Using entries to cultivate immortality in chaotic times

Chapter 118 Worthy of the Adventure Secret Realm, He Likes It._4

But with Chen Qiu, there was a basis for comparison. Once there was a comparison, looking at the entry jade slip and Mid-grade Spirit Stones in Chen Qiu's hand, then at the low-grade Spirit Stones in their own hands, their hearts couldn't help but feel unsatisfied.

...

The Sixth Level.

One hundred Foundation Establishment ninth layer Fishman Monsters surrounded Chen Qiu in the middle. The number was doubled compared to the last time, and the requirement was still to kill within a hundred breaths, which meant needing to defeat a Fishman Monster in each breath.

The difficulty could almost be said to be at its maximum.

However, at the instant the fog panel of the sixth level dissipated, thousands of Thunder Dragons surged out, and everything once again turned to ashes.

It only took a few breaths' time.

Having just stepped off the deck, Chen Qiu was now striding back onto the deck with a splendid golden fishing rod in hand, a smile on his lips and a hint of regret as he made his way toward the edge of the deck.

He felt regret because after the golden fishing rod had once again improved in quality to the Pink Level, there was only a Seventh Level below deck, with no Eighth Level. This meant if he could upgrade the fishing rod to the Pink Level, there wouldn't be a level to allow him to elevate the rod to the Seven-colored Level.

And thus no chance to catch a seven-colored fish.

Just now, after seeing that lucky one who caught a Grey fish, with the selection panel in front of them showing a seven-colored fish, he thought there might be a Seven-colored fishing rod. He had been quite looking forward to what rewards the seven-colored fish might bring, but it now seemed the seven-colored fish probably didn't exist.

-

"Golden fishing rod."

"It can catch fish up to the Golden Level. To upgrade to the Pink Level, one must catch 'seven Golden fish' and pass the seventh challenge below deck."

-

Cast the rod!

After continuously catching two Green big fish and one Purple big fish, he finally caught the first Golden fish!

That fish transformed into an Eight Desolate Fruit and lay flat on the ground.

Almost immediately, before anyone had the chance to see, Chen Qiu had stuffed the Eight Desolate Fruit into the Jade Box inside his Storage Ring. He had not expected the Golden fish to transform into an Eight Desolate Fruit.

Lucky that no one saw.

If word got out that the Golden fish transformed into an Eight Desolate Fruit, even a fool would realize that in this Secret Realm, the Eight Desolate Fruit ranked higher than the entry jade slips and Mid-grade Spirit Stones.

The previously unsought Eight Desolate Fruits of Southern State would surely provoke a frenzy of purchasing.

Although he didn't know what use this item had, if the Secret Realm considered it to be more valuable than entry jade slips, one should surely buy first and ask questions later, gathering them up just in case they turned out to be useful later on—incurring riches. Those large families and Major Sects wouldn't mind spending thousands of Spirit Stones to buy some trinkets valued by the Heavenly Dao.

Golden fish were harder to catch.

Taking nearly half an hour, he had caught many kinds of fish, and finally managed to catch seven Golden big fish.

At that moment, in the Jade Box inside his Storage Ring, seven Eight Desolate Fruits lay quietly.

Just as the Jade Scroll described, shaped like an octagon, like enlarged star anise or carambola.

There was one hour left before the closure of the Secret Realm.

With no time to delay further, Chen Qiu stored the fishing rod in his Storage Ring and strode toward the last challenge inside the cabin, namely the Seventh Level.

...

"The Seventh Level, defeat two Golden Core first layer Fishman Monsters within a hundred breaths."

"..."

Chen Qiu's eyes narrowed slightly as he stood on the deserted deck, looking toward the two Fishman Monsters not far away, carrying the terrifying Golden Core Cultivation, feeling somewhat apprehensive.

This was the last level, the Seventh Level.

