Chapter 67: Second-tier Fishing Spot!

The island Su Ping was going to is named Xuangui Island.

It is an island covering nearly one hundred square kilometers, which counts as a large island of above-average size among the Overseas Islands.

A fishing village with about two hundred people lives on this island.

According to the records Su Ping could find, this Xuangui Island was once the headquarters of the ancient Immortal Sect, Xuanwu Sect.

At its peak, the Xuanwu Sect was rumored to be a top-tier sect that had produced Immortals and received tribute from ten thousand sects.

However, times changed, and as the Xuanwu Sect grew weaker with each generation, it was eventually wiped out for resisting the tyranny of Chiyuan Xianren.

It is said that it was also in that battle that the Spirit Vein of Xuangui Island was extracted, and the ruins of the Xuanwu Sect were wiped away by a single sword strike.

From then on, the Cultivation World no longer had the heritage of the Xuanwu Sect.

All that remained was a deep pit on the island that connected to the open sea, forming an inland Heavenly Pool.

It silently tells outsiders that an ancient Immortal Sect once existed here.

The fishing boat carried Su Ping to a crude port on Xuangui Island.

Before it had even stopped steadily, Su Ping took out a piece of gold again and gave it to the old fisherman, telling him to wait for him for one day, then with a light leap, he crossed the wooden bridge and disappeared into the depths of the island.

This left the old fisherman's children behind him dumbfounded.

"Im... Immortal Master? He really is an Immortal Master!"

The old fisherman's eldest son was scared pale, his brain turned to mush.

Su Ping, meanwhile, sped along, and in just a few minutes, he stood by the Heavenly Pool.

Here, Su Ping noticed many dilapidated and collapsed thatched cottages and tiled houses nearby.

It is rumored that because of the fame of the Xuanwu Sect, Xuangui Island is not short of Loose Cultivators and even Outer Sect Disciples seeking opportunities who come to try their luck.

Among them, some simply settled down by the Heavenly Pool.

But as the Spirit Qi of the Overseas Islands gradually thinned, even the Loose Cultivators could not bear it and chose to give up.

At this very moment, in the vast Heavenly Pool of Xuangui Island, there was no one else besides Su Ping.

"Great God of Fishing, bless me!"

Su Ping took out his fishing gear from his Storage Bag, took a deep breath, and cast the hook high into the air.

Splash!

As the hook submerged into the seawater of the Heavenly Pool.

The information bar that made Su Ping extremely excited finally popped up! It almost made Su Ping so excited that he let go of his fishing gear!

【New fishing spot activated!】

【Current fishing level: Level 3 (440/1000)】

【Current fishing spot rating: Second-tier low-grade】

【Current fishing spot accumulated fishing attempts: (200/200)】

【Available fish species: Small Flowing Pattern Fish, Large Flowing Pattern Fish, Flowing Pattern Golden Dragon Fish, Juvenile Xuan Turtle】

"It's actually a Second-tier fishing spot!"

"A Second-tier fishing spot can accumulate 200 fishing attempts, and the first three types of fish catches have also changed."

"The fourth type, the Juvenile Xuan Turtle, should be the specialty catch of this place."

"A Xuan Turtle, this should be in the category of divine beasts, I didn't expect to fish one out too!"

"I, the great fisherman, am mighty!"

Su Ping suppressed the joy in his heart, sat cross-legged, and began to fish.

For a Second-tier low-grade fishing spot, the time consumed for each fishing attempt also increases accordingly.

Two hundred times—Su Ping fished straight from noon until one or two in the morning before he finally finished these attempts.

When Su Ping saw the prompt that the current fishing spot attempts were exhausted and to come back next time, he ended his fishing.

Fishing Experience had already increased to: 【Current fishing level: Level 3 (640/1000)】

At the same time, in the fishing warehouse, there were an additional 120 Small Flowing Pattern Fish and 80 Large Flowing Pattern Fish.

A Small Flowing Pattern Fish is equivalent in value to a Big Green Fish and can be exchanged for five Fishing Coins.

A Large Flowing Pattern Fish directly doubles that, reaching 10 Fishing Coins.

Su Ping took out one Small Flowing Pattern Fish and one Large Flowing Pattern Fish respectively. It appeared that the small and large Flowing Pattern Fish were a type of Spirit Fish with a long, linear shape and strange silver patterns on their bodies.

The small ones were about half a jin, and the large ones would not exceed two jin in weight.

