The last two significant auction items were a three-level skill manual and a four-level magical tool, both of which were of little interest to Lu Xuan. He watched coldly as the other cultivators scrambled and competed for them.
After the auction ended, He paid 3800 spirit stones, acquired the Rock-shell Turtle eggs and Profound Origin Heavy Water from the Aurora Business Association, and left with Song Yun.
“Friend Lu, please wait.”
Suddenly, a familiar voice sounded from behind. He turned around to see that the young and lethargic cultivator from the Departure Mountain Sect was standing not far away, with a fierce-looking woman cultivator by his side. Friend Lu, why not seize the day and join us for some sea fishing?”
Shi Zhong invited him warmly.
Lu Xuan couldn’t help but rub his forehead.
Upon leaving the auction, he had envisioned several scenarios, such as the Aurora Business Association, who were behind the auction, going rogue, or Ning Deshan setting a trap somewhere, or other cultivators having ulterior motives to rob the Profound Origin Heavy Water…
But he never imagined that Shi Zhong would invite him to the Boundless Sea to fish for sea beasts.
He pondered in his heart.
Both he, Shi Zhong, and the stern-looking female cultivator by his side were cultivators stationed here by a Great Sect, and they have no conflicts of interest, on some level, they also stood on the same front.
Third-grade sea beasts rarely appear near the Boundless Sea; he got several Fourth Grade Sword Symbols such as the Starfall Sword Charm, and various devices and treasures by his side. He was confident to handle simultaneous attacks from the two of them.
“Fine, I’ll accompany Friend Shi over there for a bit.”
Lu Xuan agreed straightforwardly; he was quite curious about the different types of sea beasts and spirit plants in the Boundless Sea.
He instructed Song Yun.
I am going fishing for sea fish and demon beasts with Shi Zhong of the Departure Mountain Sect. You should return to Void Nether Island alone. Be careful on the way.”
“Yes, Senior Lu!”
Song Yun replied respectfully.
He and the fierce-looking female cultivator stepped onto Shi Zhong’s three- level Flying Boat Magical Tool.
Like an arrow leaving the string, the Flying Boat darted towards its destination.
Along the way, he learned from Shi Zhong that the female cultivator’s name was Zhou Bing Yu, who also came from a cultivation sect.
A moment later, the Flying Boat stopped on a remote island.
“We have arrived, Friend Lu.”
“Since I arrived at the Boundless Sea, I have been searching around the nearby islands and finally found such a perfect small island.”
This island is called Changfeng Island, the sea creatures and fish around here are numerous and varied, and even includes extraordinary Spiritual Fish like Dragon Carps. It’s a natural fishing spot.”
The young cultivator from the Departure Mountain Sect suddenly looked a lot more serious, and his eyes were filled with confidence.
“Friend Shi seems to be quite at leisure.”
Lu Xuan looked around the small island and simply evaluated.
“No choice, being stationed on such a cold island really bored me to death, I need to find something to do.”
Whether it’s spiritual energy, resources or same-level cultivators, everything here is vastly different from what it’s like in the sect. Occasionally when I meet a few cultivators from small families or Loose Cultivators, we have nothing in common, pretending to be righteous, I don’t want to talk to them more.” Shi Zhong pursed his lips, his words showing the unique pride and superiority of cultivators from the Upper Sect.
But Lu Xuan did not agree. He had been keeping to himself and hadn’t had the chance to meet other cultivators from the islands.
“Friend Lu, let me showyou my treasures.”
Shi Zhong, who had a similar background and age as Lu Xuan, had a significant appreciation for him. He retrieved more than a dozen fishing rods from his storage bag.
These fishing rods are all crafted from Spirit Wood, combining both hardness and toughness, suitable for sea fishes and sea beasts of different ranks and kinds.”
“Especially this one, that is forged from third-grade Spirit Wood, it can even handle a four-level sea beast pulling it.”
Shi Zhong was giving Lu Xuan a detailed introduction to the more than ten fishing rods floating halfway in the air.
Lu Xuan looked around, unexpectedly finding a fishing rod crafted from an extremely familiar raw material, which he once planted a long time ago. It was the second-grade Copper Bone Bamboo.
“Not only the fishing rods, these fishing lines are also extraordinary. They are refined from silks produced by various kinds of spiders and demon worms.” “This fishing hne formed by the solidification of the third-grade Blood Jade Spider Silk can even withstand the force of ten-thousand jin without being
Shi Zhong pointed to a faintly red silk that was barely visible and said.
Also, these fishing hooks are all forged from various high-quality iron spirit ores, and specially carved with runes that can hide their aura.” “Once put into the deep sea, the runes will significantly reduce the presence of the hook, making it easier to catch the sea fishes and sea beasts.” “Those beasts are still demon beasts after all, possessing certain Spiritual Intelligence. If not handled like this, they would easily detect the trap.” “There are also these baits…”
Shi Zhong explained non-stop to Lu Xuan.
As for Zhou Bingyu, who was used to his habit, she quietly found a secluded corner and started to meditate.
Seeing the dazzling array of fishing tools in front of him, a phrase couldn’t help floating in Lu Xuan’s mind:
“There are too many tools for my poor knowledge.”
He casually picked up a fishing rod made of Copper Bone Bamboo, leapt up, and jumped onto a high building on the island.
For the sake of having a better fishing spot, Shi Zhong even it’s ordered his subordinates to build high wooden towers in various parts of the island.
‘I’m sorry. Friend Lu, this place won’t do!”
“This wooden tower is a golden position where I usually sit. Friend Lu, please find another place.”
Shi Zhong, who was preparing the bait, shouted loudly.
Lu Xuan didn’t care, he took the fishing rod and moved like a streak of light, stopping at a high wooden tower far away within a few breaths.
“What a good movement!”
The fierce female cultivator below couldn’t help but exclaim when she saw this scene.
Although Lu Xuan was an Inner Sect Disciple of Sky Sword Sect, after learning about his status as a Spirit Plant Master, Zhou Bingyu couldn’t help looking down on him a bit.
However, seeing Lu Xuan’s splendid movement skill, that sense of contempt vanished.
Lu Xuan sat on a dark yellow wooden chair, put down the Copper Bone Bamboo fishing rod, and took out the bait.
It was obvious that Shi Zhong had put a lot of effort into cultivating the bait. The White Jade Box was divided into several areas, each filled with fishing bait made from various demon beast’s flesh and blood, various Spirit Plant flowers and fruits. Lu Xuan even saw several kinds of live Strange Worms, kept in check by runes, stayed quietly in their designated areas.
He chose a ball made from the flesh of several kinds of demon beasts, hooked it up deeply with the fishing hook, and with a thought, the Copper Bone Bamboo fishing rod quickly extended, and the bait fell into the surging sea.
“If I catch a sea fish, I would be rewarded with a White Light Group, that would be great.”
While observing the movement of the bait through his Spiritual Sense, Lu Xuan couldn’t help thinking to himself.
“In that way, I could completely become the biggest fisherman in the Cultivation World.”
“Huh? Is there a catch already? Could this be the legendary newbie gift pack?” Just as he was daydreaming, he suddenly noticed slight movements from the bait in the deep sea, and upon sensing it with his Spiritual Sense, he found that a first-grade sea fish was ceaselessly gnawing at the bait on the hook.
