Chapter 338 Li Yu Fishing in the Misty Sea
Chapter 338 Li Yu Fishing in the Misty Sea
Everyone present here is God’s chosen one, often possessed and favored by divine entities, or rewarded and blessed, and each of them has a very high status in their hometown.
But it does not mean that you are rich enough to ignore all rare resources!
For example, Star Marrow.
This thing is extremely rare even in the boundless spiritual world.
It can be used as a "universal currency".
Its benefits are countless.
Among the mission rewards offered by the three tribes, the Metamorphosis, Shadow Devourer, and Snail Bone, Star Marrow is not the rarest one and can only be said to be a common reward.
Even rarer and more exciting items for the guests include "star cores", "divine origins", "ancient god flesh and blood" and so on.
No matter which one, it will help them to improve their strength.
Of course, the price to be paid is also extremely high, almost tantamount to suicide.
For example, there is a task called [Breaking Traps], which requires breaking the traps on the way to the world barrier of the magic ship. Every time one is broken, a star core can be obtained. This thing is enough to be used as a power supply for the super battleship and will last for tens of thousands of years without decaying.
However, no guest would accept it.
When they were on the Pioneer, the intelligent computer had already told everyone some of the secrets.
"The 'trap' set by the six true gods is so dangerous that even a real divine entity would die if they accidentally stepped into it, let alone the chosen ones like them."
"The simplest type is called: Haotian Pit."
"If you step in, your body will be pierced by the myriad Haotian divine radiances. Those below the level of demigod will die instantly."
"So no matter how generous the benefits are, no one dares to accept them."
"On the contrary, tasks such as finding a path, patrolling the World Tree, curing lesions, providing supplies, leaving bloodlines... etc. can be completed in a short time."
"Hmm? There's a weird thing mixed in."
Li Yu and everyone else stared at the three task lists and soon discovered that some of the tasks were quite strange.
The task of leaving behind a bloodline sounds like a sensual thing that could leave offspring or something.
However, there are always three immortals on this magic boat.
This means that it is most likely not just for seed preservation, and no one will choose it.
Fortunately, Xu Xuan, the follower of the "Alien Lord", did not participate in the maiden voyage of the Kaituo, otherwise he would have most likely been the first to rush out.
Different from other God's chosen ones!
Li Yu had no interest in helping the ancient magic boat break the seal of the six righteous gods.
Although he can no longer be considered an "undercover righteous god", in terms of his stance, he leans towards the righteous gods.
After all, it’s not hard to choose at all!
Although the six righteous gods also have hidden secrets, there are also strange and terrifying places such as the intestines of the evil god.
But compared with the style of the evil gods, it is much better.
It is true that Li Yu was born in Wanfu City, but his soul came from the Earth in his previous life, and he has an innate liking for the Order camp.
So when other God's chosen ones and racial representatives were extremely excited to accept those well-paid tasks.
He simply skipped over the relevant information and turned to look at those slightly special, safe, and beneficial tasks.
There are not many of this kind.
So, it’s also easy to choose.
In the blink of an eye, Li Yu picked one:
"Collection mission!"
"Because the three tribes of the Demon Boat are all immortal species, even though reproduction is difficult, as time goes by, the number of tribes is still increasing. Therefore, the resources and food consumed are also constantly expanding, and gradually exceeding the load."
"Fortunately, there are some special areas inside and outside the magic boat, where we can get a lot of food."
"Such as the skull of the ancient god, the filthy world tree itself, the sea of mist... and so on."
"The food in the first place is the brain of the ancient god. It is extremely delicious, and there is a chance to obtain some of the ancient god's memories after eating it. However, it is extremely dangerous to obtain it, and one must face the pollution of the ancient god. Because this ancient god died too tragically and has deep resentment, even a demigod-level existence cannot resist the radiation in his brain for a long time. After being mined for so many years, there is still no sign of depletion."
"The second one is easy to understand. The roots and branches of the filthy world tree have spread to some unknown places. It is inevitable that some terrifying creatures will follow them into the world tree and settle down... Hunting them is not only for the magic boat's self-defense, but also a source of food."
"The third place is in the 'tree core' at the top of the World Tree. It was once a huge lake formed by an ancient battlefield. Later, due to the growth of the World Tree, it was lifted to a higher place and came into contact with the World Barrier and even the Infinite Spirit Realm. Moreover, the Eternal Mist permeated through the gap, so it was called the Sea of Mist."
"In addition to an extremely complete food chain, there are also a large number of ancient relics, incomplete artifacts, or invasive alien species."
