I Am Overlord Chapter 461

Chapter 461: Enhanced Recovery

With his inner gaze, Xiang Shaoyun observed his own blood and found that its color was darkening bit by bit. Although it was still red, it had a tiny tinge of black, looking somewhat different than the blood of a regular human.

However, his blood was still much brighter in comparison with the blood of the devils here, looking like a combination of human and devil blood. Some sort of power seemed to be hidden in his blood, and this power had currently formed some sort of resonance with his Nether Soul Domain, causing the Nether Soul Domain to become increasingly vivid.

But for the current Xiang Shaoyun, the lessening pain of his acupoints and meridians occupied all his focus. This was a change that caused him to be both happy and worried. He was happy that with his foundation repaired, he would be able to regain his combat strength, but he was worried of the trouble his blood could potentially bring him. After all, humans did not generally get along well with devils.

“Now is not the time to think about that. I should focus on repairing my foundation before upgrading my footwork intent.” Xiang Shaoyun decided to toss it all into the back of his mind. He then increased the speed at which he absorbed wind energy.

As he repaired his foundation, his absorption speed grew. Due to his bloodline, a large amount of devilish energy was also converging around him before entering his body. His blood came alive and coursed all over his body, nourishing his entire being. His vitality grew boundless, and his bodily constitution started transforming.

It was an extremely astonishing transformation. His veins, meridians, and acupoints all expanded, and his inner organs grew more durable.. More importantly, when the blood reached his head, his Nether Soul Domain finally became fully solid. Its size grew, and his soul became more solid, looking sparkling and translucent. His soul power instantly multiplied several times over.

Before this, Xiang Shaoyun had a soul power comparable to that of a third-stage or even a fourth-stage Emperor. Now, his soul had become comparable to a fifth-stage Emperor’s in strength. Furthermore, the solidity of his soul was something no Emperor could compare with.

In the Nether Soul Domain, the Nether Dragon Soul Headband started emitting an indescribable power as it started absorbing strands of the nether soul energy. The dragon-shaped loop of the headband seemed to have come alive, forming the apparition of a dragon around it.

All these changes were too shocking, something that nobody would have expected. Xiang Shaoyun spent an entire day and night seated in meditation, completely submersed in his transformation.

Right this moment, two black figures drifted over along with a gust of wind. These were two devil wind beasts, both around the third-stage and fourth-stage Devil King Realms. However, they possessed a speed comparable to a sixth-stage King. They had a natural advantage in this kind of environment because they could move along with the wind.

They had noticed Xiang Shaoyun, and a look of bloodlust filled their eyes. A number of humans had intruded upon their territory, and a command had been issued to slay these human intruders. These two were the Devil Kings tasked to hunt the humans at the outer fringe of their territory.

One of the beasts concealed itself and opened its mouth wide before aiming it at Xiang Shaoyun. A powerful suction force erupted, instantly pulling a large amount of dust and pebbles along with Xiang Shaoyun toward its mouth.

This was an innate ability of the devil wind beast, Heaven Devouring Exhalation. They could multiply the power of their inhalation and exhalation with the power of wind. Right as Xiang Shaoyun was pulled into the devil wind beast’s mouth, he suddenly opened his eyes. Both his hands shot out and grabbed at the edge of the mouth, stopping the beast from swallowing him.

Seven Scorching Sun Claws, Jade Tearing Stance!

He assumed a clawing stance while a formidable power of flame surged out of him, instantly tearing the mouth apart.

“Roar!”

The devil wind beast roared in pain. Xiang Shaoyun then flew out of its mouth before turning and clawing the beast three more times, tearing chunks of flesh from its body.

He had already fully recovered his combat prowess. In fact, his strength had grown, with his cultivation level reaching mid fourth-stage Skysoar Realm. This was a growth the transformation of his blood had granted him. 

His physical flesh had also become much more powerful, and it was obvious from his chiseled body, which was practically radiating an explosive strength. The transformation had granted his body a qualitative change. One could say that he could currently withstand the frontal attack of a mid-king weapon without even using his Six Goldplate Manual. He could clearly feel that he was currently in excellent shape. Perhaps this was the strength he should have possessed all along.

I have never expected that absorbing devilish energy will actually help my bloodline transform. Perhaps a day will come when this no longer remains a secret. Only by becoming stronger will I be able to overcome all adversaries, thought Xiang Shaoyun.

The other devil wind beast shot blades of wind from its mouth, sending a raging storm of blades toward Xiang Shaoyun. It was an attack capable of threatening even fifth-stage Skysoar Realm cultivators.

Xiang Shaoyun glanced at the blades and casually waved his hands, directly shattering all of them. His body then flickered before a Gold Helix Fist shot forward and struck the devil wind beast.

Bang!

The beast exploded from that one punch. The other beast was injured but still alive. It tried to escape, but Xiang Shaoyun had no intention of sparing it. He swept his leg forward, attacking with the power of wind, and hacked the beast into two with his kick.

“Why do people say that the power of wind is not very destructive? I don’t think so at all,” muttered Xiang Shaoyun, shocked by the power of his kick.

He had only spent a day and a night absorbing wind energy, yet a casual kick of his was already so powerful. It was blatantly obvious he had grown greatly in strength. However, he was still shocked by his own kick. After all, he had never cultivated a wind elemental battle technique, and this was only a casual kick.

He calmed down and used his inner gaze to study his star. He found that his wind star was filled with a plentiful amount of energy. It would seem like he had absorbed a considerable amount of wind energy during his meditation. With his filled star coupled with his ability to punch above his weight, it was completely unsurprising that his kick was so powerful.

Of course, in comparison with his lightning, gold, and flame stars, the wind star was still weaker. This was the gap between unique elemental powers and regular elemental powers.

“Great! I guess it is time for me to get going, then,” said Xiang Shaoyun. With a confident smile, he strode into the devil wind beast territory.
