Chapter 179 - 110: Water-Repelling Pearl, No Such Thing as Perfect Happiness_4
It is said that the inner core of a skilled Water Demon and the eye of a Dragon Fish are essentially Water-Repelling Pearls.
As for the function of the Water-Repelling Pearl...
Ancient texts record that King Yu, in taming the She River, sought the Dragon Vein and placed the Water-Repelling Pearl, thereby the She River dared not flood, winding its way southeast.
Some say that there are different grades of the Water-Repelling Pearl; the weaker ones prevent drowning, while the stronger ones can even part the sea, allowing the bearer to walk as if on dry land amidst roaring waves.
Additionally, some Water-Repelling Pearls can enable a person to dive into the deep sea and enter the Dragon Palace...
Overall, it can be said that the Water-Repelling Pearl is a tool for avoiding and controlling water.
Curious, Xu Qing took the pearl to the riverside. A milky white halo emanated from it, causing the river water to part as if encountering an immovable boulder.
Jumping into the water, Xu Qing seemed like a chick enclosed within an invisible barrier three feet around, moving freely even at the riverbed.
Playing with the Water-Repelling Pearl, Xu Qing found it both useful and seemingly pointless.
Unafraid of water and skilled in the Water Technique, the pearl’s sole benefit was keeping his clothes dry after submerging.
