Chapter 1728
1728 The Person Who Revived! The Hornless Ice Dragon Pearl! (3)
“This is why the Hornless Ice Dragon Pearl has ‘life’!” The middle-aged man continued. “To all ice-element martial warriors, it’s a priceless treasure.”
“A life?” Wang Teng was confused.
By sealing the soul of the Ice Hornless Dragon inside, the pearl gained a form of ‘life’?
Why does it sound so unreliable?
“I’m not lying. My race’s sealing skill is special. It can allow the Ice Hornless Dragon’s soul to merge with its star core completely. Besides, the two are inherently related, making them perfectly compatible. This Hornless Ice Dragon Pearl has been refined into a priceless treasure,” the middle-aged man said calmly. He seemed aware of Wang Teng’s doubts.
“Amazing!” Wang Teng believed him. He had no doubts now.
This method was similar to forging. A blacksmith could forge weapons with souls but that required profound craftsmanship and expertise.
Also, there was no need for the middle-aged man to lie to him. He even wasted his breath explaining everything.
He was a formidable martial warrior. Would he come all the way here just to fool him?
Clearly impossible!
“This bead possesses an extreme cold power capable of freezing everything. The ice continent you saw just now was formed by this bead,” the middle-aged man explained. “It also has another function. It can merge with special ice to turn the beast soul of the Ice Hornless Dragon into a true spirit, thus enhancing its power greatly.”
“Moreover, this true spirit can devour all kinds of rare ice in the world, continuously strengthening its icy energy.”
“This ability is inherited from the Ice Hornless Dragon!”
“It’s a pity that my race hasn’t been able to obtain that kind of rare ice for many years. Such extraordinary items are scarce and require fortuitous encounters.”
He shook his head emotionally at the end.
Rare ice! Wang Teng repeated in his heart. He wanted to take out his Nether Frost to let the other party take a look.
But, when he remembered that the other party was an ice-element martial warrior, he gave up the idea.
The three different divine flames didn’t arouse his interest but the Nether Frost might.
Wasn’t he seeking death?
Wang Teng decided to study it alone in the future.
However, to be honest, the ice power of the Nether Frost wasn’t as strong as the Hornless Ice Dragon Pearl. The difference was noticeable.
After all, the Ice Hornless Dragon Pearl came from the Ice Hornless Dragon while the Nether Frost came from the Nether World Giant Python.
If the two were compared, the Nether World Giant Python was undoubtedly inferior.
“This is for you!” The middle-aged man suddenly threw the Hornless Ice Dragon Pearl to Wang Teng.
Wang Teng was stunned. He reacted quickly and the three divine flames appeared in his hand. He caught the Hornless Ice Dragon Pearl.
“Senior, you…”
He suppressed the happiness in his heart. On the surface, he appeared extremely puzzled.
“This Hornless Ice Dragon Pearl is yours!” The middle-aged man stood up.
“Mine? Why?” Wang Teng asked in surprise.
“Take it as repayment for letting me return to this world,” the middle-aged man said calmly.
“Repayment?” Wang Teng was speechless. He didn’t know how to reply to him.
Seriously?
Was there such a good thing?
“Senior, I didn’t do anything…” Wang Teng found it unreal and wanted to decline.
This was a hot potato.
But, the other party didn’t give him a chance to finish his sentence.
“When it wasn’t given to you, you took it. Now that it’s being offered to you, you hesitate to take it.” The middle-aged man gave him an ambiguous smile.
“If this treasure is ownerless, I wouldn’t refuse it. But if it has an owner, I wouldn’t dare take it,” Wang Teng replied with an innocent smile.
“It’s ownerless now. I’ve erased the mark left by my race. You just need to leave your mark and you can become the new owner of this Hornless Ice Dragon Pearl.” The middle-aged man said and stopped speaking further. He calmly walked into the chaos. His pace wasn’t fast, but he left in an instant.
“Elder, may I know your name?” Wang Teng hurriedly stood up and shouted. He realized that he didn’t even have to chance to express his gratitude.
“Names hold no meaning for me anymore. Let’s part ways here. If fate allows, perhaps we may meet again,” the middle-aged man’s faint voice echoed.
A dimensional rift appeared in front of him. He stepped into it and disappeared.
Wang Teng watched the man’s fading figure and then looked at the Hornless Ice Dragon Pearl in his hand. He was in a daze.
What just happened?
The elder gave him this treasure just like this and didn’t even leave a name.
Why didn’t he want to leave his name after doing a good deed?
Wang Teng felt that this elder was a little strange. He seemed to be immersed in the past. There was constant nostalgia in his eyes.
Wang Teng didn’t dare to ask about this.
This was his private matter and he probably had no intention of sharing it.
In Wang Teng’s speculation, it must have been a rather embarrassing or even melodramatic story, one that he would prefer to bury deep in history.
As a powerful being, how could he reveal such things? It would be better to keep it thoroughly hidden in the past.
Wang Teng didn’t want to be the cat that got killed by curiosity.
What if the man took offense to his curiosity and kill him after telling his story?
Wang Teng shook his head and looked at the Hornless Ice Dragon Pearl in his hand. There was joy in his eyes.
What a rough journey!
This treasure almost left him.
Yet, after all the twists and turns, the pearl came back to him, and the elder gave him voluntarily. He didn’t have to worry anymore.
