I Am Overlord Chapter 1603: Repeat Encounters

Chapter 1603: Repeat Encounters

Devouring Ghost, Liu Qingchen, and the Four Night Saints stayed behind to keep the aliens occupied while Xiang Shaoyun and the others withdrew quickly. But before they could go far, they were met with a new danger. Yet another group of aliens had appeared, forcing them to fight.
Yu Caidie, Devil Concubine, Lu Xiaoqing, and some of the Ziling Sect experts fought with all their strength. Xia Liuhui, Liang Zhuangmin, and the others also held nothing back. Only Gui Qi did not fight as he stood guard by Xiang Shaoyun's side. So long as Xiang Shaoyun could recover, everything would be fine.
While everyone was fighting, Xiang Shaoyun focused on recovering. With the profundity of life, he was able to hurriedly recover from his injuries. At the same time, his energy was also being rapidly replenished. He did not want to expose his god soul so fast. This was a competition between Heaven Battling Realm cultivators. If he used his God Realm soul, the competition would lose all its meaning for him.
"Humans, you're too weak. Turn into our food," said an alien as he howled with laughter.
Every one of the aliens was a powerful combatant. With their powerful attacks, they battered and exhausted Xiang Shaoyun's group. If this continued, things would end badly for them.
"Are you having fun? Time for all of you to die," said Xiang Shaoyun after he recovered considerably. With a roar, the Imperial Nether Domain appeared and enveloped the area.
Both the aliens and the humans were pulled into the Imperial Nether Domain. In the domain, Xiang Shaoyun was the ultimate master of everything. The aliens panicked as they had not seen that coming. Even some people from Xiang Shaoyun's side were caught by complete surprise.
"Stop blanking out. This is my domain. I'll give all of you a hand. Kill them all," said Xiang Shaoyun as countless chains shot toward the aliens and bound them.
"Ah, what is this? I can't move anymore!"
"What place is this? Why am I suppressed so badly? Who's messing with me!"
"Don't panic! Focus on breaking free! This is the Imperial Nether Clan's Imperial Nether Domain!"
...
The aliens fell into disorder as cries sounded out repeatedly.
"Kill them all!" roared Yu Caidie with a sharp look on her face. She then led the group and charged the suppressed aliens.
With Xiang Shaoyun's Imperial Nether Domain, the others had a much easier time killing the aliens. Just like that, they averted a crisis. After the battle, everyone felt incomparably weak and finally realized how dangerous the ancient battlefield was. Apart from the aliens, they also had to watch out for other humans. A little carelessness would cost them their lives.
"Overlord, are you fine?" asked Yu Caidie with a look of heartache after the Imperial Nether Domain faded away.
Devil Concubine and Lu Xiaoqing also walked up to him, worried that his injuries would worsen.
Xiang Shaoyun smiled and said, "I'm fine. I'll recover soon enough."
Sure enough, most of his wounds had healed. His recovery speed was truly astonishing.
Unfortunately, he had recovered less than 20 percent of his energy. After all, his energy capacity was far higher than his peers, so he needed some time to fully replenish himself.
"We're still too weak. If the overlord wasn't here, we would have all been killed. We need to grow even stronger," said Devil Concubine with a sense of guilt.
"Um. We need to work even harder. We can't hold the overlord back anymore," said Lu Xiaoqing as she clenched her fists tightly.
Xia Liuhui, Liang Zhuangmin, and Tang Longfei were filled with shame upon hearing their words. They were the actual burdens in the battle earlier.
"Don’t blame yourself. Those aliens had left a decent amount of treasures behind. Look around and see if you can find anything suitable for you. There are also a lot of remnant souls here. If you can find some self-conscious souls or even obtain some inheritances, I believe you can all grow quickly."
Xiang Shaoyun did not say anything else and urged everyone to leave. They should focus on looking for a safe place to rest and recuperate. As they moved, he constantly dissolved saint crystals in his body to replenish his energy.
Unfortunately, misfortune never seemed to arrive singly. Before long, they encountered a group of remnant souls. If it wasn't for Gui Qi, they would have really been in trouble. And right after dealing with the remnant souls, a new crisis appeared.
"My efforts have finally paid off," a voice seething with hatred rang out.
When Xiang Shaoyun and his group looked over, they found that the newcomers were Lan Shenyong, who had a prior conflict with Xiang Shaoyun, and his group.
This time, Lan Shenyong didn't have too many people with him. There were fewer than 50 people in their group, and they looked rather sorry as well. Evidently, they had also just experienced an intense battle. However, they still looked to be in a much better condition than Xiang Shaoyun's group.
They were immediately on alert. If Lan Shenyong's group dared to attack, they would strike back mercilessly.
"So are you going to make a move against us?" asked Xiang Shaoyun calmly.
"Haha. We can consider sparing your lives if you hand over all your contribution points," said Lan Shenyong with a carefree laugh. He could sense that Xiang Shaoyun was greatly weakened at the moment. Furthermore, his group was also much stronger than Xiang Shaoyun's group. He was confident they could defeat Xiang Shaoyun's group.
"If that's your choice, you won't be living a very long life," said Xiang Shaoyun with a frown.
"Fine. Show me what gives you the qualification to utter such words," said Lan Shenyong. He took a step forth and unleashed his aura. It turned out that he had grown considerably. It was no wonder why he sounded so confident.
Just as Xiang Shaoyun was prepared for battle, someone shouted, "A terrifying group of remnant souls are coming!"
Hundreds of people could be seen rushing toward them in a disorderly manner like refugees. The panic on their faces was almost contagious. Xiang Shaoyun could sense several terrifying God Realm souls chasing after the group of humans. None of the souls were weaker than the one Liu Qingchen had faced earlier. It was no wonder that the group of humans were so terrified.
"Damn it! Xiang Shaoyun, consider yourself lucky. Leave!" said Lan Shenyong as he glared at Xiang Shaoyun. He did not dare to pit himself against the remnant souls. Unless they had weapons specialized in countering these souls, staying to face them wouldn't be worth it.
"Overlord, let's leave as well," said Yu Caidie.
"The God Realm souls are truly powerful. If I was at the Great Saint Realm as well, I would be able to deal with one of them," said Devil Concubine indignantly.
"If there's only one of them, it would be a good idea to kill it and obtain its inheritance," said Xia Liuhui with a sigh.
"If there's only one, those humans wouldn't have been fleeing so fearfully either," said Tang Longfei.
The group was prepared to flee when Xiang Shaoyun said, "No. I'll defeat these souls for you. With the rewards from defeating them, all of you can grow stronger."
