country. At this moment, it became Zhang Tie’s private library.

Only after a short while, Zhang Tie had come to a senior private reading room. After manipulating on the terminal of the difference engine for a few seconds, Zhang Tie immediately got over 100 relevant titles of articles.

After clicking those titles, Zhang Tie got passages about that kind of shrimp and their photos.

——Spike shrimp has a pair of pincers, one large, the other small. The larger one could reach half of its length. Being different than the smaller one, half of the larger one couldn’t move which contained a hollow cave; the other half of the larger one had a movable “piston” which could insert into the hollow cave. The larger pincer was muscular and strong. When the “piston” inserted in the hollow cave, the other half of the larger pincer would shoot out at a very high speed. Due to heavy frictions, a pressure lower than steam pressure formed near its larger pincer, in which state, the surrounding water would experience a bizarre physical change.

“Essentially, this kind of bubble comes into being due to frictions,” said Nancy Norton a biologist on coral reefs in Smith Association, “When the bubbles break up, the temperature surrounding those minor bubbles could reach almost 5,000 degree Celsius, which was almost as same as that on the surface of the sun. From a certain degree, spike shrimp is the most powerful animal which is closest to the sun...”——A bizarre organism in the ocean.

——Due to the terrifying explosive force of their muscles, they could released over 120 times more force than their muscle strength. The accelerated velocity of their punch could reach over 11,000 times more than that of the gravity of earth. They’re the most powerful boxer and preyer in the mother nature. All the humans should feel lucky that spike shrimps only live in the ocean; instead of climbing onto the ground. Additionally, as they’re small, they could be easily dealt with. If spike shrimps could be as large as sharps, when they go ashore, it would mean a doomsday catastrophe for humans.

——You might not understand the terror of spike shrimps when they punch out. Here’s a metaphor, if you could punch out like a spike shrimp, within 1/700 second, you could escape from the earth’s gravity and fly out of the atmospheric layer with the power of your fist——spike shrimp, the king of explosive force

...

After stayin the library for less than 20 minutes, Zhang Tie had already got what he needed.

Although Zhang Tie had already made a mental preparation, he was still shocked by the descriptions that spike shrimp could release over 100 times more force than his own muscle strength and could reach over 11,000 times more gravitional acceleration.

Zhang Tie couldn’t even imagine about the situation when he could release 100 times more force than his muscle strength in a split second. He really wondered about the power of his punch and the kinetic strike by then...

‘F*ck!’ What made Zhang Tie’s heart palpitate was that the contents about spike shrimp recorded in the library were all before the Catastrophe. However, these spike shrimps in Motian Realm had already mutated evidently due to rich reiki in Motian Realm as if their explosive force would be greater than that of ordinary spike shrimps like that between golden uangs and ordinary uangs.

‘It means that by setting free these spike shrimps in Motian Realm, I could get more powerful fruits of redemption.’

...

After leaving the trouble-reappearance situation, Zhang Tie looked up and sighed with emotions in the cultivation room. ‘Emperor NvWa City is really my paradise!’

...

On the second early morning, Zhang Tie had left Tideviewing Courtyard and Tigerback Mountain for the fish market wharf in the east of Tigerback Town.

When Zhang Tie arrived there, the fish market wharf was pretty boisterous. Fishers were discharging cargoes and discussing the abnormal situation on the sea level yesterday...
