Chapter 897 Wuyao Spirit Rod Fish Shop Owner
"Spirit brew? It seems to be of good quality."
The middle-aged monk carefully examined the Jade Cleansing Spirit Dew with his spiritual sense. Although he did not notice any abnormalities, he did not drink it immediately out of caution.
"I'm going to have to sit here for a long time. Don't be greedy for words. I'll have a good taste of fellow Taoist wines when I get back."
He smiled and put the bottle of Jade Cleansing Spirit Dew into his storage bag.
"Okay, fishing for treasures is more important."
Lu Xuan nodded and said.
When the two met for the first time, he expressed understanding of the middle-aged monk's behavior. After all, in terms of caution, there were still few who were better than himself.
Although he didn't taste the Jade Cleansing Spiritual Dew, Lu Xuan's move still brought a considerable distance between the two of them.
Shi Zichen's attitude became obviously more enthusiastic.
“Let’s talk about fishing spots first. Choosing a suitable location is extremely important.”
"Opportunities and risks coexist in Qianbaozhen River. It is not safe for fishing monks. Monks often die in it for various reasons. In addition, the number and grade of treasures in different locations are quite different."
"However, the top fishing spots along the Qianbaozhen River are basically occupied by those powerful sects, so casual cultivators can only retreat and look for other places."
"In addition, the timing of fishing is also very important. The Qianbaozhen River will erupt with spiritual tides during certain special periods. At that time, the risk will increase, and various rare treasures will also explode."
"I once fished out a middle-grade magic weapon fragment from the Zhen River when a spiritual tide broke out."
Shi Zichen's face was bright, like a fisherman who wanted to circle the whole city three times after catching a big fish.
Lu Xuan complained secretly in his heart, nodded slightly, and kept what the other party said in mind.
"Also, fishing tools are also extremely important."
"The fishing rod must be forged from high-grade spiritual bamboo or high-grade spiritual ore, and the rod must be covered with many restrictions. Reinforcement is only the most basic requirement.
Sometimes, special restrictions must be placed on the spiritual fish, water beasts, or treasures you want to catch, so as to increase the certainty of successful shipment. "
"My obsidian spiritual pole is made of tens of thousands of kilograms of obsidian, mixed with various other spiritual minerals. It is of a grade as high as five. Although it has average ability against enemies, it has a powerful effect when fishing for treasures."
Shi Zichen shook the black fishing rod in his hand, with a bit of showoff in his tone.
"Spending a lot of money to build a fishing rod, he is worthy of being a legendary fisherman."
Lu Xuan secretly cursed in his heart, but a hint of just the right amount of envy flashed in his eyes.
"Five-grade fishing rod! Fellow Daoist Shi must have caught countless treasures from the Qianbaozhen River, right?"
"..."
The middle-aged monk looked choked.
"It's okay, it's okay."
He laughed haha.
"In addition to fishing rods, fishing lines and fishing nets for collecting treasures are all very important. Shi has been outside the Qianbaozhen River for many years, but he has seen many monks. Because the quality of fishing lines and fishing nets are average, they are not as good as those that were caught with great difficulty. The treasure was lost."
"Everyone beat their chests and beat their feet, feeling very upset."
The middle-aged monk sighed.
"It's really a pity."
Lu Xuan agreed.
Although he couldn't empathize with it, he could still imagine that scene.
After finally cultivating a high-level spiritual plant to maturity, I had great expectations for the unknown treasure. Just when I thought I would be able to reap a generous reward, the light group dissipated on its own before I even touched it...
It's suffocating just thinking about it.
"Besides that, I have to mention the bait for fishing for treasures."
"The most common ones are certain kinds of spiritual insects that are loved by spiritual fish and water animals. Certain natural and earthly treasures are also very attractive to certain water monsters, demons and the like."
"You can even use flesh, blood, souls, etc. to fish out some magical powers and secret techniques from the real river."
“Therefore, choosing the right bait is also very important.”
"Finally, there are strict requirements for fishing monks."
"The edge of the Qianbaozhen River is not considered safe. When fishing for treasures, you often need a strong body as support. Otherwise, it will be difficult to deal with those high-level spiritual fish and water beasts for a long time."
"After you catch them, you need great strength to surrender and suppress them. If you lose the treasure you caught because you can't compete with them, that would be a joke."
Shi Zichen shook his head and said.
"Of course, the monk's spirit must not be weak. When fishing, there are many strange beings in the True River that will confuse fishermen in turn. If they have ordinary spiritual consciousness and weak willpower, they will easily fall into the depths of the True River and be doomed."
The middle-aged monk said to Lu Xuan seriously.
"Thank you, Fellow Daoist Shi, for reminding me. Lu will keep it in mind."
Lu Xuan said solemnly grateful.
What Shi Zichen said, although it was just some basic common sense about fishing in the Qianbaozhen River and did not involve specific information about fishing for treasures, it was of great help to him as a newbie and saved him from taking many wrong paths.
"Speaking of which, if we cultivate a high-level spiritual bamboo, forge it into a high-quality fishing rod, bring it to the Qianbaozhen River, and sell it to these fishermen, it will probably fetch a sky-high price."
Lu Xuan thought to himself.
"Fishing treasures is simple to say, but there are many ways inside. If Fellow Lu Dao is interested, you can explore more."
The middle-aged monk said calmly.
"To be honest with fellow Taoist Shi, Lu really wants to try this interesting way of obtaining treasures."
Lu Xuan looked eager to try.
"Yes, fishing for treasures in the Qianbaozhen River is relatively safer than exploring the secret realm."
"There's just one thing. There are so many things you need to consider to catch your favorite treasure. If you're not satisfied with one of them, it will be difficult to catch it."
"It is common to not catch a satisfactory treasure for decades."
"However, remember not to indulge in it and neglect your practice."
"Shi Mou came here to fish because he had no hope of advancing to the Nascent Soul stage, to see if he could find a glimmer of hope from this mysterious Thousand Treasures River."
Shi Zichen said in a deep voice.
"Okay, Lu Mou will not neglect his practice because of this."
Lu Xuan said hurriedly. Anyway, with the light ball, it didn't make much difference to him whether he practiced or not, so he might as well enjoy the fun of fishing for treasures.
"I have a good place to go when I come to the Incomplete Cave Heaven in the future."
He thought secretly in his heart.
I originally thought that after entering the Incomplete Cave Heaven, it would be a bit lonely to be isolated from the world for a long time. Now with the existence of the Thousand Treasures River and the many fishermen on the riverside, he has a little more hope.
"Fellow Daoist Shi, where can I buy fishing rods, bait and other things? After listening to what fellow Daoist said, Lu Mou felt a little itchy."
Lu Xuan said with a smile.
"Eight hundred miles down here, there is a small shop with a lot of fishing-related treasures, including a variety of fishing rods and baits for you to choose from."
"Although the shop is small, the owner is not ordinary. He has opened a shop there many years ago. He has the strength of the Yuanying realm. People call him the fish shop owner."
"The fish shop owner has a strange and lonely temperament, but it's not bad for anglers like us. Daoist Lu, don't worry about it."
"Okay, after buying all the fishing gear, Lu will come to see Daoist Shi, how about it?"
Lu Xuan asked.
"Okay, just to relieve boredom."
Shi Zichen nodded and said.
