Chapter 1360: You're Not Allowed To Harm The Overlord
The blood-soaked robe was something left from Xiang Shaoyun's previous life. A large amount of his blood essence was left in it, allowing him to display his previous life's strength. Unfortunately, the robe was no supreme weapon. It was only a robe that had been dyed red in blood. There was a limit to what it could do. After being used repeatedly, the blood-soaked robe had reached its limit.
Xiang Shaoyun was the first to notice that his robe had stopped working. Without hesitation, he started fleeing after turning invisible. If he remained, he would suffer gravely. But just as he was about to escape, an incorporeal power descended. A voice rang out, "Return."
Xiang Shaoyun crashed straight into the incorporeal power and was sent flying backward while coughing blood. The old man who had opened the Saintforce Realm appeared. This was the same person who had stopped Xiang Shaoyun's escape.
When the others saw that Xiang Shaoyun had been injured, they launched even more long-range attacks at him. None of these Saints was a weakling. Each attack seemed to ignore space itself and instantly reached him. No regular person could survive such powerful attacks.
Left with no choice, Xiang Shaoyun released his Imperial Nether Domain and spread it toward the Saints. His current Imperial Nether Domain was capable of covering a massive distance. Three Saints weren't able to escape in time and were pulled inside.
"Die!" Xiang Shaoyun utilized his soul foundation and bombarded the three with numerous attacks of myriad forms. Countless chains also shot out and tied them up. At the same time, Gui Qi appeared and attacked the three with soul attacks, catching them by complete surprise.
The three were greatly frightened as they thought that Xiang Shaoyun was still as powerful as before when the blood-soaked robe was still active. They started resisting in panic. However, they had no way of defending against Gui Qi's soul attacks. Xiang Shaoyun's endless attacks also struck them, causing them to wail in pain.
Yu Huayan had not been trapped by Xiang Shaoyun. As a pseudo-God who wielded a god-grade weapon, she was a thorny opponent that Xiang Shaoyun did not wish to provoke. Xiang Shaoyun only felt regretful that he hadn't been able to trap Di Ganning. That fellow had fled far away. He would definitely not spare that fellow otherwise.
Xiang Shaoyun tried to kill the three Saints as quickly as possible. Unfortunately, before he could finish them off, an attack arrived and blasted his Imperial Nether Domain apart. Xiang Shaoyun felt a massive impact clash against his saint soul. His mind shook as he coughed up a massive amount of blood. His body collapsed onto the snowy ground. His blood flowed, dying the snow beneath him red.
"Overlord!" Yu Caidie and Devil Concubine cried out in panic.
Those close to Xiang Shaoyun were distressed. Regardless of whether he was a devil, he had won their acknowledgment with his character. He had never wronged them. The other Saints started cheering. Finally, Xiang Shaoyun was about to meet his end.
"This devil is truly a difficult opponent, forcing even that lord to make a move."
"The devils have terrifying abilities. But why can he cultivate even the astral energy of us humans to such an extent? That fusion of nine energies is definitely not a lie."
"I'm curious about that as well. The devils shouldn't have been capable of cultivating astral energy. How did that fellow do it?"
"This body might be the shell of a devil. That is why he can cultivate two different systems. What a pitiful child."
...
The old man descended from the peak of the Heavenly Snow Mountain. Instantly, he landed before Xiang Shaoyun.
"You're not allowed to harm the overlord!" Yu Caidie could no longer maintain her calm. She roared as a certain seal within her body seemed to break. A powerful strength erupted from her body as the phantom of a phoenix appeared around her. A fiery armor appeared and covered her body.
Moving with the might of a phoenix, she charged the old man at an astonishing speed. At this moment, she looked more like a God than a pseudo-Saint. As she stabbed her sword at the old man, a phoenix's cry rang in the air. The power behind her stab shocked all onlookers.
"Sigh. How loyal," sighed Yu Huayan when she saw what Yu Caidie did.
In her previous life, Yu Caidie had also reached the Rebirth Realm. In this life, she had awakened her memories early on. She wouldn't have been able to advance so rapidly otherwise. Like Xiang Shaoyun, she could also regain her previous life's combat strength.
She had been keeping her strength sealed, but in her fury, she finally broke the seal. The raging flame that had abruptly appeared was shockingly powerful. Even the Heavenly Snow Mountain's snow started melting away. The old man frowned as he flicked his sleeve at the incoming sword. The sleeve enlarged and completely swallowed the incoming attack.
World Within Sleeve!
That was a supreme technique, easily erasing Yu Caidie's powerful attack.
"Go back," said the old man as he flicked his sleeve again, whipping Yu Caidie with a powerful force.
Yu Caidie was no pushover. Her entire body was enveloped by flame as her eyes shone brightly. She moved at an astonishing speed, avoiding the attack before rushing toward Xiang Shaoyun. She had to save him.
"Go back," repeated the old man as he flicked his sleeve. His sleeve seemed to have transformed into an entire world that closed in on Yu Caidie.
Yu Caidie repeatedly dodged only to find that she was unable to escape the attack. The sleeve eventually flung her away. The old man did not intend to harm Yu Caidie. He only sent her flying away without injuring her.
Yu Caidie remained stubborn and charged forth once again. A massive strength erupted from her sword. With one slash, a current of swords cascaded forth, cutting the space before her into pieces while her raging flame burned the sky red.
"Stubborn girl," said the old man indifferently as he reached for Yu Caidie. His palms seemed capable of plucking stars as he reduced the endless flame into a plaything in his hands. When his attack struck her once again, she was sent flying while coughing blood. A certain seal formed around her, suppressing her strength.
