Ray Saint explained the Dragon Rearing Pond's benefits to Su Ping, emphasizing its acceleration of Water Element Pet Beasts' growth and provision of resources like the luxurious Water Dragon Pearl for the Spirit Land. Su Ping quickly procured the materials and descended underwater with Ray Saint, revealing transformed grounds laid with glowing Water Pattern Sands by the Sea Vortex King Ape, turning the Heart of Water into an ethereal golden pond. The site, cleared of wild beasts, stood ready for final setup to hasten the Rainbow Lucid Butterfly's development.

A lurking presence exists there, and despite the Rainbow Lucid Butterfly at the center drawing in fish, none of them dares to get close.

Indeed, it's the Rainbow Lucid Butterfly, positioned right beneath the Heart of Water.

Su Ping isn't ignoring it; this small butterfly simply stands out remarkably from ordinary pet beasts of its kind.

Typically, after emerging from their cocoons into butterflies, winged pet beasts crave soaring freely through the skies.

Yet this little one, following its brief initial flight, reverted to its innate 'homebody butterfly' tendencies.

Much like the initial Rainbow Coral Worm, it prefers staying cozily at home rather than roaming aimlessly.

After all, unlike other pet beasts, this one possesses a genuine 'home' of its own.

The Rainbow Coral it produces every day remains intact.

Plus, there's the even scarcer Rainbow Glaze.

Still, over recent days, Su Ping lacked the chance to feed it, so production of these treasures has been minimal.

"Alright, have you gathered all the resources? We must begin immediately. After completing the Dragon Rearing Pond, I need to catch up fast."

Ray Saint urged with clear impatience.

Evidently, missing out on the Heart of Dreams for several days had left him deeply unsettled.

Su Ping gave a nod.

Within this vast underwater realm, no plant-based resources grow naturally, and establishing the Dragon Rearing Pond—a unique water-element spirit land—proves far from simple.

Drop after drop of vibrant, colorful liquid poured forth from a petite jade vial.

Every single droplet brimmed with unfathomable, vast power.

This was... Dragon Blood!

Su Ping identified it instantly, recalling how Da Huang's evolution had utilized blood from Qin Erlong’s Wood Dragon.

However, this vial held blood not from the Wood Dragon, but unmistakably from a Water Dragon.

Not just a Dragon Ball, but Dragon Blood too?

What extraordinary benefits does the Dragon Rearing Pond spirit land offer to demand such components?

The Water Dragon’s blood swiftly blended into the Heart of Water's lake waters.

In the next instant, the myriad resources Su Ping had readied were unleashed from his Space Ring.

So abundant were they that a regular person would need to position them individually.

But for a Spirit Saint like Ray Saint, a mere narrowing of his eyes unleashed his overwhelming spiritual force, scattering and arranging the resources like stars across the heavens.

The process unfolded at such blinding speed that even Su Ping couldn't track it visually; within successive water bubbles, the items materialized precisely in their required spots.

Next, a fist-sized, azure-blue pearl emerged in his grasp.

This orb then shot upward over the Rainbow Coral Worm's nest, shielded by a water-element barrier.

At last, even inside the Heart of Water, Su Ping sensed an immense, baffling transformation surging through its watery depths.

Simultaneously, a brilliant blue-gold radiance erupted across the entire Heart of Water surface!

The Heart of Myriad Spirits' second spirit land, the Dragon Rearing Pond, stood fully formed!

Precisely as Su Ping collaborated with Ray Saint to establish this Dragon Rearing Pond.

At West Dragon Lake.

A silhouette perched upon the rippling waves.

Her long azure tresses merged seamlessly with the lake's expanse.

Slender arms extended before her chest, cradling in her palms a minuscule fire sprout that twisted about.

This tiny fire sprout struggled fiercely yet futilely against the overwhelming dominance of the figure.

Not even from her hands could it ignite itself fully or seize control of its fate.

Her delicate white fingers toyed with it lightly, the sprout swaying playfully within, akin to an elder fiddling with a treasured walnut.

Effortlessly mastered in her palm.

"You lot are truly elusive! No doubt about it—this is the soul fragment dispersed by that wretched bird, and just as that human expert noted, Flame Venerable's wounds run far deeper than the primary form; reborn through flames barely, full restoration demands ages."

"Hehe, it truly lives up to being that accursed bird's so-called Flame Venerable soul—cleverly hiding its Fire God will even when my main body seized it, evading detection by peers! Shame my primary self hoped to exploit this Fire God will to hook bigger prey."

Jiao Ji giggled softly to herself.

Obviously, her recent Dragon Nation excursion had infused her speech with strikingly modern human flair.

At the same time, she relished the dire straits of this ancient foe.

Yet shortly after, the lovely Jiao Ji—appearing as a human maiden—knitted her brows faintly, as some other notion crossed her mind; she cast an involuntary glance westward, tracing the Lingxi River from West Dragon Lake toward the unusual human youth she'd glimpsed days prior.

Then, a spectral azure-blue gleam flickered in Jiao Ji’s eyes; her fishtail flicked gently, propelling her form across West Dragon Lake slowly toward the Lingxi River:

"Let me uncover what secrets you truly hold, little human boy?"
