"Shortening the side effects of Soul Skill? This is like a pillow delivered just when you're sleepy!"
After reading the information about the Body Refining Pill, Luo Can's eyes lit up, and he casually tossed the pill into his mouth.
The pill melted instantly upon entering his mouth, and a warm, crimson energy spread like a tide throughout his limbs and bones, tempering every inch of his muscles, bones, and flesh from the inside out. Compared to the previous Black-Grade Body Refining Pill, this Red Rank pill had a much more comprehensive tempering effect.
"Tsk, a bit prickly." Luo Can curled his lip, no longer paying much attention to the effects of the drug in his body. With a flick of his wrist, he cast the fishing hook back into the Fate-Defying Lake.
Time flowed slowly, and half an hour passed in the blink of an eye. Luo Can's Fishing had reached the twenty-third cast. This time, he only waited fifteen minutes before catching a piece of excellent quality, a 90,000-year -Left Leg Spirit Bone.
He had just casually stored the Spirit Bone into the System Space when the medicinal effects that had been continuously tempering his body subsided.
"Not bad, not bad. My physique has been strengthened by almost two times, and the cooldown time of the Ninth Spirit Ring has been reduced by a third." Luo Can nodded in satisfaction, stretched, cast his line again, and sat on the rock to wait quietly.
Before he knew it, Luo Can had already thrown his forty-second shot.
This time, after the hook sank, there was no movement for more than twenty minutes.
"Great! I just got home and I already got a huge catch!" Luo Can's face was full of joy. After waiting for two more minutes, the fishing line finally started bobbing up and down.
With a sudden burst of strength, he pulled the object out of the lake and onto the rock in front of him with a "plop".
It was a Soul Tool that looked like a metal ring.
Luo Can immediately began to examine the information about this Soul Tool.
[ Soul Tool: Spirit Ring Storage Device ]
[Grade: Level 8]
[Synopsis: This Level 8 Soul Tool developed by Xuan Ziwen, specifically designed to seal Spirit Ring. It already contains a Hundred Thousand Year Spirit Ring.]
"Hiss? My luck is too incredible! I caught an Level 8 Soul Tool with one fishing rod, and even got a Hundred Thousand Year Spirit Ring for free?" Luo Can couldn't help but gasp. He quickly picked up the metal ring and probed it with his spiritual power. Sure enough, he saw a bright red Hundred Thousand Year Spirit Ring quietly inside.
Luo Can was overjoyed. This must be some unlucky guy who had just risked his life to hunt down Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast, stored the Spirit Ring in it, and then was caught by Luo Can remotely.
[Ding! This Fishing has ended. Overall rating: Good+. Points: 15,000 points!]
[Current total Points: 485,500]
The system notification ended, marking the end of the five-hour daily Fishing session. Luo Can glanced at the Points panel, happily put away his fishing rod, and looked up at the horizon where the sun was slowly rising.
He got up and left the lakeside, heading towards the courtyard where his three disciples lived.
As soon as the courtyard gate was opened, Ye Lingling, Dugu Yan, and Xiao Xiao all turned to look at her.
Upon recognizing Luo Can, Xiao Xiao's eyes instantly reddened, and she rushed towards him almost with tears in her eyes. As she ran, blue arcs of electricity crackled from her body, and she crashed straight into his thigh with a "thud."
"Master! You have to do something about Master Ju Zi's wife! She... she tortures me every day!" The little girl looked up at him with a pitiful expression and complained, her hair crackling with electricity as she spoke.
Ye Lingling and Dugu Yan also came over. Hearing Xiao Xiao's tearful accusation, the two of them took a step back in perfect unison.
Luo Can reached out and touched the little girl's hair. It felt a bit prickly and had a tingling, electric sensation. He chuckled and coaxed, "Our Xiao Xiao is amazing! Your physical strength is now enough to absorb the First Spirit Ring of seven hundred years ago."
"Really? Really?" Xiao Xiao suddenly raised her head, her big eyes still filled with tears, and the electric arcs on her body crackled and popped incessantly with the fluctuations of her emotions, making her "electric eyes piercingly intense".
