God-Tier Fishing System

The news spread like wildfire across the Azure Origin Dao Sect, stirring a frenzy of envy and jealousy among the disciples.

They whispered and gossiped, eyes flickering with admiration and resentment alike.

Everyone knew Elias had recently received guidance from Master Ethan, a rare and precious opportunity that could chart the course of his cultivation destiny.

After Ethan left the Serene Mirror Lake, his path led him to the peak, where he sought out the Peak Master of the place.

With a bow and a nod, he greeted the peak master and gently requested that he look after Elias carefully.

The Peak Master readily agreed, his face softening at Ethan's plea—understanding the responsibility of shaping young talents.

Returning to his residence, Ethan noticed a familiar figure standing quietly before his courtyard door.

It was Junior Sister Liana.

She had grown since the last time he saw her—taller, more poised. Her silver hair fell gracefully, her temperament extraordinary and mature.

She was no longer the bright-eyed girl of old but a beautiful woman who had captured the attention and hearts of many across the realm.

"Senior Brother Ethan!" Liana's voice rang out, bright and cheerful.

Upon seeing him, Liana skipped forward, waving energetically.

Though maturity had transformed her, before Ethan she still seemed the carefree little girl she had always been, free of worries or masks.

"Junior Sister Liana, you've grown even more beautiful," Ethan remarked gently.

"Hehe, thank you, Senior Brother!" Liana smiled brightly, the warmth of her affection clear.

"Senior Brother Ethan, I have some news for you!" Liana's eyes sparkled with urgency.

"What news?" Ethan asked, intrigued.

"The Treasure Appraisal Conference held every fifty years in Myriad Treasures Pavilion is about to begin!" she exclaimed.

Ethan's expression instantly grew serious.

The Myriad Treasures Pavilion was a mysterious and powerful organization specializing in the trade and auction of cultivation resources, spanning the entire Oceanreach Continent.

Every half-century, they held grand appraisal conferences, drawing cultivators and sects from far and wide.

"Their strength and influence are beyond imagining," Liana explained.

"The conference will be held here in Skyreach Territory. It's the best opportunity for acquiring rare and exotic treasures."

"Brother Ethan, don't you lack treasures? This is the perfect chance," she added with a knowing smile.

Ethan rubbed Liana's head fondly. "If you're serious, you can come and have dinner with me tonight."

"Hehe, I'm looking forward to the food cooked by Senior Brother Ethan!" Liana's happiness was palpable.

"The conference will be in Noble Sun City, north of the Azure Origin Dao Sect. Almost all the powers in Skyreach Territory will send representatives. Even cultivators from the Holy Land of Endless Mountains will be there," she warned cautiously.

Ethan's face darkened.

The Holy Land of Endless Mountains was the supreme power in the territory—a super giant whose heritage rivaled and even surpassed that of the Vernal Dawn royal family.

The four major sects were merely younger siblings to this colossal force.

Located centrally in Skyreach Territory, the Holy Land encompassed numerous noble families, each with strength and foundations comparable to the great sects.

Indeed, the appraising conference at Noble Sun City promised a gathering of prodigies and powerhouses.

Ethan's heart stirred with excitement and fierce curiosity.

Who among them could truly match the peerless geniuses from the Holy Land?

Liana continued earnestly, "Besides the Skyreach cultivators, there will likely be strangers from distant places—Vernal Dawn Dynasty and others. Many will come."

"That makes it even more interesting," Ethan smiled, his blood simmering with anticipation.

Suppressing the rush within him, Ethan invited, "Have a seat while I prepare dinner."

"No, I want to help!" Liana insisted.

"Then catch and clean two snakehead fish from the courtyard pond," Ethan directed.

"Good!" Liana eagerly took a butcher's knife and fished out two sleek black fish.

The courtyard pond was stocked with fine fish carefully chosen on Ethan's fishing trips—his simple pleasures amid the chaos of cultivation.

As evening deepened, the scent of cooking filled the air, inviting and warm.

After a satisfying meal paired with rich wine, Liana's cheeks flushed—not with intoxication, but from contentment.

"Senior Brother Ethan, your cooking is incredible! Anyone lucky enough to marry you will be truly blessed," she teased.

Then, with a sudden seriousness, she asked, "Senior Brother Ethan, do you have plans to find a Taoist companion?"

Ethan chuckled, ruffling her hair affectionately. "You ask too many questions. Eat well, then get some rest."

"Hehe, I'm just curious," Liana replied coquettishly.

"The path ahead is long; my only companion is my scythe," Ethan said thoughtfully.

Liana pouted but nodded in understanding.

Together, they tidied the courtyard. As the sun dipped behind the mountains, its golden afterglow rippled across the peaks like molten waves.

Liana trailed her feet, hands behind her back, peering at the ground.

"Senior Brother Ethan, when will you leave for Noble Sun City?" she asked quietly.

"In a few days. Why, do you want to come with me?" Ethan replied.

"Of course! But the journey is long, and Noble Sun City teems with geniuses. My talent is insufficient; I haven't yet stepped into the Body Integration realm. My strength is low—I might just be a burden."

Her sigh spoke volumes about her hope and self-doubt.

Her father's warnings weighed heavily on her mind: the world outside was merciless, the strong ruled unchecked, and the weak were crushed like ants.

Senior Brother Ethan's incomparable talent and power made her feel painfully inadequate.

To follow him would be to invite trouble—not help.

"Don't rush everything," Ethan advised gently.

"You're young. With earnest effort, you'll soon reach the Body Integration realm and beyond."

"I know," Liana whispered. "It's late. I'll head back first."

"Alright."

She tucked her hands behind her, her white skirt fluttering like a songbird's wings as she wandered down the mountain.

Only when she vanished from sight did her steps slow, her lively gait ebbing like a deflated balloon.

At the mountain's foot, she stopped, casting a longing gaze upward toward the slopes, her delicate brows furrowed with disappointment and silent yearning.
