"Oh?" Han Shuo looked at the shop assistant with interest, unable to guess what she meant. He asked with a smile, "How did you know I would be interested?"
"You have enough crystal coins and care so much about the power of destruction. I believe you wouldn't mind spending a large sum of money to buy a scroll that you really need. I can guarantee you that my scroll is more useful than anything here! "The young girl was unhurried as she said with a smile.
"How much are you selling your scroll for? I'll say this first, if it's not worth that price, I'll ask for a refund! "Han Shuo said as he stared at her after thinking for a moment.
"No problem. If you don't think it's worth it, I'm willing to return the crystal coins to you!" The young girl was full of confidence. She looked left and right to ensure that no one was paying attention to her before carefully taking out a yellowed divine scroll. This scroll looked like it had been repeatedly flipped through.
"Forty purple crystal coins, not one less!" The young girl waved the scroll in front of Han Shuo and said with a stern expression.
"Here, forty purple crystal coins, here you go!" Han Shuo took out forty purple crystal coins and handed them to her, thinking that the price of this scroll was really high. Forty purple crystal coins could be exchanged for a lot of things. It wasn't a small amount.
"I'll give you the scroll. You won't be disappointed, I promise!" The young girl handed the yellowed scroll to Han Shuo, full of confidence.
Han Shuo didn't know where the young girl's confidence came from. He opened the scroll and quickly memorized the contents on it. The yellowed divine scroll was suddenly burned to ashes.
"There's no way I can return it now!" The young girl hurriedly argued when she saw Han Shuo burn the divine scroll to ashes.
"Those forty purple crystal coins belong to you!" Han Shuo said in a deep voice as he looked deeply at the young girl.
"Do you still want to look at other things?" The young girl smiled lightly and pointed to the other scrolls below the barrier.
"No need!" Han Shuo shook his head and pondered for a moment before asking again, "How did you get the scroll you sold me?"
"I'm sorry, I can't tell you about that!" The young girl put on a vigilant face and reminded Han Shuo, "You don't need to know where it came from. I don't know what's written on it, so there's no point asking me!"
Han Shuo nodded and sized her up a few more times before saying, "Goodbye!"
The scroll that the young girl sold recorded the method to devour the energy of a god of destruction. Han Shuo didn't understand why she would sell it.
The method to devour the energy of a god of the same element was very easy even without guidance. However, it wasn't easy to grasp the method of devouring the four great edictal forces. Every element was different, and if one didn't know anything about it, they wouldn't be able to devour even if a god of the same element was placed in front of them.
Only the godhunters knew how to devour the four edictal forces. They were the targets of persecution across Elysium. Most people had no chance of learning it.
What surprised Han Shuo was that the divine scroll in the girl's hand actually recorded the detailed usage of the devouring power of destruction. Therefore, Han Shuo only glanced at it once before immediately burning it to ashes. After all, this kind of thing was clearly forbidden.
Han Shuo wasn't sure if the girl knew the contents of the scroll. She cultivated the power of darkness, and her strength was too low. Logically speaking, she shouldn't have been able to understand what was written on the scroll. However, when she sold the scroll to Han Shuo, she was very confident. It was as if she knew the contents of the scroll. This made Han Shuo very confused.
With such doubts in mind, Han Shuo left the scroll shop, but left a mystical demon there to observe the situation.
In just half a day's time, Han Shuo discovered that the girl had sold a few more scrolls to other people using the same method. They were all cultivators of the edict of destruction. She seemed to have an endless supply of scrolls. Based on the mystical demon's observation, Han Shuo discovered that the scrolls she sold contained exactly the same content as the one he bought with forty purple crystal coins. They were all about the usage of the devouring power of destruction.
Han Shuo grew suspicious of this young lady. One of his mystical demons followed her closely. He discovered that when night fell, she met a sinister old man behind the shop. That old man was sitting on an armchair that was constantly rocking. He possessed mid-stage midgod strength of darkness. He narrowed his eyes and coldly looked at the young lady.
The girl who was smiling in front of Han Shuo suddenly put on a fearful face when she saw that old man. She respectfully reported, "Lord Rahman, we have sold a total of seven scrolls today."
The old man named Rahman put on a sinister smile and said, "That's right. Seven in total. How many do you think will succumb to the temptation and become the new blood of our Godhunter Alliance?"
"I have no idea!" The girl shook her head.
"Haha, this is a very interesting guess. I look forward to it! If it wasn't for the fact that the devouring power of destruction is rather difficult to master, we wouldn't have to do this. There are too few cultivators of the edict of destruction in the Alliance. We have no choice but to use this method to recruit new blood. Those who are usually oppressed only follow the rules because they haven't mastered the devouring power of destruction. But once they learn how to use the energy of destruction to devour those of the same energy, the temptation will nibble away at their willpower and make them fall to our side, "said Rahman with a sinister smile.
