Primordial Star Scripture - Chapter 1008 - 958: Bone Fire Spirit Fish, Ice Flame Cave

After a moment of shock, the two Nine-Star Sovereigns turned their focus to the task in the Ninth Region.

After all, no matter how shocked they are, they must first complete the task in the Ninth Region.

If they can’t even complete the task, it’s too unrealistic to talk about the “unsurpassed divine fire” in the ancient temple afterward.

The region where Ye Chen is located.

Ye Chen also devoted himself to studying the task of the Ninth Region.

Elder Tianhuo, Elder Xueya, Ye Chen, two Nine-Star Sovereigns, one person below the Sovereign Realm, all three began to study the task in different places.

According to the rules of the Ninth Region, they must find the “golden nine-mystic silk,” and the exotic beast they face is a beast called the “bone-fire spirit fish.”

However, unlike facing exotic beasts head-on in previous regions, the exotic beast “bone-fire spirit fish” in this Ninth Region will not appear directly but must be fished using a rod on a light boat.

Once the “bone-fire spirit fish” is caught, it will attack the angler, and only by defeating the “bone-fire spirit fish” with absolute power can one obtain a special flame.

And this special flame born from the “bone-fire spirit fish” has great utility!

Every special flame of the “bone-fire spirit fish” corresponds to a mystical cave hidden beneath the lake in this Ninth Region, known as the “ice-flame cave.”

There are countless “bone-fire spirit fish” in the lake.

Under the lake, there are also countless “ice-flame caves.”

Only by relying on the special flame from the “bone-fire spirit fish” can one enter the corresponding “ice-flame cave.”

And the “golden nine-mystic silk” is hidden in some of the “ice-flame caves.”

What grade of “golden nine-mystic silk” can be obtained, and how many “ice-flame caves” can be entered, depends on the number of “bone-fire spirit fish” caught and killed.

Want to jump into the lake directly to find the “ice-flame cave”?

That is absolutely impossible!

According to the rules, without the protection of the special flame from the “bone-fire spirit fish,” even a Divine Master jumping into the lake will surely die!

This explanation startled Elder Tianhuo, Elder Xueya, and Ye Chen!

Through previous adventures, Elder Tianhuo and Elder Xueya had already noticed the extraordinariness of the “ancient forbidden grounds,” and Ye Chen had long been guessing the strength of the creator of this world. Now, seeing the rules stating that even a Divine Master jumping into the lake without the protection of the “bone-fire spirit fish” flame would surely die, the three gasped again.

This clearly indicates that the creator of these nine regions of the “ancient forbidden grounds” is far superior to a Divine Master!

Otherwise, it would be impossible for a region to be set up that could kill a Divine Master!

Of course, this makes the three even more expectant of the “unsurpassed divine fire” hidden in the ancient temple.

On the light boat where Ye Chen resides.

After pondering the task’s rules, his eyes fell on the fishing rod placed on the boat.

This fishing rod looks ordinary, with a crystal-clear fishing line hanging from it, attached to a hook.

With such a set, the exotic beast “bone-fire spirit fish” in the Ninth Region is to be fished.

Furthermore, there’s not even bait on the light boat!

After a careful study for half a day, Ye Chen’s gaze became solemn: “This ‘ancient forbidden grounds’ is too mysterious. I really don’t know what underlying meaning these variety of rules have.”

“However, since the rules state that this rod can catch ‘bone-fire spirit fish,’ then this rod must have some divine skills above it.”

“As for what kind of ‘bone-fire spirit fish’ can be caught and what kind of ‘ice-flame cave’ can be entered, it probably depends on fortune and combat power.”

“With just over three days left, it is imperative to catch ‘bone-fire spirit fish.’ The more ‘bone-fire spirit fish’ caught, the more ‘ice-flame caves’ can be entered, and the higher the probability of obtaining ‘golden nine-mystic silk.’

Thinking of this, Ye Chen’s mind moved, and he picked up the fishing rod.

Whizz.

He gently swung the rod, and the line with the hook flew into the lake, leaving only a tiny float quietly suspended on the water’s surface.

Ye Chen had long discovered that coming to the Ninth Region, divine sense was completely unaffected above the lake, but trying to probe below with divine sense was entirely impossible.

This left Ye Chen only able to rely on the float and his senses to use the rod to fish for “bone-fire spirit fish.”

While Ye Chen was in action, in the region where the Sovereign resides, Elder Xueya and Elder Tianhuo also began their actions.

All three had started competing for “bone-fire spirit fish” and “golden nine-mystic silk”!

This competition will officially end after the twenty-seventh day of their entry into the “ancient forbidden grounds.”

On Ye Chen’s side.

Ye Chen stood on the light boat, holding the fishing rod with his arm completely still, and even his mind and spirit were entirely calm.

Even though he knew it was a race against time, Ye Chen understood that he couldn’t rush at this moment; otherwise, he would alert the “bone-fire spirit fish” and waste half a day without catching one, which would waste more time.

