If Han Shuo's demonic arts hadn't improved tremendously and if Han Shuo didn't have the Cauldron of Myriad Demon as a shield, he would have had no choice but to flee for his life.
It was obvious that this godhunter crone was unlucky to have run into Han Shuo, whose strength had improved tremendously.
Demonic cultivators had always been adept at devouring at the expense of others. The two avatars that entered the Cauldron of Myriad Demon were completely unaffected by the old woman's death rays. On the other hand, Han Shuo, who had used the devouring property of demonic arts to turn the tables, had turned from a lamb to a butcher!
In an instant, the divine energy in the old woman's body flowed through the death rays that penetrated Han Shuo's shoulders and ankles and back into Han Shuo's body. The sudden and intense pain caught her off guard. She immediately shrieked miserably.
"You … How is this possible?" Despite experiencing such intense pain, her reaction was far inferior to Han Shuo's. Even her speech began to stutter. Her grimacing face made her look even more terrifying.
Han Shuo didn't say a word but stared coldly at the old woman. While she was speaking, the Cauldron of Myriad Demon suddenly flew out and covered her head.
The Cauldron of Myriad Demon immediately formed a magnetic field that could affect one's soul. The old woman, who was about to sever the death rays and escape from Han Shuo's devouring, shrieked even more painfully under the magnetic field. Her voice traveled far and wide. Her grayish-white eyes looked a little dazed as though she couldn't tell what was going on.
Han Shuo suddenly closed his eyes and focused all of his attention. After the Cauldron of Myriad Demon left his body, the demonic yuan in his body began to circulate at an accelerated rate. With the help of the death rays, he rapidly extracted the divine energy of death from the old woman's body. Han Shuo's avatar of death that had escaped from the Cauldron of Myriad Demon quickly recovered that portion of divine energy.
Han Shuo sneered in his mind. He did not expect that he would run into such a ferocious godhunter so soon after arriving on Elysium. Fortunately, Han Shuo had concealed his strength. His misfortune had turned into fortune. This old woman was a midgod of death. Han Shuo believed that as long as he could devour all the divine energy in her body, the strength of his avatar would skyrocket.
Unlike his avatar that cultivated in the edict of destruction, his avatar that cultivated in the elemental energy of death had once fused with the pure divine soul of a midgod in the Abyss. With the understanding of the element of death from that divine soul, Han Shuo would be able to advance his cultivation in an extremely short period of time once he had sufficient divine energy to replenish himself!
The Cauldron of Myriad Demon shrouded the old woman from afar. Using the power of the demon generals in the Cauldron of Myriad Demon, the Cauldron of Myriad Demon formed a magnetic field above her head that affected the clarity of her soul. Under the influence of the Cauldron of Myriad Demon, her soul was in a daze, unable to discern what was going on. All she could do was let Han Shuo do whatever he wanted.
"What powerful divine energy of death! As expected of a midgod!" Han Shuo was overjoyed when he sensed the influx of divine energy from the old woman's body. He began to enjoy the process even more effortlessly!
"Brian, that friend of yours is in trouble. Also, some people are coming this way!" Cauldron Spirit suddenly transmitted while Brian was enjoying the wonderful state.
In an instant, through the mystical demons released by Cauldron Spirit, Han Shuo discovered that a group of people were chasing after Akley. The one leading the group was a middle-aged man cultivating in the edict of destruction. He possessed late-stage lowgod strength. Behind him were two other gods cultivating in the edict of darkness and a few lesser gods who were slightly weaker than him.
With just a glance, Han Shuo immediately realized that they were those who had been chasing after Akley. However, Han Shuo had no idea how they managed to locate Akley so quickly.
On the other side, the targets of the godhunters who had previously fled were rapidly approaching Han Shuo's location along with Dolores after hearing the miserable shrieks of the old woman beside him.
Whether it was Akley's side or Dolores' side, both would hinder Han Shuo's grand plan of devouring the old woman. Dolores' side was especially so. Godhunters were hated and hated by everyone. Han Shuo's current actions were no different from those godhunters, even though his target was also a godhunter!
If Dolores were to see what Han Shuo was doing, no matter how close Dolores was to Donna, he would have no choice but to deal with Han Shuo under the watchful eyes of so many people. Moreover, from that moment onwards, Han Shuo's name would forever be branded as a godhunter.
