440 Fishing With A Skyhook (Part 1)
Chu Xuan stayed in the courtyard and silently went about his own business. Occasionally, he would turn to look at what was going on to the nine zones, paying close attention to the plans of those hidden experts.
He restrained himself from interfering too much, lest his actions affect the progress of the Great Dao calamity.
The Northern Zone was very peaceful. Most of the cultivators here had left in search of opportunities elsewhere. While the expanded territory of the Northern Zone contained countless treasured lands, Chu Xuan had hidden them all.
Any hidden experts who were trying to use the Northern Zone as the foundation for their plans were probably extremely frustrated at this point.
!!
All of the living beings of the nine zones seemed to have forgotten the existence of the Northern Zone entirely, despite how abnormal the situation there was.
No one remembered how special the Northern Zone was, including those who had left in search of other opportunities in other zones.
Even Yang, whose wisp of consciousness had already descended upon the nine zones, seemed to have neglected the existence of the Northern Zone.
This was done by Chu Xuan deliberately.
After the nine zones were incorporated into the Heavenly Dao laws, he caused people to unknowingly ignore the existence of the Northern Zone.
A portion of the treasure lands in the Northern Zones did not contain traces of those hidden experts’ plans. These he opened up privately for the cultivators of the Black Moon Tower, and the Great Qin Empire, to explore.
The Chu family was also involved in this.
Chu Yun would often explore treasure lands and was very excited about her findings.
Once she gained something, she would run back to show Chu Xuan what she had gained.
Time flowed on, and soon three months had passed.
Chu Xuan had extended his Dao path by ten miles, which was astoundingly fast by the standards of ordinary Daoyuan realm cultivators.
However, Chu Xuan was still not satisfied.
Still, there was no better way currently.
He sighed inwardly.
Catching prey and triggering the system’s reward was the fastest way, but this also required patience.
He looked at the Skyhook race’s treasure land.
Xiao Liang had just finished comprehending and strengthening his Battle Dao principle.
He had gained a lot, and his strength had improved again.
The greatest benefit was that Xiao Liang’s horizons had been broadened, and his state of mind had changed. This experience allowed him to have a clearer direction for his cultivation and improvement in the Dao realm. It was unlikely that he would encounter a bottleneck in his cultivation before the 16th level of the Dao realm.
It was time to catch a big fish.
It so happened that the genius of the Azure Dragon tribe was also on the move. The timing was perfect.
‘My Dao path extension depends on you, big fish,’ Chu Xuan thought silently.
“It’s time!”
Chu Xuan’s voice rang out in Xiao Liang’s mind.
“Yes, Master!”
Xiao Liang’s eyes lit up. He could almost envision the great opportunity and treasure right in front of him.
Chu Xuan could not help but fall into a state of deep thought.
Was he setting a bad example?
His actions would not lead his disciples astray, right?
When they became stronger one day, would they try to obtain treasures and opportunities like this?
‘Forget it, I can’t be bothered.’
Chu Xuan pondered. In any case, if his disciples were truly interested in fishing for treasures, he would impart some of his skills and knowledge to them.
He instructed Xiao Liang to go to the core of the treasure land, where there was a skyhook embedded in the ground.
It was pitch-black and mottled, as if it had been eroded by countless passing years.
This skyhook was the true trump card left behind by the Skyhook race’s expert.
Once this skyhook was activated and awakened, the other party could use it to channel their wisp of consciousness.
That expert would be able to use the skyhook as a medium to observe Xiao Liang and discover his monstrous abilities.
Once the other party was tempted by Xiao Liang, he would definitely use the skyhook as a guide for his wisp of consciousness to descend; hopefully with a supreme treasure.
It was actually very easy to activate this skyhook. As long as one’s battle intent was strong enough, one could activate the skyhook.
It seemed simple, but the requirement for battle intent was not low.
“Use your battle intent to activate the skyhook.”
“Yes, Master!”
Xiao Liang took a deep breath and calmed his excited heart.
It was time to act, and he could not expose any flaws to the other party.
Of course, an existence of that level would not care about the changes in Xiao Liang’s expression.
There was no way the other party would believe that they were being deceived by a mere fifth-level Dao realm cultivator.
That would be unthinkable.
After all, there were no experts at their level in the nine zones.
This carelessness was what would give Chu Xuan the opportunity he needed.
Xiao Liang’s battle intent was triggered as he charged toward the skyhook.
To make Xiao Liang’s talent even more obvious, Chu Xuan attached a small portion of the power of the Heavenly Dao laws to Xiao Liang’s body, empowering his battle intent.
Xiao Liang’s battle intent had now far exceeded the required amount to activate the skyhook.
Chu Xuan was brimming with confidence. He would catch this big fish for sure!
