Chapter 255 Preliminary Test
"Yes, Wuliang River, only such a river can produce such a strange thing as the Tao Soul." Zheng Kun sighed.
Gu Yuanqing raised his head and looked upstream of the river. Under his eyes, he could see a large building in the distance.
"Where is the headquarters of the Phantom Spirit Sect?"
Zheng Kun nodded and said: "Yes, more than six thousand miles from there, everything is owned by the Phantom Spirit Sect. That area Near the upper reaches, Taoist souls gather, and there are several ancient fishing platforms in the middle. It is said that an ancient power arranged the means. It is the best fishing position on the Wuliang River. Just entering it requires surrender every seven days. An ancient coin.”
Gu Yuanqing said: "Brother Zheng, why don't you go there? One ancient coin for seven days is not too expensive for Xutian monks. Since it is better to catch some fish, the harvest should be bigger?"
"The means are not enough, the Taoist soul likes movement rather than silence. Although there are more Taoist souls, the water over there is fast and there are undercurrents everywhere, that is, Now that I have a Xuanpin fishing rod, I can’t hold on for long under the torrent of vitality. My Taoist friend is far better than me, so I can give it a try.”
“Forget it. I'm new to this place and I'm not familiar with the way to catch Taoist souls. Let's take a look later." Gu Yuanqing withdrew his gaze.
Zheng Kun said with a smile: "Actually, it would be better for us and the casual cultivators to fish outside. There are many people there, disciples from large sects gather, and there are often heavenly beings on several ancient fishing platforms. Fishing, if you really catch something good, it will be a lot of trouble."
Hearing the word "Heaven", Gu Yuanqing decided to choose a secluded place to fish. It is difficult for the ancient world to rely on the power of Beiquan Mountain. Now. I don’t want to get too close to the heavenly beings.
What's more, he didn't know how the Sky Fishing method was used in this Wuliang River, so avoiding the eyes and ears of everyone was the best choice.
"Then let me choose a place to start. I can't wait." Gu Yuanqing smiled.
"Taoist friends have to be patient. Fishing for Taoist souls is not the same as fishing. It is common for there to be no movement for ten and a half months, or even several months. It all depends on luck."
After walking more than a thousand miles downstream, Zheng Kun stopped.
He seemed to be relieved: "The waters here are neither urgent nor slow, and are suitable for fishing. Once, I caught two Xuanji Taoist souls here in one month. The last time This place was occupied by people when I came here, but luckily there were none today.”
Gu Yuanqing laughed and said: "Then I will observe and learn first, and then look for another fishing place."
Zheng Kun laughed: "Based on what Taoist friend said before, I have gained some experience and determined Don’t hide it privately.”
Zheng Kun found a place to sit down, took out the fishing tackle from the storage bag, and activated his true energy, and the fishing tackle that was less than three feet suddenly became dozens of feet long.
“To catch the Tao Soul, you use the True Essence and the Tao Yun as bait, which is the condensed understanding of the Tao. The purer the Tao Yun is, the easier it is for the Tao Soul to take the bait. How to condense it better requires the Tao You have figured it out on your own, there are thousands of people with thousands of methods, and everyone’s cultivation and Taoism are different.”
As Zheng Kun spoke, he saw a faint green light shining on the fishing hook, which condensed into one in the blink of an eye. The size of a group of fists.
"I am proficient in the wind path, which is the bait for condensing the wind system. The Dao souls I catch are also biased towards the wind path. Of course, it is not necessarily the case. The Dao souls multiply and insult each other, so there will be other Dao souls taking the bait. It all depends on Luck, after all, if spiritual thoughts fall into this immeasurable river, they will be wiped out by all the ways. No one knows what kind of souls are around this river. "
“The whereabouts of the Taoist soul are uncertain, and the depth of the water in the immeasurable river is unknown. How much the fishing line sinks can only be determined by yourself. Although some people have summarized some experiences, it is different in different locations. For example, here is my The bait will sink to about thirty feet. If there is a place I often visit six hundred miles down, the bait will sink into the water. About seventy feet."
"Some people say that the deeper the Tao bait sinks, the greater the chance of catching the Tao soul. But at the same time, the deeper it sinks, the underwater undercurrents are heavy, which is harmful to the true soul. The consumption is also greater. Where Taoists fish, it is best to choose a shallower place and find the most suitable method for fishing. It’s impossible to wait all day long for something to happen in one or two days. When fishing, we usually practice or refine ancient coins at the same time.”...
Gu Yuanqing listened quietly on the side. Now, as he said before, Zheng Kun didn't hide his selfish thoughts, and everything happened during the fishing process was explained one by one.
Although these things are very simple, they are all summaries of experience and can save Gu Yuanqing a lot of time.
"Gu Daoyou, you can give it a try first. After all, I am talking in vain, and there are many things you can't think of."
Gu Yuanqing smiled and said, "Then I'll ask Brother Zheng to give me some advice."
< br>"There is no point in giving any advice, it's just communication, we are waiting for the monks to practice The journey is difficult, so we should support each other to move forward. What's more, there are countless Dao souls in this boundless river. Whether you can catch them depends on your ability. If you catch Dao souls that are not in line with your own Dao, you can exchange them with each other. "< br>
Gu Yuanqing also sat down about three feet away and took out his fishing rod.
Although it was his first time to fish for Dao Souls in Wuliang River, he had the experience of fishing for monsters while sitting on Beiquan Mountain, so he was no stranger to this.
The Xuantie fishing rod reached its limit when it reached a length of more than ten feet. After all, Huangjie's fishing tackle was not as good as Xuanjie's.
Zheng Kun watched Gu Yuanqing start the operation, and smiled: "This first step of condensing the Tao bait is quite difficult. After all, the Tao is impermanent and has to be manifested externally. It is different from what is used in daily fighting. Fighting is driven by true energy, and Dao will follow it, but Dao bait is It is the condensation of pure Tao Yun. I remember that I also spent nearly three days..."
Zheng Kun suddenly stopped talking when he said this, because he found that Gu Yuanqing's fishing hook was shining with gleaming light, and a fist The large and small Wu Shui Daoyun have been condensed and formed.
He smacked his lips and couldn't help but look at Gu Yuanqing a few more times. After a while, he sighed: "I've been worrying too much. My Taoist friend's cultivation and understanding of the Tao are far from those of Zheng." In comparison, the purity of the Tao Yun in the condensed Tao bait is even better than that of a person like me who has been fishing for hundreds of years.”
Gu Yuanqing smiled and said: "No, I just heard about fishing for Taoist souls in Wuliang River before, so I was prepared before entering the ancient world."
Gu Yuanqing's Taoist bait entered the water, and he immediately felt that the vitality was transformed The rapids are constantly pulling and washing the Tao Yun.
Zheng Kun said again at this time: "The water of the Wuliang River is originally transformed by the power of ten thousand ways. Maintaining the Tao Yun when it enters the water is the second difficulty. Many Taoist friends have no experience. When the Tao bait enters the water, it will be Dispersed, back then I..., but based on my fellow Taoist cultivation and ability to deal with It shouldn’t be too difficult to comprehend the Way of Wu Water.”
He originally wanted to say that it took him several days to stabilize the Tao Bai in the Wandao River, but he suddenly thought that Gu Yuanqing had easily condensed the Tao Bai just now. scene, he stopped talking again.
“Indeed!”
Gu Yuanqing nodded in agreement. He felt that as the bait entered the water, the vitality in the river seemed to be affected by the bait and changed rapidly, as if various Taoist intentions were constantly impacting the bait. If he had not had fishing experience, he would not have been able to catch the bait in a moment. will dissipate.
