Protagonist:
Xu Zhangqing
The old Bai family of three had to temporarily leave the Dongting Immortal Sect, and on top of that the Formal Disciple Competition was about to end, so there was no way to continue drawing talismans.
Since that was the case, Xu Zhangqing simply went to the Rain Water Pavilion first, collected the one thousand Spirit Talismans the other party had prepared, and then went to Black Dragon Pool.
It was on the way anyway.
After preparing various snacks, he immediately summoned Big Leaf Grass, his whole person rapidly shot up into the sky, and then Wood Generates Fire, Fire Generates Earth, three types of Spiritual Power kept erupting.
Whoosh—
Big Leaf Grass instantly sliced through a thousand meters of sky, its speed several times faster than before.
Along this journey, wherever there was water, the figures of fishing enthusiasts could be seen.
Practically a pit every ten steps, people everywhere.
Too bad he didn't see Lao Zhao, otherwise he would have definitely greeted him.
And conveniently arranged a time for rain.
Very quickly, Xu Zhangqing used a shorter time than before and smoothly arrived at Rain Water Pavilion.
And this time, neither Xuanwu nor Tengshe were seen, unknown where they had gone off to.
"Unexpectedly, the decisive battle of the Formal Disciple Competition is actually Chu Qiu versus Mo Sha!"
"What's so unexpected, these two are very powerful to begin with, especially Chu Shixiong!"
"However, no one expected the third place to actually be Jian Hanxin?!"
Xu Zhangqing had just entered the first floor hall of Rain Water Pavilion when he heard the surrounding Water Spirit Root disciples discussing animatedly.
The content was nothing but various information about the Formal Disciple Competition.
From the surrounding people's dialogue, Xu Zhangqing learned that the first place of this Formal Disciple Competition would emerge from Chu Qiu and Mo Sha.
As for who exactly, it was still unclear, because the final decisive battle would only begin tomorrow!
However, third place has already been confirmed.
It is Jian Hanxin, who was once listed as one of the Four Little Geniuses along with Lan Tian, Rong Yan, and Huo Wan.
This person originally had a Metal Spirit Root, but during the Formal Disciple Competition, when fighting another powerful Water Spirit Root enemy, the two Spirit Roots stimulated each other and produced a mutation.
The Metal Spirit Root became a Thunder Spirit Root!
A situation where originally no one could do anything to the other, was stubbornly instantly reversed.
Jian Hanxin, with even more powerful strength and bearing, easily defeated his opponent, ultimately securing the good result of third place in the Formal Disciple Competition.
It is said that he has now caught the eye of a certain Immortal Master, and is about to become a Core Disciple, ascending to Xianfeng.
Xu Zhangqing clicked his tongue in amazement: "A person's opportunity, luck path, truly cannot be explained clearly; things that seem incomprehensible yet perfectly reasonable always happen."
He had met Jian Hanxin a few times; this person always kept a stiff face, walking the cold and ruthless route.
But actually, he and Huo Wan were the best two among the four.
Lan Tian, once high and mighty, looking down on those weaker than himself.
Rong Yan, his own talent was decent, but the real reason he became one of the Four Little Geniuses was actually the Rong Family behind him.
This is the Spirit Field First Cultivation Family; the resources and connections they control are not something others can compare to.
But now, Lan Tian has been dejected ever since being defeated by Mo Sha, and still hasn't come out of the shadow.
As for Rong Yan, from the surrounding people's mouths, he learned that although this fellow relied on a powerful Spirit Tool to consecutively defeat several opponents, his luck was a bit poor; in the preliminary round he ran into... Mo Sha.
The two are truly birds of a feather, both defeated by Mo Sha.
And Huo Wan entered the top ten, currently ranked ninth.
Jian Hanxin smoothly defeated his opponent, currently ranked third.
Right now, it's just a matter of seeing which of Chu Qiu and Mo Sha is first and which is second.
Not long after, Xu Zhangqing arrived at the third floor of Rain Water Pavilion.
Soon he saw Bai Xiaotian, Bai Ling'er, Zhang Xue.
Xu Zhangqing actively greeted them: "Long time no see."
Zhang Xue looked him up and down, and when she saw the Spirit Nurturer's Token, said with considerable surprise: "Haven't seen you for a while, and you've already become a Spirit Nurturer?"
Xu Zhangqing laughed hehe: "It's all everyone's support."
Zhang Xue's gaze became complex, she secretly thought: "Back then, if I had persisted a bit more, would it have been different?"
At this time, Xu Zhangqing turned to look at Bai Xiaotian and Bai Ling'er: "You're starting to pack up already?"
Bai Ling'er stepped forward, tugged his clothes corner, wanting to speak but stopping: "That..."
"What?" Xu Zhangqing lowered his head to look at her.
Bai Ling'er then asked: "Did you bring snacks?"
This departure would take at least several months before returning.
Thinking of having no Xu Zhangqing snacks, her heart felt very reluctant.
But there was no choice, the matter on her mother's side was indeed a bit serious, she had to rush over as soon as possible.
Xu Zhangqing blinked: "Before coming, I specially made preparations."
Afterward, he took out the various snacks he had prepared in advance.
There were Lingfan, melons, fruits, vegetables, and also cakes bought from the Loose Cultivator market.
In short, the quantity was very large.
It directly submerged even the not-tall Bai Ling'er.
Zhang Xue stared wide-eyed: "So many?"
"Wow!"
Bai Ling'er's eyes shone with light.
Bai Xiaotian furrowed his brows: "You doing it like this, can she still eat her meal properly and honestly?"
Xu Zhangqing grinned: "She's a child, not eating meals and liking to eat snacks is very normal."
