Chapter 973: The Mysterious Ball

The golden light dissipated from his fist as a faint smile appeared on his face. “Good idea. Tell me everything you know.”

The huge dragon was confused. Was this man a warrior of justice or was he a robber? However, regardless of what his intentions were, the huge dragon only had one choice.

Sigh, I’m still too weak…

It lamented in its heart as it dragged its bruised and battered body in a certain direction.

Before long, they had arrived beside a round ball.

This ball was bronze in color and made from some sort of unidentifiable material. It had a diameter of over a hundred meters, and it lay silently in a huge crater at the bottom of the ocean.

“I can feel the vast power of the ocean surging within the ball, but I can’t make use of the ball. I’ve tried to refine it with my blood as well as all sorts of physical and spell technique attacks, but I was still unable to uncover the secrets of this ball,” the huge dragon explained.

It was currently in the awkward situation where it had discovered a treasure but couldn’t do anything with it.

The tsunami from not long ago was actually a result of the dragon unleashing a powerful technique on the ball in an attempt to crack it open. However, the ball remained unscathed despite that.

“Heh, that proves that you don’t have an affinity with this ball.” An Lin’s eyes immediately lit up at the sight of the ball.

F*ck your affinity!

The dragon’s chest constricted. It was just about to say something, but the words got caught in its throat. In the end, it didn’t dare to utter a single word.

An Lin was simply too powerful for it to dare to say anything. The dragon had finally broken through to the Return to Void Stage after much difficulty, and it wanted to live a long life.

An Lin could feel that the power of the ocean contained within this ball was immortal-tool level. This was definitely an extraordinary object.

Tina made a lap around the ball. “This big ball is a natural creation of heaven and earth. This is most likely a priceless treasure that was born from all those phenomena that occurred on Earth.”

“Brother Dragon, I encountered this ball here, so if I figure out how to use it, that would prove that I have an affinity with it, right?” An Lin asked with a smile.

“What… What are you trying to say, Senior?” The dragon knew what he was getting at, but it still decided to ask out of sheer hope.

“What I’m saying is, this object has no owner, so if I can use it, then I’m its owner! Is that correct?” An Lin asked again.

The dragon dared not object. Even as tears flowed from its eyes, it replied, “You’re right, Senior! That is watertight logic!”

Whoever had the bigger fists was the daddy! It certainly couldn’t say no to its daddy!

An Lin nodded with satisfaction before descending beside the mysterious ball to investigate it.

The dragon stared at An Lin with a hint of anticipation in its heart. This mysterious ball was like an impregnable fortress, so there was a good chance that this human would be unable to take it for himself…

An Lin fiddled with the ball for a long while before staring at it with a befuddled look.

The dragon sneered internally. It had investigated this ball for several days without being able to make any progress. This ball couldn’t even be put into a spatial storage device, so it would be impossible for this man to crack it so easily.

An Lin thought for a moment before deciding to use his hack!

Divine Inspection Technique!

He stroked the ball as a white light flashed through his eyes, upon which a huge amount of information flooded into his mind.

[A Large Water Ball: This is a world-level immortal tool that was formed by the power of the ocean when Earth leveled up. After filling the entire ball with water, the user can unleash their power of water through this ball to unleash an extremely terrifying ramming attack or gravitational field.

[The methods for refining the object and filling it with water are as follows: Use the blood of a God of Creation to carve out the following formations, then use your own blood to refine it. After that, a white circle will appear on the ball, to which you will have to add water until the white circle disappears, which then indicates that it has been completely filled.]

An Lin: “…”

With such a difficult condition, no wonder the dragon wasn’t able to refine this ball, it required the blood of a God of Creation! What was it supposed to do? Ask Nuwa for a hand? Clearly not!

However, the process of filling it with water was quite simple. All he would have to do was to add water to the white circle that was supposed to appear on it…

The only thing that he didn’t understand was, what the hell was a world-level immortal tool? Were immortal tools split into world level and non-world level? In any case, this world-level concept sounded pretty bad*ss.

“It appears I do have an affinity with this ball…” A faint smile appeared on An Lin’s face. “Perhaps the vast majority of people wouldn’t be able to do anything to it, but this is perfect for me…”

He turned to Tina. “Little Na, can I borrow a drop of your blood?”

Gods of Creation were exceedingly rare across the entire continent, but he had one with him, and it was Tina!

“Sure.” Tina didn’t even ask why before she slit open her finger and released a droplet of blood, which floated toward An Lin.

The dragon’s pupils contracted as it stared at An Lin in confusion.

What was this man doing with that golden-haired woman’s blood? Shouldn’t he be using his own if he wanted to refine the object?

Immediately afterward, it was greeted by the sight of An Lin using the golden-haired woman’s blood to carve out an extremely complex formation onto the ball before dripping a drop of his golden blood essence onto the center of the formation.

“Done!” An Lin nodded in satisfaction.

Boom!

The ball suddenly tremored violently as the seawater within a radius of over fifty kilometers surged in response.

Feeling incredulous, the dragon’s eyes widened. “You refined it just like that? That’s absurd! How could it be so simple?!”

No one answered its question. An Lin patted the ball lightly, and a white circle began to appear, upon which huge amounts of seawater flowed into the ball in a swirling vortex.

The dragon was in complete despair upon seeing this.

An Lin had used this ball to prove that he had refined it.

The vortex spanned a huge area. To prevent itself from being sucked toward the ball, the dragon had to use a spell technique to stabilize its mountainous body.

However, the ball was like a bottomless pit, which was relentlessly engulfing seawater. One hundred tons, ten thousand tons, a million tons, a hundred million tons…

The dragon was completely dumbstruck.

Would this ball suck the entire Pacific Ocean dry?

After what seemed like an eternity, the bronze ball suddenly burped.

An Lin immediately made a few hand seals and cut off the flow of water before putting the ball away into his storage ring.

The dragon was extremely envious of An Lin. Not taking into account other matters, just the fact that this object was able to absorb so much water suggested that it was something extraordinary.

However, this knowledge was useless to it as it could only look on as the ball was taken by someone else…

“Haha, Brother Dragon, it looks like this was all meant to be.” Satisfied, An Lin patted the dragon’s dragon horn.

The dragon repressed its urge to flare up.

It really wanted to tell An Lin to piss off, but it still forced a smile onto its face. “Hehehe, congratulations, Senior, on obtaining this mysterious ball…”

“It was all thanks to your help, Brother Dragon.” An Lin turned to the dragon with a grateful expression. “By the way, this ball is not called the mysterious ball. Seeing as you found it first, I’ll disclose its name to you. It is called the world-level immortal tool, Large Water Ball!”

The dragon’s body trembled upon hearing this, and it almost threw up a huge mouthful of blood.

An Lin’s words were like a hammer blow to its heart. That was an immortal tool!

It had just let a legendary immortal tool slip by!

“I’ll be going now, Brother Dragon. Make sure you don’t endanger humans anymore.”

An Lin waved goodbye to the dragon, leaving just as quickly as he had come, as if he had never even appeared…