"The Misty Sea is also an important source of food for the three tribes of the Demon Boat."
"However, due to the existence of the Eternal Mist, once you fall into it, there is almost no chance of getting out, even if you are as strong as a demigod."
"So the three tribes used the 'fishing method' to catch food from it."
"Giant fish with divine powers, such as the Nine-Headed Dragon Monster, the Blood Moon Ray, and the Thousand-Eyed Whale, are all delicacies that the three tribes love very much."
"It's just that it's very difficult to catch these big fish. It's all based on luck. Skills and strength are meaningless in front of the Eternal Mist."
“Even if the patriarchs and high priests of the three tribes go there, they often catch nothing.”
"What's more, besides fish, any garbage or waste from the ancient battlefield can be caught."
"Of course, the sea is not full of garbage. There are also many ancient treasures."
"The leader of the Snail Bone Tribe once fished up an ancient stone tablet that contained an article on the Star Devouring Divine Art, which increased his power once again."
……
From how clearly Li Yuguan saw it, we can know his choice.
Sure enough, the next moment he took the initiative to step forward and speak.
Then it was questioned.
"Ok?"
"You are a human being. Although you are a believer of the Lord of the Veil, I'm afraid you don't have the ability to fish anything out of the [Misty Sea]."
"You know, even the weakest 'Ghost Lantern Angler' has extremely strong power, enough to drag you to the bottom of the sea, and you will never be able to return."
"Why don't you choose tasks like saving seeds or playing with others, so as not to waste fishing rods, fishing lines and bait, rather than losing your life."
The high priest of the Metamorphosis Clan seemed to be admonishing Li Yu with good intentions.
But in reality, his words were full of contempt.
The melted wax eyes were also filled with malice towards Li Yu.
It's not targeting Li Yucheng Lord's identity.
It was directed at his race.
Human race!
The three immortal species of the Demon Boat all hate the human race immensely, even though one of their ancestors in an extremely long time ago was the human race.
The reason was also explained by Pioneer Intelligent Brain:
"All three tribes are hybrids. If we trace our bloodlines back to the three star gods and humans, we can trace them back to their origins."
"But they certainly don't have the slightest sense of identity with the weak human race. Originally, they could have followed the 'Father God' and the 'Mother God' and ascended to the Kingdom of God, but they were forcibly intercepted because of the human blood in their bodies."
"The Ancient Demonic Boat is quite powerful, but in their own eyes, it is the same as being imprisoned here."
Li Yu knew all this, so he was not surprised.
But he didn't back down and pushed back:
"Life and death are my own business."
"According to the agreement, I can accept any mission, and you cannot refuse."
"Besides, I'm not just going to the [Misty Sea] to fish, I'm also going to the [Ancient God's Skull] to dig out his brains."
"As for how I can go, I have the magic of splitting myself into two."
The moment he finished speaking, Li Yu gave a thrilling performance.
The forehead cracked, blood and flesh were blurred, and thousands of mucus threads burst out, and then it split into two like some kind of turbellarian.
Li Yu was not afraid of the power of the God of Vortex being exposed.
This scene also made the "transformed Taoist" gain more knowledge and change his tone:
"Humph!"
"Since you want to die, who can stop you?"
"If you can really catch a big fish and dig out its brain, my magic boat will definitely not give you a penny less in reward."
At the end of the conversation, Li Yu also took on the collection task.
Gained an hour of fishing time!
An hour of brainstorming time!
Therefore, he was also assigned two sets of equipment, or magic weapons.
They are all made of special materials.
Afterwards, the two "Li Yu" were sent to the foggy sea at the highest point of the magic ship, and the skull of the ancient god at the deepest part of the magic ship respectively.
The reason why he had to split himself was to go to two places to complete the task at the same time.
The reason is simple!
It is a suitable profession and the benefits are attractive.
There is no need to say much about fishing. After he was promoted to the True Lord of Bait, he could be said to be the most professional fisherman in the extraordinary world. Even his fishing line was made of the divine spider silk of the "Spider Queen".
Moreover, the so-called contaminating radiation from the ancient god's brain was completely suppressed by his soul of truth. It would be totally unjustifiable not to take advantage of it.
Li Yu certainly looked down upon those so-called big fish and the delicacy of their brains.
What really excited him were the derivatives and incidental benefits.
"The ancient treasure in the misty sea!"
"Some of the memories in the ancient god's brain."
"I suddenly have a feeling that I will reap great benefits from this trip."
