I Am Overlord

Chapter 1287: Fierce Fight Between Geniuses

The powers of wind, lightning, and flame instantly became a natural calamity that was much scarier than the earlier sea of lightning. The power of wind broke the shackles of lightning and flame, greatly increasing the destructiveness of the two powers.

Song Tiandao had not imagined that Xiang Shaoyun would be someone who cultivated multiple powers. The sudden change caught him by complete surprise. However, he was still able to react. His sabers speedily spiraled around his body, slashing at the incoming energy bombardment. He protected himself with all his strength.

Xiang Shaoyun naturally wouldn’t allow him to escape so easily after he deliberately changed powers. Wind seemed to be everywhere, helping the lightning and flame break through the sabers to land on Song Tiandao’s body.

Bzzt! Bzzt!

Song Tiandao’s clothes were reduced into ashes, revealing an upper body filled with scars.

“Kill!” Xiang Shaoyun roared as he continued erupting with three different powers, slashing his saber forward mercilessly without giving Song Tiandao any respite.

He knew very well that if he didn’t take Song Tiandao down now, his opponent would come back with even greater strength after getting a short break. Xiang Shaoyun showed no mercy, aiming for Song Tiandao’s vitals. One could not afford to be careless against a genius like this. 

Eventually, Song Tiandao grew furious because he couldn’t accept being pushed around by a cultivator whose cultivation was lower than his.

“A commendable opponent. You’re worth all my effort,” said Song Tiandao. Dragon roars started coming out of his arms, as though two azure dragons were roaring at the sky. He slashed with both his sabers, unleashing two even scarier energy sabers.

Double Dragons’ Roar!

This was a terrifying saber technique that was absolutely a saint-grade battle technique. The two azure dragons seemed to have come alive, crushing through Xiang Shaoyun’s attack before rushing toward him.

Fortunately, Xiang Shaoyun moved away in time, or the two dragons would have been enough to kill him. The two stood far apart from each other, staring at each other. A decent amount of wounds could be seen on Xiang Shaoyun’s body. His clothes were badly damaged, making him look rather sorry. In truth, his injuries were light. After all, he was someone who had killed even Saints. His combat experience wasn’t any less than Song Tiandao’s.

As for Song Tiandao, he wasn’t any better off. His upper body was bare, and many wounds could be seen on his body. It was obvious the two were almost on par with each other. As they regarded each other, the two did not attempt to attack. Rather, they stood silently, waiting for the other party to show an opening. It was at this time that a group of devils rushed toward them.

“Feast on the humans!” roared the devil leading the group.

There were about 500 devils in the group. Their approach caused even the ground to shake. Some flew, some ran on the ground, and some burrowed underground. They did not take long to reach Xiang Shaoyun and Song Tiandao.

The two did not seem to have noticed the devils. They only had each other in their eyes. Just as the devils were about to attack, the two moved. Instead of attacking the devils, they attacked each other. They held nothing back and fought with all their strength.

Xiang Shaoyun did not face Song Tiandao head on. Utilizing his unparalleled speed, he moved around Song Tiandao, slashing his saber from numerous directions. His powers also constantly changed, bombarding Song Tiandao with numerous different power combinations.

Song Tiandao wasn’t too slow either. No matter what, his cultivation level was two stages higher. He was able to keep up with Xiang Shaoyun, causing the two to start fighting at a rapid speed.

Clank!

Sabers clashed constantly while powerful shockwaves kept rippling out, hitting the devils and causing them to wail incessantly. The devils tried to mount a sneak attack, but the two had instead evaded the devils before attacking each other. While fighting each other, they did not forget to slaughter the devils that dared to approach them.

The constant explosions arising from their clashes were akin to fireworks. The devils were furious. They wanted to pull back and attack from afar, but the two humans constantly moved toward the devils even while fighting each other.

Golden Fury!

Flamewater Discordance!

Two Dragons Snatching the Pearl!

Furious Dragon Flips Its Body!

…

One ought to admit that these two were absolute geniuses. Each attack was released with incredible mastery. Their attacks looked simple yet complicated, and the prowess of their attacks was far beyond what their peers were capable of.

More and more devils died to their shockwaves. One could say that instead of killing the two humans, the devils had instead transformed into training partners. They were completely incapable of harming the two. The leader of the group was infuriated. It charged over with the strongest Devil Sovereigns under its command in its attempt to eliminate the two humans.

Terrifying devilish energy erupted from their bodies. Poison and numerous other attacks merged together and shot toward the two humans. They were confident the two humans wouldn’t be able to survive their joint attack. It was at this time that several energy sabers flew toward them.

Whoosh!

Instantly, the sabers sliced through them like a hot knife through butter. After killing the devils, Xiang Shaoyun and Song Tiandao resumed their battle. The fight lasted three days and three nights, causing massive destruction in the area and slaughtering countless devils. With the intensity of their battle, it was impossible for them to stop before deciding on a victor.

“Time to end this. Witness my third saber,” said Song Tiandao as he unsheathed his third saber.

Instead of wielding the third saber with his hands, it flew out by itself like it was alive. Akin to an azure dragon, it slashed at Xiang Shaoyun.

Azure Dragon Slash!

This was Song Tiandao’s trump card, also the strongest stance of the Azure Dragon Saber Technique he used. The instant the third saber flew out, the two sabers in his hands flew out, transformed into azure dragons, and slashed at Xiang Shaoyun.

Three sabers came from three different directions, not giving Xiang Shaoyun any chance to escape. This attack had exhausted all of Song Tiandao’s strength and could threaten even a Saint.

With Song Tiandao’s cultivation of sixth-stage Soul Foundation Realm, it was incredibly impressive of him to display such strength. Xiang Shaoyun naturally didn’t dare to hold anything back. He directly used his primal inception energy and blasted the incoming attack.

Overlord Skyslaying Saber, sixth stance, One slash to destroy the heavens and earth!
