Chapter 347: Merging Fishing Spots, the Bewildered Old Ancestor of the Mu Family

Obtained one Inheritance Stone Stele inscribed personally by the old Sect Master of the Weiwo Duzun Sect, suspected.

Su Ping's trip to the Dragon Raising Lake could be considered a complete success.

In a pleasant mood, Su Ping simply cast his fishing rod into the Dragon Raising Lake.

Then... unsurprisingly, no notification about discovering a new fishing spot appeared.

Su Ping was used to this.

Without using a Fishing Compass, finding a fishing spot could be described as extremely difficult.

He just gave it a casual try, holding the mindset of "if I get it, it is my fortune; if I lose it, it is my fate."

He retracted the fishing rod and cast it again, randomly, toward the surface of the lake where the original Longgong ruins were located.

Su Ping suddenly shuddered slightly.

His eyes brightened, and a circle of Primordial Spirit Golden Light radiated from his body, shielding him from outside gazes and perception.

Only then did Su Ping carefully look at the stream of information notifications at the corner of his eye.

【New fishing spot discovered!】

【Current fishing spot rating: First Tier High Grade】

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

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

【Attention!】

【High-grade fishing spot with similar specialty discovered】

【Red Blood Dragon Carp efficacy is twice that of Red Blood Rainbow Carp!】

【Merge with similar fishing spot to increase cumulative fishing attempts and recovery attempts?】

"Fishing spots with the same effect can be merged and upgraded?"

"Hmm... is this finally a burden-reducing operation done by the developers?"

"This way, players won't need to run around for catches with the same effects."

"And this merging is quite user-friendly; the merged fishing spot is chosen by the player themselves."

Su Ping did not rush to merge.

Instead, he first retrieved his Golden Throne from his Storage Spirit Tool.

Then he threw out a Bronze Array Disk.

After the array disk chimed, phantom images of a Azure Dragon, White Tiger, Black Tortoise, and Vermilion Bird emerged in mid-air, hovering behind Su Ping.

These divine beasts were naturally illusions, coming from that illusion array disk.

And this array disk came from the collection of a Grandmaster of divination, serving as the Token of the Sect Master of the ancient Four Symbols Sect.

It is rumored to be able to increase one's mysterious luck in the dark.

Su Ping didn't care if it was useful; he wouldn't lose anything by using it, so he kept it.

After activating it, Su Ping sat upright and began to fish with his rod.

As for the changes in the outside world.

With his Primordial Spirit present, and the loyal Demon Emperors maintaining Order.

No trouble occurred.

Even when sect forces from other directions occasionally sent disciples to investigate the truth about the Dragon Raising Lake.

Upon seeing that heaven-shocking Nether Yin Qi from afar.

They all found excuses for themselves within a few breaths of time, then decisively turned around and fled in the direction away from the Dragon Raising Lake.

With no one to disturb him, Su Ping could be considered a veteran angler.

The target was once again a First Tier fishing spot.

With one hundred fishing attempts, it only took Su Ping half an hour before the fishing spot was exhausted and the "Please come back next time" notification popped up.

Looking at his harvest this time, he obtained 57 Small Green Fish, 40 Big Green Fish, two Green Spirit Fish, and one Red Blood Dragon Carp.

Two rare ones and one specialty.

Su Ping didn't know if the Four Symbols Array Disk had taken effect, or if it was because he had gained world luck by saving the suffering.

After all, the catches from his previous fishing trips weren't much worse.

Su Ping put away his fishing gear.

Then he took out the Red Blood Dragon Carp.

This crimson carp was similar in size to the Red Blood Rainbow Carp, except the dragon whiskers at the fish's head were a section longer.

The grade of this Red Blood Dragon Carp was still rare, indicating it was consistent with the Red Blood Rainbow Carp.

It was just stronger in terms of efficacy, clearly a superior replacement for the Red Blood Rainbow Carp.

Su Ping opened his mouth and swallowed it, feeling that the taste seemed a bit more delicious.

It was a pity that it melted in his mouth, not giving his tongue more time to savor it.

"Whew... Immortal Body progress increased by two, reaching thirty-six percent!"

"One is worth two!"

"Merge!"

"The location, naturally, is the Linyue Lake fishing spot stored in the Pot Heaven!"

As Su Ping chose to merge.

Su Ping's Primordial Spirit immediately felt that this three-thousand-mile Dragon Raising Lake seemed to have suddenly lost a certain charm.

The earth veins of the relevant land also suddenly had their aura change.

Then the aura began to drop by a large margin.

Su Ping withdrew his Divine Sense and looked back at the fishing spot.

The merged fishing spot inherited the First Tier High Grade rating of Dragon Raising Lake.

The cumulative count increased from 100 to 200.

The recovery count also increased from 30-70 times per week to 60-140 times per week.

Clearly, the merged fishing spot was not stingy in discounting the count.

It could be said that merging was not only not a loss but actually a bit of a gain!

After all, the specialty was upgraded to a stronger high-level catch.