Su Ping, who had eaten small and big Green Fish, did not stand on ceremony; taking advantage of the night, he performed a simple preparation and then enjoyed them.

The meat of the Flowing Pattern Fish tasted a bit like salmon.

It tasted best when made into sashimi.

After eating it, he first felt a cool sensation, and as this coolness entered his abdomen.

It suddenly transformed into a stream of pure Spiritual Liquid, flowing throughout his entire body.

It made Su Ping almost hiss in comfort: "This feeling is a bit like the Emerald Wood Spirit Liquid of the Immortal Sect; not only can it quickly restore lost Dharma Power, but it can also have the effect of increasing cultivation like a Peiyuan Pill."

"The price is not much different from a high-grade Peiyuan Pill, and it requires Merit as a prerequisite for exchange!"

"If only this fish could be sold!"

"Forget it, forget it; if I dared to sell such a Spirit Fish, I fear even a Foundation Establishment master would turn green with envy and take action!"

Su Ping quickly shook his head, very sensibly giving up the thought that had popped up after being overly excited.

However, even if they cannot be sold, they can still be eaten by himself or exchanged for Fishing Coins.

Eating Peiyuan Pills while eating Flowing Pattern Spirit Fish.

Su Ping felt that his small goal of reaching Foundation Establishment within a year was becoming more and more likely to succeed!

It's just that for this fishing spot, the refresh time has also become longer after becoming Second-tier.

First Tier fishing spots refresh every week, 50-70 times each time, with a cap of 100 times; they are guaranteed to be fully refreshed every two weeks.

The refresh time for Second Tier fishing spots has changed to once every two weeks, 50-100 times each time, with a cap of 200 times; to fully refresh them takes at least four weeks and at most eight weeks! However, this is reasonable; games are always like this, the higher the level, the more difficult it is to level up and the more time-gated it becomes.

If I encounter Third Tier or Fourth Tier fishing spots in the future, I fear the refresh time will be even longer! Fortunately, the value of the fish caught will also become greater and greater.

"For this Xuangui Island fishing spot, if there is no rush, coming once a month in the future will suffice."

"What is more critical is that the opening of this fishing spot proves that my previous guess was highly likely to be correct."

"Apart from the Linyue Lake and reservoir gifted as beginner benefits, the fishing spots recognized by the Fishing Game must perhaps at least be Cave Heaven and Blessed Land related to the sites of ancient Immortal Sects!"

"If I follow this as a clue to search, it would be sim... simple my foot!"

"Unless these places are like Xuangui Island where the Spirit Vein is gone and the sect ruins are gone, otherwise which one isn't a Forbidden Land of a major power?"

"Even those ancient Secret Realms that suddenly appear in the world will be targeted by major powers once the danger is cleared."

"In the end, my strength is still too weak."

"I cannot get on the chessboard, let alone... flip the chessboard!"

After Su Ping slightly shook his head to calm his state of mind.

He summoned Wen San and let it stay here as a backup teleportation point.

Then Su Ping released a portion of controlled rats and distributed them across the entire island for monitoring purposes.

After finishing the arrangements, Su Ping entered the Pot Heaven and began tonight's Body Tempering with the help of the dense spiritual energy.

In the pool that was originally for soaking in hot springs, he placed a full fifteen Body Tempering Medicine Packs.

Under the urging of Su Ping's Dharma Power, the medicinal efficacy of these medicine packs was squeezed dry overnight.

Afterwards, this medicinal efficacy was absorbed by Su Ping and gathered together with the medicinal efficacy of the Waste Pill of Blood Qi Pill, frantically scouring every inch of Su Ping's body tissue.

When dawn arrived, Su Ping opened his eyes and felt a certain restlessness deep within his body.

Realizing this was an opportunity for a breakthrough, Su Ping, who understood what he needed most right now, immediately took out the Purification Potion and dripped one milliliter onto the tip of his tongue.

The next second, as Su Ping's body shook and scorching black Qi overflowed from his skin, Su Ping's entire aura rose and expanded rapidly.

The medicinal water in half of the pool was stirred up into the air, forming a water curtain waterfall.

All the medicine packs burst, and as the powder spilled out.

Su Ping, under the water mist, exhaled a long breath of turbid air, his eyes bright and piercing, and his skin faintly emitted a silvery-white luster: "Body Tempering Fifth Layer, success!"
