With Wu Er, who has transformed into a straightforward boy, getting straight to the point, things quickly become clear.

The theme is—eating fish.

Led by Sima Nan and Sima Jingshan, Wu Er quickly arrived at the place where they were collecting fish.

This place is a small but secluded pool on the island. The water is clear and full of spiritual energy, making it an ideal place to nurture precious materials.

"This is where the rainbow fish are raised. Young man, go and get a few if you want. By the way, you have to catch them in the water, don't use magic to blast them, or you'll destroy this treasure land."

Sima Nan pointed to the deep pool, then smiled again.

This laugh prompted Wu Er to take a serious look at the secluded pool, realizing that the water in the pool was not so simple after all.

The water in the secluded pool is very cold, but it is not icy, which is quite peculiar.

Of course, even though this water doesn't freeze, it's hundreds or thousands of times colder than regular ice, and most cultivators couldn't withstand such cold.

Sima Nan didn't explain the problem, but directly told Wu Er to fetch it, clearly having something on his mind.

Wu Er didn't sense any malice from Sima Nan, so it seemed that he wanted to test Wu Er's cultivation level.

"Father, this pool of water..."

Sima Jingshan naturally knew the power of this pool of water, so she wanted to warn her.

"No need to say more." Sima Nan waved his hand to interrupt Sima Jingshan. "I think this young brother Zhang San is quite capable."

Wu Er remained expressionless, even though he secretly wanted to laugh.

Is this the trial in the novel? Do I have to learn some kind of cultivation technique in this pool of water?

After mentally complaining, Wu Er shrugged helplessly.

There's nothing you can do about this kind of plot; it just happens, and there's no "miracle" going to happen anyway.

"Can we catch as many fish as we want?"

Before going into the water to catch fish, Wu Er politely asked a question.

If Wu Er from the province caught all the fish, Sima Nan would regret it on the spot because he felt bad about it.

At this moment, Sima Nan still hadn't realized the seriousness of the situation and said with a smile, "Of course, as long as you have the strength to grab it, then take whatever you want."

He still naively believes that Wu Er cannot stay in this pool of water for too long.

"Oh, that's fine then."

Having received permission, Wu Er responded and then plunged into the pool.

Next comes the fun part: catching fish!

Since they said to take as much as you want, you should naturally take more.

Why wouldn't you take advantage of a good deal? Of course not!

One, two, three, four, five, six...

Once Wu Er entered the pool, he began catching fish as if he were sweeping through it.

Whenever I see a fish, no matter what kind it is, I grab it and throw it away forcefully.

The sound of splashing water was constant, and various fish were leaping out of the water, creating a spectacular scene.

Of course, this scene was shocking to the Sima family father and daughter.

What are they trying to do? They're trying to extinct the rainbow fish!

"Young man, please have mercy!"

Sima Nan's face was extremely ugly; he really wanted to slap himself in the face.

Why would you say you can take it anywhere? You're really underestimating me!

Although Sima Nan said to take whatever he wanted, he still swallowed his pride and said, "Young brother, could you perhaps release some fish fry for my Sima family?"

Perhaps Wu Er heard Sima's words, because a while later he jumped out of the dark pool.

When it came out, it created quite a splash, with water droplets rising into the air before falling back down, bringing with them a slight chill.

"Alright then, I'll take these. That should be enough to last me for a while."

Once ashore, Wu Er uttered these words.

Like Sima Jingshan, Sima Nan was also taken aback and asked in confusion, "Eat?"

This rainbow fish is a precious material; it's excellent for refining pills or for extracting its blood to forge weapons.

But wouldn't it be a waste to use this to eat?

"Yes, of course it's for eating. What else can this thing be used for besides eating?"

Wu Er said something that was the truth to him.

Sima Nan looked at the mountain of fish piled up on the shore, his lips twitching uncontrollably, clearly indicating that his emotions were in turmoil.

But since he'd already said it, there was no way he could take the fish back with him.

Furthermore, there's the behavior Wu Er just displayed.

Sima Nan's attitude towards him also changed drastically, placing Wu Er's cultivation level on the same level as his own.

"If you like it, then go ahead and eat it. I've never had it before, but it should taste pretty good when braised."

Sima Nan turned his head away and waved his hand reluctantly.

Wu Er didn't stand on ceremony and directly put all the fish into his Qiankun sleeve.

"Okay, I'm going to grill the fish over there. You guys get back to work!"

After collecting the fish, Wu Er smiled and said something before running off to the side.

Before the Sima father and daughter could recover, Wu Er disappeared.

...

Nothing tastes as good as grilled fish.

Wu Er arrived at a remote corner of the Sima family's island and found a few fish.

Looking out at the sea, Wu Er set up a makeshift barbecue grill and then gathered some dry grass to start a fire.

"That indescribable octopus has come out to eat fish."

After skewering the rainbow fish and grilling it over the fire, Wu Er called out to the sea again.

"Splash!"

The sound of water rippled through the air, and Cthulhu transformed back into a half-human form, with the upper body of a human and the lower body of an octopus.

Cthulhu landed on the shore and, upon seeing Wu Er, respectfully greeted him, "My lord!"
