Chapter 108: The Hook is Set
This confirmed its safety!
At that moment, it could no longer resist the allure of the Seven-Leaf Soul Flower.
After taking a few deep inhalations, a look of determination appeared in its eyes, and without hesitation, it bit down on the Seven-Leaf Soul Flower, swallowing it whole.
After consuming the petal from the fishing line, the young dragon attempted to retreat.
But Ji Yang, sensing the extreme pull of the primordial spirit line, suddenly stood firm, pouring primordial spirit energy into the causal fishing rod without hesitation.
With ample primordial spirit energy, the formerly thin primordial spirit line instantly thickened.
The young dragon, which had intended to bite and retreat, found itself tangled in the suddenly much stronger primordial spirit line, causing its initially powerful struggle to falter.
Moments ago, it had used all its strength to escape, but unfortunately, Ji Yang reacted even faster—it had made a critical mistake!
Caught in the primordial spirit line, the young dragon’s eyes filled with urgency and anger.
How could the force it felt suddenly become so strong?
The young dragon let out a pained cry, producing unique sounds that resembled those of an eagle, a cow, and a tiger…
As the sounds echoed, intense waves rippled through the void space.
Even the primordial spirit line could not help but tremble slightly, showing signs of dissipating.
Seeing this, the young dragon cried out even harder, attempting to break free from the pull of the primordial spirit line.
But Ji Yang was fully exerting himself with the causal fishing rod, and the primordial spirit line had thickened significantly, rendering the young dragon’s sound wave attack ineffective against the source of the fishing line.
On the other side, sensing that something was wrong, Ji Yang generously increased his primordial spirit output.
As long as he could catch that thing, everything would be worth it!
With Ji Yang’s full effort, the fishing line swiftly pulled back, bringing the young dragon along with it, leaving behind lingering echoes.
Noticing that the struggles of the opposing side were weakening, Ji Yang summoned even more strength, forming a perfect arc with the causal fishing rod, as if it might snap at any moment.
Yet the rod shone with a brilliant green light, maintaining its current state.
As an Ancient magical tool, even if Ji Yang did not use True Essence, the rod would not break.
But if he did not continuously output True Essence, it might be Ji Yang who got pulled over, losing the dominant position.
Many disciples, seeing the scene unfold, gathered around.
Due to Ji Yang’s Heavenly punishment attribute boost, numerous disciples dared not approach too closely and could only observe eagerly from a distance, waiting for the underwater creature to reveal itself.
Besides, Ji Yang was using the fabled causal fishing rod said to have an ominous omen!
“I wonder what Senior Brother Ji is fishing for this time?”
“I think there’s a high probability it’s a spiritual fish weighing about a hundred pounds! This type of spiritual fish, while only about a hundred pounds, possesses considerable intelligence and can wield spells, making it incredibly strong in the water.”
“No, no, no! I think it might be an ancient strange aquatic beast. Did you see the flush on Senior Brother Ji’s face? It shows that whatever he’s caught is not ordinary.”
“Is it possible it’s a True Spirit?” one newcomer disciple asked curiously.
“Hmm!”
Many people erupted in laughter.
Someone explained,
“Junior Brother, you are really overthinking it. True Spirits are born extraordinary; ordinary beings, under normal circumstances, have a Foundation Establishment stage realm! They can master corresponding spells and possess immense strength. Even cultivators in higher realms may not be able to defeat them!”
“If it’s a True Spirit, Senior Brother Ji should be in the lake now!”
“Hmm, this senior brother speaks wisely!”
Others nodded in agreement after hearing this.
This left the newcomer disciple with a hint of embarrassment on his face; he had indeed thought too much.
Since coming to Tianxing Lake, he had been wanting to learn some fishing skills from a senior brother. He initially aimed to approach Senior Brother Mei.
But Senior Brother Mei never responded, leaving him with no choice. Recently, he had turned his attention to Ji Yang and had been observing him for quite some time.
However, seeing this Senior Brother Ji easily catch a spiritual fish weighing dozens of pounds daily, he noticed that today he was unusually cautious, clearly indicating something extraordinary was happening.
This sparked even more curiosity within him!
As the resistance from the other side intensified, even with Ji Yang’s full primordial spirit energy and constantly urging the causal fishing rod in his hand, he still could not pull it back immediately, only retrieving the line at a rather slow pace.
The loud discussions attracted many disciples who were still cultivating.
The crowd around them grew larger, yet no one approached Ji Yang.
Even by Senior Brother Mei’s side stood several disciples, but seeing Senior Brother Mei’s grim expression, they dared not come too close.
Watching Ji Yang struggle with the rod, an elderly man looked puzzled. A glimmer of invisible light sparkled in his eyes as he peered into the water, trying to follow the direction of Ji Yang’s fishing line.
Unfortunately, the distance was too great for him to see clearly.
But from what he knew, Ji Yang was incredibly strong; why was it still taking so long?
Feeling his True Essence and primordial spirit energy rapidly depleting, Ji Yang’s gaze sharpened.
If it took too long, the creature on the other side might break free.
At this moment, Ji Yang could no longer afford to slowly retrieve the line; he gathered all his strength and pulled with all his might.
As his internal strength and primordial spirit energy erupted, wisps of mist and waves formed in the water.
This scene made the observing disciples step back slightly, their eyes filled with surprise.
Such an anomaly could be an ancient wonder!
As the mist rose, Ji Yang was pulling with all his strength.
In the next moment, the creature in the water suddenly broke free and emerged at the surface of Tianxing Lake.
As the creature broke free, a cloud of mist appeared in the sky above Tianxing Lake.
This caused many disciples to exclaim,
“What is that?”
“I see a flash of golden light!!”
“It’s definitely a wondrous item!”
…
Many people only caught a glimpse of a light gold shadow, but they could not see its true form, and from their quick looks, they couldn’t determine what it was!
The tense and exciting atmosphere urged everyone to lean closer, eager to learn more.
Some disciples even forgot about Ji Yang’s Heavenly punishment attribute and chose to observe nearby!
Those who came closer were mostly fishermen who had been training their minds through cultivation and were now entranced!
Even if they weren’t the ones fishing, witnessing this scene was still a great joy in their cultivation journey.
As the creature broke the surface of the water, the old man beside them looked astonished and murmured,
“True Spirit?”
Then the old man took out a messaging talisman without hesitation and whispered a few words before calmly continuing to fish.
When Ji Yang finally pulled the creature out of the water, he felt an overwhelming aura surging along the primordial spirit line, but it did not significantly suppress him.
He thought he had finished fishing, but then Ji Yang discovered that the creature began to fly into the air.
Moreover, it seemed to possess even greater strength than it had in the water, leaving him wondering what he had actually caught!
As the mist spread, Ji Yang managed a quick glance, but as he reeled the line back in, the light in his eyes grew even brighter.
At the end of the fishing rod, a faint golden light point was starting to form!
