I Am Overlord

Chapter 1636: Let's Fight To The End, Then

Through devouring a large amount of flesh and blood, Blood Spirit had formed a powerful body. However, the body still had a rather major flaw to it. It had too many impurities and had not reached perfection. Xiang Shaoyun's flame had been perfect for clearing the body of its filth and impurities, further perfecting and strengthening the body.

Blood Spirit had an incredible speed. Even prior to this, he was no slower than Xiang Shaoyun. Now, he was even faster. Before Xiang Shaoyun could react, Xiang Shaoyun's stomach was struck, and a powerful force rushed into his body and ravaged his organs. Blood Spirit did not stop at that. He unleashed a storm of domineering attacks on Xiang Shaoyun.

The attacks were rapid, not giving Xiang Shaoyun even the chance to react. Before long, he was badly bruised and battered. Just as Blood Spirit was about to end the beatdown by devouring Xiang Shaoyun, the Yin Yang Shield appeared around Xiang Shaoyun's body. Death energy formed the core of the defensive shield as it swept out toward Blood Spirit.

"Can this damnable energy even harm me?" said Blood Spirit as he resisted the blood energy with his baleful blood energy. While doing so, his punches continued raining down upon Xiang Shaoyun.

"Piss off!" Xiang Shaoyun roared as he resisted the pain and circled his palms. As yin and yang flowed, numerous palms shot out.

Tai Chi Yin Yang Palm!

A rebounding force appeared and redirected Blood Spirit's attack, utilizing Blood Spirit's own strength to blast him away. Xiang Shaoyun took a deep breath as he rapidly healed himself with the profundity of life. A bizarre radiance erupted from his eyes as he gazed at Blood Spirit. "No matter how strong you are, you're still a body of flesh and blood. So long as I can fully destroy you, you won't be able to return."

A thick layer of primal chaos flame appeared around Xiang Shaoyun as he assumed a stance that made it seem like he was about to attack. Blood Spirit had a cautious look on his face. He naturally feared the primal chaos flame. Previously, he had only been able to expel the flame due to Xiang Shaoyun's carelessness.

If Xiang Shaoyun had increased the intensity of the flame from the get-go, he wouldn't have been able to expel the flame so easily. As Blood Spirit braced for an attack, Xiang Shaoyun vanished right before his eyes. When he saw Xiang Shaoyun again, Xiang Shaoyun was farther away from him.

"Bastard, are you running?" said Blood Spirit furiously. He did not expect such trickery, and he hurriedly dashed toward Xiang Shaoyun like a phantom.

"Overlord Legion members, to me! Do not resist my will. I will bring all of you somewhere safe," said Xiang Shaoyun to the Overlord Legion members who had gathered near him.

There were fewer than 50 of them remaining. The others had either fled or been killed. One could say that they had suffered a high number of casualties from this battle. Those who had remained were either the ones closest to Xiang Shaoyun or the ones who had the most faith in him. They would obey him unconditionally.

Withdraw!

As Xiang Shaoyun's will swept toward them, he pulled all of them into his astral cosmos sea.

"Little White, why did you resist me?" asked Xiang Shaoyun.

"Boss, my brothers are still fighting. I can't abandon them!" said Little White as he pointed at the demonic beasts that were still fighting against the aliens.

"I have been neglectful. Let's fight to the end, then," said Xiang Shaoyun apologetically.

"Kid, if you continue running, I'm going to start devouring all the other humans!" threatened Blood Spirit as he unleashed countless tentacles toward Xiang Shaoyun. Some of the tentacles were poisonous, while some were emanating a viscous energy.

"Don't you know that these tricks are useless against me?" said Xiang Shaoyun as he slashed with the Divine Yin Yang Sword repeatedly, cutting one tentacle after another.

Blood Spirit did not say anything. Instead, he unleashed a different ability.

Illusory Soul Technique!

That was an illusory technique of the phantasma race, capable of affecting Xiang Shaoyun's soul directly. He aimed to put Xiang Shaoyun in a trance before killing Xiang Shaoyun. An empty look covered Xiang Shaoyun's face while Blood Spirit approached, tentacles spreading toward Xiang Shaoyun.

"Let's see how you'll run this time!" said Blood Spirit smugly.

"You're the one that needs running," Xiang Shaoyun suddenly recovered. Primal chaos flame erupted from his body as one fiery pillar after another dropped from the sky, trapping Blood Spirit in the middle. At the same time, the domineering primal chaos flame spiraled around him at a rapid speed.

"You're not affected by my illusion?" exclaimed Blood Spirit in shock.

He wanted to retreat, but the primal chaos flame around him was too terrifying. The only way he could escape safely was by breaking through the curtain of flame. With the profundity of primal chaos, Xiang Shaoyun had created a flame of ultimate destruction. He would not give Blood Spirit any chance to escape. The multicolored primal chaos flame burned so fiercely the space between the pillars turned into a vacuum. No living being dared to approach the pillars.

"Bastard, I'm the strongest in existence. Something like fire will not hurt me! Explode!" roared Blood Spirit as he formed a clone. The clone contained a part of his strength. It detonated itself, creating an opening in the curtain of flame which allowed Blood Spirit to escape.

Xiang Shaoyun focused on Blood Spirit with his divine dao eyes and attempted to give chase, but Blood Spirit unleashed a clump of terrifying baleful blood energy that interrupted his pursuit. Xiang Shaoyun did not think that Blood Spirit would take the defeat and flee so easily. The alien was definitely planning something else.

"You humans are truly not weak. My dead comrades, offer me your flesh and blood," said Blood Spirit as he started devouring the flesh and blood of all the dead aliens in the battleground.

His actions attracted the attention of the other human experts. To be precise, they had long noticed him. But because Xiang Shaoyun had been fighting the alien, they hadn't bothered to move against Blood Spirit. Only now did they realize just how terrifying Xiang Shaoyun's opponent was.

"Just what alien is that? He's actually devouring the flesh and blood of his own companions!"

"He was evolving before this, I think. He looks just like Lord Sheng Zhengyi now."

"That's an alien. Lord Sheng Zhengyi had died because of him. Everyone, we must prevent him from devouring even more flesh and blood."

"Stop wasting time. We have to stop him. If this continues, he will be unstoppable."

…

The remaining humans were all powerful combatants. The moment they sensed how scary Blood Spirit was, one of them charged toward him. Xiang Shaoyun could only shout in horror, "You're not his match! Don't approach him!"

"Xiang Shaoyun, don't think that we're all useless just because you have some strength. Let me slay this fellow," said Lu Shenchuan of the Celestial Alliance as he arrived before Blood Spirit.
