Jiang Zuo’s original plan was to go to the Immortal Spirit Spring to capture the Yin Yang Fish.

The Yin Yang Fish have the ability to evolve. Although this function was useless to Jiang Zuo, he couldn’t ignore their nature as supreme treasures.

Inside the Immortal Spirit Cave Mansion, the Yin Yang Fish’s abilities weren’t particularly outstanding, so Jiang Zuo hadn’t given them much thought before.

But things were different now. He was raising a duck, so a pond was a must-have.

And with a pond, he might as well raise some fish. For that, the Yin Yang Fish were naturally the most suitable.

While he was at it, he also wanted to pick up an Enlightenment Stone and transplant an Enlightenment Tree.

That would make his dull balcony seem a bit more elegant.

Besides catching the fish, Jiang Zuo also wanted to enter the Immortal Realm’s side of the spring when it erupted. Unfortunately, with so many eyes watching, there would probably be no opportunity.

Especially since...

Jiang Zuo looked up, his gaze seeming to pierce through the wall of light to see the group of people on the highest level.

And among that group was the figure of Su Qi.

With Su Qi above him, being too active could easily lead to a bad end.

After that, Jiang Zuo said no more. It was time to head back.

No one could stop Jiang Zuo when he decided to leave. On the way, Chi Xue Child asked, "Fellow Daoist, do you have any suggestions for fishing?"

Without turning his head, Jiang Zuo replied, "Wear something flashy. The fishing rod doesn’t matter, but the flashier, the better. The bait doesn’t matter either, as long as it’s colorful. Your entire outfit, the bait, and the rod—it’s best if they all match."

Chi Xue Child and the other three were instantly dumbfounded.

"????"

’Is he messing with us?’

’But a person as serious as Po Xiao wouldn’t make that kind of joke. So, did that mean the most important thing wasn’t the rod or the bait, but ’dressing appropriately’?’

Liuyue Xue typed out a few words for Chi Xue Child and the others to see: *Did we ask the wrong way?*

Chi Xue Child thought about it seriously. ’No, my question was fine!’

’So we really have to change our clothes?’

Blade Master Hai Bian didn’t have a problem with it. And since Chi Xue Child had already given up his hair, this was nothing to him.

Mo Yan, who wore black all year round, would find it a little awkward.

As a Dream Nightmare Cultivator, she preferred a minimalist style.

But she was so bull-headed (especially with the lingering side effects of being an idiot), there was nothing she couldn’t overcome.

The one who would suffer the most was Liuyue Xue. She looked beautiful in her daily Immortal Skirts, and light-colored clothes suited her especially well.

Flashy clothes would be a complete mismatch.

It would really clash with her style.

So, she preferred to believe that Po Xiao was just messing with them.

"Fellow Daoist Po Xiao, that fishing rod of yours, is it some kind of powerful treasure?" Blade Master Hai Bian asked curiously.

It wasn’t just him; all four of them were very curious.

Po Xiao had just bestowed a heavenly fortune upon them, which meant this fishing rod was surely worth more than it seemed.

"It’s the Broken Bridge Pole. The Broken Bridge Pole is incomparably sturdy, almost beyond compare with any Magical Treasure. But that is merely its superficial appearance. Legend has it that the Broken Bridge Pole is a bridge that connects various worlds."

"Therefore, it possesses the ability of spatial fishing. As long as you mark your target well, nothing can escape its line," Jiang Zuo said.

Chi Xue Child and the others didn’t quite understand, grasping only a fraction of it. Mo Yan thought for a moment and asked, "If that mark were placed on my Shadowless Dagger, could you fish it out?"

Jiang Zuo nodded. "Yes."

"..." ’That’s basically a cheat, isn’t it?’

Chi Xue Child asked, "Is there any way to prevent it?"

"As long as you can fight back against the one fishing, it’ll be fine. Fishing isn’t an invincible technique," Jiang Zuo said. 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝚠𝚎𝚋𝗻𝗼𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝚘𝐦

"So you’re saying if you’re not careful for a second, your things could just disappear?" asked Blade Master Hai Bian.

