``` Before long, the giant creature imprisoned by the hook was hauled onto the Soul Boat, directly occupying a vast stretch of space. Even the seawater clinging to it raised the deck several inches.
Once this Body Transformation Monster had been suppressed back into its original form and likewise turned into a Boundary Abyss Sea Soul Pearl of Six-Ring Dao Grade, you took out the Gathering Spirit Pearl and released Samadhi Divine Fire to burn away the excess water on the Soul Boat.
Compared with directly using the Water Dao Law to collect that peculiar seawater, simply drying it out saved far more effort and barely consumed any of your condition.
The successive gains of you and Lu Wushuang also left the other four itching with impatience. Aside from the two treasures you had obtained, only the "Three-Cauldron Immortal Food Shell" from your previous catch and the "Shape Sparrow Crystal" from Snow Emperor's seventh rod were worth mentioning.
But Snow Emperor clearly would not be satisfied with that. She began considering whether to cast her special bait into the water as well and experience the sensation of hooking a giant creature herself!
That thought had barely surfaced before it was dismissed, because you planned to control the Soul Boat and accelerate, changing from a slow drift to swift travel.
Just as you had previously guessed, both Jin Chang Geng and Snow Emperor felt that the surrounding sea was no longer suitable for fishing. The underwater monsters here had begun to grow wary.
You did not feel this particularly strongly, but the other two believed their hooking speed had slowed considerably. With the mindset of believing it rather than dismissing it, you chose to trust their judgment.
But even if you had wanted to oppose it, it would have been useless.
