Chapter 21: Red Blood Rainbow Carp

Feeling a sense of crisis in his heart, Su Ping left the Market and returned all the way to Linyue Lake.

Su Ping crouched at the fishing spot, waiting for the fishing spot to refresh.

This scene was witnessed by the people of Jinque City, who sighed one after another that this Inspector was a man who did great things.

Calm in the face of danger, unhurried when encountering major events! With the Ascension Meeting about to be convened, and he being the person in full charge, he actually still had the composure to fish and calm his mind.

Thinking about it, he must be contemplating how to lay out his plans to prevent any contingencies! That's right, none of the big shots in Jinque City believed that Su Ping truly liked fishing.

They were more inclined to believe that this was a quirk Inspector Su Ping had when he wanted to think quietly.

Just as some people would hide in a secret room to think, while others liked to contemplate in a bustling teahouse.

Because of this, these people felt that Su Ping was not at all like those frustrated predecessors.

Perhaps... could the weight of the gifts sent next time be a bit heavier? The Ji Family clan was even more convinced of their guess, and had already decided that if the Ji Family daughter was not selected by the Ascension Meeting, then she would be sent to Linyue Villa.

Even if it meant starting as a maid, it didn't matter! 【Ding-dong! Detected that the fishing spot count has refreshed】

【Current Fishing Level: Level 2 (220/500)】

【Current Fishing Spot Rating: First Tier Low Grade】

【Current fishing spot cumulative available fishing attempts: (60/100)】

【Available fish species: Small Green Fish, Big Green Fish, Green Spirit Fish, Red Blood Rainbow Carp】

Su Ping, who had waited at the fishing spot for several hours, suddenly opened his eyes, heard the notification sound, and saw the information stream flashing across the corner of his eye.

He revealed a faint smile: "Not bad, neither good nor bad, it refreshed 60 fishing attempts."

"Hmm... this time fishing, I should also use some metaphysics!"

Su Ping reached into his Storage Bag and took out a Bluetooth headset and a mobile phone that had been charged in advance.

As a crystallization of technology from the information age of Water Blue Star, the mobile phone naturally could not connect to the internet in the Cultivation World.

However, even if it couldn't connect to the internet, as a sophisticated electronic product, the mobile phone still possessed powerful application functions.

When Su Ping first came into contact with the mobile phone, he realized that by utilizing the mobile phone's scientific calculator, as well as the many mathematical tools invented by mathematicians.

It could be of great help to his study of the arrays of the Cultivation World.

It was just that, suffering from a lack of personal financial resources, he had no opportunity to learn arrays for the time being.

As for now, Su Ping used the music playback function of the mobile phone.

Soon, as the Bluetooth headset began to loop "Good Luck Comes," "Sunny and Cheerful Boy"...

Su Ping raised his fishing rod, then cast it back into Linyue Lake to start the Fishing Game.

Once, twice... the fifty-ninth time!

As Su Ping proceeded to the fifty-ninth mini-game, there were still only Small Green Fish and Big Green Fish.

Just as Su Ping decided that next time he would change to a different batch of songs as background music.

【Obtained Fishing Experience +1】

【Current Fishing Level: Level 2 (280/500)】

【Obtained Red Blood Rainbow Carp +1】

"Unh-huh?"

"Wait!"

"Red Blood Rainbow Carp?"

"Hiss! Metaphysics is truly useful; it actually produced a catch!"

This was the first time Su Ping had caught a regional specialty fish.

With his heart unable to stop a burst of wild joy, he hurriedly looked at the game warehouse.

【Red Blood Rainbow Carp, Quality: Rare, meat is chewy with few bones, edible, consuming can slightly improve physical talent, can be raised in Pot Heaven to increase Spirit Qi output!】

"Improve physical talent?"

Su Ping noticed this description; he would not underestimate it just because of the word "slightly" in front.

He had felt the benefits of Big Green Fish to his body these past few days; although slow, it was persistent and did not harm the body, far better than Blood Qi Pills.

