You practice immortality, I farm 2

Chapter 898 Necessary Steps for Fishing

Following the guidance of the middle-aged cultivator, Lu Xuan controlled the sword light and went down along the Qianbao True River.

Along the way, it was just as Shi Zichen said, not every river bank could be used to fish for treasures. Only in some special places could monks fish quietly.

During this period, he met more than ten Jindan cultivators, and there was also a group of several cultivators wearing standard robes gathered together. It was obvious that they were from famous and upright sects.

When everyone saw Lu Xuan, they either glanced at him curiously or stared at him warily. Of course, most of their attention was still on the fishing rods in their hands.

When Lu Xuan arrived near his destination, his attention was attracted by a simple wooden house.

There is a wooden door on the side of the wooden house facing the Zhen River. There is a hazy light at the door, and there seems to be a different world inside.

"It should be right here."

Lu Xuan secretly guessed based on the distance. He gently came to the front of the wooden house, scanned the surroundings with his spiritual sense, and after confirming that there was nothing unusual, he spoke out loud.

"Fish shop owner, I am Lu Xuan, a junior, and I am here to buy a set of fishing tools. Please forgive me if I have disturbed you."

"Come in." A short and hoarse voice sounded in Lu Xuan's ears.

He passed through the hazy light and saw a spacious house that was much larger than what he saw from the outside.

The house was decorated very simply, with more than a dozen wooden shelves placed randomly, and various fishing-related treasures on the shelves.

"It looks like this wooden house is a space treasure, somewhat similar to the Thousand Machine House."

Lu Xuan secretly looked at everything inside the wooden house.

In the inner part, he found the figure of a thin old man.

The old man's cheeks were sunken and wrinkled, and he looked very ordinary. His bony fingers were wiping a bone fish hook.

But appearing near such a magical place as the Void Thousand Treasures River is not an ordinary thing.

Lu Xuan immediately knew the other party's identity.

"Junior has met the fish shop owner."

He bowed respectfully.

The thin old man seemed not to hear his words. He continued to wipe the fishhook as if no one was around, looking at it carefully, as if the fishhook was a rare treasure in his eyes.

Long before coming here, Lu Xuan had learned about the owner's personality from Shi Zichen, so he didn't care and just looked around.

"Pick it up yourself."

"No counteroffer."

He noticed a wooden sign on one side of the wooden frame with some large, scrawled words on it.

"The Black Yao Spiritual Pole... 180,000 low-grade spirit stones? Why don't you just go and rob them?"

The first thing Lu Xuan found was a black obsidian spirit pole, which was 70% similar to the one in Shi Zichen's hand, with some minor differences. Both were made of black obsidian spirit ore.

"A fishing rod that is mainly used to fish for treasures is priced so high!"

"One hundred and eighty thousand low-grade spirit stones. This level is already higher than many magical instruments of the same rank."

Lu Xuan was secretly amazed, and once again realized how wealthy and generous the fisherman was.

The price of this fifth-grade Wu Yao spirit rod was barely at the top among all the fishing rods. Lu Xuan also noticed that there were several sixth-grade fishing rods, all of which were priced no less than 300,000 low-grade spirit stones.

This made him sigh at the huge profits of this store.

He just wanted to give it a try, so he set his sights on those third- and fourth-grade fishing rods.

"Black Jade Spiritual Rod, fourth grade, forged from black jade bamboo, hard and tough, can catch fifth grade spiritual fish and monsters, priced at 20,000 low grade spiritual stones."

"Qingling Stone Pole, Rank Four, forged from a large amount of Qingling Stone Spiritual Ore. When paired with the Qingling Hook, it can emit a faint Qingling aura, which can effectively drive away some evil spirits and monsters in the area near the water. There is a certain probability that it can attract treasures of the same category. The selling price is 26,000 low-grade spirit stones."

"Thunder Lightning Spiritual Rod, third grade, can emit a special vibration thunderous sound, which can increase the possibility of catching thunder-attributed spiritual fish monsters. The price is 15,000 low-grade spiritual stones." "..."

Lu Xuan hesitated for a moment, and finally set his eyes on the black jade spirit pole.

The price of this fourth-grade fishing rod is more acceptable to him than other spiritual rods, and it is more suitable for experiments.

More importantly, the fishing rod was forged from fourth-grade black jade bamboo. If he was interested in cultivating similar spiritual bamboo in the future, he could consider including it in the planting range.

"Ice silk is made from the spiritual silk spit out by a large number of third-grade ice silkworms. It can withstand the impact of a fifth-grade monster beast in a short period of time. The longer the time, the greater the possibility of breaking."

"Agarwood hook, a fourth-grade fish hook, made from agarwood that has been polished for a long time. It is very tempting to many species of spiritual fish and water beasts, and can make them lose their minds in an instant."

Lu Xuan observed for a while, and after a moment, he selected the fishing line and hook.

The fishing line was a large ball of third-grade ice silk, which was sold for eight thousand lower-grade spirit stones.

The fish hook is made of agarwood. It is not sharp enough, but it has its own unique features. It is sold for 15,000 pieces of low-grade spirit stones.

Finally, he spent another 10,000 low-grade spirit stones, bought a box of the most common fishing bait, and came to the thin old man.

"Senior Yu, I have selected four treasures, namely the black jade spirit pole, ice silk, agarwood hook and a box of ordinary bait."

Lu Xuan did not dare to hide anything in front of Yuanying Zhenjun and told the truth.

"Here are 530 mid-grade spirit stones. Please have a look, Senior."

He took out a pile of mid-grade spirit stones that were glowing with spiritual light and placed them in front of the thin old man.

"Yes."

The fish shop owner didn't even turn his head and continued to wipe the bone fish hook in his hand.

The pile of mid-grade spirit stones in front of him disappeared quietly, and no one knew where they entered some spatial treasure.

"Junior, take your leave."

Seeing this, Lu Xuan bowed and left with some fishing tools.

"It's a good fishing embryo."

After his figure disappeared, the thin old man raised his head, looked in the direction where Lu Xuan left with his cloudy eyes, and sighed softly.

Lu Xuan was completely unaware of this and quickly rushed to Shi Zichen's location with the four treasures.

"The basic tools alone cost more than 50,000 low-grade spirit stones. Fishing in the Thousand Treasures River is a bottomless pit."

He sighed secretly.

Since it was just an experiment, the tools he chose were all of medium and low quality. But even so, it cost a lot of spirit stones. How staggering would the expenses be for those senior monks who stayed on the river bank for a long time.

"Fishing for treasures can add some fun to the farming life in Canque Cave Heaven."

"Of course, it's also to verify a guess in my mind."

"The first step in fishing is to attract strange creatures such as spirit fish and water beasts and make them swallow the bait."

"This is a necessary step, and it also completes the breeding process."

"Perhaps, I can understand what exactly bit the fishhook through the fishing rod, fishing line, and the extremely terrifying water of Qianbaozhen River?"

"If it's feasible, it would be a big advantage for me."

Lu Xuan thought secretly in his heart that he didn't need spiritual awareness, he only needed to use his mind to investigate and he would know what he had caught.

Then, some risks brought by demons and evil spirits can be avoided. At the same time, targeted baits can be provided according to the preferences of spiritual fish, water beasts, monsters and alien species, so as to catch them easily.
