I Can Gain One Skill Point Per Second Chapter 624: Dragon Race as Battle Pets? Am I Just Here to Hand Over Experience?
Previously on I Can Gain One Skill Point Per Second...
A strange celestial event unfolded in the skies above battlefield G.
Dark lightning bolts ripped through the sky near the Serpent Head Divine Envoy, and from them emerged four formidable presences.
"Boss, we have arrived!""Is it finally our turn to show our might?"Ao Hun, unable to contain his eagerness, shifted into his humanoid form and emerged from the spatial rift. He swiftly moved to Lin Yi's side, his excited demeanor immediately catching the Serpent Head Divine Envoy by surprise.A dragon? It's from the Dragon Race!
It's clear they belong to the Dragon Race!
Considering Lin Yi's summoning method and Ao Hun's address, this Ancestral Dragon-level dragon was undeniably Lin Yi’s summoned beast! What kind of extraordinary being is Lin Yi, a mere human, to have earned the willing servitude of the exceptionally proud Dragon Race as his battle pet?!
The Serpent Head Divine Envoy's apprehension towards Ao Hun wasn't rooted in power, but in bloodline superiority.
A serpent toils for ten millennia to become a flood dragon, and another ten millennia to ascend to the dragon form; however, even as a dragon, it remains a low-tier Cyan Dragon.
Even for a Divine Envoy, the innate suppression emanating from a superior bloodline remains potent.
Yet, this was just the beginning of the revelation.
The tremors in the Envoy's pupils did not cease.
When Ao Zhan, Ao Lie, and Ao Shu made their appearance, the Serpent Head Divine Envoy truly grasped the alarming might and dominance of the young man standing before him.
"Boss, it’s rare for you to grant us permission to act. Lord Ao Shu has been making remarkable progress recently, even gaining some mastery over the Taichu Law. Given Lord Ao Shu’s exceptional talent, we anticipate their comprehension of the Taichu Law will soon reach the stage of unity..."
Ao Zhan was proudly recounting their recent accomplishments.
Abruptly, mid-sentence, he detected another powerful presence.
In the following moment, his attention was captured by the Serpent Head Divine Envoy, who was being effortlessly contained by Lin Yi’s clone.
"Boss, this... what is this?"
Though Ao Zhan likely recognized the Serpent Head Divine Envoy, he could hardly fathom that Lin Yi had recently become so terrifyingly potent, capable of subduing a Divine Envoy from a higher plane with such ease.
He had intended to boast about the rapid advancements of their Dragon God leader.
However, in comparison to Lin Yi's current strength, their own progress seemed insignificant.
At this juncture, Ao Zhan experienced a profound realization.
Dragons, while naturally endowed with the authority to command the elements, are not necessarily the apex species in this world.
It is no wonder that those who command the Three Realms and Six Paths hail from diverse planets or are spiritual beasts.
Once favored by fate, their capacity for power growth far surpasses that of the Dragon Race.
"I’m uncertain of this Divine Envoy’s exact rank, but they pale in comparison to Calamity. Today, I’ve brought Ao Shu along so she can devour it."
Despite Ao Shu bearing the title of Dragon God lord, she is not, in the truest sense, the Dragon God.
She possesses merely the descendant bloodline of the Dragon God, with the potential to evolve into the revered Dragon God bloodline.
A considerable journey lies ahead for Ao Shu to achieve true Dragon God status. Now that Lin Yi has captured the Divine Envoy, it presents an invaluable opportunity for her advancement.
Ao Shu harbored no strong feelings about consuming the Divine Envoy.
She was not excessively driven by a desire for power.
Her compliance with Lin Yi’s directives for her own growth stemmed from a desire to become an indispensable asset to Lin Yi, someone Lin Yi could rely upon.
Having finally found the one she longed for, Ao Shu shed all vestiges of her proud Dragon God bearing, wrapping herself around Lin Yi’s neck. Despite her considerable growth, she still behaved like a child, showering Lin Yi with affection.
"Brother Lin Yi, Ao Shu has been diligently improving her strength lately. Have you missed me?"
While the inheritor of the Dragon God bloodline may not equal a true Dragon God.
Once the Dragon God bloodline is present, and provided the maturation process is smooth, there is a high probability of attaining Dragon God status.
The Serpent Head Divine Envoy, having roamed the Ten Thousand Realms for millennia and witnessed countless marvels, had never before encountered a Dragon God acting so coquettishly towards a human.
Were it not for the immense pressure exerted by Lin Yi, the Serpent Head Divine Envoy might have erupted in astonishment: Lord Dragon God, are you truly serving as this human youth’s battle pet?
Xu Sheng and the others were already quite accustomed to Ao Shu’s affectionate displays.
Ever since the Dragon Race allied with Xia, the nation’s fortunes have dramatically improved. As for the deference shown by those three ancient dragons to Xia’s leadership, Xu Sheng and his kind paid little mind, so long as they lent their support to Xia’s cause.
With a hint of exasperation, Lin Yi gently stroked the small, golden-pink dragon before him and offered a smile.
"Naturally, I missed it. But Little Ao Shu, I've called you here not for pleasantries. Behold, the quadrupedal serpent immobilized by my clone! Its Source Power, Divine Power, and the Power of Law are all in disarray, rendering them dysfunctional. This presents a prime opportunity for you to devour it, which will be immensely beneficial."
Ao Shu never had any intention of disobeying Lin Yi's commands.
However, his lack of playful teasing left her feeling a tad disappointed.
Sensing Ao Shu's mood, Lin Yi swiftly added, "As long as you successfully refine it, I will permit you to accompany me in the upcoming battles on Elemental Star and Ancient Ape Star!"
The moment she heard she could fight alongside Brother Lin Yi, Ao Shu sprang into action.
Without even awaiting a reaction from the Serpent Head Divine Envoy, she had already completely consumed it.
"Boss, as a Divine Envoy, it should be brimming with Divine Power. Such resources should be your utmost priority," Ao Zhan commented.
From Ao Zhan's words, it was abundantly clear.
His demeanor towards Lin Yi had long since shifted from mere pretense for the Dragon Race's advancement to genuine concern for Lin Yi himself.
"While Lord Ao Shu's power enhancement is crucial, we believe that only when you become powerful will Lord Ao Shu's safety be truly guaranteed," they added.
Lin Yi let out a chuckle and responded:
"I wish that were the case, but will that fellow permit me to devour it?"
"Without the suppression of my bloodline, I wouldn't dare to recklessly absorb the power of a Divine Envoy. Allowing Ao Shu to enjoy it is undeniably the best course of action."
These words were indeed truthful. However, from Lin Yi's explanation, one could discern his sincere affection for Ao Shu.
Devouring a Divine Envoy was not as simple as it might have seemed.
Even with the Dragon God bloodline, the process of refining a Divine Envoy's capabilities proved exceptionally arduous.
Following Ao Shu's consumption of the Serpent Head Divine Envoy, she perceived that she had ingested something extraordinary. This prompted Ao Shu to manifest a faint pink barrier, encasing herself within it.
As the pink energy shield solidified, it morphed into a perfect, round egg.
Judging by her current state, Ao Shu was unlikely to emerge for another ten days to half a month.
"You can guarantee Ao Shu's safety, can't you?"
Witnessing their Dragon God Lord's transformation, Ao Zhan and the others instantly grasped that Ao Shu was on the verge of a significant breakthrough. Their emotions surged with overwhelming excitement, and they nodded their heads furiously, like agitated rattles.