After Su Ping finished fishing, the various affairs of Dragon Raising Lake were also basically handled cleanly.

All the caves relying on Dragon Raising Lake were moved out completely.

The survivors were also all rescued.

A satisfied Su Ping waved his hand, the Sun Moon Star Chart flew out, opened the gate to the Medium World, and after receiving everyone present.

He then flew together with the Green Heaven-Swallowing Tiger toward the other few places where there might still be inheritances of the Only I Am Supreme Sect.

Those places had long since decayed and declined.

The Green Heaven-Swallowing Tiger could suppress them alone, so there was no need to go through the trouble of internal sneak attacks.

…………

At the edge of the Five Elements World.

The thunderous roar was incessant.

One after another, large Evil Spirits were resisting the Purple Thunder striking down from the sky, desperately squeezing out from oval-shaped Space Cracks.

At least two-thirds of these large Evil Spirits had their bodies destroyed by the thunder before they were even fully squeezed out, and then their corpses and remains were pressed back into the Space Cracks and scattered into the Dark Void.

The other one-third of the large Evil Spirits that managed to enter were also all heavily injured.

However, the very result of them successfully entering the Five Elements World.

Caused the entire Five Elements World to suffer continuous damage.

"Quickly drive those monsters out!"

The Mu Family Old Ancestor shouted, and together with the Old Ancestors of the Fire Family, Water Family, and others, took action to try to stop these large Evil Spirits, thereby completing the task assigned to them by the Sect Master.

They also understood that this matter was urgent, so they were all working diligently.

Yet they did not expect that after using many trump cards, the situation was still constantly worsening.

"Old Mu! We have to risk our lives!"

"If this place is lost and the Five Elements Mending Array cannot operate, we will all be unable to bear the Sect Master's blame!"

The Patriarch of the Fire Family roared after casting several powerful fire Talismans.

At the same time, he took out a Jade Slip and crushed it fiercely!

Boom!

A thousand-meter giant emitting an ancient aura and composed entirely of crimson flames appeared above the Fire Family Old Ancestor.

That was the guardian fire spirit of the Fire Family.

This was an extremely rare natural deity.

Unfortunately, the Five Elements World had no room for it to grow, and time was also lacking.

Making this fire spirit far from reaching the limit it could have attained.

Currently, it was only at the early stage of Return to Void, but by relying on its innate divine ability, it could exert the combat power of a mid-to-late stage Return to Void Cultivator.

The Old Ancestors of the other families saw that the Fire Family had even brought out their bottom-line assets.

They also sighed one after another and used their own trump cards.

For a time, precious light and treasures flew across the battlefield, and all kinds of divine weapons and divine beasts appeared.

The large Evil Spirits were also suppressed by this momentum.

Many large Evil Spirits were bombarded by various spiritual lights and immediately exploded into clumps of pitch-black remains.

They were then immediately sealed and suppressed by the Old Ancestors using divine weapons.

They also subsequently gained a moment of respite.

And then discovered a slight abnormality in their own team.

After the Old Ancestors of each family brought out their housekeeping skills and took out their trump cards.

They soon discovered that there was one person in their team who had not taken out a trump card!

Immediately, dozens of pairs of eyes filled with doubt and resentment stared at the Mu Family Old Ancestor.

The Mu Family Old Ancestor looked embarrassed and hurriedly explained:

"It is not that this old man is stingy; it is truly that this old man crushed the Jade Slip and used the Secret Technique."

"But... but the guardian divine beast of my Mu Family, as well as those divine weapons, did not respond to this old man!"

"This old man is worried that there might be a great change in my Mu Family!"

"Old man Mu! Are you trying to escape even now?"

"Are you truly not afraid of the Sect Master's blame!"

The Fire Family Old Ancestor could not watch any longer and hurriedly snorted coldly.

Seeing that the atmosphere between the two famous big shots was becoming increasingly wrong.

Elders from other families hurriedly came over to smooth things over.

Then, the Water Family Old Ancestor also hurriedly took out a precious mirror and threw it toward the sky.

The precious mirror immediately became like a small lake hanging upside down in the sky.

The ice-blue lake water rippled, gradually revealing the scene of the Mu Family's Zhu Feng.

Then, the expressions of all the Old Ancestors present changed.

Looking at the Mu Family Zhu Feng that had been reduced to ruins in the image.

The gazes that were originally filled with blame also became complex.

Some gloated, while others felt a sense of shared grief, their hearts filled with worry for their own families.

They contacted their respective families one after another, and only after learning that everything was safe did they feel much more at ease.

"What?"

"The Green Heaven-Swallowing Tiger came in person, coerced the Elder left behind, and handed over the Inheritance Cave Heaven?"

"And it even swept the family treasury clean?"

"Hiss!"

"What a thief! To actually bully my clan!"

Suddenly, a sword cultivator in this group let out a discordant sound.

It was even more so because it involved the Green Heaven-Swallowing Tiger.

It caused the various Old Ancestors to hurriedly probe over with their Divine Sense.

