Omnipotent Overlord

Hum~

The mob was right on top of him when Li Mo glowed golden. A shield appeared around him for protection.

The dozens of people attacked relentlessly but nothing could pierce the golden shield.

Li Mo had no clue where the shield came from. It stunned even him.

‘That’s a cheat, alright. Of a freakishly high level too..’

Li Mo sighed.

He had no idea how long it would last. It was best he went on the offensive and deal with the buzzing.

Although his stats were cut in half, he could still one shot them.

Ding!

[You learned Crescent Blade!]

Ding!

[You learned Assassinate!]

Ding!

[You learned Whirlwind!]

Ding!

[You learned Shield Wall]

Ding!

[Because of your ever-increasing stats, you grasped Expert’s Solitude.]

Ding!

[Your understanding of combat has increased. Your critical chance increased by 50%.]

Amidst the slaughter, Li Mo learned skills galore, his stats inflated some more and even got some personal skills gleaned into and secondary gifts. How could these Dipper Galaxy weaklings be a match for him?

In under five minutes, Li Mo dispatched a thousand people.

He hadn’t realized it until there was no Dipper Galaxy player left standing.

Blood flowed in streams, the earth littered with corpses.

Underworld had another rule. When adventurers from different factions did battle, the dead stayed dead.

“Level 9 gift, Undying. How are you going to kill me?”

One king level player from Dipper Galaxy shouted his battlecry thinking he’d survive thanks to his gift.

Li Mo hacked him in one blow, only to spring up the next second.

“Comeback!”

A white light enveloped him and his stats increased.

Comeback was a level 5 trait that the more he died the stronger he got. It was the best match-up to his Undying, since he’d come back again and again.

“Ha-ha-ha, you can’t kill me. But my stats will increase and I will soon kill you!”

The man cackled with confidence.

Li Mo’s style never changed, hacking again and again, taking the man’s life each time.

Ding!

[You got Undying.]

Li Mo finally heard what he was waiting for and after his next strike, the undying player stayed down.

‘A cheat absorption skill cares not for you gift. One activation and I’ll rob you blind.’

Before Li Mo existed, the undying type gifts helped the players revive. Each galaxy had some capable of this effect, because they were really sick gifts. In the middle of a slaughter, only they remained and the conclusion would never come. 

Li Mo was the only one who broke this balance.

“This is impossible!”

“How? An undying can’t die, or they wouldn’t be called that!”

“I must be seeing things…"

“Balico has the same gift, he cannot die!”

Dipper Galaxy’s players were shirking back.

“Archfiend Mage, kill this traitor!”

A cruel voice sounded and the corpses began to rise.

Dipper’s boss, Alcado was here with his hero.

The galaxies had been waging war before the gates of the Dark Hall for all this time. The death toll was unimaginable. But when Dorag 19 placed the huge soul bottle before the gate, nothing happened. (Mito was away.)

They were clearly toyed with. So each galaxy boss raged, and the war stopped.

Alcado was the first to return here itching to destroy Milky Way Galaxy, but all he saw was Li Mo’s might.

Archfiend Mage, or Emperor Jiang, used the zombies to attack Li Mo.

Li Mo looked at Emperor Jiang with a complicated gaze. Emperor Jiang was the last God Emperors to be born and the most special case. He had reached that staged by himself and the quickest.

The misfortune that befell Emperor Jiang in his last years was all because of the flawed cultivation method and the limit imposed on Earth. 

Who among the 36 Emperors weren’t unrivaled? 

In the vast stretches of the universe, powerful beings were countless. But to rise above the masses was true strength.

“Without your body and only a thread of broken soul, you are no longer Emperor Jiang.”

Li Mo used Flurry to run to Emperor Jiang.

With a simple stab, Emperor Jiang’s health bar dropped sharply.

“Eh!?”

The crowd went wild.

Ever since they came to Underworld it was common knowledge a hero was invincible.

A hero was all-powerful and any that had one had the world.

But that thinking was crushed before their very eyes.

“Killing undying, damaging heroes, just who is he?”

“Weren’t heroes supposed to be invincible?”

“How is this possible?”

Nothing was impossible. Li Mo was a testament to that.

Venom Kiss erupted four strikes later and half health Emperor Jiang lost all hp. His body turned into soul traces and scattered.

Plop~

Without Emperor Jiang, the zombies fell.

“Dipper Galaxy’s hero is dead!”

Alcado recoiled back, his face twisted in pain.

He just became the boss of his galaxy and took for granted his power thinking he would lead Dipper Galaxy to glory. Only to find his hero dead along with his men…

“No… no…” Alcado wailed in denial.

“Drop your weapons and kneel. Cry out the name of my lord and you shall live!”

Stoneman Clauder brought his Milky Way Guards over.

What was the point of fighting now when undying were killed and even heroes lay dead?

Everyone kneeled on the spot.

“Please spare us, lord Clauder!”

“What are you shouting? I am only Celestial Lord Mo’s first general. You should be kneeling to him, not me!”

Clauder pointed and the kneeling people shouted, “Celestial Lord Mo, spare us. We submit!”

“Dipper Galaxy’s Tauren, to the death!”

Alcado roared and charged at Li Mo, but Clauder blocked him.

“Get lost!”

Clank~

Alcado struck 20 times but Clauder’s health didn’t even budge. 

“Only my lord can harm me!” Clauder stuck his head out, on a high horse.

“Alcado, you have three seconds to kneel, or I will kill you!”

Plop!

Alcado’s knees hit the pavement.
