BXBX NOVEL Chapter 166: Chapter 166 Jade Spirit Pearl
The barrier shook violently. Inside, Blaze Regret felt as if an earthquake had struck. It took a while for the barrier to stabilize, its surface covered in black liquid.
"A Water Ink Turtle, a mid tier eighth grade spirit beast," Blaze Regret said, his face darkening as he looked at the attacker. It was a massive turtle with a hard shell on its back, as heavy as a towering hill.
Swimming in front of the barrier, the Water Ink Turtle looked greedily at Blaze Regret inside, its eyes gleaming with bloodlust. To it, a spirit master like Blaze Regret was merely a weak prey.
It extended its claw and fiercely struck the spirit powered barrier, trying to shatter it. Invisible water waves spread out from the point of impact.
"You\'ve got some nerve!"
Blaze Regret\'s eyes turned cold. The Ice Control Irenix he controlled appeared, its wings sharp as blades. It drew an icy blue arc, instantly severing the claw that the Water Ink Turtle was using to strike the barrier.
Although the fire attribute spirit beast Red couldn\'t survive underwater, the Ice Control Irenix wasn\'t much affected, its movement speed only slightly reduced. Due to certain special reasons, the Ice Control Irenix could even perform better underwater than on land. Discover more stories at m,v l\'e-NovelBin.net
The extended claw split in two, the severed part slowly sinking to the riverbed. The Water Ink Turtle retracted its limbs in pain, then fiercely rammed its shell against the barrier surrounding Blaze Regret. The dull thudding sounds echoed through the water.
"Ice Control Irenix, freeze it!"
Blaze Regret\'s sharp voice rang out. The Ice Control Irenix\'s wings moved silently, emitting a bone chilling cold energy that enveloped the Water Ink Turtle layer by layer. In an instant, it formed a massive block of ice.
Encased in the ice, the Water Ink Turtle\'s eyes filled with panic. No matter how much it struggled, it couldn\'t break through the pure ice.
"Ding!"
The Ice Control Irenix moved, appearing above the ice block. Its right wing paused briefly before slicing down mercilessly. Instantly, cracks spread rapidly across the ice block. With a loud sound, the Water Ink Turtle inside was shattered into countless pieces, drifting in the river. The black shell floated for a moment before slowly sinking to the riverbed.
"So this is the Ice Control Irenix\'s power," Blaze Regret\'s eyes gleamed. The Ice Control Irenix\'s terrifying attack method was indeed hard to defend against. Once an enemy was frozen, it basically meant instant death.
Flapping its icy wings, the Ice Control Irenix sliced through the water, returning to Blaze Regret\'s side, vigilantly scanning the surroundings. Underwater, its sensing ability was far superior to that of a spirit master.
"Little guy, it\'s safe here now. Shall we go up?" Master Magi suddenly pointed to the water\'s surface and asked.
"No rush. I remember there\'s a herb called Blue Ming Grass growing underwater. It\'s used to make Qi Restoration Pills. Although it also grows on land, it\'s much scarcer there than at the riverbed," Blaze Regret\'s eyes flashed as he shook his head.
"You just want to see if there\'s any treasure in the Black Water River, don\'t you?" Master Magi saw through Blaze Regret\'s little scheme without hesitation and laughed.
"Since we\'re already here, wouldn\'t it be a waste to leave empty handed? That\'s not the Blaze Regret way," Blaze Regret said confidently, puffing out his chest.
"Suit yourself," Master Magi said, shaking his head with a mix of amusement and exasperation. He then placed his palm against the barrier, infusing it with a surge of powerful energy, making the barrier even thicker.
The danger level in the Black Water River was no less than that of remote mountain ranges. In just a few minutes, dozens of water type spirit beasts had perished under the Ice Control Irenix\'s icy wings.
"Crash!"
As the barrier moved to the riverbed, what initially appeared to be calm algae suddenly coiled towards Blaze Regret like a centipede, emitting a bloodthirsty aura.
Centipede Algae, a low tier warrior grade spirit beast, could survive underwater just like some wood type spirit beasts.
Frowning slightly, Blaze Regret watched as the Ice Control Irenix swiftly dispatched the Centipede Algae. Just as he was about to leave, his gaze fell upon something. Concealed beneath the numerous Centipede Algae, a brilliant river clam appeared in his sight, its shell glowing with a soft, luminous light.
With the movement of the golden light shield, Blaze Regret slowly sank down. Seeing the death of the centipede algae, the small water type spirit beasts residing there scattered in all directions.
The Ice Control Irenix gently tapped the clam shell with its icy wings. Instantly, several water jets shot out from the shell, sending it flying several meters away.
"Jade River Clam?" A hint of surprise flashed in Blaze Regret\'s eyes.
The Jade River Clam is a high tier aquatic spirit beast. Though not rare, it is unique in that some Jade River Clams may contain a mystical item known as the Jade Spirit Pearl. Possessing this item allows one to move underwater without hindrance and even breathe.
However, the probability of finding a Jade Spirit Pearl is quite low. On average, only one out of every ten Jade River Clams contains such a pearl, and once used, the mystical item automatically shatters.
"Ice Control Irenix, pry open its shell," Blaze Regret\'s deep voice commanded.
Nodding slightly, the Ice Control Irenix extended its icy wings. Just as the Jade River Clam was about to spray water jets, the wings were jammed inside, and with a forceful pry, a brilliant round pearl shot out.
"There really is one!" Blaze Regret excitedly caught the Jade Spirit Pearl in his hand and looked at the Jade River Clam in astonishment. This creature was smart enough to know what to do to protect itself.