Sensing the Old Ancestors' Divine Sense, the sword cultivator gritted their teeth to hold on while hurriedly reporting the news they had learned through the Jade Slip transmission.

This sword cultivator was a Guest Minister of the Heaven and Earth Five Elements Sect.

After breaking through to the Transformation of God stage relying on the Heaven and Earth Five Elements Sect, they turned the sect they originally came from into their own family business.

They created a not-so-large and not-so-small immortal cultivation family that was affiliated with the Heaven and Earth Five Elements Sect.

Yet, they did not expect that their family, which had always been lukewarm, would encounter a disaster today.

And the opponent was the Green Heaven-Swallowing Tiger, whom they had always thought was one of their own!

"Impossible!"

"My connection with the Green Heaven-Swallowing Tiger has already been severed."

"Even if it was forcibly severed, that Green Heaven-Swallowing Tiger should have suffered injuries and be in urgent need of quiet recuperation!"

"It is definitely some other Evil Spirit deliberately disguised as it!"

The Mu Family Ancestor roared with great momentum.

He wanted to settle this matter once and for all, and then quickly move on.

Because deep down, he did not believe that the Green Heaven-Swallowing Tiger had betrayed the Mu Family.

He even guessed, based on his understanding of his own people, whether a group of unfilial descendants had followed the heavily injured Green Heaven-Swallowing Tiger to escape.

And then... in order to obtain resources to heal its wounds.

It had the Green Heaven-Swallowing Tiger come forward and perform an "Empty City Strategy" to swindle resources from that small family.

Otherwise, the Mu Family Ancestor knew the Green Heaven-Swallowing Tiger.

When this guy wanted to rob someone, it certainly wouldn't leave a single living soul behind.

How could it just take some resources and let the other party go?

Moreover, speaking of this sword cultivator's family, it seemed they also hid some good things.

He wondered if it had taken them away while it was at it to make up for his own family's losses!

The Mu Family Ancestor was thinking just this.

When he suddenly heard another person exclaim.

The family territory where they were located had also been robbed by the Green Heaven-Swallowing Tiger!

And this time, it had even taken action!

After speaking, they took out a Jade Slip and input Dharma Power.

Thus, everyone saw the scene that had happened not long ago.

Above a bamboo forest, the imposing Green Heaven-Swallowing Tiger appeared high up, and then loudly stated its demands.

The family Elder left behind hurriedly replied respectfully, wanting to stall for time to contact the Old Ancestor.

But they saw the Green Heaven-Swallowing Tiger immediately grin hideously, swatting out a ball of green-tinged black flames.

It directly broke the bamboo forest array.

Frightening a series of exclamations from the magnificent palace complex within the array.

Seeing the array broken, they knelt on the ground one after another, begging for mercy while satisfying all the demands made by the Green Heaven-Swallowing Tiger.

Looking at the imposing Green Heaven-Swallowing Tiger in the projection, which didn't look like it was in an injured state at all.

The Mu Family Ancestor's heart skipped a beat, and he began to feel that something was wrong.

He looked at the Shijia Laozu for help.

The Shijia Laozu nodded slightly and took the Token related to the Green Heaven-Swallowing Tiger handed over by the Mu Family Ancestor.

He silently recited an incantation.

The lake high in the sky rippled with water splashes once again.

Then the water ripples became more and more intense, and larger and larger.

Making the Shijia Laozu also let out an "eh," unable to help but grab his short beard.

And then, as he increased his output of Dharma Power.

An image finally appeared on the water surface.

But it only showed a large head of the Green Heaven-Swallowing Tiger.

And one could see the wide-open round eyes on that large head, carrying a hint of playfulness.

"Eh?"

Seeing this look, the Shijia Laozu immediately sensed that something was wrong.

He was just about to wave his hand to retract his divine ability.

Yet he saw a white mist suddenly permeate the screen.

Within the white mist, vaguely and indistinctly, the phantom images of continuous mountain peaks appeared above the mist.

But there was simply no time to look closely.

From within the white mist came a sense of great terror that made every Cultivator present palpitate with fear!

In an instant!

The lake exploded with a splash!

After Shijia Laozu let out an incomparably shrill cry of agony.

He and the precious mirror in the sky actually fell from the air together.

As for the others present, regardless of their cultivation level, they were all similarly shaken by the great terror that had just been in the white mist.

When they finally came to their senses.

They discovered that Shijia Laozu had already smashed a giant crater over a thousand meters in diameter into the ground!

"This is a power not inferior to those Children of the Evil Gods!"

"No, more than that! It should exceed any Child of the Evil God we have ever seen!"

"And it is not the same system!"

"So... was the Green Heaven-Swallowing Tiger subdued by the master of this power?"

After coming to their senses, many Cultivators looked toward the Mu Family Ancestor, having guessed a thing or two.

The Mu Family Ancestor also had a pale face, finding it hard to accept the fact that his family had truly been razed to the ground and that their guardian divine beast, the Green Heaven-Swallowing Tiger, had followed someone else away!
