After completing the necessary procedures, Zhao Jinbao brought Lee Da and the others and went to the fish pond to have a look. From today to this year three years later, Zhao Jinbao had the absolute right to use the fish pond.

If he could catch fish in the irrigation canal, although it was a good method, in the end, it was not a long term plan. Just with Zhao Jinbao catching fish with a few hundred kilograms a day, there would definitely come a day when he finished catching them all. Therefore, Zhao Jinbao thought about how he should achieve sustainable development.

Zhang Yuanshan's pond was very big. If the scale was really developed, coupled with a large pond like the irrigation ditch, it would definitely be able to dominate Seafood Street and even the entire Three Springs Town's aquatic industry.

Oh right, Lee Da, help me find a way to contact the ones who are selling fish shoots in the town. I want to take advantage of this opportunity and enter the next batch of fish seedlings. Zhao Jinbao said to Lee Da.

"Alright, boss, you should head back earlier as well. It's a hot day, don't get sunstroke!" Lee Da said.

"Yes, yes!" Zhao Jinbao nodded.

After getting everyone else to leave, Zhao Jinbao walked along the slope to the edge of the pond. He wanted to see if any fish still lived in the pond that had been in this long time.

Just like recruiting fish in the irrigation ditch, Zhao Jinbao reached his hand into the pond, released a bit of the Dragon Pearl's power, and a weak golden light spread along the water's edge. As expected, a few seconds later, there was movement at the bottom of the pond.

Gradually, the fishes that were attracted approached Zhao Jinbao, but there were too few of them, when he glanced over, he was afraid there were only around ten of them.

This was a fish pond after all. Even if no one was in charge of it, it shouldn't have been so desolate. After recruiting fish, one's mental state would not be very good, and swimming would be extremely strenuous.

Zhao Jinbao finally understood why Zhang Yuanshan did not continue to raise fish. This was indeed not suitable for him to raise fish anymore, even live fishes could be raised to death, what was there to earn profit from, no wonder others would think that it was too much even if they spent 10,000.

Zhao Jinbao sighed and retracted his hand. But when he was about to leave, he suddenly realized that there was something strange.

The light emitted by the dragon bead wasn't just light. It was more like a liquid with a very spiritual nature. Unless it naturally dissipated, it wouldn't disappear. At this moment, the energy of the dragon pearl was still present on the surface of the fish pond. However, all of the energy was concentrated in the center of the pond.

Zhao Jinbao stared at the golden light for a while and realised that the energy was flowing downwards towards the bottom of the lake. This was a strange phenomenon that had never happened before.

There had to be demons when something abnormal happened. Zhao Jinbao did not believe that this was a normal natural phenomenon, the power of the dragon pearl was a supernatural existence, and the only thing that could affect it was something supernatural.

Plop!

Without even thinking, Zhao Jinbao dove straight to the bottom of the pond. The water in the pond was cool and refreshing, but compared to the water in the irrigation canal, it had lost a bit of its spirituality and nature.

Ignoring everything else, Zhao Jinbao swam towards the center of the pond quickly. However, the power of the Dragon Pearl had already disappeared, so he had no choice but to release a bit more.

Because he was very close to the center of the pond, the scene from before became much more obvious. The force that had spread out from his right hand did not scatter in all directions this time.

Seeing this, the corner of Zhao Jinbao's mouth raised into a smile. Indeed, what he saw just now was not an illusion. There was a big secret at the bottom of the pond.

Following the golden light, Zhao Jinbao swam to the top of the place where the abnormality occurred, and then slowly lowered his body. When his feet touched the mud, he lowered his upper body so that his body was in a horizontal state.

The moment the last bit of golden light disappeared, Zhao Jinbao quickly extended his right hand, and followed the path that the golden light went through, and directly reached his hand into the silt. At the same time, he used his mind to connect with the dragon pearl, making it move to his right arm, his brain in a very nervous state.

He did not know what was going on underneath the mud, but to be able to react to the power of the dragon pearl was definitely not an ordinary thing. So, he had to be on guard at all times, and if something was wrong, he had to immediately use the dragon bead to protect himself.

He extended his hand downwards bit by bit, and all that came into his hand was mud. Even when the mud engulfed Zhao Jinbao's arm, he did not discover anything wrong.

Of course, Zhao Jinbao would not give up. The deeper he hid, the more it proved that this thing was not simple. He dug up the mud, leaving behind a rough outline.

After continuously digging several times, Zhao Jinbao finally found something the size of his palm in the deepest part of the silt. It was hard, and its tentacles felt like they came from a stone.

At this moment, he couldn't care less. After digging so deep, even if it were a rock, it would definitely not be an ordinary rock. Slowly withdrawing from the quagmire, Zhao Jinbao used the water of the pond to wash off the mud on his body before walking onto the shore.

The rocks that were dug out from the muddy ground had also been washed clean, it was different from what he imagined, he originally thought that they were black and hard rocks, but now that he looked at them, they were completely smooth without a trace, their color was dark red, and because he was closer to the rocks, Zhao Jinbao could smell the stench of the rocks.

"What a strange stone, it still smells good!" Zhao Jinbao muttered to himself.

Looking up and down, he didn't find anything strange about this stone. After all, many of the stones were completely smooth and had some color. This was normal.

Raising the stone above his head, Zhao Jinbao finally found a rather special place through the sunlight. From a normal point of view, it was indeed a rock. However, through the sunlight, it would be reasonable to say that it was a piece of crystal clear jade. Because under the sunlight, it was almost transparent.

Thinking about what he saw at the bottom of the lake that was abnormal, Zhao Jinbao's heart moved, and the dragon pearl slowly appeared in his hand. The moment the dragon pearl appeared, Zhao Jinbao's hand that was holding the stone suddenly trembled, and desperately tried to move closer to the dragon pearl.

Seeing the reaction between the dragon pearl and the strange rock, Zhao Jinbao was momentarily at a loss as to what to do, but after thinking for a while, since the dragon was the ruler of the Water Clan, since it grew in water, it must be afraid of the dragon pearl. If a strange stone could absorb the power of a dragon pearl, then the dragon pearl would definitely be able to devour that strange stone as well.

If the dragon pearl swallowed the strange stone, would its power be even more heaven-defying?

As he thought about it, Zhao Jinbao's hands started to move. Under his watch, the strange stone and the dragon pearl slowly approached each other, and the moment the two made contact, Zhao Jinbao suddenly felt his vision go black, and his entire person lost all consciousness.
