"Is this a seashell?" Evan raised an eyebrow when he saw the thing in front of him and asked Aqua to check it out.
Aqua quickly came in front of the one-meter-wide seashell and tried to open it. But to Evan's surprise, Aqua wasn't able to open the seashell even after using his full strength.
"What the hell is this seashell?" Evan muttered in a dumbfounded voice as he did not expect Aqua wouldn't be able to open the normal-looking seashell even though he was a mid-level Rank One Monster.
"This seashell is definitely not normal..." Evan said to himself and asked Aqua to put away the shell inside his storage ring and bring it to him. But to his shock, when Aqua tried to put the seashell inside the ring, he realized he couldn't put it inside the ring.
"Since he can't put the seashell inside the ring then does it mean it is alive?" Evan muttered in a baffled voice because he couldn't feel any life aura coming out from the seashell.
Aqua even tried to lift the seashell and bring it out without putting it inside the ring, but it was also useless because the seashell didn't even budge from the ground.
"Just what the hell is this thing..." Evan scratched the back of his head, not knowing what he should do. The cracks on Aqua's body were getting bigger and bigger, and it was obvious that he wouldn't be able to survive there for a long time even though Evan was constantly healing him.
Suddenly, a thought came into Evan's mind and he sent another message to Aqua.
"Pour your world essence inside the seashell and try to open it again."
Receiving Evan's message, Aqua quickly poured his world essence inside the seashell. When Aqua started to pour his world essence inside the shell, Evan noticed it was absorbing Aqua's world essence at a rapid speed.
As Aqua continued to pour his world essence into the shell, the shell started to shake, and after a few seconds...
Woosh!
The seashell suddenly opened, releasing a large amount of white steam that was instantly swept away by the chaotic world essence of the pond.
Evan didn't care about the steam that the seashell released as his eyes were fixed on a small blue-coloured water drop inside the shell, shining like a blue ruby.
"Is this the evolution essence drop they were talking about..." Evan muttered in a voice filled with excitement and immediately ordered Aqua to put away the drop.
Although he ordered Aqua to quickly put away the drop, he still remembered Voidscar saying that the evolution essence drop is very delicate and would be ruined if not handled properly. So, before putting away the drop inside the storage ring, he told Aqua to collect it inside a potion bottle that could preserve liquids.
Aqua followed Evan's order and collected the shining blue drop inside an empty potion bottle. Only after collecting the drop inside the bottle did he put it away inside the storage ring.
"All right Aqua, quickly come back."
Once Aqua collected the evolution essence drop, Evan immediately ordered him to return as his body was reaching its limit.
If Aqua stayed inside the pond any longer and accidentally died, Evan would have to send someone else deep inside the pond to collect his storage ring which is holding the evolution essence drop and the shining crystal that he found earlier.
Aqua was about to swim towards the surface of the pond when he received Evan's order, but before he could...
Rumble...
The bottom of the pond started to shake. Evan was still using shadow senses, so he immediately noticed the abnormality and a bad premonition filled his heart.
"Aqua, quickly run!" He shouted using shadow senses, and Aqua immediately started to swim towards him.
Rumble... Crack...
The rumbling at the bottom of the pond intensified, and cracks started to appear at the bottom. Through the cracks, a large amount of chaotic world essence came out, filling the bottom with muddy brown-coloured essence.
Amidst the chaos, two deep yellow eyes opened and...
Woosh!
A powerful aura swept outward, blowing away the chaotic world essence and revealing the figure of a nearly five-meter-
long starfish.
Through Aqua, Evan felt the aura of the starfish, and his face turned pale.
"Why is there a Rank Three monster in the third layer of the Tomb?" Evan cursed loudly and quickly created his shadow clone, sending it towards Aqua, who was swimming towards him. The aura of the Rank Three starfish was just too powerful, so other people inside the Essence Spring Pond obviously noticed it as well.
"Damn it, I could have still improved the rank of my core by a few percent, but there is no way I am going to stay here now..." Evan said loudly, looking at the people who were panicking without understanding what was happening.
Although they felt the powerful aura of the Rank Three monster, they were still confused because they couldn't sense anything inside the pond using their spiritual senses.
"Run away if you don't want to die. There is a Rank Three monster inside the pond, and it is coming towards us," Evan warned the panicking people and instantly left the Essence Spring pond.
When people heard Evan, their faces turned pale, as most of them knew they would definitely die in front of a Rank Three monster.
Wooooo!
Suddenly, they heard a strange sound, and the water of the essence spring pond started to ripple. At the same time, a powerful aura engulfed the surroundings, turning the faces of the people pale white.
Unlike the other people who panicked after feeling the aura of the Rank Three monster, Blaze and Voidscar were not afraid. However, the look on their faces was quite ugly as both of them knew what was going on.
"Someone took the evolution essence drop and awakened the guardian..." Voidscar said in a voice filled with anger and looked towards Evan because, in his eyes, he was the only one who could do something like this.
When Evan felt Voidscar's cold gaze on him, he looked at him and waved his hand with a smug smile on his face. At the same time, a silver light flashed around him and he disappeared from there.
Boom!
The moment Evan disappeared, the water of the pond was blasted away, and the Rank Three starfish appeared above its surface.
