Jared suddenly recalled why the place seemed familiar upon arrival—it was the water dragon's aura that triggered a sense of recognition.
The dragon emitted a hint of draconic energy, although it hadn't completed its evolution, resulting in a minimal and impure essence. This explained Jared's vague sense of familiarity.
“Who gave you, human cultivators, the audacity to barge into my turf? Seeing as this is your first time, I'll let you go, so hurry up and leave. Else, I won't hold back,” the water dragon warned, addressing Jared and the others in human language.
Relieved, the group hastily turned to leave, eager to exit the area. However, Jared remained rooted in place, quietly observing the water dragon.
“Master, we better hurry up and leave. This water dragon is quite powerful,” Feenix urged, pulling at Jared to prompt his departure.
“You guys go ahead. I want to find out how this water dragon achieved its cultivation level.”
Jared suspected that the water dragon had tapped into celestial energy, evolving into a celestial beast.
The water dragon might have been a tiny snake in the beginning and had transformed through the absorption of celestial energy. It seems everything is possible with celestial energy!
Agitation flickered in Jared's eyes at the thought. If the water dragon had truly absorbed celestial energy, its beast core could be a valuable magical item.
Even the idea of killing the water dragon crossed Jared's mind.
Sensing the underlying murderous intent beneath Jared's agitation, Feenix urgently cautioned, “Master, don't stir a commotion. This water dragon will ascend soon. Even a sneeze from it can annihilate all of us.”
“Don't worry. I won't do anything stupid,” Jared reassured with an awkward smile, surprised that Feenix had discerned his intentions.
Resignation filled Feenix. She had no choice but to slowly leave the area.
Upon realizing that Jared didn't yield and detecting the hint of murderous intent in his eyes, the water dragon's eyes turned red with anger. “Insolent brat! You're thinking of slaying me and taking my beast core?”
