Great Wilderness.
By the You River.
An old man in a straw raincoat is sitting at the bow of a boat, fishing.
But if you look closely, you'll find the way he fishes is quite peculiar.
He uses a straight hook, without any bait, not sinking it into the water, and it hovers three feet above the water surface.
Under normal circumstances, with this fishing method.
Even after a hundred years, he might not catch even a small fish.
But at the next moment.
The straight hook suspended above the water suddenly plunged into the water, as if a big fish had taken the bait.
The fishing rod shook violently, transmitting an irresistible immense force.
The force was so great that the wooden boat kept shaking.
Caught off guard, the old man's body leaned forward, nearly being dragged directly into the water.
At this time.
The Purple Bamboo Fishing Rod in his hand suddenly revived, bursting into a brilliant divine light.
Mysterious patterns emerged on every section of the rod.
