I Am Overlord - Chapter 395

Chapter 395: Bloodsin City

Xiang Shaoyun had completely exhausted his lightning energy and had even suffered some energy backlash, yet he was still laughing . Both Du Xuanhao and Jin Wo were confused .

Only Devouring Ghost understood what Xiang Shaoyun meant . He laughed and bowed, "Congratulations, young master, for comprehending the true essence of the Overlord's Nine Nether Steps . "

Xiang Shaoyun laughed, "Yes . After cultivating the Overlord's Nine Nether Steps for so long, I have finally understood its essence . This is also my first time using it in this way . The result is excellent . "

"Of course the result will be excellent . This is the best footwork the previous master had used his entire life to create . But it is still too hard for you to use it, young master . Your current cultivation realm is not enough . The first two steps are sufficient for now . You need a few more breakthroughs before you can properly make use of the third step," said Devouring Ghost .

Xiang Shaoyun nodded . "Don't worry . I will watch out the next time I use it . "

He then climbed onto Jin Wo's back and sat down in meditation to recuperate . They continued heading toward the Bloodsin City .

Three months passed . During the three months, Xiang Shaoyun had consolidated his gains in footwork intent . He had also further familiarized himself with the Overlord's Nine Nether Steps and was now much faster than he was before .

Apart from that, he had also accumulated a sizable amount of nine-colored fog in his astral cosmos sea . The spiritual herbs he had planted there had also undergone some transformation .

The herbs that were initially low-grade spirit medicines had suddenly turned into mid-grade spirit medicines . Furthermore, their medicinal power seemed to be much stronger than regular herbs of the same grade .

Their change caused Xiang Shaoyun to place even more importance on the nine-colored fog . It was a power of destruction and a power of life . It might also contain some other powers waiting for him to discover .

As for the horned lightning snake, he was living a good and comfortable life in the astral cosmos sea amid the nine-colored fog . Even when Xiang Shaoyun called him out to take a breather at the outside world, he refused .

Xiang Shaoyun could no longer be bothered about him anymore .

On his travels, Xiang Shaoyun experienced and witnessed numerous local traditions and customs of the various places he passed . He had also encountered numerous powerful demonic beasts and bandits trying to intercept his group .

They were able to smash their way through all obstacles with pure strength . That was how Jin Wo had gotten the demonic core of a fourth-stage Demon Emperor cultivating the gold element . He had swallowed the core and was now nearing the third-stage Demon Emperor realm .

As for Devouring Ghost, he had started cultivating again . By making use of the time return grass, he erased the light elemental energy from four of his stars and filled them with dark elemental energy instead . As for the other three stars, he kept the light elemental energy there .

He was planning to go beyond his original realm, cultivate two elements, and achieve the power of yin and yang . As a side effect of using the time return grass, his cultivation level had dropped to fourth-stage Dragon Ascension Realm, but with the large quantity of spirit crystals and dark elemental herbs, he soon recovered much of his cultivation base .

But he would still need about a year before he could return to eighth-stage Dragon Ascension Realm . That would also be when he would finally achieve perfect fusion with his body .

However, he would be able to find some items capable of expediting the speed in which he regained his strength at the Bloodsin City . He had also been channeling his will into the blood egg every single day and had occasionally fed it his blood essence .

After three months of doing so, he was able to sense that some changes had occurred in the blood egg . The blood demon inside would be able to come out after being fed enough blood .

Devouring Ghost had been taking it slow for fear that the blood demon would be disobedient in the future . Otherwise, he would have been able to hatch the egg with the blood of all the Demon Emperors they had killed along the way .

He was planning to wait until he reached eighth-stage Dragon Ascension Realm before releasing the blood demon into the world . At that time, he would possess sufficient strength to both control and raise the blood demon .

Everything was progressing smoothly, and finally, they arrived near the outskirts of the Bloodsin City . There were five Bloodsin Cities in existence . They were respectively located at the Eastern Pass, Western Desert, Northern Border, Southern Wasteland, and the Central Region .

Each Bloodsin City was the same: essentially a place where numerous wanted criminals, killers, and banished individuals gathered . In a sense these people represented evil, bloodthirst, and chaos .

One could say that there was no kind soul to be found in any of the Bloodsin Cities . All of them were cold-blooded killers . They were either there to hide from the pursuit of their enemies, because they were addicted to killing, or simply because they had been banished by some powerful organization .

In short, the Bloodsin City was a city of strife . Within the city, one could kill and rape as one wished . There were no rules whatsoever, and the only way of survival was through killing . Apart from that, the five cities also served a different purpose: devil suppression .

All five of the cities were built at the entrance to the Devil Domain where numerous blood-thirsty devils resided . The devils resided beneath the dominion and had waged endless wars against the surface races since the ancient times .

The devils wanted to enter the surface through the five exits and conquer more land for themselves, but the surface races would naturally not allow that . Thus, the five cities were built for devil suppression . They were also known as the Five Devil Suppressing Cities .

It was rumored that during the ancient times, the surface's supreme experts had forcefully pushed the devils underground . In fact, during the ancient times, the devils had invaded and started a period known as the Dark Age . At that time, the devils had nearly turned the entire world into a world of devils .

Fortunately, numerous heroes had risen amid the chaos and pushed the devils back to the Devil Domain . Xiang Shaoyun had learned all that from Devouring Ghost, and he had also finally learned what he was supposed to do at the Bloodsin City .

There, he would forge his own path to the Emperor and Sovereign Realms through battle . Only in such a chaotic land of slaughter would a person's potential be squeezed out, turning one into an overlord . That was also one of the fastest methods a cultivator could grow .

As they were nearing the Bloodsin City, Devouring Ghost was growing more excited . He said, "Young master, numerous evil criminals from the Western Desert are gathered at the Bloodsin City . There will also be numerous geniuses from the various organizations there to temper themselves . They are all people with talent and combat prowess surpassing their peers . Are you ready for it?"

Xiang Shaoyun answered confidently, "Even if this is hell, I will still go . I have no fear . "

"Haha, that's right! I believe you will definitely become an overlord of slaughter and rise into the Emperor Realm," said Devouring Ghost as he laughed heartily . He looked at Du Xuanhao and said, "When we arrive, you will need to head into the Devil Domain . I guarantee you that your combat prowess will multiply several times over if you can survive for at least three years . At that time, I will take you to search for the Saber Devil's inheritance . But if you can't even survive for three years, it can only mean that you are not qualified to obtain his inheritance . "

"I will do just that, Lord Devouring Ghost," said Du Xuanhao resolutely .

Suddenly, a group of decently powerful people blocked their path to the Bloodsin City .
