" Young Master, I believe this should have some effect too." Zhou Yan spoke.
" It's true...But it won't be as effective as it should be." Li Qing clenched his fist. " Anyway, Take it and put it inside the jade box. We have already spent a lot of time in Nanhai City. We need to return to the capital."
Meanwhile, Jia Hao and Sang Qiuliu stood outside. Sang Qiuliu felt Jia Hao was paying more attention to the pool.
" What is it, Young Master Jia?"
Jia Hao chuckled. " You don't need to address me Young Master every time, Lady Sang."
" Then don't call me like that too." Sang QIuliu chuckled. " How about this, Brother Jia?"
" Well then, I shall call you Sister Qiuliu." Jia Hao nodded with a smile.
" So, What are you looking at, Brother Jia?" Sang Qiuliu asked with a smile. " Oh, Perhaps you are feeling all stiff and wanting to take a bath?"
" Why? Does Sister Qiukiu wish to accompany me there?" Jia Hao grinned.
Sang Qiuliu was surprised as her face turned slightly red, making her look away. " Bah! Brother Jia, You are a bit too forward."
" Well, I do tend to become a bit cheeky near beautiful women." Jia Hao grinned.
" But enough of that. I feel...This pool is unusual. I wonder if something is hidden inside it."
' Hmm, The pool isn't too deep. If something happens, I can swim out.'
To Sang Qiuliu's surprise, Jia Hao moved as she took off his upper robe, revealing his toned muscles. Without waiting, he jumped into the pool.
With Jia Hao's Sage's Divine Eyes, he could see clearly inside the pool. However, at that moment, he heard another splash.
Turning around, he saw it was Sang Qiuliu, who chose to follow him. Jia Hao didn't bother to get above the surface, He just gestured for Sang Qiuliu to stay behind him and follow him.
Sang Qiuliu nodded as she slowly swam behind Jia Hao. Soon enough, Jia Hao noticed an underwater cave.
Although it was dark inside, Jia Hao could see inside with his Sage's Divine Eyes. Suddenly, his gaze narrowed as he hit a dead end.
One might think it was just a shallow hole inside the pond. But Jia Hao placed his palm on the surface of the wall as he could feel it wasn't dense at all.
[ Water Crystal Ore: A metal ore with water affinity. It's perfect for making flexible weapon for water element user]
[ Water Crystal Ore]
[ Water Energy Crystal: A small crystal filled with turbid water elemental energy]
' Eh? What's this?'
Jia Hao picked a small glittering crystal. Throwing it inside the Pot of Miracles, The crystal turned into dust. Jia Hao was amazed when he saw the pot was accepting all the energy.
' Not to mention, the quality of these crystals is low...but they are still passable.'
Looking around, Jia Hao found a few more crystals and absorbed them all. He kept a few to give to Li Qing.
But then, Jia Hao's eyes narrowed as he suddenly felt some movement in the dark.
In the cave, there was a small pool of water. It was shallow, but the color was like light blue crystal, with two bright lotus swaying gently.
Not only that, there were larger crystals embedded in the wall, making it look like the center of the treasure trove.
However, Jia Hao's eyes remained on the guardian, who was eating a giant fish leisurely.
The scales were shining like refined iron, and the eyes were bright reptilian. It was a giant crocodile with six feet unlike four. The size was massive, as if could gulp an adult male with a single swoop.
[ Iron Back Crocodile: A mid rank beast with the defense of a high rank beast. Despite its size, it can charge forward very fast. But it has trouble to walk in a zigzag way. The weak point is near its neck]
' Well, It looks like I have some hunting to do...' Jia Hao grinned as he slowly took out some wolf meat he carried inside the pot,
Soon enough, the crocodile twitched and smelled the scent of blood. With caution and curiosity, it slowly moved in that direction.
However, as it pounced toward the wolf meat, Jia Hao stepped out from the side as he used his saber.
" Crimson Frenzy Blade Art! Scarlet Blade Storm!"