Yet such an effect was not even qualified to be mentioned in the system description.

How the physical improvement of the Red Blood Rainbow Carp would actually be was worth looking forward to!

"The Fishing Mall exchanges are mainly based on the normal output of fishing spots; except for some souvenirs, generally there won't be any use for specialty fish."

"At least I don't have to worry that after using this Red Blood Rainbow Carp, I won't be able to exchange for the unique item in the Fishing Mall for a short time!" Su Ping thought, but he did not take the Red Blood Rainbow Carp out here at Linyue Lake.

After all, this was a rare catch; who knew if there would be any spiritual power fluctuations when taking it out.

If it were discovered by a high-level Cultivator, he wouldn't even be able to cry.

Su Ping had already planned that after returning to Water Blue Star and using up the fishing spot attempts there, he would enjoy this unexpected surprise there! "Besides the Red Blood Rainbow Carp, 50 Small Green Fish and 9 Big Green Fish were also obtained."

"Right, let me see how much this Red Blood Rainbow Carp is worth?"

"Tsk tsk tsk, one Red Blood Rainbow Carp is worth 200 Fishing Coins?"

"But I am not short of Fishing Coins right now, and coins can be accumulated slowly by relying on Small Green Fish and Big Green Fish, but I don't know when the second Red Blood Rainbow Carp will take the bait."

"Exchanging it for coins is the most losing choice!"

Su Ping made his decision in his heart, casually caught an unlucky big grass carp into his fish bag, and then slowly walked back to Linyue Villa.

Several hours later.

A flash of light passed through a certain mountain cave.

In the East King Temple on Water Blue Star, there was also one more extraordinary Cultivator.

Su Ping went to the fishing spot on Water Blue Star, located at the upstream Dong-qu-shui-ku, with familiar ease.

This fishing spot also refreshed 60 fishing attempts.

It was just that it seemed his luck had been used up in the Cultivation World.

Even if he continued to play "Good Luck Comes" and "Sunny Cheerful Boy."

Su Ping still only caught 50 Small Green Fish and 10 Big Green Fish.

However!

Su Ping checked his Fishing Experience.

【Current Fishing Level: Level 2 (340/500)】

"Two fishing spots, each can refresh 50 to 70 fishing attempts every time."

"Each fishing attempt grants one point of experience."

"In another two weeks, even with the minimum number of attempts, the Fishing Level can be upgraded to Level 3!"

"Every odd-numbered level unlocks more exchangeable items in the Fishing Mall."

"I remember that the Pot Heaven, as a disguised homestead system, is something players can obtain early on."

"When I upgrade to Level 3, I should be able to exchange for the Pot Heaven!"

Thinking about being able to obtain a Secret Realm.

Su Ping could not help but start imagining all sorts of possibilities.

At the same time, he silently hoped in his heart that if any accidents were to occur in the Cultivation World, it would be best if they happened after he had obtained the Pot Heaven.

With a portable Secret Realm in hand, he could immediately hide inside the Pot Heaven if he encountered an invincible foe.

Su Ping pondered his current region and status.

He should not encounter enemies who wouldn't even give him time to hide, right?

And if there were truly great chaos, with danger at every moment.

Then he could just return to Water Blue Star, rely on the Spirit Qi of the Pot Heaven to cultivate slowly, and lay low for a dozen years or so.

Su Ping did not believe that after laying low for so long, he still wouldn't be able to avoid this catastrophe! Even if Nascent Soul old monsters fought each other, after a dozen years or more, they should have decided the winner and established new rules, right?

He returned to East King Temple from the fishing spot.

It was already noon.

It was exactly the time for the young Daoist Zhou Xuan to prepare lunch.

Seeing Zhou Xuan, Su Ping felt a stir in his heart.

He took a Small Green Fish out of his storage and placed it into the fish basket.

Then, meeting Zhou Xuan's surprised gaze, Su Ping smiled and placed the fish basket on the table: "Kid, you're in for a treat today."

"Come and try the Spirit Fish I caught from the Secret Realm!"
