I Am Overlord

Chapter 1248: Entering Through Invisibility

Once again, Xiang Shaoyun, Devil Concubine, Yu Caidie, and Yu Ziyang arrived near devilsand bug territory. More human corpses could be seen in the area. These people had all been reduced to black, rotting corpses. These were clearly the injuries dealt by the devilsand bugs.

The devilsand bugs had formidable defenses and powerful venom. Even Soul Foundation Realm experts would have a hard time against them. Of course, if it wasn\'t for the sheer number of bugs, the humans would have been able to put up a good fight against them.

Yu Caidie and Yu Ziyang had both personally experienced the terror of the bugs. Thus, while advancing, they maintained a high vigilance and constantly reminded Xiang Shaoyun to be careful.

Naturally, Yu Caidie wasn\'t the only one who had obtained some devilsand. Others had also managed to gather some at a high price. After learning about the bugs, Xiang Shaoyun decided to go in alone. He refused to endanger the others.

"Wait for me out here. I\'ll get some devilsand for you guys," said Xiang Shaoyun firmly.

"No! We agreed to go together," said Devil Concubine.

"That\'s right. You might be strong, but there are too many of them. You won\'t be able to deal with them easily," said Yu Caidie.

Xiang Shaoyun smiled and said, "Don\'t worry. I have my own ways. I guarantee I can get some devilsand undetected."

He then vanished into thin air. The two women were stunned. Even Yu Ziyang was speechless.

"Can you see me?" Xiang Shaoyun\'s voice suddenly rang out from the same spot.

"No," the two women replied.

"See? Just wait here," said Xiang Shaoyun as he entered the devilsand bug territory.

Xiang Shaoyun\'s talent of invisibility granted him a massive advantage over others. With this ability, no place was so dangerous that he wouldn\'t dare to enter. After a short while, he reached the devilsand bug territory. Buzzing sounds filled the air, causing one to feel uncomfortable. Every now and then, swarms of devilsand bugs would appear, flying amid the withered trees in the area.

This was a mountainous region filled with holes. From far away, it was as though one was being stared at by countless pitch-black eyes, a sight that would cause one\'s hair to stand on end.

Stones littered the place, but few of these stones were actually chunks of devilsand. Each chunk of devilsand was surrounded by a large number of devilsand bugs. These bugs were also competing to devour the chunks, so to obtain these devilsand chunks, one had to first get rid of the bugs.

Previously, Yu Caidie had relied on her phoenix flame to obtain some devilsand. Xiang Shaoyun might have approached successfully, but he still needed to think of a way to deal with the bugs. If he used fire, he would expose himself.

Instead of making a move immediately, he observed the devilsand bugs. He was confident each species would have its own weakness. So long as he discovered their weakness, he could easily defeat them.

Each devilsand bug was protected by a hard shell, and even their wings were as tough as the most durable of weapons. No ordinary person could break through their defenses. The bugs\' long fangs made them look even more terrifying. How should he proceed?

After observing the bugs for a while with his gift of instincts, Xiang Shaoyun finally discovered something. On a certain spot of each bug was a tiny clump of flesh with a slightly different color. That was probably their weak point.

When Xiang Shaoyun saw that a bug had separated from the others, he couldn\'t help but jab at the clump of flesh. Sure enough, that spot was soft, and the clump broke with a single jab.

But after the clump of flesh broke, a terrifying burst of venom spurted out. Instantly, Xiang Shaoyun\'s finger turned black, and the poison rapidly spread from it. He even felt slightly light-headed. Fortunately, he was able to react, and he hurriedly circulated Yun Flame to expel all the poison from his body.

If Yun Flame wasn\'t good enough to expel the poison, he would probably be completely helpless.

What a terrifying poison. That clump is both their weak point and the scariest part of their body. With that thing, they can easily drag someone to the grave with them before dying, thought Xiang Shaoyun.

The death of a single devilsand bug did not attract any attention. After all, there were too many of them, and they would occasionally fight among themselves, so a single death was nothing for them.

Just as Xiang Shaoyun was about to make a move, a shrill voice rang out, and countless devilsand bugs charged toward the voice. He hurriedly moved out of their way. He saw that people were here for the devilsand. The bugs were trying to surround those intruders.

Looks like someone is here delivering me a pillow just when I\'m sleepy, thought Xiang Shaoyun as he charged toward the devilsand and attacked rapidly, creating clumps of terrifying flame at several locations.

The devilsand bugs feared fire and instantly left the burning devilsand chunks. After flying out, they scanned their surroundings with their scarlet eyes, trying to look for the attacker.

However, they were unable to see Xiang Shaoyun and were confused as to why this place would suddenly start burning. Xiang Shaoyun was able to easily gather the devilsand chunks.

However, there weren\'t too many chunks in the area, so he rushed to a different location. He hoped to gather more because these devilsand chunks could be used to increase his sect\'s wealth and could be given away to his own people.

He used the same method of burning and gathering as he collected more and more devilsand chunks. Since some people were nearby trying to gather some devilsand chunks, the devilsand bugs were occupied. Thus, Xiang Shaoyun could freely move around.

Just as he was about to collect his third batch of devilsand chunks, he found that the devilsand bugs in this area weren\'t moving at all. Behind them was a massive cave emanating a thick devilish energy.

With one look, Xiang Shaoyun could see that a great danger was hidden within the cave. He wanted to leave, but he discovered that some top-quality devilsand chunks could be found in the cave.

These top-quality devilsand chunks were over ten times more valuable than regular devilsand chunks and were treasures that one had to be lucky enough to encounter. Surprisingly, there were some in the cave.

Right then, two sharp rays of light shot out, followed by a terrifying beam of poison, all aiming for Xiang Shaoyun.