He was unsure whether the Golden Core Fishman Monsters would use a Divine Sense Attack; if they did, it would be difficult for him to withstand it.

In such situations, the best strategy was to strike first.

Almost immediately, he crushed two random white entry jade slips he had just fished, without even looking closely at the content of the entries, and at the moment the fog panel disappeared, he detonated the Self-Destruction Terms instantly.

Two Golden Core Peak cultivators unleashed the Thunder Summoning Technique with all their might, smiting the two Fishman Monsters like Heavenly Punishment the moment the cloud panel vanished.

The two Fishman Monsters didn't even have the chance to react before they were reduced to ashes on the spot.

"Phew..."

Chen Qiu let out a long breath, feeling relieved. Whether those two Golden Core Fishman Monsters hadn't had the chance to launch a Divine Sense Attack, or simply didn't possess such an Attack Method, either way, the last challenge had been surmounted.

Though it cost him two white entry jade slips that he had just fished up.

He hoped the rewards from the pink fishing rod wouldn't disappoint him.

With a glint of hope in his eyes, he looked toward the dissipating green smoke of the fallen Golden Core Fishman Monsters, hoping to see a Golden Core drop, but there was none—only waves of green smoke as the mist wrapped around the deck once again.

He found himself back at the entrance of the Seventh Level room, about to walk up to the deck, when he suddenly froze. His body turned stiffly towards an additional room that had appeared next to the seventh.

The Eighth Level.

The entrance to the room was a Seven-colored vortex, and he instinctively looked down at the pink fishing rod in his hand.

-

"Pink fishing rod."

"Can fish up to Pink Level fish species, to upgrade to Seven-colored Level must catch 'eight Pink Level fish species', and pass through the eighth hidden Seven-colored challenge beneath the deck cabin."

-

"Heh."

Chen Qiu looked at the Seven-colored vortex of the eighth room and couldn't help but smile, then without any hesitation, he quickly made his way onto the deck, eager to catch eight Pink Level fish and then see what kind of good items the Seven-colored fishing rod could reel in.

Crossing into a Foundation Establishment Adventure Secret Realm, he didn't expect the rewards to be so good.

As expected of an Adventure Secret Realm, he liked it.

...

Cast the rod!

Finally, after half an hour, he fished up his first Pink Level fish.

The extremely tender big fish fell on the deck and transformed into a pink Pill.

"Hmm..."

Chen Qiu pinched the pink Pill in his hand, observing it. To be honest, he had no idea what the Pill was for, which was what he hated most about such situations—getting something good without having any clue about its purpose.

He didn't even know if it was a poison pill.

"This..."

Meanwhile, the scholar who had been quietly fishing with a green fishing rod beside him suddenly had his eyes spark with a dazzling light and spoke with a trembling voice due to overwhelming excitement, "Brother Qiu, I recognize this Pill. Its whole body is pink, with the character for poison inscribed on its surface."

"It's a Heavenly Dao Detoxification Pill, capable of neutralizing all poisons."

"After I was poisoned, I had collected a lot of information about this kind of Pill, but I heard that it was a product from several versions of the Heavenly Dao ago, and it had long since vanished. I never expected to encounter it here today."

"Oh?"

Chen Qiu was somewhat surprised too, able to neutralize all toxins? That domineering?

Then he quickly realized, "Can it purge the poison within you?"

"Absolutely!!!"

"Pretty good."

Chen Qiu smiled, pulling out a Jade Box from his Storage Ring and stuffing the Pill inside. He then threw the Jade Box to the scholar, "Once we're out, find a spot to detoxify. After your Tao Foundation recovers and you seize the Sword Cultivator inheritance, I'll be counting on you for my third Nascent Soul body."

"Good luck."

His Nascent Soul body was only missing one piece now, and with the scholar, there seemed to be a prospect for obtaining the third. The scholar perfectly met the requirement of maintaining their initial intent through the rise and fall for the Sword Cultivator inheritance.
