Chapter 370: Chapter 304 Purple Entry [The Last Drop of Blood]_2

The attractability of the bait for ocean (lake) life +100%.

"This entry is pretty good!"

Noticing the newly refreshed entry, Chen Mo smiled.

The effect of the "Fisher" entry allows him to never fish empty-handed; within 10 minutes, a fish is guaranteed to bite.

Hence, what Chen Mo needs most now is a means to attract high-level Spirit Fish, and the "Bait Making Expert" perfectly satisfies his requirement.

As a high-level Spirit Chef, crafting rare-grade bait wasn’t difficult for Chen Mo. In just a day, he completed the entry challenge.

In the following days, he continuously improved the bait, studying formulas more suitable for the physical constitution of the Fish King babies in Flame Lake.

In this fishing competition, Chen Mo’s target was the Fish King.

After all, a Monarch Stage Fish King corresponds to 10,000-100,000 points according to rarity and growth level.

That’s 100 times that of a Commander-level Spirit Fish and 1000 times that of an Extraordinary Level!

Time flew by.

Before long, the day of the fishing competition arrived.

Early in the morning, the igneous rock plaza in front of Flame Lake was packed with people.

As for Flame Lake, it had been cordoned off two days prior.

After a lively and festive "opening ceremony," a graceful and elegant green lotus slowly surfaced in Flame Lake.

The green lotus, about 2 meters long, resembled the pedestal of a Bodhisattva. On it sat a man dressed in white.

Surrounding the man in white was a faint halo, obscuring his features.

All that could be seen was his left hand holding a jade-like azure fishing rod.

Holy Flame Green Lotus, a powerful totemic presence.

Upon its appearance, members of the Green Lotus Tribe and Spiritual Beasts knelt with excitement in their eyes.

The Green Lotus Tribe’s population was less than a tenth of the Red Dragon Tribe, with most being Fire Element Plant Spirit Masters.

Members of the Red Dragon Tribe, too, slightly bowed their heads in respect.

"This fishing competition will be hosted by me."

Holy Flame Green Lotus spoke slowly.

Its voice was warm and gentle, giving one the feeling of a spring breeze.

"The competition is about to begin, please enter!"

The language spoken by Holy Flame Green Lotus was an ancient tribal tongue, which Chen Mo, possessing a beast language talent, automatically translated into Chinese in his mind.

Upon hearing this, the fishermen entered with their gear.

Chen Mo silently moved to a corner of the deep fishing zone and slowly sat down.

The fishing competition’s arena was divided into a shallow fishing zone and a deep fishing zone, akin to shallow and deep water areas.

The shallow zone housed more Spirit Fish, but their levels and rarity were significantly lower. Meanwhile, the deep zone had fewer Spirit Fish but with higher growth levels.

Simultaneously, various flying-capable Spirit Beasts hovered over Flame Lake, including the Fiery Flame Mystic Eagle, Four-winged Flying Fish, and Flame Sparrow...

Most were Fire Element Spirit Beasts, while others with different attributes were mostly from other totemic areas.

These hovering Spirit Beasts were often massive, with many even having built pavilions on their backs.

Those were for the tribe members who came to watch the competition.

Apart from the competitors, there were also many spectators for this event.

On the Fiery Flame Mystic Eagle, with a wingspan of several meters, a brother and sister were carefully observing the competitors of this fishing competition.

Judging by their attire, they were from the royal family of the Red Dragon Tribe.

"Brother, do you think the fishing champion this time will be from the Red Dragon Tribe or the Green Lotus Tribe?"

Asked the little girl in a red dress.

"Our tribe probably has a higher chance; the last fishing champion, the mayor of Red Scale Village, is competing."

"But it’s hard to say; the Green Lotus Tribe also has very skilled anglers. Plus, catching fish involves a good deal of luck."

"Wow! Brother, look, there’s an outsider in the deep fishing zone!"

The little girl exclaimed excitedly, pointing in a direction.

