When he reached deeper into the lake, he was able to see a strange silver light flickering in the distance. The boy was curious as he swam towards it, his heart was filled with excitement and little apprehension but he kept his calm.
As he got closer to the silver light, he discovered that it was coming from a small plant that was growing near the bottom of the lake.
He used his [Heaven's Eyes] to confirm if this was the intoxicating plant behind the strange lake and laughing alligator.

[Name: Baby's Tears Longevity Plant]
[Type: Flora]
~ The Baby's Tears Longevity Plant: This beautiful plant is surrounded by a shimmering body of water that appears to be calm and still, but upon closer inspection, one can detect strange energy in its depths. This energy is the result of the plant's presence, which enhances the yin energy in the water and makes it intoxicating to anyone who drinks it.
This leads to fits of laughter as the yang energy is temporarily depleted, but the effects are temporary and harmless. Despite its whimsical nature, the Baby's Tears Longevity Plant is actually a true miracle. It produces fruit once a month that has the power to enhance longevity and keep those who consume it forever young.
Not only does the fruit enhance longevity, but it also helps to boost a person's beauty, keeping them looking youthful and vibrant for years to come. This combination of powers makes the Baby's Tears Longevity Plant's fruit a highly sought-after treasure by women seeking to live a long life without aging.

'Did not expect to find it easily, good that it's radiating with silver light or I would've had to spend a lot of time searching for this little imp in this large lake.'
The boy didn't require much effort to find the flora which was causing the lake and alligator to act this way in the absence of Sunlight.
Just as he went closer to the gleaming Baby's Tears Longevity Plant he halted advancing as his happiness was short-lived and realized that there was a massive alligator beast guarding the Baby's Tears Longevity Plant. The beast was sleeping, but Rio could sense that it was powerful and dangerous.
'This must be the strong entity Eve talked about.'
The boy used his [Heaven's Eyes] to examine the beast's status without getting closer.

'Another Lord Beast? Did I get cursed by Lucas' bad luck?'
Rio first thought the beast would be most at the king tier black stage but he was surprised to find another lord beast.
Its total physical power after getting boosted by the lord's aura was around 305 which was enough to crush him and Nyla even if they joined together to fight this beast.
"Eve, is it really worth taking this plant? isn't this too risky?" He asked the elven monarch beast who was watching him from her wonderous forest realm.
The boy didn't want to put Nyla's life in danger carelessly so he confirmed with her before making any move.
"The beast is intoxicated by the Baby's Tears Longevity Plant so it won't wake up unless the longevity plant is gone. You will have enough time to go out of the water if you use all your skills.
That Lioness of yours is stronger than this beast so don't worry about getting hurt. Worst case scenario, this lovely lady will save you." She comforted him as she was also interested in this plant.
Girls usually wanted to look prettier and never age, so this plant's benefit of boosting their youthful appearance and stopping the aging when they consumed the fruit was enticing, Eve didn't mind stepping up and offering her help to make sure of his safety.
Even if Rio was going to get this Baby's Tears Longevity Plant, it was still going to be kept in her forest wonderous realm so this was a win-win situation for her.
The boy asked, "Can't you dig it out from here?"
"You need to go a few meters closer, when it's in my possible range I will store it in my wonderous forest realm. and You don't have to ask." Her delighted voice sounded in his mind.
He circulated his mana as he was preparing to go towards it and then run away.
Rio swam further in the direction of the beast and the longevity plant, his speed was slower as he didn't want to go more than the distance she required to take it.
After traveling for fifteen meters, he saw a light enveloping it as the plant disappeared.
Without any hesitation, he turned around and swam toward the surface of the water.
Just as He was about to come out to the lake he felt a cold sensation enveloping his body.
Suddenly, the sleeping beast stirred, and opened its eyes, opening its jaws wide, letting out an imposing roar that echoed across the lake.
The beast had already sent his senses to catch the boy's location even before it made a move.
Helia and Nyla, who were busy with the laughing alligator's beast at the side of the lake, heard the terrifying howl as they both became cautious.
Earlier, The blonde-haired beauty didn't inform Nyla that Rio was missing as the lively girl was busy slaughtering the laughing alligators that were coming out of the lake.
Rio quickly came out of the water as he could feel the beast's murderous glare on his back and its imposing aura suppressing him.
