After large bowls of wine and meat, everyone was a bit tipsy. At this time, Han Shuo and Trunks arrived at a secluded rock in the back of the mountain.
The mountain breeze caressed their faces and the air was fresh. The two were in a very good mood after reuniting after a long time.
Trunks was still a great swordmaster. After spending five years in the great swordmaster realm, his fighting aura had become increasingly pure. However, perhaps due to the lack of opportunity, he had yet to make a breakthrough.
Five years felt like a lifetime had passed since the two had last seen each other. Han Shuo, in particular, had become a true god in the short span of five years. Although he hadn't deliberately displayed his strength, Trunks could still vaguely sense the powerful aura emanating from his soul.
"Brian, what realm are you at now? Why can't I sense any fighting aura or magic aura from you?" Trunks frowned as he looked at Han Shuo. He had carefully observed him for a long time, but still couldn't discern what martial arts technique Han Shuo was training in.
The demonic arts that Han Shuo trained in didn't have the aura of the element of death or the edict of destruction. All of the energy was hidden deep within his body, so Trunks naturally couldn't detect any clues.
Smiling faintly, Han Shuo didn't provide any explanation on this question. Instead, he asked Trunks, "Oh right, have you settled your grudge with Cesar City?"
Shaking his head, Trunks sighed softly and answered, "Not yet. Radley Pillon's Cesar City is heavily guarded. The Kasi Empire has been pressuring us step by step these past few years, and Valen City has instead been very passive. Although my Valley of Sunshine has developed rapidly, we are still founded on merchants and mercenaries. We are still somewhat lacking compared to the machinations of a country."
Nodding, Han Shuo understood that Trunks was speaking the truth. The Valley of Sunshine was situated between three countries and was situated in the middle of a mountain range. It was precisely because of this that there were advantages and disadvantages. It wasn't easy for Trunks to develop the Valley of Sunshine to such a scale. It would be exceedingly difficult for him to go one step further and contend with the country.
Han Shuo was about to say a few words of consolation when Trunks' expression suddenly turned cold as he said faintly, "The Valley of Sunshine can't contend against Cesar City, this is a fact. However, I've personally killed more than a dozen direct relatives of Radley Pillon's family over the past five years. Radley Pillon's uncle, nephew, and even his wife and son have all been assassinated by me. I want him to taste the pain of being abandoned by his family."
Han Shuo felt a chill in his heart as he looked at the sinister Trunks. He thought to himself that Radley Pillon probably wouldn't be able to sleep well after provoking such an enemy.
The immediate family members of Radley Pillon's family died one after another. Even his beloved woman and son were killed. That kind of torture must have been very painful for Radley Pillon.
Han Shuo had originally wanted to say a few words of consolation to Trunks, but after hearing Trunks' words, he knew that Trunks definitely didn't need his consolation after going through such a slow massacre. Judging from Trunks' appearance, he seemed to be enjoying the process of forcing Radley Pillon to his death step by step. He probably wasn't in a hurry to get rid of Radley Pillon in one fell swoop.
"So that's how it is. You brat, you're getting more and more sinister." Han Shuo laughed involuntarily as he teased Trunks.
"The Dark Forest and the lizardmen in the underground world are all under the control of our Soul Destroyer mercenary band. You've been gone for five years, so you may not know the situation. Let me introduce to you the current distribution of strength in the Valley of Sunshine. "Trunks chuckled.
"No need." Han Shuo interrupted Trunks' introduction and looked deeply at Trunks, "I believe that you will handle these matters well. I won't ask about the Soul Destroyer mercenary band's matters in the future. You just need to know what you're doing."
At Han Shuo's level of strength, he didn't even care about some countries, not to mention a small power like the Soul Destroyer mercenary band.
As long as Han Shuo was willing, he could destroy the Soul Destroyer mercenary band with a wave of his hand, or even rebuild a power of the same scale. The higher one stood, the further one could see. Even the Abyss realm completely belonged to him. What could a mere Soul Destroyer mercenary band amount to?
"No matter what, the Soul Destroyer mercenary band will always be yours! Even if you've forgotten, I won't! " Trunks clearly understood the meaning behind Han Shuo's words. He knew that Han Shuo had plans to let go of the mercenary band. After a moment of silence, Trunks suddenly guaranteed.
Laughing heartily, Han Shuo patted Trunks' shoulder and said, "There's no need for such words between us. Come, come, let's continue drinking, drink!"
"Alright, I'll accompany you to truly get drunk today!" Trunks laughed heartily.
… …
Naturally, Han Shuo wouldn't get drunk. That day, most of the people got drunk. Even Trunks, who had reached the realm of great swordmaster, got drunk without using his fighting aura to filter out the alcohol. However, Han Shuo's demonic body was special. Even if he didn't take any measures, he still wouldn't fall into such a dizzy state.
The next day, while Trunks and the others were still unconscious, Han Shuo found Sanguinar and Jasper and instructed them to stay and play in the Valley of Sunshine for the time being. He then left the Valley of Sunshine alone.
