Chapter 131: Chapter 123: Water Monster on Land

Although the giant creature didn’t fully emerge from the water, the carp weighing several pounds seemed insignificant in front of it. Just the sight of the densely packed teeth inside its massive mouth was enough to make one feel dizzy.

Yue’er was even somewhat reluctant to look. After setting her phone at a good angle, she directly ran off to fish elsewhere.

The scene also sparked more intense discussions among the viewers in the live-streaming room.

Fishing live streamers are common, but it was the first time they had seen a streamer battling with a giant creature several meters long in the water.

"I’ve just realized that fishing can also be a life-threatening sport."

"Can someone explain what this water monster is? It doesn’t look like a fish."

"At this point, I’m more curious—is the streamer also a monster? He managed to stabilize such a big creature at the shore. Can you believe it?"

The viewers in the live-streaming room were all talking at once, but Lin Yang had no time to focus on anything else as he was quite distressed.

Fortunately, he was using the best equipment this time, and with the line protection buff, it barely didn’t snap, but even so, he had to release several tens of meters of line the moment the giant creature bit the hook.

By then, the giant creature had already swam to the deep part of the lake and was still pulling on the line.

Lin Yang lifted the rod and turned the reel a couple of times, which squeaked under the strain.

After releasing several more tens of meters of line, the giant creature in the water finally stopped fleeing and began to stabilize.

But he wasn’t about to give it any respite. Like before, since the creature had been hooked, he absolutely couldn’t allow it too much time to breathe; he needed to exhaust its strength quickly to have a chance of pulling it to the shore.

He immediately began lifting the rod and reeling in continuously.

The hook on the line was specially designed for giant creatures, and just the tip of the hook was three to four centimeters long. One could imagine the consequences of Lin Yang forcefully lifting the rod and reeling in.

The next second,

Whoosh—

The water monster flinched in pain and quickly exerted its strength. Lin Yang’s rod was bent again, and he had to release more than ten meters of line.

At this moment, Lin Yang’s thought was simple: he could let out the line, but it couldn’t rest.

Both sides began what turned into a prolonged tug-of-war.

Because of the battle between Lin Yang and the water monster, the live stream’s popularity began to rise continuously, attracting new viewers every minute.

The number of people watching online had already exceeded ten thousand and continued to increase.

The viewers’ comments varied; some focused on the water monster, every burst of strength that brought it above the water’s surface drew exclamations.

From the species of the giant creature to its weight and length, there was much speculation and discussion among the viewers.

Many viewers also focused on Lin Yang, marveling at his strength and slick fishing skills, and even the rod he was using prompted a flurry of discussion.

While engaged in the tug-of-war, Lin Yang also made sure to explain how to exert force and control a catch of this size.

This led to a flurry of comments scrolling across the screen.

"I must say, streamer, you really think too highly of us."

"I’ve learned the technique, got the rod ready, but where do we find such giant creatures?"

"Not to sound off, but Master Lin’s upper body strength is really powerful. The average fisher simply wouldn’t have this strength."

For easier control of the fish, Lin Yang had already taken off his light jacket, only wearing a fairly loose T-shirt.

As he exerted his strength, the winding bulging muscles, the sharp and distinct lines, every part radiated a strong sense of power.

While controlling the fishing rod in his hand and explaining the techniques of exerting force to the viewers, the phone set up beside him occasionally captured the giant fish breaking the water’s surface.

In this way, unwittingly, the man and fish had been battling for nearly an hour and a half. At this point, the giant fish in the water finally seemed to be running out of strength.

At this moment,

With only the last ten-plus meters of his two-hundred-meter line left, if the giant creature in the water insisted on pulling on the line for another ten or so minutes, he really would have had to give it his all and start yanking it in force.

But fortunately, at this time, the creature did not persist to the very end.

Privy to the experience from last time, Lin Yang’s method of alternating between give and take had become even more adept.

In just about ten minutes, the giant creature had been pulled to the shore. At this moment, it had fully revealed its true appearance.

Previously in the water, even when it surfaced, one could only roughly see the back of the water monster, far less clear than now as it was pulled onto the shallow bank.

Now that the creature was near the shore, with Lin Yang’s tall figure standing beside it, the stark contrast between the man and the fish was even more striking visually.

Even standing at nearly 1.8 meters tall, Lin Yang seemed somewhat dwarfed in front of this bizarre giant.

"Six-bearded Catfish!"

With half of its body already out of the water and resting on the muddy bank, upon clearly seeing its true appearance, Lin Yang also learned what type of fish it was.

"Wow, such a big fish."

Yue’er, seeing the giant catfish coming ashore, immediately threw her fishing rod aside and ran
