562: The fishing god is alive, the underworld tide breaks out, and we go to the kingdom of all monsters
Huge splashes erupted on the surface of the nether river, even churning up mud and sand, carrying streaks of colorful light.
“It’s on!”
“It’s on!”
Several Ferryman exclaimed in surprise.
Plop!
A treasure shot out of the water, followed the fish hook, and landed on the boat.
Just then.
A crystal-clear fruit appeared in Chu Jiang’s hand.
“This is… a Ten-Thousand-Year Vermilion Fruit!”
Chu Jiang said excitedly. Vermilion Fruits are Heaven And Earth Treasure for body tempering. A Thousand-Year Vermilion Fruit is already rare, and this one, judging by its purity, has reached ten thousand years.
“Senior, you truly possess great Luck to have fished out such a rare treasure.”
The Great Clan Elder also sighed, marveling that the Wind Chasing Fishing Rod, which was a grade lower than the Yin King Fishing Rod, yielded gold on its very first cast.
Chu Jiang placed the Vermilion Fruit into his nether ring and once again cast the Wind Chasing Fishing Rod into the water.
Gurgle!
Hiss—
“Oh, it’s hooked again!”
A streak of colorful light broke through the water of the nether river.
This time, it was a Thousand-Year Vermilion Fruit.
Chu Jiang cast his rod five times in a row, with one empty cast, and obtained one Ten-Thousand-Year Vermilion Fruit and three Thousand-Year Vermilion Fruits.
Whoosh!
Chu Jiang was already addicted and cast his rod in a different direction.
Whoosh!
A Void Piercing Pill, and a two-pattern Void Piercing Pill at that.
Whoosh!
He cast his rod again.
The scene fell into a dead silence.
Everyone’s eyes widened in disbelief.
“How is this possible? Who is this Divine Being? His success rate is far too high!”
“This old man has fished in the nether river for three hundred years and hasn’t caught as much as he has in these few casts.”
The Wandering Soul Clan, the Earthfire Remnants, and many other forces were utterly astonished.
River-Severing Dragon of the Tiancan Sword Alliance grew increasingly grim-faced. Ever since Chu Jiang arrived, his Yin King Fishing Rod hadn’t had a single bite.
“Damn it, this guy must have stolen my good Luck.”
Before anyone could lament.
Suddenly.
A even brighter colorful light erupted than before, attracting the prying eyes of more forces.
“This is… a Top-Grade Spirit Stone!”
“Bastard, share some of his Luck with me! All the treasures unearthed from the nether river in ten years have been taken by him alone!”
Chu Jiang cast his rod nine times in a row, with two empty casts, and harvested seven Top-Grade Spirit Stones.
Afterward, Chu Jiang once again had Jiuyou change to a different fishing spot and continued fishing.
“I’ll call him the God of Fishing!”
Everyone’s eyes were bloodshot, almost going mad.
Tuoba Xing made no effort to hide his intense covetousness, muttering, “Mine, all mine… Once you come ashore, it will all belong to my Corpse Barbarian Tribe!”
River-Severing Dragon’s eyes were blazing with the same idea.
Chu Jiang had fished up too many treasures from the nether river, all of them rare items.
Whoosh!
Chu Jiang pulled hard, and another item was reeled in by the fishing rod.
Unlike before, this time it was a book, filled with an ancient and rustic aura.
Before he could examine it closely, Chu Jiang’s gaze suddenly swept into the distance. He immediately put away his fishing rod and said in a deep voice, “Jiuyou, accelerate! Leave this river section as fast as possible.”
“Yes!”
Jiuyou didn’t understand why, but still followed Chu Jiang’s instructions.
The nethercrossing boat suddenly accelerated, its speed soaring as it swiftly departed.
“Quick, set sail! To the Ferryman’s fishing spot.”
“There must be more treasures here, quick, fish!”
As soon as Chu Jiang and his companions’ boat left, a dozen other boats headed for their fishing spots.
Those few spots must be gathering places for great treasures.
Numerous forces went mad, all converging on those few fishing spots.
“Bastards, set sail! Whoever dares to snatch the waters of my Tiancan Sword Alliance will face reckoning after we reach shore. All of you, scram!”
Four or five nethercrossing boats of the Tiancan Sword Alliance simultaneously set off, issuing threats.
