《I Am Overlord》Chapter 1277: Casual Slaughter
Advertisement
The observing Imperial Nether Clan members could clearly see just how strong the Dark Devourer Clan was. Of the 15 princes and princesses, 2 had perished. This was a great loss. Even the surviving ones had a difficult time staying alive. The baleful blood poison was too destructive.
Sure, they could defend against the poison through numerous battle techniques, but it wasn't easy to kill even one dark devourer devil. Thus, Xiang Shaoyun's words, which were laced with disdain, stunned all of them. They all felt like he was bluffing.
Among the princes and princesses, Xiang Shaoyun had the lowest devil cultivation. Even with his impressive combat strength, he still shouldn't be so boastful. Little did they know, Xiang Shaoyun wasn't boasting. He could truly kill the Dark Devourer Clan members easily.
Xiang Shaoyun dove down and charged at the Dark Devourer Clan members. Abruptly, his body ignited with a raging inferno. As the fire wrapped around his chakram, he threw the chakram out. Instantly, the chakram arrived before a dark devourer devil.
The devil exclaimed in panic and hurriedly dodged aside. Unfortunately, he wasn't fast enough. The chakram sliced through him, sending his blood spurting in all directions.
The benefit of using the chakram was the fact that it could be controlled from afar. The raging flame wrapped around the chakram was also a great counter for the dark devourer devils. The devil was set ablaze, causing it to hurriedly retreat in pain.
With the devil's retreat, the pressure on Ming Weini dropped. She looked at Xiang Shaoyun and said, "Thank you, nineteenth prince. I'll repay you after killing this fellow."
She then fiercely counterattacked the retreating devil. Xiang Shaoyun did not bother pursuing the devil. He could sense more dark devourer devils approaching the battlefield.
"Bring it on. This only makes it easier for me to clear all of you in one go," said Xiang Shaoyun with a smirk.

After staying for more than a year in the clan, he had nearly been driven crazy by boredom. Finally, he had an avenue to let loose. He released his Imperial Nether Domain and activated countless soul marks, instantly wreaking havoc in the area with his powers of lightning and flame. The two powers of extreme yang completely cleansed the air of poison.
Yun Flame had once been fed a devilish flame, allowing it to instantly transform into a devilish flame. With Xiang Shaoyun's devilish energy, it was even easier for Yun Flame to generate devilish fire for his usage. Additionally, his lightning bone also supplied him with boundless lightning energy. With the two energies working together, he could easily clear the baleful blood poison.
These two energies were why he showed such disdain for the Dark Devourer Clan. With the baleful blood poison cleared, the other princes and princesses heaved a breath of relief. Instead of recklessly charging into their enemies, they attacked from afar. A barrage of attacks was launched to the ground as they tried to force more dark devourer devils out of hiding.
More and more dark devourer devils appeared. One of them entered Xiang Shaoyun's Imperial Nether Domain and instantly used the Devouring Eruption ability, trying to destroy the domain through self-detonation.
During his time at the clan, Xiang Shaoyun had learned a lot about the various devils from his mother, which included the Dark Devourer Clan's abilities. Thus, he was fully guarded against their abilities.
The moment the dark devourer devil self-detonated, Xiang Shaoyun shrank the Imperial Nether Domain and expelled the dark devourer devil out of his domain. A massive explosion erupted, flooding the air with baleful blood poison. Even a tiny bit of the poison could easily kill a Devil Saint.
The dark devourer devil wouldn't die just with a self-detonation. A clump of energy converged before diving into the ground. After the self-detonation, the dark devourer devil needed some time to recover and regenerate his body.

The technique was rather similar in concept to the Imperial Nether Clan's Devil Mist Dao Transformation, with a much higher recovery speed. Xiang Shaoyun naturally wouldn't allow the devil to finish reconstructing his body. A bow appeared in Xiang Shaoyun's hand. He drew the bow and unleashed the arrow at the devil.
Whoosh!
A raging flame wrapped around the arrow as it shot through the air. The arrow pierced into the devil's devil core. With an explosion, the dark devourer devil died for real. The surrounding Imperial Nether Clan members widened their eyes in astonishment.
One of them swallowed and said, "I-is this the nineteenth prince's strength? It's so terrifying."
"No, this is only half his strength. He hasn't even used his clone. Things are looking bad for the dark devourer devils," said someone else.
Xiang Shaoyun's effective attacks had fully won their acknowledgment.
They had their own trump cards, but none of them could so easily kill the dark devourer devils. Xiang Shaoyun could eliminate his enemies methodically and intelligently. They couldn't. It wasn't that they were stupid but that they hadn't spent as much effort in understanding the Dark Devourer Clan and preparing for this fight. Even as fellow devils, they had all believed that the Dark Devourer Clan had been eliminated. They viewed the Dark Devourer Clan as a failed clan of no importance.
It was a different story for Xiang Shaoyun. He knew well the importance of knowing one's enemy. On his way here, he had already pictured numerous scenarios with the Dark Devourer Clan as his enemy. With ample preparation, he was able to easily kill his opponents.
"Imperial Nether Clan, you are intolerable! All of you will die!" a voice rang out from beneath the baleful blood poison. Next, two massive bloody hands shot up and grabbed for the princes and princesses.
The terrifying attack arrived quickly and violently as though the hands were going to grab the sky itself. These hands definitely belonged to an existence beyond the Devil Saint Realm.
At this time, Ming Cigeng made his move. He had been paying close attention to the battlefield. With a flicker, he appeared before the two hands and released a Nether Yin Gate. The two hands were dragged inside. Then, a dreadfully powerful nether yin devil stepped out.
"Clear the Dark Devourer Clan survivors," commanded Ming Cigeng coldly.
At his command, the other Imperial Nether Clan members stopped spectating. They attacked together, bombarding the area with numerous powerful attacks. The Dark Devourer Clan naturally wouldn't watch on as the attacks descended upon them. They flew up together and unleashed their trump card—Devouring Eruption. A massive explosion erupted, creating countless cracks on the ground; and space itself collapsed, releasing countless energy currents. It was as though the world itself was ending.

