Standing by the riverside, Han Qiwu examined the conditions within the lava river while pulling out Golden Sun.
For so unknown reason, Golden Sun emitted a faint glow in this environnt. Although its attributes remained unchanged,
it was dazzling!
Its appearance value skyrocketed!
"If only it could have a dragon coiling around it," Han Qiwu thought greedily.
"Splash!"
A few seconds later, Han Qiwu suddenly spotted a few long, slender fish resembling eels from last ti. These fish were covered in thick scales, swimming rapidly within the lava river as if gliding through the water.
Upon noticing Han Qiwu, the fish reacted just like before. Their tails flicked, sending jets of lava capable of burning a person into ashes directly toward Han Qiwu’s feet.
Han Qiwu quickly stepped onto his Fire-Wind Wheels to dodge the attack.
"Alright, debts have ancestral roots. Looks like it was you guys who caused trouble last ti!" After dodging the attack, Han Qiwu swiftly took out the fireproof coating he exchanged for points during the Spring Equinox event!
The fireproof coating resembled a paint can used for graffiti, but it was quite substantial and heavy.
Han Qiwu carefully sprayed the fireproof coating onto the fishing line and hook of Golden Sun.
The coating spray was incredibly lightweight and instantly adhered upon contact with the fishing line and hook, forming a thin blue layer. Under the surrounding high temperatures, it quickly dried, fitting snugly on the line and hook.
Han Qiwu grinned smugly and took out several fish baits, spraying each with a layer of fireproof coating as well.
After finishing, he cautiously sprayed a layer of coating on the two fishing floats as well.
"Splash!"
The reckless lava monster fish once again splashed lava toward Han Qiwu.
"Co and fish!"
Han Qiwu attached the bait, swung fiercely, and cast the coated hook and bait directly near the mouth of the lava monster fish.
Unlike last ti, the hook and bait covered in fireproof coating remained entirely unaffected by the lava, keeping their shape and color intact.
Spring Equinox points are amazing!
Every item exchanged was incredibly useful!
The lava monster fish, noticing sothing was off, quickly turned tail to flee.
What’s going on here? Last ti, the hook turned red as soon as it entered the lava!
Why is there nothing happening this ti?
"Running away? Dream on!" Han Qiwu stood on the riverside, skillfully using his Fire-Wind Wheels to adjust his position, expertly hooking the lava monster fish by the side of its gills with the bait.
Fishing ga activated!
[Lava Eel: Action Pattern - Hybrid, Skill Effect - Burning]
Han Qiwu glanced at the information in the guide and felt slightly relieved: "So it really is an eel. Judging by the skill description, it doesn’t seem particularly useful."
Perhaps due to environntal changes, the fishing ga interface this ti seed to have undergone a makeover. The entire interface was lava-thed, with the original seawater inside the fra now transford into lava.
I have to admit, the new skin looks pretty cool.
Upon entering the interface, the lava eel didn’t bother to avoid anything. With an arrogant flair, it charged straight for the fishing float, emitting flas all over its body.
"Naive!"
Han Qiwu didn’t flinch at all, refraining from using any skills, simply controlling the float to confront the eel head-on.
As it approached the float, the lava eel opened its mouth to spew a thick stream of lava.
The lava clung to the float upon contact, visibly scorching hot.
Too bad.
Before entering the ga, Han Qiwu had already applied a layer of fireproof coating to the float.
The lava had no effect on the float whatsoever!
Lava eel’s skill rendered ineffective!
Realizing this, the lava eel imdiately turned to flee, demonstrating considerable combat experience.
Unfortunately, it had encountered an angler with even more fishing expertise—Han Qiwu!
"Think you can scare with your lava splashes? You almost forced to settle for grilled fish to calm my nerves." Han Qiwu, feigning helplessness, unleashed Golden Edge and Thunderbolt Technique, effortlessly pulling the eel onto dry land.

[Special Effect - Swim Freely: Grants immunity to lava damage for 15 minutes upon consumption]
[Note: Ensure your timing device is functioning properly when swimming in lava]
"A thousand gold value??" Han Qiwu was quite surprised—it was his first ti seeing a fish outside of the secret realm valued in the four digits!
Its special effect also seed exceptionally practical.
Lava immunity, wow!
No wonder it’s called Swim Freely!
After eating it, you can literally swim through lava!
As for the note...
Han Qiwu agreed with it entirely.
"If you’re going into the lava, make sure not to push it till the last second. Once the tir hits halfway, it’s best to head ashore imdiately." Han Qiwu silently reminded himself.
This isn’t being cowardly!
It’s avoiding unnecessary risks.
After storing the lava eel, Han Qiwu wasted no ti and continued casting his rod to fish.
Seeing their companion vanish, the remaining watching lava eels promptly scattered and swam away.
Observing is fine, but risking one’s own life isn’t!
Can’t just die for the sake of curiosity!
"Running now? Too late!"
Han Qiwu scanned the area and quickly used his Fire-Wind Wheels to chase after an even larger lava eel. After locking onto it, he threw his fishing hook decisively.
It missed by a slight margin.
The startled lava eel sped up significantly, heading straight for a crack in a floating stone in the lava.
Han Qiwu grew anxious; letting it hide would make fishing it out later extrely troubleso.
His fishing line couldn’t bend around corners!
One last chance!
Han Qiwu took a deep breath, activated Ice Phoenix Wings, boosting his speed dramatically, and cast his hook mid-air!
The hook flew swiftly into the lava, perfectly catching the eel’s mouth just before it could retreat fully into the crack!
Its head was already halfway inside!
"Using the Phoenix Cloak for fishing isn’t bad at all," Han Qiwu chuckled, ca to a stop, and took a hearty sip of White Reed Root before resuming his fishing.
Upon entering the fishing ga interface, he was pleasantly surprised to find a treasure chest floating in the center of the lava!
Must grab it!
[Golden Edge]!
[Golden Light]!
[Interdiate Thunderbolt Technique]!
With three skills unleashed, the lava eel was instantly stunned.
Han Qiwu grabbed the treasure chest first before effortlessly fishing up the lava eel.
A double victory!
Absolute bliss!
The attributes of this lava eel were similar to the previous one. After a quick glance, he stored it into his inventory.
Ti to open the treasure chest!
The chest resembled the appearance of lava, with a dark red surface and faint heat emanating from it—as if freshly retrieved from the lava. Exposed to the air, it slowly darkened and oxidized.
Not wasting any ti, Han Qiwu swiftly lifted the lid to inspect the contents.
"It’s the sa special stone the lava eel was trying to hide in?" Han Qiwu exclaid in astonishnt.
He hastily donned gloves coated with fireproof material and forcefully pulled the item from the chest.
[Congratulations on obtaining the Thermostone from the treasure chest]
