"What pattern? Why haven't I discovered it?" Li Wei was greatly astonished. She struggled to turn her head and look around. However, apart from the colorful miasma that filled the air, she could not see anything special about the place.
"There's only the colorful miasma here. I can't see anything at all. Is there really a pattern?" Donna mumbled to herself in astonishment.
"Haven't any of you discovered that the flow of the miasma actually follows a pattern?" Han Shuo pointed out with a faint smile.
The party was dumbfounded by Han Shuo's words. Soon after, they focused their attention on the flowing miasma around them and observed the changes in it.
After careful observation, they really did find that the colorful miasma had some strange characteristics as it flowed.
The miasma was divided into five colors: red, blue, green, purple, and black. The five colors did not interfere with one another nor did they mix together. As they flowed around them, the five miasma seemed to have a tacit understanding. Every time, one of the miasma would come over and stay for a period of time before automatically dispersing. Then, another miasma would continue to corrode them.
"Oh! There really seems to be a pattern! " Li Wei was very excited. Then, she looked at Han Shuo who was right in front of her and asked, "Could it be that our way out has something to do with the miasma?"
"I think so!" Han Shuo replied indifferently. The Pentacloud Hallucination Formation borrowed the miasma. As long as they could grasp the pattern of the miasma's flow, they would be able to figure out the way out of this place.
"Alright, let's all observe carefully!" Donna, who had great trust in Han Shuo, hastily shouted.
Upon hearing those words, the party who had been stuck in the Pentacloud Miasma for a long time began to observe the pattern of the miasma, hoping to find a way out of this place.
Unfortunately, after observing for a while, they did more or less figure out the pattern of the miasma's flow. However, they did not understand the Pentacloud Hallucination Formation at all. Even if they knew the pattern of the miasma's flow, they could not find a way out.
"I, I can't hold on much longer!" Bolten's face was flushed red. He had consumed too much of his divine power, causing him to feel fear.
Although Li Wei's servant, Colbert, did not utter a word, his aged face was pale and he appeared to be on the verge of death.
"Li Wei, let's go. Let's give our seats to Colbert and Bolton!" At this critical moment, Donna decisively ordered Li Wei. Soon after, she turned to Han Shuo and said, "Brian, we should work together at this moment!"
Taking a deep breath, Han Shuo suddenly smiled and said, "You don't have to go out!"
"Why? Colbert is dying. Even if the divine weapon is damaged, I can't just watch him die. I'm going out, don't stop me! "Li Wei said anxiously when she saw that Colbert's face was turning paler and paler.
In the distance, when Colbert heard Li Wei's words, a trace of gratitude emerged in his lifeless eyes. When he saw that Li Wei was about to come out, he hastily said, "Young Lady need not worry about this old slave. This old slave's life is for the sake of protecting Young Lady and not for Young Lady to sacrifice herself for me!"
"What are you talking about? If you can live, then live well!" Donna berated.
"I said we don't have to go out, so we don't have to go out!" Han Shuo thought to himself that Li Wei wasn't completely devoid of redeeming qualities when he saw that she was so attentive at such a critical moment. Seeing that everyone's gazes were once again focused on him, Han Shuo confidently said, "I have found the pattern. Follow me, I will lead you out!"
"Are, are you sure?" Bolten shouted with a mixture of surprise and delight when he heard Han Shuo's words at this moment of despair.
"There shouldn't be a problem!" Han Shuo nodded and instructed, "Line up behind me. If I go fast, you go fast. If I go slow, you go slow too. Don't fall behind by a single step. Otherwise, don't blame me if you get lost and can't make it out alive! "
Donna was not at ease either. Before Han Shuo took action, she asked again, "Brian, do, do you think we can make it out of here before their divine energy is exhausted?"
"Trust me!" Han Shuo replied like a charlatan.
At such a moment, nobody had any good ideas. But when they saw that Han Shuo was so confident, they came to a tacit understanding and moved to Han Shuo's side one after another.
Han Shuo said nothing after seeing that everyone was ready. His eyes glowed faintly as he carefully observed the flow of the miasma.
All of a sudden, when the red miasma dissipated and was about to be replaced by a purple miasma, Han Shuo suddenly moved five steps to the left. Behind him, Bolten and the others had been cautiously waiting for Han Shuo's next move. The moment he moved, they immediately followed suit.
