4: Traveling down
The blazing sun slowly stetted as the illuminating moon rose, creating a beautiful scene all throughout the forest and mountain ranges.
The same couldn't be said for Xiao Chen tho...
"Holy shit it's too dark in here" he became restless, he couldn't even cultivate properly with this in mind.
What if a skinny ass eel or shark slithered into his hole and bit him into pieces, he would definitely not accept something like that.
Of course one could say "just cultivate and don't worry about it"
But Xiao Chen himself knew how dangerous this world was, it was best to be extremely careful when making moves.

[Skills]: ([1]-Devil-Yin Claw-1)
In a few hours he had managed to raise his cultivation level, not only that, the grade 1 devil-yin claw became level 1 As well, probably because he had used the move earlier to create the cave.
"As long as I continuously spam this move it gets stronger, haha I'll really become a god" Xiao Chen thought, only he knew that was a pipe dream.
Using the skill once took a heavy toll on his body, especially since his body couldn't hold spiritual Qi yet.

After claiming himself down Xiao Chen was able to nervously cultivate as he closed his eyes, it took a while, but he decided to calm down, he definitely couldn't cultivate here a second time, it was was way too dangerous.

The next morning, the sun slowly rose once again, Bringing a source of light to the dark lake, Xiao Chen also slowly opened his eyes.
"Status" He thought with excitement, he was already lucky that he wasn't killed while cultivating.
[Status]
[Name]: Xiao Chen
[Cultivation]: 3rd Body-Refining Realm
[Bloodline]: Koi Fish
[Age]: 16/40
[Art]: Heavenly Dragon Nine-Transformations
[Skills]: ([1]-Devil-Yin Claw-1)
He was now in the 3rd stage of the body-refining realm, with each increase in stage he became stronger than before, for Xiao Chen it was bizarre, the amount of strength he felt flowing through his body amazed him, he was even scared of his own strength.
Back on earth he would definitely be deemed a witch or a superhuman, depending on the circumstances.
Swoosh!!
His body shot out of the small cave like a released arrow, breaking apart the rocks surrounding the entrance.
"I can even swim so much faster, escaping should be easy right? If I run into a big boss"
He continued swimming upwards, he wanted to take a look at the view outside.
As he expected, that same divine mountain and a neverending forest surrounded the lake, even so the lake itself was extremely huge, xiao chen could barely see the land off in the distance.
"Ahhh, what a beautiful day" xiao chen sighed deeply before becoming a but serious, he had to train his skill and gain some fighting experience, it was the best way to preserve his life, or else he didn't dare go to the bottom of this gigantic lake, who knew what the fuck was laying down there.
"These little fishes are so fragile, if I smacked one they would immediately die" xiao Chen watched as a small group of fish swam past him, they were all clearly normal fish.
"So I really have no choice but to go down there?" xiao then looked at the slightly dark pitch below him, the deeper he went the stronger the water pressure was and the deadlier the sea creatures.
Even though he decided to go down, xiao Chen wouldn't risk his life so easily, especially after being reborn in a world filled with opportunities.
He could imagine himself commanding a troop of 1 million sea-creatures and wrecking havoc everywhere he went, he could only smile at this thought.
He wanted to have some fun in this world after all.
"Welp, let's go, let's go" xiao Chen shouted mentally before rushing down with caution as he got deeper, although it was dark he could somehow easily see everything around him.
"Must be due to my cultuvation rising, perhaps my eyes and my senses rose sharply" xiao chen thought, this was the only explanation.
Plus he himself didn't know much about fish in general, he barely passed his oceanography class in 11th grade, who could blame him.
"Holy shit"
Xiao Chen shouted in his mind, the moment he went a few meters lower, he already felt a pair of bloodthirsty eyes on him.
Only a trail of red pupils could be seen flashing around in the distance.
Swoosh!!
As the figure shot over, the water also rushed along with it.
It looked exactly like a piranha, but with larger teeth!!! Larger everything.
Xiao Chen was scared shitless.
"So these are the m*therfuckers living down here"
This wasn't a time to be shocked, Xiao Chen swiftly evaded the creature, even though it missed it speedily turned around, glaring at Xiao Chen with viciousness.
"You F*cking turd, do you really think your stronger than me?" Xiao Chen shouted in his mind, he felt like this extremely ugly piranha wasn't even that strong to begin with.
Yet this idiot actually came here to fight him and court it's own death..
Being looked down by a weaker fish somehow hit Xiao chen's nerve, he was ready to rip this piece of shit apart.
