I Am Overlord

Chapter 1625: Start of the Final Battle

The aliens had claimed a part of the ancient battlefield as their own territory and had laid down numerous traps to form an impenetrable defense system that made attacking them extremely difficult.

However, the human experts had come into the ancient battlefield prepared. They had numerous tricks they could rely on, and they wouldn’t rashly send themselves to their deaths.

Firstly, they utilized god-grade weapons to probe ahead as they advanced, for example, the Guardians Guild’s Demon Revealing Mirror that could break all illusory formations. Another example was the Immortal Road Chamber’s Heaven Suppressing Drum. With the drum, they could shake the heavens and earth, scaring away any enemies lying in ambush without even a battle. The Guangling Palace had their Divine Moon Zither. As Lady Yue Xi played the zither, terrifying sound attacks were unleashed.

With all these treasures being put to use at the same time, the alien territory would no doubt be badly ravaged. Everyone went straight into the alien territory, braced for an intense battle. However, they were surprised to find no aliens after entering the territory.

They immediately felt that something was off. Someone cried out, “Where are all the aliens?”

“Did we attack the wrong place? Why is there nobody here at all?”

“Have we fallen into a trap?”

…

While everyone was confused, Xiang Shaoyun roared, “Everyone, split up! This is a trap! There is a massive god-grade formation beneath us!”

Xiang Shaoyun had been extremely cautious as he advanced. He was certain that the aliens would not admit defeat so easily. Thus, his divine dao eyes had been kept active at all times. He had sensed some disturbances in his vision, which rendered him incapable of seeing through the area. Only when he neared the area did he notice the terrifying god-grade formation in the ground.

His discovery came too late as many other groups had already entered the alien territory. In fact, even some of his own had entered. It was too late for him to stop them. Abruptly, numerous terrifying energy undulations surged from the ground as the god-grade formation formed a murderous force field around the invaders.

Wails rang out in the air. The invaders were incapable of resisting the God Realm energy as one saint body after another burst apart. Broken limbs flew everywhere, and blood spurted out incessantly. Instantly, the area turned into a living hell. Among the invaders were also many pseudo-Gods, but not even they were able to resist the festival of blood the aliens had prepared for them.

“Haha. Die, foolish humans!” An opening was suddenly torn open in the air, and countless aliens flew out from it. A violent stream of attacks descended upon the humans.

The initial hardships followed by the outpouring of aliens caused many humans to feel fear. With such shaky morale, they were ill-equipped to face the aliens in a decisive battle.

Xiang Shaoyun was the first to notice the disadvantage they were in. He had been able to move a number of his people away using the Imperial Nether Domain, preserving their strength. When the aliens appeared, he couldn’t help but sigh and say, “These aliens truly can’t be underestimated. The only thing we can do now is fight with everything we have.”

However, not everyone shared the same thought. Many had lost all courage in the face of the aliens. The ones lucky enough to remain outside the formation started to scatter in disorder.

Xiang Shaoyun roared in fury, “Don’t flee! Fight these aliens with everything you have, or we’ll only be picked off one after another. If that happens, none of us will survive here!”

“That’s right! Don’t run! Fight these aliens with all your strength!” roared Sheng Zhengyi from within the formation with the Demon Revealing Mirror in his hand.

Some other experts also stood their ground and mustered their forces to make a stand against the aliens. Alas, no matter how they tried, about a third of the gathered forces had still escaped.

The alien army had arrived with more than 10 Gods among them. The strongest was a third-stage God. For many of the humans present, they were terrifying opponents.

A chaotic battle unfolded as battle cries filled the battleground. The human army had first lost a number of their own to the formation before suffering the alien army’s sudden attack. Thus, they were at a complete disadvantage. It was necessary for a valiant human to rise and turn the tide of the battle.

Sheng Zhengyi gladly answered the call for a hero. He aimed his Demon Revealing Mirror at an alien God, and as the mirror flickered, a powerful energy beam shot out.

“Even if there are Gods standing before me today, I’ll slaughter them all,” roared Sheng Zhengyi confidently.

“Kill. Kill to your hearts’ content!” roared Jin Jiehao of the Immortal Road Chamber as he mustered all his strength and charged ahead with the Heaven Suppressing Drum in hand.

Yue Xi of the Guangling Palace and Man Hu, the miniature giant of the Celestial Alliance, had also been able to escape the formation’s suppression. With their powerful attacks, they were also one of the strongest humans present. If even the likes of them couldn’t do anything, then this human army would be doomed to fail. Some other hidden experts also started making their moves one after another. This was the decisive battle, and they only had their strength to rely on.

Xiang Shaoyun threw all caution to the wind and unleashed all his strength as well. Charging in one direction, he said to the others, “Be sure to work together against the aliens. Do not be careless, or you will die.”

He could no longer take care of his people. With the Imperial Nether Domain, he unleashed his slaughter and killed a group of aliens.

Countless chains shot out while the nine-colored lotus suppressed all the aliens in his domain. The aliens were crushed into mincemeat before they could even put up any resistance. Xiang Shaoyun, with his Imperial Nether Domain, was unparalleled in terms of offensive strength. The aliens were naturally aware of Xiang Shaoyun’s existence. Once again, the jadeflesh demon appeared before Xiang Shaoyun with his Jade Light Ocean.

“Kid, today is the day you die,” declared the jadeflesh demon ferociously.

Xiang Shaoyun’s Imperial Nether Domain was still suppressed by the jadeflesh demon, but Xiang Shaoyun had previous experience fighting this opponent. Additionally, he had just formed a new strand of God Realm energy, and with him being a sixth-stage pseudo-God, his strength had been elevated considerably. He was having a much easier time against the jadeflesh demon.

However, the aliens seemed to have come prepared. A monstrous being with nine tentacles appeared out of nowhere. The nine tentacles extended and bound Xiang Shaoyun, who was caught unprepared. The jadeflesh demon took the opportunity to unleash the final blow against Xiang Shaoyun.

Die!
