Protagonist:
Xu Zhangqing
The Netherworld Spirit Shrimp hid within the Yin River, its resentful eyes staring dead at the ferry boat through the water surface.
From this it could be seen, it absolutely would not give up easily, and would certainly launch another attack.
Facing this kind of situation, even though all three were at the Golden Core Stage, they temporarily had no way to deal with it.
After all, this was the extremely dangerous Yin River, the water was full of crazed Yin Beasts.
Zhu Rong let out a low shout: "There's movement!"
His bait was another Water Flea Egg.
Initially, there was no reaction at all from the water bottom.
But unexpectedly, at this moment it was suddenly pulled.
Xu Zhangqing had just prepared to go help, when Tai Bai's side also had a situation.
He was the only one among the three using a Taiyin Flower to fish.
"This thing's strength is extremely great!"
"It actually hooked at the same time!"
"You all be careful!"
Xu Zhangqing's heart stirred, his Divine Sense swept across underwater, carefully sensing.
At the Extreme Yin Flower, a palm-sized little fellow, its whole body covered in blue-black turtle shell, was currently biting dead onto the bait.
From the dense Taiyin patterns covering the turtle shell, it should be one of the three types of Yin Beasts recorded on the map, an Abyssal Profound Turtle Hatchling.
Don't look at its small body type, its strength was actually comparable to a Golden Core Early Stage cultivator, its four limbs paddling stirred up the turbulent currents, making even Tai Bai somewhat nervous.
And at Zhu Rong's Water Flea Egg, it was surrounded by over a hundred Cold Abyss Water Fleas, among them one with a body type far surpassing its same kind, its whole body shimmering with a ghostly blue luster, its antennae condensed with ice-crystal-like Yin Sha, suspected to be the leader of the clan.
Xu Zhangqing raised an eyebrow: "Abyssal Profound Turtle Hatchling and Cold Abyss Water Flea Leader?"
Looks like, the longer the fishing time, the higher the quality of what hooks.
Initially his side only had a group of water fleas, later it attracted a Netherworld Spirit Shrimp.
Right as he was thinking, Tai Bai and Zhu Rong both moved.
Crash!
The blue-black little turtle, carrying a mass of black water, smashed onto the ship deck.
Upon landing it immediately retracted into its turtle shell, the Taiyin patterns on the surface lit up, emitting a faint defensive spiritual light.
Tai Bai grinned: "Didn't expect the Extreme Yin Flower could actually fish up an Abyssal Profound Turtle."
On the other side, Zhu Rong's Divine Sense erupted, hauling out the fellow suspected to be the Cold Abyss Water Flea Leader, a full half-chi long, from the water surface.
It had just fallen onto the ship deck when it immediately opened its mouthparts, spraying out a stream of black Yin Sha liquid.
Fortunately Zhu Rong was prepared early, casually striking out a streak of scarlet intense flame, evaporating the liquid.
Then he lifted his right index finger, pointing lightly at the Cold Abyss Water Flea Leader, a wisp of fire qi instantly imprisoning its body, now it finally became honest.
Afterwards, the three on the ferry boat carefully observed.
This water flea leader was ghostly blue all over, the carapace on its body harder than ordinary Cold Abyss Water Fleas, obviously having absorbed a large amount of Taiyin Power.
Looking at this situation, without several hundred years time, it absolutely could not reach this degree.
Zhu Rong said seriously: "I can sense there is a Yin Sha Crystal inside its body."
Judging from the current view, whether Abyssal Profound Turtle Hatchling or Cold Abyss Water Flea Leader, their value outside is not low.
The Abyssal Profound Turtle's hatchling can be cultivated into a Spirit Pet.
The Cold Abyss Water Flea Leader's carapace can make Spirit Tools.
The Yin Sha Crystal is even more a rigid necessity for cultivating Yin Attribute cultivation methods and spells.
The reason they are so precious, one is it's too dangerous, one is it's too hard to find.
Suddenly, Xu Zhangqing's Divine Sense captured a disturbance coming from underwater, and extremely violent: "Large amounts of Yin Beasts are coming over!"
As soon as his voice fell, the water surface surged up.
Dozens of black shadows rushed out from underwater, uniformly pouncing toward the ferry boat.
