Chen Xuan stared blankly at the fishing rod in Old Xin's hands, feeling somewhat bewildered. "A Celestial Messenger needs a fishing rod to catch a few fish?" he thought. Is it really necessary?
Perhaps sensing Chen Xuan's confusion, Old Xin chuckled and said proudly, "Xiao Chen, the Silver Fish in the Holy Spirit Lake are extremely elusive. Without disturbing that great being, there’s almost no way to catch them. That's why I've resorted to this method."
"Don't underestimate this fishing rod," he continued. "It was crafted by a significant figure in the celestial realm. No fish can escape its magic! Once I drop the hook, it won’t be long before a fish bites."
"Really?" Chen Xuan still had some doubts.
Old Xin smiled and said nothing, looking as if he was eager for Chen Xuan to witness the spectacle.
With a flick of his wrist, Old Xin cast the hook several meters away. Within five seconds, the fishing rod suddenly trembled. Without hesitation, Old Xin yanked it up with a swift motion, and with a splash, a palm-sized Silver Fish leaped out of the water!
The silver scales of the fish glimmered beautifully under the sunlight, creating an enchanting sight. For a moment, Chen Xuan felt as if he were gazing at a silver ocean.
The fishing line quickly reeled in, pulling the Silver Fish along with it towards Old Xin.
With a splash, Old Xin caught the Silver Fish in his hands and gently removed the hook before carefully placing it into the Qiankun Bowl.
After finishing this task, Old Xin smiled with satisfaction. "This Silver Fish is unique to the Holy Spirit Lake. While it may not have any special effects, its flesh is incredibly tender and delicious—truly a delicacy that many esteemed figures have long admired."
As he spoke, Old Xin cast the hook out again.
Chen Xuan stood silently beside Old Xin, quietly watching him fish. Indeed, as Old Xin had said, this seemingly ordinary fishing hook had a terrifying effect; as long as the hook was dropped into Holy Spirit Lake for no more than five seconds, a Silver Fish would be caught. The ease with which Old Xin fished left Chen Xuan dumbfounded.
Chen Xuan thought to himself that if this Fishing Rod were seen by those fishing enthusiasts, they would probably go bankrupt just to buy it! In no time at all, Old Xin had caught a total of ten Silver Fish and was finally satisfied enough to stop.
With a cheerful demeanor, Old Xin patted the Qiankun Bowl and said, "All done! We can return to the Immortal Realm now!" As he spoke, he began to put away the Fishing Rod. However, his gaze shifted to Chen Xuan standing nearby. After a moment's thought, Old Xin handed the Fishing Rod to Chen Xuan.
"Huh?" Chen Xuan was puzzled. "What is this for?"
Old Xin smiled and said, "This Fishing Rod is of no use to me. If it weren't for today’s fishing trip, I wouldn’t have used it much at all. Since you’re here at Holy Spirit Lake, I’ll just give it to you. If you ever want to taste the fish from this lake, go ahead and catch one. I assure you, the Silver Fish is quite delicious."
"I'm not interested in fishing," Chen Xuan declined.
"Then just hold onto it for now. I’ll definitely come back here in a few days," Old Xin insisted, pressing the Fishing Rod into Chen Xuan's hands.
With no choice but to accept it, Chen Xuan took the Fishing Rod reluctantly. The two of them walked outside together.
As they passed by a mound of seedlings, Old Xin suddenly changed his expression and stopped in his tracks.
"What’s wrong?" Chen Xuan asked curiously.
After pondering for a moment, Old Xin slowly replied, "Xiao Chen, I appreciate what you've done today; I can't just take advantage of you like this. How about this: I have a brother who is the guardian of Pandora Garden in the Immortal Realm. Wait here for a moment; let me ask him if I can get you some benefits."
"Ah!" Chen Xuan exclaimed in surprise, his mind spinning with confusion.
