I Am Overlord

Chapter 1597: God Realm Remnant Soul

The Four Night Saints were the four greatest Saints of the Dusk Dynasty. They had all fallen under Xiang Shaoyun's control, but they had maintained their strength. Xiang Shaoyun had even given them some treasures to further enhance their strength. They were now peak Great Saints, each of them strong enough to stand on his own. When joining hands, they could unleash even more strength.

The moment Ye Gui moved, the bandits panicked. The fatty could no longer remain calm as he led his group into a furious assault.

"Ye Long, Long Qiao, all of you go! Finish them off quickly," commanded Xiang Shaoyun.

With the Four Night Saints working together, the bandits were relegated to sandbags. Before long, all the bandits were killed.

Prior to his death, the fatty shouted, "Commander Gui Dao won't spare any of you! Just wait for your death!"

"Commander Gui Dao?" Liu Qingchen's expression changed when he heard that name.

"You know that guy?" asked Xiang Shaoyun.

"If I'm not wrong, he should be the renamed solitary bandit, Bloodhair Gui Dao," said Liu Qingchen as he told everyone what he knew about Bloodhair Gui Dao.

Bloodhair Gui Dao had risen in fame 100 years ago. At that time, he was still a regular Saint. In the past 100 years, he had used his dreadful combat strength to slowly rise into a solitary bandit feared by everyone. He had once offended a tier-8 organization, which had then deployed two pseudo-Gods and five Great Saints against him, but not one of them had survived their encounter with him.

From that battle, it was made known that the Bloodhair Gui Dao cultivated a terrifying demonic technique known as the Bloodbite Demonic Technique. That terrifying technique focused on increasing one's strength through consuming the blood essence of others. It allowed its users to grow rapidly and was extremely tricky to deal with.

"Interesting, but he has nothing to do with us. Of course, if we do stumble upon him, we'll just turn him into a bloody ghost for real," said Devouring Ghost with a sneer.

"That's right. Get ready. We'll be traveling in that direction. I can feel an intense battle happening there," said Xiang Shaoyun with a nod.

Whatever the location, Xiang Shaoyun would have no fear so long as his opponent wasn't a God. He had a firm conviction that he was unrivaled among his peers.

Before long, they crossed a desolate mountain range. Sure enough, there was an intense ongoing battle ahead of them. No fewer than 100 people were fighting against remnant souls.

"The remnant souls there are so scary," said Yu Caidie with a frown.

"However scary they are, they still won't be our match," said Devil Concubine.

"Something isn't right. Look, those people are attacking their own," Lu Xiaoqing cried out.

"Something is off. Be careful, everyone," said Tang Longfei.

Xiang Shaoyun's eyes lit up brightly as his gaze pierced through numerous obstacles to reach the battleground. He focused on a figure who looked almost material. The figure seemed to have sensed his gaze, and it looked his way. Its gaze was sharp and oppressive, emanating an incredibly baleful aura.

"God Realm remnant soul," Xiang Shaoyun exclaimed in shock.

This was an ancient battlefield where even Gods had died. Thus, it wasn't surprising that there were God Realm remnant souls here. Finally, they had encountered one.

"What? A God Realm remnant soul?" Everyone panicked.

They might be strong, but apart from Xiang Shaoyun, none of them could contend against God Realm remnant souls.

"It's the remnant soul of a human. Perhaps we can obtain his inheritance by defeating him," said Liu Qingchen, his battle intent soaring.

"That might be the case, but can't you see that all those people have fallen under its control?" said Devouring Ghost.

"Let's go. That fellow seems to have a decent god-grade weapon in his hand. The one to defeat him can claim ownership over that weapon," said Xiang Shaoyun.

He then led the group toward the distant battleground. By the time they arrived, the over 100 humans were already fully possessed by the remnant souls. They all charged at the newcomers.

"There is no saving these fellows. Don't hold back against them. As for the other remnant souls, let Gui Qi deal with them," said Xiang Shaoyun.

Gui Qi's soul attacks had already reached an extremely terrifying level. Waves of flawless soul power rippled out of him and struck the remnant souls, rapidly weakening the souls. He then devoured all of them to further enhance himself.

Xiang Shaoyun did not do anything. Instead, he focused on the God Realm remnant soul. He could feel just how extraordinary it was. During its life, it must have been a remarkable individual. Unfortunately, the remnant soul had been damaged too badly. Otherwise, it could have undergone rebirth to regain a new life.

"What a sturdy body. You might be the ideal body for me," said the remnant soul as it looked at Xiang Shaoyun.

"I don't think you are strong enough to take my body," said Xiang Shaoyun. "If you're willing to submit to me, I might be able to take you out of this place. I can even find you a new body. What do you think?"

"Haha, interesting. That's a good idea, but you're not strong enough to utter such words. Die," said the soul. It only had a wisp of its intelligence remaining. Most of its consciousness was filled with thoughts of slaughter. With a god-grade spear in hand, it attacked Xiang Shaoyun.

"Boss, let me deal with him," offered Liu Qingchen as he rushed over.

Indestructible Avatar!

Instantly, Liu Qingchen became taller, and gold energy converged around his body. A domineering golden fist was then unleashed at the remnant soul. Liu Qingchen was already a fifth-stage pseudo-God, granting him a terrifying combat strength. He could contend against even regular Gods.

Xiang Shaoyun did not interfere. Instead, he swept his gaze over the others and discovered that Min Rourou, Wu Zhijun, and a few of the weaker ones in the group were holding the others back. He was forced to release Money and have him protect them for him. After all, the two women were the partners of his brothers. He could allow them to temper themselves, but he wouldn't allow them to die.

While everyone was engaged in an intense combat against the remnant souls, Xiang Shaoyun discovered a group of aliens approaching them. The aliens were shrewd and did not charge over immediately. Rather, they concealed themselves, seemingly preparing to make a move once the two parties dealt enough damage to each other.

Naturally, Xiang Shaoyun wouldn't allow the aliens to prevail. He appeared before the aliens with a flicker and unleashed a domineering attack toward them. With his combat strength, few could resist him. Without fail, all the aliens were turned into contribution points. But as soon as he was done with the aliens, new trouble came knocking.

"Bastard, I finally found you! Today, you will die without a burial site!" a voice seething with rancor rang out.
