The Divine Nine-Dragon Cauldron

Chapter 3033 2,922 Unexpectedly Fell Out

The next morning.

Today was the last day of the month when the soul sacred clan's ancestral technique was comprehended.

The seventh ancestor had come to the ancient well early. Not only that, he had also erected an ancient mirror on the stone bench beside him.

Faint probing fluctuations seeped out from the mirror.

It turned out that the seventh ancestor had reported to the other patriarchs that Linghu Yun of the younger generation had a chance of catching a fish. When he comprehended the rank three ancestral technique, the patriarchs were quite concerned.

The first patriarch had even personally handed a mirror to the seventh patriarch and placed it on the spot.

Through the mirror, they could see every move in the ancient well from the secret chamber where they were in seclusion.

And today, all of the younger generation had rushed here in high spirits.

Today was their last chance, so they had to cherish it.

"Third brother, it seems that in the past few years, you're the only one who can catch a fish,"a clan sister said in admiration.

"Yeah, third brother has really changed."

Everyone had high expectations for Linghu Yun. After all, his performance yesterday showed signs of success.

Linghu Jie was ignored. He was eating at the side and said, "What's so great about it? Nothing can be said until the last moment."

As time went by, only Su Yu had yet to come.

"Let's begin."Seeing that the time was almost up, the seventh ancestor couldn't wait to open the ancient well.

Linghu Yun reminded, "Seventh ancestor, Big Brother hasn't arrived yet. Let's Wait a little longer. The time isn't up yet anyway."

The seventh ancestor shook his head. "Don't worry about him. Today, you will be the Master!"

He whispered in his ear, "To comprehend the ancestral technique, you need to focus your attention. Don't have any distracting thoughts in your heart. Otherwise, you will fail! Now, don't worry about anything. Don't think about anything, understand?"

Linghu Yun nodded deeply. "Thank you for your teachings, seventh ancestor. This junior understands."

The group of juniors quickly surrounded the ancient well and fought against time to put in the fishing line and hook formed by their souls.

However, it was difficult for their hearts to calm down. They were all paying attention to Linghu Yun from time to time.

What made them jealous was that after Linghu Yu's fishing line and Hook entered the well water, the fish from yesterday actually immediately came to his fishing hook and hovered in front of it.

The eyes of the seven ancestors, who had noticed this scene, lit up. They held their breath and watched the situation develop silently.

The other juniors had also completely forgotten that they had come to fish as well. Their gazes were all attracted by Linghu Yun's transformation.

Linghu Jie's heart was also in his throat as he nervously stared at the fish.

Whether Linghu Yun could really replace him in the end and become the most outstanding person of his generation would depend on this fish in front of him.

He silently prayed in his heart that he must not succeed, no!

However, things did not turn out as he wished.

The fish circled around Linghu Yun's hook for a long time before it finally made up its mind. It quickly ran over and bit the hook.

Seventh ancestor's pupils constricted as he thought to himself, "Quickly pull the fishing line!"

The hearts of the others also sank.

He was really going to succeed!

Linghu Yun was extremely excited as well. He pulled forcefully with his soul line.

Under normal circumstances, he would definitely be able to catch that fish. There were very few exceptions.

However, today, an unexpected scene really happened!

After the fish bit the hook, it seemed to suddenly feel that the hook wasn't what he wanted. When Linghu Yun pulled the line, it spat out again.

Linghu Yun used too much strength and pulled empty air with one hand. He, who was sitting by the well, staggered and fell to the ground.

The fishing line and the hook formed by his soul fiercely smashed onto his body. The situation was as miserable as it could be.

The seventh ancestor and even the patriarchs behind the mirror all sighed in disappointment.

"Linghu Yun, your heart is not clean. The ancestral art repels you,"said the seventh ancestor regretfully and disappointedly.

He had placed too much hope in Linghu Yun, but he was too disappointing.

The many juniors who had heaved a sigh of relief were gloating over his misfortune.

Linghu Jie could not help but laugh out loud. "Oh, I thought you were going to completely turn things around. I didn't expect it! I told you not to be happy too early!"

"Sigh! Third brother has indeed been too smooth-sailing these past few years. I thought it was because he worked hard enough, but now it seems that luck is more important."

"A crow is like a phoenix that flies to the top of a tree. It's not realistic after all."

They spoke one after another, all with a look of elation.

Seeing this, the seventh ancestor was even more upset. "Shut up! You Don't want to learn the ancestral technique, right?"

When he looked at Linghu Yun, his tone also changed a lot. He said, "Linghu Yun, you don't have to continue. Just watch from the side."

Usually, people who had been rejected by fish would only affect the performance of others if they continued to fish.

Linghu Yun got up from the ground, wiped the water off his face, and said in a flustered manner, "Yes."

He stood alone by the ancient well and looked at the fish swimming inside, but he could only remain indifferent. His feelings were extremely complicated.

After a cup of tea.

Su Yu, who had come on foot, was surprised to find that the ancient well had started ahead of schedule.

"It has started?"He was a little surprised that such a big event could be brought forward so easily.

The Soul Saint clan was probably expecting too much from Linghu Yun.

The seventh ancestor's face was as calm as water. He glanced at Su Yu and then looked away. "Hurry up and go over. Hurry up."

Su Yu was not in a hurry.

In the past two days, he had already learned the more important soul secret arts in the well water. Today was the official day of fishing and learning the soul ancestor technique.

He swept his gaze over and found that Linghu Yun was actually looking at him from the side. He asked curiously, "Third brother, why aren't you going?"

Linghu Yun gave a helpless and bitter smile. "Big Brother, there's something you don't know..."

After listening to his explanation, Su Yu suddenly understood. He patted his shoulder and said, "Keep up the good work in the future."

"Thank you, Big Brother."

Linghu Jie turned his head and looked at Su Yu. He sneered and said, "Big Brother, why don't you hurry up? How much longer are you going to Dawdle?"

Su Yu did not say a word and came to the side of the ancient well.

Looking at the nine fish that were indifferent and swimming on their own, Su Yu separated a part of his soul and turned it into a fishing line and hook. For the first time, he officially threw it into the water.

Because he was not careful enough, the hook smashed into the water, causing a splash.

Linghu jie teased, "Big Brother, aren't you being a little too impatient? Don't tell me that if one of you throws a hook down, one of the fish will immediately take the bait?"

Not long after he said that, Linghu Jie suddenly couldn't laugh.

That was because, after the hook was thrown down, while it was still sinking, there was actually a nearby fish swimming over at an astonishing speed. Then, it took the hook in its mouth.

Linghu Jie wasn't the only one who was stunned by this scene. The other juniors all had their eyes wide open and their expressions petrified.

As for the distraught seventh ancestor, he didn't pay attention to the situation in the ancient well. He only noticed that their expressions were strange, so he said unhappily, "What are you all doing? You Don't want to comprehend anymore, right?"

As he said this, he cast a probing gaze into the ancient well.

However, when he saw this, his entire body trembled, and then he was petrified on the spot.

Only a pair of eyes remained, following the fishing line formed by Su Yu's soul, and pulled the fish up at a moderate speed.

The strangest thing was that the fish actually did not resist at all. It was like a dead fish, willing to be pulled up..