"Of course." Luo Can smiled and gently rubbed her cheek. "Master's wife is doing this for your own good. Just think, when you absorb a thousand-year-old First Spirit Ring, how prestigious will that be?"
"Waaah, that's true... but you can't do it like that!" Xiao Xiao pouted, looking even more aggrieved. "Master, look at me! I'm getting electric shocks all over my body, and my senior sisters won't play with me anymore!"
As soon as the words were spoken, Ye Lingling and Dugu Yan froze instantly, continuing to look up at the sky, pretending to admire the scenery.
Luo Can looked at them with a half-smile for a while before Dugu Yan finally couldn't take it anymore and muttered softly, "Who told Master Ju Zi to increase Xiao Xiao's electric current intensity every day... A few days ago they could still hold hands, but after that, even touching clothes would make them both bristle. It's painful and numb, who can stand it?"
Ye Lingling scratched her cheek sheepishly and whispered to Xiao Xiao, " Xiao Xiao, I'm making you Insulated Gloves. If they're finished, we won't be afraid of your electric shocks anymore."
"Master, look! They all look down on me!" Xiao Xiao pouted.
Luo Can gently stroked her head and soothed her softly, "Take it slow, you need to give your senior sisters some time to adjust. And don't worry, starting tomorrow, I won't let my wife increase the electric current for you anymore, okay?"
"Really?!" Xiao Xiao's eyes lit up instantly, her aggrieved expression vanished, and she excitedly grabbed his clothes.
"Of course it's true." Luo Can nodded, then turned to Ye Lingling and Dugu Yan, and said seriously, "You two, you also need to adapt to your junior sister's condition from now on. You must hold her hand for at least fifteen minutes every day, understand?"
The two exchanged a glance, hesitated for a moment, and then obediently nodded. "... Okay."
After calming the three little ones down, Luo Can carefully checked their cultivation progress.
Ye Lingling has already been able to accurately inscribe three level-two Soul Tool Array, and her Mysterious Heaven Skill has steadily entered the second level. Her soul power is about to break through level twenty-eight.
Dugu Yan has cultivated her Purple Poison Mark to a saturation point, and her understanding of the Myriad Poison Force has deepened considerably, making her fully capable of proceeding to the next stage of cultivation.
Even Xiao Xiao has reached the first level of Thunderclap Bombardment Fist, the Thunder Realm, and can barely resonate her soul power with lightning, giving her attacks a lightning attribute.
After checking his apprentices' homework, Luo Can went to the small island in the center of the Fate-Defying Lake to visit his goddaughters, who were like Immortal Herb.
The little ones haven't changed much, except that they've become more spiritually aware and can now quickly condense human-shaped energy phantoms. Moreover, nourished by the abundant life energy and spiritual energy of the Fate Defying Valley, they've spontaneously condensed quite a few primordial treasures.
"Dad! Dad! Look! This is the Blazing Glue I've condensed!" The phantom of the Cockscomb Phoenix Sunflower Luo Feng held up a piece of bright red, scorching gelatinous substance.
"Dad, this is my Inner Core, it can make me immune to all poisons!" Luo Youyou, the Aromatic Silk Beauty, rolled an irregularly shaped pink Inner Core in a leaf and handed it to him.
"Dad, this is my pollen, it can strengthen the body!" Singular Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum Luo Jinju was not to be outdone, and handed over a handful of golden pollen.
The other Immortal Herb also stuffed their painstakingly condensed essence treasures into his hands, their expressions practically saying, "Daddy, hurry up and refine me!" Luo Can found it both amusing and helpless.
"Alright, alright, I appreciate your kind gesture." Luo Can smiled and ruffled the little ones' hair. "Put these things away for now; Dad doesn't need them right now." He silently added in his mind: Besides, this amount is really not enough.
"Alright! Then we'll give them to Daddy when we've gathered even more treasures!" Upon hearing this, the little ones obediently returned their primordial treasures to their bodies.
Just then, Luo Can suddenly sensed that someone had passed through the Spatial Barrier of the Fate Defying Valley and entered the valley.
He looked up at the sky and saw two familiar figures slowly descending from the clouds.
