The King of Black Fog

On the way back to the waterfall and pond, Li Qianxia told everyone about the fishing and the Heavenly Will Ranking.

"A-level skill, huh." Everyone was stunned.

Don't look at Li Changzhou having a few S-, S skills, and even an S, but what kind of person is Li Changzhou? He doesn't need heavenly will, yet he ranks second on the Heavenly Will Ranking among players.

Fen Mao Lin Jiao, there are only four or five at most.

Useless Old Dao is an Immortal, a top-tier player who got an S-level skill and went crazy thinking Li Changzhou would definitely plot against him.

For most players, A-level skill is already the main skill.

"You don't need to worry about this, let my brother handle it." Li Qianxia assured them.

Using an A-level skill as bait is like cutting flesh from one's own body for others, but for Li Changzhou, it's just a worm that costs a dollar from a fishing tackle shop.

"Fairy Priestess, can you check the Heavenly Will Ranking?" the Flowers Fairy said to Yueji.

Everyone was curious.

The Witch nodded, thinking of the 'Heavenly Will Ranking' in her mind.

It's like an old poem memorized long ago, instantly recalled when carefully thought of, and hence a list unfolded in her memory.

A swarm of fireflies, mere points of light, flew out from the Witch's sleeves and formed a list in the air.

The top five, as the black and white carp described, are respectively Corpse Bone Gene, King of Black Fog (main), True Dragon, Princess, Always Invincible.

"The fifth person is so arrogant!" Little Martial Saint spiritedly exclaimed.

Indra also licked his lips.

"Dead people should not speak." Phoenix said indifferently.

"..." Little Martial Saint obediently stayed silent; he thought Phoenix liked him.

Why else would she let him run before he died?

Telling him not to speak, merely teasing him, absolutely.

Phoenix is good in every way, equally matched in power with him, beautiful, with a fiery figure, but regrettably a spicier temper.

If her temper was just a bit better, he'd be completely on board!

Now he's quite hesitant, whether to be with Phoenix, or to imitate other Immortals, Earth Immortals, and go the retro route—three wives, four concubines, even seventy-two consorts.

Indra has over two hundred wives!

He, Little Martial Saint, can certainly do it!

With such powerful strength, sticking to monogamy, is power such an inconvenient thing?

But Phoenix has deep affection and devotion towards him, they are close comrades through life and death challenges...

The Witch glanced at the Little Martial Saint, with an indescribable expression; Phoenix told him not to speak, because she genuinely found him unlucky.

Phoenix breeds only in parasol trees, eats only bamboo fruits, drinks only Turquoise Pool waters, practicing "Phoenix Visualization", early adopted cleanliness, Little Martial Saint was dirty... not to mention he had died once before.

"The list has only three thousand names." Bi curiously browsed from top to bottom.

Everyone's attention was on the list, except the Witch, no one noticed Little Martial Saint's dilemma.

"Heavenly Empress ranked ninth! How amazing!"

"Turquoise Pool Empress didn't merge with heavenly will, yet ranked forty-second!"

"I'm only ranked one hundred and fifty-five, ah, I dropped another place!" the Witch exclaimed softly.

Yang Qinglan making it into the top ten was expected by everyone, but Turquoise Pool without merging heavenly will could rank in the top fifty, exceeding everyone's imagination.

By the Heavenly Will Ranking, isn't the Witch not a match for Turquoise Pool?

Before Li Changzhou obtained the "Useless Prayer Beads", Turquoise Pool's rank wasn't high, nor was Li Changzhou's; facing heavenly will, they could only use "Teleportation" to escape.

With "Useless Prayer Beads", even heavenly positions would be restricted, paired with useless sword qi, reasoning should have them invincible below Saint, yet only ranked forty-second.

"Corpse Bone Gene might also have similar 'Superpower Prohibition', skills or items like 'Useless Prayer Beads'." Turquoise Pool speculated.

"Brother, you must be careful." Li Qianxia worried inwardly.

It's likely the black and white carp have already told Corpse Bone Gene how to deal with [As You Wish].

Returning to the waterfall and pond, Li Changzhou set up the formation again, beginning to fish in the pond's center.

Mana turned into a simple fishing rod, divine sense spread along the rod, becoming a line and hook.

The Primordial Divine Tree appeared behind him, a Dao Flower fell, "Dark Feast", a skill of the Vampires' ancestral king.

The Dao Flower hung on the hook, gently thrown into the water.

The fishing line, as a silver needle entering the water, didn't budge.

Li Changzhou sat cross-legged in the void, the glowing Primordial Divine Tree standing behind him, three solar Giant Pythons serving as constant stars in the sky, cast a dazzling light, absorbed by the divine tree.

Thin strands of golden mist swirled around the treetop, all of which were constant star essence.

Half a day later, Bi couldn't help but ask: "How long will this fishing take?"

"Until we catch something, of course." Li Qianxia shrugged.

At this moment, Li Changzhou's arm sank, and he lifted it up.

The group, who were each cultivating, instantly focused their attention.

The hook was empty, the Dao Flower gone.

"Did... it come off?" The Fairy, with the qilin body, uncertainly wondered.

"An A-level skill just vanished like that!" The Knight's heart ached, itching.

Li Changzhou's face remained unchanged, another Dao Flower fell, hung on the hook, continuing to fish.

The sky was clear, the sunlight exceptionally bright.

The pond was as expansive as the sea, at the moment windless, like a mirror of water, blending the sea and sky, sitting at the pond's center, as if at the world's end.

Yang Qinglan also took a seat beside him, using cloud qi as bait, starting to fish for seawater.

"Heavenly Will can be fished... with my will, fishing the Dao." She muttered, seemingly realizing.

The warmth of the three suns was enough to sunbathe their shoulders comfortably.

Then, two days passed, over a hundred Dao Flowers were lost!

Not just others, even Li Changzhou's own face turned sour.
