I Am Overlord

Chapter 836: Profundity of Wood



Chapter 836: Profundity of Wood

Xiang Shaoyun had been fully focused on comprehending the profundity of wood, so he had not noticed anything that was happening outside the cave. If it wasn\'t for Money\'s warning shout, he wouldn\'t have noticed anything.

He kept the tiny tree away and left the cave. He saw about a dozen people ganging up on Money. The three birds were completely looked down upon, but the three were also seriously injured to the point they could barely move. If it wasn\'t for Money protecting them, they would have died by now.

Looking at those people, Xiang Shaoyun found that he did not know any of them. Without any hesitation, he charged out and yelled, "You\'re courting death! You dare to harm my brothers?"

Without wasting any time speaking nonsense with them, Xiang Shaoyun rushed them with a quick footwork and blasted them with his merciless punches. They had just seen that the newcomer was Xiang Shaoyun and couldn\'t even react before three of them were sent flying.

"It\'s Xiang Shaoyun! Stop! We\'re members of Crushing Sky!" one of them cried out in alarm.

"I don\'t care who you are. You dare harm my brothers, so you will die," said Xiang Shaoyun. He continued attacking and sent two more people flying away while spitting blood.

"Leave, the leader will avenge us!" shouted the leader.

They started fleeing in a disorderly fashion. Those failing to escape were forced to crush their protective jades and leave the battleground entirely. If they reacted any slower, Xiang Shaoyun might have directly killed them.

Xiang Shaoyun intended to give chase, but after some hesitation, he decided against it. He wasn\'t afraid of Zhan Wushuang since he also looked forward to fighting Zhan Wushuang. He was already a sixth-stage Dragon Ascension Realm cultivator. With his combat prowess, he could surpass any Emperor. Coupled with the might of his Nether Soul Domain, he did not fear Zhan Wushuang.

He did not give chase because Money\'s injuries weren\'t too serious and the three birds needed urgent care. There was no point wasting time chasing after those people. When he took a look at the three birds\' injuries, he found that their injuries were rather heavy, further infuriating him.

He said, "Regardless of whether the Crushing Sky people did this intentionally, I won\'t spare them."

Xiang Shaoyun was about to feed them some spring water when he recalled that he had already comprehended the profundity of wood. It was time to put it to the test. He placed both his palms on Vicious One\'s wound and started gathering the wood energy around them. With the profundity of wood, he started applying the wood energy to Vicious One\'s wound.

Vicious One felt much better, and soon, his wound started closing up.

"Sure enough, the power of wood represents life and works well in healing. However, it is somewhat weak in terms of attack," muttered Xiang Shaoyun.

Very few people could use the power of wood to heal others. Most could only use it to hasten their own recovery. To do what Xiang Shaoyun just did, one needed to comprehend the profundity of wood. Otherwise, one wouldn\'t be able to do it even if one was highly skilled at manipulating the power of wood.

Xiang Shaoyun applied healing to all three birds, greatly alleviating their injuries before feeding them some spring water to further hasten their recovery. Two days later, the three were able to once again spread their wings and soar in the sky.

Xiang Shaoyun couldn\'t help lamenting the effectiveness of the power of wood in terms of healing. He also rejoiced that he had such power under his control now.

Even after comprehending the profundity of wood, he still didn\'t plan to go out hunting for the devilish plants. He remained there to cultivate in peace. This time, he would focus on using all nine profundities at the same time and test his energy absorption speed and see if it could reach a decent level.

The wood energy was the thickest in the Forest of Antiquity, but that did not mean that there were no other energies. Xiang Shaoyun could still absorb other energies, but the absorption speed wouldn\'t be as fast as when he was absorbing wood energy.

After repeated attempts, he was able to increase his absorption speed, but he failed to absorb all nine energies at the same time. Perhaps he had to fuse all nine profundities, creating a brand new and unique profundity, before he could accomplish it.

In the past, he never thought of fusing the profundities. But the vague idea in his mind seemed to turn more and more distinct as if he really could do so. He had a feeling this would be the secret of solving the biggest issue of cultivating nine powers.

His inspiration came from the Light of Wisdom, but fully solving the issue would still be exceedingly difficult. For now, he already had a general idea of what he should do. First, he needed to fuse the profundities of the five main elements. Only then would he start working on fusing the other four powers.

Even so, fusing the five main elements wasn\'t an easy feat. After repeated attempts, he made no progress and was forced to stop for now. A month after entering the battleground, Xiang Shaoyun finally started his hunt.

During the hunt, he obtained decent gains, and there were many unharvested treasures in the forest. So long as one was strong enough, one would be able to obtain them.

Money managed to become a fifth-stage Demon Emperor. He wasn\'t originally in a rush to break through, but after being injured by the Crushing Sky people, he was furious and broke through two stages in a row.

Xiang Shaoyun had a feeling Money was still hiding a lot of his strength. Perhaps he had yet to even fully digest the dragon bone.

While hunting, Xiang Shaoyun also encountered many academy disciples. However, he had not met any Overlord Legion members. Thus, he felt somewhat gloomy, as he was worried about them.

But when he recalled how they would be mostly safe with the protective jades, his worries were alleviated.

One day, he suddenly heard a familiar voice while traveling, "You bastards! Don\'t push it, or the Overlord Legion will not spare you!"

Xiang Shaoyun had a good memory, and he immediately recognized that the voice belonged to Pan Yun, an Overlord Legion member. It seemed he had encountered trouble.

"Haha, the Overlord Legion is targeted to be cleaned from the battleground. If you\'re smart, crush your protective jades and leave. Otherwise, you\'ll suffer," came a different voice, followed by a series of arrogant laughter.
