I Am Overlord-Chapter 1764: The Strongest Combatant Moves
Everyone looked at the alien that was walking out, but none could get a clear look at his appearance. Even with their incredible eyesight, they failed to see through the dark energy shrouding the alien's body. It was obvious how deep the alien's cultivation was. Nobody knew the alien's race, but the one to fight last was generally also the strongest. Thus, the humans started worrying about Xiang Shaoyun.
Xiang Shaoyun might have displayed astonishing strength, but he had fought Long Ao and taken a slash from Gu Wang. He must be rather exhausted already, so could he even contend against an alien so strong?
They hoped that someone could take Xiang Shaoyun's place, but none offered. Even Qin Jiu and Gongsun Sanyang, who had gotten some rest, did not move rashly. The pressure they were feeling from the alien was too big, so they weren't even confident enough to challenge the alien.
With his divine dao eyes, Xiang Shaoyun looked over. He managed to obtain a clear look at the approaching alien. He raised his brow and said, "It's a member of that race?"
"Hehe, you have a nice pair of eyes there. They should be destroyed," said the alien with a sneer as two beams of devilish energy shot out of his eyes toward Xiang Shaoyun.
Devil Eyes!
The two beams were not only overbearing and destructive, but they also contained a high concentration of the devil dao. Once one was struck, one would sink into intense fear and die from sheer horror. Xiang Shaoyun's divine dao eyes contained the primal inception profundity, so he met the incoming beams with his own beams.
The four beams collided, creating intense explosions that sent terrifying shockwaves all around them. The shockwaves destroyed the space around them and filled their surroundings with destructive power. Anyone who carelessly entered their battlefield would be killed immediately. Xiang Shaoyun's eyes were no weaker than his opponent's. However, his cultivation was lower, so his beams were pushed back to him.
Xiang Shaoyun thus decided to stop clashing with only his eyes. He mustered all his strength and released his peak battle intent as he roared, "This little trick won't do much to me. Fight me head on!"
He then threw his fist out, unleashing a rumbling punch that was akin to a roaring dragon. Space twisted and warped while several distant small planets exploded from the sheer might of his punch. This attack was far stronger than any attack he had used before. All the onlookers were shocked.
Xiang Shaoyun was supposed to be completely exhausted, so why was he becoming stronger the more he fought? The humans started wondering if that was one of the benefits granted to him by his strongest physique.
"Fine. Let me see if you can actually force me to use all my strength," said the alien as he sent a terrifying devil palm out. It was as though a piece of sky was collapsing upon Xiang Shaoyun, threatening to erase his existence.
Devil Dome Palm!
This technique was quite similar to the renowned Cosmos Within Palm technique, with the only difference being that it was much more overbearing. The alien took a step forward, causing a plume of energy to surge around him as he sent another palm out. Instantly, the space around him was pushed away, leaving only nothingness around him. Even some distant stars couldn't withstand the weight of his palm and exploded one after another.
Not only was the terrifying palm bringing great pressure upon Xiang Shaoyun, but it was also putting great pressure on all the onlookers. It was a truly terrifying attack. The alien wasn't even using his full strength, yet he was already demonstrating a strength on par with a One Revolution expert.
Xiang Shaoyun felt greatly pressured, but he showed no fear. Rather, he became excited and exclaimed, "Excellent!"
He moved both his fists together and threw out the Three Lives Fist repeatedly. Each punch contained the countless permutations of one's previous and current life and was branded with primal inception profundity.
The punches were able to smash the palms apart, but the impact sent Xiang Shaoyun flying away over a kilometer. He was uninjured, but it was clear he wasn't as strong as his opponent. This was the very first opponent he had encountered who was at a similar cultivation level but was actually stronger than him.
Normally, even those two or three stages above him would still be defeated by him, including Gods. This alien, on the other hand, seemed perfect in every aspect. He was halfway into the Nine Revolutions Realm, and even though Xiang Shaoyun's cultivation was only a stage lower, the two had similarly solid foundations. Thus, Xiang Shaoyun was unable to defeat the alien like all his previous opponents.
"Interesting. Try to take two of my palms," said the alien. Still not showing his full strength, the alien sneered and sent two palm attacks out. He was using 80 percent of his strength, a strength on par with a peak One Revolution expert. This attack was even stronger than his previous attack.
Left with no choice, Xiang Shaoyun drew from the energy in his astral cosmos sea. He circulated the Desolation mantra and absorbed even more of the random energy around him to form an even larger fist. He threw it out.
Rumble! Rumble!
The fist and the palms collided, creating terrifying explosions that caused all the onlookers' hearts to thump rapidly. Some of the weaker experts even fainted from the explosions' sheer impact. The various Gods hurriedly protected their Saints as they retreated far away from the battlefield.
I won't be able to withstand those palms even with all my strength, thought Qin Jiu indignantly.
Due to his mastery over the Solitary Empty Heart, he had thought that he would be capable of facing even the strongest of aliens. Alas, he learned just how naive he was. He would probably only manage to achieve a draw with Long Ao. Against this alien shrouded in darkness, he had zero confidence of victory.
Gongsun Sanyang felt the same. He had always thought that he was the most talented young genius in the dominion. But after witnessing Dugu Qiubai's and Xiang Shaoyun's fights, he realized that those two were not weaker than him. And after seeing this alien, he was forced to admit his inferiority.
"Will Yun'er be fine?" asked Xiang Yangzhan. He had always been a confident person, but even he was starting to feel worried.
"Don't worry. The overlord is unrivaled," said Purple Lightning Marquis. He would forever believe in Xiang Shaoyun.
"That's right. The overlord is definitely testing his opponent right now. He still has so many trump cards waiting to be used," said Yu Caidie.
"If I was also at the ninth-stage God Realm, I would be able to kill that fellow like a bug!" said Devil Concubine domineeringly.
The stronger the enemies seemed, the more resentful she was toward her own strength. However, she was still too young. If she was given 100 more years, she was confident she would no longer fear anyone here.
