"Is it...is it that serious?"
Bibi Dong found it a bit unbelievable. She also ate it. Although it was indeed spicy, it shouldn't be to the point that she had to worry about going to the toilet, right?
Little did people know that with the blessing of a divine beast, her physique was far superior to that of ordinary people, and naturally she could withstand much greater pressure.
Although Ghost possesses the Hades Martial Soul, she ultimately could not escape the limitations of a Soul Master. At most, she is among the super geniuses of Soul Masters. She can no longer be considered an ordinary Soul Master, but rather a candidate for godhood!
"It seems that I should serve mildly spicy food to guests in the future, otherwise the experience won't be very good."
Watching the struggling ghosts, Su Ze seemed to be deep in thought. He then walked to the super refrigerator, took out an ice bead, and handed it to the ghost:
"If you hold this in your mouth, it might help a little."
Only Xiao Wu: Kill him with spiciness! Kill him with spiciness! How dare he eat Rabbit Mom! She's turning evil!
Chapter 41 Fishing for the Azure Bull Python, the Rabbit and Snake Gazing at Each Other in Silence.
After the rabbit feast, night fell, and we drifted off to sleep.
The following day at noon, after lunch, Bibi Dong and Gui Mei were both consolidating their realms. Both of them had increased their soul power by more than ten levels in a short period of time, and it would take them a few days to adapt.
The best way is actually through combat, which helps the soul power within the body circulate.
Su Ze, on the other hand, took a short rest.
He quickly prepared a completely black fishing rod and a fish basket, and found a few 'lucky' golden-ringed earthworms in the vegetable garden. Most of the earthworms had four or six golden rings and a few silver rings on their bodies. They were smooth all over and did not look disgusting. In fact, they were quite appetizing.
If Su Ze hadn't been so well-off with vegetables, he probably would have already come up with the idea of stir-frying lizards.
At this moment, Su Ze prepared to complete the remaining task for the day:
[Lake Fishing: Find a suitable lake and fish out one or more Soul Beasts. Reward: 500 Pure Soul Power, 10 Super Tungsten Wires.]
The rewards for the previous mission to clear the manor and escape the beasts have arrived in his account. Well, the boost from that soul power was like a drop of water entering a vast ocean, so Su Ze didn't feel much of it.
But Su Ze firmly believed that little by little, as long as he persevered, one day, these pure soul energies would undergo an earth-shattering transformation in him!
"Dong'er, Ghost Butler, I'm going fishing this afternoon. Please keep an eye on the house."
"Maybe we'll have fish to eat when we get back tonight."
"Take me with you, Brother Su Ze?!" Bibi Dong asked expectantly.
Su Ze shook his head: "You're too lively. You can't stand the boredom and loneliness of fishing. You should stay in the manor and spar with the Ghost Butler about the way of the Soul Master."
"How will I know I can't stand it if I don't try? Humph!"
Bibi Dong pouted and snorted. She probably only showed such an expression when facing someone she trusted, like Su Ze.
Su Ze had already walked away in the blink of an eye.
Bring Dong'er along? That little girl is so lively and energetic, are you kidding me?
If you bring her along, you might fish for half a day and catch nothing at all; the fish will be scared away as soon as they take the bait!
Having already given the golden revolver to Bibi Dong, he wasn't worried about any spirit beasts in the manor that could harm them.
So he left the manor with peace of mind and headed southeast. Su Ze walked calmly, treating it as a stroll. After about an hour, he entered a forest and arrived at a lake.
This lake is none other than Xinghu Lake.
Last time, Su Ze followed the soul beast locator here and happened to know the way. Moreover, this lake is very large, and there must be a lot of delicious fish in it!
If you fish with a calm mind, you will definitely have a good catch!
The area is lush with greenery, and the forest is filled with fresh air.
The lake is over a hundred meters or a kilometer in diameter, and its clear water is like a mirror, reflecting the green trees on both sides, creating a natural and refreshing scene.
Su Ze sat calmly under the shade of a tree, baited the hook, cast it into the lake, then closed his eyes to rest and quietly waited for the fish to bite.
The fishing hook sank deeper and deeper into the abyss at the bottom of the lake, where there was a much more expansive space that nurtured a large number of powerful soul beasts.
At the bottom of Star Lake, a group of ten-thousand-year-old soul beasts swam around, including ancestral carp, star snakes, and ten-thousand-year-old lake turtles. They swallowed hard as they looked at the silver-ringed earthworm bait floating above their heads, which exuded a strong cultivation aura.
Only with these can spirit beasts understand how to communicate through vibrations and chirps:
"Look! What's that?!"
"A tonic for hundreds of thousands of years of cultivation!"
"Holy crap, this thing looks just like animal marrow, all translucent and looks like it'll burst with juice in your mouth!"
"I want to eat! I want to eat!"
"Wait, I think I've seen this person before?"
"It's him? The one who beat the golden badger yesterday, making it willingly crawl into a sack!"
"What's he doing here again? Is this never going to end?"
"Are they trying to lure us in?!"
"What should we do? Should we eat it or not?"
"Eat? You want him to force you to reveal your true form, lock you in a fish basket, and face a near-death experience?"
"If I don't eat it, this super nourishing food is right in front of me, and I'm really tempted. I really can't bear to part with it!"