These Yin Beasts had various forms, some looked like scaled saury.
Some were humanoid monsters wrapped entirely in Yin Thread Algae.
There were even some growing multiple compound eyes, their ghostly light making one's scalp numb.
Their appearance even scared away the Netherworld Spirit Shrimp that wanted revenge.
"What Yin Beasts are these?"
"On the map the Venerable gave, there's absolutely no record!"
"Looks like my guess was correct, after the Canglan Sea Region's Dragon Vein was severed, the Yin River environment underwent drastic change, not only did the original Yin Beasts produce changes, but new Yin Beasts were born!"
Seeing these fellows attacking, the three joined forces to act.
Xu Zhangqing summoned Leijin Kui, the little fellow instantly transforming into a dazzling thunder light, weaving back and forth among these Yin Beasts, quickly solving over a dozen.
Tai Bai took out the Smoke Gun, forcefully "sucked" a mouthful, the moment he blew it out, these smoke vapors instantly transformed into mist-like golden mang, everything they passed through was cut into pieces.
Zhu Rong released a Fire Ring, enveloping the three and even the entire ferry boat, whether Yin Beasts, Yin Water, Yin Sha, etc. approached they would be burned to slag.
Moreover, the ferry boat's Mooring Pattern and Purify Sha Pattern operated at full force, ghostly blue light enveloping the hull, the Yin Beasts' attacks landing on it could only emit "sizzling" sounds, absolutely unable to cause substantial damage.
The three also didn't fish anymore, standing on the ship deck fighting.
It lasted a good while; the remaining Yin Beasts, seeing they could not break through the Ferry Boat's defense and could not harm the people on board, turned and ran toward the other side, soon vanishing without a trace.
After a round of struggle, the three of them slew at least twenty Yin Beasts.
Their corpses floated on the water surface, wounds continuously flowing with cold Yin juice.
Although they did not recognize them, Xu Changqing and the others did not let them go, but instead had Zhu Rong collect all of them with a Storage Item.
Wan Niang does business; perhaps she knows these things.
Judging from the current situation, the value of these things is absolutely not low; there might be an unexpected joy.
Zhu Rong said thoughtfully: "I am not clear about the rest, but a juvenile Abyssal Black Turtle can be exchanged for two hundred high-grade Spirit Stones.
Yin Sha Crystal, a piece the size of a fingernail can be exchanged for eighty high-grade Spirit Stones; as for the tentacles and scales, they can also be exchanged for tens of thousands of middle-grade Spirit Stones."
Xu Changqing, hearing this, exchanged a glance with Tai Bai, and realized: "That is to say, although we consumed nearly a hundred high-grade Spirit Stones this time, we earned back several times that!"
Zhu Rong nodded: "Right, this is only what I know.
Those unknown Yin Beasts, their value is probably only higher, not lower."
Thus, the three of them all understood.
This Yin River, which is the so-called You Ming Han Yuan, is actually a high-level hunting ground.
The Spiritual Treasures and Yin Beasts inside are extremely rare outside, very hard to see.
Precisely because of this, the value of these things is extremely high.
The only regret is that only one Water Flea Egg remains.
Unknown whether this Water Flea leader will lay eggs, whether it can be cultivated long-term.
If it can, then Xu Changqing and the others have discovered a road to earn high-grade Spirit Stones.
It is common knowledge that the higher the realm, the higher the quality of Spirit Stones needed, and the greater the quantity.
Qi Refining Stage, Foundation Establishment Stage, Golden Core Stage — middle-grade Spirit Stones can still be used.
Once one breaks through to Nascent Soul Stage, buying anything at random consumes high-grade Spirit Stones.
The time was still early; the three did not plan to return immediately, and continued fishing with Extreme Yin Flowers.
Not to mention, afterward they fished up several more Yin Beasts and a bundle of Yin Nether Algae.
Several hours later, seeing that the bait they brought had been used up.
Xu Changqing called out: "Let us return."
Zhu Rong and Tai Bai nodded, and began tallying this trip's harvest.
But suddenly, a strange sound of water flow came from upstream.
Splash~
Splash~~
Splash~~~
Immediately after, a pitch-black coffin drifted down along the surging river water!