***

Ye Chen was unaware that beneath the lake he couldn’t see, the hook lacking even bait was emitting a strange, misty golden light.

This golden light directly attracted many “Bone Fire Spirit Fish” swimming beneath the lake.

However, these “Bone Fire Spirit Fish” swam around the hook for a long time without biting. It wasn’t until Ye Chen waited for about an hour that finally, a “Bone Fire Spirit Fish,” several meters long, suddenly lunged at the hook.

The next moment, Ye Chen on the small boat saw the float move greatly.

An immense force suddenly pulled towards his hand.

This force was even stronger than the combat power Blood Flying Yan used when they fought!

Yet, the seemingly ordinary translucent fishing line showed no sign of breaking under this massive pulling force.

All the strength was transmitted to Ye Chen’s arm.

If it were anyone else, being pulled by the “Bone Fire Spirit Fish” from beneath the lake might have directly pulled them into the lake.

One must know, without the flames protecting one after a “Bone Fire Spirit Fish” dies, falling into the lake would undoubtedly mean death!

However, at this moment, Ye Chen on the small boat felt the force coming, and instead of panicking, his expression brightened.

Thıѕ 𝘤hӑpṯ𝗲r 𝚤𝐬 pՕṡ𝖙ɛ𝗱 b𝙮 𝘬𝖎†ᥱ𝙣𝙤𝐯ᥱ𝗅

Ye Chen knew a “Bone Fire Spirit Fish” had taken the bait!

This massive pulling force might be unstoppable for others, but for Ye Chen, it posed no problem.

Ye Chen had prepared everything long ago. At the moment the massive force reached his arm, the purple-gold Stellar origin power within him was infused into his body.

With a surge of Divine Power from Ye Chen, not only did the small boat not sway even a little under the immense force, but Ye Chen even directly dragged the “Bone Fire Spirit Fish” below upward to the lake’s surface using the fishing line.

This fishing method is a contest of strength between the angler and the “Bone Fire Spirit Fish,” forgoing the various skills of normal fishing.

It would be much more dangerous for someone with insufficient combat power.

But for Ye Chen, it was much easier.

Not worried about the fishing line breaking, with combat power far exceeding the strength of the “Bone Fire Spirit Fish” below, Ye Chen gave a shake of his arm and pulled the several-meter-long “Bone Fire Spirit Fish” up from beneath the lake.

Wow.

With a great flip of its body, the “Bone Fire Spirit Fish” was immediately dragged out of the lake.

Then, with a sudden grab of his large hand, Ye Chen directly confined the “Bone Fire Spirit Fish” in the void.

The “Bone Fire Spirit Fish” even prepared to spew flames to attack Ye Chen, but both the flames and the fish were confined by the purple-gold Stellar power!

Ye Chen finally saw the appearance of this Exotic Beast in the Ninth Region.

The “Bone Fire Spirit Fish” looked as though its entire body consisted only of bones, yet eerily, the bones were not covered in fish flesh but rather wrapped in clusters of golden flames.

The golden flames flickered, becoming occasionally transparent, allowing one to clearly see the internal bones of the “Bone Fire Spirit Fish.”

What struck Ye Chen as peculiar was that mysterious sigils were carved on the bones of the “Bone Fire Spirit Fish,” as if they held some profound mystery.

Ye Chen enveloped the sigils with his Divine Sense, remembering them in his mind.

After completing his observation, Ye Chen extended his finger, and a purple-gold sword light suddenly shot out, slaying the “Bone Fire Spirit Fish” confined in the void on the spot.

According to the rules of the Ninth Region, only by slaying the “Bone Fire Spirit Fish” can one obtain the special flames to enter the “Ice Flame Cave.”

After slaying the fish, Ye Chen immediately looked towards its position.

There, he saw a golden flame flying directly towards him.

On this golden flame were also inscribed various sigils, and Ye Chen found that these sigils matched exactly the ones he had remembered on the bones of the “Bone Fire Spirit Fish” earlier.

They were simply many times larger in length.

In an instant, the golden flame enveloped Ye Chen, and through the golden flame, Ye Chen sensed the location of the “Ice Flame Cave” below the lake.

Without hesitation, Ye Chen, wrapped in the golden flame, leaped into the lake.

Mysteriously, upon entering the lake, Ye Chen could not swim in any other direction but was instead pulled by an unknown force directly towards the sensed “Ice Flame Cave.”

He couldn’t even observe the condition of other places in the lake.

This pulling speed was extremely fast, and in about ten breaths of time, Ye Chen flew to the front of a secret cave under the lake.

Looking at this secret cave, a circular archway was revealed.

Ye Chen noticed that this archway wasn’t open; it was formed by clusters of terrifying, white icy flames.

Just looking at these white icy flames, Ye Chen could feel that they were much stronger than any Polar Sky level flames he had acquired.

However, Ye Chen did not employ the method to obtain this icy flame.

After a moment of observation, he was directly pulled into the “Ice Flame Cave.”