’This thing feels a bit overpowered.’

Liuyue Xue, however, typed a message for them: *If you can’t place a mark, can it only be used as a kind of Spatial Treasure? At best for storage and Summoning?*

Mo Yan dutifully read it aloud.

Jiang Zuo nodded. That was indeed the case, but those weren’t all of the Broken Bridge Pole’s abilities.

’But not just anyone can use its abilities, nor can they be activated at just any level of Cultivation.’

Still, with the Broken Bridge Pole, it would be much easier for Jiang Zuo to fish for the Yin Yang Fish.

Initially, he would have had to waste Innate Qi, but now that was no longer necessary.

Afterward, Jiang Zuo parted ways with Chi Xue Child and his group. They were going shopping for flashy clothes and, while they were at it, to keep a closer eye on their own Magical Treasures. They all had a feeling that Po Xiao was constantly leveling up his stealing Skills.

This was not a good thing.

As soon as Jiang Zuo arrived at his new quarters, he immediately flopped down to one side and went to sleep.

He had fought the Fire Element for so long and then stayed up all night practicing Cultivation; he was simply exhausted in both body and mind.

He had made it this far on pure willpower, and he hadn’t even been noticed by anyone along the way.

As for Sweet Potato, Jiang Zuo just tossed it to the side and gave it two apples to keep it happy.

The Holy Land was a place of constant disaster for the duck anyway. It would get used to it eventually.

Jiang Zuo was right. After he fell asleep, Sweet Potato obediently lay on the floor and gnawed on the apples.

Luckily, it was a hardy creature; otherwise, it really would have been turned into roast duck.

But even though it had almost been cooked, at least it was fine now, and it even had something to eat. It just needed to pay a little attention to its surroundings.

The moment it smelled fire, it wouldn’t even have to think—just run first and ask questions later.

Then, Sweet Potato found itself really missing its mistress. As long as the mistress came back, home would surely be completely safe.

Suddenly, the sleeping Jiang Zuo was startled awake. He sensed a certain fluctuation, and for him in his current state, that was not a good thing.

"Such sharp senses." An ethereal voice entered Jiang Zuo’s mind.

The voice was just a voice, with no discernible gender or tone.

And now Jiang Zuo could see that he was no longer in his room, but on a massive stone bridge.

Jiang Zuo said coldly, "The Broken Bridge Spirit? It seems you weren’t sleeping or weakened after all. To think you could pull me in through my Seal."

Jiang Zuo’s ring space had been continuously under an Innate Qi Seal. That Seal had never been removed, yet his opponent had broken it with such ease.

The other party’s Spatial Ability far exceeded his expectations.

"Your Seal is very powerful, but my Talent is equally remarkable. You cannot seal me," the ethereal voice said.

"Then what do you want with me? To possess my body?" Jiang Zuo’s voice was devoid of any emotional fluctuation.

"You know I am incapable of that. Besides..." The ethereal voice paused before continuing, "Besides, could you truly be possessed by anyone? Though you appear to be here, you already have one foot on the threshold leading out. This place cannot hold you."

The ethereal voice was telling the truth. This place couldn’t hold him; if Jiang Zuo wanted to leave, he could do so at any moment.

Then, Jiang Zuo began to walk along the stone bridge. He wanted to get to the top and see what this bridge truly looked like.

Seeing that Jiang Zuo didn’t speak, the Broken Bridge Spirit continued, "I want you to help me."

"What’s in it for me?" Jiang Zuo said as he slowly walked forward.

"Spatial Ability. Spatial Ability is extremely difficult to comprehend. But as long as you help me, after you achieve the nascent Great Dao, I can help you comprehend Spatial Ability."

Jiang Zuo’s reply was just two words: "Not interested."

’Spatial Ability?’

’Spatial Ability is a privilege for a select few, but he was the most supreme existence among that select few. Not even Duan Qiao could compare to him. So why would he need Duan Qiao to teach him?’

By this time, Jiang Zuo had already walked to the highest point of the bridge. What he saw was indeed a broken bridge—the massive stone structure was only half there.
