"Grandpa, hurry up and release the Radiance of Light to dispel this evil magic!" Florida was extremely anxious as he yelled at the dumbfounded Ferguson.
With his grandson's reminder, Ferguson, who had been trembling in fear, came to his senses. The magic staff in his hand emitted a holy and bright light, and his voice echoed through the valley, "Holy power of light, hear my call, and dispel all darkness — Radiance of Light!"
A strong ray of light tore through the sky as the holy and mystical element of light filled the air above the valley. The dark green clouds created by Han Shuo's Canopy of Necromancy dissipated under the radiance of the holy light, disappearing without a trace in an extremely short amount of time.
Dazzling light shone upon the valley, reflecting the gentle light of the stars. The aura of death was quickly dispelled as the holy power of light sprinkled down. The dark creatures that Han Shuo had summoned began to emit smoke from their bodies as their speed and strength were hindered.
However, the newly resurrected corpses were the least affected by the Radiance of Light. Although their skin also emitted white smoke, they could still move freely and continued to charge towards the three great powers.
The experts who had died not long ago also had the aura of dark creatures in their bodies due to Han Shuo's necromancy magic. However, they had just died and the aura of darkness in their bodies was still very weak. Therefore, they could still barely resist the light magic when it landed on them.
Thanks to Han Shuo's earlier reminder, Laureton and the remaining twenty or so people of the Cairo mercenary band had broken through the encirclement of the three great powers while the House of Menlo was still in a daze, running towards the entrance of the valley.
When the Radiance of Light sprinkled down, Han Shuo knew that the effects of the Canopy of Necromancy would definitely be dispelled. The summoned dark creatures wouldn't be able to escape either. However, some of the acid swamps had already been released, and the experts chasing after Laureton's group were more or less affected by the acid swamps.
Among them, the House of Menlo was the most affected. The experts of the House of Menlo riding magical beasts of various ranks stepped into the acidic bog in a panic. Their legs were immediately corroded by the acidic bog, rapidly rotting away. It was similar to the reaction of dark creatures after being exposed to the Radiant Glory.
"Be careful, this damned evil necromancer, I'll kill him!" The House of Menlo had expended many years of effort to gather this batch of high-level magical beasts. However, they had accidentally stepped into the acid swamp, and five or six magical beasts of rank 2 and 3 had died in an instant. This caused Adam Menlo to be incomparably enraged, and he roared at Han Shuo.
"Hehe, you want to kill me? Come!" Han Shuo, who couldn't suppress his bloodlust, was just fretting about not being able to find an outlet to vent. Upon hearing Adam Menlo's furious roar, his blood-red eyes suddenly glared at Adam Menlo.
Floating in the air with the Art of the Demonic Ninth Heavens, Han Shuo's ferocious killing intent was terrifying. Even Florida, who had a deep grudge against Han Shuo, didn't give the order to attack Han Shuo at all costs. On one hand, it was because Han Shuo's aura was terrifying. On the other hand, it was because Han Shuo was high up in the sky, making him difficult to deal with.
"Kill Laureton first. Once he's dead, the Cairo mercenary band will be finished. There's no need to rush this person for now." Florida couldn't help but yell anxiously when he saw Asa and Andy fly into the sky, raising their magic staffs to attack Han Shuo.
On the other side, Laureton had already led the Cairo mercenary band towards the mouth of the valley. Florida had expended so much effort this time, even willingly giving up the mithril mine, just to kill Laureton and allow the Rainbow Sickle mercenary band to control the Valley of Sunshine. He naturally couldn't let Laureton leave.
After Florida's roar, the remaining thirty or so Rainbow Sickle mercenary band experts and Florida all chased after Laureton. Andy, who had flown into the sky with Asa to deal with Han Shuo, looked at Han Shuo standing proudly in the sky and finally turned to chase after Laureton with Florida.
However, Asa, whose arm had been severed by Han Shuo with the Demonslayer Edge, didn't listen to Florida's orders. He continued to stare fiercely at Han Shuo and flew towards Han Shuo with the patriarch of the House of Menlo, Adam Menlo.
Behind Asa was grand magus Ferguson, who had released the Radiance of Light. He was also hovering in the air like a willow leaf as he floated over.
"Shoot!" Adam Menlo rode on the golden roc and wielded a dazzling golden spear as he aggressively charged towards Han Shuo. At the same time, he ordered the experts below him.
