Wangtianhu paused slightly, then squeezed the colorful golden carp even harder.
"No, whoever gets it owns it! I caught this fish, so it should belong to me."
He muttered quietly, "I have tasted dragon meat. It is said that the taste of this seven-colored golden carp is as delicious as dragon meat. Although this fish is a little thin, it is enough to fill the gaps between teeth. It is a fresh taste."
The colorful golden carp was controlled by his divine sense, and a large part of its body was immediately dented. Its two eyes kept rolling back, and it looked like it was about to faint.
Xu Chunniang couldn't bear it any longer, so she used her divine power to snatch the colorful golden carp from Wangtianhou's hands.
"You're about to crush it to death! This is the property of the Tree People, not mine. If you kill it, the Tree People will blame me, and will they hand you over?"
As she spoke, she threw the colorful golden carp into the spiritual pond and released it directly.
When the golden carp got into the water, it immediately became energetic, unlike the dying state when it was caught. The sunken part of the fish's body also swelled up, recovering instantly.
It dived into the depths of Lingtan and disappeared without a trace.
Wang Tianhu was very angry, "Look! It was clearly pretending just now! Humph, it thought I couldn't find it because it hid in the deep water again. I'm going to catch it again!"
This time, Xu Chunniang did not stop her and just said it calmly.
"Don't forget, you are just a remnant soul now. Even if you catch it, you can't eat it."
Wang Tianhu was immediately discouraged, but he still looked at Lingtan eagerly, "I can catch it first and raise it for a while before eating it."
"The seven-colored golden carp is very fragile. You want to raise it when you can't even protect yourself. Give up the idea!"
Wang Tianhu was a little annoyed, "Ah! Damn it, when will you be able to break through to the fusion stage and release me from this broken pot?"
"If you want me to break through as soon as possible, just be quiet. How can I calm down and comprehend the power of the law if you are so noisy?"
Wangtianhu finally stopped talking. After the colorful golden carp swam away, the water surface slowly returned to calm.
The tall cypresses and quaint tree houses reappear in the reflection in the water.
Wang Tianhu waited for a long time, and seeing Xu Chunniang staring at Lingtan in a daze, he finally couldn't help but ask.
"Aren't you going to comprehend the power of the law? What's so good about this spiritual pond?"
Xu Chunniang didn't keep it a secret, "I'm looking at my reflection in the water."
"It's just a reflection in the water. What's so good about it?"
Wangtianhu subconsciously glanced at his reflection, then looked up at the cypress tree beside the Lingtan and the tree house on the tree.
The water surface is very calm, perfectly replicating the cypress trees and tree house, even down to the smallest details.
Xu Chunniang reminded, "Above the water are real things, and the reflections below the water are exactly the same as these things, but they are virtual."
"Isn't this obvious?"
Wangtianhu was bored and touched the water in the pond with his divine sense, causing ripples to appear on the surface of the water and the reflection in the water also began to sway.
It found it interesting and sent more spiritual thoughts into the lake, disturbing the water's tranquility.
But at this moment, Wang Tianhu suddenly thought of something and paused, "The law of reality and illusion!"
Aren’t the scenery on the water surface and its reflection under the water a pair of symbiotic laws of reality and illusion
"The power of law is everywhere."
Seeing that he finally figured it out, Xu Chunniang nodded slightly, and simply decided not to go back to the tree house, but to meditate beside the pool of water.
She originally thought that as long as she could transform the real and the unreal, she would be able to successfully open up the real and unreal domain.
But now, after seeing this pool of water, she realized that the most important thing between reality and illusion is not the transformation into each other, but the symbiosis with each other.
After restoring her spiritual energy, Xu Chunniang condensed the laws of emptiness and reality at the same time, and tried again to open up the realm of emptiness and reality.
When Wangtianhu saw that she couldn't take care of him, he quietly rolled back and slid into the spiritual pond.
He made up his mind. Since he didn't have a body now, he might as well keep the colorful golden carp in this pond for the time being.
It just so happens that the fish is a little thin. If I keep it for a few more days, maybe I can make it grow another two taels of meat.
It won’t be too late to capture it when you leave the Tree People tribe in the future.
Wangtianhu was happily making plans and soon dived deep into the pond, where he ran into the colorful golden carp.
When the colorful golden carp saw him, it was frightened and ran towards deeper depths.
The sky-watching beast was delighted and chased after it relentlessly, making it very embarrassed.
But when the colorful golden carp had no way to escape, a divine thought stopped the Wangtianhu in the soul-calming pot.
"What has the little carp done wrong? Why are you pressing on so hard?"
"Who? Who's talking?"
Wangtianhu looked around suspiciously and finally found a root at the bottom of the pond.
He recognized at a glance that this piece of root came from the cypress tree beside the pond.
Wang Tianhu could not help but get furious, "You cypress tree, you are indeed a tree man. Those two tree men definitely had no good intentions in placing us in this tree house!
Have you been monitoring us these days?"
Bai Shu denied, "You think too much, there is an anti-peeping formation in the tree house, I am not monitoring you at all.
If the little golden carp hadn't called for help, I would still be sleeping now."
Seeing that the colorful golden carp had shrunk behind the root, Wangtianhu knew he was in the wrong and snorted.
"Well, as long as you hand over the little fish, I won't bother with you for now."
"It's not impossible for me to hand over the little golden carp, but it was released into this pond by the king. Are you sure you want it
If you anger the king, not only you, a little spirit, but even your master will never be able to leave the Treeman Kingdom safely!"
Upon hearing that the owner of the little koi was the Treeman King who was in the tribulation period, Wangtianhu couldn't help but hesitate.
The Treeman King who was in the Tribulation Period, even if he was seriously ill, was not someone he and Miss Xu could deal with.
Not to mention, in the Treeman Kingdom, there are a group of powerful people in the fusion stage, and a few rare old guys.
"Humph, I'm not afraid of that sickly little white tree, I just think the fish is too small.
Just let it stay in this deep pool for a while. I will take it away sooner or later!"
After saying that, Wangtianhu controlled the Soul-Calming Pot, turned around, and rushed out of the pool.
As soon as he rushed out, a spiritual power locked onto him firmly and captured the entire Soul-Calming Pot in his palm.
"Did you go and provoke that golden carp again?"
Wang Tianhu rolled his eyes and said, "Guess what I found underneath. This cypress tree turned out to be a tree man, and it's spying on you and me right now!"
Xu Chunniang frowned, turned around and looked at the cypress tree behind her, releasing her spiritual sense to scan the tree back and forth.
Bai Shu was forced to reveal his true form and said helplessly.
“It’s a misunderstanding. It was Wu Chen and Gui Zhi who begged me for help, so I gave up this tree house for you to rest.
"My friend, you have been invited to treat the king of our clan. As a cultivator in the fusion stage, how could I do such a despicable thing?"
