Steady Cultivation: Starting With the Perk “Work Hard, Rest Hard” Chapter 572: Fishing for the Chaos
Previously on Steady Cultivation: Starting With the Perk “Work Hard, Rest Hard”...
Su Yuan continued to nurture ambitions for grasping the Chaos True Intent.
Having witnessed Taihao's fierce battle and holding onto the Dao Scripture bestowed by Taihao, he knew Taihao had attained the staggering height of seventy percent Chaos True Intent. Through steady comprehension, Su Yuan could make progress too.
In this timeframe, his mastery had surged from 1.7% to 1.8%, at an impressively rapid rate.
Yet right now, his biggest shortfall turned out to be Chaos Jade Marrow.
He inspected the Chaos Jade Marrow yield from the Taihao Chaos. Per Kalpa, the Taihao Chaos generated 8.6 million pieces of Chaos Jade Marrow.
Split across nine portions, everyone received about one million pieces of Chaos Jade Marrow each.
This quantity was hardly insignificant.
Gathered across ages, it would amount to something truly massive.
Even this volume of Chaos Jade Marrow could spark fierce struggles among Chaos Dominators.
However, the Chaos Jade Marrow required by Su Yuan came in hundreds of billions. This paltry sum was woefully inadequate.At that instant, Su Yuan recalled the Chaos Dominator Artifacts he'd seized earlier.
He displayed them one after another in front of him.
These consisted of the Heavenly Fate Ruler, the Heaven-Shrouding Cloak, the Mysterious Fishing Rod, and the Myriad Transformation Fish Pond.
One came from the Heavenly Fate Child, while the other three originated from Taihao.
Su Yuan advanced with a single step, stepping into "Nothingness."
He retrieved the Heaven-Shrouding Cloak and draped it over his body first.
His aura shifted through multiple transformations, masking him in a different guise.
Next, he drew out the Myriad Transformation Fish Pond and flung it forward. It expanded into a pond-like expanse, yet its depths were endlessly spacious. For now, no treasures filled the pond.
Su Yuan mulled it over briefly, then waved casually, summoning three Chaos realms into view. These were his own Life-bound Chaos, with the Heavenly Fate Chaos and Taihao's Life-bound Chaos positioned on its flanks.
Su Yuan hurled the Heavenly Fate Chaos (that is, the Primordial Chaos) into the Myriad Transformation Fish Pond.
An incredible sight unfolded. The boundless Chaos realm morphed into an enormous fish inside the Myriad Transformation Fish Pond.
The fish displayed seven clear stripes on its form, hinting that the Heavenly Fate Chaos had ascended to seventh-grade Chaos status.
The Heavenly Fate Fish drifted mindlessly inside the Myriad Transformation Fish Pond, gulping pond water in and out of its mouth to gradually strengthen itself. Regrettably, not a single small fish occupied the pond.
Su Yuan tossed hundreds of Chaos Jade Marrow pieces into the pond, where they turned into hundreds of thumb-thick small fish.
The Heavenly Fate Fish yawned its jaws wide and gulped down those hundreds of small fish on pure instinct.
The Heavenly Fate Fish's dimensions stayed exactly the same; merely its aura edged up by the tiniest bit, maybe one part in hundreds of millions.
Su Yuan attempted drawing out the origin power from the Heavenly Fate Chaos, succeeding with total ease and zero hindrance.
Su Yuan reeled in the Heavenly Fate Fish, restoring it to a sprawling Chaos world. All creatures within remained untouched, carrying on with their existence unchanged.
"The effect of this Myriad Transformation Fish Pond is quite good. I wonder where Taihao fished it out from."
Su Yuan waved his hand leisurely, dropping all three Chaos realms into the Myriad Transformation Fish Pond at once, where they became the pond's three grandest giant fish. The Hao Chaos (namely, Taihao's Life-bound Chaos) boasted a complete set of thirty stripes. This Chaos realm had evolved into a full thirty-grade Chaos Universe.
Following that came the seventh-grade Heavenly Fate Chaos, and lastly Su Yuan's Life-bound Chaos with just one grade.