"My Lord, there are some who have started to suspect me after seeing the devouring method on the scrolls. If they were to report us to the House of Croton, I'm afraid that we will be in trouble!" said the girl worriedly after pondering for a moment.
"Don't worry, I have already dealt with those people. There won't be any trouble. Besides, this little Fort Verka doesn't have many true experts. Even if we are discovered, we can easily escape, "said Rahman calmly. Rahman was calm and unruffled. As soon as he finished speaking, he let out a low, lascivious laugh and pulled the girl into his arms. Very quickly, he stripped her naked and made her ride on his waist with her legs spread wide open. Then, she began rocking with the support of the chair.
Han Shuo recalled his mystical demons and understood the whole story.
He didn't expect that the godhunters would also form an alliance. Rahman's task was to recruit new godhunters. It was easy for gods cultivating in elemental energy to devour the energy of others. But it was somewhat more troublesome for gods cultivating in the edict of four edicts. In order to recruit more gods cultivating in the edict of destruction, Rahman and Rahman adopted the method of devouring power, waiting for some of them to succumb to the temptation and throw themselves into the arms of the godhunters.
This was the first time Han Shuo had heard of the Godhunter Alliance. Donna had never mentioned it to him before. The godhunters could be said to be the public enemy of Elysium. Any Overgod in their Dominions would go all out to eliminate this group of lunatics. If they were to make even the slightest mistake in a major city, they would face a devastating attack.
Every city had a sufficient number of divine guards and powerful leaders. Those godhunters wouldn't dare to recruit new blood so recklessly in major cities. Only in strongholds like Verka, where the defenses weren't as tight, would they be able to easily escape even if they were exposed. They wouldn't be caught and killed on the spot.
Rahman was one of them. Han Shuo didn't know how high his position in the Godhunter Alliance was. In addition to the fact that Rahman cultivated in the elemental energy of darkness, Han Shuo wasn't too interested in him.
Although the Godhunter Alliance was extremely vicious, they had never harmed Han Shuo in any way. Therefore, after learning the ins and outs of the matter, Han Shuo didn't pay too much attention to them and didn't intend to get involved in their business.
Han Shuo silently recalled the mystical demon that had crossed Rahman's barrier of darkness. Instead of immediately setting off for the City of Shadows, Han Shuo found a gymnasium and stayed there for the time being. He wanted to study how to condense and attack the Orb of Destruction.
As long as one paid enough crystal coins, one could use any of the many training fields in Fort Verka. Han Shuo used three purple crystal coins to rent a training field that covered an area of a thousand square meters and was equipped with an isolation boundary. The lease was for half a year.
According to the method of condensing the Orb of Destruction written on the scroll, Han Shuo used two months to successfully compress the divine energy in his body and form an Orb that emitted intense energy of destruction. The Orb was only the size of a palm and was pitch-black in color. There seemed to be liquid divine energy flowing within it.
After successfully condensing the Orb of Destruction, one-fifth of the divine energy in Han Shuo's body was extracted and concentrated on the edict of destruction. Han Shuo tried to manipulate the Orb of Destruction according to the trajectory of the edict of destruction recorded on the scroll but couldn't get the hang of it. He knew that the person who made the scroll had deliberately distorted some of the details so that people wouldn't be able to unleash the full might of the Orb of Destruction.
Han Shuo's consciousness was powerful and he was very patient. He believed that as long as he kept experimenting with the Orb of Destruction using the marvelous power of his consciousness, he would be able to find the most appropriate way to use it.
On this day, as Han Shuo was still experimenting with new ways to manipulate the Orb of Destruction in the gymnasium, a jingle suddenly sounded in front of the gymnasium.
Han Shuo immediately sent his avatar of destruction into the Cauldron of Myriad Demon. Puzzled, he went to the gymnasium and asked, "Zoya, didn't I say that no one is allowed to disturb me?"
"My apologies, there are a few lords who wish to see you," said Zoya helplessly. He was in charge of this gymnasium. According to the rules, as long as the user paid the required fee, they shouldn't disturb the user.
"You are Brian. You cultivate in the energy of destruction, right?" Asked a graceful young woman with long red hair that cascaded down her back. She took a deep look at Han Shuo before asking.
"That's right. What can I do for you?" Asked Han Shuo puzzledly. He could tell that this woman also cultivated in the energy of destruction and was a late-stage lowgod. Her realm was slightly higher than that of Han Shuo's avatar.
"Recently, many cultivators of the edict of destruction in Fort Verka had their divine energy devoured and died. Those people must have died in the hands of cultivators of the edict of destruction. I have been ordered to investigate any suspicious individuals. Come with me!" She explained briefly before she turned around and walked towards the exit. The divine guards behind her gestured for Han Shuo to follow them.
