I Am Overlord Chapter 1055: Alone Against a Sect

Chapter 1055: Alone Against a Sect

Xiang Shaoyun was confident in his formation skills. He did not do anything to the grand formation earlier because he didn't want to attract unwanted attention. Now that the Di Sect had activated the formation and everyone was focused on the battle outside, he was able to look for the formation's weak point and break it.
With the profundity of earth, he damaged the formation eyes, causing the formation's power to slowly fade away. Apart from that, he also destroyed one of the formation eyes on purpose, creating a loud explosion and a cloud of dust, sowing more confusion among the Di Sect members. The sect members paled from fright, and some of them were killed by the explosion. They were already wavering in morale. With the formation destroyed, they despaired.
"Stay in your positions. I will destroy the Di Sect by myself," commanded Xiang Shaoyun.
He wanted to do the same as the him from two lifetimes ago had done, fighting a myriad of enemies all by himself, slaughtering ceaselessly until Di Batian showed himself.
"Why tire yourself like this? I'll get Granny Luo and the others to kill them," said Ye Chaomu.
"That's right. Grandpa Urchin can destroy them all with a wave of his hand," said Tuoba Wan'er.
"You don't understand. I was the one who lost the Ziling Sect. And thus, I need to get it back with my very own hands. Just watch. Remember to capture Di Batian the moment he shows himself," said Xiang Shaoyun.
He had been waiting a long time for today. He must kill to his heart's content, proving that as the young master, he was also someone blessed with talent and not trash as all the sect members had thought.
Riding on Little White, he charged forth and swung his Overlord Skyslaying Saber at his enemies. Like a lightning god, Xiang Shaoyun sent numerous lightning bolts raining down on the Di Sect members. They all dodged everywhere in a panic.
"Impudent! You dare charge us alone? I'll personally slaughter you," said the peak Sovereign who tried to kill Xiang Shaoyun earlier.
"You really think I'm afraid of you? You can't even beat my clone," said Xiang Shaoyun as he revealed his clone rushing over like a gust of wind.
The clone's combat strength was already at the peak of the realm. He used the power of wind and created a massive storm, laying destruction all around him. The peak Sovereign instantly lost his balance and was dragged into the storm.
The Sovereign was someone who had been able to reach a high cultivation level, so he was no pushover either. In the storm, he released his nine-layered soul foundation and tried to suppress the storm with his full strength.
Unfortunately for him, Xiang Shaoyun was capable of punching above his class. With his soul power equivalent to a nine-stage Sovereign, regular peak Sovereigns wouldn't be his match.
Xiang Shaoyun's storm directly tore down the nine-layered soul foundation and sliced up the Sovereign's body, causing a large amount of blood to flow. Before the Sovereign could even scream, he was already dead.
The Di Sect members despaired when they saw the exchange. Fortunately, one of them was still relatively calm, roaring, "Everyone, work together and kill him with the other formations!"
"That's right. You fools, stop blanking out. Activate the other formations and kill him with long-range attacks," Di Nuo commanded when he finally recovered from his shock.
With that, some people went to activate the other formations, while some started throwing long-range attacks at Xiang Shaoyun. The Di Sect had a lot of members. They had over 10,000 Kings. One could only imagine how terrifying it was when all of them attacked together.
Fortunately, Xiang Shaoyun's main body and clone were located at two different spots, and they were able to somehow split and thin the barrage of attacks. Otherwise, even a peak Sovereign would have no choice but to flee.
"The holy son-in-law is too rash. How can he stubbornly charge in alone? Let's go help him," suggested the anxious Tuoba Wan'er.
Devouring Ghost said, "Young madam, do not be anxious. The young master is not someone rash. Since he dares to charge in, it only means that he has the strength to deal with them. We only need to watch."
"But they have too many people." Tuoba Wan'er was still worried.
"Big brother will definitely be able to create miracles," said Ye Chaomu firmly.
She might look confident, but she was actually restless. Gong Qinyin was also nervous. Inwardly, Gong Qinyin vowed, I must cultivate even more firmly. Only then will I be of help to Shaoyun.
"Boss is challenging an entire sect by himself," said Xia Liuhui with a gasp. He was filled with admiration toward Xiang Shaoyun.
Facing the deluge of attacks, Xiang Shaoyun showed no fear. He had long prepared himself to deal with something like this. Both his main body and clone used the same technique: Nether Yin Gate!
The Nether Yin Gate was one of the three greatest abilities of the Imperial Nether Clan and was incredibly mysterious. After tasting how wondrous the technique was, Xiang Shaoyun would naturally make use of it when appropriate.
As the two waves of attacks went to his main body and clone, the two gates opened and created two black holes. The black holes emanated a thick devilish aura that caused one to shiver. A powerful absorption force erupted from them and pulled in all the attacks before shifting them to the void. Xiang Shaoyun was completely untouched.
Everyone was stunned. For them, something like the Nether Yin Gate was completely unheard of.
That is the Nether Yin Gate. The young master has actually fully comprehended the Imperial Nether Clan's innate ability, thought Devouring Ghost inwardly.
"What kind of cheating technique is that? Why are all our attacks gone?" exclaimed a Di Sect member.
"That is most certainly a devilish technique. This is too scary. How are we even supposed to harm him?" asked someone in despair.
Their confidence collapsed, and their attacks started weakening. At this time, Xiang Shaoyun's main body charged toward Di Nuo and Di Youguang.
"Stop him! Why are the formations still not activated?" shouted Di Nuo in fear.
"Fourth young master, the other formations can't be activated!" replied someone anxiously.
"Useless. Why can't they be activated?" Di Nuo cursed.
"M-Maybe it's because the formations have worn down over the years and have been completely exhausted of energy," replied that person.
"Worn down? That does not apply to formations! All of you, stop him! I'll get my father to stop him!" said Di Nuo as he hurriedly rushed over to where his father was cultivating. He no longer dared to stay.
"Fourth brother, wait for me. I'll go with you!" shouted Di Youguang, who was just as fearful.
