《I Am Overlord》Chapter 1279: Congratulations, You Got the Correct Answer
Advertisement
Each of the Dark Devourer Clan's four abilities was an extraordinary ability. The Devouring Transformation was no exception. The dark devourer devil had transformed in a completely illogical manner. Xiang Shaoyun was caught by complete surprise and got himself tangled up with his opponent. At the same time, a powerful devouring force erupted and started absorbing his devilish energy.
Any devil would immediately be useless upon losing their devilish energy. This was what made the dark devourer devils so scary. Unfortunately for this dark devourer devil, he had miscalculated. Apart from devilish energy, Xiang Shaoyun also had astral energy. The dark devourer devil was incapable of fully draining him of energy.
"Interesting," said Xiang Shaoyun. With a snort, the powers of lightning and flame erupted from his body.
Roar!
The dark devourer devil hurriedly retreated while wailing in pain. Just as the devil retreated, Xiang Shaoyun focused all his flame and lightning energies on the devil.
Lightning Calamity Fiery Star!
Not even a fifth-stage Devil Saint could easily survive this attack. The dark devourer devils greatly feared powers of extreme yang. With the relentless assault of fire and lightning, this dark devourer devil was killed.
The surrounding diabolic dragons were dumbstruck. The dark devourer devil that they viewed as an incredibly difficult opponent had actually been defeated so easily. Of course, they also concluded that the easy victory was only because of Xiang Shaoyun's grasp over powers that countered the dark devourer devils.
They did not view Xiang Shaoyun as a human, as they could see the Imperial Nether Clan's rune on his forehead, which wasn't something a human would have. Xiang Shaoyun was too busy to care about how the dragons were staring at him. A dark devourer devil mounted a sneak attack on him. The ambusher transformed into eight blood arrows and shot at him from different directions, arriving speedily. This devil was even stronger than his previous opponent.

Xiang Shaoyun reacted swiftly and brandished his chakram, manifesting nine wheels that blocked all the incoming arrows.
"You can't escape me!" The dark devourer devil snorted and fused all eight arrows before transforming the arrow into a clump of mist that engulfed Xiang Shaoyun, assaulting him with baleful blood poison and a terrifying devouring force.
Xiang Shaoyun felt a great pressure descend upon him. Apart from absorbing his energy, his opponent was also using poison. The combination had surpassed what his defenses could block.
This attacker was most definitely a late-stage Devil Saint. If Xiang Shaoyun couldn't resist the attack, he would be devoured into nothingness. He could no longer afford to hold anything back. He instantly erupted with strength, unleashing a boundless fist intent that threatened to punch even stars to nothingness.
Cosmos Dao Destroying Fist!
Space collapsed as the unstoppable fist shot forward. Not even a late-stage Devil Saint could hope to stop his punch. A series of explosions erupted as the nine-colored fist shot forth, eliminating everything in its path.
The dark devourer devil's attack collapsed, and the punch even badly mangled the devil's body. His eyes widened as he shouted, "Human!"
Even if he was a complete idiot, he could still identify the powers used by Xiang Shaoyun. This wasn't something devils could use. But so what? He was already badly injured. Would Xiang Shaoyun spare him?
Xiang Shaoyun smiled and said, "Congratulations, you got the correct answer. Too bad there's no reward for that."
As he said that, he flickered and appeared behind the devil before using his Lightning Calamity Fiery Star.
The devil hurriedly reacted and tried blocking the attack while escaping. But with Xiang Shaoyun's sole attention on him, how could he escape? Explosions of lightning and flame rumbled on and on, dying the area purple and red as he killed his opponent. This was the fourth dark devourer devil he killed. He only needed one more to complete his mission.

Unfortunately, there weren't many dark devourer devils around him. With the three clans working together, many had been killed. The three clans had also suffered some casualties, but they still held the complete upper hand.
Xiang Shaoyun scanned his surroundings and found a surviving dark devourer devil, a Great Devil Saint. The devil was currently engaged in an intense battle with an Undying Devil Clan expert. The undying devil wasn't strong enough to deal with a Great Devil Saint, but that was the only surviving dark devourer devil he found.
"I can't fail this mission. This fellow must die in my hands," muttered Xiang Shaoyun as he clenched his teeth and charged forth. He activated the Nether Yin Gate and roared, "Nether yin devils, come out!"
The instant he summoned the nether yin devils, the undying devil roared unhappily, "You from the Imperial Nether Clan, don't get involved in this prince's fight. Piss off!"
Xiang Shaoyun ignored the undying devil and sent over his two nether yin devils.
"Kid, you're courting death!" The undying devil was furious.
While he was distracted, his opponent used the Devouring Eruption ability and nearly killed him. However, the undying devils were known for their endurance. His wounds rapidly healed as he retreated to a safe distance, not giving his opponent a chance to attack him further.
The nether yin devils took this chance and bombarded the dark devourer devil with attacks. The dark devourer devil's body constantly warped as he tried reconstructing his body without getting killed.
The nether yin devils might be strong, but he had a higher cultivation level. He repeatedly attacked, releasing powerful poison at the two nether yin devils as he tried to kill them. The baleful energy around the nether yin devils could resist the baleful blood poison to some extent, but it was obvious the nether yin devils wouldn't last long.
Xiang Shaoyun gave up on them and pulled them back into the Nether Yin Gate. He had turned invisible, and nobody knew where he was. The dark devourer devil was aware of the Imperial Nether Clan's innate abilities and was on full alert.
Fortunately, the undying devil was greatly angered after being injured by the self-detonation. He attacked the dark devourer devil madly. With his terrifying body, the undying devil's relentless attack forced the dark devourer devil to retreat again and again.
The dark devourer devil did not want to continue this fight. After breaking free of the pursuit, he charged at some other enemies, trying to take as many of them down as he could. Xiang Shaoyun took this chance and mounted a sneak attack with all his strength.
