Chapter 394 (2/2)

Others might not know about the Overlord's Nine Nether Steps, but that was not the case for Devouring Ghost. It was a footwork created by his previous master. When powered by lightning, this footwork could reach a speed comparable to lightning and would not be any slower than those cultivating the power of wind. That was why his previous master had managed to reach the third stage of footwork intent, so close yet worlds apart.

Xiang Shaoyun kept das.h.i.+ng everywhere in the sky, his understanding of the essence of the Overlord's Nine Nether Steps increasing unceasingly. Ma.s.sive amounts of innate purple lightning converged at the two acupoints in the soles of his feet, surrounding his feet with a large amount of electrical currents that filled them with power. When using the footwork intent in such a state, he had a sensation he had turned into a gust of wind.

Is this how it feels to move like wind and lightning? Wind and lightning working together, aiming for the peak together. A new comprehension suddenly appeared in Xiang Shaoyun's mind.

He was sure that if he continued training in this manner, he would be able to push his footwork intent and Overlord's Nine Nether Steps to the peak. Suddenly, he stopped all movement, the energy around him abruptly erupting.

”The Overlord's Nine Nether Steps can not only increase one's speed, but it can also be used offensively,” Xiang Shaoyun roared before lifting his foot and taking one step forward.

Bang!

It was as if the force of the world was gathered at his feet. With one step, thunderclaps rumbled and numerous electrical currents spread outward. Around him, s.p.a.ce itself started shaking and twisting, forming a visible depression in the air, showcasing the tyrannical might of the step he had taken.

He took the second step, and as if the G.o.d of Thunder was roaring, a ma.s.sive thunderclap rumbled out. This step was even more powerful than the first. If someone was near Xiang Shaoyun at this moment, they would have probably exploded outright from the impact.

Xiang Shaoyun's aura had reached the peak at this moment. He prepared to take the third step, but he was unable to complete the step no matter what. It was as if a boundless force was trying to prevent him from doing so.

”LET—ME—GO!” Xiang Shaoyun roared. The purple and silver lightning energy around him turned into a roaring dragon, and a lightning tribulation formed in the sky.

Rumble! Rumble!

Six natural lightning bolts shot down from the sky and struck Xiang Shaoyun's body. Instead of causing him any damage, the energy of all six bolts converged at his raised foot, helping him complete the third step.

Bang!

Instantly, the s.p.a.ce within tens of meters around Xiang Shaoyun started shaking as if the sky was falling apart, filling any onlookers' hearts with fear. A ma.s.sive lightning wave spread out, destroying everything in the area.

Sphhlt!

The instant the step was completed, Xiang Shaoyun seemed to have been completely drained of energy. He coughed up a mouthful of blood and started swaying, looking like he was about to fall from the sky. Devouring Ghost, Du Xuanhao, and Jin Wo quickly rushed over.

Devouring Ghost was the first to arrive. He caught Xiang Shaoyun and asked, ”Young master, are you fine?”

Xiang Shaoyun stabilized himself, a smile forming on his pale face. ”Hehe, I'm fine. I'm doing splendidly!”
