Chapter 4 Breakthrough

Chapter 4 Breakthrough
The moonlight was hazy, like a layer of gauze covering the water surface. The tides rose and fell, and the sea breeze brought up gusts of fishy and salty smell.

Li Quanqing sat cross-legged on the lotus platform with his eyes closed. His whole body was enveloped in the brilliant light of the array, and he looked dignified and majestic.

As the tide of the sea rose and fell, the magic power he cultivated seemed to resonate with it, and waves of strange sounds came from his body.

Light blue gaseous magic power with golden light flows through the meridians like hundreds of rivers converging, and finally turns into a misty spiritual sea in the dantian.

Wisps of mist emanated from his mouth, nose, and other orifices like little snakes. They were balls of spiritual energy that he had not had time to refine.

The school of fish turned into thousands of sea scales, surging layer by layer, surrounding the lotus platform, vying for the pure spiritual mist. It was a spectacular scene.

In the end, the two jade carps took the lion's share of the spoils.

Time passed bit by bit, and this breakthrough lasted an entire night.

It was not until the sky darkened and the east turned white that Li Quanqing's body trembled violently and he slowly opened his eyes.

Two beams of light shot out from his pupils, half a foot long, piercing the deepest darkness before dawn.

A bright sun jumped out of the sea, and its red and golden light spread over the Donglan Sea, shining warmly on people's bodies.

Li Quanqing exhaled a breath of foul air, and felt that his whole body from the soles of his feet to the top of his head was extremely clear.

As the magic power surges, there is an illusion that it is powerful enough to blow everything up.

"Don't be arrogant or impatient. I'm only at the third level of Qi Refining. If you are too arrogant, you will be beaten!"

Li Quanqing stood up and stretched his stiff hands and feet, but he couldn't suppress his pout.

A sixteen-year-old who has reached the third level of Qi Refining is considered a genius even among the direct descendants of the Li family.

Wow!
Dozens of big black carps were jumping in the water, opening their mouths to spit out water arrows. They were so dense that strong winds blew towards us.

They had been hungry all night. Not only did they fail to get any food last night, but they were also beaten for no reason. They were all very angry.

"Humph! Today is a good day to sell you all!"

Li Quanqing had long since lost his patience with these arrogant guys.

He took out all the baits and started feeding them. This is your last full meal, so eat to your heart's content!

Li Quanqing took out several fish baskets from the boat. They looked inconspicuous, but they were actually space magic tools specially used to store fish.

It is one of the family benefits.

He used his water control skills to condense a fishing net the size of a house, and scooped it into the water with all his might!
Wow!
The water poured down from the sky, the white waves rolled, and finally all that was left in the net were the layers of piled-up fish.

"This fish is big enough, and its water arrows are big and powerful. It will definitely sell for a good price."

"This one looks familiar. It looks like the young fish that spit at me yesterday. Let's just release it."

"Wow! There are actually female fish with such full ovaries. This is a treasure. I can keep it as a breeding fish. It needs a separate room."

In the end, in addition to the more than 1078 breeding fish that were left behind, Li Quanqing harvested a total of fat and big black carps, which was considered a great harvest.

As for the jade carp, they still need to be bred and cannot be sold for the time being.

Humming a fisherman's song, Li Quanqing pushed his own fishing boat and sped towards Qingyu Island.

Seeing that the main island was in sight, Li Quanqing suddenly turned a corner and headed straight for his uncle's fish pond.

To be precise, it is now his fish pond.

The waters of Area B are located right between Qingyu Island and its seven branch islands, forming a circle.

In terms of the concentration of spiritual energy alone, it is not much worse than the second-level spiritual vein.

Yimao District, Fish Pond No. 45.

This fish pond is slightly smaller, about sixteen acres, with a shiny water surface, curling white mist, and lush lotus leaves, like a fairyland.

It looks quite extraordinary.

"Qing'er, you're here really early. I'll give you the formation token once I've caught all the fish."

In the middle of the fish pond, a middle-aged woman in simple clothes wiped the sweat from her forehead and smiled innocently.

Cultivators of immortality are nourished by spiritual energy and generally look good.

