At the end of the desert, an old man was fishing.
Seeing this strange scene, Fang Chen and Princess Huang were both surprised.
This was a desert. Within a radius of ten thousand miles, not a single drop of water could be seen. They were very curious. Why was this old man fishing here?
They saw.
The old man was wearing a grey robe and was sitting cross-legged on a piece of green rock. He was holding a one-meter-long bamboo pole in his hand. At the other end of the bamboo pole, there was a silk thread. At the end of the silk thread, there was a fishing hook.
This was a fishing rod.
"When the clouds rise, sit and look at the east."
The old man muttered such words. After that, a smile appeared on his withered face. It was as though he already knew that Fang Chen and Princess Huang had arrived. "It's a pleasure to have friends from afar."
As he spoke, the old man flicked his wrist and the fishing rod was lifted. A golden fish suddenly appeared in the desert. It bit the hook and was pulled back by the old man.
"That is …"
Fang Chen's heart trembled. If he didn't see wrongly, that golden fish was condensed from ultimate force. This kind of fish was definitely not an ordinary fish. It actually took the initiative to bite the hook.
What was the identity of this old man?
The old man held the golden fish and turned his head to look at Fang Chen and Princess Huang. He said, "Since the two of you are here, why don't you have a taste of this old man's fish?"
Swoosh!
The old man flicked his sleeve. Instantly, the golden fish floated in mid-air. He formed seals with both hands. A terrifying force penetrated the golden fish. As time passed, the energy in the golden fish became purer. In the end, the energy of the golden fish was directly compressed into the purest form of energy.
This kind of energy was a great supplement for a martial artist's cultivation.
"This …"
Fang Chen was shocked. To be able to compress the ultimate force into such a pure state with just a raise of his hand and let ordinary people absorb and refine it. One could imagine how strong this old man was.
He felt a headache coming. He had just escaped the pursuit of the mysterious expert's servant. Why did he encounter another monster not long after?
Just what kind of strange place was the core of the Death Cliff?
"Try it?"
The old man threw the Golden Fish out. Fang Chen subconsciously reached out to catch it, but he was shocked to find that the Golden Fish flew past him. No matter how hard he tried, he couldn't touch the Golden Fish.
Weng!
The golden fish accurately landed in Princess Huang's fair palm. A look of astonishment appeared on the latter's beautiful face. However, before she could say anything, the old man said, "Quickly eat it."
Fang Chen also sent a sound transmission to Princess Huang, saying that this Golden Fish would be of great help to her cultivation.
Princess Huang no longer hesitated and swallowed the golden fish in one gulp.
"This way, please."
The old man waved his sleeve, and three stone benches and a stone table appeared in the desert. He took the lead and sat down on the stone bench, making an inviting gesture.
Fang Chen and Princess Huang looked at each other and sat down.
"Thank you, Senior."
Princess Huang expressed her thanks. In just a few seconds, she could feel the strength in her body rising. Moreover, her comprehension of the five elemental origins had also greatly increased.
The most important thing was.
She could clearly sense the trajectory of the ultimate power. For a powerhouse at the peak of the Saint Realm like them, this was more important than any treasure of heaven and earth.
"May I ask Senior's name?" Fang Chen asked.
The old man shook his head and smiled, "This old man's name is not worth mentioning. Just call me Fisherman."
Fang Chen seriously thought about it in his mind, but he couldn't think of such a person as Fisherman. Princess Huang also shook her head gently. She had never heard of such a person.
"Senior Fisherman, are you also an ultimate cultivator?"
The so-called ultimate cultivator, in Fang Chen's understanding, was a cultivator who had comprehended the ultimate path.
The fisherman shook his head, "I have indeed comprehended the ultimate path, but I am not an ultimate cultivator."
Fang Chen was puzzled. The fisherman explained, "Do you know why I didn't give you the Golden Fish I just caught, but gave it to this lady?"
"Is it because I have comprehended the ultimate path?" Fang Chen asked.
The fisherman explained, "You should have seen the essence of the Golden Fish, and the reason I didn't give it to you is that you are not suitable.
You are at the beginning of the ultimate path. If I give you the Golden Fish and let you refine and absorb it, the ultimate power of the Golden Fish will subtly affect your cultivation and comprehension. In this way, it is equivalent to harming you. "
Fang Chen understood. It turned out that the fisherman was afraid that the ultimate power of the Golden Fish would destroy the ecological balance of the ultimate power in his body.
"Senior Fisherman, why are you fishing here?" Fang Chen continued to ask.
This was clearly a desert. He had carefully examined it. Under the soil, there was no aura of the ultimate power at all.
The fisherman put away the fishing rod and said with a smile, "How much do you know about the Saint Realm?"
The two looked at each other. After the Yin-Yang Origin Realm was the Five Elements Saint Realm.
The symbol of stepping into the Saint Realm was to comprehend the Five Elements Origin. The Five Elements were the foundation of heaven and earth. Fang Chen had comprehended all five Elements Origin.
The Saint Realm was divided into nine levels. The first three levels were the Saint King Realm, the middle three levels were the Saint Emperor Realm, and the last three levels were the Saint Realm.
After the Ninth Level Saint was the Invincible Saint, and then the Ultimate Saint.
This was the conventional cultivation system.
"Then, what level do you think I am at?" The fisherman continued to ask.
Fang Chen pondered for a moment before he said, "Although I can't sense Senior Fisherman's aura, the technique you used to compress Ultimate Energy earlier is enough to prove that you've already surpassed the Saint Stage. You're at least a Half-Step Chaotic Supreme Stage expert."
The Half-Step Chaotic Supreme was a small realm between the Saint Realm and the Chaotic Realm.
People in this realm had touched the threshold of the Supreme, and there was a huge gap between them and the Saint Realm.
The fisherman shook his head. "I am an Eleventh Level Saint."
"What?"
Fang Chen and Princess Huang exclaimed at the same time.
There were nine levels in the Saint Realm. How could there be an Eleventh Level Saint?
"Please enlighten me, Senior Fisherman," Fang Chen said.
"In fact, the Invincible Saint and the Ultimate Saint you mentioned are the cultivation system of the Age of Chaos. In the most ancient era, there was the most complete cultivation system, and it was called the Thirteenth Level Saint Realm."
Step by step, only by stepping through the Thirteenth Level Saint Realm could one become a Supreme.
"Thirteenth Level?"
"The core of the Death Cliff is a world of its own. The Jialuo Clan is stationed here to guard the reincarnation cycle. This world retains the power of the Heavenly Path from the ancient era. In the outside world, no matter how talented you are, you can't step into the Tenth Level. But here, the Thirteenth Level is not a fantasy," the fisherman said.
Speaking of the Invincible Saints and the Ultimate Saints of the outside world, a look of disdain appeared on his face.
"In the most ancient era, the so-called Invincible Saints and the Ultimate Saints of the outside world were not even worth mentioning. Sigh, the world has changed, and all of this is because of the Devouring Demon Clan."
The clan leader of the Devouring Demon Clan had forcibly defied the heavens and extracted the fate of the Chaotic Realm to establish the Origin Realm, destroying the balance of the Six Paths of Reincarnation.
