There was dead silence as everyone stared blankly at the scene before them.
They wouldn't be surprised if anyone caught a fish. But, Ling Huyang was the only one who had surprised them.
Yesterday, the fish had not even approached Linghu Yang's hook. But now?
As soon as the hook was thrown, a fish bit on it without hesitation and did not resist. This showed that it approved of Linghu Yang.
The Seventh Ancestor, Linghu Jie, and even Linghu Yun found it hard to accept such a huge gap.
Only when the fish was completely pulled onto the shore did it move symbolically. It then turned into a crimson light and disappeared into Su Yu's forehead.
A broken soul trace immediately appeared in Su Yu's mind. The trace was extremely profound, encompassing all the mysteries of the soul realm.
In it, Su Yu even found the shadow of the Soul Exchange Secret Technique.
Inadvertently, Su Yu raised his finger and gently drew a line in the air. A faintly discernible remnant fragment flashed and disappeared.
He had successfully comprehended the ancestral technique fragment.
Then, the fish jumped out of Su Yu's forehead and returned to the ancient well.
Clap! Clap!
It was only then that the Seventh Ancestor stood up and applauded, his face brimming with surprise.
Yes, it was a surprise.
Because it was too unexpected, too unexpected.
Linghu Yun, who had been the most anticipated, had been utterly disappointed, but Su Yu, who had been the least optimistic, had succeeded.
The affairs of the world are hard to predict, but nothing more than that!
"Congratulations!" The Seventh Ancestor stepped forward, his face full of smiles. "From today onwards, the younger generation will have a second-level ancestral technique of the soul."
In this way, Linghu Yang had finally risen from mediocrity to the point where he was on equal footing with Linghu Yun.
How could the Seventh Ancestor not be happy?
On the other hand, the rest of the younger generation had mixed feelings.
Linghu Yang had really risen. He was no longer the abject genius that they had once bullied.
Unexpectedly, Su Yu did not even open his eyes. He calmly said, "Congratulations, we'll talk about it later. Please move aside, I need to hurry."
Because it was expected to be opened earlier, the amount of time he could fish was greatly reduced.
Therefore, he could not afford to rest. He had to seize every second to catch the rest of the fish.
"You still want to continue?" The Seventh Ancestor was startled. "Why don't you take a break first?"
Normally speaking, after catching a fish, it would take at least several years to digest the ancestral technique information within.
Fish would not be interested in fishing lines and hooks that were barely formed without digesting them.
If Su Yu continued to fish after catching a fish, it would only be a waste of time.
Linghu Jie also said with jealousy, "He's been suppressed for too long and has become stupid. Who does he think he is to catch two fish in such a short period of time?"
In the past, very few of the ancestors had such outstanding talent.
Who does Linghu Yang think he is?
However, everyone was petrified once again. What they couldn't believe was that when Su Yu threw his fishing hook into the Ancient Well, an unexpected and shocking scene occurred.
Those leisurely swimming fishes seemed to have gone mad. They swam crazily to the side of the fishing hook and fought to snatch it!
"What?" The Seventh Forefather gasped.
He had presided over the ancestral method comprehension not once or twice, and had seen countless genius clansmen. He had even seen the rare scene of two or three fish fighting over the same fishing hook.
However, he had never seen a scene where all the fish were fighting over it!
There was no record of such a thing in the clan's ancient books.
Whoosh —
With a gentle pull, Su Yu caught another fish.
Just like before, the fish dived into Su Yu's soul and imprinted the fragment in his mind.
After digesting it, Su Yu started fishing again without stopping.
"He … he wants to continue? You must be joking, right? "Linghu Jie could no longer sit still and stepped forward to stop him." How did you do it? Stop right now! "
He felt that Linghu Yang must have cheated.
However, before he could touch Su Yu, the Seventh Forefather rushed over and slapped him across the face, sending him flying.
The Seventh Forefather's face was livid. He said angrily, "What are you trying to do?"
Linghu Jie said, aggrieved, "Seventh Forefather, I … I suspect he is cheating."
He could not accept that Linghu Yang had surpassed him.
"Get lost! If you dare disturb Yang-er's comprehension of ancestral techniques again, I will destroy your cultivation! "The Seventh Forefather was angry, which was rare for him.
He felt that Linghu Jie was hopeless. How could a person be jealous to such a sinister extent?
The Sacred Spirit Tribe had finally produced a genius with extraordinary talent who had the potential to comprehend several ancestral techniques consecutively, but Linghu Jie was trying to obstruct him and interrupt him.
This was unforgivable!
The Seventh Forefather was furious, and the rest of the juniors who had wanted to stop him gave up on the idea.
They could only stare at Su Yu uneasily, silently praying that he would not continue.
However, reality was cruel. As soon as the hook was cast, it was immediately snatched up.
Before long, another fish was successfully caught.
This was the third fish that Su Yu had caught. Including the one that Linghu Yang had caught himself, it would be the fourth.
The hearts of the juniors sank as they looked at Linghu Yang with complicated expressions.
They found that they could only accept this cruel reality that they were unwilling to accept. The Linghu Yang from all those years ago had really returned.
No, he had appeared in front of them in an even more dazzling manner.
From now on, they would once again live in his shadow.
On the contrary, the Seventh Forefather was overjoyed.
When the fourth fish was caught, even the Forefathers in the secret chamber could not sit still anymore.
Without a sound, many unfamiliar old men appeared next to the Seventh Forefather.
Linghu Jie and the other juniors did not even recognize them.
Apart from the Seventh Forefather, the last time the other Forefathers had appeared in public was more than a thousand years ago.
As for the tragedy that happened decades ago, they had only appeared briefly and disappeared without a trace. They had never appeared in public before.
"Unbelievable!" Five Forefathers arrived. They looked at Su Yu, who was concentrating on fishing fish again and again. Their eyes were filled with astonishment.
Having lived for countless years, they knew very well how rare the ancestral techniques in the ancient well were.
However, Su Yu was able to catch them again and again without any effort. It was completely beyond their imagination.
"What has Linghu Yang experienced all these years?" the Second Forefather asked in silence.
The Seventh Forefather muttered, "He has been suppressed for many years. Perhaps it has something to do with this."
However, the Second Forefather shook his head. "The nine fragments of the ancestral soul technique each represent a kind of soul comprehension."
"He has only been suppressed for a long time. At most, he can only resonate with one fish and catch it. It is impossible for him to catch so many in a row."
The faces of the second group were filled with doubt. "Your First Forefather has been through countless storms and waves. He has even experienced parting with his loved ones several times. He has experienced both the sorrow of the world and the joy of the world. Yet, he can only catch four fish in a row."
"It is hard to believe that Linghu Yang has the experience of the First Forefather and has such a profound understanding of the soul. This is not something that can be achieved by being suppressed."
Everyone was filled with doubts.
Indeed, Linghu Yang's transformation was too strange. Two days ago, it was as if he had been reborn. It was as if he had become a different person.
Linghu Jie covered his face and said with grievance, "Second Forefather, this person is definitely not Linghu Yang. Please make a decision, Forefather."
He was one of the descendants of the Second Forefather.
Because Linghu Jie was considered outstanding among the younger generation, the Second Forefather had issued orders in the secret chamber to nurture Linghu Jie carefully.