Although Bai Xiaotian was dissatisfied, he did not get angry, and immediately waved his hand: "Alright, I can't be bothered to lecture you guys, come with me."
After speaking, he took the lead walking toward the small room for drawing talismans.
Xu Zhangqing immediately followed closely behind.
When the two arrived at the small room, they indeed saw many Spirit Talismans stacked up.
Judging from the traces, luster, and smell, some of them had just been completed not long ago.
Bai Xiaotian said seriously: "Inside here there are Golden Light Town Evil Talismans, Thunder Fire Burn Yin Talismans, Big Dipper Seize Soul Talismans, Purify Yin Transform Sha Talismans, Three Edicts Hundred Solutions Eliminate Disaster Talismans, each type has at least two hundred sheets, enough for you to use to earn Spirit Stones."
Xu Zhangqing's eyes brightened: "Old Bai, you can do it!"
While packing up the talisman-drawing tools, Bai Xiaotian said: "This departure will take at least two or three months or even half a year or more, I don't understand the business aspect either, the specifics depend on your own operation, in short just don't lose money."
Xu Zhangqing put away these Spirit Talismans, then nodded: "Okay."
Bai Xiaotian thought for a moment, then reminded: "That Gui Xu Secret Realm you absolutely must not go to, the danger inside is incomparable, and it's not just Our Immortal Sect's disciples participating, there are also disciples from other Immortal Sects, even disciples from various small sects, the scene will be extremely chaotic."
Xu Zhangqing patted his chest, saying quite proudly: "Things like fighting, battles, going out on expeditions — I'm not interested in any of them, I only have a unique fondness for farming and earning money!"
Bai Xiaotian nodded slightly: "That's good then."
Next, Xu Zhangqing chatted with the few people for a while before leaving.
When he went from the Third Layer down to the First Layer, he suddenly discovered quite a few people gathered.
He leaned in close to look, and it was actually Lan Tian, Jian Hanxin, and a female disciple of Yu Shui Pavilion.
The three huddled together, among them Jian Hanxin and the female disciple exchanged glances, looking like their relationship was not simple.
Xu Zhangqing had not the slightest impression of this person, as if he had never seen her before.
At this time, the person beside him introduced her.
It turned out this female disciple was precisely the one who caused Jian Hanxin's Spiritual Root to mutate.
Unexpectedly, the two fought and fought, and actually turned from opponents into... cough cough.
Although he had never seen this female disciple, being able to break into the Formal Disciple Competition finals, even entering the top five, was enough to prove her strength was extraordinary.
It seems truly powerful people are all very low-profile.
Xu Zhangqing's attention quickly concentrated on Jian Hanxin.
This person used to be like an unsheathed sharp blade, introverted, steady.
But now, instead his sharp edge was fully revealed, his whole person's aura fully open.
His eyes, were actually pale purple.
In the past, he followed beside Lan Tian, just like a passerby.
Now, Lan Tian follows beside him, like a lackey.
Truly times have changed, fortune turns full circle.
Now all the limelight, gazes, are entirely attracted by Jian Hanxin.
After watching for a while, Xu Zhangqing bypassed the crowd, left Yu Shui Pavilion, then drove the Big Leaf Grass straight toward Black Dragon Pool.
After many years, arriving at Bai Zhang Cliff again, the scenery here is quite nice, a good place for seclusion.
But Xu Zhangqing did not stop to appreciate it, instead he rushed downward, leaping into the secluded Black Dragon Pool.
Here compared to memory is about the same, not much change.
When he reached the deepest part, he saw many things.
For example fishing rods, fish hooks and the like.
However, he did not see a single fishing old man.
Looks like although people occasionally come here, it's more out of curiosity.
Even without fish yaos, wanting to catch Dragon Fish is not an easy matter.
After all, the bait is the key.
Seeing this, Xu Zhangqing put away the Big Leaf Grass, then took out the Yao Long Shui Shui Chuan that had not been used for a long time, and lightly tossed it downward.
This thing expands when it meets wind, grows large when it meets water.
After falling into the water, it was already about the size of a normal boat.
Xu Zhangqing leaped up, steadily landing on the ship deck, then with a thought, this wooden boat automatically drilled downward, and soon both boat and person submerged into the water.
All the way down, the first several hundred meters nothing could be seen.
When it reached nearly one kilometer, there was finally a discovery.
Fish.
A fish entirely red yet glowing with golden light.
If not a Dragon Fish, what is it?
Xu Zhangqing was very excited: "Good, I want to see how many I can catch this time."
Immediately, the Yao Mu Shui Shui Chuan rushed over.
When they got close, Xu Zhangqing still used the old method, using vines to entangle, easily catching this plump Dragon Fish.
Immediately afterward, he continued to control the Yao Mu Shui Shui Chuan toward the depths.
Soon he discovered a second Dragon Fish.
Then came a third, fourth... fifth.
Unknown whether it was a coincidence, it was exactly five Dragon Fish again, just like last time, and then not even one more appeared.
Though somewhat disappointed, Xu Zhangqing was already very satisfied.
Better than coming away empty-handed, right?
What's more, this time besides catching Dragon Fish, he had another thing to do.
Before, because his strength was not high and his Spiritual Realm was too low, although he was curious about what lay behind the Yao Long Remains, he did not go inside to look.
Now that he had come this time, naturally he wanted to investigate thoroughly.
Just like that, he kept advancing toward the depths without stopping.
Not long after, that familiar cold breath emerged.
At first it was not very obvious, but as Sui Zhe the distance grew closer, the sensation became increasingly clear.
Then, before his eyes appeared a large Yao Long Remains whose length was visually estimated to be over ten zhang, that is, thirty-three meters.
And as expected of a Dragon, even after being dead for so long, it still inspired awe!
