I Am Overlord Chapter 1491: Death Eyes

Chapter 1491: Death Eyes

Death would come for all who dared to touch a dragon's inverse scale. Liu Qingchen used all his strength, not giving Xiang Shaoyun one bit of chance. As the fifth prince, he naturally wouldn't accept becoming Xiang Shaoyun's follower. Thus, he unleashed a fierce attack at Xiang Shaoyun.
The violent yet domineering attack was impossible to avoid. Xiang Shaoyun had no choice but to face Liu Qingchen's attacks head on. Once again, Xiang Shaoyun swung his Divine Devilish Black Saber. The black yin energy gathered on the saber, then flew out in the form of a tiger and collided against the draconic scales.
As the two attacks clashed, the tiger was instantly destroyed. The draconic scales continued onward toward Xiang Shaoyun. The Indestructible Dragon Spear in Liu Qingchen's hand was also a pseudo-god weapon. Xiang Shaoyun's Divine Devilish Black Saber held no advantage over the spear, so it wasn't able to shorten the gap in strength caused by the two's cultivation levels.
As the draconic scales were about to reach Xiang Shaoyun, the Black Yin Magnetic Field took form before him. Space warped, and the attack deviated from its trajectory, missing Xiang Shaoyun's vitals. It only left a deep scar on Xiang Shaoyun's shoulder.
Liu Qingchen repeatedly attacked, sending numerous dragons out as he aimed to suppress Xiang Shaoyun with brute strength. Xiang Shaoyun was forced into a defensive position. He retreated again and again as numerous wounds were left on his body. If it wasn't for the Black Yin Magnetic Field, he would have been defeated by now.
"Stop struggling. Xiang Shaoyun, surrender. Otherwise, I won't be able to control myself. You might die," said Liu Qingchen.
Xiang Shaoyun did not say anything. His divine dao eyes repeatedly flickered as he saw through each and every attack coming his way. Thanks to the divine dao eyes, he avoided the truly fatal attacks. A plan of counterattack slowly took form in his mind.
Xiang Shaoyun was struck dozens of times, but with the profundity of time, he was able to heal even faster than Liu Qingchen's Indestructible Avatar. A few of the onlookers saw what Xiang Shaoyun was doing and exclaimed inwardly, Does Xiang Shaoyun possess a secret healing technique as well?
Generally speaking, those at the Saint Realm would be able to start healing themselves with Saint Realm energy. But to heal rapidly, one needed to first reach the Great Saint Realm. However, Great Saints also possessed incredibly destructive attacks. Thus, wounds caused by Great Saints wouldn't heal rapidly either. Therefore, the healing speed of Great Saints differed from individual to individual. Evidently, Xiang Shaoyun's healing speed was no less than Liu Qingchen's. Otherwise, he would have already suffered defeat.
As for Liu Qingchen, he couldn't keep on much longer as there was a time limit for the activation of his Indestructible Avatar. If he couldn't defeat Xiang Shaoyun soon, he would be the one to suffer defeat after exhausting his Saint Realm energy.
"You're too stubborn. If I accidentally kill you, don't blame me," roared Liu Qingchen as he squeezed out every bit of strength from his body. His golden body became even more dazzling as his spear became even more powerful. As he stabbed forth, an attack surpassing the attack of a ninth-stage pseudo-God shot forth.
As Xiang Shaoyun faced the seemingly unstoppable attack, the battle intent hiding deep in Xiang Shaoyun's heart was provoked. He put the Divine Devilish Black Saber away and produced a fireball. He then roared, "Fire counters gold, gold counters wood, wood counters earth...each element has its own counter. Counter it!"
As the battle progressed, Xiang Shaoyun's battle instinct helped him recall the relationship between the five elements. He unleashed the energy he had absorbed from the sea of fiery dragon clouds, creating a raging sea of flame that aimed to burn the golden dragon into nothingness.
Unfortunately, Xiang Shaoyun's cultivation level was too low. Fire might counter gold, but if the fire wasn't strong enough, it wouldn't be able to refine the gold. Because of that, Liu Qingchen's attack still stabbed through the sea of flame and struck Xiang Shaoyun, spilling his blood on the ring.
"Overlord!" Devil Concubine exclaimed anxiously.
The other onlookers were also becoming nervous. They weren't sure if Liu Qingchen had accidentally killed Xiang Shaoyun. Under such intense circumstances, Xiang Shaoyun finally successfully comprehended a portion of the profundity of primal chaos. His understanding of the negative relationship between the five elements continued deepening.
Five energies surfaced from his body and started revolving around him as a sense of enlightenment surged in his mind. The negative relationship between elements essentially followed the path of destruction and death.
Abruptly, an indescribable rune appeared in his divine dao eyes. The rune was a manifestation of the negative relationship between the five elements, turning his eyes into a dull gray color that reeked of death. The eyes gave off an extremely eerie sensation.
Even Liu Qingchen shivered when he met Xiang Shaoyun's gaze. At the same time, an indescribable power latched onto him, giving him the sensation that death enveloped him. His life force started weakening. The Indestructible Avatar was mainly supported by vigorous life force. Without his life force, his Indestructible Avatar started weakening.
"Impossible!" Liu Qingchen exclaimed in alarm as he hurriedly used his remaining strength to launch an attack toward Xiang Shaoyun, trying to finish off Xiang Shaoyun as quickly as possible.
Alas, Xiang Shaoyun wouldn't give him such a chance. The dull gray rune in Xiang Shaoyun's eyes spun faster and faster before shooting toward Liu QIngchen. The aura of death caused Liu Qingchen's life force to swiftly wither.
The withering life force wasn't a misconception caused by the powers of yin and yang. Rather, it was caused by the death energy erasing Liu Qingchen's life force. Even if a Great Saint possessed a long lifespan, one still couldn't afford to have one's lifeforce exhausted unendingly. In the blink of an eye, Liu Qingchen lost about 100 years of his lifespan.
Greatly frightened, Liu Qingchen immediately distanced himself from Xiang Shaoyun, giving up even his own weapon. He activated the Indestructible Avatar's healing effects, but unfortunately, the injury he had suffered was not an external injury. Rather, his life force had been damaged, and he could not replenish it.
Still in a state of comprehension, Xiang Shaoyun reacted with his instinct alone and pursued Liu Qingchen, completely ignoring the Indestructible Dragon Spear stabbed on his body. As he gazed at Liu Qingchen with his gray eyes, a massive amount of death energy leaked out. So dense was the death energy that even the surrounding onlookers could sense the sensation of death.
Frowning, Mo Yue exclaimed in shock, "Death Eyes! That kid actually cultivated such a terrifying eye technique?"
"That's not possible, right? I thought only specters and zombies could cultivate Death Eyes? Even if this kid has devil blood in his veins, he shouldn't be able to cultivate it," said Mo Xuwu.
"Don't forget his strongest physique. He is the master of nine powers. Nothing is impossible for him," said Mo Yue firmly. He found himself liking Xiang Shaoyun more and more.
