I Am Overlord

Chapter 458: This Is A Devil Wind Beast

Seven days later, the group finally arrived near the devil wind beast territory. This was a place where the wind raged and whistled past the trees and grasses dancing in its wake. Random pebbles were flying about, painting a scene of total chaos.

The wind here was powerful enough that if an ordinary person stood here, that person would be immediately blown away. Only sufficiently powerful cultivators would be able to stay here. Yu Caidie, Xiang Shaoyun, and the others were all Kings. Thus, they were naturally able to maintain a stable footing even as they faced the fierce wind.

As they advanced, however, they felt the wind growing stronger, and their expressions turned solemn at that realization. If they had to fight in such an environment, they would be severely disadvantaged. Among them, Ruo Suifeng was the only person with a look of excitement on his face. As someone who cultivated the power of wind, he was like a fish back in water.

"Alright. Everyone, stop advancing. The devil wind beasts have a large territory, and we are already here. If we go any deeper, we can easily get ourselves surrounded and killed. What we need to do now is to split up and look for the yin devil wind. The one to first present the yin devil wind to me will be the winner of the competition. Gather at the outer fringe of the devil wind beast territory after one month regardless of whether you have gotten the yin devil wind. Those failing to show up then will be considered to have failed the mission," said Yu Caidie.

"Sure. We should have separated long ago," Ruo Suifeng was the first to agree. Inwardly, he thought, The yin devil wind will definitely be mine. After getting my hand on it, I will be able to quickly become an Emperor.

Everyone else was here to get the yin devil wind for Yu Caidie, but nobody knew Ruo Suifeng was here to get it for himself. The other geniuses agreed. They scattered and started their search for the yin devil wind.

Tang Longfei extended Xiang Shaoyun an invitation, "Xiang Shaoyun, let's travel together."

After seven days of rest, Xiang Shaoyun still looked to be in bad shape. Tang Longfei was obviously looking out for him by extending this invitation. However, Xiang Shaoyun shook his head. "Thank you for the offer, Brother Tang, but I won't be going in there for now. Good luck and try your best."

Whatever the reason Tang Longfei had to help him, he still felt grateful. He couldn't allow himself to be a baggage at a time like this. Tang Longfei could see that Xiang Shaoyun had made up his mind, and he did not insist. He flew away alone.

Yu Caidie looked at Xiang Shaoyun and said, "Take care."

She then flew away with her phoenix mount. Soon, only Huo Xudong was left by Xiang Shaoyun's side.

He asked, "Brother Xiang, you really don't need my help?"

Xiang Shaoyun smiled. "No. I wish you luck in your search, Brother Huo."

During this trip, Huo Xudong was the one who had been the closest to him, and Xiang Shaoyun already considered him his friend.

Huo Xudong patted his shoulder and said, "Ok. I'll be going ahead, then. Be careful alone."

And with Huo Xudong leaving, Xiang Shaoyun was left alone.

Should I start moving, or should I start repairing my foundation? Xiang Shaoyun sank into thought.

He was confident the yin devil wind wouldn't be found anytime soon. He still had some time to recover. However, he was also worried that he would only end up failing to repair his foundation and had instead wasted the valuable time he could have used to search for the yin devil wind.

He was currently very distressed. In his current condition, he had no idea how long it would take to fully recover. But if he forced himself to enter the devil wind beast territory, he wouldn't be a match to the devil wind beasts and the trip might be tantamount to suicide.

While he was hesitating, a figure flashed past not far ahead of him. The figure moved at a rapid speed, as if it had become one with wind, barely noticeable to the naked eye. Money reacted quickly and with a cry, he shot toward the figure like a lightning bolt.

Swoosh! Swoosh!

A piercing sound of wind rang out, and when Xiang Shaoyun focused, he found that this was not the sound of wind. Rather, this was the cry of a certain devilish beast. His pupils shrank as he focused his eyes on the figure. He cried out in alarm, "This is a devil wind beast!"

The devil wind beasts were a type of devilish beast that survived through consuming the power of wind. Each of them had a large head and an enormous mouth that seemed capable of swallowing everything and unleashing massive wind attacks. Its body was akin to that of a worm, its skin glossy and sleek. And a tiny pair of fleshy wings was on its back, similarly capable of unleashing powerful wind attacks.

This particular devil wind beast did not seem too strong, as it was currently being ripped apart by Money. Even so, Xiang Shaoyun could clearly sense how terrifyingly fast this devil wind beast was. If it wasn't for the fact that Money himself was also extremely fast, catching this devil wind beast would be extremely hard.

Before long, Money tossed the corpse of the devil wind beast in front of Xiang Shaoyun. Xiang Shaoyun retrieved the devil core from the devil wind beast. Holding the core in his hand, he could sense the power of wind within it.

"The so-called yin devil wind is actually an eye of a storm of sorts. With the yin devil wind, one's speed will be enhanced by several times. For a cultivator of wind, getting the yin devil wind is akin to getting a pair of wings. Caidie seems to cultivate the power of flame. Why is she looking for the yin devil wind then? Is she purely looking to enhance her speed? Or does she cultivate the power of wind as well?" Xiang Shaoyun muttered.

He was somewhat bewildered, but he couldn't be bothered to think too much about it. For now, he should focus on himself. Suddenly, he seemed to have sensed something as he shouted in a certain direction, "Who is hiding there? Show yourself!"

As he said that, he stabbed forth with his finger and sent a beam shooting toward the direction he was shouting at. He did not put much power behind the attack. He only wanted to get that person to show himself.

"Haha, even in such a shape, your senses are still so sharp. What a surprise," a crisp laugh rang out as one person and one mount appeared before Xiang Shaoyun.

The newcomer was none other than Xiang Shaoyun's nemesis, Su Jun. He was dressed in a brilliant gold outfit and was emitting an imposing aura, looking incredibly dazzling. Even his mount was currently radiating a golden radiance. It was obvious he had come prepared.

"Su Jun, you still have the guts to show your face?" Xiang Shaoyun said with a frown.

"If you are in your optimal condition, I will definitely avoid you. But look at how you are now. You are much weaker than your previous self. If I don't kill you, I won't be able to sleep well in the future. Just die already," said Su Jun. He drew his Golden Dragon Sword and sent a golden sword energy shooting toward Xiang Shaoyun.

Before Xiang Shaoyun could do anything, Money appeared in front of him to defend him, and he spat a bolt of silver lighting toward the sword attack.

Rumble!

The powerful sword attack slashed the silver lightning bolt into two before continuing on toward Money. With a roar, Money moved to the side with the speed of lightning and dodged the attack.

"Leopard, rip him apart," commanded Su Jun as he patted his mount's head.
