A modest entrance to a humble abode, quite shabby indeed—Yes, this was the first impression that the two of them had of the Water Mansion before their eyes.
They stood outside the door for a moment, feeling silence and stillness, no sign of life or object, except for a faint pulse that was barely perceptible and harbored no ill intent.
After that, the two pushed open the gate and stepped inside. The space within wasn't all that large; in ancient times, it would have been a courtyard house with two entries.

This Treasure Bead was emitting fluctuations of Spiritual Power, forming a protective membrane that kept the intense pressure of the surrounding sea at bay, thus rendering the place as dry as land.
However, the state of the Treasure Bead was rather poor, flickering and dimming, clearly struggling to maintain its power.