When they were five steps behind him, they miraculously discovered that the red miasma that had dissipated earlier had once again returned to their side and began to corrode them.
After a few dozen seconds of silence, when the red miasma once again dissipated, Han Shuo suddenly moved again. This time, he moved extremely slowly, step by step, to the right. After ten steps, the scenery changed. Han Shuo and the others had once again arrived at the place where the red miasma had gathered.
At this moment, the group discovered that Han Shuo was actually following the red miasma. They gradually gained more trust in Han Shuo. Before this, the miasma was erratic and would never reappear around them. They had gone back and forth in this place countless times and had never been corroded by just one miasma.
Li Wei, who was leaning closely to Han Shuo, suddenly moved her fragrant lips to Han Shuo's ear and softly said, "You're quite something!"
Han Shuo was not affected at all. He calmly observed the changes ahead. Behind him, Bolten and the others held their breaths in rapt attention, waiting for Han Shuo's next instruction.
"Listen to my command. Everyone, move back!" Han Shuo suddenly shouted calmly.
Bolten and the others were astonished to hear Han Shuo's words. They did not know why Han Shuo had suddenly ordered them to move back. But at this point in time, they had all pinned their hopes on Han Shuo. They did not say a word but their eyes were resolute, tacitly agreeing to Han Shuo's command.
After waiting for a dozen seconds, Han Shuo suddenly shouted, "Move back, eight steps!"
Bolten and the others did not dare to hesitate. They hastily followed Han Shuo's command and hastily took eight steps back. When they came to a stop, they discovered that the red miasma was once again lingering around them and corroding their bodies.
"Ha, how miraculous!" Bolten cheered. At this point, he no longer had any doubts about Han Shuo. He knew that Han Shuo had indeed grasped the pattern of the miasma.
Donna, who was as close as Han Shuo, could not help but grab Han Shuo's arm. When Han Shuo lowered his head to look at her in puzzlement, she exclaimed, "You really found the pattern!" This exclamation was not doubt but affirmation. It seemed that she had truly believed in Han Shuo.
Han Shuo didn't reply and took another three steps forward. It looked like one step back and one step forward, but the red miasma didn't slip away from their side from beginning to end.
Finally, Han Shuo slowly took five big steps to the right. The surrounding scenery suddenly changed. There was no longer any trace of the miasma. At a glance, they discovered that they had really walked out of the mysterious miasma shrouded place behind them.
"Thud thud!" Bolten and the others followed closely behind and walked out of the Pentacloud Miasma.
The three of them were stunned for a moment before they were overjoyed. Colbert and Bowen were still silent, but their eyes were filled with the joy of escaping death. After laughing heartily for a while, Bolten reluctantly walked towards Han Shuo. After pondering for a moment, he stammered, "Erm, I hope you don't mind if I have offended you before. Hmm, thank you this time! "
For such a proud and arrogant scion of an aristocratic family to humbly thank Han Shuo in front of Donna and the others, it meant that he had indeed made some progress after that near-death experience.
Nodding his head, Han Shuo's expression was the same as usual. He didn't claim credit nor was he arrogant. He said indifferently, "You're too kind. We're all grasshoppers on the same line. If we suffer, we suffer. If we thrive, we thrive.
Seeing that Han Shuo did not say anything to embarrass him by expressing his thanks, Bolten did not say anything, but his heart was filled with gratitude. When he put away his disdainful and hostile gaze towards Han Shuo and looked at Han Shuo with a grateful heart, he suddenly realized that it was indeed as Donna had said. There were many things that they could learn from him.
For example, Han Shuo did not panic in the face of danger. He was even calmer than Donna. Moreover, he had been silently searching for a way to leave and had never given up! Such willpower and perseverance were definitely nurtured after facing life-threatening situations for a long period of time. Bolten still had such foresight.
From the looks of it, Bolten realized that although Han Shuo's strength was not particularly strong, there were some qualities about Han Shuo that determined that Han Shuo would not be an unknown minor character in the future. Bolten was not a mediocre person to be able to come here. After he redefined Han Shuo, his attitude towards Han Shuo underwent a drastic change.
