Chapter 724: Chapter 724: Electric Energy Stone
Theke was enormous, and Song Jian knew, there were more monsters lurking within than just the Deepwater Crocodile Beast he was currently facing. There might even be more vicious ones.
However, Song Jian was confident that the treasure which enabled limb regeneration was indeed located beneath thiske;
After a moment of hesitation, Song Jian slowly sank into the water, opened his eyes, and began intently observing his surroundings. The amount of time he could spend underwater was only 15 minutes. If he exceeded 15 minutes, he would start losing Vitality Points increasingly faster. And in just a few seconds, he would lose all of his Vitality Points;
Theke was crystal clear. Song Jian spotted many monsters underwater, including dozens or even hundreds of Deepwater Crocodile Beasts. Other monsters, simr to fish with no legs were also plentiful;
Furthermore, theke contained an abundance of water-elemental creatures, simr to those Song Jian had previously encountered in Jinyang Lake, but markedlyrger and more formidable;
Song Jian was there not to hunt monsters and level up, but in search for the limb-regenerating treasure. As such, he carefully avoided any confrontations. When running out of breath, he would swim up for a rest before diving back;
After a little over an hour, he had covered less than a tenth of the area. Despite all the efforts, he didn’t find anything except a horde of monsters at theke bottom.
“Should I try cutting off another monster’s limb and observe its regeneration process?” Song Jian pondered with a frown;
Suddenly, a strong water disturbance was felt ahead. ncing forward, Song Jian saw a cloud of silt being churned from theke bed. It seemed like two monsters were fighting;<div>
All of the surrounding monsters were drawn to themotion but are soon scared away;
Before long, all the other monsters hadpletely retreated from the fighting duo;
Song Jian examined the stats of these two battling monsters. Both had first-tier Combat Power. One was a level 35 Deepwater Crocodile Beast, and the other was a level 38 Deepwater Lake Eel;
The battle was intense. As Song Jian moved closer, he saw the two monsters tiring. Suddenly, the tail of the Deepwater Lake Eel swept around, releasing a huge electric shock attack at the Deepwater Crocodile Beast, flinging him away;
Boom!
The Deepwater Crocodile Beast was propelled five or six meters away, as if it hit an invisible wall underwater, creating a dull sound;
In the void, a crack seemingly appeared and vanished almost immediately in the water. However, its brief sh caught Song Jian’s eye, and his heart brimmed with anticipation.
“Could there be something simr to a hidden realm at the bottom of thiske?” He thought to himself. Resting his impulsive urge to investigate, he decided to wait for the two monsters to finish their duel;
Before long, the Deepwater Crocodile Beast lost and retreated. The victorious Deepwater Lake Eel was also severely injured and didn’t pursue its defeated opponent. In time, the fleeing Crocodile Beast disappeared, and the Eel remained in ce, curling its wounded body;
Song Jian noticed the Deepwater Lake Eel seemed to be guarding a dazzling stone. This stone was the size of a human head and was partially buried in thekebed but was exposed during the fight;
This stone emitted a strong, pale blue light. Its surface crackled with small arcs of electricity. The Deepwater Lake Eel frequently licked the surface of the stone, seemingly obtaining pleasure from it;
Just then, four sharp long swords raced through the water like lightning. Before it could react, the Deepwater Lake Eel, already gravely injured, was sliced into several pieces. It died without even catching a glimpse of what Song Jian looked like;@@novelbin@@
Song Jian swam over, picked up two items dropped by the Deepwater Lake Eel, then turned his attention to the brilliant blue stone;
Since the Deepwater Lake Eel had been severely injured in a lengthy battle with the Deepwater Crocodile Beast, it was not too challenging for Song Jian to kill it. Therefore, the quality of the items it dropped was not much to look at. After a brief nce, Song Jian threw them into his inventory;
The pale blue stone, however, was a Power Stone. It could trigger evolution in pets and potentially bestow electric attack skills;
The energy contained in this Power Stone was too robust for the Deepwater Lake Eel to devour directly, as it would likely burst. Hence, it was absorbing the energy slowly;
As a result, the Power Stone ended up being a steal for Song Jian;
Looking at the stone-person and the ck Dragon in his Pet Space, Song Jian hesitated. Who should he give the Power Stone to?
The stone-person, who had swallowed the core of an earth-element lord, was currently in a deep sleep. It had grown significantly, now nearly as tall as a grown man;
The ck Dragon, having healed, was dozing idly. Sensing Song Jian’s attention on him, the dragon abruptly opened its golden eyes and roared a profound dragon chant, seemingly sending a greeting to Song Jian;
Song Jian smiled slightly. The stone-person was merely amon beast and didn’t even possess the first-tier Combat Power. If it tried to absorb this electric Power Stone, who knows how long it would take. It would be better to give it to the ck Dragon. With the ck Dragon’s ranking, it probably wouldn’t struggle as much as the Deepwater Lake Eel in absorbing the stone;
Song Jian held the Power Stone and selected “use” for the ck Dragon. Instantly, a pale blue Power Stone, crackling with electricity, appeared in front of the ck Dragon in the Pet Space;
Seeing this Power Stone, the ck Dragon pawed at it curiously and then popped it into its mouth as its eyes gleamed with anticipation;
Zzzzt!
Electric currents ran across the dragon’s scales, emitting increasingly intense dragon chants. These sounds didn’t seem painful but rather enjoyable;
“This is pretty much like an electric massage…” Song Jian watched the ck Dragon roll around in the Pet Space, asionally being zapped by a surge of electricity. However, it was clear that the dragon’s strength was swiftly increasing, and its level was rapidly climbing, from 30 to 32, and still rising;
“Looks like this won’t be over any time soon. I’ll check once it fully absorbs the Power Stone.” Song Jian shook his head, closed the Pet Space, and walked towards where he’d noticed the spatial crack;
