Chapter 916: Silver Horned Giant Fish

Chapter 916 Giant Silver-Horned Fish

“By the way, Fellow Daoist Shi, Lu has something to ask.”

"Friend Lu, it's okay to say it."

Shi Zichen had just drank a small bottle of Ice Marrow Spirit Brew and was extremely polite to Lu Xuan.

"I heard that demons and evil things are often caught in the Qianbaozhen River. Is this true?"

"Lu is just a spiritual planter. If he accidentally encounters a demon, he will probably die. So I would like to ask fellow Taoist Shi how to avoid the evil things of demons?"

Lu Xuan asked doubtfully.

He had three strains of soul insect fungi in his hand that were extremely attractive to demons, but he was worried that if he caught them hastily because he was not strong enough, it would bring risks, so he wanted to get more information from Shi Zichen, a senior fisherman.

However, he considered that if the other Taoist friend himself had a strong interest in fishing monsters, it would most likely arouse suspicion, so he asked in reverse.

"Friend Lu Dao, there is no need to worry. There are indeed demons and evil spirits in the Qianbaozhen River, but they are extremely rare."

"Usually they only lurk in some special locations, or when the spiritual tide breaks out, the probability of appearing is higher."

"Therefore, when fishing for treasures normally, the possibility of encountering demons and evil things is very slim."

Shi Zichen explained in detail.

"I see."

Lu Xuan nodded lightly.

"Thank you, fellow Daoist Shi, for clearing up the confusion. Lu has itchy hands and wants to try his luck."

He bowed his hand to Shi Zichen.

"I wish fellow Taoist Stone can catch enough spiritual fish and water beasts."

Then, he walked several miles down the river bank, selected a suitable location, and took out the black jade spiritual rod and bait.

After everything was ready, he swung the spiritual pole vigorously, and the spiritual light flowed on the surface of the spiritual pole, and suddenly stretched to more than ten feet. The fishing line made of ice silk fell into the Qianbaozhen River with the agarwood hook.

Three days passed in the blink of an eye.

"What's strange is that there is no such dark fish in this water area?"

Lu Xuan looked puzzled, raised his arm vigorously, and the agarwood hook with the bait came out from the depths of the water.

This time, in order to catch the dark fish, he deliberately sprinkled a lot of special bait, but he didn't expect it. No spiritual fish has bitten the hook yet.

If you want to get it out of the Qianbaozhen River, you can basically only fish.

Monks cannot enter the Qianbaozhen River. Once they accidentally fall in, they will quickly lose their minds, or be directly eaten by various beings inside, or become a fishing target for others thousands of years later.

If you use fishing nets to catch fish, the feasibility is not very high.

After all, the number of spirit fish and water beasts in Zhenhe is not very large compared to the entire water area. If you put a net in, the possibility of catching spirit fish and water beasts is extremely slim.

Furthermore, finding a fishing net that can be used to catch high-level spiritual fish and water beasts is much more difficult than finding a fishing rod with the same effect.

Perhaps only those large sects are willing to spend such money.

For ordinary monks who fish for treasures, the most primitive fishing method is the most cost-effective.

In the eyes of those spiritual fish and aquatic animals with the instinct to eat, the lure of bait is much greater than that of fishing nets and other magical weapons.

After the spirit fish and water beast bite the hook, the rest is a matter of wrestling between them.

The monk's physical body, soul, spiritual rod grade, treasure used to capture, timing... are all factors that can affect whether he can catch the fish.

Of course, the most difficult part is getting the spirit fish and aquatic beast to take the bait.

However, this is not a big problem for Lu Xuan.

He can make precise adjustments in time according to the preferences of various spiritual fish and water beasts, and maximize the effect of the bait. As a result, the number of spiritual fish and water beasts that can be attracted will also increase sharply.

"The giant silver-horned fish weighing several thousand kilograms, even if the inedible parts are removed, can still be a feast for all the spiritual beasts in the cave."

Lu Xuan said secretly in his heart.

"Thunder-type heavenly materials and earthly treasures...there are several kinds in the gluttonous insect sac, let's use the thunderstorm lotus seeds."

He has been working in the Thunder Star Cave for many years and has collected extremely rich thunder-type heavenly materials and earthly treasures.

Thunderstorm Lotus Seeds, Thunder Death Crystal, Yimu Green Thunder Liquid, Dark Green Thunder Liquid...

After thinking about it, the fourth-grade thunderstorm lotus seeds are the most cost-effective.

Lu Xuan stretched out his palm, and five or six silver-white lotus seeds quietly appeared in his palm.

He clenched his fist, and the silver-white lotus seeds suddenly shattered into fine powder, and tiny strands of lightning appeared from time to time.

Immediately afterwards, he took out another piece of fishing bait and blended the silver-white powder into it.

In this way, it has become a special bait that the giant silver-horned fish must eat.
