Chapter 355 Fishing
Celestial Lake City was a rare big city under the Jade Sword Holy Land’s jurisdiction.
It also had a spiritual land like the Celestial Lake, so it was definitely a key location for the Jade Sword Holy Land to be stationed.
Not only did it have a Dragon Transformation expert guarding it, but it also had a super spirit-locking formation.
Since the establishment of Celestial Lake City, there had been almost no disturbances.
!!
But now, it fell into chaos just like that. This didn’t seem like an accident at all. Instead, it seemed like a long-planned conspiracy.
However, none of this was important to Zhou
Feng.
He had already left Celestial Lake City ahead of schedule and headed toward the Celestial Lake.
However, some foreign cultivators were now forced to stay in Celestial Lake City.
It was impossible to leave. The great formation had already sealed the entire Celestial Lake City.
Although the Celestial Lake was called a lake, it was actually a large swamp.
It was made up of countless lakes. In the depths of the Celestial Lake, there were even all kinds of demonic beasts and other races.
Thanks to Big Yellow’s hard work, Zhou Feng finally reached the Celestial Lake before dark.
“Is this the Celestial Lake?”
Looking at the scene in front of him, Zhou Feng felt an inexplicable shock in his heart.
The boundless lake surface and the dreamy mist were very similar to the legendary Cloud Dream Swamp.
The surrounding Spiritual Qi was also denser than in other places. It seemed good to cultivate here for a while.
‘I should find a foothold first!’
Zhou Feng sighed before searching for a foothold.
A safe foothold in the wild was extremely crucial.
For him, his first thought was naturally to find a cave.
Compared to other places, a cave was more secure.
After a while, he found a suitable place, a short mountain that was not far from the Celestial Lake.
Although there was no cave, Zhou Feng used his body to dig out a cave.
Then, he began to set up a formation and made some simple arrangements.
This small cave was extremely hidden as many vines concealed the entrance.
If one didn’t search carefully, it would be difficult to discover that there was a cave here.
After the layout was almost complete, Zhou Feng specifically ordered Big Yellow, “Big Yellow, take good care of the cave entrance, understand?”
He definitely wouldn’t have dared to be so bold to find a cave and enter seclusion randomly if it were in the past.
This was because there were many dangers in the wild compared to the human cities.
These dangers came from human cultivators and the myriad races.
However, Zhou Feng felt much more at ease with Big Yellow’s warning ability.
As a Mountain Spirit Hound, Big Yellow itself was very sensitive, and its sense of smell was even more terrifying.
As long as there was any sign of trouble nearby, it would be able to detect it immediately.
Not to mention that now Big Yellow had broken through to the Spirit General rank, its alertness was even greater than Zhou Feng’s.
Thus, with Big Yellow protecting him, he entered closed-door cultivation with complete peace of mind.
‘It’s still better to make spirit incense first.’
Zhou Feng took the Whale King Musk and the various items he had exchanged for out of his storage ring.
As this was his first time making incense, he wasn’t very familiar with it.
But it didn’t matter. He just needed to knead everything together according to a fixed ratio.
Although the effect would be slightly worse, it was still better than directly burning the Whale King Musk.
Soon, Zhou Feng created the first incense stick.
During this process, he had even triggered the pa.s.sive Skill Proficiency.
His entire person seemed to receive the deities’ help as the spirit incense that he produced was pretty decent.
“Perfect!”
Zhou Feng immediately lit up the spirit incense.
In an instant, a faint fragrance began to spread out.
That faint fragrance slowly rose, but it did not dissipate and remained floating around Zhou Feng
He closed his eyes at the first moment and began to try to travel through the great void.
Compared to the last time, he could feel that the effect of the spirit incense this time was slightly better.
Although the effect did not increase much, this spirit incense was much more resistant to burning than the Whale King Musk.
Once again, Zhou Feng felt as if his entire body was immersed in the boundless void.
Strands of Great Void Primordial Qi shuttled through his nascent soul, and the Great Void Dao began to illuminate in his heart.
The great void was formless, the true form of energy. It gathered and dispersed, transforming into a vague form. Zhou Feng actually comprehended a bit of the Great Void Dao in an instant.
Then, his physical body began to condense a strand of Great Void Primordial Qi. Whether it was Blood Qi or Spiritual Qi, they were devoured to produce a strand of Great Void Primordial Qi. But this strand of Great Void Primordial Qi was very difficult to transform.
The speed of the transformation was also very fixed.
Even when the Whale King Spirit Incense was burnt out, not a single strand of it was formed.
“What a pity!”
Zhou Feng slowly opened his eyes, somewhat regretful.
It was a pity that until the end, he had not succeeded in condensing a strand of the Great Void Primordial Qi.
If he could condense a strand of Great Void Primordial Qi, it meant that he had comprehended the Great Void Primordial Art.
With this, he could break through to the Divine Ability realm.
As expected, it was not so easy to break through to the Divine Ability realm.
Moreover, once the Whale King Spirit Incense was burnt out, his progress would be like a crawling turtle’s pace.
At this speed, he would probably need some time before he could officially step through the door.
“Fortunately, the Whale King Musk is still enough. It should be able to support me to break through to the Divine Ability realm!’
Soul traveling to the great void was a great drain on one’s essence, energy, and spirit.
After experiencing this soul travel to the great void, he still needed to rest for a few more days before he could continue.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Zhou Feng planned to fish properly.
This Celestial Lake had quite a number of spirit fish. He wondered if his pa.s.sive Fisherman would work or not.
As soon as dawn broke, Zhou Feng brought Big Yellow out of the cave.
He was holding a newly made fishing rod in his hand.
“Big Yellow, let’s go. It’s time to fish!”
Compared to Celestial Lake City, he was very relaxed at this time. He didn’t feel as restrained as before.
The Celestial Lake was boundless.
Zhou Feng walked along the sh.o.r.e for some distance and soon noticed other cultivators that were fishing.
Zhou Feng’s appearance naturally attracted the attention of quite a few cultivators.
This was because the cultivation level that Zhou Feng displayed wasn’t low; he was a peak Purple Mansion cultivator.
Although this sort of cultivation level wasn’t considered much in Celestial Lake City, it was considered quite high here.
“This person… The yellow wolf next to him is also at the Spirit General rank!”
“Don’t bother. If he dares to come and take our land, we’ll take action. We don’t need to bother if he doesn’t obstruct us!”
“Let’s not cause any more trouble!” III
A few people whispered to each other, looking at Zhou Feng with a hint of wariness in their eyes.
During this process, Zhou Feng also observed how these people fished. He could tell that these people were all experienced.
After a while, he found that the fishing rod in his hand seemed to be a joke.
These people were all holding 1-meter-long spiritual harpoons, and a thick hemp rope was tied behind them.
At this time, Zhou Feng remembered that this world was not like the one in his previous life.
The fish in this world were all extremely powerful, and some of them could even reach the Spirit King rank.
Just by relying on the fishing rod in his hand, he was afraid that it would break with a pull.
It was a mistake!
Before making a move, he had to observe how the others did it.
He slowly walked forward, and from a relatively far position, he began to observe how the cultivators actually fished.
