Chapter 285: Fishing on the Lunar Surface, a Tier-3 Fishing Spot!

~15 min read 2,845 words

Water Blue Star, Eastern Ancient Kingdom.

Inside a residential apartment building of a fairly decent grade.

A lively young girl was telling her family some good news at the dining table with great excitement:

"Mom! I've been accepted!"

"The leader even said my talent is very good and worth cultivating; I can become a manager once the internship ends!"

The young girl is named Su Lele, and she just graduated from university this year.

Her parents also share the surname Su, though both are getting on in years.

Su Mu has already reached retirement age, and Su Fu will also be retiring in a year or two.

For this family who had a daughter late in life, their days should have been lived quite frugally.

Yet unexpectedly, a year ago, the lottery ticket Su Mu bought actually hit the first prize.

This greatly eased their financial difficulties and allowed them to move into this better residential area.

And then, their luck seemed to start turning around.

Whether it was Su Mu or Su Fu, both were tested as having Grade B aptitude during the screening organized by their respective workplaces.

They were not clear on what this represented.

They only knew that after that day, all their various benefits were fully provided and doubled.

And strangely enough, their previous chronic illnesses and various physical discomforts felt much better after waking up from a sleep.

By now, besides still being able to tell they are elderly from their appearance, their bodies themselves are healthier than many young people!

Today, their Su Family received another piece of happy news.

It was that their daughter had successfully found a job.

And this job happens to be the most sought-after cooperative project in the eyes of ordinary people in society today!

Even a three-year-old child now knows that cooperative projects are projects jointly promoted by the authorities and the transcendent.

Being able to work inside is not only top-tier in terms of benefits and treatment, but staying inside is already a huge profit in itself.

Many middle-aged and elderly people even want to pay money to get in and work, just because they believe that living in an environment with Spirit Qi can strengthen the body and prolong life...

It is just a pity that while these cooperative projects do not care about how the low-to-medium quality output is distributed, they have a hard standard of aptitude assessment for job placement.

If one fails the assessment, no matter how strong their background is, they cannot enter these cooperative projects for employment.

As for faking it... at the beginning, it was not as if there weren't bold people who had thought about it.

It was just that as the details of the cooperative projects were dug deeper, even the boldest ones shook their heads after figuring things out.

It is true that many of the processes in the projects have a relatively high degree of automation.

But everything involving manual labor requires employees to have a certain aptitude and requires Spirit Qi to enter the body to activate those runes that have scientists nearly losing all their hair, yet still unable to figure out the situation.

In other words, even if someone faked their way through all the written problems, in the end, it would still require the imposter to contain a trace of Dharma Power within their body.

This is equivalent to saying that faking it would be exposed within a short time 100% of the time... naturally, this cut off the thoughts of those bold people.

They were only bold and had wild ways, not death-wish enthusiasts.

The three members of the Su Family were immersed in the joyful atmosphere of their daughter soaring to success.

Not long after, Su Mu received a call first.

The person on the phone was none other than the big leader of the big leader whom Su Mu had only met once.

Upon hearing the other party identify themselves, Su Mu became a bit flustered.

And after hearing the news, Su Mu was completely stunned.

Waiting until her daughter and Su Fu asked curiously multiple times.

Su Mu then said with some disbelief:

"I just received a call from the big leader at the factory."

"He said the blood sample I provided earlier passed the test and even received a very high evaluation."

"The new crop-related cooperative project over in Xidu hopes I can go report for duty."

Speaking of this, Su Mu looked at Su Fu, whose mouth was wide open and couldn't close, and gave a wry smile as she said:

"They said I can bring family members; there are special family quarters."

"Cough, cough, cough."

Su Fu admitted that he was tempted at that moment and began to seriously consider the option of retiring early to be a good househusband.

However, the very next second, Su Fu's phone also rang.

Because of Su Mu, this time Su Fu's phone immediately attracted their gaze.

Su Fu looked at the phone and, after discovering it really was his unit's number, hurriedly answered it.

Then, Su Fu's expression also became strange.

He had actually passed the test as well and was similarly recommended to the new cooperative project in Xidu.

In order to fulfill the responsibility of keeping secrets, the couple looked at their daughter and left her alone at the dining table.

The two of them went into the bedroom together to confirm the information.

Then they discovered that they were indeed going to the same place!

And it didn't keep them waiting long.

Another call came in.

This time, it was their direct supervisor.

The details told were also becoming more numerous.

And they were informed that the project department over there had also learned of their special nature.

They would pull strings to make arrangements.

Then came the flattery and envy directed at the Su Family.

Although, with the extraordinary entering the world, the number of extraordinary individuals on Water Blue Star is increasing.

There are also thousands who have the talent to enter the cooperative projects to provide services.

