I Am Overlord

Chapter 1477: Huang Tian of the Nine Supreme Beings

The prowess of Purple Lightning Marquis shocked both Mo Yue and He Chenyu. They had not imagined that a nameless person like him would have such valiant strength.

The Second Nether Monarch snorted coldly, "You\'re courting death!"

Then, a palm manifested and shot toward Purple Lightning Marquis. However, Purple Lightning Marquis showed no fear. He raised his spear and thrust it forward as though he was going to pierce through the sky itself.

Purple Lightning Marquis had always been an incredibly talented cultivator. Ten thousand years ago, he was the Overlord\'s most talented follower. He was much more talented than the likes of Scarlet Flame Monarch, Devouring Ghost, and the others, as he was the owner of an Innate Lightning Physique.

When the Overlord was killed, he was already a peak pseudo-God Realm cultivator possessing the strength to slay Gods. Within the last 10,000 years, he had explored numerous dangerous locations outside the domain, eventually reaching the Rebirth Realm and obtaining a combat strength equivalent to that of a peak Rebirth Realm cultivator.

The palm and the lightning spear collided. The palm managed to gain the upper hand, pushing the spear back and causing Purple Lightning Marquis to start falling from the sky while coughing blood.

The Second Nether Monarch was one of the strongest existences among the Imperial Nether Clan. Even when he was only using 30 percent of his strength, he was still far stronger than average Gods. In fact, Purple Lightning Marquis was already incredibly impressive to survive after taking on his attack head on.

At this time, more Gods arrived, forcing the Second Nether Monarch to forget about Purple Lightning Marquis and put more focus on the gate. Eventually, the Imperial Nether Province and the imperial nether devils were all sent into the gate.

"Goodbye, humans," said the Second Nether Monarch. With a sigh, he stepped through the gate.

"Ming Er, are you trying to leave just like that? Stay!" an aged voice suddenly rang out as a massive yellow palm reached for the gate.

"Old man Huang Tian, we have been fighting each other for our entire lives. It is truly kind of you to come send me off," said the Second Nether Monarch with a solemn look. He then formed a palm and sent it flying toward the incoming yellow palm.

The two powerful attacks collided, instantly creating a spatial storm. The impact blasted away all the surrounding Gods, showcasing the prowess of the two combatants.

The Second Nether Monarch and Huang Tian used to be evenly matched. However, the Second Nether Monarch hadn\'t been able to improve in the years he was trapped in the dominion. Furthermore, he still had to dedicate some of his strength to maintain the gate. Thus, he was blasted into the gate while coughing blood.

"Old man Huang Tian, the next time we meet, I\'ll crush you under my feet," said the Second Nether Monarch with indignation.

Next, the gate started slowly shrinking. Huang Tian flew over and sent 3,000 palm attacks through the gate, aiming to destroy the entire Imperial Nether Clan. Although the Imperial Nether Clan had not caused much slaughter in the dominion all these years, they had killed countless humans during their invasion. This was a grudge that couldn\'t be erased. Eventually, the gate vanished, leaving only a massive abyss on the ground, an abyss that would be known as the Devil’s Hollow to future generations.

"The Imperial Nether Clan left just like that?" Mo Yue, He Chenyu, and the others were completely confused.

Ten thousand years ago, the Imperial Nether Clan had launched an invasion against the dominion to gain more land for themselves. Ten thousand years later, they had withdrawn without doing anything to the dominion. Nobody could understand what they were thinking.

At this time, Huang Tian landed on the ground. He was a barefooted middle-aged man with messy yellow hair. Clad in a beast skin outfit, he looked incredibly sloppy. And when he opened his mouth, one would be able to see that all his teeth were yellow. Nobody would have imagined that he was one of the legendary lord guardians. The dominion only had five lord guardians in total. Ge Yi and Huang Tian were among the five, and the two were among the strongest humans in existence.

"Do you know why we let the Imperial Nether Clan stay here for all these years?" asked Huang Tian.

"Please educate us, lord guardian," said Mo Yue respectfully.

"Because we were curious if they could really survive here. As for the answer to that question, you saw it yourself. They can\'t," said Huang Tian.

"Is it because of the lack of devilish energy?" asked He Chenyu.

"That is one of the reasons, but it\'s not the main reason. The main reason is the suppression from the dominion\'s incorporeal power, which causes the devilish energy they produce to be impure. Also, their dao is incomplete here. It won\'t have much effect on Devil Gods, but their descendants will have a hard time growing strong here. Therefore, they had no choice but to leave," explained Huang Tian.

"In that case, why are the devils still trying to invade the dominion?" someone asked.

"Simple. They are still unaware of the actual situation up here. Furthermore, if the boundary between the dominion and the Devil Domain is broken, the devilish energy from the Devil Domain will surge into the dominion, transforming the very nature of the dominion into an environment suitable for the devils. Therefore, we can never slack in our suppression of the devils," said Huang Tian.

His words cleared their doubts. They were also relieved to hear that the Imperial Nether Clan had truly left for good. If the Imperial Nether Clan had other plans, it would be a cause of headache. Just as they were about to ask more questions, Huang Tian vanished and reappeared before Xiang Shaoyun and Purple Lightning Marquis, who were trying to quietly leave.

Earlier when Purple Lightning Marquis had torn an opening in the barrier, Xiang Shaoyun\'s clone had turned incorporeal and returned to his main body. Thus, the clone had not left with the Imperial Nether Clan.

"What are you trying to do?" asked Purple Lightning Marquis, alarmed at Huang Tian\'s sudden appearance.

Purple Lightning Marquis might be strong, but he still couldn\'t compare with a lord guardian. If this person harbored any ill intention toward them, they would not be able to escape death.

"Kid, you\'re Xiang Shaoyun, the disciple of that old blind man?" asked Huang Tian, completely ignoring Purple Lightning Marquis.

Xiang Shaoyun bowed slightly and said, "Greetings, lord. I don\'t know who \'old blind man\' is. My master\'s name is Ge Yi."

"Ge Yi is the old blind man. So you must be the legendary devil among humans. Are you the reason for the Imperial Nether Clan\'s sudden withdrawal?" asked Huang Tian as his penetrating gaze focused on Xiang Shaoyun. His gaze was so sharp that it was painful for Xiang Shaoyun to even meet his gaze.