The trio of giant fish refrained from consuming one another, though it was plain to see Su Yuan's Life-bound Chaos exuded the strongest presence. A mere one-striped giant fish dwarfed even the Heavenly Fate Chaos in sheer size!
After experimenting with the Myriad Transformation Fish Pond.
Su Yuan invoked the Heavenly Fate Ruler, reshaping it into a compact chair that he set next to the Myriad Transformation Fish Pond.
As Su Yuan settled onto the small chair, infinite Heavenly Fate converged below him, granting him the ultimate Heavenly Fate across existence. Such Heavenly Fate probably stemmed from pushing the Fortune Dao Principle to Chaos Dominator heights, wildly over-the-top.
Su Yuan sensed his very thoughts turning into reality, with fortune favoring him in all things. Far from an illusion, this was a profoundly authentic and solid state.
Growing more confident, Su Yuan produced the Mysterious Fishing Rod and cast it lightly.
Once the fishhook sank into the water, it vanished right away, nowhere to be found in the depths of the Myriad Transformation Fish Pond.
Su Yuan had no clue where the fishhook had ended up.
This Mysterious Fishing Rod possessed the power to link with unknown Chaos realms!
The [World Traveler] perk enabled travel to random Chaos realms as well, though unpredictably. For now, Su Yuan preferred avoiding unnecessary risks; experimenting solely with the fishing rod would do.
The pond surface remained still without a single ripple. Initially mirroring Su Yuan's face, the water soon started to undulate gently, unveiling an entirely new sight.
The scene was one Su Yuan recognized well.
Incredibly, the fishhook emerged inside the treasury of the Taihao Holy Hall.
Materializing from nothing in the treasury, the fishhook quietly latched onto a Supreme Treasure.
Curious, Su Yuan shifted the fishhook's aim, and it effortlessly snagged another treasure.
As Su Yuan pulled back on the fishing rod, the treasure surfaced in the Myriad Transformation Fish Pond, morphing into a lively swimming fish.
The three massive fish rushed over at once, each glaring hungrily at the newcomer.
Su Yuan's Life-bound Chaos Giant Fish charged first toward the swimming fish, gulping it down whole before shaking its head and darting off into the distance.
The other two giant fish, realizing the prey was gone, sank back to the pond's bottom, breathing in and out the water steadily as they gradually grew stronger.
"Not bad at all. The Myriad Transformation Fish Pond eliminates any concerns over fished-up items. Hooked treasures instantly become swimming fish, devoured in a single bite. Utterly illogical!"
Su Yuan checked the Taihao Holy Hall's response, only to feel let down—no reaction whatsoever.
Thanks to the Heaven-Shrouding Cloak masking Su Yuan's presence, the Taihao Holy Hall's Guardian Spirit remained utterly oblivious. Such an overpowered effect!
Su Yuan tossed the fishhook out once more and resumed his fishing.
Plunging into the water, the fishhook stirred up plenty of ripples this time.
Now, the view shifted away from the Taihao Chaos to a totally alien Chaos realm.
This spot was obviously another treasury, stacked high with endless treasures neatly arranged inside protective arrays.
Su Yuan spotted several quasi-Dominator artifacts among them.
The sheer volume of treasures was staggering, surpassing ten million in count.
A grin tugged at Su Yuan's lips. Enlarging the fishhook, he hooked it lightly, causing every treasure in the treasury to shudder together!
He aimed to plunder the entire treasury's contents in one fell swoop!
Reeling in the rod, countless treasures flooded into the Myriad Transformation Fish Pond, instantly turning into swarms of swimming fish and even bigger ones!
Drawn by the frenzy, the three Chaos Giant Fish surged forward as one, their enormous jaws gaping wide to snap up the fish en masse.
Su Yuan's Life-bound Chaos Giant Fish proved the greediest, inhaling thousands of swimming fish in a single massive gulp.
The Life-bound Chaos Giant Fish kicked off rapid evolution and refinement, boosting its development at breakneck speed.