No family clan would dare to openly recruit a godhunter no matter how powerful they were. It would be extremely detrimental to Han Shuo's future development. Han Shuo absolutely did not wish to see such an outcome! "Kill!
You take the soul and I will destroy the corpse! "Han Shuo decisively conveyed his intentions to Cauldron Spirit.
"Alright!" Cauldron Spirit immediately agreed and put into action. The Cauldron of Myriad Demon that had been hovering above the old woman's head all this time suddenly descended and clamped down on her head.
Han Shuo gave up on sucking the divine energy from the old woman's body and suddenly advanced. Demonic flames erupted from his palms and engulfed her entire body.
The peculiar patterns on the surface of the Cauldron of Myriad Demon gradually began to overflow with beautiful green radiance. Strange ripples flowed from the old woman's neck into the Cauldron of Myriad Demon. Han Shuo could clearly feel the old woman's soul being sucked away.
Under the burning of the red flames of the Mystical Glacial Spellfire, the godhunter's body was charred black and her original appearance was no longer recognizable. After the Cauldron of Myriad Demon pulled her divine soul into the Cauldron of Myriad Demon, Han Shuo flung her charred body towards the cliff ahead.
Han Shuo did not linger for even a moment. He deployed his demonic arts to the fullest and flew towards Akley like an invisible shadow.
Two minutes after Han Shuo left, Dolores arrived with a group of divine guards. After coldly surveying the surroundings, Dolores bunched his brows and asked in puzzlement, "The voice clearly came from this place. Where did that godhunter go?"
"Chia!" A young woman cried out in alarm. She pounced towards the lowgod of death that the old woman killed and cried out in pain.
"My Lord, that godhunter must have known that you were coming and escaped!" one of the divine guards said to Dolores.
"Form groups of three and spread out. Search the area! Once you see that person, immediately shout the alarm but do not stray too far from here! "Dolores commanded.
The divine guards were all well-trained. Upon hearing the command, they split into groups of three and spread out with Dolores at the center. They began searching.
Soon enough, a long howl sounded from the depths of the cliff. Dolores' face jolted and he suddenly fell down the cliff. Soon, he arrived at the bottom of the cliff and saw the body of the old woman that Han Shuo had abandoned.
Dolores walked towards the charred body of the old woman, squatted down, and stabbed the body with his spear a few times. Suddenly, his face jolted and he exclaimed in a deep voice, "It's her! That godhunter is dead! How is this possible? Who killed her? "
"Wha, what?" the sobbing woman walked over and asked in disbelief.
"According to your description, this body is definitely that of the godhunter who pursued you. I can't believe that someone killed her!" Dolores was very astonished. He suddenly asked, "Did you say that there was a third person in Chia's direction?"
"That's right, we heard the voice of a third person. However, as we were busy fleeing, we did not hear what he said clearly!" the woman replied.
"My Lord, what should we do?" one of the divine guards asked worriedly.
"Let's drag her body back first. As for the person who killed her, we will slowly investigate him. He might not be malicious!" Dolores hesitated for a moment before he said, "Everyone, do not spread out. Be careful!"
To be able to kill a mid-stage lowgod in such a short period of time, just how powerful must such a person be? Dolores felt a chill in his heart after making a few guesses. He did not dare to rashly search the area to avoid unnecessary casualties. These subordinates were all Dolores' subordinates and he did not wish for any accidents to happen.
"My Lord, then … then wouldn't Chia have died in vain?" the woman whose friend had died made a ruckus while sobbing.
"What are you arguing about?" Dolores' face turned cold and he impatiently said, "Isn't this godhunter dead? As for who killed her, that's not important at all! What else do you want? "Dolores looked at the divine guards beside him and shouted," Return! "
Those few youngsters whose friends had died looked at each other and could only sigh helplessly. In order to avoid becoming the target of other godhunters, they had no choice but to hastily follow Dolores and his party.

"Akley, tell us everything and we will spare your life!" The burly man who cultivated in the edict of destruction said in a deep voice after he and his party of five surrounded Akley and ensured that Akley would not be able to escape.
"Bonny, when have you ever fulfilled your promises? Hehe, tell us everything and you will spare my life? Who do you think you are trying to fool? "Akley sneered and ridiculed in the face of such a sure-death situation. He did not appear flustered at all.
"Brother, it's not like you don't know Akley's temper. There's nothing to say to him. Let's just kill him and take his things. That would be the best!" another person said hatefully.
