Chapter 535: The Stone Fishing Method!

~6 min read 1,184 words

"Hearing Lingxin, you are about 20 kilograms."

"How many kilograms is one 'frown-fish'?"

"Ah?"

"Using my weight to compare to a 'frown-fish'? That's a difference of hundreds of thousands of times!"

"Li Yao, you're making it too hard for me!"

Hearing Lingxin fell into deep thought,

extending several water tentacles, continuously gesturing in the air.

"One 'frown-fish' is about 600, 00 kilograms."

"Six thousand tons?" Li Yao couldn't help but gasp. This was no small number. "Four 'frown-fish' weights would be twenty-four thousand tons."

He could already imagine

that the Ferryman in Hearing Lingxin's words was likely a creature of immense size!

"Where should we find so much food?" Shang Shang Yana was a bit troubled.

"That's simple!" Hearing Lingxin's body turned azure blue, looking very excited.

"Fishing!"

The next day,

the two people and one water spirit descended from the Silver Tree.

Shang Shang Yana put the Silver Tree into her storage ring.

The two followed Hearing Lingxin's guidance

and entered deep into the land behind them.

This dark green land—

Li Yao had been here before,

but that time, because of the existence of the Flame-Seat Crab,

he couldn't feel a trace of vitality in the surroundings.

All living creatures had stayed far away from this place in advance to avoid the arrival of that behemoth.

This time,

the Flame-Seat Crab wouldn't come ashore to dock for another month.

Li Yao could clearly sense

that there were countless life energy sources around.

Among them, several auras had a strength of at least Lord-level!

Stepping into the brown giant tree forest, thick fog permeated, providing an excellent hunting environment for many creatures good at concealment.

Shang Shang Yana's steps lagged slightly behind,

looking at Student Li Yao beside her.

If she had come to the Abyss alone, in a place where the thick fog was so dense that visibility was less than ten meters, she would probably still be a bit afraid.

But now,

she spent more time admiring the exotic scenery of the Abyss.

Li Yao summoned Ah Li,

telling it not to hide its aura.

The powerful, pure soul aura completely warded off danger.

The native monsters, at most Lord-level, wouldn't dare offend the master of this aura.

Li Yao didn't know where Hearing Lingxin wanted to take him.

After walking quickly for over an hour, the thick fog began to dissipate.

There were more and more brown giant trees around, and their color was getting deeper.

Every large tree was wrapped in dark brown vines; no matter how different their forms, they were all nearly a meter thick.

Even an ordinary person, by stepping on the vines, could climb these brown giant trees that were over a hundred meters tall.

"We're here!" Hearing Lingxin extended its water tentacles, attaching them to both of them.

"It's these vines that can serve as 'fishing lines'!"

"They can withstand the pulling force of a 'frown-fish', they are very resilient, but a sharp blade cuts them easily."

Hearing this, Li Yao drew Spider Kiss

and slashed at the very bottom of a vine.

The sensation of the slash was just like cutting tofu; the cut was flat and smooth.

Li Yao stepped on the vines and leaped to the top of the tree in a few steps,

and cut the vine that connected the top to the tree branch.

Gainer-At appeared,

grabbed the cut at the very top,

and flew in a circle down to the base of the tree.

A vine about a meter thick and of endless length appeared before everyone's eyes.

According to the height of the giant tree

and the density of the vines wrapped around the trunk,

the total length of the vine was about two thousand meters.

"Not enough!" Hearing Lingxin assessed it. "We need at least forty 'frown-fish' worth of vines!"

"Twenty kilometers of fishing line?" Shang Shang Yana was slightly stunned.

"Because time is a bit tight, the fish we are going to catch are 'frown-fish'. We only need to catch four to pay the Ferryman's reward!"

"'Frown-fish' don't appear in shallow water, so we have to throw the fishing line out to a distance of twenty kilometers!"

"Of course!" Hearing Lingxin glanced at the Great Dark-Winged Dragon that had previously terrified it. "If this one can pull up a 'frown-fish', then we don't need it to be so long! Just connecting one or two vines together would be enough!"

"Probably not," Li Yao replied.

Gainer-At's main attribute was Spirit;

even with the benefit of 'The World is Close', its Strength attribute wouldn't increase.

It definitely couldn't pull up a behemoth of several thousand tons.

And the only chess pieces that could fly to the sea surface to fish

were Gainer-At and the Blue Bird.

As for the Blue Bird,

that was even more impossible!

Kha'Zix and Gainer-At got busy.

Kha'Zix was responsible for cutting the vines, and Gainer-At was responsible for dismantling them from the giant trees.

Before long,

the surroundings were surrounded by a large area of vines.

Even when these vines lay on the ground, they were nearly a meter high.

It was as if they were in a maze.

Li Yao leaped onto Gainer-At's back,

found the joints of these vines,

and after a great deal of effort, managed to tie all these vines together.

Just like that,

a giant 'fishing line' twenty kilometers long was successfully completed!

This kind of fishing line

was almost enough to make a fisherman weep.

It was impossible to imagine how massive a fish it would catch!

"Next is the bait." Hearing Lingxin said, its little head surveying the surroundings, and it soon found the target.

It was a giant rock covered in moss,

at least over a hundred meters wide!

Li Yao looked in the direction Hearing Lingxin was pointing.

Li Yao was confused.

Isn't it bait?

A rock?

Is this reasonable?!

Hearing Lingxin used its water tentacles to frame the outline of the giant rock in the air.

"About half is enough!"

"Li Yao, cut it in half! It's just right for catching two!"

Li Yao had no choice but to comply.

He glanced at Kha'Zix,

who immediately understood.

"Swish!"

A scarlet light flashed by.

The giant rock was split in two from the middle.

With a 'boom', it fell to both sides.

"So amazing!" Watching the scene before it, Hearing Lingxin kept clapping its two tentacles.

Li Yao looked at the giant rock and the surrounding vine maze,

three black lines appearing on his forehead. "Can these two things really catch fish?"

"Of course!"

"I only thought of catching 'frown-fish' because I know time is tight!"

"Otherwise, we could just go into the shallow sea to catch small fish. With Li Yao's strength, it would take a week or two to catch enough small fish to equal the weight of four 'frown-fish'."

"If we catch 'frown-fish', if we're lucky, we can catch two or three in one day! Two days would be enough!"

"I saw this method in the Titan race's documents, it absolutely won't be wrong!"

Hearing this,

Li Yao finally felt relieved.
