Chapter 100: First try of sky fishing (please read) I tried again, and found that the fishing line no longer dissipated under the attack of the evil spirit. Gu Yuanqing had an epiphany. Just as controlling objects must be combined with observing the mountains, sky fishing also requires a combination of observing the mountains and controlling objects. As his mind moved, he continued to activate the power of Heavenly Fishing, and a wisp of Tao essence transformed into a fishing hook and bait. He didn't know if it was good luck, but not long after the Dao Yun took shape, Gu Yuanqing was about to carefully comprehend the changes brought about by the blessing of the Tiandiao ability, and how Guanshan Yuwu resisted the invasion of evil spirits. Something bit the bait, the line straightened, and the rod sank slightly. Before Gu Yuanqing could lift the rod, the fishing line formed by his true essence and divine consciousness suddenly broke, and he lost his sense of the Tao. He was stunned for a moment, then shook his head and smiled. “It seems that even with the combination of Guanshan and Yuwu, it is enough to resist the invasion of evil spirits, but this fishing line is still too fragile. I still need to work on my true essence and divine will.” He thought about it for a moment, and a new fishing line fell. The difference from the previous one is that this fishing line is made up of three tiny true essences woven together.
The fishing line sank into the Demon Realm again, and a new hook and bait were quickly formed. However, this time, before Gu Yuanqing could prepare himself mentally, the bait was swallowed by the "fish" in the Demon Realm, and the fishing line broke immediately again. Moreover, through divine sense and judging from the breath, this "fish" was clearly the same one as before! Gu Yuanqing raised his eyebrows. "You have tasted the sweetness and are here to stay, right? But, it's a good opportunity, I'll use you as a training ground." Gu Yuanqing lowered his fishing line again. This time the fishing line was woven from seven tiny strands of true energy. Judging from what happened just now, the woven fishing line was obviously more resilient than a single strand of true energy. This time, Dao Yun had just achieved success and the prey swallowed the bait, and the fishing line broke again. However, Gu Yuanqing could clearly feel the pulling force, just like the iron wire had become steel wire, which could naturally withstand greater force. He already had some preliminary guesses about Tiandiao in his mind. That is to refine the true essence and divine will, and to realize the application of the true essence and divine will in the competition with the prey. At the same time, there seems to be another mystery in transforming the Tao into bait, but the mystery can only be comprehended in detail later. The most important thing now is how to make the fishing line tougher, otherwise it is not fishing, but giving food to the prey in vain. Gu Yuanqing used the method of controlling objects to assist the changes in his true energy, allowing each strand of true energy that came out of his body to become thinner and more resilient. He was no longer in a hurry to lower the fishing line into the Demon Realm, but first tried how many strands of true energy he could manipulate to weave at the same time. After a stick of incense, Gu Yuanqing looked at the fishing line in front of him, which was as thick as his thumb, and fell into deep thought. The fishing line in front of you is woven from fifty strands of true essence! Gu Yuanqing originally thought that with his control over true energy and the ability to control objects, controlling hundreds of strands of true energy would be a piece of cake. However, when he actually tried to do it, he found that this was not the case. As more and more true essence is added, if one is distracted for a moment during weaving, they will merge with each other. In order to stabilize its characteristics, more energy has to be put into controlling it. At the same time, the thickness of each strand of true energy drawn out cannot be controlled to the original appearance. At this point, Gu Yuanqing felt that if he wrapped a strand of true energy around it, the entire woven fishing line would quickly merge into one and become a pure strand of true energy. “No wonder the introduction of Tian Diao says that the thread is based on divine will. This seemingly weaving of true essence is actually a consideration of one’s own control over divine will, which is the art of multitasking.” "As for this step, it is actually a further improvement of my ability to control objects. If I hadn't practiced multitasking when controlling objects before, I would have lost absolute control of my true essence after weaving more than ten strands. After all, these true essences are of the same origin, and when they come into contact with each other, they will merge into one." At this point, Gu Yuanqing had a better understanding of various blessings.
Observing the mountains will strengthen your spiritual consciousness and help you realize the essence of Taoism. Controlling things is to control things with thoughts, and controlling the Tao with thoughts. Both are the basis of cultivation. The method of sky fishing is the application and practice based on the two! This step at the moment is only the initial link. In the future, in the contest with the "fish", you will need to fight with wits, courage and tactics, and thus perfect your various abilities, which is the real practice. Gu Yuanqing smiled slightly. "Fishing in the mountains is a great way to relax and practice at the same time. It's really interesting." "However, should we try putting this fishing line into the Demon Realm? With such a thick line, even the dumbest fish would think there is something wrong with it, right?" "Well, let's give it a try. We have put in so much effort, we can't just give up like this. Even if we can't catch any fish, we can use this to see how the method of controlling objects blessed by Beiquan Mountain can resist evil spirits." Thinking of this, he lowered his fishing rod, and the thumb-thick fishing line sank into the devil's realm. In the demonic realm. The bloody sun dyed the entire earth red. In the wilderness, a sturdy wild boar, more than ten feet tall, was eating mountain weeds. It was fat and strong, with a shiny black body, three-foot fangs in its mouth, and its oily green pupils flickered with a faint light. From time to time, it turned its head and stared at a place in the mountains, recalling the delicious food just now. It was now drooling. After eating those wild fruits that appeared out of thin air, it felt comfortable all over its body. They were better than anything it had ever eaten. So, even after so much time has passed, I still can't bear to leave this place. Suddenly, it smelled an alluring aroma. It turned its head and saw that the pink fruit had reappeared. The dark brown soil on the ground was kicked all over the sky by its four feet. It rushed over and bit off the fruit in one bite. As for the transparent rope as thick as a thumb that came out of the void and approached it, it simply ignored it. After biting off the fruit, it turned its head and shook it hard, but found that it could not break the rope. It was a little angry, and twisted its body and head, shaking it violently. But at this moment, he suddenly felt a hook piercing his flesh, and the rope pulled him up, lifting half of his body upside down. The severe pain made his whole body stiff. On Beiquan Mountain, Gu Yuanqing's eyes lit up. This time the fishing line was indeed not broken. At that moment, the huge pulling force coming from under the clouds caused his body to lean forward. "You're quite strong! Now that you've taken the bait, I won't let you get away this time!" The shadow of Beiquan Mountain emerged and was added to the fishing rod as his thoughts progressed. At this moment, he was like a mountain standing firmly. No matter how much force came from the fishing rod, it was useless. Through the perception of divine consciousness, Gu Yuanqing could feel that the fishhook formed by the essence of Tao, true essence, and divine consciousness not only pierced the prey's body, but also directly hooked the prey's soul. The intense pain coming from deep within the soul directly dissipated most of the prey's strength, and even less than one-third of its physical strength could be exerted. Gu Yuanqing had originally planned to pull and release the line like a real fisherman, let the fish hang out for a while, let it become exhausted before reeling it in, but it seemed that this was no longer necessary. The fishing rod was lifted, the true energy was retracted, and a huge prey was lifted up. "It turned out to be a wild boar. Its head is really big!" The wild boar was still struggling, but once it came out of the clouds and entered the boundaries of Beiquan Mountain, it was completely suppressed. Coupled with the severe pain in its soul, it was unable to exert any strength at all.
