I Secretly Develop Myself In The Demon World

Chapter 747: Chapter 392: Fate Fishing Rod_2

The ancient treasure was brought out, and Su Nan couldn’t help but be dumbfounded.

That’s because the ancient treasure took such a strange shape.

It was actually a bamboo pole!

A gray-white bamboo pole, thick on one end and thin on the other; the thickest part of the pole has a diameter of about three centimeters, while the tip of the pole has a diameter of only a few millimeters, just like a normal bamboo pole.

If a fishing line and hook were added, this would be a decent fishing rod.

Upon closer inspection, there are precisely forty-nine sections to this bamboo pole.

Su Nan was amazed and immediately turned to the game description.

[Fate Fishing Rod: using cause and effect as a line, Qi luck as a hook, lifespan as bait, invoke its name, observe its shadow, listen to its sound, and fish for its fate.]

“So this really is a ‘fishing rod'” Su Nan was astonished. n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

The game’s introductory description of the bamboo pole was brief, but it revealed the purpose of the item.

Without a doubt, this was a treasure related to destiny, similar to the Life and Death Mirror he had acquired earlier.

Just by reading the description, he understood that using this item would require a great price to be paid, Qi luck, and even lifespan!

As for invoking its name, observing its shadow, and listening to its sound, these were probably the methods for using it.

“I have Qi luck, whether it’s the Heaven and Earth Qi luck or the Clan Qi luck I have plenty, as for the lifespan, I’m not too worried.”

With the power of his three roles combined, it was certain that his lifespan would be longer than the average king level.

But that wasn’t the most important part; he had cultivated the Life Wheel Scripture and the Great Sun Golden Body Scripture.

The lifespan increase brought by the ancient scriptures was much more than that gained from merging bloodlines. Although the lifespan of ancient experts was said to be somewhat inferior to those of the demon clan at the same level, living for a thousand years was not out of the question.

From the changes his body underwent after consuming the water from the river of time, one could discern this.

After consuming the river water, his body technically aged by twenty years, but there were no noticeable changes to his outward appearance.

Besides, he possessed treasures that could replenish his lifespan.

After the conclusion of the Twelve Zodiacs event, he had not yet consumed the longevity fruit that could randomly increase his lifespan by ten or twenty years.

However, what puzzled him was that using the ancient treasure also required cause and effect.

“By using cause and effect as a line, does that mean that I need to first establish a causal connection with the opponent before using it?”

“If I can establish a cause and effect relationship with that Heavenly Clan Expert, what do I need this thing for?”

“It seems that the game’s reward is not what I want. Could it be that my prayer has affected the distribution of rewards, but has not fully granted my wishes?”

Su Nan’s heart, which had settled down because of the new reward, was raised once again.

Looking at the game’s introduction about the fate fishing rod, he couldn’t help but come up with a bad idea.

If this was indeed the case, then his wish was undoubtedly a failure!

“Maybe I’m wrong, and this thing can be used without needing cause and effect.”

No matter what, the incense and wishes he had made had been consumed, and the rewards had been received. It had become a done deal; now he had to try it out first.

He looked back at the premonition, planning to find a person with no causal connection to him in the game and test it.

He used a normal premonition as a one-time consumption.

[You have obtained an ancient treasure, capable of fishing for fate. You plan to try using the ancient treasure to hunt demons.]

[Arriving at Picking Stars Peak, one minute later, you see a Xuan-level demon appearing a hundred meters away. You try to grip the end of the fate fishing rod, lifting it like a normal fishing rod.]

[With the lifting of the fate fishing rod, suddenly you see an invisible line appear at the end of the pole, and at the end of the line is a huge hook.]

[With your swing, the hook goes straight towards the demon a hundred meters away. In an instant, it arrives nearby and hooks onto it.]

[At this moment, you understand that you can easily fish for the demon’s fate, and at the same time, you find that the demon, who originally had no causal connection with you, now has a cause and effect relationship with you.]

[You lift the rod again, trying to fish, and in the next moment, the demon collapses to the ground lifelessly. Somehow your demon clan’s luck is reduced by 100 points, and your lifespan is reduced by one year.]

“It doesn’t really need cause and effect!”