"Idiot, if I hadn't torn apart a portion of the scroll and memorized its contents, do you think your brother would have wasted so much time talking to me?" Akley looked at the person who came up with the idea disdainfully.
"You, you are courting death!" Akley, who had suffered greatly in Akley's hands, couldn't help but fly into a rage.
"Shut up!" Bonny stopped that person and took a deep breath. His face grew colder and colder. He stared at Akley and asked, "Akley, are you really not going to tell us anything even if you die?"
"I'm going to die whether I tell you or not. Why should I let you have your way?" Akley laughed mischievously. His eyes gradually revealed the color of insanity. "But before I die, I will definitely drag one more person down with me. Do you believe me?"
"Everyone, be careful. We must capture him alive. As long as we bring him back to the Blue Ocean Continent, the patriarch will have a way to extract everything from his soul!" Bonny waved his hand. Not only did the party not press forward, they even retreated step by step.
That fella seems to be done for. Otherwise, he would have arrived long ago! Akley thought to himself before he lost his mind. He didn't believe that Han Shuo could really escape from a midgod.
"I'll be the main attacker. You guys keep him busy. Akley is a lunatic. Be careful!" Bonny said again. He was secretly pondering on how to capture Akley alive. After chasing Akley for so long, Bonny knew that Akley would not hesitate to drag a few people down with him once he knew that he was dead for sure. He was one of those troublesome characters who would rather die than let others live peacefully. Although Bonny's strength was slightly higher than Akley's, it would still be a headache to capture Akley alive.
Akley was surrounded in the center. With his heavily injured body, there was absolutely no hope of him surviving. Under such circumstances, Akley no longer held any hope in his heart. All he wanted was to kill one or two of them before he died. He secretly displayed the technique of mutual destruction, prepared to destroy himself the moment the battle began and gravely injure his opponents.
"Akley, don't be impulsive. I can save you!" Han Shuo's voice suddenly sounded in his ears.
Akley, who was ready to destroy himself, raised his eyebrows and cried out in surprise, "You're not dead?"
"Why would we die? You're the one who's going to die!" that person who had suffered at Akley's hands sneered.
"Don't talk and don't move. Maintain this posture and don't move!" Han Shuo reminded Akley to quieten down.
"Do it!" Bonny lightly shouted. In an instant, he unfolded his Domain of Divinity. All kinds of elemental energies around him were affected by the Domain of Divinity.
Right at this moment, a multi-colored banner that looked like a dark cloud floated over from an unknown place and suddenly fell from the sky.
"Brother, what, what is this?!"
"Hurry up and take down Akley. Someone else is interfering. Akley must have found help!" Bonny shouted and dashed towards the motionless Akley.
However, the speed at which the Banner of Hallucination descended was faster than they had imagined. When Bonny dashed towards Akley, he suddenly felt as though the sky and earth were spinning. He suddenly lost his sense of direction. A faint mist had unknowingly filled his surroundings, preventing him from seeing his surroundings clearly.
Akley, who was at the center of the mist, was on tenterhooks when he suddenly discovered that he was being crudely grabbed by the neck and lifted up. Having been tormented by Han Shuo, Akley immediately knew that Han Shuo was really coming.
"Let's go!" Han Shuo chuckled and swiftly disappeared into the faint mist. He soon disappeared from this area. The Banner of Hallucination followed him lightly and was retrieved by him.
"Man? Where's he? Where's Akley? " The faint mist gradually dispersed. When Bonny and the others could clearly see their surroundings, they suddenly discovered that their target had long since disappeared without a trace.
"We left a mark on him. He can't escape!" Bonny took out a sharp horn and pointed it at his chest. He took a few deep breaths and pointed in the direction that Han Shuo had left. He shouted, "Follow me!"
"So they left a mark on you. No wonder. I was wondering how they could find you so quickly!" Han Shuo smiled and said to Akley, whose head was drooping.
"What mark?" Akley was startled and hastily asked. After hearing Han Shuo's words, he also realized that something was amiss.
"We will know very soon. Don't worry." Han Shuo smiled faintly and consoled Akley. He was secretly contemplating whether or not he should seize this opportunity to finish off those people. After thinking for a moment, he felt that it was better for them to stay alive so that Akley would be more reliant on him. Hence, he gave up on the idea of turning back and killing them.
