Chapter 195: Spatial Crack
" 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.
Backing away a bit, Jia Hao used his saber and stabbed forward. The water made his movement slow, but he kept stabbing the wall more and more.
Suddenly, he felt some movement as he looked at his side. A giant eel charged toward him like an agile serpent.
*KRRR!*
Suddenly, blood burst out as the eel got cut. Jia Hao saw it was none other than Sang Qiuliu, who was holding a sword. Her eyes urged Jia Hao to move faster.
With a thankful gaze, Jia Hao twisted his saber as he made a small crack on the wall before him. As the hole was made, Jia Hao used his hands to hold its edges and rip it apart, tearing the hole wide open.
The water bubbled as Jia Hao felt a surge of vacuum forward. As he made the hole wide open, Jia Hao and Sang Qiuliu moved into it.
All they felt was a flash of blinding light, Sang Qiuliu and Jia Hao felt their body becoming disoriented. They couldn't make any sense of the direction they were moving, but they were just moving.
Suddenly, they swam upwards as they saw a rock ceiling. Looking around, the space was very spacious.
" This…Where the hell is this?" Sang Qiuliu breathed for air as she looked around.
" This place…This doesn't feel like underground at all. The air…It's fresh. The energy here is rich too."
" Miss Sang…I believe we have entered a spatial pocket." Jia Hao looked around as he deduced.
The bright flash of light and slight dizziness, it was probably because Jia Hao got shifted in space.
Sang Qiuliu's expression changed when she heard that. " What? A spatial crack? This…This is dangerous."
" No, I don't think so." Jia Hao replied. " This pocket is very small. I doubt there could be much danger here."
" Sister Qingliu, Go back and inform Qing Li. I shall scout around here."
" No, Brother Jia, It could be dangerous." Sang Qiuliu shook her head. " Promise me you won't move around. Let me come back with others."
Jia Hao smiled at Sang Qiuliu's concern. Very well, Sister Qingliu. I shall be waiting for you."
Sang Qiuliu gave him a stare as she nodded. Taking a deep breath, she dove back and returned to the Wolven Fountain.
Without wasting any time, Jia Hao turned around and started to walk around the cave.
With his Sage' Divine Eyes, he wasn't afraid of any ambushes. However, he still gripped his saber as he moved slowly.
[ 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!"
