As for Qin Jie's main body, he had already activated Shadow of Concealment and was accelerating.
At this moment, due to continuous stimulation, Magikarp's body movements began to increase; if he dallied any longer, Magikarp might awaken.
Time was short and the task was heavy, so Qin Jie took big strides, rushing toward the Fish King's heart.
Behind him were swarms of Magikarp Derivatives' young, which, upon realizing they had been tricked, began to surge towards Qin Jie.
"Thump! Thump! Thump!"
The sound of the heart beating was like thunder, and Magikarp's heart had already appeared before Qin Jie; without hesitation, Qin Jie directly slashed Magikarp's heart with his Sword.
Pfft!
The Fish King's heart was directly cut with a huge wound by this Sword, like an open door, with a large amount of blood flowing out; for a time, all seven sucking mouths on the butcher's coat opened.
They were going to feed.
The Fish King's powerful muscles throbbed wildly, attempting to re-seal the wound, but due to the devouring abyss, this wound would never heal permanently.
This Sword completely awakened Magikarp; the sleeping Magikarp, sensing its impending demise, immediately fell into a frenzy.
With a wail, Qin Jie felt his eardrums burst in an instant, and two gushes of fresh blood flowed from his ears.
His vision also blurred, and his health plummeted with the Fish King's cries, but Qin Jie gripped the devouring abyss in his hand even tighter.
It had come to this point; retreating was no longer an option, so Qin Jie directly grabbed a Divine Devourer and put it into his mouth, his health instantly recovering to full, and a surge of new power instantly coursed through his body.
Then, gripping the devouring abyss, the entire Sword blade pierced into Magikarp's heart, leaving only the hilt exposed, and then Qin Jie suddenly exerted force and slashed fiercely.
Magikarp's enormous heart was instantly sliced open; although the cut wound healed in an instant, the heart had already lost its ability to beat.
At this moment, Magikarp's heart was completely killed by Qin Jie.
It could be seen that Magikarp's health immediately plummeted, and besides Magikarp's wails, there was also a woman's voice.
"Who? Who wants to eradicate me? Who is here?"
"Damned Reincarnation Paradise, isn't it enough that I've fallen to this state? Did I want to destroy this world?"
Of course, Qin Jie couldn't hear this voice; all he heard now was a buzzing sound, and the Fish King's dying wail spread like a depth charge; Qin Jie was essentially taking full damage at this moment.
At this moment, the Fish King's heart had stopped beating, and its health was plummeting; this decline in health was irreversible, even if the Fish King possessed terrifying regeneration abilities, but with its heart destroyed, it was losing not only health but also its maximum health; unless its heart was repaired, the Fish King was doomed to die.
But the Fish King's heart was severed by the devouring abyss, so the Fish King's death was already a foregone conclusion.
Thunder and lightning roared over the Source Water, and all the Magikarp Derivatives at this moment fell into endless chaos and madness; they began to attack all visible creatures around them.
Magikarp was dead, and all these Derivatives went mad, even biting each other.
Even the Fountainhead Palace Nobles and warriors, who were originally forbidden to be attacked by the Fish King, also became targets of these Magikarp Derivatives.
These fish, as the Source Water rose, entered every corner of Fountainhead Palace, unleashing a bloody massacre.
Killed Overlord-level creature, Magikarp (Deformed).
Obtained 23.1% World Source.
Obtained Overlord Treasure Chest X1.
Detected the extinction of the Magikarp clan; Hunter's contribution was 73.9%.
Obtained 15% World Source reward.
--- After an unknown period, the Fish King finally stopped struggling, and its colossal body ultimately fell to the bottom of the water.
At this moment, Fountainhead Palace was eerily silent; with the Fish King's death, the berserk Magikarp Derivatives also died, and before their deaths, these Magikarp Derivatives slaughtered most of the people in Fountainhead Palace.
The storm had ceased; at this moment, the only sound in Fountainhead Palace was the roar of the Dragon in the distance.
"Plop!"
There was a splash from the water; with the help of Sword Shadow, Qin Jie laboriously climbed out of the water, then used one arm to clamber onto the roof of a building.
Most of Fountainhead Palace was submerged at this time, with only a small portion of buildings located on the back mountain and the roofs of some tall buildings exposed above the water.
Qin Jie's left arm was half-severed, and his hearing was severely damaged; if not for Sword Shadow's help, he might not even have been able to swim out of the water.
Of course, having paid such a heavy price, Qin Jie's gains were naturally not small.
Hidden Quest: The End of Resentment has been completed.
Obtained soul box filled with Soul X1.
Side Quest: Death of the Fish King has been completed.
Obtained 20,000 paradise coins, 9 attribute points, soul crystal (small) X6.
He adjusted his position on the rooftop, then took out the soul box.
This item was a temporary tool given by Reincarnation Paradise, but Reincarnation Paradise granted Qin Jie a convenience; it would only reclaim the soul box after he returned to Reincarnation Paradise.
At this moment, the soul box was emitting a faint glow, having captured Calamity A's Soul inside.
Oh, perhaps at this moment, she should be called Xing Li.

--- The soul box flickered with light, and a woman with an exquisite face slowly appeared before Qin Jie; at this moment, upon seeing Qin Jie, a look of mockery flashed in her eyes.
"Heh, another dog of Reincarnation Paradise."
Qin Jie was expressionless.
"Slap yourself twice, hard."
The soul box holder had absolute control over the Soul, so Xing Li, without hesitation, slapped herself twice.
Being struck as a Soul body seemed to have unique hit effects; at least Xing Li's face didn't swell, but it added a touch of anger to her expression.
"You!"
"Swallow your dissatisfaction; if you're ever unhappy, just slap yourself twice."
Qin Jie held the soul box in one hand and ordered faintly.
In reality, his hearing was extremely poor at this moment, but based on the other party's expression and movements, Qin Jie guessed that the other party had probably said some insulting words.
With a few slaps, Xing Li finally realized her position.
Clearly, she had fallen into a death trap and had no way out.
