The fish in the underworld is also a spiritual thing. When Yang Haoran looked over, he had already dived back into the water due to fright.
However, Yang Haoran still saw an afterimage and was immediately shocked.
"There are actually living creatures in Xuanyin Heavy Water? How is this possible?"
Ma Chenghua said from the side: "It's naturally possible, this is the principle of mutual growth and restraint in the world.
If you want to cross the underworld water, you must eat the fish from the underworld.
Back then, Mo Banshan somehow found out that my grandfather had the means to catch fish from the underworld, so he tricked my grandfather into coming here!
That thief Mo Banshan, I have no sworn relationship with him!"
Yang Haoran looked at the pool and couldn't help but feel sad.
It is not an easy task to catch the fish from the underworld.
First of all, people dare not come into contact with Xuanyin Heavy Water. Even ordinary tools will be destroyed instantly after entering Xuanyin Heavy Water.
Not only stones, but also iron tools will instantly disintegrate and shatter after entering the Xuanyin heavy water.
Unless you have a magic weapon in hand, if the Soul-Eating Ruler is still there, the Soul-Eating Ruler is not afraid of Xuanyin Heavy Water.
Unfortunately, the Soul-Eating Ruler has disappeared together with the psychic topaz.
Even if he is not missing, catching fish with the soul-eating ruler may not be that easy.
It seems that the fish in the underworld is very alert. Since being discovered by Ma Chenghua just now, it has stopped showing up.
Ma Chenghua, on the other hand, observed the water surface seriously, seeming thoughtful.
Yang Haoran frowned and asked: "Since your grandfather had the method of catching fish from the underworld, didn't he teach it to you?"
Ma Chenghua turned his head: "There are methods, but they are not easy.
Where there are fish in the underworld, a brown stone fungus will inevitably grow.
We must first find stone fungi as bait, and then find branches of the Naihe tree as fishing lines.
These two things and Huangquan water are companion plants, so they won’t be too far apart.”
Yang Haoran breathed a sigh of relief: "Isn't that easy to handle? Why don't we go find it now?"
Ma Chenghua gave a wry smile, and then gritted his teeth and said: "Easier said than done?
It would have been possible back then, but that damn Mo Banshan directly cut down the Naihe tree after taking away two things!
Now I’m afraid I can’t find it even if I try to look for it!”
Yang Haoran was stunned, but then shook his head.
"That's not necessarily true. It's been more than forty years since they last came to this place. Maybe the thing has grown back.
What's more, even back then, were they sure that there was only one tree?"
Ma Chenghua blinked and realized that he had some preconceptions.
Yang Haoran is right. It has been more than forty years, and new trees may have grown.
"You're right. Let's go look for it nearby now. Maybe we can actually find it."
Yang Haoran didn't know the two things, so he could only ask Ma Chenghua about the characteristics of the two things, and then he searched carefully like a picture.
Stone fungi and Naihe trees are originally companion plants to the Huangquan water. As long as the Huangquan water does not dry up, they will naturally not become extinct.
After a thorough search, Yang Haoran finally found three walnut-sized stone fungi in a very remote stone crevice.
Unlike ordinary fungi, stone fungi are spherical and extremely hard, just like small stones.
If it weren't for Ma Chenghua's detailed description, Yang Haoran wouldn't be able to recognize it even if he discovered it.
At the same time, Ma Chenghua also discovered a seedling of a Naihe tree in another direction. 163 Novel Network
It is said to be a Naihe tree, but it is actually a plant like a vine.
Ma Chenghua used his dagger to cut off a branch without damaging the main root.
The two of them each took their things and returned to the pool again.
Yang Haoran handed the stone bacteria to Ma Chenghua.
"Can you catch that fish with just this thing?"
Ma Chenghua looked solemn: "That's what my grandfather told me.
This stone fungus is also called hell fruit. It is not only useless to other living creatures, but it is also an extremely toxic poison.
But for the fish from the underworld, it is an irresistible delicacy, something that you will risk your life to eat."
While talking, Ma Chenghua had already tied a knot on the branch of the Naihe tree and tied the stone fungus on it as bait.
Then he sat one meter away from the pool, and with a strong shake, the stone fungus was thrown into the pool.
Naturally, Yang Haoran did not dare to get too close. If he was contaminated with Xuanyin Heavy Water, it would not be a joke.
Even if he is already at the fourth level of Qi training, he is completely unable to resist the erosion of Xuanyin heavy water.
At this time, under the pool, deep inside the huge ancient tomb.
The ape is standing in front of a man in black wearing a bronze mask.
We call him the Man in Black just because he still has the body shape and basic characteristics of a human being.
But in fact, this person has no vitality at all, and is completely filled with Xuan Yin energy.
He stood there, as if he didn't exist at all, and naturally blended into the darkness.
The ape seemed to be very afraid of him and handed the psychic topaz into his hand in fear.
Before this, the man in black was breathing rapidly, looking very excited and expecting.
His hands were even trembling, as if he was receiving a very precious treasure.
But the moment the psychic topaz fell on his hand, a black energy rose from the palm of the man in black.
The man in black screamed, as if someone had touched a red-hot iron with his hand.
Instinctively, he threw it out. Even so, the man in black still screamed in pain.
Looking at his palm again, a hole had been burned out.
But unlike ordinary people, there was no blood flowing from his hands.
And it was visible to the naked eye that his newly injured palm was healing rapidly.
In less than two minutes, the palm of the man in black had returned to its original state.
The man in black looked at the psychic topaz thrown to the ground in panic, his whole body trembling.
The ape felt his anger and instinctively took a few steps back.
"Damn it, it's fake, why did you lie to me?"
The man in black kept roaring, and in order to vent his anger, his fists and feet kept falling on the surrounding caves.
The entire cave rumbled, and the man in black's fist landed on the rock, like hitting dough, and a deep pit immediately appeared.
The ape shrank his head and hid further away. Looking at the fear in his eyes, he must have suffered a lot in the past.
"Hide that thing from me and don't let me see it again!"
As the man in black roared, the ape quickly picked up the psychic topaz and jumped away.
As for the soul-eating ruler, it was still held under the arm by the ape.
At this time, there was a sound on the water pool, and Ma Chenghua suddenly stood up and pulled the branches of the Naihe tree upwards.
