I Am Overlord

Chapter 1395: Emotionless Sword Dao

Lei Wuqing was finally making a move. The Emotionless Sword Technique was a ruthless sword technique. The moment the sword left its sheath, blood would flow and life would be reaped. This was a merciless sword, a sword of slaughter.

The emotionless sword dao was different from Ximen Xue’s unfeeling sword dao. The emotionless sword dao was a dao where all emotions would be erased, a dao that could only be cultivated by someone who had successfully erased all emotions.

It was rumored that in order to cultivate the emotionless sword dao, Lei Wuqing had personally killed his parents and wife, severing all emotions. Only then did he manage to master the emotionless sword dao.

He was not participating in the devil extermination operation for Beiming Tianpeng’s sake. Rather, he was only here for Xiang Shaoyun’s treasures. The Yin Mother Sword was one such treasure that Lei Wuqing greatly coveted. He had a feeling that such a weapon was what he needed the most.

Because of that, when Xiang Shaoyun was facing Beiming Tianpeng, Lei Wuqing approached noiselessly and hid, waiting for Xiang Shaoyun to fully focus on Beiming Tianpeng before launching a sudden attack. He succeeded, picking the perfect moment to launch his attack. With one slash, he cut off the world of mortals, severing all emotions and life. This sword technique was entirely capable of facing off against even Great Saints.

Enveloped in the thick killing intent of devilish energy, Xiang Shaoyun’s senses were naturally sharp. Even so, he was still a beat slower when reacting to the incoming sword. He failed to evade the sword in time, allowing the sword energy to engulf his entire person and pierce numerous holes into his body. Blood spurted out of his wounds as though numerous crimson flowers were blooming together.

If Xiang Shaoyun hadn’t focused on protecting his vitals, that one attack would have probably been enough to end his life. Despite having protected his vitals, he was still ridden with wounds. Even his bones were visible. One could see just how terrifying Lei Wuqing was.

“Lord Wuqing, please end his life!” said Beiming Tianpeng as he heaved a breath of relief.

Lei Wuqing ignored Beiming Tianpeng. He had not imagined that Xiang Shaoyun would still be alive after taking a hit from him. He was amazed by Xiang Shaoyun’s reaction time, but he wasn’t overly impressed. He was confident that nobody could stop him from killing this devil before him.

Emotionless Sword Technique, second stance: Severing Emotions!

With one slash, all emotions were severed as though the entire world had become a cold world of no emotions. Warmth no longer existed, turning the world dry and dull. Xiang Shaoyun could feel clearly how strong Lei Wuqing was. But with the Yin Mother Sword in hand, it wasn’t like he stood no chance against his opponent.

Unfortunately, Lei Wuqing’s previous attack had injured him too badly, causing even his reaction time to slow down considerably. He would have a hard time against Lei Wuqing. Left with no choice, Xiang Shaoyun could only release his Imperial Nether Domain, hoping to kill his opponent with the domain.

Lei Wuqing was naturally aware of how powerful the Imperial Nether Domain was. He immediately moved away, not allowing the domain to reach him. Inside the Imperial Nether Domain, Xiang Shaoyun utilized his chains to weaken Lei Wuqing’s sword energy before hurriedly withdrawing as well.

He no longer had the blood-soaked robe. Even with the Yin Mother Sword and his numerous abilities, he was still somewhat lacking when compared with a peak Saint. He had no intention of throwing his life away here. He fled at his top speed, moving like a meteor. It almost seemed like he was unaffected by his injuries.

“Trying to escape? Dream on!” Beiming Tianpeng had not expected that Xiang Shaoyun would turn tail and flee so early. He instantly activated his lotus chariot and pursued Xiang Shaoyun.

However, a certain figure moved even faster than Beiming Tianpeng. That person was none other than Lei Wuqing, who greatly coveted Xiang Shaoyun’s Yin Mother Sword. How could he allow Xiang Shaoyun to escape so easily?

Moving as fast as a Great Saint, Lei Wuqing tore through space as he shot forward and slashed at Xiang Shaoyun. The terrifying sword ray sliced through a massive distance, instantly reaching Xiang Shaoyun.

Unable to avoid the attack, Xiang Shaoyun was left with more new wounds on his body. A massive amount of blood was spilled, making him look incomparably sorry.

Despite his miserable appearance, Xiang Shaoyun did not feel too much pain. After being tempered with the Limit Stimulation Technique, such pain was far lower than his limit. However, things still wouldn’t end well for him if he allowed this situation to continue. Without any hesitation, he turned invisible and avoided Lei Wuqing’s pursuit. Alas, Beiming Tianpeng arrived and activated the mirror once again.

“Devil, stop struggling and accept your death,” Beiming Tianpeng roared.

As for Lei Wuqing, he remained silent yet fatal as he continued swinging his sword, cutting space into pieces ahead of him. One could see how much he wanted to kill Xiang Shaoyun.

Using the Nether Soul Dragon Headband, Xiang Shaoyun protected his head to avoid being dealt a fatal blow. However, his heart was similarly as important. Several sword rays had successfully reached his heart. Death had never felt so near before, further fueling his fury.

“I can’t die here! You guys should be the ones to die!” said Xiang Shaoyun as he mustered all the strength in his devil pearl to digest the remnant energy from the devil core he had dissolved earlier. Instantly, he reached the late second-stage Devil Saint Realm. Under the devilish energy’s nourishment, his wounds started healing. Having done all that, he swung his sword at Lei Wuqing.

Even a random slash of the Yin Mother Sword could cause tremendous damage. The slash cut Lei Wuqing’s attack into two, causing the attack to scatter before it struck Xiang Shaoyun and added more wounds to his body.

The additional injuries angered Xiang Shaoyun so much that he did not want to keep fleeing. He dissolved two more devil cores in his astral cosmos sea, instantly filling his body with devilish energy. His rune shone even brighter as dense devilish energy enveloped his body. His injuries healed at an even faster pace as he channeled even more energy into the Yin Mother Sword and madly slashed at the lotus chariot and Lei Wuqing.

Yin Sword Technique, third stance!

One slash extinguished all light and erased all life, flooding the world with darkness. Nobody could stop the might of this slash.

An incomparably solemn expression covered Lei Wuqing’s face. He mustered all his strength to stop the slash, but the slash was too powerful. It blasted through his net of sword rays and struck his body, spilling his blood.

As for the lotus chariot, it could barely resist the slash. Numerous cuts were left on it, and the band tying Beiming Tianpeng’s hair was cut through, causing his hair to cascade down his shoulder. Beiming Tianpeng was so frightened he nearly lost his footing.

Just as Xiang Shaoyun was about to continue attacking, Xiang Shaoyun saw the other Saints press toward him, forcing him to resume his escape.
