With Bord and Zinia, the two tyrannical Black Jade City Black Jade Guards around, Han Shuo and Sanguinar arrived at the first towering building without any obstruction.
"This is Kuliya's family. His father was once my father's subordinate," Sanguinar took a deep breath and said in a deep voice when they arrived at Kuliya's doorstep.
Han Shuo extended his consciousness and took in all the auras of the people inside. He nodded and said to Sanguinar, "I won't go in. As long as you use the power in your body, none of those people will be able to escape from your grasp. Master will be watching from outside. If anyone escapes, I'll help you take care of them. "
"Alright!" Sanguinar did not waste any time. As soon as Han Shuo finished speaking, he seemed to recall the hatred that this family had inflicted on him and his son. His eyes turned scarlet as he charged in with a murderous look in his eyes.
Sanguinar's unique body allowed his blood to contain a considerable amount of power. Once he understood the basic cultivation method of the Bloodgod Mantra, once Sanguinar released the power of his blood, his strength could not be underestimated. With such a good foundation, as long as he diligently studied the Bloodgod Mantra, the power of his blood would become stronger and stronger. Sooner or later, he would reach the heights that Han Shuo hoped for.
"Dong Bala, you old fart, come out!" A murderous roar suddenly came from Sanguinar's mouth, followed by a series of clanking sounds.
"Eh, it's you, you little bastard. Are you crazy? How dare you come to my house to die?" A woman's angry voice came from inside the house.
"Ha, I'm crazy. Your son Kuliya is dead. Now it's your turn," Sanguinar laughed maniacally, followed by a series of crackling sounds.
A shrill scream suddenly came from the woman's mouth. The news of Kuliya's death had driven this woman completely insane. She recklessly charged at Sanguinar. Sanguinar, who had already made up his mind to bathe this place in blood, did not hesitate at all. After reporting the news of Kuliya's death, he immediately began the massacre.
One scream after another came from inside the house. Han Shuo wore a faint smile on his face as he listened to the commotion inside. He said to Jasper beside him, "This kid is courageous in killing. In time to come, he will definitely be a good helper for me."
"Mister Han Shuo, what martial technique does he cultivate? Why does his body reek of blood?" Bord and Zinia had long sensed something unusual from Sanguinar, and could not help but ask.
"Hehe, in any case, it's not the twelve fundamental forces that you know of. The martial technique that I teach is different from what you practice," Han Shuo replied with a faint smile.
Upon hearing these words, Bord and Zinia, the two Black Jade Guards, immediately put on a solemn expression. Zinia inquired, "Mister Han Shuo, since you come from another material plane, it's only natural that you would have some unusual martial techniques. What do you think about the martial techniques that we practice? Is there anything that we should improve on?"
Han Shuo was taken aback. He looked at Bord and Zinia in astonishment, only to see the solemn and humble expressions on their faces. After thinking for a moment, Han Shuo smiled and said, "The twelve fundamental forces that you practice actually have their own unique aspects. I've actually dabbled in this aspect as well. As long as you put more effort into the cultivation of the soul, you will find that you will have a deeper understanding and grasp of the elemental energy."
Upon hearing Han Shuo's words, Bord and Zinia put on respectful expressions and very sincerely replied, "Mister Han Shuo, please give us some pointers!"
Both of them were basegods. However, the fusion of their souls and elemental energy was all thanks to Demon King Manticole's assistance. Without attentively comprehending the energy on their own, they would indeed be far from being able to utilize it as compared to those who became divinities on their own. Both of them understood that Han Shuo's strength was a notch above theirs. Therefore, they humbly asked Han Shuo for pointers.
Han Shuo, who was proficient in the energy of necromancy, destruction, and demonic arts, had a very deep understanding of the cultivation of the soul and elemental energy back on Profound Continent. Therefore, he had a lot to teach these two Black Jade Guards. However, Han Shuo naturally wouldn't share some of his precious insights with them. Instead, he gave them some ambiguous explanations regarding his understanding of the soul.
As basegods, the two were of rather high realms. Therefore, although Han Shuo's explanations were ambiguous, they were still deeply enlightened. They put on pensive expressions as they pondered over Han Shuo's words for a while. They seemed to vaguely understand something. After a long while, they joyfully expressed their gratitude, "Many thanks, Mister Han Shuo. Mister Han Shuo is indeed a true expert."
Han Shuo shook his head smilingly without saying a word. He thought to himself, These fellas of the Abyss realm have an unimaginable obsession in the pursuit of strength. If they were to go to Profound Continent and comprehend something from the martial techniques and cultivation methods on Profound Continent, they would surely become even more terrifying in the future.
While Han Shuo was thinking about this, miserable howls continuously sounded in his ears. When Han Shuo focused his attention, he discovered that the battle was coming to an end.
