Chapter 603 (1/2)

Looking at the stone the shaman held, Shao Xuan knew why he was here.

On the other side of the ocean, Shao Xuan noticed traces of crocodiles in the forest, he also found many stones left by the crocodiles. He was able to produce the water sun stone from it. The water sun stones needed to be placed under the sun to be functional, unlike the water moon stones that could glow for a long time.

The tribe brought over some stones from the other side but they soon realised the water moon stones were much more convenient and inexpensive. Hence, the water moon stones replaced the water sun stones.

The Drumming tribe people probably found out about it after noticing some Flaming Horn warriors using the water sun stones.

As Shao Xuan walked in, the Drumming tribe shaman shifted his focus from the stone in his hands to him. The shaman was agitated.

“I’m sorry for bothering you but Grand Elder Shao Xuan, how did you get this stone?”

Shao Xuan thought and replied, “These are from the other side of the sea.”

The shaman nodded, this he had already known. “Can you tell me more about the stones, Grand Elder?”

“Sure.”

Shao Xuan told the shaman about how he found the stones but vaguely mentioned how he made them, “I was just tinkering with the stones, I didn’t expect it to work.”

The shaman had curiosity written all over his face. He knew that there were crocodiles in many places so Shao Xuan was able to find the stones but how did a Flaming Horn tribesman like him make something like this from the stone?

Wasn’t this the Drumming tribe’s speciality?!

Shao Xuan didn’t spill any of his secrets. This was all he said.

Hence, after staring at the stone in his hands and thinking hard, he said, “Do you still have any more of these stones?” After a slight pause, he added, “The ones from young treasure fish?”

“Yes.”

“Can we borrow… cough.” The shaman suddenly remembered his tribe had a large debt that was hanging over their heads. How could he borrow even more now?

“Yes, please wait.”

Shao Xuan brought back some stones with him. When they first left to cross the sea, he took some stones with him. He didn’t find any problem with giving one to the shaman.

Upon closer inspection, the shaman felt that although they looked very similar, these stones were not from the crocodiles in their tribe. There was a sense of unfamiliarity to him. The tribe was very close to their crocodiles so they could feel their auras but this stone had none of that.

“This… can I borrow it for a few days?” asked the shaman carefully. He had to be polite in front of his creditor.

“No problem.” Shao Xuan didn’t mind much.

“Yes.”

“Without help from the fire seed? I mean with your own powers?”
