I Am Overlord

Chapter 1626: You Asked For It

The tentacled monster was also a God. His sticky tentacles bound Xiang Shaoyun tightly, rendering all his struggles pointless. The jadeflesh demon's weapon continued swinging toward Xiang Shaoyun's head in what would most definitely be a fatal attack. During that moment of crisis, a figure charged over. A golden rainbow swept over the jadeflesh demon and blasted him away.

"Have you asked for my permission before trying to kill my boss?" roared Liu Qingchen, who had arrived without anyone knowing it.

It had been a while since they had last met. Surprisingly, Liu Qingchen was now a ninth-stage pseudo-God, getting nearer and nearer to the Rebirth Realm.

"Nosy kid, you can die alongside him," said the jadeflesh demon as he attacked Liu Qingchen.

With the jadeflesh demon's strength, Liu Qingchen did not dare to be careless. He activated his Indestructible Avatar before engaging the jadeflesh demon in an intense fight.

Xiang Shaoyun was given a moment of respite. The primal chaos lightning erupted from his body, blasting the tentacles around him apart. At the same time, the Primal Inception Saber appeared before him. He did not even need to hold the saber in his hand. With his mind, he controlled the saber and sent it swinging at the tentacles repeatedly.

The tentacled monster was not weak. Viscous liquid was spat out of his mouth consistently, bogging down the saber and rendering it incapable of unleashing more destruction upon the tentacled monster.

Little did the tentacled monster know, the saber was merely a diversion. Xiang Shaoyun activated his Imperial Nether Domain once again and enveloped the tentacled monster. The tentacled monster was greatly alarmed. Without the jadeflesh demon's Jade Light Ocean, he would not be able to resist the Imperial Nether Domain. He hurriedly withdrew and fused his nine tentacles into a single spear. He pierced it toward the border of the domain.

"Break!" With his roar, the sharp spear advanced. If it struck, the domain might really be punctured.

Unfortunately for him, he would not be given the chance to land his strike. The nine-colored lotus had unknowingly appeared above him. As the nine-colored radiance shone upon him, a massive suppression fell onto him. Xiang Shaoyun was attacking with all his strength, determined to defeat the tentacled monster.

The tentacled monster was forced to change his trajectory, and he instead stabbed his spear at the lotus. The two forces collided, the impact causing the entire domain to shake.

"This is my domain. Whoever you are, bow!" roared Xiang Shaoyun as countless chains shot out and wound themselves around the tentacled monster.

The tentacled monster found himself completely bound. No matter how he struggled, he couldn't break free. The nine-colored lotus continued striking him, but he could only muster his defenses and brace himself against the collisions.

Xiang Shaoyun took the opportunity to raise his Primal Inception Saber and charge ahead.

One slash to shift the sun and moon!

Using all his strength, Xiang Shaoyun drew out his energy from his astral cosmos sea and gathered the primal chaos lightning onto his saber. The sun and moon seemed to swirl around his blade as he unleashed a seemingly unstoppable attack from his saber.

"It won't be that easy to kill me!" roared the tentacled monster in panic as his body started shrinking. He soon turned into something similar to a tiny spider, freeing himself from the chains and successfully avoiding the attack.

The change had come too suddenly, making it impossible for Xiang Shaoyun to relocate his target immediately.

During that split second where he lost his target, the tentacled monster charged at Xiang Shaoyun's soul. Moving at a rapid speed, he roared ferociously, "You'll die after I eat your soul up!"

One ought to admit that the tentacled monster was someone capable of making smart judgments in battle. He also knew very well the Imperial Nether Domain's weakness.

Yes, the Imperial Nether Domain could suppress and bound an opponent, but it also exposed one's soul before the opponent. The moment one's soul was injured, the domain would collapse by itself.

The tentacled monster knew that well. Thus, he had set his sights on Xiang Shaoyun's soul. By the time Xiang Shaoyun found his opponent, the tentacled monster had reached his soul. The nine tentacles shot out while the tentacled monster opened his mouth wide in preparation to feast on Xiang Shaoyun's soul.

Soul devouring!

The tentacled monster was confident that he could devour Xiang Shaoyun's soul. Just as he was feeling immensely pleased with himself, the soul who had been seated cross-legged suddenly opened its eyes. Two sinister beams shot out.

Life strip!

Instantly, the dreadful power struck the tentacled monster. He started aging rapidly while his strength dropped. All of a sudden, consuming the soul no longer seemed possible.

"What a terrifying pair of eyes. My life force is actually withering away!" exclaimed the tentacled monster in panic.

He hurriedly retreated without any hesitation. He finally realized how terrifying the soul was, but it was already too late for him to flee.

"You have an easy way out, but you just had to choose the hardest path to take. Let me send you to the afterlife," said Xiang Shaoyun as his soul grabbed for the tentacled monster.

The palm seemed to embrace the entire world. No matter where the tentacled monster went, he couldn't avoid it.

Nine Chained Strikes!

As the tentacled monster sensed his impending doom, he held nothing back and turned all nine of his tentacles into spears. He stabbed at the incoming palm madly, as though he was wielding nine divine weapons at once. Even under the Imperial Nether Domain's suppression, this outburst of his was powerful enough to slay Gods.

Unfortunately for him, that much strength was nothing before Xiang Shaoyun's soul. Powerful yin and yang energies erupted from the palm and obliterated the nine spears. The palm swatted down and reduced the tentacled monster into a mangled body.

Nether Dragon Soul Curse!

With the palm around the tentacled monster, Xiang Shaoyun's soul started chanting the Nether Dragon Soul Curse. One symbol after another floated toward the monster's soul. The tentacled monster did not have powerful soul defenses. He was completely helpless against the curse and was soon branded by the symbols, falling completely under Xiang Shaoyun's control.

"I didn't plan to use my soul, but you asked for it. Don't blame me," said Xiang Shaoyun with a sigh.

He then removed his Imperial Nether Domain. Liu Qingchen and the jadeflesh demon were still in an intense battle. Liu Qingchen was slightly disadvantaged, but he did not seem like he would be defeated anytime soon. One could see just how formidable he was.

"Qingchen, go help the others. Let me deal with him," said Xiang Shaoyun as he charged toward the jadeflesh demon.