Yet for a family of three to all possess talent, while not unheard of across the entire Water Blue Star, is quite rare.

Some families might have two or three people selected.

But those families have twenty or thirty, or even over a hundred members.

Comparing them is unfair no matter how you look at it.

Fortunately, although the Su Family of three all have talent.

Judging by current data, according to the extraordinary side's data, they only have Lower Grade Spiritual Root.

They cannot compare to those key personnel under observation, let alone those geniuses who have been scouted by extraordinary forces and have now become Sword Envoys, Outer Sect Disciples, or even Inner Sect Disciples.

This only makes the average person feel envy, jealousy, and hatred.

It does not go so far as to make people think the Su Family has some great secret.

At most, people say the Su Family has good genes, and then inquire to see if there is a chance for marriage, which is the limit.

The Su Family of three, however, does not know.

Only their daughter truly has a natural Lower Grade Spiritual Root quality.

Su Fu and Su Mu are both just plain, ordinary mortals.

But, who let them have a son who obtained a great opportunity?

After Su Ping observed them and discovered that deep down, his family members were just ordinary people who enjoyed life.

He did not directly make them ascend to the heavens, but instead quietly ensured they were well-fed and clothed.

Then, after he had Demon Cores.

Su Ping took advantage of a dark and windy night to install a Spirit Tool formed from a sealed Demon Core for his parents.

This Spirit Tool changed his parents' aptitude and specifically stabilized it within the range of an average Lower Grade Spiritual Root.

Besides this effect, the Spirit Tool would slowly improve his parents' bodies, ensuring that while Su Ping was cultivating with all his might, his parents would not be plagued by any difficult illnesses, and could provide protection if a major crisis occurred.

Then he gave his younger sister, whom he had not met before crossing over, a protective Spirit Tool that would only take effect in a life-or-death crisis.

Su Ping then left the Su Family.

Then, as the number of cooperative projects increased, the demand for those with talent grew.

People like the Su parents with Lower Grade Spiritual Roots suddenly became highly sought after.

Being selected and recommended again would happen naturally, and Su Ping would not need to push it further.

And after entering the cooperative projects.

The Su Family's life would naturally get better and better!

And if any of them grew tired of living in peaceful days and suddenly wanted to work hard and accomplish great things.

With their Lower Grade Spiritual Root aptitude, as long as they were willing to work hard, they would naturally have plenty of opportunities in the Spirit Qi environment of the cooperative projects.

Su Ping would not mind providing them with a little convenience when the time came.

Late at night, Su Ping, having withdrawn his Divine Sense from the residential complex, turned and went to various Fishing Spots on Water Blue Star to begin this week's Fishing.

Although he was already at the Golden Core Late Stage after obtaining the South Dipper Heavenly Secret Scripture, he was only one step away from the Nascent Soul after cultivating to perfection.

Su Ping understood that he still had to keep Fishing.

Even if he did not lack the channel for Fishing Coins, various types of fish still had to be accumulated.

In fact, ever since he successfully challenged the difficult Abyss, all the fish Su Ping caught had been stockpiled.

It was just a pity that the First Tier Fishing Spot no longer provided experience.

Relying only on the Second-tier Fishing Spot, he could only slowly grind to level up.

Su Ping finished the last Fishing Spot without obtaining any specialty catch.

However, he did get as many as eight Flowing Pattern Golden Dragon Fish, and he also caught two Green Spirit Fish.

Su Ping looked at his Fishing level:

【Current Fishing Level: 5 (4720/5000)】

"Finally, I'm about to level up."

"It's just that only odd-numbered Fishing levels have new products."

"But the Fishing Compass can be used now."

"Should this Fishing Compass be used in the Cultivation World or on Water Blue Star?"

Su Ping's Fishing Compass could be used again.

It was just that he was somewhat conflicted about where to use it.

The benefit of Water Blue Star is safety.

It is just that the Fishing Spots on Water Blue Star are likely dominated by First and Second Tier Fishing Spots.

If he wanted higher-level Fishing Spots, the Cultivation World actually offered better chances.

But the variables in the Cultivation World were too great, and without Snow Dragon Fish, Su Ping could not migrate the Fishing Spot into the Pot Heaven.

If he happened to encounter a Third Tier Fishing Spot... and it ended up being bitten away by an Evil God.

Wouldn't he be so heartbroken he couldn't eat for three days and three nights?

"Sigh!"

Su Ping fell into a blissful dilemma, and after sighing.

He suddenly looked up, blowing in the late-night breeze, and saw the golden moon in the sky.

The moon was very round tonight.

Through an astronomical telescope, one could even see patches of man-made structures appearing on the Moon Surface.

"On the Moon, there are also Earth Veins!"

