I Am Overlord

Chapter 1665: The Black Tortoise Appears

The sudden voice shocked Xiang Shaoyun and company. The voice was ethereal and majestic, covering the sky above the island with a thick aura of the great dao. From the fact that not even Xiang Shaoyun\'s soul clone could sense the source of the voice, it was clear how terrifying the owner of the voice was.

"Which lord is this, if I may ask?" Xiang Shaoyun asked.

No reply came from the voice. Instead, a terrifying power enveloped the area and pressed down on the dragon and the tiger.

The two roared in alarm as they leaped into the sky, attempting to resist the pressure.

"You are long dead. Don\'t even think of acting cocky before this old tortoise with a little bit of borrowed power," said the voice as an old figure appeared above the island. A palm descended from the sky, bringing with it an indescribable pressure that pressed the dragon and the tiger onto the ground.

Both the dragonfish and Little White regained their consciousness at the same time, and they were separated from the two skeleton frames. Fortunately, the two seemed fine. Evidently, the figure in the sky did not intend to harm them. Looking at the ancient figure, Xiang Shaoyun activated his divine dao eyes. An old tortoise was presented before him, and his heart thumped from a massive shock.

The old man merely glanced at Xiang Shaoyun to deactivate his divine dao eyes. "Kid, don\'t just stare at anything you want, or you might blind yourself."

Xiang Shaoyun did not even dare to meet that old man\'s eyes. He hurriedly withdrew his gaze and said in excitement, "A-are you a black tortoise, lord?"

There was a black tortoise in this sea region, a black tortoise who had once frozen Xiang Shaoyun, nearly killing him. He immediately understood why the Illusory Island had been moving around earlier—the so-called Illusory Island was actually the shell of a black tortoise. Everyone had merely been ignorant of that.

Xiang Shaoyun was able to easily reach the conclusion of the island\'s real identity thanks to his Light of Wisdom. That was because apart from demonic tortoises, no other demonic beasts could be found on the island. Additionally, the divine four divisions tree needed the nourishment of the demonic aura of the four great demonic races. Tiger bones, dragon bones, and a vermillion bird feather were present. As for the demonic aura of the black tortoise, it had naturally come from the island itself.

"It\'s you, human kid. You\'re actually able to come here. What a lucky person," said the black tortoise coldly.

From those words, Xiang Shaoyun was sure that the black tortoise from back then was the same one as this old man. It turned out that he had once come incredibly close to the Illusory Island but had merely been unaware of it.

"Senior, we do not mean to disturb your rest. If we had known this was your place, we wouldn\'t have dared to come," said Xiang Shaoyun with a dry laugh.

The black tortoise was way too scary. If he wanted to destroy them, he could probably accomplish it with a mere wave of his hand. None of them had any chance against him.

The black tortoise ignored Xiang Shaoyun. Rather, he looked at the dragonfish and Little White, who were in the midst of an evolution, and muttered, "Well, at least those two get to pass on their inheritances."

He did not stop the dragonfish and Little White from absorbing the two skeleton frames. It seemed like he was fulfilling a certain ancient promise. Xiang Shaoyun did not dare to say anything as he was afraid that he would anger the black tortoise by a wrong choice of word.

At this time, the black tortoise\'s gaze landed on Weili Yana. A look of pleasant surprise covered his face as he said, "Little girl, come here."

Weili Yana was then separated from Xiang Shaoyun\'s hands and started hovering toward the black tortoise.

"Overlord, save me!" Weili Yana cried out as she paled from fright.

"Lord black tortoise, she is merely a child," shouted Xiang Shaoyun with his fists clenched tight.

"Don\'t worry. I won\'t take her life," said the black tortoise.

Sure enough, the black tortoise did not harm Weili Yana. He wrapped a layer of incorporeal energy around her, instantly pushing her potential out of her body. Meanwhile, her discerning heart started emanating an indescribable power. That was a flawless heart, a heart that innately contained a certain type of divine power that countless people yearned for.

"After a million years, I finally saw another discerning heart!" lamented the black tortoise.

Xiang Shaoyun did not know why the black tortoise became so emotional, but he did not dare to do anything. Of course, if the black tortoise really did harm Weili Yana, he would have no choice but to fight with his life on the line.

"Come, I\'ll take you to the seven-colored spring. After consuming the spring water, you will be able to form a seven-point discerning heart," said the black tortoise as he carried Weili Yana and started moving in a certain direction.

The black tortoise vanished before Xiang Shaoyun could even see anything.

After glancing at the dragonfish and Little White, he said to Money, "Money, keep watch over them. I\'ll go look for Weili Yana."

He then rushed away. Weili Yana had told him the location of the seven-colored fantastical spring previously. The black tortoise was most definitely heading that way. At the same time, he could sense the divine discerning tree within his astral cosmos sea stirring slightly. It seemed to be transmitting a message to him, making its desire for the seven-colored fantastical spring clear.

"Since you\'re the divine discerning tree, you require the seven-colored fantastical spring to advance as well?" Xiang Shaoyun asked.

The divine discerning tree seemed to be sentient as it replied, "Yes. Only with the seven-colored fantastical spring will I be able to complete the most important phase of my growth. I will be able to grow rapidly, and that will be greatly beneficial for you as well."

"I\'ll try my best to get you some," replied Xiang Shaoyun.

The divine discerning tree was very important. The seven-colored fantastical spring could grant one the seven-point discerning heart, but with the same spring, the divine discerning tree would be able to bear divine discerning fruits that would grant an ordinary person a Seven-point Discerning Physique.

If others knew that Xiang Shaoyun had one such divine tree in possession yet he hadn\'t refined and absorbed the tree, they would have thought that he had gone mad. That was because absorbing the divine discerning tree would grant one the strongest physique that would most definitely grant one unrivaled strength.

However, Xiang Shaoyun had combined nine stars to form his Primal Inception Physique. Would he still need the Seven-point Discerning Physique? Not at all. In any case, the divine discerning tree was able to constantly help his astral cosmos sea grow, granting his astral cosmos sea more and more space while filling it with more and more life force. A day would come when his astral cosmos sea would become something similar to the dominion they resided in—an actual planet.

That was what Xiang Shaoyun hoped to happen. With his astral cosmos sea, perhaps he would be able to do something when all humanity faced a great catastrophe in the future.

Before long, Xiang Shaoyun located the seven-colored fantastical spring. The spring existed in the form of a rainbow and flowed with seven colors that presented an incredibly beautiful sight.

At this time, Weili Yana was soaking in the seven-colored fantastical spring. Her heart was shining brightly, and strands of divine light enveloped her entire body, making her look holy and majestic.

"What a mystical sight," exclaimed Xiang Shaoyun.

That was true—the seven-colored fantastical spring actually existed in the form of a flowing rainbow. In fact, someone less knowledgeable would probably assume that it was just a regular rainbow.

"This girl shall stay here with me," demanded the black tortoise with a tone that would accept no refusal.

"She\'s my disciple," said Xiang Shaoyun firmly.

"She\'s not suited to be your disciple. I have already picked a master for her," said the black tortoise.
