Chapter 246 I am a little fish (1)
"Bo?"
"Bobobo?"
In a lake, two fish, one white and one black, are facing each other and blowing bubbles.
It is Jingli and 6058.
This is their second month in this world.
This is the first time that Jingli has entered a world without a human form, but instead, like 6058, she has become a small fish.
To make matters worse, this world is a cultivation world with a high level of cultivation, and there is no internet. The two people trapped in the lake lost their means of gathering information.
To this day, they know nothing about the world except for basic information and its normal development.
It is known that the original scene was a small fish that Meng Li accidentally awakened.
Meng Li is a savior of the mortal world. By chance, she awakened her spiritual root and embarked on the path of cultivation.
From the moment the little fish took human form, it followed Meng Li to her side, gradually becoming like a younger brother to her.
Later, during Meng Li's journey to seek immortality, the two encountered disciples of Misty Mountain. The disciples mistook Xiao Yu for a monster and almost killed her.
It was the eldest brother, Chunqi, who intervened in time and saved the two.
Afterwards, Meng Li, Xiao Yu, and the disciples of Misty Mountain resolved the matter of the demonic disturbance and returned to Misty Mountain with everyone else.
On their journey of seeking enlightenment, Jingli, the little fish, and Mr. Yuan, who is devoted to this world, gradually develop different feelings for each other.
Chun Qishi, the eldest disciple of the Qingfeng Jiyue sect, made the most unorthodox decision in the eyes of the righteous cultivators. He relinquished all affairs of Piaomiao Mountain, left Piaomiao Mountain, and became a Daoist partner with Jingli, who was a demon. He devoted his life to the peace and stability of the world.
That's all the information they have. As for where the world is now, where Meng Li is, and where Misty Mountain is, they have absolutely no clue.
Although Jingli has not yet taken human form, given the way the world was polluted before, this doesn't necessarily mean anything; the outside world might have already been turned upside down.
Therefore, both of them... no, now they are two fish, and both are a little anxious.
The lake was vast, and there was no one moving about on its shore. The only sounds were the occasional, indistinct noises coming through the water, and it was impossible to tell whether they were human wails or wild beast roars.
They couldn't even tell whether it was the middle of nowhere or the residence of some nobleman.
There are other aquatic creatures in the lake. Jingli tried to communicate with them, but unfortunately, there are no intelligent creatures in this lake. Their simple minds are only thinking about how to fill their stomachs.
Just now, Jingli felt a distinct warmth in her chest, as if something was gathering there.
That led to the conversation we just had.
"what?"
"what happened?"
"I think I feel a power." Jingli swayed her fish tail.
As a small fish, he was pure white all over, without a single blemish, except for his tail, which was exceptionally beautiful red. The tail peduncle transitioned from white to red, as smooth as his body. Sunlight shone through the water and fell beautifully on him.
When 6058 was talking in the scene, the panel was opened, but no difference could be seen.
The power given by Mr. Yuan in the previous world had already been integrated into Jingli's own energy through his repeated use, and it shouldn't have taken so long to appear.
Just as the two fish were about to investigate, 6058 suddenly sensed something approaching.
Almost instinctively, he pulled Jingli and ran, but for a moment he forgot that he had no hands. When he came to his senses and turned around, there was no trace of the fish where Jingli had just been.
"You little fish, you've got some skills after all," came a female voice from a Gu practitioner. "You don't seem very smart either; you didn't even try to run away when someone tried to catch you."
6058 immediately realized what had happened, turned around, and returned to its previous position.
The female voice came again: "Hmm?"
As the water rippled slightly, 6058 returned to Jingli's side once again.
The two fish were placed in a bucket and covered with a net made of some unknown material.
Jingli and 6058 could have easily escaped, but they tacitly refrained from doing so.
The woman who captured them didn't show any obvious malice, so it might become an opportunity for them to learn about the world.
So both fish chose to maintain their fish personas, pretending to be two silly fish.
"I can't believe that my place can raise koi with the power of merit. Little fish, you are really amazing."
The woman seemed to be talking to herself, waving her finger between Jingli and 6058.
"Since it possesses the power of merit, then..."
She suddenly paused, seemingly lost in thought. A short while later, she withdrew her hand, and a bead of blood suddenly seeped from between her fingers.
Little Black Fish: "Pop?" You bit her?
Little White Fish: "Pop pop pop!" I didn't! I didn't even open my mouth! I don't have any teeth! ???
The woman's eyes gradually became unfocused, and a strange smile appeared on her lips.
Jingli and 6058, the two fish, trembled and hid at the edge of the bucket.
Just as the woman's fingers were about to fall and a bead of blood was about to flow, she suddenly frowned and then wiped away the blood with her other hand with great disgust.
"never mind."
After she finished speaking, she waved her hand, and the restraints on the bucket were gone.
She picked up the bucket, intending to put the two fish back into the lake, but stopped after spilling some water.
“Never mind,” she said again, murmuring, “It’s up to fate.”
After saying that, she picked up the bucket again and walked away from the lake with the two fish.

As the woman moved around, the scene felt increasingly magical.
The feeling was both like him swimming freely in the water as a fish and like the warmth and comfort he had felt inside the egg.
Something filled the air around him that made him feel exceptionally comfortable, just like when he went to a decontaminated mining area in the last world. It caused the energy in his body to ripple slightly, washing over his body as a small fish.
"There should be something like a spirit-gathering array here. I can feel the spiritual energy; it's very abundant," came 6058's voice.
Previously, 6058 had also traveled to the world of cultivation with Mr. Lu, so he knew what it felt like to be in the spiritual energy.
Jingli popped out two bubbles, which meant that he, as the little fish, was nodding.
He quietly sensed the so-called "spiritual energy" around him. It seemed very close to Jingli, gathering towards him and vying to enter his body, where it then became entangled with the energy within him.
Something inside my body seems to be being awakened.
The same was true for 6058. While sensing the spiritual energy around him, he also fell into a state of near-drunkenness.
The woman took the two fish to a small spring, released them into it, and then left.
At the same time, the previously indistinct sounds became more pronounced.
It sounded like a muffled groan of suppressed emotion, or perhaps a light, pleasurable pant.
6058 flicked its tail, shaking off the dazed state caused by the spiritual energy, and leaned closer to Jingli: "Something seems wrong here. The spiritual energy is clearly quite abundant, but the smell of blood is very strong."
Generally speaking, cultivators who rely on spiritual energy for cultivation will avoid meaningless killing so as not to shake their Dao heart.
But the woman just now didn't look like a "righteous cultivator" at all.
Originally, 6058 was quite suspicious that this woman was Meng Li, but now he was a little unsure.