Sure enough, not long after, a bloodied Sanguinar gradually walked out of the room as the sounds in the room died down. The dark red blood obviously didn't come from Sanguinar. It was just that when the blood splattered on Sanguinar's skin, there seemed to be faint specks of light that were absorbed by Sanguinar's skin, causing the stench of blood on Sanguinar's body to grow thicker and thicker.
Those who cultivated in the Bloodgod Mantra could obtain energy from the blood of living beings. The more powerful the owner of the blood, the more energy would be contained in their blood. Naturally, Sanguinar, with his extraordinary talent, would be able to obtain more energy from the blood.
Just by watching the blood on Sanguinar's body gradually fade until it completely disappeared, Han Shuo knew that Sanguinar had grasped the key to the art. He was very pleased with Sanguinar's perception.
Silently walking up to Han Shuo, Sanguinar's expression returned to normal. As expected, he didn't have the excitement of killing for the first time. He took a light breath to calm himself down and said calmly, "A total of twelve people. I've killed all of them."
Nodding, Han Shuo smiled and said, "Very well, let's go to the next one!"
…
It didn't take long for a total of seven enemies who had a deep grudge against Sanguinar to be personally annihilated by Sanguinar, who had endured for many years, under the instigation of his master, Han Shuo.
Along the way, Sanguinar had become somewhat numb from the killings. Towards the end, the thick stench of blood on his body could be smelled even from dozens of meters away. Just as Han Shuo had said, the more one killed, the less one's emotions would be affected by it. When the last victim was brutally torn apart by Sanguinar, the blood splashed all over him.
Drenched in blood, Sanguinar seemed to have been reborn. There was no longer a shred of weakness in his eyes, only the calmness and indifference of a mad demon towards death. After this battle, Han Shuo believed that after Sanguinar had released the hatred in his heart, he would no longer be afraid of anything. Without the Heart-devouring Evil Seed, the resolute Sanguinar's cultivation of the Blood Mantra would definitely be much faster.
After settling Sanguinar's matter, Han Shuo did not linger. Together with Bord and Zinia, who had been waiting for a long time, they headed towards the Demon King's Palace, which was the pinnacle of power in Black Jade City.
"Mister Han Shuo, allow me to go and inform them again," Bord said apologetically when they arrived in front of the Demon King's Palace, which was as tall as a small mountain.
"No problem," Han Shuo replied smilingly.
After Bord bowed and left, Zinia, who had stayed behind to accompany Han Shuo and the others, looked up at the towering, magnificent building, and explained, "The Demon King's Palace is the place where Lord Manticole cultivates. It is also the political and religious center of our Black Jade City. His Lordship has always been cultivating inside. He rarely leaves the Demon King's Palace unless there are special circumstances."
Han Shuo raised his head to look at the towering Demon King's Palace. Sensing the aura of darkness that lingered on the peak of the Demon King's Palace, Han Shuo understood that the person who lived inside must be an extraordinary character. At the very least, Manticole had the strength of a lowgod!
Only a lowgod would need the power of faith. He would obtain strands of the power of faith through the offerings of all the people under his jurisdiction, providing his divine energy with the power to accumulate more divine energy, allowing his unique Domain of Divinity to possess even more impressive power.
When he thought of the Domain of Divinity, Han Shuo forced a smile. Although his avatar on the Demonslayer Edge had cultivated to the lowgod realm of destruction, perhaps because it was a half-baked change in cultivation and didn't understand the usage of the edict of destruction, although the Demonslayer Edge had divine energy circulating within it, his avatar had yet to comprehend the Domain of Divinity. From this aspect, although his avatar had cultivated to the lowgod realm of destruction, it was still imperfect for various reasons.
It seems that I need to spend some time for my avatar to properly comprehend the mysteries of the edict of destruction, Han Shuo thought to himself.
Beside Han Shuo, Jasper, Edith, and Sanguinar, his new disciple, were looking up at the Demon King's Palace that pierced the blue dome of heaven with obvious restraint and reverence on their faces. Having grown up in the area under Manticole's jurisdiction, they had regarded Manticole as the only god and faith in their hearts since birth. Now that they were standing in front of the Demon King's Palace, that deep-rooted influence was even more intense.
After a while, Bord came over with a smile on his face. He bowed and said, "Mister Han Shuo, please follow me. Erm, Jasper, Edith, and your disciple, Zinia will take them to rest for the time being. There are some bizarre energies on top of the Demon King's Palace. It would not be beneficial for them to recklessly go up there without sufficient strength. "
Han Shuo nodded, put on a faint smile, and said to Jasper, "You all follow Zinia and don't wander off. He's right, the Demon King's Palace is indeed not a place that just anyone can barge into. "
Upon finishing those words, Han Shuo followed behind Bord and headed to the top of the Demon King's Palace to meet one of the five Demon Kings of the Abyss realm.