The experts of the House of Menlo had been killed by Laureton's Berserker Axe and Han Shuo's necromancy magic. There were only thirty or so people left. Under Adam Menlo's orders, bolts of crossbow bolts and spinning axes shot towards Han Shuo, who was standing high in the sky.
The three yin demons enveloped the entire scene, and Han Shuo could clearly see any abnormality. When the experts of the House of Menlo flew into the sky, a trace of a disdainful smile appeared on Han Shuo's lips. He only looked down with a cold smile and didn't take any action.
Just as the arrows were about to hit Han Shuo, Han Shuo, who'd been standing proudly in the sky, suddenly transformed into four people. The four Han Shuo looked exactly the same and moved in four different directions, respectively charging towards Ferguson, Adam Menlo, Asa, and the members of the House of Menlo below.
The ballista bolts and spinning axes from the House of Menlo below suddenly missed. They didn't even touch the corner of Han Shuo's clothes.
"Wha, what's going on?"
"How did it become four people? Damn it, am I seeing things?!"
The experts of the House of Menlo exclaimed in disbelief.
Ferguson and the other two also didn't know what was going on. As mages, Ferguson and Asa dodged instinctively. Only Adam Menlo, who was riding on the golden roc and wielding the golden spear, attacked the Han Shuo in front of him even though he was equally shocked.
At this moment, a series of whistling sounds pierced through the air. Seven bone spurs shining with a cold glint shot towards the golden-winged roc beneath Adam Menlo from all directions. On top of a huge rock, the Little Skull stood proudly. His Purple Demon Eye glowed brightly as he firmly locked onto the golden roc beneath Adam Menlo.
Under the Little Skeleton's control, the seven bone spurs spun in a strange trajectory. As they flew towards the wings of the golden-winged roc, the seven bone spurs shone with a brilliant jade light. They were as sharp and cold as seven bright snow blades.
The bone saber struck the Golden-Winged Roc's wings, producing clanging sounds. The Golden-Winged Roc let out a sharp, low cry. Golden feathers flew off its wings with specks of blood. The Golden-Winged Roc was clearly injured.
Adam Menlo, who'd been charging aggressively at Han Shuo, was now brandishing his golden spear and continuously blocking the seven bone spurs' attacks. Curses rang out incessantly from his mouth, and it was obvious that he was beyond angry.
"Old thing, you want to kill me? Keke!" Han Shuo, who'd been flying towards Ferguson and the other two, disappeared into thin air. At this moment, his body suddenly appeared ten meters above Adam Menlo's head. Han Shuo's eyes were crimson red as he laughed maniacally. The murderous aura around his body condensed on his arms. As Han Shuo's two hands bombarded, the thick murderous aura surged downwards like layers of blood waves.
"Damn it!" Adam Menlo cursed. The golden spear that'd been blocking the seven bone spurs had no choice but to immediately lift up. He exerted his Sky Knight's fighting aura to the limit, forming a silver light screen to block the invasion of the blood waves.
However, the blood waves formed by the murderous aura contained a terrifying power. The thick murderous aura covered the sky and covered the earth. It was as heavy as a mountain pressing down. The light screen formed by the condensed fighting aura was only able to resist for the time of two breaths before it was suddenly broken by the blood waves.
With a loud rumble, the blood waves poured down like the waters of the Milky Way, violently shooting towards the body of the golden-winged roc that was tightly wrapped around Adam Menlo. The ten-meter-tall golden-winged roc was directly smashed into the ground from the sky, causing the earth to shake and the mountains to shake.
When the experts of the House of Menlo below saw that their patriarch and the golden-winged roc had been forcibly struck down from the sky by Han Shuo, they were all extremely frightened. They gave up on chasing Laureton and instead swarmed towards the area, immediately surrounding the bloodied golden-winged roc as soon as they arrived.
Seeing that the experts of the House of Menlo had already surrounded Adam Menlo and the golden-winged roc, Han Shuo, who was frozen in the air, didn't make a move against Adam Menlo who was trapped by the golden-winged roc. The terrifying aura on his body and his crimson eyes returned to normal.
Han Shuo's true strength was enough to face a sky knight or great swordmaster head on. If Little Skull was added to the mix, then he would have a better chance. However, the reason why he'd been able to happily strike down Adam Menlo and the golden-winged roc was because he'd borrowed Tanai's murderous aura.
When the attack landed, the murderous aura that he'd absorbed from the valley was completely released. Han Shuo, who was in the bloodlust realm, also returned to normal, his emotions calm and steady. After the three yin demons concealed themselves, they once again turned into bright lights that observed the surroundings, reflecting the entire valley into their hearts.