"Haha, it's all thanks to you this time. Otherwise, Bowen and I would not have been able to escape this calamity. Words cannot express our gratitude. After this mission, Brian, I hope that you will visit our family as a guest. We brothers will definitely thank you properly! " The sudden change in Bolten's attitude towards Han Shuo left everyone dumbfounded. The taciturn Bowen was even more puzzled. He could not understand why his elder brother had suddenly become so amiable.
Donna nodded inwardly and shot a surprised glance at Bolten. She thought that this fella wasn't completely useless after all.
After hearing Bolten's words, Han Shuo took a deep look at Bolten. Seeing the sincerity on Bolten's face, Han Shuo pondered for a moment and roughly guessed Bolten's thoughts. He chuckled and said, "There will be a chance!"
"And our family, Brian. You've also saved us. On behalf of our family, I would also like to formally invite you to our family as a guest!" Li Wei giggled and similarly extended an invitation.
Han Shuo was stunned. He suddenly realized that he seemed to have become a hot commodity. For a moment, Han Shuo was not used to these two fellows who had been hostile to him from the very beginning becoming so cordial. Seeing that Li Wei was still staring at him, Han Shuo continued to prevaricate, "Haha, there will be a chance, there will be a chance!"
"Brian, you're really a big shot! Li Wei and Bolten are famous for their arrogance. I didn't expect them to invite you together. Haha! "Donna giggled and teased Han Shuo.
Han Shuo shrugged in a very relaxed manner. With a faint smile on his face, he said, "Alright, alright, let's take a break. There are more difficulties ahead!"
After exiting the Pentacloud Miasma, there was still the Black Gale of Doom below. They were currently at the intersection of the two demonic formations and were temporarily unaffected by the formation. Having gone through the previous round of tempering, the party had more or less exhausted some of their divine energy. Now was not the time to be careless.
"Brian is right. Let's not talk and rest for a while," Donna immediately agreed with Han Shuo and hastily said.
Knowing that there was still a difficult situation ahead, the party did not say anything else. They gathered the elemental energies of heaven and earth and silently recovered their lost energy.
Han Shuo was the only one who was unperturbed. As the miasma did not corrode his protective shield, Han Shuo's demonic yuan consumption was extremely limited and he did not need to spend as much effort to recover. He merely observed Bolten and Bowen in silence.
Both Bolten and Bowen cultivated in the edict of destruction and possessed late-stage lowgod strength. Han Shuo's knowledge of the edict of destruction was limited. As someone who never gave up on any opportunity to improve his strength, Han Shuo's knowledge of the edict of destruction was too poor. Now that there was a chance for him to observe, he would naturally seize it.
Bolten and Bowen unfolded their Domains of Divinity. Their Domains of Divinity were filled with an aura of destruction that distorted the space around them. Affected by the edict of destruction, the surrounding rocks, air, and space seemed to be destroyed. Under the effect of the edict of destruction, the divine energy in their bodies gradually recovered.
Han Shuo's avatar of destruction, which was also a cultivator of the edict of destruction, was meticulously sensing the traces of the operation of the edict of destruction in Bolten and Bowen's Domains of Divinity. He silently memorized them and planned to give them a try in the future.
While Han Shuo was secretly observing Bolten and Bowen, Donna's body had returned to normal. When Han Shuo saw that Donna was the first to recover, Han Shuo hastily withdrew his gaze from Bolten and Bowen.
This kind of behavior was a big taboo. Han Shuo did not want Donna to discover his rude behavior. No one would be willing to be spied on while cultivating because it would expose the weakness of one's energy. It was very likely that the weakness of one's energy would be grasped by others and put one in a disadvantageous position.
Han Shuo's expression remained the same. He smiled at Donna and was about to say something when he suddenly heard a blood-curdling scream from a distance. That scream was unusually mournful, as though it was the last struggle of a person before death.
Han Shuo's brows tightened. Soon after, he said in a mischievous manner, "It seems that some people are in trouble. Judging from the sound, it seems that someone has met with misfortune. This is a great fortune for us! "
"You are the great fortune for us. Without you, we would have met with misfortune just now!" Donna looked at Han Shuo and giggled. It was obvious that Donna was in a good mood because of someone's death.