"That's at least a hundred thousand years of cultivation!"
A soul beast's cultivation level depends on self-cultivation, accumulating over age, and also on devouring other creatures. However, a soul beast will experience a loss of soul power when it devours other creatures.
Therefore, even though this silver-ringed earthworm clearly had a cultivation of five or six hundred thousand years, it was already quite good that it could gain a cultivation increase of one hundred thousand years after being devoured and absorbed by other soul beasts.
"Damn it, I have to eat this! My cultivation level will skyrocket! It'll be equivalent to tens of thousands of years of cultivation! This is awesome!"
"But... there's also the risk of getting caught..."
"Let me think about it some more."
"..."
And so, all the fish in Star Lake gathered around the fishhook. They were no ordinary soul beasts, so how could they be caught so easily?
They were all licking the fish with their mouths open, but unfortunately, fish tongues aren't long enough, so their licking skills were terrible.
However, some lake snakes, flicking their tongues, these stick-shaped creatures are always highly skilled. They licked the silver-ringed earthworm from head to toe, but just wouldn't take the bait.
Fishing at Xinghu Lake, from dawn till dusk, another ordinary day passes by.
As the sun began to set, Su Ze sighed, "Sigh, as expected of a soul beast, it's really cunning. It's watching, but it just won't take the bait."
"Add more bait, add more bait, wait another hour, if there are still no fish biting, then give up and go home to prepare dinner."
Su Ze then took out four more silver ring earthworms. Although they had been torn in half, they were extremely resilient and were still moving until they were stuck on the fishhook, at which point they gave up struggling.
Earthworm, it's all over today!
boo~
With a sound similar to sucking a mouthpiece, Su Ze cast the fishing hook into the lake, and after a ripple, it sank.
The spirit beasts in the lake immediately erupted in excitement:
"Soul power! Such rich soul power!"
"Double the reward, how exciting!"
"If I eat these four pieces, won't I instantly become the overlord of Star Lake?!"
"I can't hold back anymore, I really can't hold back anymore!"
A ancestral carp with nearly 60,000 years of cultivation sent out a message: "After devouring these two silver-ringed earthworms, I should be able to break through to 300,000 years of cultivation directly. At that time, who can compete with me in this Star Lake? Even the Azure Bull Python is nothing! Ahahaha!"
"Look at these four sections of silver-ringed earthworm. They're so big, tender, moist, and smooth. Who could resist them? I want some too!"
The sight of the four-sectioned silver-ringed earthworm descending into the lake certainly made many spirit beasts' hearts flutter.
Each segment can grant them tens of thousands of years... or even greater cultivation.
For soul beasts, this not only means they can gain greater strength, but also longer lifespan!
Just as these ancient soul beasts in the lake were getting restless, a bull's head emerged from a stone cave at the bottom of the lake and let out a moo, which immediately frightened all the soul beasts into fleeing.
The bull's head was at least four meters in diameter, and its large eyes, like two lanterns, shone brightly.
What connects to this giant body is not the body of a bull, but a huge snake body that is blackish-blue and several times thicker than a water vat.
Who else could this be but the Azure Ox Python of the Great Ming Dynasty?!
It is the overlord of Star Lake, with over 100,000 years of cultivation!
The Azure Bull Python was tempted by the bouncy, lively earthworm bait.
After a soul beast has cultivated for 100,000 years, it must undergo a heavenly tribulation within 1,000 years, or it will die.
The Heavenly Tribulation was created by the God Realm to upgrade soul beasts, so soul beasts cannot exist under the Heavenly Tribulation.
Only soul beasts with extremely high cultivation levels, exceptionally strong physical bodies, and exceptionally good fortune can overcome the Heavenly Tribulation and complete their transformation.
Well, if one lived in the Leisurely Manor, there would be no worries about heavenly tribulations.
Even the Azure Bull Python, one of the kings and elders of the Star Dou Great Forest, was not confident that it could safely survive the Heavenly Tribulation.
But if it could devour this highly nourishing substance—the silver-ringed earthworm—which perfectly complements its constitution, wouldn't its cultivation level increase by 1000+1000+1000+...?
"Earthworm, since we're all going to die anyway, why not grant my wish?"
"In order to defeat that golden badger and rescue Sister Xiaowu and Aunt Rou, I must withstand the heavenly tribulation and become a 200,000-year-old soul beast, a 300,000-year-old... a 500,000-year-old... and eat it!"
"Awoo~"
The Azure Bull Python couldn't resist the temptation, but it didn't want to be lured away by the boy. Besides, how much strength could a human have? How dare he come to Star Lake to fish? He was simply courting death. After I finish eating this earthworm, I'll go out and eat him!
"Well?"
Right after biting down, the Azure Bull Python sensed something was wrong.
The fishing line seemed to have a suction force; once it bit into it, it couldn't let go!
Moreover, the moment it was hooked, it actually degenerated into its original form and reverted to its true form!
At that moment, a tigerfish with higher cultivation and greater courage used the communication method between soul beasts:
"Brother Da Ming! It's him! He's the one who fished this human! He's the one who kidnapped Sister Xiao Wu and Aunt Rou! Oh, and he even beat that golden badger to a pulp!"
