The Life-Origin Pearl!
Jiang Hai moved among the treasures, quickly fixing his attention on a jade box.
Inside the jade box, a cyan pearl the size of a fist shone brilliantly. It was translucent, with cyan radiance flowing within it like layers of clouds. Its gentle light rippled like water, making it difficult to look away.
"What a beautiful pearl!" Jianan exclaimed, unable to help herself. Her large eyes sparkled, and her long lashes fluttered, looking lovely.
Seeing where Jiang Hai's gaze had settled, Ye Gong could not help sighing. "You have an excellent eye. You actually managed to pick out the Life-Origin Pearl from all these treasures. You should know, there are quite a few similar items in this vault."
Jiang Hai reached out and picked up the pearl. Without waiting for Ye Gong to explain, he tightened his grip. A crack rang out, and streams of cyan light burst from the Life-Origin Pearl as a powerful life aura enveloped him.
The cyan streams coursed through his body, gathering little by little at his heart and blossoming with dazzling radiance.
Within that cyan light, Jiang Hai's heart, riddled with cracks and missing nearly half of itself, began beating powerfully. Ye Gong and Jianan could both see that crystal-clear heart, which had still been struggling to keep him alive.
Tempered by the blood qi soul core, Jiang Hai's heart had long since become crystalline, exquisitely translucent, like a red crystal.
The cyan light seeped into the cracks bit by bit. The fractures in his heart gradually healed, and the missing portion rapidly regenerated.
After an unknown amount of time, the cyan light gradually dispersed. Amid it, a whole, powerful, beating heart was faintly visible.
Jiang Hai opened his eyes. A sharp gleam became tangible, shooting three feet from his eyes
