--- Chapter 244 ---

Yu Long stared at the steady-running river and sighed, "Even if I force myself into the other space, I wouldn't get anywhere." 

"Fishing, huh? I used to fish near the Yu Clan's residence and catch trout as a training method, well for lunch, too..." He added while staring at the icy blue rod. 

Tempest transformed into her human form and said, "God Master, do you want me to demonstrate how to fish on the Star River first? Although my skill is not the best, I usually got some good catches." 

"Sure." Yu Long searched for a cozy area and found a clean gray rock to sit on.

Tempest conjured a fishing rod from profound energy, enhancing it further with her wind control. After that, a fortified line, a feather-shaped sinker, and hooks were 'skillfully' added to her fishing rod. 

Yu Long watched this, nodding in appreciation because Tempest's control over energy wasn't horrible.

Tempest breathed in and out, looking very serious. Yu Long was sure she was praying or something in her heart, and then the green bird cast her first attempt. 

The hook fell with the sinker, entering the unstable spatial wall and passing through it successfully. 

"I see..." Yu Long realized something.

"Since the line is thin. It could pass through the unstable spatial wall and then catch the Demonic Core (Essence Sphere)." 

"Since it's also constantly connected to the fishing rod, the line is always supplied with profound energy and acts as a bait on the hook." 

"The sinker... How weird, why are you adding sinker, Tempest?" 

"Sinker?" Tempest tilted her head. "No, God Master. The feather is actually a bobber." 

"The space within the Star River is inflexible. We usually added a bobber so we could detect the disturbance." 

"How complicated..." Yu Long honestly commented. 

Tempest agreed with Yu Long's casual words but couldn't say anything about this method. It was proven effective for sixteen years, which says things about this fishing technique.

There is a saying in the Demonic Star Secret Realm. 

To get things in this secret realm, one needs two things.

A great luck.

And master the art of fishing. 

Kreak!

Tempest's fishing rod bends sharply.

"I got a bite!" Tempest excitedly said, pulling her fishing rod with all her might. 

Boom!

The Star River spewed a small water pillar, revealing an essence sphere with a clear green color. It was a small essence sphere, but looking at Tempest's happy face, it was probably the one she needed. 

"Yes, the wind element one... And this glow, I got the rare grade!" The green happily hugged her catch.

Yu Long was confused this time and asked, "There is a grade for Demonic Cores?" 

He was the one who created these essence spheres in the past but never knew there was a classification on them.

Tempest cleared her throat and replied, "Yup, there is." 

"They are specified from elements, shine, and kind." 

"Elements are 'naturally' represented by the Demonic Core's color. As you can see, green is wind, red is fire, blue is water, yellow is earth, etc." 

"There are cases of double elements like Burning Venom's, but it was quite rare." 

"Shine determines the grade as white means it was the lowest, green means uncommon, blue is magical, yellow is rare, purple is epic, orange is unique, and red is the highest." 

"As for kind, they are patterns that determine Demonic Core's origin." 

"One striped usually means it comes from beasts." 

"Two stripes means it comes from a humanoid creature."

"Three-striped means it comes from spiritual creatures." 

"Four-stripped... I never saw it, but rumor said the Heavenly King of Greed got it once ten years ago." 

Yu Long's mouth twitched because the classifications were random. He never specified things when creating the essence sphere.

Stripes aren't the only patterns on the essence sphere because they always appear random. Sometimes, they could be stars or dots and shines mean nothing. 

It all depends on the raw essence Yu Long harvested and condensed from.

The element part is correct, though. 

Yu Long played around with the ice crystal rod and created a line with a sinker and hooks attached, casting it casually. His childhood memory overlapped with the sight of a steady-running river. 

At the same time, a 'certain' memory of his past life flashed. 

"Fishing isn't just about throwing bait at fish, Hayate." A lanky-looking man sat by the lake. He looks handsome in futuristic armor, but unfortunately, one of his arms is prosthetic.

"You must feel every movement near the line, the vibration and everything." 

"Don't be tempted by the small bite of the fish. Let it taste your delicious bait before reaching the hook and sending itself to your front door." 

"Just the way life is, you shouldn't be curbed by brief temptation..."

"There is a brighter chance in the future." 

"I don't say this as one of your only friends. I say this as an older brother to his younger brother." The lanky-looking man grinned at Yu Long. 

No, he grinned at Hayate, specifically.

Yu Long's heart shook suddenly, "Wait, don't tell me..." 

ZZZZTTT!

"God Master! The line! Something bit the hook!" Tempest hurriedly said to Yu Long, awakening him from his stupor.

Weirdly, the icy blue rod and Yu Long don't look restrained. 

He casually tugged the line and pulled a golden-colored essence sphere with zig-zag patterns. 

"Woah. I have never seen such a Demonic Core before." Tempest was shocked and overjoyed for Yu Long. 

Rawr!

Camilla sniffed the essence sphere and roared happily, asking Yu Long to give it to her. Apparently, this one is suitable for her.

Yu Long tossed the essence sphere away, and Camilla bounced to eat it like an adorable puppy. 

He gazed at the Star River again, "It can't be you, right?" 

"But why are you here? Aren't you supposed to be on earth?" 

Yu Long vented his frustration by fishing essence spheres, gathering a small pile of it in minutes. 

Tempest couldn't believe her eyes.

And Camilla basically rolled around in joy. 

Wow, so many Demonic Cores. 

"As expected of God Master, he's the Fishing Master!" Tempest couldn't help but praise Yu Long. In her life, she has never seen someone with such a godly fishing skill.

Not even the first-ranked Heavenly King has such an ability.

But Tempest's shock soon turned into numbness.

Why? 

Yu Long always succeeded in fishing Demonic Cores every damn time, like he was attaching a special magnet on his hook that attracted these Demonic Cores.

The success rate is 100%!

Besides that, the Demonic Cores Yu Long fished were the rare ones with Epic grade or above. 

"..." Tempest. 

Why are people so different? 

Unknown to Tempest, Yu Long's success is 'deeply' tied to his Kaiju Maker. 

Since Yu Long created these essence spheres with Kaiju Maker, they obviously accepted the call of their creators. 

Unfortunately, Yu Long can't fish everything at once. 

He also doesn't want to fish weak essence spheres and only focuses on the useful ones. 

Three hours later, Tempest sobbed and rubbed a stick on the ground.

Camilla is also quiet, glancing at the small mountain beside Yu Long with endless jealousy. 

Yu Long smiled at their timid acts, "I will give you two some Demonic Cores later." 

"Let's change the area because this will be my last cast." He added while storing the essence spheres in his Kaiju Dimension. He said that because this part of Star River is basically empty of usable goods now. 

Simply put, the fish is gone.

"The last one..." Yu Long cast a little seriously, using his Kaiju Maker's aura at the hook.

One second.

Two seconds.

Three-!

ZZZT!

The line shook violently. 

"This is a big one." Yu Long commented while waiting for the other side to tire out first. 

After a few minutes, Yu Long pulled the rod with 1% of his strength.

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!!!

Tempest's eyes bulged at the thing that Yu Long pulled out. 

An essence sphere the size of a handball hovered in the air. It's a mix of red and purple color, with seven stripes and a golden hue.

"S-S-Seven Stripped Demonic Core!!" Tempest shouted in disbelief.

"Oh, I didn't expect to find this here." Yu Long put on a rare smile. 

"My luck isn't bad." 

"I actually got Six-Winged Angel's Essence Sphere."
