"The situation is turning grim," one said.
"Hasn't it always been like this?" came the reply.
...
Eagles soar through the sky, fish dart in the shallow waters,...
"good!"
But then, the three of them were not so lucky. They found a lot of precious fish, shrimp and pearls, but none of them were things that cultivators could use.
They picked and chose, keeping only a few beads, intending to exchange them for gold and silver to support their daily meals.
The fairy searched around a coral reef. Many small fish hid inside the coral reef, like humans hiding in a city. They looked at the fairy as if she were a giant beast coming from the sea.
“Hey, what’s that?” Xu Ni suddenly asked.
Shenxian'er turned her head to look at the sound and saw a dark cloud in the far distance. There was a spiritual light flashing in the cloud, and it looked like a thundercloud.
"It's a school of anchovies!" Jiang Xiaoyue exclaimed.
She was unaware that silver-ringed snakes lived in groups, but she had been exposed to some common and well-known monsters since childhood.
"Are you sure it's anchovies?" Xu Ni asked in shock.
Even the immortals swallowed their saliva.
"Illustrated Compendium of Five Hundred Low-Level Monsters of Wangyue Lake": Phoenix Tail Fish, in large numbers, appear in groups, with schools reaching hundreds of meters in width, having the power to block out the sun. Eating them is good for your complexion.
Fish bones are the main ingredient in Tier 1 Beauty Elixir and a secondary ingredient in Tier 2 Beauty Elixir.
Anchovies, one spirit stone per pound.
"Go!" Xu Ni spread her arms and kicked her legs, ready to swim across in a breaststroke.
Jiang Xiaoyue grabbed her arm: "Someone has already discovered it. It's very dangerous for us to go over there."
"It's alright, the school of fish is so big, we'll just steal a few hundred pounds from the corner and leave!" Xu Ni said.
Jiang Xiaoyue hesitated.
"Are you really willing to do that?" Xu Ni asked anxiously.
Jiang Xiaoyue gritted her teeth: "Fine, but if I tell you to leave, you have to leave."
"I'll do whatever you say!"
The three of them rushed over quickly.
The further we swam, the bigger the dark clouds became. When we got closer, they were indeed just as described in the book, hundreds of meters wide!
One spirit stone for every pound! How much money is that!
Among the fish were many cultivators, all of whom followed the gold mine with crazed expressions.
"Spirit stones! Spirit stones!" Xu Ni went crazy, grabbed the fish basket and started scooping, scooping up a whole bunch in one go.
Jiang Xiaoyue and Shen Xian'er's hearts were pounding. Just this one blow probably weighed ten jin, which is ten spirit stones!
Without any effort required, even just opening the fish basket will attract countless anchovies to swim inside.
"Why did I only prepare one fish basket?!" The fish basket was quickly filled.
"Nizi, let's go!" Aside from the initial shock and excitement, Jiang Xiaoyue was constantly on edge.
Xu Ni didn't come back. When Jiang Xiaoyue looked up, she saw that the girl was actually eating with her mouth open!
"Beauty! Beauty! Beauty!" Xu Ni shouted as she swallowed the anchovy.
"Let's go!" Jiang Xiaoyue shouted.
Xu Ni then flew out of the school of fish, her belly already round and full.
The three quickly moved away, and had not swum a short distance when five figures suddenly shot out from the coral reef beneath them.
"Leave the fish basket behind!"
The magical artifacts floated in the air, and the talismans were held in their hands. The five people had ferocious and menacing expressions, exuding a chilling killing intent.
The three little ones' expressions changed drastically; it was the first time they had encountered something like this.
[Good, good, good! Murder and steal! Murder and steal!] Li Changzhou became excited.
