Yuantian Pidao

Chapter 295 Opening a Fishing Ground
News of the demon race's crushing defeat on Muyu Island has reached everyone, and the entire sect is filled with joy.

Whoosh, the clouds and mist surged, and Jiang Chen quietly returned.

"From now on, let's turn this Enchanted Bay into our Taiping Sect's fishing grounds."

Looking down over the entire Muyu Island from his vantage point, Jiang Chen began to formulate a plan.

In the next instant, spiritual energy surged, and he activated the Fish Spirit Pillar, causing ten beams of spiritual light to appear around him.

"fall!"

With his divine sense released and the location confirmed, Jiang Chen fully activated the Fish Spirit Pillar. Because he had inherited the Fish Shepherd Curse, he was quite adept at activating the Fish Spirit Pillar.

With a whoosh, the ten fish spirit pillars fell and settled in their respective places, causing waves to rise from the still waters of the Bewitching Bay. However, under Jiang Chen's suppression, the waters quickly calmed down again.

"That completes the process."

With his divine eye shining upon the newly formed light screen, Jiang Chen nodded.

The current Bewitching Bay appears no different from before, but the power of the Fish Spirit Pillar has actually enveloped the entire Bewitching Bay, creating a special barrier between the Bewitching Bay and the main stream of the Qingyuan River.

"The fishing grounds are now complete. The next thing to solve is the problem of spiritual energy and spiritual fish."

"I'll leave the former to Tao Yao. This time, I've brought back the spiritual vein from Blackwater Dock. As long as Tao Yao successfully integrates this spiritual vein into Wooden Fish Island, the spiritual energy of Bewitching Bay will definitely reach a new level. With the blessing of the Fish Spirit Pillar, cultivating second-tier spirit fish will naturally not be a problem."

"In addition, the Jade Liquid Lotus can also be planted in this Bewitching Bay. The seeds of this spiritual creature were specially left by True Person Chengyuan. It is also an extremely suitable food for spirit fish. The jade liquid produced can improve the flesh of spirit fish, and at the same time, the spirit fish can also promote its growth to a certain extent. The two can be said to complement each other."

"As for spirit fish, I collected some with the help of the dragon fishing rod before, but the number was small. In the future, I can try to buy fish fry from outside and obtain them from the Qingyuan River."

"If this fishing ground can really provide me with a stable supply of second-tier spirit fish, it will definitely be a good thing for my cultivation."

Having made up his mind, Jiang Chen disappeared.

For him, the most important thing right now is that Tao Yao has swallowed the spiritual vein of Blackwater Dock.

Blackwater Dock is located deep in the borderlands, with an extremely harsh environment. Although there is a spiritual vein there and the Crocodile Demon Clan has left some foundations, it is still too troublesome for the Taiping Sect to truly control it with its current strength, and he cannot stay there for a long time.

In this situation, to avoid trouble, he simply used the power of the peach branch to restrain the spiritual vein.

As Tao Yao began to devour the spiritual veins of Blackwater Dock, subtle changes began to occur on Wooden Fish Island.

At the same time, news of the appearance of the dragon, the confluence of the two rivers, the great defeat of the Crocodile Abyss, and the heavy losses suffered by the demon race began to truly spread. For a time, the four southern prefectures were shaken and continued to spread outwards, attracting more and more people to turn their attention to the south.

It should be understood that in the present-day Southern Jing Kingdom, a Dao Foundation cultivator is already a very important figure, and the rise or fall of a Dao Foundation power is enough to cause changes in the court.

The capital city, Huoyuan City, the residence of the Seventh Princess.

"It was truly unexpected. The defeat of the Aoki family made me think that the four southern prefectures would suffer heavy losses this time. But unexpectedly, a Dao Foundation level dragon jumped out and directly rewrote the overall situation."

"Is it because the Aoki family is too weak or because that dragon is too strong that it was able to suppress the great demon Crocodile Abyss all by itself?"

In the garden, looking at the message from the magic mirror in her hand, the Seventh Princess Chen Jingshu showed a look of surprise. She had delicate features, wore a light blue gauze dress, had fair skin, and gentle eyes and brows, and looked very frail.

"Abbess Jueqing, I've heard that my third brother once tried to win over a frost dragon from Changfeng County. Do you think there's any connection between the two?"

Setting down the precious mirror, Chen Jingshu turned her gaze to the Daoist nun in front of her. Her face was sallow, and she had a small mole between her eyebrows. She exuded an aura that kept strangers at bay.

“There aren’t many dragons in the Southern Kingdom. The sudden appearance of two dragons in the south, both skilled at dispelling fog, is certainly not a mere coincidence. There must be a connection between them, which also makes it easier to explain why these dragons suddenly attacked Crocodile Abyss.” After a moment of contemplation, Abbess Jueqing shared her opinion.

Upon hearing this, Chen Jingshu nodded, then shook her head.

“What the nun said makes sense, but I always feel that the dragon that defeated Crocodile Abyss might be the Frost Dragon.”

Holding scissors, Chen Jingshu cut off a flower branch without saying a word.

Upon hearing this, Abbess Jueqing frowned.

In her opinion, Chen Jingshu's guess was really absurd. After all, the dragon did not defeat, but suppressed Crocodile Abyss, leaving Crocodile Abyss with no chance to escape. The fact that it could do this proved that the dragon's strength far surpassed Crocodile Abyss's, which was something that a newly promoted Dao Foundation cultivator could not do. This was not in line with common sense.

Although she disagreed with him, she did not immediately refute Chen Jingshu, because she knew Chen Jingshu was extraordinary. Otherwise, she would not have become Chen Jingshu's protector.

"Do you think that the dragon was hiding its strength and pretending to be a Qi cultivator?"

Thinking of a certain possibility, the Heartless Abbess turned her gaze to Chen Jingshu.

"Perhaps that's the case, or perhaps that dragon truly possesses extraordinary talent and has a great opportunity within its grasp."

Without commenting, Chen Jingshu continued pruning the flower branches.

Under her pruning, the originally ordinary bouquet gradually transformed into something extraordinary.

Looking at Chen Jingshu like this, the ruthless nun's tightly furrowed brows slowly smoothed out.

"What are you going to do?"

Without further thought, the Heartless Abbess directly asked the question that concerned her most.

"I plan to make a trip to the South myself to meet some powerful figures there. Although the country has been in chaos for years, I can still see the general situation clearly. It's just that the Qu and Qiao families are stirring things up behind the scenes."

"The changes in the South were beyond my expectations. I felt that going there might bring unexpected gains."

Without pausing for a moment, Chen Jingshu expressed her thoughts.

Upon hearing this and seeing Chen Jingshu like this, the Heartless Abbess showed a hint of surprise on her face.

"Are you really sure? If you do this, your uncles and brothers will probably start having other ideas, and then it will be hard for you to have peace and quiet."

As she spoke, the Heartless Abbess kept her eyes fixed on Chen Jingshu.

Upon hearing this, Chen Jingshu let out a soft laugh.

"Born into the Chen family, there is no such thing as true peace and quiet. The reason we didn't act before was simply because the time wasn't right and we didn't have enough strength."

"If I wait any longer, I'm afraid I'll really miss my chance. I have to fight for it eventually."

Laughter, like a spring breeze, swept through the garden. At that moment, Chen Jingshu finally put down the scissors in her hand. The bouquet in front of her had been completely trimmed, and the flowers were bright and beautiful, blooming like flames surrounded by green leaves.

Upon hearing this, Abbess Jueqing said no more.
