Above the clouds, there was a floating island.
On the island, golden light spread, coating the entire island with a layer of golden light.
In the center of the island, an old man with white hair and beard retracted his palm with a pleasantly surprised expression.
“Haha, Senior has agreed to give me an opportunity! That’s great. If my luck is good this time, my strength will definitely improve!”
The old man’s face was filled with a smile. With a casual wave of his hand, the golden light on the island instantly dissipated. He held a jade bamboo fishing rod and a small bamboo basket. He slowly walked to the side of a pool and began to fish.
Although this pool was not big, it was actually a supreme treasure given to him by Emperor Cang more than 10,000 eras ago. It was said that the bottom of the pool could connect to the myriad worlds. As long as he was lucky enough, he could obtain various opportunities from the myriad worlds below!
He had also relied on this pool to break through to the Third Revolution Saint Realm in just 10,000 eras.
Above Heaven Splitting were Saints.
Saints could fuse with the world and control the will of a world. They were true supreme experts.
Any Saint, even the weakest Saint, could tear through hundreds of layers of s.p.a.ce with a raise of his hand.
Such strength was countless times stronger than a peak ninth level Heaven Splitting expert!
That was because every additional layer of s.p.a.ce that was torn apart was not a simple overlay of strength. With every additional layer of s.p.a.ce torn apart, the difference in strength between the two was at least two times.
In other words, if he wanted to tear through 100 layers of s.p.a.ce, the power he needed was 2^90 times that of tearing through 10 layers of s.p.a.ce. Such an order of magnitude was enough to show the existence of a Saint. How terrifying was that?
And a Third Revolution Sage could easily tear through 300 layers of s.p.a.ce. Such strength was countless times stronger than a First Revolution Sage.
Therefore, in terms of strength, this old man was enough to be called one of the strongest in the world.
Of course, he didn’t care about this. More than 10,000 eras had pa.s.sed since he left the mortal world, and the current him had a clear heart and few desires, and he focused on pursuing the Dao.
As for the disputes in the mortal world, what did they have to do with him?
“Hehe, I’d better fish in peace. Perhaps I’ll catch a supreme treasure once I’m done fishing. Then my strength will rise to another level.”
The corners of the old man’s mouth curled up and he closed his eyes. His entire body seemed to have fused with the surrounding world. Every breath seemed to contain the truth of the world, making one yearn for it.
“I wonder how long it will take for me to gain something this time. Hmm… the last time I caught something was 500 years ago. I hope I’m lucky this time.”
The old man closed his eyes and fell silent.
However, a moment later, ripples suddenly appeared on the surface, and water splashed.
“Eh, this… How is this possible?!”
The old man in plain clothes opened his eyes. In his pupils, it was as if the sun and moon were spinning and the stars were dissipating.
He stared at the water in disbelief and his mouth could not help but tremble. “Such a big commotion. Looks like it’s a big guy!”
“Hahahaha! Good luck is here! I didn’t expect to obtain such a huge harvest in less than 15 minutes!”
The old man in plain clothes was overjoyed. Even in his fishing career, there were less than five such scenes on the water surface!
Moreover, every time a huge commotion appeared in the pool, it meant that a shocking opportunity had appeared.
If he could grasp the opportunity, he would definitely obtain huge benefits!
Thinking of this, the old man held the fishing rod tightly with both hands and began to exert strength.
“It wasn’t easy for you to take the bait. I can’t let you escape! Haha, struggle hard! The more you struggle, the more excited I am! Hahahaha!”
The plain-clothed old man’s face was filled with excitement.
Such a harvest was hard to find even in a thousand eras. How could such a huge harvest not make him extremely excited?
He had a feeling that his gains this time were definitely unprecedented!
“Perhaps I have a chance of becoming a Fourth Revolution Sage!”
The old man in plain clothes became more and more excited as he grew. His hands that were holding the fishing rod began to exert more strength.
His hands did not have any intention of letting go. He only dragged with all his might!
As for worrying that the fishing line would be torn off?
That was impossible.
This fishing rod was a treasure bestowed by Emperor Cang. Not only was it made of rare materials, but it also contained 36 ancient martial arts marks, which represented the cores of the power of 36 ancient martial arts. Even he himself could not break it, let alone the prey under the pool.
These 36 ancient martial arts marks were extremely powerful even during the ancient martial arts era. Now that billions of eras had pa.s.sed, martial arts had long declined and was not as good as before.
In the current era, other than those peerless ferocious creatures that lived in seclusion, no one could break them!
Not to mention him, even a Seventh Revolution Saint would not be able to do it!
Perhaps only a Ninth Revolution Saint who was only a step away from the legendary Great Dao Realm could resist this supreme treasure.
Of course, it was only a confrontation.
Unless one was the master of the Great Dao Realm, it was absolutely impossible to destroy it.
“I’m a Third Revolution Saint. If you fight with me, you can only ask for trouble!”
The old man grinned. “I want to see how long you can last!”
Then, dazzling golden light lit up on the old man’s body and fused into the Jade Bamboo Fishing Rod in his hand. The fishing rod was stimulated by the old man’s power and its aura became even more majestic!
Under the pool, the hook had already pa.s.sed through layers of s.p.a.ce and appeared in a vast land.