……
When Li Yu felt that he was falling, he had already appeared at the top of the World Tree.
He was sent up directly by the high priest of the Snail Bone Tribe using the "anti-gravity technique", and the experience was like taking a super long elevator.
When I felt a little dizzy, a miraculous scene appeared in my eyes.
What lies before my eyes seems to be a foggy world.
Up and down, left and right, it was completely covered and enveloped by the familiar eternal fog.
Only the central area is empty.
One by one, the black and gold "branches of the world tree" penetrated the fog, layer upon layer, without any order, stretching across the height of nothingness.
All the branches were wrapped with bells and hung with bronze lamps.
Just as Li Yu was about to take a closer look, he suddenly heard the voice of "Lord Luo":
"Boy!"
"After an hour, if you haven't lost your footing or been dragged into the Misty Sea by some big fish, ring the bell yourself and I will cast a spell to take you down."
"During the fishing period, do not run around. You will not be protected if you leave this area. If you encounter some powerful monsters that escaped from the Infinite Spirit Realm, the Void Trap, the Six Paths of Reincarnation, etc. on the World Tree and are killed, our Demon Boat will not bear any responsibility."
"By the way, this fishing spot I arranged for you is the easiest to catch the Nine-Headed Dragon Monster, which is my favorite big fish."
"That's it. If you can catch it, I will buy it with a large sum of money."
As the words fell, an illusion that was clearly created by Venerable Luo appeared in front of Li Yu's eyes.
That is the so-called nine-headed dragon monster!
It was a giant fish as big as a city, with nine dragon-like skulls.
Its hideous and terrifying appearance reminded Li Yu of the king of monsters he had seen in a monster movie in his previous life.
It is hard to imagine what kind of fishing rod and fishing line can pull up such a big fish.
The phantom disappeared, and Li Yu was standing on an extremely thick branch.
He did not respond to Venerable Luo and continued to look around this extraordinary place.
Under the illumination of the bronze demon lamp!
Li Yu first glanced at the "fog sea" below, which was actually a boundless ocean shrouded by a thin layer of fog.
Faintly, one can hear the sound of the surging sea, the endless roars of monsters, and the rustling whispers...
"An ocean that exists in the core of the World Tree?"
"In terms of magnificent miracles and terrifying scenes, if we don't include the three forbidden areas, Wanfu City is completely defeated by the Ancient Demonic Boat."
Li Yu sighed and then looked up again.
It was also luck that allowed him to see through the gap in the fog and see the bizarre and dangerous world barrier that completely confused the concepts of time and space. With just a glance, Li Yu felt an extremely terrible threat.
Even in his current state, if he entered the world barrier, it would be difficult for him to survive.
The most common danger is called "Cosmic Light".
It is everywhere and appears without any pattern.
Once hit, no matter whether it is a living thing or a dead thing, it will decay or die of old age in the blink of an eye.
Even though Li Yu possessed a rare treasure like the [Zhou Yao Compass], he would still die if he was hit a few more times.
Not to mention that in addition to the normal dangers, the six great gods have added extra ingredients to the mix.
We can say with certainty:
If the true God comes in, there will be a narrow escape from death.
If a demigod-level strongman enters, he will die.
A truly dangerous place.
"Even if we have the help of these chosen ones of the gods, and can secretly summon a group of evil gods to help open up the passage, the Ancient Demonic Boat still cannot completely open up the external passage in a short period of time, let alone coerce the six righteous gods to confirm their legal status and become a foreign trade area."
"The six great gods took the initiative, which is why they were able to rule the world for so many years."
"So, what exactly are these evil gods, the Lord of the Curtain, the Ancient God, and Wanbian... going to do?"
"What are the specific details of the ancient war among the gods?"
"What great secret is hidden in this world?"
Every time a question popped up in Li Yu's mind, he became more excited.
He had originally given up on archaeological explorations for the time being.
After planning to return to Wanfu City!
Meet up with Hongdou and the little robot, then find a way and the right time to escape completely.
Although it is not easy to survive in the boundless spiritual world, the real world, which is obviously about to undergo tremendous changes, is even more dangerous.
But now that there is an opportunity to gain something, Li Yu will not miss it.
“Even if I could catch fish, I wouldn’t.”
"If you want to fish, fish for trash and treasures that hold ancient secrets."
"I don't need any Star Devouring Magic, just give me a stone tablet that records the secrets of the war among the gods."
"It would be better for me to figure out what this group of messy divine entities are doing."
