I Am Overlord

Chapter 1641: Creation

Seven days before the end of the Heaven Battling Ranking Competition, cracks appeared on the ancient battlefield's seal. Through the cracks, Blood Spirit escaped. The God Realm expert watching over the ancient battlefield immediately detected Blood Spirit's appearance. The God was no weakling. He was a fifth-stage Rebirth Realm cultivator and should be strong enough to deal with Blood Spirit.

Alas, he was too careless and underestimated Blood Spirit, giving Blood Spirit the chance to flee into the Immortal Dynasty territory. From there, disaster befell humanity. An alien God that took humans for food had escaped the ancient battlefield. That news rapidly spread all over the Immortal Dynasty.

The dynasty immediately deployed Gods to encircle and hunt Blood Spirit down. They would not allow the walking disaster to continue roaming their territory. Unfortunately, Blood Spirit's strength caught all of them by surprise. Even after losing two of their Gods, they still didn't manage to kill Blood Spirit.

At that point, the ancient experts of the Immortal Dynasty were forced to leave their seclusion and deal with Blood Spirit. At around the same time, the Heaven Battling Ranking Competition came to an end. A year had passed. A repelling force appeared in the ancient battlefield, ejecting all the surviving Saints.

Xiang Shaoyun and his people successfully returned to the outside world. Upon their exit, they found the God in charge of watching over the ancient battlefield, and some Immortal Dynasty experts had gathered at the exit point.

"Only this many people survived? Tell us. What happened?" said Immortal Dynasty's imperial uncle impatiently.

"I'll summarize everything," offered He Changrui, the first prince of the Immortal Dynasty.

He had also survived the bloody battle. In fact, he had even managed to kill an alien God, displaying his formidable combat strength.

Just as He Changrui was about to speak, Xiang Shaoyun asked anxiously, "Has Blood Spirit entered the Immortal Dynasty?"

"Blood Spirit? Are you referring to the man-eating alien?" asked La Bu, the God in charge of watching over the ancient battlefield, with an urgent tone.

"Looks like Blood Spirit has truly escaped. This is bad news," said Xiang Shaoyun as he rubbed his forehead.

"That bastard has devoured over ten million people. I will absolutely hunt him down!" said La Bu furiously.

"He's a God Realm alien that has fused the abilities of the various races, granting him unending transformations. He also has a terrifying talent in combat. To kill him, absolute strength is required so that he can be obliterated in one move. Otherwise, he will continue to devour more victims to keep growing. Eventually, nobody will be his match," said Xiang Shaoyun solemnly.

"That's right. This might be a plan the aliens had worked on for a long time. Even during our time in the ancient battlefield, we were subjected to an intense retaliation, suffering disastrous losses," said He Changrui.

"First prince, I'll have to trouble you to update everyone about the ancient battlefield. I need to leave," said Xiang Shaoyun. He waved at Little White, then proceeded to leave.

"Kid, are you not concerned about your Heaven Battling Ranking?" asked La Bu.

"Just rank me as you wish," said Xiang Shaoyun with a wave of his hand.

He was not in the mood to care about his ranking. He had to focus on bringing Dong Ziwan back.

Everyone looked at the departing Xiang Shaoyun with astonishment in their eyes. The Heaven Battling Ranking was a goal all Saints pursued. However, Xiang Shaoyun seemed incredibly unconcerned. In that case, why even bother participating in the competition?

Xiang Shaoyun and Little White's group traveled at their top speed, eventually stopping on a random uninhabited mountain. After a short talk with Little White, Xiang Shaoyun started placing a seal around the area before releasing everyone from his astral cosmos sea.

People like Yu Caidie, Devil Concubine, Lu Xiaoqing, Lady Shura, Devouring Ghost, Liu Qingchen, Xia Liuhui, Liang Zhuangmin, and the others were still alive. However, they had all sustained serious injuries, especially Xia Liuhui and Liang Zhuangmin, who were on the brink of death.

Without the tentacled monster's protection, they would have died in the ancient battlefield. Thus, they felt very lucky to be alive. After arranging for them to recuperate by themselves, Xiang Shaoyun entered seclusion.

In a cave he dug himself, he released both Dong Ziwan's corpse and soul. Dong Ziwan's corpse was headless as her head had been crushed by Huan Xinhai. Her corpse presented a cruel sight, one that not even her own soul could look at. Fortunately, she was one who had experienced disfigurement before, so she could still bring herself together.

"Ziwan, I'll definitely find a way to perfectly resurrect you," said Xiang Shaoyun resolutely.

"Shaoyun, don't force yourself. My body is beyond repair. I'm lucky to have survived in my soul form. Let me continue existing in this form. I'll be happy so long as I can continue to stay by your side," said Dong Ziwan.

"Don't be stupid. I'll make sure you stay alive and well!" said Xiang Shaoyun with a smile. "I am someone with the strongest physique, someone who has mastered all profundities. It won't be hard for me to repair your body. Just you watch."

He then stopped wasting time talking when his soul appeared. He was going to make an attempt to control the greatest of profundities, the profundity of creation. The profundity of primal chaos had two parts to it: creation and destruction. As for the profundity of primal inception, it encompassed all profundities. Thus, he aimed to utilize the profundities of creation and life that the profundity of primal inception encompassed to breathe life into Dong Ziwan's corpse and recreate her head.

That was a feat that would shock the universe. After all, healing a destroyed corpse seemed impossible. Xiang Shaoyun himself understood how crazy his plan was, but ever since he had comprehended the dao of time to gain control over time, he had a feeling that nothing would be too crazy. Even this seemingly crazy feat was within reach.

First, he covered Dong Ziwan's corpse in primal chaos energy, preserving the corpse. Then, he activated the profundity of life, trying to breathe life into the corpse. Unfortunately, that did not seem to do anything. Without a soul, the corpse was incapable of taking in the power he was bestowing it.

"Sure enough, that failed. I need to first restore Ziwan's head and return her soul to her body before she can truly resurrect," said Xiang Shaoyun to himself as he circulated his energy and started creating a head with Dong Ziwan's appearance as a template.

He had a decent understanding of the profundity of creation, but actually creating a human head was still an incredibly difficult feat. He started working without rest, stubbornly pursuing his goal of granting Dong Ziwan a perfect resurrection. While he was busy working on an impossible project that had never been done before, the Heaven Battling Ranking Competition's result was announced.
