Chapter 1089: Chapter 1075: Appetizer
The catfish flood dragon before us might have the most inferior and mixed bloodline among all flood dragons, but despite that, it’s still a flood dragon.
Its body is covered with scale armor, which is genuine dragon scales. Especially on the dragon scales, there are traces of incomplete Dao Patterns.
As long as there are Dao Patterns, even if they’re incomplete, whether it’s a genuine dragon scale or just a piece of stone, it immediately turns into a treasure.
The strength of these catfish flood dragon scales was witnessed by everyone just now. It took Tower Chief Ou of the Stars Tower a split second to cleave more than ten strikes at the same spot to finally break the dragon scale.
Even the strike from Jie Tianhe’s Black Dragon Whip could be withstood by it.
Of course, this doesn’t mean Ou Tu’s combat power is far inferior to Jie Tianhe’s.
Mainly, Ou Tu’s combat power is significantly affected by the deep-sea water pressure, whereas the effect on Jie Tianhe is minimal, not too different from the land.
This is only the pure defensive capability of the dragon scales. If refined by a skillful artifact refining grandmaster, the defense might not just increase tenfold, but at least one or two times without issue.
Besides the catfish flood dragon scales, its blood is also extremely precious. This is true flood dragon blood, which can be used in spiritual medicine and body refinement, a necessity for many major family forces to nurture outstanding elite descendants from a young age.
The flood dragon’s bones are even more excellent materials for artifact refining; its tendons and the broken dragon whiskers are equally valuable treasures.
Of course, the most precious are still the catfish flood dragon scales and the demon core.
“In the battle just now, all of you participated, but the credit varies. Based on my observations, regarding the slaying of the catfish flood dragon, the Sea Suppression Great Saint made the greatest contribution and deserves thirty percent of the spoils!” said the Shuili Dan King abruptly.
“Thirty percent?”
At these words, Ou Tu’s expression first changed. Coming from a business background in the Stars Tower, he is most sensitive to profits and instinctively felt that Ye Zhen receiving thirty percent was too much.
Just as Ou Tu was about to object, Shuili Dan King’s gaze, which contained a hint of warning, shot straight at Ou Tu.
Known as Fox Star in the Stars Tower, Ou Tu, one of the old foxes, quickly understood Shuili Dan King’s intention.
While Ye Zhen indeed made significant contributions by luring and inciting the flood dragon, the reward shouldn’t be a solo thirty percent share. It was more a compensation to Ye Zhen and a warning to Ou Tu.
Understanding this was enough, so Ou Tu did not protest.
Even though the catfish flood dragon is a treasure trove with immense value, it wasn’t worth clashing with Shuili Dan King.
Immediately, Ou Tu nodded in agreement, acknowledging Shuili Dan King’s distribution.
“In this battle, the Sea-Breaking Great Saint worked tremendously and will uniquely enjoy twenty percent of the spoils. Alliance Leader Jie deserves fifteen percent for effectively striking. Lord Yang, Black Island Lord, and Green Robe Dragon King each shall enjoy ten percent.”
Shuili Dan King’s gaze then turned to Leng Kang, “Young Palace Master Leng and Tower Chief Ou both will share five percent.”
No reasons given or further discussion; assigning just five percent to these two made Shuili Dan King’s stance unmistakable.
Hearing this, the corner of Ou Tu’s mouth twitched a few times. It pained him, but he could accept it.
But the pain in Leng Kang’s heart was beyond words.
By rights, he was a main force in slaying the flood dragon; even if not entitled to thirty percent, he could claim twenty.
The spoils from this flood dragon were worth at least four hundred thousand high-grade Spirit Crystals—an invaluable gain for him now.
But now, he lost them in thin air, forced to share five percent with Ou Tu.
The heartache was beyond words.
Even more frustrating was the unreasoned compliance.
With Ou Tu, a tower chief of the Stars Tower, already nodding, what else could he do?
At that moment, Leng Kang felt extremely unfortunate that in this deep-sea venture, he didn’t profit, only landing himself in trouble.
“Everyone, having dealt with materials for years, I’ll be responsible for handling this flood dragon carcass!”
With that, using Spiritual Power to part the waters, Shuili Dan King swiftly began dissecting the catfish flood dragon’s body.
“Old Fourth, tell me, how did you avoid Leng Kang’s Water Splitting Stinger?” Taking advantage of the moment when Shuili Dan King was dismembering materials, the Sea-Breaking Great Saint finally couldn’t help but inquire of Ye Zhen.
This was something he was extremely curious about.
Upon hearing this, Ye Zhen chuckled, “Third Brother, did you forget the gift you gave me?”