"I didn’t expect an outsider to join the competition; they might just be here to experience the fishing competition’s culture!"

"That little fox is so cute!"

...

Besides this brother-sister duo, many others noticed Chen Mo.

Apart from his distinct attire, the various never-before-seen Spirit Beasts he brought with him also drew attention.

At this moment, Xiao Jiu and other beasts surrounded him, ready to strike.

Chen Meng sat atop the Light Unicorn, her gaze fixed on Chen Mo’s position.

Everyone else seemed to disappear in her eyes.

"Guangyu, do you think Chen Mo can win first place?"

"Eeh~" (Mengmeng, don’t worry. In these past few days, hasn’t he already caught many Spirit Fish in Flame Lake? He even caught a Fish King once!)

The Light Unicorn had full confidence in Chen Mo.

These days, it stuck by Chen Mo’s side, savoring all sorts of Spirit Fish.

The key was that they hadn’t neglected training; even taking it easy, the aura around Chen Mo allowed it to progress as much as a month’s worth of training!

"Gather fish!"

In the center of Flame Lake, Holy Flame Green Lotus calmly spoke, then waved its sleeve, sending countless fragrant azure lotus petals into Flame Lake.

These lotus petals had incredible heat resistance, unfazed even by magma, piercing through with immense power, reaching depths of thousands of meters.

Legend has it that Flame Lake leads straight to the Earth’s heart and is home to countless fire-attribute Spirit Fish.

The next second, Flame Lake seemed to boil over.

The lake’s surface bubbled with thick steam, and Fire Element Spirit Fish continuously leaped out of the water.

That’s just the surface.

Deep inside the Flame Lake.

Large fish and Fish Kings, previously slumbering in caves or magma depths, smelled the aroma and swam out.

"Ooo~"

The Wish-making White Fox pondered; this must be the "nesting" technique of the Totemic presence.

With this move, Spirit Fish are drawn out, making it easier for contestants to catch them.

"Let the competition begin!"

As soon as Holy Flame Green Lotus finished speaking, countless fishermen cast their lines, creating a grand spectacle.

"Deeper."

Chen Mo murmured.

The surface of the fishing rod "Red Carp" lit up with a faint glow, and the baited hook sank swiftly into the depths of Flame Lake as if it weighed a thousand pounds.

Though Chen Mo hadn’t formed a pact with the fishing rod "Red Carp," he could still communicate with it on a basic level.

As the hook rapidly descended, the bait it carried released an astonishing "aroma," attracting surrounding Spirit Fish, all eager to snatch a bite.

However, the speed of these Awakening Level or Transcendent Level Spirit Fish was too slow, unable to keep up with the hook’s descent.

Quickly, the hook reached depths of over 2000 meters in the magma, nearing the limit of the spiritual fishing rod Red Carp.

In less than a second, the aroma from Tuantuan’s specially crafted bait attracted many Spirit Fish around.

"Roar!"

At this moment, a ferocious sound echoed, causing the surrounding magma to churn, and the Spirit Fish that intended to approach scattered in panic.

A Fire Perch King, about 7 or 8 meters long with red-brown scales, swam out from the magma depths.

This was a Fish King.

It slowly approached the hook and bait, disdainful in its eyes.

Monarch Level Spirit Fish had developed considerable spiritual intelligence, knowing that the bait on hooks was both a "delicacy" and a "trap."

But with great skill comes great daring; they believed they could eat the bait and escape unharmed with their power.

Even if caught, the worst would be having to fight.

Moreover, the Fire Perch King noticed that the fishing line of this rod wasn’t particularly sturdy; a few Flame Slashes should be enough to sever it!

The "delicacy" on this hook was worth the risk!

Thus—it bit down without hesitation.

The next second, the delicious bait sent shivers down its spine, making it uncontrollably excited!

Delicious! An exquisite delicacy!

"It’s on the hook! And it’s a big one!"

The moment the Fire Perch King was hooked, the rod "Red Carp" dipped slightly, responding immediately.
