I Am Overlord

Chapter 1560: Barbaric Dynasty

Naturally, after entering his astral cosmos sea and obtaining the nourishment of his primal inception energy, the nine energy dragons would probably undergo some enhancements, becoming even more useful than before.

With the formation gone, the mountain started sliding aside, creating a loud rumbling sound. The crystal vein cracked, and an entrance slowly appeared before their eyes. Just as Xiang Shaoyun was about to start gathering the saint crystals around him, he sensed a terrifying power surge out of the entrance.

"Shit!" He instantly activated his defenses and retreated.

A terrifying venomous energy soared out of the entrance. The energy was so poisonous even Saints would probably suffer from it. In fact, even Xiang Shaoyun felt himself go dizzy just from approaching the energy. At the same time, blisters started growing all over his body, and a large amount of poison invaded his meridians, attempting to poison him to death. He circulated flame and lightning energies through his meridians unhesitatingly, expelling all the poison from his body.

Upon going above the ground, he shouted, "Everyone, leave! A terrifying poison is coming!"

None of them dared to stay, and all of them soared into the sky. They had also sensed how terrifying the poison was. Soon, the poisonous fog covered the whole entrance. With energies of extreme yang, Xiang Shaoyun quickly recovered from the poison. He then had his people clear up the poisonous fog.

The poisonous fog might be scary to them, but they still wouldn\'t have any issues removing the fog. As they worked on clearing the fog, a figure shot up and threw an overbearing fist at Liu Qingchen.

Liu Qingchen reacted speedily and formed his Indestructible Avatar. However, the punch was too powerful, instantly punching through the avatar and sending Liu Qingchen flying away while coughing blood.

Liu Qingchen was a peak Great Saint. With his strength, he could even contend against pseudo-Gods. And yet, someone like him had been sent flying with one punch. One could only imagine how strong the attacker was.

Everyone was alarmed and hurriedly launched a barrage of attacks toward the attacker. The attacker seemed completely fearless and welcomed the attacks with a series of punches. Space collapsed, and all the surrounding Saints were sent flying. When Xiang Shaoyun focused, he found that the attacker was actually a god-grade puppet, which was why the attacker was so powerful.

"Looks like there are quite a lot of obstacles stopping one from advancing through the entrance. I hope the things I find inside won\'t disappoint," muttered Xiang Shaoyun as he unleashed Yuan Gang upon the puppet.

Yuan Gang was a peak first-stage Devil God. With his physical strength, he could even contend against second-stage Gods. Thus, he would probably be able to suppress the puppet. While Yuan Gang was keeping the puppet occupied, Xiang Shaoyun took the chance to heal his companions.

After comprehending the profundity of life, Xiang Shaoyun had considerably enhanced his healing abilities. Thus, he was able to greatly support his companions during battle. Upon witnessing Xiang Shaoyun\'s healing prowess, their respect toward him increased. Not only was he strong, but he was also a capable healer. He was basically a monster capable of everything.

Xiang Shaoyun flew to Liu Qingchen\'s side and asked, "Still holding on?"

"That fellow is too terrifyingly strong. If he had continued coming after me, he might have punched me to death," said Liu Qingchen with a sigh.

"That\'s to be expected from a god-grade puppet. Come on, there shouldn\'t be any other dangers after this," said Xiang Shaoyun as he called out to the others.

Only a few people followed him under the ground. They were Devouring Ghost, Liu Qingchen, Despair, Bing Busi, and the other Army of Despair members. The rest stood guard outside the entrance. Even Scarlet Flame Monarch stayed outside to focus on sealing the area to prevent any unwanted attention.

Xiang Shaoyun and those he had chosen went deep underground. The entrance wasn\'t small. It had a diameter of over 10 meters. Some poisonous fog still remained, but Xiang Shaoyun\'s flame energy cleared it before it could pose any threat to the group.

With the divine dao eyes active, Xiang Shaoyun could see everything clearly. Before him was an incredibly deep tunnel. Ores and materials were lined neatly along the walls, and not far away was a wall cabinet containing a dim night pearl. Evidently, the pearl had stopped working due to the passage of time.

Some ancient carvings could be found on the walls as well. Upon closer look, one would find that these carvings depicted the day-to-day living of commoners. Each diagram depicted a different scene, but one could see that the people in the diagrams were happy with their lives.

Xiang Shaoyun rubbed the diagrams and sighed, "Are these depictions of the commoner\'s living environment in this dynasty?"

Suddenly, Despair exclaimed, "I-is this the Barbaric Dynasty?"

Xiang Shaoyun looked at Despair and asked, "Barbaric Dynasty? Do you know about them?"

Despair took a deep breath and said, "The Barbaric Dynasty is the first dynasty of the Southern Wasteland, and it\'s also the strongest dynasty in our history. Back then, they had almost conquered the entire Southern Wasteland. Even our ancestors were their mere descendants.

"The barbaric people were born with great physical strength and a powerful bloodline. Each of them was a powerful combatant. Subsequently, the alien races invaded. The Barbaric Dynasty formed one of the strongest resistances against the aliens, and it was during that war that they had sustained heavy losses. Eventually, a rebellion occurred, splitting the dynasty. Other organizations took the chance to attack while the dynasty was weak, ending the dynasty\'s reign."

"How do you know that this is the Barbaric Dynasty?" asked Xiang Shaoyun as he pointed at the diagrams.

"Look at their attire. All of them are clad in animal hides. Also, look at their sturdy bodies. From this, we can see that they were members of the Barbaric Dynasty," said Despair.

"So this is really the ruins of the Barbaric Dynasty?" asked Xiang Shaoyun.

He then increased his speed as he traveled through the tunnel.

Along the way, the diagrams along the walls kept changing. Toward the end, the diagrams started portraying the Barbaric Dynasty\'s struggles against the aliens, proving that Despair was right. Xiang Shaoyun and his group wondered if the people in these diagrams were still alive. Otherwise, how would there be these diagrams?

By the time they reached the end of the tunnel, they found their surroundings brightening up. They had arrived at an enormous public square that could house thousands of people. The sight before them was incredibly majestic, and it greatly shocked them.
