I Am Overlord

Chapter 872: Severing Mountains and Rivers

Chapter 872: Severing Mountains and Rivers


Han Chenfei, who had been worried over Xiang Shaoyun, widened her eyes in shock at what she saw. Her mouth was wide agape, a look of absolute disbelief hanging on her face. Although she was confident Xiang Shaoyun would be an individual at the top of the Dragon Phoenix List in the future, she had never believed that he was already at that level. The valiant combat prowess Xiang Shaoyun was displaying felt unreal to her.


Apart from her, Ouyang Chuanqi, Yu Ziyang, Xiao Xie, Long s.h.i.+, and the others were also overwhelmed with shock. They were all elites among elites with endless potential. But if they were being honest, they definitely couldn"t battle Zhan Wushuang when they were two stages lower than him, and that was precisely what Xiang Shaoyun was doing. None of them had any confidence to face Zhan Wushuang without the same cultivation level.


Furthermore, Xiang Shaoyun was 10 years younger than Zhan Wushuang. If he was given 10 more years to cultivate, what would happen? They did not even dare to imagine how strong he would be.


A smile formed on Baili Yixiao"s face as he said, "Truly worthy of being the owner of a top-grade physique."


When the Sword Society members heard Baili Yixiao"s praise, they all looked at Xiang Shaoyun with envy. One ought to know that although their society master looked amiable and approachable all the time, he rarely praised anyone. It was an honor for Xiang Shaoyun to be able to win his praise.


On the battlefield, Xiang Shaoyun made use of his speed to approach Zhan Wushuang, intending to deal a finis.h.i.+ng blow. However, a terrifying burst of power erupted from Zhan Wushuang"s body and blocked the slash with layers of gold radiance.


Indestructible Avatar!


That was a high-grade battle technique, Zhan Wushuang"s strongest defensive technique. Seeing that his attack had failed to hit, Xiang Shaoyun wanted to pull back. But how would Zhan Wushuang allow him to move in and out as he wished? A punch shot out from an angle Xiang Shaoyun had not expected, aiming for his lower rib.


Zhan Wushuang"s fist was incredibly domineering. It looked like a completely ordinary punch, yet the fist intent it exuded seemed to be everywhere. Xiang Shaoyun failed to dodge the attack and was blasted away.


Ignoring the lightning tribulation, Zhan Wushuang pushed on and roared, "You dare to challenge me just by borrowing the power of some lightning tribulation? Your audacity!"


He arrived before Xiang Shaoyun and sent a punch toward Xiang Shaoyun"s head, evidently trying to kill his audacious opponent then and there. Xiang Shaoyun had suffered a rather serious injury from the previous punch. The fist intent was way too scary as it had actually badly damaged his internal organs.


Phantom s.h.i.+ft!


The moment the second punch came, Xiang Shaoyun unhesitatingly used the secret technique he had learned from the Holy Hall, instantly moving away from the attack. It caught Zhan Wushuang by surprise, and Xiang Shaoyun then instantly appeared at his flank, his saber las.h.i.+ng out again.


Nine Overlord Skyslaying Saber Technique, fifth stance, Severing Mountains and Rivers!


Xiang Shaoyun pushed his saber intent to its limit and finally reached the second stage. It might look like he was gripping his saber in hand, but in truth, he wasn"t holding the saber. His hand and the saber were only connected through an energy connection, allowing him to enter the human saber unity state and the saber steering phase.


As he used the fifth stance, the lightning in the sky grew even more berserk. It filled the sky as lightning bolts as thick as buckets poured down on them. The saber energy cleaved forward with a might capable of splitting mountains and rivers. It was as though the very world was shaking at the might of his slash.


This was an attack totally capable of matching a second-stage or even a third-stage Soul Foundation Realm expert.


The gap between seventh-stage Dragon Ascension Realm and third-stage Soul Foundation Realm might seem small, but in truth, it was a gap of an entire cultivation realm and could not be measured in stages. There was a saying that a single realm was akin to an entire world, so an Emperor was a world apart from a Sovereign. Even a peak Emperor capable of fighting a first-stage Sovereign would come to be known as an ultimate genius. Thus, Xiang Shaoyun had just accomplished an extremely freakish feat.


And yet, before someone like Zhan Wushuang, Xiang Shaoyun"s attack still couldn"t threaten him. After all, Zhan Wushuang possessed combat prowess comparable to a fourth-stage or even a fifth-stage Soul Foundation Realm expert. However, Xiang Shaoyun"s Phantom s.h.i.+ft had disoriented him, forcing him to rely only on his defense to deal with the incoming attack since he couldn"t do anything else in time.


Indestructible Avatar!


A brilliant golden radiance flowed across the surface of his skin, making him look like a golden statue as he bathed in the endless torrent of lightning. Xiang Shaoyun"s Nine Overlord Skyslaying Saber Technique was definitely no pushover, and the power of lightning was known as the most destructive power. Relying on the terrifying prowess of the lightning tribulation"s final stage, the attack finally broke the Indestructible Avatar.


Zhan Wushuang was submerged in an endless ocean of lightning that had, in fact, deepened the gorge. Broken rocks flew about; even more turned into fine powder.


The disciples were all alarmed. They had no doubt that if they were the ones faced with this attack, they would die.


"The lightning tribulation has never been something an average person can survive. And yet Xiang Shaoyun is like a fish in water amid the tribulation. Furthermore, he can even borrow the might of the tribulation to attack Zhan Wushuang. This is too scary."


"Is this Xiang Shaoyun"s real strength? He has only used his lightning star. What if he uses all his stars?"


"Zhan Wushuang won"t be defeated just like this, right? If so, won"t the second spot on the Dragon Phoenix List be Xiang Shaoyun"s?"


"Heh, you really think Zhan Wushuang is called the Unrivaled Fist for nothing? Just watch. He won"t go down so easily."


...


Under Xiang Shaoyun"s barrage of attacks, apart from a deep crater, numerous saber cuts were also left in their surroundings. Each cut exuded thick saber intent, transforming the battlefield into a place where the academy"s future generations could come and cultivate.


By the time the technique ended, Xiang Shaoyun looked exhausted. It was clear he had overexerted himself this time.


As for Money, he finally completed his breakthrough, making an astonis.h.i.+ng jump from the fifth stage to the ninth stage, becoming a dreadful Demon Emperor. He exuded a thick draconic aura that felt extremely terrifying. He had also undergone a ma.s.sive physical transformation.


Draconic scales now ran through his body, and four draconic limbs had grown out of his serpentine body. His serpentine head increasingly resembled a draconic head, and someone who had never seen a true dragon would probably think of him as a true dragon.