The skin of this short woman was slightly rough, her face was tanned from years of fishing, her knuckles were thick, and only the corners of her eyes and eyebrows showed a hint of her former beauty.

"I'm not in a hurry, aunt, you go ahead and do your work."

Li Quanqing sighed as he watched the woman struggling to cast a spell and catch fish. His uncle was such an unreliable man, but he married a virtuous woman.

He could see that because of all the hard work she had put in to support the family over the years, his aunt's cultivation had clearly regressed.

The fairy who once had bright eyes and a charming look has now turned into a yellow-faced woman.

After catching the last big blue carp in the water into the fish basket, my aunt finally felt relieved.

In order to explore the ancient cave, Li Yuheng took all the spiritual stones in his home and exchanged them for talismans and elixirs. The mother and son relied on these spiritual fish to survive this period.

Seeing that she had wasted more than an hour, she felt quite apologetic: "Qing'er, I'm so sorry, take this green jade carp to nourish your body!"

"No need. I heard that my cousin Quanzhu has just entered the Equipment Refining Hall and is spending a lot of money. Auntie should use the money to sell spirit stones."

Li Quanqing shook his head and watched the woman leave. Then he used the fish pond token he had just obtained to open the formation.

The dense spiritual energy blows towards you, truly refreshing your heart.

Li Quanqing looked around the fish pond and felt quite satisfied.

He threw the male and female breeding fish with strong bodies and swollen bellies into the fish pond, and sprinkled the special acacia incense prepared by his family for carp.

There is abundant spiritual energy here, and the fish eggs produced here can have better talents.

Although the chance is very small, it is possible for the big black carp to transform into a jade carp.

After finishing his work, Li Quanqing sealed the formation again and headed straight for Qingyu Island.

In the eastern part of the island, there stands a majestic ancient palace with green bricks and tiles, carved beams and painted buildings, which exudes an ancient and heavy atmosphere.

Changqing Palace.

Deacons and clan elders were busy shuttling back and forth, taking charge of all the miscellaneous affairs of the Li family's more than 2,000 immortal cultivators.

Li Quanqing was familiar with the route and came to the side hall where the family purchased the spiritual fish.

There are quite a few people here, all of them smelling of fish, carrying baskets of fish, their faces filled with joy of the harvest.

The family elder, who was dressed like a fisherman and had white hair and beard, looked up at him and said, "Which island are you from, young man? You look unfamiliar."

"The branch of Qingpan Island, Li Quanqing."

Li Quanqing took out the jade identity card issued by his family, infused it with magical power, and instantly revealed his appearance and various information.

"I remember now. It was the cub left behind by Yu Ru."

The elder slapped his head and looked at the young man in front of him, a little surprised: "The third level of Qi Refining, the cultivation speed is not slow!"

Li Quanqing smiled slightly and said nothing.

The parents of this body of his are actually very talented.

My mother, Li Yuru, was a body cultivator. She beat many members of the Li family, including my uncle, until their hearts were shattered. She was a battle maniac.

Although my father Li Yuping was born a mortal with no background, he is a genuine first-class top-grade talisman master with a wealthy fortune.

The elder checked the big black carp in the fish basket, looking quite satisfied: "This is your first time raising fish, right? These big black carp are well raised and full of life!"

He wiped the water stains off his beard. The water arrows were so thick and large, they must be good stuff.

"After a year of exploration, I finally have some experience."

With the help of the golden finger, the scales of the big black carp are brightly colored and the body is plump and strong.

"I'll give you 10 spirit stones, 87 spirit sands, and the same contribution points. Thank you for your contribution to the family."

The elder made a record and asked someone to bring the spirit stone to Li Quanqing.

If these big bluefish were transported to those immortal cultivation markets, they could definitely be sold at a high price of 15 spirit stones.

But apart from the long journey, although the family’s purchase price is low, there are corresponding contribution points.

10.87 points of family contribution, plus spirit stones, is equivalent to double the price.

After collecting the spirit stones, Li Quanqing walked out of the Changqing Palace and headed towards the west of the island.

He planned to go to the Sutra Library to learn the subsequent scriptures of "Golden Water Secrets" and then buy some fishing bait.
