17: The stream is flowing backwards?!

Absorb the moonlight!

As soon as this thought appeared, a strong sense of anticipation inexplicably rose in Su Can's heart.

He had already personally experienced the power of sunlight.

Just by absorbing a little of its energy, he had undergone the incredible experience of cleansing his marrow and bones.

His body had become incredibly strong as a result, capable of killing a cow with his bare hands.

In this situation, if he were to absorb moonlight as well, he truly didn't know what miraculous sparks might fly.

So he really wanted to know!

"Sunlight, moonlight, if described in novels, or in Taoist teachings, could be called the Essence of Sun and Moon!"

Su Can's gaze was a little strange.

"Could it be that in the end, by absorbing the Essence of Sun and Moon, just like in novels, I'll accidentally cultivate to become an immortal?"

Thinking of this, Su Can felt a faint excitement in his heart.

If he could truly become an immortal and achieve eternal life, that would be something money couldn't measure.

"I'll get something to eat first, then sit and wait for the moon to fully appear!"

Su Can had already made up his mind.

He first looked around, preparing to find something on the spot to fill his stomach.

After all, he had been trekking in the mountains for so long, and he wasn't made of steel; he was already hungry.

But when he was about to put his plan into action, he realized that he hadn't brought anything.

No pots, bowls, ladles, or even salt and seasonings.

This time he entered the mountain, he only brought an extra urea bag and a small hoe.

All that was left was a lighter and half a pack of cigarettes.

"Seriously!"

Su Can shook his head and sighed speechlessly.

However, as he bent down to wash his hands in the stream, he suddenly recalled what had happened that morning in the park lake.

At that time, he controlled the stored golden light energy within him to emerge, and in just a moment, it attracted a large number of ornamental fish from the lake.

"Oh, right, how could I forget about that!"

Su Can's eyes instantly lit up.

The golden light energy dissolved within his body had a fatal attraction to all living things.

This stream, with its long and winding course connected to the underground water veins deep in the mountains, must have abundant aquatic life.

As long as he released the golden light energy, he might be able to attract many fish along the stream.

Then, wouldn't it be wonderful to catch a few fish and roast them?

Thinking this, Su Can extended his palm into the stream, and with a slight thought, a wisp of golden light energy emerged, coiling and twisting around his fingertips like a living thing.

Almost the instant Su Can put his hand into the stream and released the golden light energy, all the fish, big and small, swimming upstream or downstream, suddenly seemed to freeze, stopping their movements.

But the next second, as if summoned and stimulated by something, they all turned around collectively and surged madly towards Su Can's location.

Su Can was still fiddling with his fingers, and after waiting for about two or three minutes, he found no movement at all, which made him a little suspicious.

"Is the stream too far away to sense? Unable to attract fish?"

Su Can became a little less confident.

Just as he was considering whether to change his position, he suddenly heard splashing sounds from a distance.

And these splashing sounds were initially faint and small, but they quickly became chaotic, noisy, and louder!

"What's going on?!"

As the commotion grew louder, Su Can also became alarmed.

He strained his neck and looked down the stream, suddenly making the strange discovery that the stream water seemed to be flowing backward!

The stream water flowing backward?!

Su Can was startled and quickly rubbed his eyes to look again.

As a result, with this look, he couldn't help but gasp sharply.

What the hell!

The stream water was actually flowing backward!

In these incredibly quiet mountains, encountering such a bizarre and unnatural phenomenon suddenly, even though Su Can was now skilled and courageous, he couldn't help but feel a chill down his spine.

In just an instant, goosebumps covered his entire body.

Even his scalp tingled, and his hair seemed to crackle faintly, as if it was about to stand on end!

"What the hell is going on here?"

Su Can's palms were sweating from tension, and he couldn't help but swallow.

But what gave him even more goosebumps was yet to come!

Almost the very next second, he heard the sound of rushing water behind him!

It was accompanied by the chaotic sounds of a large amount of water being struck.

Su Can shivered and quickly turned his head, seeing a turbulent current surging down from the upstream of the stream.

One flowing with the current, one against it, like two great armies of floods about to clash, it sent shivers down Su Can's spine.

Who wouldn't be terrified seeing such a bizarre sight in the mountains?

"Damn it!"

Su Can even felt a chill down his back.

But just then, in the countercurrent of the downstream, there was a sudden splash, and a large spray of water shot up.

As the water fell, Su Can clearly saw a large, completely red carp twisting its body forcefully in mid-air, leaping upstream.

"Huh?!"

Seeing this, Su Can was utterly stunned.
