Chapter 95: Creating a Feeding Spot

Over here, after confirming that there was nothing wrong with his fishing rod, Ji Yang decided to start creating a feeding spot!

Now, Ji Yang had three types of spiritual grains in his hands: Top-quality Spiritual Grains Purple Rice, Black Rock, and supreme spiritual grain “Golden Fruit.”

The first two were abundant in quantity, while the last one was limited to several dozen pounds without any flaws, so it was best to use Purple Rice and Black Rock for the feeding spot.

Ji Yang no longer hesitated, took a handful of Purple Rice from his storage bag, and scattered it over the lake ahead.

The old man beside him noticed Ji Yang creating a feeding spot with great interest and turned to look.

When he saw Ji Yang generously throwing out the Top-quality Spiritual Grains Purple Rice into the lake, his expression paused slightly.

Although Mid-tier Spiritual Plants were more precious than Top-quality Spiritual Grains, the Purple Rice in Ji Yang’s hands seemed to be of good quality.

Using this for a feeding spot was truly wasteful!

But the old man did not say much; the Rouge Fish might not even like this Top-quality Spiritual Grain.

As expected, with Ji Yang pouring out handfuls of Purple Rice, the surface of the lake remained calm, and only occasionally could one see a few spiritual fish swimming in the depths—though it still worked fairly well.

Ji Yang noticed this as well and took out Black Rock from his storage bag.

The Black Rock spiritual grain was deep black in color. Although it was also a top-quality spiritual grain, its taste and effect differed from Purple Rice.

As Ji Yang tossed out handfuls of Black Rock spiritual grains, the number of spiritual fish below gradually increased.

Wasteful!

The old man beside him tightened his grip on the fishing rod!

Yet, Ji Yang still felt it wasn’t enough, so he decided to throw out some of the remaining Golden Fruit spiritual grains too.

With the feeding spot complete, surely one or two fish would bite!

As Ji Yang cast out the Golden Fruit spiritual grains, countless spiritual fish surged beneath the calm surface of the lake, darting around and devouring various types of spiritual grains.

The old man appeared dazed; those were supreme spiritual grains!

Even Golden Core stage cultivators might not get to enjoy them, yet Ji Yang was using them to create a feeding spot!

The old man’s breath quickened, not out of envy, but rather out of anger.

Wasteful!

Seeing that the fish frenzy had reached the level he desired, Ji Yang nodded.

Indeed, supreme spiritual grains were the most effective; if the fish didn’t come soon, he planned to throw in some Yun Ling Dan to test its effect.

Seeing everything ready, Ji Yang attached a Golden Fruit spiritual grain to the hook and cast it into the water.

Next, it was time to wait for the moment to catch a fish.

This time, Ji Yang decided to focus on his primordial spirit energy, feeling the subtle movements from the fishing line and hook.

As the hook sank into the water, the next moment, Ji Yang’s eyes lit up, and he pulled with all his might.

A Rouge Fish weighing about ten pounds hadn’t even had time to resist before Ji Yang lifted it up with brute force.

Seeing this, Ji Yang felt joy; indeed, having guidance from a professional made a difference.

The old man beside him gazed at his still float, lost in thought.

Where Are My Fish?

“Hiss, someone is actually catching fish next to Senior Brother Mei!”

Hearing the commotion, many disciples put down their fishing rods and looked over at Ji Yang with astonished expressions.

Ji Yang removed the fish from the hook and placed it in his Spiritual Beast Bag, casually gathering the Green Light Points attached to the fish hook as well.

Mid-tier Spiritual Plants +1

Seizing the opportunity, while the fish were still around, Ji Yang decisively cast his rod again.

This time, in less than a few seconds, he felt a slight tremor on the fishing line.

Ji Yang quickly lifted the rod, pulling a Red-tailed Spiritual Fish weighing about dozens of pounds out of the water.

Just as Ji Yang was about to reel it in, the big fish leaped into the air, breaking free from the hook, and jumped back into the lake.

“Tsk tsk, what a shame!”

“Yeah! It was almost caught!”

The onlooking disciples murmured in disappointment.

Ji Yang remained unfazed; if it ran away, then so be it. The real pity was that no corresponding light point had appeared.

It seemed he needed to reel it in to collect those points.

The reason he lost the fish just now was that the Red-tailed Spiritual Fish had bitten lightly, and his quick lift made the hook unstable.

It looked like he needed to be more careful next time.

Reeling in the rod, Ji Yang continued to bait and cast the line.

After several casts, Ji Yang found success, with many spiritual fish below, varied in types but different in size, offering different light points.

Agility +1

Constitution +1

Spirit +1

Mid-tier Spiritual Plants +1

Unfortunately, the caught spiritual fish weren’t very big and didn’t provide Ji Yang with any Blue Light Points. Remembering the one that got away, Ji Yang thought that the escaping Red-tailed Spiritual Fish was likely to produce Blue Light Points.

What a pity!

Ji Yang felt regret!

At this moment, the area around him was crowded with other disciples. Some had come to watch because they had insufficient True Essence to control their fishing rods, while others simply wanted to enjoy the excitement.

Seeing Ji Yang consistently catching fish, their expressions were filled with envy. They also noticed that the bait and hooks Ji Yang used seemed truly exceptional.

Especially the fishing line—it didn’t even have a float!

“What about my fish?”

Beside him, Senior Brother Mei looked at the calm surface of the lake, his face full of frustration.

Since Ji Yang started fishing, it seemed like all the fish preferred the supreme spiritual grain instead of his bait, which led to him not catching anything since he cast his rod.

Meanwhile, Ji Yang had already cast his line again.

As the rod and bait hit the water, the fishing line trembled once more.

Focusing intently, Ji Yang quickly lifted the rod again and saw the Red-tailed Spiritual Fish that had just escaped from him.

Realizing it was hooked again, the Red-tailed Spiritual Fish wriggled its body and jumped into the air, seemingly attempting to repeat its earlier trick.

At that moment, many disciples recognized this Red-tailed Spiritual Fish, and one shouted:

“That’s the one! Every time it bites the bait, it has to play with us!”

“The one that just got away was this one too!”

Many disciples were filled with righteous indignation as they looked angrily at the spiritual fish.

But Ji Yang immersed his focus entirely on his fishing rod. This Red-tailed Spiritual Fish was quite clever; as it leaped into the air, it seemed ready to escape the hook again.

Ji Yang frowned slightly, no longer holding back his efforts.

He infused his True Essence into the fishing rod.

The originally unremarkable green fishing rod transformed into a vibrant green with a faint glow as the magical energy surged into it.

The glow ran from the tip to the end of the rod, eventually enveloping both the rod and the hook.

With the entire fishing rod glowing faintly, Ji Yang felt his sensitivity to it heightened significantly; he finally grasped how to use this causal fishing rod!

Rather than relying on mere brute force as before.

Feeling the difference in the fishing rod, Ji Yang gently flicked it, re-hooking the Red-tailed Spiritual Fish that was almost about to escape.

At this moment, Ji Yang realized he could channel True Essence to any part of the rod, including the fishing line and the hook, though it required a certain amount of energy.

At the same time, Ji Yang became acutely aware of the strength with which the hooked Red-tailed Spiritual Fish was thrashing.

He could perfectly master the amount of force needed and even reduce the output of strength.
