I Am Overlord

Chapter 1562: Goldscale Dragon Fish

"There's actually a legendary goldscale dragon fish here? It even looks like it's going to complete its evolution into a dragon soon," Xiang Shaoyun exclaimed in surprise.

Dragon fish were extremely rare. As for a dragon fish that was infinitely close to becoming a dragon and only had one fin left, it was even rarer. Consuming this fish would allow one to forge an incredibly powerful physique. One's lifespan would also increase exponentially. Additionally, one would also be able to enter the Rebirth Realm without any bottlenecks. One could say that a goldscale dragon fish was basically a divine medicine.

At that realization, Xiang Shaoyun greatly coveted the fish. He was already a fifth-stage Heaven Battling Realm cultivator. After forming his pseudo-God Realm body and soul, this fish would definitely allow him to push both his body and soul into the God Realm. That was equivalent to a shortcut that would push his cultivation to a level he would need decades or even a hundred years to reach.

"Goldscale has lived for countless years. It has probably formed a dragon fish pearl in its body. All it needs to become a dragon is a suitable opportunity. You better not eat it," said the figure.

Xiang Shaoyun instantly withdrew his burning gaze and said, "I'll follow your wishes, senior."

He then focused on the pond. At that time, Liu Qingchen exclaimed, "Is this the legendary milky way spring?"

"Probably. It wouldn't have created such a miraculous scene otherwise," said Bing Busi with envy. He looked at Xiang Shaoyun and said, "Overlord, can I have a tiny bottle of this milky way spring water?"

Bing Busi was born with an innate flaw in his body. Not even Xiang Shaoyun's profundity of life could heal that flaw. However, the milky way spring water could. Thus, Bing Busi couldn't help but request some of the spring water.

"The milky way spring will only come into existence in mysterious spaces where the sky hangs upside down, allowing astral energy to slowly gather into a spring. It is indeed capable of making up for your flaws. Take it yourself," said Xiang Shaoyun with a nod.

The milky way spring was a top-tier god-grade spring, something even Gods would covet. It could greatly enhance one's God Realm energy, allowing one to further purify one's energy and improve one's attack. It could also help Great Saints and pseudo-Gods enter the Rebirth Realm. One could say that the existence of the milky way spring would enable more people to ascend into the God Realm.

Liu Qingchen also gathered some of the spring water unhesitatingly. He was already a peak Great Saint. With this spring water, he would be able to reach the Rebirth Realm faster and spend less time in the pseudo-God Realm. Or perhaps he could even skip the pseudo-God Realm entirely. But just as Bing Busi and Liu Qingchen were about to gather some of the spring water, the goldscale dragon fish leaped out, opened its mouth wide, and roared.

Roar!

A dragon's roar resounded, as though an ultimate dragon had soared into the sky. The overbearing roar rumbled through the square, catching both Bing Busi and Liu Qingchen by surprise and causing them to cough blood. The others also had their eardrums burst, and even Xiang Shaoyun felt his blood stir uncomfortably.

Xiang Shaoyun was the first to react. His profundity of life activated as he pacified his disorderly blood circulation before glancing at the dragon fish with a sharp gaze. A powerful force swept out as he said, "Your dragon's roar is decent, but that won't be enough to kill us. You better be obedient, and I'll spare your life out of respect for the senior."

"Villain, a villain is trying to steal my spring!" the goldscale dragon fish suddenly started cursing.

It then submerged back into the water in fear.

Xiang Shaoyun smiled before he looked at the figure and said, "Senior, look—"

"Deal with it yourself. You can do anything so long as you don't harm the fish," replied the figure indifferently.

The figure's main mission was to protect Despair until the bloodline inheritance was completed. Everything else did not matter.

Xiang Shaoyun gave it some thought before releasing Money. He said, "Money, go have a talk with that fish."

Money then shot out of Xiang Shaoyun's arm and dove into the pond.

The goldscale dragon fish was not afraid of Money, but it could smell a familiar scent on Money's body. Thus, it did not attack. Instead, it looked at Money cautiously and asked, "Are you here to bully me as well?"

"Follow my boss. He has enough draconic aura to help you complete your evolution," said Money.

"A-are you speaking the truth?" asked the goldscale dragon fish.

"Of course. If it wasn't for the fact that I have the bloodline of the celestial snakes in my body, I would have evolved into a dragon long ago," said Money.

Goldscale dragon fish was deeply attracted, but it did not dare to agree immediately. It had never met other life forms before, but after awakening its intelligence, its inherited memories told it that it should always be cautious toward other races.

When Xiang Shaoyun heard the conversation, he smiled and released one of the pure energy dragons in his body. He then asked, "Goldscale dragon fish, look. Is this what you need?"

The goldscale dragon fish's eyes lit up before it shot toward the energy dragon. It instantly reached Xiang Shaoyun, but Xiang Shaoyun moved away at an even faster speed, not allowing the dragon fish to devour the energy dragon.

"Give it to me, and I'll give you some spring water," said the goldscale dragon fish impatiently.

"Come with me, and it will be yours. You can even continue staying in the spring. I will only take a tiny bit of the spring water. What do you think?" asked Xiang Shaoyun.

"Erm..." the goldscale dragon fish started hesitating.

Xiang Shaoyun took another energy dragon out, showing off two energy dragons at the same time. The goldscale dragon fish immediately nodded repeatedly and said, "If you can give the draconic aura to me, I'll follow your command."

It had lived in the spring water for countless years, yet it hadn't been able to complete its evolution because it did not have enough draconic aura. The energy dragons in Xiang Shaoyun's hand were what it needed the most. It could probably complete its evolution after obtaining one of the energy dragons.

"No problem. You can have as much draconic aura as you want," said Xiang Shaoyun with a smile.

Apart from the energy dragons, he also had the corpse of a diabolic dragon devil. He extracted some pure dragon blood from the corpse, as he believed that the blood would also be very helpful for the goldscale dragon fish.

"Sure. Come take the spring water, then. But don't take too much of it. I still need to rely on the spring to nourish my body," the goldscale dragon fish finally compromised.

"Haha, this is yours," said Xiang Shaoyun as he flung an energy dragon over.

The goldscale dragon fish leaped out and swallowed the energy dragon. A powerful draconic aura spread within its body, causing it to cheer in joy, "Yummy!"

The figure couldn't help but shake its head. "This fellow truly can't resist any temptation."