“Great Priest, should we…?”
On the Wandering Soul Clan’s boat, a Blood Guard said to the Great Priest beside him, who was wearing a bamboo hat.
“Set sail immediately, full speed, follow behind the Ferryman!”
The Great Priest commanded.
“Ah… aren’t we going to fish?”
The Blood Guard asked, puzzled. This was an Opportunity to acquire peerless treasures.
“Why run when things are going so well? There must be something fishy. Following them, even if there’s no Opportunity, at least there won’t be any danger.”
The Great Priest said.
“Yes!”
The three nethercrossing boats of the Wandering Soul Clan moved at full speed, swiftly departing.
No one paid attention to the departing boats; everyone was engrossed in the joy of soon fishing for great treasures.
In less than a quarter of an hour.
Buzz—
At the end of the nether river, a strange tremor suddenly emanated, and a pale yellow ripple appeared, connecting heaven and earth.
The Tiancan Sword Alliance and the Corpse Barbarian Tribe, who were fishing, saw the end of the world.
“Not good! The nether river is surging! Retreat quickly, hard to port!”
All the forces’ faces changed drastically, showing terror.
Ten breaths later.
The wave crest, like a collapsing snow mountain, approached, engulfing heaven and earth.
These dozens of nethercrossing boats were like isolated skiffs beneath the raging waves.
The several-meter-long nethercrossing boats were instantly engulfed by the huge waves upon contact.
Crack!
The hull shattered.
“No—”
The people on the boat let out desperate roars, and in the next second, they were swallowed by the nether tide.
In a few breaths, twenty nethercrossing boats were buried in the nether river.
“Why is there such a huge tide? Damn it!”
“It must be that damned Yan Luo Temple! He fished away a large number of treasures, provoking the wrath of the nether river, and then he just packed up and ran!”
“This old man will chop you into pieces!”
River-Severing Dragon roared, ordering all ships to leave at full speed.
Crash! Bang!
After a series of giant waves, ten nethercrossing boats of the Tiancan Sword Alliance and the Corpse Barbarian Tribe were destroyed, leaving no trace of their occupants.
…
On the other side.
The residual waves of the great tide also impacted Chu Jiang’s nethercrossing boat.
However, it merely caused the large boat to sway slightly a few times.
“Senior, you are truly a Divine Being! To be able to sense the arrival of the nether tide in advance!”
Seeing this, the Great Clan Elder was utterly awestruck. No one could predict the great tides of the nether river; by the time they were visible to the naked eye, it was already too late, with no escape route.
If it were before, Chu Jiang would naturally have found it difficult to sense, but after his Soul power Breakthrough to the Heavenly Mandate level, his Divine Sense power surged, allowing him to detect enemies in advance.
Chu Jiang speculated that it might be because he had just fished up too many treasures, triggering the nether river’s rules, which in turn caused the great tide. There must still be many treasures in the nether river, but exceeding a certain quantity in a short period would definitely lead to disaster.
…
“Great Priest, fortunately, our Wandering Soul Clan didn’t go fishing, or else we might have been buried in the nether river by now.”
The Blood Guard increasingly admired his Great Priest’s judgment. Although their boat was large and might not capsize, if the waves were too big, no one could guarantee that nothing would go wrong.
The Great Priest’s expression, however, grew even more solemn. He said, “This person can detect the nether tide in advance; his strength is unfathomable. My Wandering Soul Clan must never provoke him.”
He had a feeling that even the Filth Demon King of the Ten Thousand Demons Country might not be able to defeat this person.
“Yes, Great Priest!”
The Blood Guard nodded.
…
After an unknown amount of time, Chu Jiang and his companions finally reached the other side of the nether river.
“Have we finally arrived?”
Chu Jiang looked forward.
Compared to the desolation of the four aboriginal residential areas, this place was lush with foliage, like a fairyland on earth.
Giant trees soared into the sky, and a hundred flowers bloomed.
Chu Jiang did not hesitate, heading directly towards the Ten Thousand Demons Country, scavenging for Heaven And Earth Treasure along the way.
“The demons of the Ten Thousand Demons Country, hehehe, I have arrived…” Chu Jiang’s mouth curved upwards. For him, slaying demons and achieving Minor Achievement in the Divine Elephant Suppressing Prison Sutra was the top priority.
