When the black pearl was thrown from the black wooden ship, Xu Qing sensed a trace of fluctuations of the anomalous substances of the Sea Corpse Race in the sky.
This allowed him to make a judgment that these three ships most likely belonged to the Sea Corpse Race.
Xu Qing didn't have any good impression of the Sea Corpse Race, and he had killed too many of their people.
What happened today was an undeserved calamity for him. Although the black pearl couldn't cause him any harm, it was actually very powerful.
It was comparable to the full-strength attack of a life fire cultivator!
The rune sealed inside was even more profound.
The scene he had seen earlier appeared in Xu Qing's mind. The rune only flashed for a moment but it actually allowed the black bead to teleport and appear on his magic ship.
That was why Xu Qing was unable to react in time.
"If the might of that pearl reaches two or even three fires… It is a treasure!"
