Chapter 102: Point Limit
Ji Yang’s action silenced the other disciples, who had initially wanted to observe the fishing rod.
They abandoned their original thoughts.
However, some disciples still wanted to give it a try.
“Tap, tap, tap!”
Just as Ji Yang focused on adjusting his breathing, a slow and rhythmic sound of footsteps approached.
Along with it came a light fragrance.
Ji Yang frowned slightly and looked up. A beautiful female cultivator walked gracefully towards him, wearing a gentle smile on her delicate face.
Her bright smile captivated the other disciples, leaving them in awe, lost in their thoughts.
The female cultivator wore the inner sect disciple’s attire, adorned with the Wangxia Peak insignia, and her Late Stage of Foundation Establishment cultivation level clearly indicated she was not an ordinary disciple, as evidenced by the admiration and slight fear from the others.
“Senior Brother Ji, junior sister Yan Yan would like to see that fishing rod. She promises to return it after having a look.”
After saying this, the female cultivator displayed a pitiable expression that was hard to refuse.
Many of the disciples felt their hearts race at the sight; they were cultivators, but that didn’t mean they were immune to beautiful women, especially when their own cultivation was lacking and their minds unstable.
Moreover, this Yan Yan junior sister was stunning, gaining many admirers in the sect, and it was said that the young man from earlier was one of her obsessed followers.
Some disciples speculated that the young man’s attempt to get the fishing rod was not just for himself but also for the purpose of borrowing flowers to offer to Buddha.
While Ji Yang was about to respond to the others, the young man sitting on the ground couldn’t hold back and stood up:
“Yan Yan junior sister, please do not disturb Senior Brother Ji’s training!”
“This item is prone to Heavenly punishment; I suggest you do not look at it!”
The young man had a serious expression.
The female cultivator across from him scoffed dismissively:
“Zuo Feng, what does this have to do with you? I came to see Senior Brother Ji!”
“Whatever concerns Senior Brother Ji is also my concern! Please return, junior sister!”
The young man blocked her path, which made the female cultivator’s expression darken.
Zuo Feng had always treated her with respect; just earlier, he had stepped up on her behalf, but now he not only failed to get the fishing rod but also dared to refuse her on behalf of Senior Brother Ji?
The admirer turned against her!
Yan Yan snorted coldly. Zuo Feng remained unmoved, still standing in front of her.
Seeing that Ji Yang also showed no sign of willingness to lend the rod, which clearly meant he wouldn’t let her take a look, Yan Yan felt very angry inside but had to retreat to maintain her composure.
Watching the female cultivator walk away, Zuo Feng sighed.
He had talent and a small reputation among the inner disciples, but he didn’t put in a lot of effort into his training; otherwise, he wouldn’t still be at the Late Stage of Foundation Establishment after forty years.
As for Yan Yan junior sister, she had always held a special place in his heart.
Wanting to get the fishing rod was not just for himself; being able to help Yan Yan junior sister would be the best outcome.
However, after experiencing the previous moment of ascension, Zuo Feng happily realized that his previous thoughts were rather narrow-minded.
When it comes to matters of love, how can they compare to the path of eternal life?
Rather than turning into a mound of yellow earth after hundreds of years, it is better to seize the present and work hard on cultivation!
Moreover, he had pursued this Yan Yan junior sister for a long time, yet they had not even touched hands. Now Zuo Feng had fully understood and felt even more grateful to Ji Yang.
Ji Yang observed Zuo Feng’s fluctuating emotions, occasionally tinged with sadness, and found his expression strange, unsure of what Zuo Feng was thinking.
Earlier, he had simply infused the characteristics of his Techniques into the Thousands of Sword Energies he unleashed, which left Zuo Feng unable to counter and resulted in a decisive strike.
However, based on Zuo Feng’s demeanor at that moment, it clearly had a significant impact, even if Ji Yang was unaware of what images Zuo Feng had conjured in his imagination.
The effectiveness of the Feather Transformation Ascension Skill seemed to be stronger than Ji Yang had anticipated, though perhaps Zuo Feng’s cultivation level was intrinsically lower.
Yet at critical moments, it could yield great results.
Currently, Zuo Feng was helping him by blocking the female cultivator, which evened things out.
Ji Yang continued to restore his primordial spirit energy.
The next day, dawn arrived.
Ji Yang walked towards the fishing platform with a calm expression, though he felt somewhat troubled inside.
The recovery of his primordial spirit energy was slower than he had imagined; after resting a night, he had only regained about seventy percent of it.
This meant he would have considerably less time for fishing today.
When Ji Yang arrived at his familiar fishing spot, the old man had already begun fishing from the platform.
He quickly pulled up a spiritual fish.
However, upon seeing Ji Yang approaching, the old man’s expression became much darker.
“Senior Brother Mei, good morning!”
Ji Yang greeted him with a smile, grateful for the old man’s guidance, which greatly hastened his progress in cultivation.
Sitting behind the fishing platform, Ji Yang cast the old man’s three original baits once again, then attached a Yun Ling Dan and sank the fishing rod into the water.
As Ji Yang hooked his line, the lake’s surface in front of the old man once again settled into tranquil calm.
The old man thought about changing spots but remembered that he had always let others change; he had never been one to switch locations.
He widened his eyes, staring at the lake, determined to catch a spiritual fish next to Ji Yang!
After thinking for a moment, the old man gritted his teeth and replaced the bait with the superior Three-Pattern Spirit Cleansing Dan, a high-quality pill that had a strong effect on both spiritual beasts and spiritual fish, far surpassing the Fish Spirit Dan he had used yesterday.
Not long after he tossed the Three-Pattern Spirit Cleansing Dan into the lake, the surface began to churn with waves.
The old man revealed a hint of confident joy at the sight.
At that moment, Ji Yang had already pulled up his rod, reeling in a twenty-some-pound spiritual fish.
Ji Yang shook his head slightly, looking somewhat dissatisfied.
Based on his experience, this spiritual fish only produced green light points.
Seeing Ji Yang catch a fish yet remain unsatisfied made the old man seethe with anger.
But gazing at the calm lake in front of him, he couldn’t help but feel perplexed.
Could one Three-Pattern Spirit Cleansing Dan truly be inferior to a single Yun Ling Dan?
Mid-tier Spiritual Plants +1
Ji Yang collected the light points and spiritual fish before attaching another pill and casting his line again.
On this side, Ji Yang occasionally reeled in a spiritual fish, expressing his disappointment whenever the size was not suitable.
Meanwhile, the old man’s face had turned as dark as charcoal.
What was wrong with his pills?
The old man felt inclined to ask Ji Yang for a pill to see the effect, but that would undoubtedly be too degrading, so he suppressed the thought and quietly chanted:
“I cannot see, cannot see!”
Power +1
Cultivation Points +1
Physique +1
…
Watching his cultivation points steadily rise, Ji Yang felt delighted.
Though the items he caught were random, the harvest was still fairly good; at least he never came back with an empty rod.
The only downside was that his primordial spirit energy was somewhat lacking!
In this way, they fished for several hours, with cultivation points growing slowly and steadily, but his primordial spirit energy was close to being exhausted.
At this moment, his cultivation points had reached a total of 99, nearing the limit.
He just needed to fish one more spiritual fish with blue light points to know what would happen after reaching 99 points!
This would also determine his future plans.
