I Am Overlord - Chapter 1755: Killing Intent
Chapter 1755: Killing Intent
The one who had spoken was none other than Xiang Shaoyun. With so many young Gods volunteering to fight, he decided to stop stealing the show. He instead focused on the entirety of the battlefield. Thus, he naturally noticed his father’s battle with the silverhorn beast.
The moment the silverhorn fled, Xiang Shaoyun appeared behind the beast. The power of the cosmos formed in his palm as the profundity of primal chaos lightning erupted, triggering the primal chaos profundity in the silverhorn beast to worsen the alien’s injuries and erase more life force.
The silverhorn beast wailed repeatedly, but no matter how he wailed, he couldn’t expel the destructive profundity in his body. Once again, the silverhorn beast attacked with his silver horn, attempting to kill Xiang Shaoyun with one hit. However, Xiang Shaoyun was no Xiang Yangzhan. With his footwork, he evaded the attack and leaped onto the silverhorn beast. Then, he started smashing his fists into the beast.
The beast bled profusely from the punches and was completely helpless. It could only wail repeatedly. If this continued, it was only a matter of time before he was killed.
“I-I submit!” the silverhorn hurriedly surrendered when he sensed that he was about to die.
“Excellent. Hand over a strand of your soul,” said Xiang Shaoyun, satisfied.
The silverhorn beast knew that if he handed over a strand of his soul, he would be accepting the fate of being fully under their control. However, he had no other choice.
He released a strand of his soul essence, and Xiang Shaoyun immediately said to his father, “Father, accept this strand of soul, and he will be your mount from now on.”
By this time, Xiang Yangzhan had recovered considerably. He smiled and bound the soul strand and swallowed it into his body. If the silverhorn beast dared to disobey him, he would erase the soul strand, dealing massive damage to the silverhorn beast.
Xiang Shaoyun then went to his father and extracted the destructive power contained in the silver lightning from his father’s body, allowing his father to immediately make a full recovery. A shadow suddenly appeared beside Xiang Shaoyun and made a stab at him. The attacker had appeared noiselessly and was extremely difficult to detect. When Xiang Shaoyun and Xiang Yangzhan noticed him, his sword was already on its way to Xiang Shaoyun.
“Yun’er, watch out!” Xiang Yangzhan cried out in alarm.
However, Xiang Shaoyun needed no reminder. He immediately shifted away, causing the attacker to miss.
“I’ve been waiting quite a while for you,” said Xiang Shaoyun as the Imperial Nether Domain appeared, trapping the attacker in it.
The attacker was not an alien. Rather, he was the assassin from the darkshadow race that had tried to assassinate him in the past. This was the killer someone in the Guardians Guild had hired.
The assassin had not expected Xiang Shaoyun to react so quickly. He couldn’t escape the Imperial Nether Domain in time, so he immediately attacked with all his strength, trying to break free with force.
However, the nine-colored lotus descended upon him before he could fully launch his attack. His body was smashed to a pulp, leaving only his soul intact. If Xiang Shaoyun intended to kill him, not even his soul would survive.
“I-I’m Deputy Gongsun’s dark emissary. You can’t kill me!” said the assassin anxiously.
He had known that Xiang Shaoyun was strong, but he had still underestimated him. Even with his many years of assassination experience, he had still failed to kill Xiang Shaoyun even on a chaotic battlefield. Instead, he had gotten himself captured. Now, he had to focus on saving himself.
“Don’t worry. I won’t kill you,” said Xiang Shaoyun with a sneer before using the Nether Dragon Soul Curse on the assassin.
In the Imperial Nether Domain, Xiang Shaoyun was the absolute ruler. Those weaker than his soul would not be able to defeat him within it. Before long, the assassin was under his control, and he learned from the assassin that the assassin wasn’t a dark emissary. Rather, he was Qin Jiu’s guardian and a member of the darkshadow race. He was also the one who had sent the people to attack Xiang Shaoyun in the Divine Dominion City.
“Qin Jiu!” said Xiang Shaoyun with thick killing intent. At this point, Qin Jiu had entered his kill list.
Xiang Shaoyun released the assassin and sent the assassin back to Qin Jiu’s side. He planned to return Qin Jiu the favor and give him the joy of being assassinated.
Meanwhile, the battlefield turned extremely intense.
A young God from the Divine Fist Sect was swallowed whole and killed by an alien. A young God from the Northern Border had her soul harvested and killed. The number two young God from the Celestial Alliance had his entire body punched apart by an alien.
Only two hours had passed, yet more than ten young Gods had been killed by the aliens. All the humans wore unsightly expressions. If this continued, the strongest of the young Gods humanity had to offer would all perish.
At this time, Qin Jiu finally displayed his strength as a young guild master candidate. With a terrifying battle technique, he blasted Niu Meng apart. Of course, Niu Meng did not let Qin Jiu have an easy time either. Before he was blasted apart, he powerfully tackled Qin Jiu, greatly injuring Qin Jiu. Nevertheless, it was still a victory for humanity.
“Well done, Young Master Jiu!” All of Qin Jiu’s subordinates cried out in excitement.
Using a miraculous technique, Qin Jiu healed rapidly. However, he was still pale. A smile formed on his face as he said, “Finally, we managed to damage their confidence somewhat.”
At the same time, Gongsun Sanyang defeated the princess from the golden crow race. Three suns revolved around his body, making him look like the child of the sun. The three suns managed to suppress the golden crow princess, allowing him to showcase his impressive strength.
“Young Master Gongsun is unrivaled!” shouted those from Gongsun Sanyang’s group.
These two were the elites of the Guardians Guild, so if even they couldn’t defeat their opponents, the human army would suffer a great loss of morale. However, they were not the most extraordinary ones on the battlefield. Rather, it was Dugu Qiubai who had easily crushed his opponents.
Not only did Dugu Qiubai have the Primal Chaos Physique, but he also had impressive sword mastery. In the span of two hours, he had killed two of the strongest aliens present, showcasing the might of the Primal Chaos Physique.
On one of the alien warships stood ten aliens with powerful auras. They were all observing the battle with a look of disdain. One of them said, “I guess he’s decent for having such a physique as a human. Too bad this is as strong as he can get. Let me stop their momentum.”
