I Am Overlord Chapter 567

Chapter 567: Big-Winged Vicious Bird

Xiang Shaoyun had not imagined that there would be living beings here. The other party seemed to be composed of some devils. And when Xiang Shaoyun got a clear look at them, he was given a fright. The other party was actually several vampire bats. They were extremely skinny, as if they were only bags of bones.

Xiang Shaoyun had not expected their sudden appearance, and he was nearly captured as a result. The moment he was subdued, his blood would be sucked dry.

Seven Scorching Sun Claws!

Without wasting any time, Xiang Shaoyun activated the power of Yun Flame and sent several claw attacks out. The surging flame clawed at the bats, causing them to wail in pain.

“Damn it, this kid actually has such an annoying power? Don’t approach him. Kill him from a distance instead!” The leader of the bats cursed and started releasing an odd sound wave with the other bats.

The sound waves weren’t loud, yet they were extremely penetrating. Even when one covered one’s ears, one would still suffer the effect of these attacks. Xiang Shaoyun had a sensation the sound waves had directly entered his brain, causing him to be hit with a dizzy spell.

Fortunately, the Nether Dragon Soul Headband displayed its defensive prowess yet again and isolated the sound waves, protecting Xiang Shaoyun’s soul from suffering any damage.

These sound waves are capable of harming one’s soul, thought Xiang Shaoyun inwardly. Without the Nether Dragon Soul Headband, he would have been defeated.

Thinking about what his fate would be if those sound attacks had managed to harm his soul, a sense of anger toward the Dragon Phoenix Academy surfaced in his heart. Banishing someone to the Back Graveyard was no different than a death sentence! Although he had been stubborn, did he deserve death? While he was distracted by his anger, several vampire bats with crimson eyes charged at him and bit at his vital spots. The dreadful fangs stabbed into his neck, waking him from his thoughts.

“Piss off!” Xiang Shaoyun roared and erupted with the power of Yun Flame.

Bang! Bang!

The overbearing power of the dark red flame instantly ignited the vampire bats that were completely caught by surprise. They started wailing in pain and quickly flew away. Unfortunately, they had already been ignited by Yun Flame’s power. Two of them were instantly turned into ash, while the others turned into fireballs that flew far away.

Without any hesitation, Xiang Shaoyun chased after them. Perhaps only the lair of these bats would be a place he could stay safely. Unfortunately, before he could even catch up to the bats, a big-winged vicious bird appeared from the side and charged him.

The bird was oddly shaped, possessing a pair of wings spanning 18 meters and a body that was less than two meters long. The contrast was large. Additionally, it had a massive beak, and with a pair of sinister eyes, it flew forward rapidly. With a flap of its massive wings, Xiang Shaoyun felt like he was caught in a hurricane as his body started spinning uncontrollably.

Bang!

He then crashed heavily on the ground, creating a cloud of dust. Blood dripped out at the corners of his lips, and he felt like his bones were going to fall apart. If it wasn’t for his heavy armor blocking a majority of the impact, that one attack would have likely been enough to kill him.

Without a doubt, the bird possessed a strength comparable to a peak Emperor. Otherwise, its attack wouldn’t be so terrifying. The bird flew forward again, and before Xiang Shaoyun could react, he was caught in the bird’s beak. He maintained his calm and was about to summon the nether prison devil puppet. However, he found that the bird was merely carrying him toward a certain direction, not directly swallowing him. Thus, he put the summoning on hold.

Shortly after, Xiang Shaoyun was brought to a dry nest on a certain mountain ridge. The nest was dozens of meters in width, and it was the home of this bird. In the nest were three tiny birds that hadn’t even opened their eyes. Even so, they were constantly crying out. Evidently, they were starving.

Xiang Shaoyun finally realized that he was about to be served to the hatchlings. Without any hesitation, he summoned the nether prison devil puppet. The moment the puppet appeared, the bird cried out fiercely and tried to crush Xiang Shaoyun before doing anything else.

However, the nether prison devil puppet did not give it a chance to do so. With three punches, the bird was blasted into smithereens. At this time, another massive bird flew back toward the nest. This bird was actually a Sovereign Realm bird. When it saw its mate dead, it attacked recklessly in fury.

Alas, it was only a first-stage Sovereign. It was not a match for the nether prison devil puppet and was killed off as well. Xiang Shaoyun had no mercy toward these birds. After all, they were planning to feed him to their hatchlings. There was no reason for him to spare them. In any case, he didn’t even know if he could leave this place alive. He stood before the nest and looked at the three hatchlings whose eyes had yet to open. He raised his hand, intending to kill the three as well.

But after some hesitation, he dropped his hand and sighed, “Forget it. You have not done anything wrong. Since I have murdered your parents, the grudge between us is settled.”

He then took out some dried meat and fed the three hatchlings. They did not seem to be picky about food, as they quickly devoured the dried meat. Not satiated with that much food, they continued crying for more food. Feeling helpless, Xiang Shaoyun took out more dried meat and fed them until they stopped crying.

After the meal, the hatchlings fell asleep in the nest. Gazing at the silently sleeping hatchlings, a sense of pity rose in Xiang Shaoyun’s heart. He then scanned his surroundings with his Nether Soul Domain. He found that there were no dangers in his immediate surroundings, but further away, he could sense some powerful auras.

He then withdrew his own aura and thought, Looks like this mountain was the territory of those two birds. This is probably a rather safe location for now. That might not be the case if I leave. I better stay here for a bit and take some time increasing my strength before doing anything else.

He knew very well the kind of situation he was in. This was merely the periphery of the evil spirit’s part of Back Graveyard. Any deeper would be a place where even Emperors and Sovereigns would have a hard time surviving.