"So, is there a possibility that Fishing Spots also exist on the Moon Surface?"

"If there is a possibility of Fishing Spots being destroyed, normally, the lower-level the Fishing Spot, the more likely it is to be destroyed."

"What remains... should be the high-level ones, right?"

"And if there are no Fishing Spots on the Moon, I actually won't lose anything; I'll just consider it as having used the Fishing Compass once on Water Blue Star."

Thinking of this.

Su Ping, in whose heart the impulse to land on the Moon had surged.

Simply let his heart stir.

Suddenly!

East Sea Dragon Lord Aoli appeared beneath his feet.

A black divine dragon several thousand meters long.

Even in the dead of night, its appearance still caused a commotion in the city below.

Countless people were woken up, startled, and then stuck their heads out of windows or ran onto the streets to look at the sky.

"Look! There's a divine dragon in the sky!"

"That's the Dragon Lord! The Dragon Lord has manifested!"

People on the streets made chaotic noises and took out their mobile phones to start filming.

Although the extraordinary had already appeared on Water Blue Star from time to time,

related new material was still the highest-traffic trending topic.

Once posted and confirmed as new material, it would immediately be pushed to the trending list and watched by countless people.

Su Ping was already indifferent to these behaviors.

He stepped onto the top of Aoli's head.

In the blink of an eye, he rode the dragon up and headed straight for the Moon Surface.

After East Sea Dragon Lord Aoli flew to an altitude of ten thousand meters, he could not help but let out a dragon roar in his agitated state.

The clouds were shaken apart, allowing more people to see with their naked eyes this scene of riding a dragon to fly to the Moon.

Major observatories also observed this anomaly.

Ever since there were man-made structures on the Moon Surface, observatories everywhere had been watching almost non-stop at night.

Naturally, they did not miss this scene.

Watching the divine dragon's winding body break free from the gravitational pull of Water Blue Star and rush out of the atmosphere at a speed much faster than a spaceship.

And then cross the nearly 400,000-kilometer distance between Water Blue Star and the Moon.

Successfully arriving at the Moon Base.

Su Ping noticed that the current Moon Base.

Besides the factories of the Golden Core Spirit Beasts.

Also had additional man-made structures from Water Blue Star factions.

That was the Water Blue Star lunar exploration cooperation project, with the Eastern Ancient Kingdom as the main party and several other countries as auxiliaries.

Relying on a Golden Core Spirit Beast to help clear the ground.

The lunar exploration spaceship successfully entered a natural karst cave inside the Moon.

And built a highly technological lunar building inside the cave.

More than twenty astronauts had already moved into this lunar base and started a series of research tasks.

Su Ping flew out from the top of Aoli's head.

With a sweep of his Divine Sense, the efforts of the Golden Core Spirit Beasts on the Moon Surface were all taken in at a glance.

Confirming that everything was normal.

Su Ping used the Fishing Compass.

Suddenly!

Su Ping felt a joy in his heart, seeing that the scene appearing before him was not Water Blue Star, but the Moon Surface.

"This is good news; Yue Hai counts as a sea too! I can fish just the same!"

"Fishing in Yue Hai!"

"There's no other angler who can be more awesome than me, right?"

Su Ping revealed a smile, and then his figure moved to head to the Moon Surface Fishing Spot.

That was on the far side of the Moon, which was full of various mysterious legends.

As Su Ping arrived at the far side of the Moon with ease.

It was a pity that he did not see any crashed alien spaceships here, nor did he see a gate leading to hell.

Besides various deep craters, it was just the endless Moon Surface.

At first glance, it was quite stunning.

After looking for a long time... one would feel it was monotonous and dull, and even a sense of loneliness would strike.

Su Ping did not stay for long.

As his figure flickered again, he appeared in a large crater on the far side of the Moon.

As he looked at the Fishing Spot before him, which had no water at all.

And was empty except for lunar soil and a thin atmosphere.

Su Ping took a Spirit Pill, then took out a floating meditation cushion, and sat cross-legged on the floating meditation cushion.

Su Ping cast out his fishing rod.

After reaching the Golden Core realm, Su Ping's fishing gear had also been upgraded from bird guns to cannons.

It was a set of Spirit Tools worth a small fortune.

The total value was worth more than the combined assets of some entire sects.

As the fishhook fell, it broke through the lunar soil and sank several meters into the ground.

Su Ping saw a notification that made him excited!

【New Fishing spot activated!】

【Current fishing spot rating: Third-rank low-grade】

【Current fishing spot cumulative available fishing attempts: (300/300)】

【Available fish species: Small Starlight Fish, Large Starlight Fish, Star Spirit Fish, Flowing Pattern Moonlight Flounder】