Decompose!
Dear diary. When you read stories about some people missing and returning after years of absence claiming they were living in another world, your first reaction is to scoff and dismiss a story as a tall tale, right? I know I did. All the time. Until it happened to me and I no longer did. That day was today. Some god of thunder smote me. If it were Chris Hemsworth, I wouldn't mind but it was some barbaric Hitite god that abaondned Earth some four millennia ago. Yes, what can I say? I love the seventh art. I have more hours watching movies than any other activity, including sleep. What? Do you think I'm exaggerating? Maybe I am. I'll really miss hollywood the most. And my biggest regret is that I never got to visit the holy city of cinema. I did not come to another world to be a hero even though there was hints that they hoped I'd save it. I did not come with overpowered abilities able to, dunno, leap tall castles in a single bound, faster than a speeding crossbow bolt, be more powerful than a eight-horse carriage, the bounds. No. After the asshole god that murdered me brought me to his world, he gave me some boons from his discount bin and "The Power of my Soul (tm)". Forgive my french, I hope you understand I am rather upset at dying. And he somehow decided that my power is to recycle stuff. How awesome is that? Not much at first, I must admit. At least I got all my camping stuff and equipment with me. There's no lycra in the other world. I'll make it someday, but that day is not today. So here I am. In another world, in the middle of nowhere. I'm no heroine. As the song goes, I'm your basic average girl. And I'm assumed to be here to save the world. But almost everything can stop me, because I'm not named Kim. Wish me luck, diary. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ This novel is going have the following features: slow-paced slice-of-life No GameLit / LitRPG elements. Movie references. Sandra likes the seventh art. Journal / diary style crafting (includes chemistry, engineering and metallurgy) low magic technological advancement (for Sandra, at least. She is not against sharing though) personal relations clash of perception between the modern and ancient customs. bits of tension, fighting, and plot here and there. I won't repeat myself though. Once she crafts a good batch of soap, for example, she'll just note, "I crafted soap again." Once it is estabilished how she obtains compound X, compound X2 that is obtainable from the same process will also just be mentioned. I'll try to be as realistic as I can with the crafting, chemistry, and technology. Cover: Public Domain Image by StockSnap from Pixabay. No attribution required but we do it anyway.

Paternum: A Superhero Story
When Quinn finds an experimental superpower-granting costume in their parents’ attic, they didn’t expect to be drawn into a web of superhuman intrigue, but their discovery serves as the catalyst for that conspiracy to slowly unravel. At it’s heart, Paternum is an extended coming-of-age story for the main character as they become a superhero, in a world with more reasonable stakes and less powerful heroes than many superheroic worlds. Themes include what art means to different people, and what it means to be a patron, whether as a sponsor, a parent, or a supporter. I consider Paternum‘s primary influences to be the various versions of Spider-Man, J. C. McCrae’s own superhero story Worm, and Drew Hayes’ story SuperPowereds. I hope that fans of such stories can find something to enjoy in mine as well. Paternum is primarily hosted on my website (thevoidwrites.com) where it updates weekly in groups of scenes totalling approximately 2000 words. Here on Royal Road, it will update once daily with one scene at a time, but only after each act is completed on the home site - the next batch of updates is scheduled to begin on February 5th. There is a discord channel for discussion (discordapp.com/invite/QFMM6yA), and you can vote for Paternum on topwebfiction (topwebfiction.com/vote.php?for=paternum) as well. Finally, you can buy the first book of Paternum, The Swift Uplifting Rush, in a couple different ways - as an ebook through Amazon, or directly from me for a discounted price, or as a physical paperback from Amazon. Buying the book will give you access to Drawing Hands, an exclusive arc that won't ever be published on either my site or Royal Road.