“Gift? You mean the Dragon Turtle Shell?” Sea-Breaking Great Saint looked bewildered.
“That’s right, it’s that. In that critical moment, I only had time to bring it in front of me! The defensive capabilities of the Dragon Turtle Shell are really incredible.
A mere white mark under the assault of the Low Grade Soul Artifact level Water Splitting Stinger,” Ye Zhen said with admiration on his face.
Actually, at that life-and-death moment, Ye Zhen had another option, which was to activate the Red Moon Shield on the Red Moon Soul Ring. However, compared to the Dragon Turtle Shell, the Red Moon Escape Shield had a shorter activation time and was single-use, taking nine days to recover after use.
So, despite the short time, it was enough for Ye Zhen to bring out the Dragon Turtle Shell to save his life.
However, the terrifying defensive capabilities of the Dragon Turtle Shell made Ye Zhen feel that if he had the time and ability in the future, he should quickly refine the Dragon Turtle Shell into an artifact to fully display its defensive potential.
“Hey, as long as what we gave can preserve life and be useful, that’s good!” Sea-Breaking Great Saint laughed.
When an Alchemist is refining pills, the materials they can use are vast. The blood, flesh, tendons, and bones of Demon Beasts are also a type of Spiritual Medicine. Hence, Shuili Dan King was particularly quick in processing the Catfish Flood Dragon’s corpse.
It only took him an hour to finish.
During this time, Jie Tianhe released the Dragon Soul Suppression, intimidating the Demon Beasts drawn by the scent of blood.
In the end, Shuili Dan King extracted a total of fifty thousand jin of Flood Dragon Essence Blood, ten thousand meters of Dragon Sinew, over a thousand Dragon Bones, and more than forty-five thousand Dragon Scales, along with a Demon Core the size of a human head.
When Shuili Dan King reported the figure of more than forty-five thousand Dragon Scales, everyone’s eyes widened.
These were Dragon Scales with Dao Patterns, even without refining, piling up dozens of Dragon Scales together provided astonishing defensive strength. With over a thousand Dragon Scales refined, one could definitely create an extremely strong Dragon Scale Shield, or even Dragon Scale Armor without any trouble.
Upon hearing this number, Leng Kang nearly regretted it to the point of frustration. The Dragon Scale Shield or even Dragon Scale Battle Armor refined from Dragon Scales with incomplete Dao Patterns was something he greatly treasured and extremely useful to him.
If he actually had two such pieces of equipment, with Leng Kang’s combat power, he could confront Dao Realm experts head-on without much trouble.
However, at this moment, aside from regretting to the point of frustration, Leng Kang had no other solution.
Of course, Ou Tu’s face was also very unpleasant.
If he could acquire a tenth or two more of the Dragon Scales, the Ou Family branch of the Stars Tower could definitely produce around three Establishment King experts capable of contending with Dao Realm experts.
But at this point, it was too late for regrets.
In the end, Ye Zhen alone received over thirteen thousand Dragon Scales, fifteen thousand jin of Flood Dragon Essence Blood, three thousand meters of Dragon Sinew, and over three hundred Dragon Bones.
The Sea-Breaking Great Saint also gained a substantial amount, while the most unfortunate were Leng Kang and Ou Tu. Each of them received only about twelve hundred Dragon Scales.
Finding a skilled Grandmaster Artifact Refiner, they could barely refine a Dragon Scale Shield, and if the Artifact Refiner’s skills were mediocre, they would be quite frustrated.
The last Catfish Flood Dragon Pill went to Shuili Dan King. Such a thing wasn’t easy to split, so Shuili Dan King promised that once back on Shuili Island, he would buy this Catfish Flood Dragon Pill at the market price, and distribute Spirit Crystals to everyone according to the current distribution ratio.
After splitting up this Catfish Flood Dragon, when Shuili Dan King’s gaze turned to the brilliant green light under the Flood Dragon just now, everyone’s attention tightened.
The real opportunity was coming.
Compared to that brilliant green light, the entire body of the Flood Dragon only served as an appetizer.
“Everyone, let’s go together to see what kind of treasure is emitting this brilliant light!”
In fact, while waiting just now, everyone’s gaze occasionally wandered over the brilliant green light not far behind, filled with curiosity.
However, Shuili Dan King’s prestige was so high that no one dared to risk offending him by peeking ahead.
Now that Shuili Dan King had spoken, they immediately rushed towards the source of the brilliant light.
As they gathered nearby, everyone was instantly stunned! (To be continued. If you like this work, please go to to vote for recommendation and monthly tickets. Your support is my greatest motivation. Mobile users please read at .)
