Chapter 1357: Nether Yin Devil Appears

Although Xiang Shaoyun’s clone was only at fourth-stage Saint Realm, its foundations were far sturdier than anyone else’s. His clone could easily match peak Saints. As a peak Great Saint, each move of Di Ganning’s carried great power. His every attack was akin to a natural disaster, yet he was unable to do anything to Xiang Shaoyun’s clone.

With second-stage footwork intent and wind energy, Xiang Shaoyun’s clone became one with the wind, drifting about incessantly. As it battled Di Ganning intensely, it constantly attacked its opponents from tricky angles with its chakram.

With only one energy, Xiang Shaoyun was unable to match Di Ganning. Thus, his clone utilized two and even three energies. Even so, he still wasn’t able to obtain any advantage in the fight.

The longer the fight dragged on, the more annoyed Di Ganning became. His cultivation was clearly higher, yet he couldn’t do anything to Xiang Shaoyun. Eventually, he was so angered that he decided to use his full strength. At this time, a figure suddenly charged into the battlefield and attacked Xiang Shaoyun’s clone. That person had appeared out of nowhere. With Xiang Shaoyun’s clone focused on Di Ganning, Xiang Shaoyun detected the sneak attack too late and couldn’t escape in time.

Pu!

The clone’s waist was stabbed by a sword, causing its soul power to momentarily stiffen and its blood to spill. This was a corporeal clone formed with a filthless soul and clone-forging materials. It was basically the same as a real body. Thus, it was naturally affected by its injuries as well.

“Kill!” The newcomer pressed on with more attacks.

As though he only existed under the dark curtain of night, the newcomer was completely clad in black, revealing his eyes and nose. His attacks carried the power of dark energy. He was a Great Saint, his assassination capabilities dreadful.

Xiang Shaoyun was confident this was a Great Saint from the Rat Assassins. Only someone from the Rat Assassins would be so proficient in terms of sneak attacking. Due to their repeated failures in assassinating Xiang Shaoyun, the Rat Assassins had suffered great damage to their reputation. They wanted to take this opportunity to finish the job. Only then would they be able to regain their reputation.

Di Ganning was naturally happy to see a helper. He worked with the assassin against Xiang Shaoyun, sending out an energy blast that tore through space and headed straight for Xiang Shaoyun’s vitals. Who could survive the pincer attack of two Great Saints?

Xiang Shaoyun also sensed the crisis he was in. His clone roared furiously, “Today, I’ll let you witness my strength as a devil!”

If he kept hiding his strength, he would probably end up dead. He might as well throw all caution to the wind and decide what to do after killing all these people. As the clone brandished its arms, a Nether Yin Gate appeared. A powerful suction force appeared and absorbed the attacks of Di Ganning and the assassin.

Next, a terrifying baleful aura rippled out of the Nether Yin Gate as four terrifying devils stepped out of it. The nether yin devil had appeared! All four of the nether yin devils were Great Saints. Along with Xiang Shaoyun’s growth, the number and strength of nether yin devils he could summon had grown as well. Summoning such number and quality of nether yin devils was a feat enough to shock even the Imperial Nether Clan.

A regular imperial nether devil would be considered impressive even if they could summon only one nether yin devil. Generally, only Devil Gods with powerful bloodlines could summon such a number of nether yin devils.

“Devil! He really is a devil!” someone exclaimed in alarm.

“What devils are those? They’re so terrifying. He’s actually capable of summoning them? Is he really planning to kill all of us?”

“Are those the legendary nether yin devils? Those devils are no pushovers. This terrifying young man is actually a devil? What a misfortune for the dominion!”

“Everyone, attack together. If we can’t kill him, all of us will probably die here.”

“His combat strength has reached the level of a peak Great Saint. How can we fight him? Get the elders to fight him instead.”

…

The Nether Yin Gate caused great chaos among the crowd. As for those close to Xiang Shaoyun, they were in complete disbelief, all of them stunned in shock.

“Young miss, I’m going to slaughter those devils,” said the Great Saint by Devil Concubine’s side before charging in Xiang Shaoyun’s direction.

Devil Concubine opened her mouth, wanting to say something yet couldn’t find anything to say. Three people appeared out of thin air. Two of them were male, while one was female. All three were incredibly old, but each was a Great Saint. They were guardians of some of the cultivators present.

“Since he can summon nether yin devils at such a young age, he’s probably an Imperial Nether Clan prince. We must kill him,” said an old Great Saint with yellow hair.

“What are you waiting for? If you were waiting, those two friends there won’t be able to last long,” said an old Great Saint with only one eye.

While the two were speaking, the female Great Saint charged the nether yin devils. The nether yin devils were living beings of a different realm with strength beyond anyone’s imagination. Di Ganning and the assassin were badly battered, incapable of posing any further threat to Xiang Shaoyun.

If this continued, they would definitely die. Fortunately, four Great Saints suddenly joined the battlefield and reduced the pressure on them. But when they tried searching for Xiang Shaoyun’s clone again, they found that the clone had vanished.

Since they couldn’t find Xiang Shaoyun’s clone, their only choice was to deal with the nether yin devils. At this time, the clone had concealed itself and was heading toward Xiang Shaoyun’s main body.

His blood-soaked robe wouldn’t stay active for long. Yu Huayan was an extremely tricky opponent. He wasn’t able to defeat her quickly, so he could only retrieve his soul and find a way to escape. He did not want to die so easily. He still had his parents, his women, and his child. He still needed to realize his ambitions of ruling over large swathes of land.

“Invisibility? Before my Heavenly Eye, don’t even dream of escaping! Die!” shouted the one-eyed Great Saint as he launched an attack at the escaping clone.

The one-eyed clone had actually cultivated the Heavenly Eye. After a short search, he discovered the clone. The clone tried its very best to approach the main body. Xiang Shaoyun’s plan was to use the last bit of strength the blood-soaked robe had to forge a path of blood out of this encirclement.

However, the one-eyed Great Saint was unwilling to spare Xiang Shaoyun. With his Heavenly Eye, he shot a beam of light at Xiang Shaoyun’s clone, making it impossible for the clone to keep hiding.
