Jade Pool Golden Crystal Beast

Deep in the remote mountains, hidden away from human habitation, lies a mysterious place— Blackwater Ravine.

Blackwater Ravine, as its name suggests, is a deep, bottomless pool of water.

The pool water was as black as ink, its surface still without a ripple, like a huge black mirror, concealing the sky and the surrounding scenery in its unfathomable embrace.

Beyond the pool lies a sheer cliff with a near-vertical drop of 90 degrees, like a natural barrier that isolates it from the hustle and bustle of the world.

The rocks on the cliff face are almost entirely dark black, with no large areas of vegetation covering them, leaving them nearly completely exposed.

These rocks are strangely shaped; some are sharp as swords, piercing the sky; others are round like spheres, stacked in layers.

Occasionally, one or two tenacious trees will grow out of the crevices of the cliff.

Their roots are firmly embedded in the rocks, and their branches, twisted yet powerful, stretch towards the sky, seemingly telling a story of the resilience of life.

In some hidden corners, strange and unusual plants even grow.

Their vibrant colors stand out against the black cliffs, exuding a mysterious aura and adding a unique vitality to the stark cliffs.

At this moment, a thousand meters below the surface of the pool, it is separated by a layer of grayish material.

Inside the dome was a huge cavern space. In the very center of the cavern was a huge, bed-like pit, and inside the pit lay a giant monster— the Jade Pool Golden Crystal Beast.

This Jade Pool Golden Crystal Beast is enormous, like a small hill.

Its body is covered with a layer of golden scales, each scale shimmering with dazzling light, as if inlaid with countless tiny gemstones.

The monster's head was broad and flat, with a pair of huge eyes that were tightly closed, and its eyelids were as thick as two boulders.

Below his eyes was a wide, gaping mouth with slightly upturned corners, revealing sharp fangs and exuding a chilling aura.

Its limbs are thick and powerful, and its claws are sharp as hooks, deeply embedded in the pit and the ground, as if it remains vigilant even in its sleep.

A thick, monstrous tail coiled around its body, its tip shimmering with golden light, as if it were ready to launch an attack at any moment.

The Jade Pool Golden Crystal Beast lay quietly in the cave, while about ten meters away from it, two young cubs slept peacefully with their necks intertwined.

Suddenly, the Jade Pool Golden Crystal Beast frowned sharply, its thick eyebrows resembling two black Giant Python intertwined.

Then, its eyes suddenly opened, as if an invisible force had instantly pried open its previously tightly closed eyelids. Golden light shot out from its large, bell-like eyes like lightning, illuminating the dim cavern.

Its limbs were taut, and its thick muscles bulged high, as if it were accumulating endless power.

With a deep, angry roar, its entire body rose from the ground, its four hooves off the ground, like a golden meteor, charging straight toward the gray protective shield.

The protective shield rippled under its impact.

The next moment, the Jade Pool Golden Crystal Beast passed through the protective barrier and shot straight up from the depths of the pool like an arrow, landing steadily on the ripples.

At the same time, a giant Lightning Thunder Roc slowly descended from the sky.

This Lightning Thunder Roc was tens of feet, and its feathers shimmered with a metallic luster.

Each swing was accompanied by crackling and thunderous sounds.

On its back stood two people, a horse, and a mouse.

Hua Qiang stood on the back of the Lightning Thunder Roc, his divine Spiritual Sense spreading out rapidly like an invisible net, carefully searching the steep mountain wall.

He had only one goal— the Jade Scale Fruit.

This Jade Scale Fruit is a key ingredient in refining the rare Breakthrough Pill Pills, and the purpose of this visit is to obtain it.

Otherwise, he would be disgusted to death by the White Dragon Horse.

He quickly located a spot.

There, two sturdy gnarled trees were rooted in the mountainside.

Although these two trees are not tall, they have unusually thick trunks, and their roots are like tough pythons, deeply embedded in the crevices of the mountain wall.

The tree leans, yet it grows tenaciously toward the sky, as if waging an unyielding struggle against this harsh environment.

Among the lush foliage, more than a dozen bright green berries hung.

The fruit's surface shimmered with a faint halo, as if carved from jade.

Hua Qiang immediately beamed with joy, his eyes filled with excitement and delight.

Although the fruit was not yet ripe, it was not a problem for him at all.

With the Life Divine Water and the Creation Divine Cauldron, even if he manages to break through to a higher realm, how could he possibly be stumped?

The identification is complete; this is the Jade Scale Fruit he was looking for.

"Master, Master, I see it! It's right there!"

White Dragon Horse was so excited he almost jumped for joy.

The Jade Pool Golden Crystal Beast stood on the water's surface, its lantern-sized eyes fixed intently on the two people and three beasts in the air, its gaze filled with vigilance.

What is the purpose of these two people and three demonic beasts coming here?

Could it be that they're after their precious child whom they've protected for so many years?

If that's the case...

Its aura gradually increased, and it let out a low roar from its throat, its golden scales trembling slightly.

A storm seemed imminent over the tranquil Blackwater Ravine.

"Young master, do you see that monster on the water? That's the guardian beast of the Jade Scale Fruit."

Hua Qiang nodded, his eyes gleaming.

With such a huge monster standing there, how could he not see it, he's not blind?

Peak Level 3, 90,000 Slaughter Points, it's too tempting.

"Little Thunder, get closer to those two Jade Scale Tree!"

"Master!"

"You bastard, how dare you lay a finger on my precious baby! Die!"

When the Jade Pool Golden Crystal Beast saw the Lightning Thunder Roc approaching the two fruit trees on the cliff, it immediately became anxious.

Oh my god, they're here to steal my baby!

With a burst of strength from their limbs, a giant wave, tens of meters high, surged toward Hua Qiang and his Hua Qiang, attempting to stop them from getting closer.

Then it leaped into the air, opened its large mouth, and spat out a water arrow, attacking the Lightning Thunder Roc.

Hua Qiang snorted coldly and threw a punch.

In the air, a giant fist appeared and slammed into the water arrow that the Jade Pool Golden Crystal Beast had spewed.

The water rocket was snapped in half by a group of hammers and then dissipated into the air.

The fist, though slightly less forceful, still carried immense power as it slammed into the head of the Jade Pool Golden Crystal Beast.

The Jade Pool Golden Crystal Beast's pupils contracted, then it raised its fangs and slammed one paw into the fist.

With a bang, the fist was shattered by its claw.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Hua Qiang flashed across space and appeared beside the two trees.

Then, with a wave of his hand, he uprooted the two trees and sent them into his sea of consciousness.

At the same time, he planted them next to the Life Divine Tree with his mind, and even watered each of them with a bucket of water.

Wow!

"You bastard, where did you hide my precious baby?"

"Spit it out right now, or I'll tear you to pieces!"
