I Am Overlord

Chapter 1584: Versus Immortal Road Chamber's Immortal Child

The profundity of water was gentle and unending. Capable of being soft and hard at the same time, it embodied the dao of tai chi. After several years of cultivating in seclusion, Xiang Shaoyun had long deepened his comprehension of the profundity of water. The energy he unleashed was like an unending torrent that crushed through the 100 water jiaos before proceeding toward Lan Shenyong. As the river of water advanced, even space seemed to be repelled by the sheer might of the river.

Lan Shenyong knew that Xiang Shaoyun was a cultivator of nine powers. Hence, he wasn't surprised to see Xiang Shaoyun utilize the power of water. A smile formed on his face as he brandished his arms, releasing a soft power that bounced Xiang Shaoyun's attack back.

Lan Shenyong owned the Innate Water Star Physique. Thus, his comprehension of the profundity of water was comparable with Xiang Shaoyun's. With his mastery over water, he did not mind competing against Xiang Shaoyun in terms of water manipulation.

Two attacks powered by the profundity of water collided, causing the space above the ring to twist and warp. The sheer impact of the collision pressured the space so much that a succession of explosions erupted in the air. Countless spatial currents appeared for a split second before they too were reduced into nothingness. The victor of this collision would also be the one with the advantage in this fight.

"Xiang Shaoyun, today, I'll let you know that with this little strength you have, you're nothing to me," said Lan Shenyong. He changed to a different technique and formed a water clone that charged toward Xiang Shaoyun.

Water Clone!

The clone was one of Lan Shenyong's trump cards. He could form a clone with his water energy and catch his opponent by complete surprise. Even Xiang Shaoyun was momentarily stunned as he had not seen that coming.

Fortunately, the clone's speed was nothing for him. Xiang Shaoyun was able to see its every single move with clear clarity. Without a change in his expression, his aura turned frosty. Instantly, snowflakes condensed midair as the water energy around him turned into sparkling icy crystals. Even the two colliding water attacks were rapidly freezing over. As for the charging clone, it became slower and slower as it slowly froze. By the time it reached Xiang Shaoyun, it had turned into an ice statue.

"Profundity of ice!" Lan Shenyong cried out in alarm as his pupils shrank.

"Explode!" Xiang Shaoyun called out with a sneer as all the ice exploded.

Boom!

Countless ice crystals exploded, forcing Lan Shenyong to rapidly retreat from the massive impact. A barrier formed around him to protect him from the explosion, but the barrier did not seem sufficient. Ice energy continued gathering around him as a layer of frost covered his legs and spread to the rest of his body. Eventually, he turned into an ice statue as well.

The crowd was greatly shocked. Lan Shenyong's clone was an extremely powerful technique, but Xiang Shaoyun had changed the situation around incredibly quickly. None of them could have done better in the same situation.

As Xiang Shaoyun drew a large amount of astral energy from his body, the temperature on the ring continued dropping. Layer upon layer of frost formed on Lan Shenyong's body. He had a feeling this opponent wouldn't be defeated so easily. Sure enough, as the frozen Lan Shenyong continued compressing his astral energy, a phantom appeared behind him, taking the form of a massive whale.

Turning Whale!

He had probably refined the blood of a whale-type beast before. He wouldn't have been able to display such a powerful whale-type ability otherwise. The countless layers of ice formed by Xiang Shaoyun were all crushed by the whale.

World Devouring Whale!

Lan Shenyong himself transformed into a massive whale while his astral energy formed a terrifying suction force that enveloped Xiang Shaoyun, trying to forcefully drag Xiang Shaoyun into his mouth before crushing Xiang Shaoyun into pieces.

As the suction force erupted, Xiang Shaoyun was pulled forward, looking like he was completely helpless. Just as he was about to reach the massive mouth of the blue whale, he formed a hand sign and manifested an ice spear before stabbing at Lan Shenyong's mouth.

Iceform Spike!

Xiang Shaoyun released about 70 percent of his strength and erupted with a large amount of astral energy. Not even a regular pseudo-God would be able to resist an attack of this level. The ice spear stabbed into the whale's mouth and started wreaking destruction as ice crystals sprayed everywhere in the mouth.

With a heavy stomp on the ground, Xiang Shaoyun soared into the air and sent a kick at Lan Shenyong. Each move of his was powered by ice and water. With his exquisite mastery over the profundities of ice and water, Lan Shenyong was forced to defend himself with all his strength.

Furious Whale Charge!

Lan Shenyong changed his technique yet again as he swung both his fists, sending a massive blue whale crashing forth with an unimaginably overbearing force.

Boom!

The two attacks collided, creating a loud rumble while the space above the ring collapsed into a void. Even a fifth-stage pseudo-God would have a hard time against either of these attacks. When the dust settled, a figure could be seen flying away while coughing blood. He was none other than Lan Shenyong.

As for Xiang Shaoyun, he stood there expressionlessly and said, "If this is all you have, you might as well leave the ring."

Lan Shenyong got back on his feet and wiped the blood off the corner of his mouth. A blue halberd appeared in his hand. A divine aura hovered around it, making it clear that the halberd was no ordinary weapon.

At the same time, his aura surged as layer upon layer of scales covered his body. His height increased while a ferocious expression appeared on his face as he said, "Xiang Shaoyun, you should be proud since you've managed to force me to use my trump card."

He then swung his halberd, flooding the ring with numerous balls of water that then exploded. That attack had reached the might of a ninth-stage pseudo-God. Even a regular God would have to be careful against an attack of this level.

"Looks like this is your limit. Time to end this, then," said Xiang Shaoyun with a disappointed look. He waved his arms and unleashed a boundless power from his palms. The unstoppable force crushed Lan Shenyong's attack and caused even the ring to shake. The sight of the shaking ring greatly shocked the surrounding crowd.

"Is this really the strength of a Great Saint?" Everyone had the same question.

Great Saints might be strong, but few Great Saints could unleash such a might. The two attacks collided for a short while before the victor was decided. Several palm prints were visible on Lan Shenyong's body. Even his pseudo-god armor had been destroyed when he was sent flying out from the ring.
