I Am Overlord

Chapter 1683: With Ability Comes Courage

Xiang Shaoyun stored both divine sources in his astral cosmos sea because he wasn’t planning on staying any longer.
He intended to take his time and slowly absorb the two divine sources, pursuing his advancement smoothly and naturally.
There was no need to rush the advancement.

After all, if he advanced too rapidly, he would only hinder his own progress in comprehending the profundities of the God Realm.
Xiang Shaoyun naturally wouldn’t damage anything in the mausoleum after retrieving the two divine sources.
Even though there were other god-grade objects there, he did not want to maximize his gains in such a manner.
He would leave those objects for the Dusk Dynasty, hoping that they would be able to create even more divine sources in the future.

“It’s time to release the Divine Dusk Truncheon to the world,” said Xiang Shaoyun after glancing at the truncheon.
He then flicked the blood given by Huang Baiwu toward the truncheon.

The moment the blood touched the truncheon, a divine radiance erupted from the weapon, filling the entire mausoleum with a blinding light.
Draconic roars filled the air as though a flaming dragon was awakening in the mausoleum.

Outside the imperial palace, Huang Baiwu was able to sense something, and an expression of rapt joy covered his face.
“The Divine Dusk Truncheon has been awakened! Please return and help us exterminate these devils!”

Whoosh!

In the mausoleum, the Divine Dusk Truncheon heard the summons and immediately flew out, as though it was actually sentient.
It sliced through space itself as it traveled toward Huang Baiwu.

Xiang Shaoyun did not choose to leave immediately, as he had to wait until the devils relaxed their vigilance.
In any case, he also wanted to take some time to study the Divine Source Formation.
If he could learn to lay out the same foundation, it would be incredible.

From the altar before the memorial tablets, he found the sole copy of the formation.
He opened the book, intending to study it carefully.
The Divine Source Formation was a lost formation.
It was not an offensive or defensive formation.
Its sole function was to combine God Realm energy and god crystals to create a crystal of high purity that could help any Rebirth Realm cultivator increase their strength.

This was an amazing formation.
As long as one had God Realm energy and god crystals, one would be able to produce an unending supply of divine sources.
With the sources, one would be able to improve rapidly.

Xiang Shaoyun activated his Light of Wisdom without any hesitation as he studied the formation.
With the light and his mastery over formations, he was able to quickly figure out how the formation worked.

“The Divine Source Formation can purify any Rebirth Realm energy and transform the energy into pure God Realm energy, which it then uses to form a divine source in order to preserve the pure energy,” muttered Xiang Shaoyun in excitement.

He then shut the book.
He did not intend to take the book out, as he already had everything memorized.
After returning to the Ziling Sect, he would be able to lay out the same formation.
Then, he only needed to have the Gods of the sect periodically feed the formation with energy to start producing their own divine sources.

After calculating the time, Xiang Shaoyun noted that three days had passed.
It was time for him to leave.
He did the same thing and turned invisible before leaving.
He naturally didn’t dare to leave openly.

He returned to the courtyard and found that the place had been flattened.
Fortunately, the formation leading into the secret place had not been destroyed, or he would probably have found himself trapped with no way out.

He wasted no time and moved away as quickly as he could.
At the same time, he slowly absorbed the divine sources in his astral cosmos sea bit by bit.
His cultivation grew without stopping.
On his way back to the Saintly Forest Courtyard, he sensed an intense battle high in the sky.
After some hesitation, he flew into the sky, curious to see who the combatants were.

High in the sky, he found that the Dusk Dynasty’s emperor emeritus was fighting against the peak eighth-stage Devil God diabolic dragon with the Divine Dusk Truncheon.
As for Huang Baiwu, he was fighting several Devil Gods alongside several Gods.
All in all, the sky had been transformed into a chaotic battleground.

He also saw Little Azure and Little White in the fight, facing Devil Gods that were even stronger than them.

With the Divine Dusk Truncheon in his hand, the emperor emeritus fought valiantly.
Even though he hadn’t recovered to his peak condition, he was still able to unleash a great amount of strength to fight the diabolic dragon to a standstill.

The diabolic dragons were one of the supreme devil races, and they could barely find any opponents among those of the same cultivation level.
Thus, it was actually very impressive of the emperor emeritus to be able to fight the diabolic dragon evenly.

Fortunately, we already have the Divine Dusk Truncheon.
Otherwise, I wouldn’t be this diabolic dragon’s match.
Even if I have to risk my life, I have to deal him some actual injuries today, thought the emperor emeritus.

The diabolic dragon hadn’t been able to put all his focus on the fight, as he was still watching out for the concealed enemy from days ago.
He kept having a feeling that a human was hiding among them, which gave him a sense of unease.

Nevertheless, the devils still held the upper hand in the battle, as they had three seventh-stage Devil Gods among them, whereas the Saintly Forest Courtyard only had two seventh-stage Gods on their side.

The actual master of the Saintly Forest Courtyard had been in seclusion for many years, and he had remained in seclusion even after the devils invaded.
If the old master was actually around, he would be strong enough to end the invasion on behalf of humanity.
After all, that old master was someone almost comparable to the dominion’s legendary nine powerhouses.

Xiang Shaoyun naturally wouldn’t idle around as everyone fought.
After scanning his surroundings, he focused his gaze on the strongest diabolic dragon present.
He muttered, “To defeat a group of enemies, I need to first get their leader.
If I can seriously injure that diabolic dragon, I can probably increase the morale of those on our side.”

After coming to a decision, Xiang Shaoyun released his soul clone and sent it toward the battle between the emperor emeritus and the diabolic dragon.
That was a battle between two top-tier Gods, and regular Gods would get as far as they could from a battle of such a level.
For Xiang Shaoyun to dare interfere in such a battle probably proved that ability and courage came hand in hand.

Xiang Shaoyun was in no rush to attack.
He kept his presence hidden as he waited for the best opportunity to attack.

The emperor emeritus fought fiercely.
The Divine Dusk Truncheon in his hands shone like a bright sun.
Numerous rays emanated from the truncheon as though countless dragons were flailing about, spreading massive destruction and reducing anything around them into nothingness.

The diabolic dragon had transformed back into his true form.
His 10,000-meter-long body was incomparably powerful, emitting a large amount of baleful energy into his surroundings with every move.
His limbs, torso, and tail were akin to weapons that could not only block the emperor emeritus’s attacks but could also counterattack.

“Nationless humans, you have successfully angered me.
I will reduce you to ashes,” roared the diabolic dragon before soaring into the sky.
A large amount of evil energy gathered to form an evil cloud, and as the diabolic dragon opened his jaws, numerous evil clouds spread in all directions.

Space Consuming Evil Cloud!

Instantly, the area was corroded into nothingness.
Not even the emperor emeritus’s flame energy could damage the evil clouds.
The clouds rapidly surrounded the emperor emeritus.
Once the process was completed, even the emperor emeritus would not be able to escape death.
It was at that moment that Xiang Shaoyun made his move.
