I Am Overlord Chapter 1745: The War Begins

Chapter 1745: The War Begins

The various aliens appeared confident that Xiang Shaoyun would die when they saw Mao Gangqiang use his racial ability. An attack like that could give even a fresh Nine Revolutions Realm expert trouble, to say nothing of Xiang Shaoyun, who was only an eighth-stage God.
Unfortunately for them, they had underestimated Xiang Shaoyun's Primal Inception Wall. When the different attacks struck the wall, strand after strand of different profundities leaked out and greatly weakened the attacks.
That wall was definitely a top-tier defensive technique. If it wasn't for Mao Gangqiang's sheer prowess, the wall would have been able to perfectly stop the three attacks. Xiang Shaoyun slightly narrowed his eyes as his Primal Inception Wall crumbled apart silently. Mao Gangqiang was overjoyed, and he hurriedly rushed over before attacking with his six weapons again.
Countless weapons surrounded Xiang Shaoyun, threatening to end his life then and there. The humans exclaimed in alarm, thinking that Xiang Shaoyun was probably in great danger without his Primal Inception Wall. He might even die!
One ought to know that many of the older ninth-stage human Gods weren't even Mao Gangqiang's match. One could only imagine how strong Mao Gangqiang was. Those attacks were as powerful as the attacks of the six alien Gods from earlier. The attacks were stunning and incredible, turning the surrounding area into a domain of six weapons. Anyone entering the domain would be instantly turned into mincemeat.
Those supporting Xiang Shaoyun all held their breaths and clenched their fists anxiously, wanting nothing more than to charge forth and fight alongside him. That was better than letting him face their enemies alone.
"Human, time for you to die," said Mao Gangqiang.
"Is that so? But I think that you're the one who should die," Xiang Shaoyun sneered and released his domain, trapping Mao Gangqiang and all his attacks inside.
Imperial Nether Domain!
That was the exclusive ability of the Imperial Nether Clan. The aliens were unaware that Xiang Shaoyun had that ability, including Mao Gangqiang. Thus, he had fallen for Xiang Shaoyun's bait.
In truth, the Primal Inception Wall wouldn't be destroyed so easily. Xiang Shaoyun had merely removed the wall intentionally to lure over Mao Gangqiang and trap him in his domain.
Before anyone could react, Xiang Shaoyun and Mao Gangqiang vanished from the battlefield. Shortly after, Xiang Shaoyun reappeared with three alien heads in his hands. "This alien has been killed. What are you waiting for? Take this chance to kill the rest of them!"
All the aliens were alarmed.
"C-commander Mao has been killed? Is this real?"
"That human is too strong. None of us can defeat him one on one."
"What should we do? We should invite the strongest of our imperial young Gods to make a move and kill this kid!"
"Everyone, attack together and kill him! We can't allow him to continue growing stronger. He will only become a calamity for us!"
...
"The overlord is right. We need to take this chance to kill all these aliens in one go!" shouted Purple Lightning Marquis.
"Kill. Kill all those bastards and avenge the fallen humans," said Xiang Yangzhan with a surging battle intent.
With their lead, the others also mustered their courage and attacked. The first ones to move were naturally Xiang Shaoyun's group. They would support him unconditionally. The other humans who also wished to eliminate the aliens sallied forth as well. They knew that this was the perfect opportunity to deal a great blow to the aliens. After missing this chance, the next chance might not appear again.
"Young Master Jiu, do we fight?" asked the old man beside Qin Jiu.
Qin Jiu hesitated. He wanted to fight, but he did not want to give Xiang Shaoyun the leading role. That was a role that should have belonged to him.
Right that moment, Gongsun Sanyang roared, "What is so scary about the aliens? We can kill them as well! Everyone, attack!"
"That's right. Everyone has the duty to kill these aliens. Today, we'll kill all of them!" shouted a different young God.
More and more young Gods joined the battle against the aliens. This was a massive battle between the two armies, one that would decide which among the two was stronger. For over ten years, the human army had been suffering defeat after defeat. They had barely gotten any victory, and it was finally time for them to release their pent-up anger.
Their momentum was all thanks to the many ninth-stage alien Gods Xiang Shaoyun had killed in a row. Why was Xiang Shaoyun capable of killing Mao Gangqiang so quickly?
Mao Gangqiang was a peak God only a step away from the Nine Revolutions Realm. His combat strength was extremely impressive. Nobody had imagined that Xiang Shaoyun would be able to kill him so quickly, even if Xiang Shaoyun had the Imperial Nether Domain.
What they didn't know was that Xiang Shaoyun's soul would become much stronger in the Imperial Nether Domain. The soul clone was at the same level as Mao Gangqiang, only a step away from the Nine Revolutions Realm. As a soul with such prowess, it wasn't an issue for Xiang Shaoyun to defeat Mao Gangqiang quickly.
In fact, Mao Gangqiang was still alive. Sure, his head had been cut off, but an expert at his level could regrow his heads without much issue. Despite being alive, he wouldn't be able to do much before Xiang Shaoyun's soul clone. He was massively suppressed and beaten up badly. His soul was then controlled by Xiang Shaoyun with the Nether Dragon Soul Curse.
If it wasn't for the sake of increasing the human army's morale, Xiang Shaoyun would have unleashed Mao Gangqiang upon the aliens. Mao Gangqiang was currently recuperating in his astral cosmos sea. With the two armies in an intense battle, Xiang Shaoyun naturally led by example and fought alongside his fellow humans.
As he had killed several aliens in a row, he was naturally many aliens' target. Countless powerful attacks were sent his way, threatening to erase even the area around him.
Xiang Shaoyun's divine dao eyes were fully active, revealing the trajectories of all the incoming attacks. Like a dragon, he charged ahead and blasted out with one domineering attack after another. His punches were each aimed at an opening among the numerous attacks, and they bypassed the attacks and landed on the aliens directly, beating them to a pulp.
"For the sake of the dominion, my master alone fought eight Nine Revolutions Realm aliens. I, Xiang Shaoyun, will not shame my master. I will fight you until the end!" With a roar, two weapons appeared in his hands—the Primal Inception Saber and the Divine Yin Yang Sword. With those weapons in his hands, he charged the aliens.