“No, it’s not that it doesn’t require a karmic connection. It’s that when I saw that demonic creature, there was already a connection,”

“As long as you call out the target’s name, see their figure, or hear their voice, a karmic connection is established. However, this kind of connection can only be completely constructed with the help of the Fate Fishing Rod.”

Upon seeing this, Su Nan finally breathed a sigh of relief, and his last concerns disappeared.

Although he didn’t know the name of that Heavenly Clan expert, being able to see them should be enough.

And this was just a side effect of the Fate Fishing Rod.

“To deal with a Xuan-level opponent, I only consumed 100 points of Qi Luck and one year of my lifespan. I just don’t know what price I would have to pay if I used the Fate Fishing Rod to directly target a Saint-level opponent.”

After pondering for a moment, a target appeared in his mind.

Demon Monarch!

The Demon Monarch was a Saint-level, of the same realm as that Heavenly Clan member, and there was no karmic connection between them, so it was perfect.

He couldn’t try by just looking at the target this time, so he planned to attempt using the Fate Fishing Rod by calling their name.

“I don’t know the Demon Monarch’s real name, and I’m not sure if this title counts as a karmic connection.”

A name itself is a code, a code pointing to a specific target.

Obviously, the title “Demon Monarch” also possessed this characteristic.

[You obtain an Ancient Treasure. This Ancient Treasure can fish for fate. You plan to try using this treasure against the Demon Clan’s Demon Monarch.]

[You call out the name of the Demon Monarch, and then throw the fishing rod in your hand. In the next moment, you are startled to see that an invisible hook on the Fate Fishing Rod is pulled by an invisible thread, sinking into the void and stretching towards an unknown location.]

[Then you find that an unusually thick thread of fate has appeared on your body. You understand that this is the thread of fate between you and the Demon Monarch.]

[You attempt to fish for the Demon Monarch’s fate. Instantly, your Qi Luck and lifespan begin to deplete rapidly.]

[You died]

His foresight ended in death.

Su Nan wasn’t disappointed. Instead, his eyes revealed joy. If he could kill a Saint-level Demon Monarch that easily, it would actually be abnormal.

What delighted him was that this attempt had verified his thoughts – just calling their name, seeing their figure, or hearing their voice would establish a karmic connection.

“Now that I have this thing, I can finally try to deal with that Heavenly Clan member!”

Putting away the treasure in the sleeve of the universe, he quickly exited the game.

The scorching sun was blinding.

In reality, it was already noon, and there were only six hours left until the fourth public test.

As soon as he crawled out of the game cabin, Su Nan began to use his foresight.

Unexpectedly, he spent ninety foresights this time, leaving only a single digit left.

“90 times! Three days later!”

“It seems that I’ve finally escaped a disaster this time!”

[You know that six hours later, your world will briefly connect with another world. At that time, spatial channels will open. You are not afraid and are prepared to take action.]

[Four hours later, the divine soul seed you planted in the Sky Monster Bone Umbrella Divine Soul finally grows completely. You take out 80,000 drops of Mortal Grade Essence Blood and 8,000 drops of Spirit Grade Essence Blood to replenish the power of the Bone Umbrella.]

[Six hours later, the spatial channel opens. Countless demonic creatures descend, including Emperor-level creatures. You fight several Emperor-level demonic creatures with the help of the Supreme Divine Soil and ultimately achieve victory.]

[You don’t relax. You know that the crisis is not over and that even more powerful beings will soon take action.]

[As you expected, a Heavenly Clan expert appears and takes a shot at you. You decisively use the Fate Fishing Rod to try to establish a karmic connection with the Heavenly Clan expert.]

[You successfully establish a connection with your opponent using the Fate Fishing Rod.]

[You know that your Qi Luck and lifespan are not enough to forcibly fish for their fate. You decide to use the connection between you and your opponent to cast the Fate Tribulation Technique.]

[A thousand points of Human Clan’s Luck are consumed, and the tribulation for the Heavenly Clan expert arrives early. You see a Nameless Fire engulfing the expert’s figure, while Blinding Thunder strikes them.]

[As they are burnt by the flames and struck by the thunder, the Heavenly Clan expert seems to have witnessed something terrifying, their expression horrified.]
