I Am Overlord

Chapter 1401: The Gathering of Three Saints

The two newcomers were none other than the master painter and calligrapher, Hua Ruren, and Madam Yu Huan. Both were eighth-stage Saints. Like Lei Wuqing, they had learned that Xiang Shaoyun was no longer considered human. However, they both knew that he had a god-grade weapon or even more god-grade treasures on him. Thus, they decided to chase after Xiang Shaoyun's trail to satisfy their greed. Both were top-tier Saints. If they worked together, they were confident Xiang Shaoyun would have no way of surviving.

Sensing the newcomers, Hu Detian roared, "Return to the clan and seal the mountain!"

With three powerful human Saints appearing at the same time, they had no choice but to hide so that they wouldn't be harmed by this conflict between humans. Hu Meihui pleaded for Hu Detian to help Xiang Shaoyun, but she was knocked unconscious by Hu Detian.

"Unless he can survive being hunted by the humans, don't even dream of having him become the fox race's son-in-law," said Hu Detian.

Things seemed to be becoming more and more dangerous for Xiang Shaoyun, but his strength was also increasing rapidly. A large amount of devilish energy converged in his devil pearl as his rune pulsed incessantly. Ruthlessness, bloodthirst, and all sorts of negative emotions erupted within him as his eyes turned scarlet.

Lei Wuqing's terrifying net of sword rays came after Xiang Shaoyun again and again, but Xiang Shaoyun managed to survive by releasing his Imperial Nether Domain to buy himself more time. In the domain, he could make use of the chains to smash apart all the incoming rays. But the situation did not last long, as the two newcomers had finally reached the battleground.

"Brother Wuqing, allow me to lend you a hand," said Hua Ruren as a massive ink brush appeared in his hand. With the brush, he jabbed at the empty space before him.

Like a master calligrapher finishing his final stroke in the air, he pointed at the air and instantly struck the Imperial Nether Domain. The domain nearly collapsed from that one jab. As for Madam Yu Huan, eight rings flew out of her arm and started striking the Imperial Nether Domain repeatedly, each ring carrying a terrifying might behind it.

Lei Wuqing remained silent and continued swinging his sword, unleashing a storm of sword rays that tore even the sky apart. The Imperial Nether Domain was sturdy and powerful, but it wouldn't last for long against the barrage of attacks from these top-tier Saints.

When cracks started appearing at the edge of the Imperial Nether Domain, Xiang Shaoyun finally completed his breakthrough. A powerful wave of devilish energy rippled out, instantly strengthening the domain and expanding its range. When the three Saints sensed the undulation in the air, they were overwhelmed with shock, and they hurriedly retreated far away.

At this time, Xiang Shaoyun withdrew his Imperial Nether Domain, revealing himself before their eyes. With the rune on his forehead constantly pulsing with a mesmerizing radiance, he looked incredibly charming. Having healed his wounds and increased his cultivation, he was completely capable of facing top-tier Saints with his devil cultivation.

Currently, Xiang Shaoyun was mounted atop a ghostrune. The ghostrune was none other than Gui Qi, who was now a Devil Saint. With the evolution of his bloodline, he looked incomparably extraordinary.

Having reached the fourth stage of the Devil Saint Realm, Gui Qi was much stronger than before. As he flapped his wings, a certain power rippled and surrounded the three Saints, attempting to confuse their minds. At the same time, a powerful soul attack shot toward Lei Wuqing.

The three Saints had powerful willpower, but they were not immune to Gui Qi's unique attack. Lei Wuqing was the only one of the three that remained unaffected. With his iron will, nothing could affect his mind. Furthermore, his saint soul was also powerful enough to resist Gui Qi's soul attack.

"Soul attack? Too weak," said Lei Wuqing with a cold snort. A blade formed in his saint soul's hand as his soul cut the incoming soul attack into pieces. At the same time, he charged toward Xiang Shaoyun.

He knew that Xiang Shaoyun could turn invisible. Thus, he aimed to defeat Xiang Shaoyun before that ability was used. Otherwise, he would have traveled this far for nothing.

Emotionless Sword, third stance, Severing All Relations!

Lei Wuqing's attack was merciless and powerful, seemingly capable of severing all relationships in existence. Nothing could stand in his emotionless path. historical

Xiang Shaoyun gazed at the emotionless attack in a detached manner, as though his dao of devils was the perfect match for the emotionless sword. He said, "Those without emotions are devils. You deserve death."

He then swung the Sky Measuring Ruler. The Sky Measuring Ruler was comparable to great saint-grade weapons. Although he wasn't used to it, it was still a decent weapon for him to test his new strength.

A boundlessly ruthless aura erupted from Xiang Shaoyun's body. The emotionless dao was akin to a child before an adult when met with the devil dao. As the devil pearl erupted with incomparably thick energy and the rune pulsed incessantly, the ruler attack was further strengthened, and it manifested a massive ruler phantom in the air. It was as though a bridge had manifested in the sky.

The Sky Measuring Ruler was a weapon Xiang Shaoyun had snatched from Uncle Lai. However, Uncle Lai seemed to have been unable to gain the ruler's acknowledgment. Not even the other Yu Clan members could fully master this weapon. Thus, in Xiang Shaoyun's hands, the ruler became even more powerful than before.

Wherever the ruler phantom reached, sword rays would shatter. Unfortunately, there were too many sword rays for the ruler to destroy. A decent number of sword rays still managed to reach Xiang Shaoyun.

With the gift of instincts fully activated, Xiang Shaoyun swung the ruler yet again, shattering all the sword rays that had managed to approach him. The collision had only forced him about 10 meters backward. He was finally able to stop Lei Wuqing's sword in a head-on collision.

His success boosted his confidence. As he licked his cold lips, Xiang Shaoyun sneered and said, "I shall enjoy this battle."

Mounted atop Gui Qi, he charged Lei Wuqing. The Yin Mother Sword appeared in his hand as he swung at Lei Wuqing. A destructive sword ray shot toward Lei Wuqing with a prowess that caused even the sky to change colors.

Lei Wuqing's face turned solemn. Instead of evading, he mustered all his strength and swung his sword as well, intending to test the strength of Xiang Shaoyun's sword. A single emotionless sword ray shot forth, containing a myriad of permutations and carrying a might far higher than all his previous attacks.