Deep within the Dark Forest, outside the Dragon Valley.
Han Shuo stealthily arrived outside the Dragon Valley and laid in ambush. After waiting for half a day, the other two avatars of his arrived one after the other.
After his avatar of destruction absorbed the energy of destruction formed from the deaths of hundreds of thousands of orcs at the South Border City, the divine energy in his body grew. He also gained some new understanding of the utilization of divine energy and the edict of destruction. This laid the foundation for the breakthrough of this avatar of Han Shuo's.
The advancement of the divine realm was an extremely long process. The three realms of lowgod, midgod, and highgod might take tens of thousands of years to complete the advancement process.
In other words, a god might need to stay in the same realm for tens of thousands of years or even longer. Those who entered the same realm first and spent many years in it would usually be able to surpass those who had just entered the same realm in the utilization of elemental energy and edict energy. It was precisely for this reason that the same divine realm was divided into three stages – early, middle, and late.
Those who cultivated to the peak of the late stage of the divine realm would be much stronger than those who had just entered the same realm.
Although both of Han Shuo's avatars were lowgods, as they had just entered this realm, their divine energy was relatively weak and their understanding of divine energy and the edict of elemental energy was not deep enough. Both of them were early-stage lowgods and were far from reaching the stage of mid-stage lowgod.
The reason why Han Shuo was not in a hurry to seek revenge on the Primordius Dragon was that he did not know which stage of lowgod the Primordius Dragon had reached. There was no doubt that a late-stage lowgod could easily defeat an early-stage or mid-stage lowgod in the same realm.
After the arrival of his two avatars, Han Shuo carefully sensed for a moment. It had to be said that the advancement of the divine realm was indeed a slow process. Although his avatar of destruction had absorbed the energy of destruction formed from the deaths of hundreds of thousands of orcs and his avatar of death had digested the divine energy of a divine essence, it was still far from the stage of mid-stage.
The two avatars once again concealed themselves in Han Shuo's body. Gazing at the Dragon Valley that was just inches away from him, Han Shuo pondered for a moment before he resolutely decided to enter and settle old scores with the Primordius Dragon.
Han Shuo did not know which stage of lowgod the Primordius Dragon was at. However, with his demonic arts having reached the Nine Changes realm, Han Shuo had mastered a few secret techniques. Even if the Primordius Dragon was a late-stage lowgod, if Han Shuo was no match for him, he could still easily escape. Han Shuo, who possessed three souls, was confident that he could easily defeat a mid-stage lowgod. However, if the Primordius Dragon was really a late-stage lowgod, Han Shuo had no certainty of victory. Fortunately, with his demonic arts, Han Shuo was not afraid that he would not be able to escape.
With a surefire plan in place, Han Shuo no longer hesitated. He raised his head and let out a long howl. His body turned into a rainbow and shot towards the Dragon Valley.
The boundary along the way could not stop Han Shuo in the slightest. With a wave of the Demonic Blades in Han Shuo's hand, the boundary was destroyed without the slightest hindrance.
The moment Han Shuo broke through the boundary and charged towards the Dragon Valley, he immediately caused a commotion in the Dragon Valley. As Han Shuo's howl soared into the sky, a high-pitched dragon roar suddenly came from the Dragon Valley. A third-order silver dragon wriggled its enormous body and charged straight at Han Shuo, baring its fangs and brandishing its claws. It breathed out dragon breath and bellowed thunderously, "Lowly human, how dare you trespass into the Dragon Valley! You're courting death!"
"Haha, worm, let's see who's the lowly one today!" Han Shuo sneered. Without conjuring either of his avatars, he directly grabbed at the third-order silver dragon.
When Han Shuo grabbed at the silver dragon, his body suddenly transformed and grew bigger and bigger in the void. By the time his hand reached the silver dragon, Han Shuo had already turned into a fifty-meter-tall giant. Before the silver dragon could react, Han Shuo, who had transformed into a giant, grabbed the silver dragon's head and tail with both hands.
The silver dragon was only twenty-meter-long. Compared to the current Han Shuo, it was just a slightly larger snake. Han Shuo laughed maniacally and pulled with force. The silver dragon's ten-meter-long body was directly torn into several pieces. Dragon tendons mixed with blood sprayed everywhere.
Nine was the extreme number. The Nine Changes Realm also meant that one could take on a myriad of transformations and transcendence energy. Apart from the implication that nine was the extreme, the Nine Changes Realm also had nine transformations that needed to be practiced. They were Speed Change, Body Change, Heart Change, Divine Sense Change, Bloodlust Change, Space Change, Earth Change, Sky Change, and Demonic Change.
Each of these nine transformations had its own unique function. Ever since Han Shuo reached the Nine Changes Realm, he had only just mastered Speed Change and Body Change. As for the remaining seven transformations, Han Shuo was still diligently comprehending them.
