When Han Shuo stepped into the portal and walked out, he discovered that he had arrived in a valley. The valley was shrouded in lingering clouds and was surrounded by cliffs. On the cliffs, there were many bottomless caves leading to who knows where. The ground beneath his feet was very hard because it was mixed with rock fragments.
Those who had entered the portal earlier were also pacing around the valley. Eunice and Barnett were together and were whispering to each other. They were probably trying to come up with a suitable solution for their current predicament.
Han Shuo unfolded his consciousness and just as he was about to probe the surroundings, he immediately sensed the presence of a boundary deep in the clouds above his head. The boundary, which emanated an obvious aura of destruction, was surprisingly able to detect the probing of Han Shuo's consciousness. The clouds and mist in the area where Han Shuo's consciousness was roaming suddenly started to churn.
Han Shuo was alarmed and immediately withdrew his consciousness. He did not know if his consciousness could penetrate the boundary but when he saw that the boundary could detect his consciousness, he did not dare to continue taking the risk lest the owner of the place retaliated.
Behind Han Shuo, those godhunters who had obviously fallen into depravity walked out of the portal one after another. As soon as they walked out of the portal, their eyes became more and more excited. They looked at Han Shuo and the others with ferocious gazes as though they were looking at their prey.
Rahman was the last to walk out of the Dimensional Gate. He was probably the last to collect the Dimensional Gate and the dark golden orb that contained the Orb of Destruction, so that the Croton family of Fort Verka would not be able to find any traces of their disappearance.
After walking out of the portal, Rahman immediately searched for traces of Eunice. When he saw Eunice, he couldn't help but chuckle mischievously. No one knew what was going through his mind. His face was filled with obscenity.
"Welcome to one of the strongholds of our Godhunter Alliance. Here, I would like to introduce to you our leader who cultivates in the edict of destruction, Lord Brovst!" Rahman raised his voice and shouted towards an enormous cave at the side of the valley.
"Rahman, it's been hard on you!" Suddenly, a voice came from inside the cave.
"It is my honor to serve Lord Brovst!" Rahman dared not claim credit for himself. He raised his voice and said, "I have brought nearly all those who cultivate in the edict of destruction from Fort Verka with me. Do you have any other instructions, My Lord?"
"Very good! Come in and take what you deserve. Hand over the two divine tools I gave you! "Brovst shouted from inside the cave. He was nowhere to be seen.
Rahman was overjoyed. He put away the other spatial door behind him and leaped into the cave.
Although Han Shuo couldn't see Brovst's face or sense his aura, he was certain that Brovst was a formidable highgod. Han Shuo was certain that Brovst was the master of the dark golden sphere.
This was because a Midgod definitely couldn't create so many Orbs of Destruction. Moreover, every Orb of Destruction contained such powerful Destruction divine energy!
Very soon, Rahman returned. He seemed to have gotten what he wanted and appeared to be even more excited.
"Lord Brovst said that as long as you cultivators of the energy of destruction devour the divine energy of one of the people around you, you will be considered one of us, and you will be allowed to leave this valley alive! Otherwise, only death awaits you! "Rahman stood at the entrance of the cave and announced.
Upon hearing those words, Tanai Mountain and the others' faces jolted. They vigilantly distanced themselves from the people around them, fearing that someone might suddenly attack them.
Han Shuo had long anticipated that this would be the outcome. That Brovst had gone through so much trouble to have Rahman gather all those who cultivated in the edict of destruction here for no other reason than to kill them all. According to what Rahman had said in the shop, the number of godhunters cultivating in the edict of destruction was the least. Brovst must have been short on manpower and that was why he had instructed Han Shuo, a cultivator of the edict of darkness, to carry out this task. From this, it could be seen that Brovst was severely lacking in manpower.
Han Shuo, who had once devoured that old woman with the energy of death, had personally experienced that feeling. He knew that anyone who took that step would find it very difficult to resist the terrifying desire that would constantly surge in their heart. In the end, they would join the godhunter faction and become one of them.
After all, not many people were like Han Shuo, who had been struggling with their willpower ever since they started cultivating demonic arts. They were not Han Shuo and could not resist that terrifying temptation!
Brovst was well aware of that and that was why he had given the order. He also believed that once someone had a taste of that feeling, they would find it hard to give up and would eventually become a godhunter and serve him.
Rahman's words undoubtedly set off a huge wave of commotion among the people in the valley. After Rahman's words faded, a huge scroll suddenly descended from the cloudy sky. The scroll recorded the detailed method of using the power of destruction to engulf those of the same attribute.
In the valley, those who had yet to become godhunters had never visited Rahman's scroll shop before. Almost none of them knew how to use the energy of destruction to devour those of the same energy. When the enormous scroll descended, many of them were bewildered and bewildered.
After observing for a moment, Han Shuo discovered that under the threat of death and the temptation of growing stronger, a portion of them had begun to memorize the contents of the scroll. The method of devouring one's own kind wasn't difficult. With the correct guidance, almost anyone could master it.
Those who had their eyes on the scroll and were silently memorizing the method would definitely become the godhunter's kin in the future. Those who remained firm in their stand were constantly gnawing away at their willpower and gradually began to waver.
If it weren't for the threat of death, at least a large portion of those present would have disregarded the contents of the scroll. After all, godhunters were the public enemy of the entire Elysium and were despised by everyone. But under the threat of death, if they resisted, it would mean that they would disappear forever. They had to think carefully.
"I will be watching your every move. Don't worry, I will help you subdue those who dare to take action, even if your opponent is stronger than you! I can guarantee that as long as you are determined to become one of us, not only will you not die, but you will also grow stronger at an even faster rate! " Brovst, who was in the cave, once again guaranteed, giving those who were hesitant even greater resolve.
"Divine essences are something that can only be found by chance, but those who cultivate in the same energy can be found everywhere. They are all living divine essences. Imagine the wonderful process of using the energy of others to boost your own strength. How delightful and enjoyable it is …" Rahman was more like a lobbyist. After Brovst finished his words, he began to talk incessantly, trying to bewitch those who were hesitant.
With Brovst and Rahman working together, Han Shuo discovered that those who were hesitant were visibly influenced. They also began to memorize the contents of the scroll and surreptitiously tried to utilize the energy within their bodies.
The atmosphere in Tanai Mountain suddenly became extremely strange. Everyone secretly distanced themselves from others. Even those who were once friends grew vigilant. At this moment, there was no one around them that they could trust. Everyone could become their enemy.
Those who were originally in a group gradually grew more and more distant from each other. On the contrary, those true godhunters huddled together. They wore cold and indifferent smiles on the corners of their mouths as they observed the actions of those around them. They seemed to find it very amusing.
"You, what are you all doing?!" Eunice, who was with Barnett, shouted in a somewhat panicked voice when she discovered that the situation was not in her favor.
Nobody paid any attention to her!
Even the guards from the Croton Family silently moved away from the two of them. Their eyes flickered indeterminately. Perhaps, only they themselves knew what they were secretly thinking.
At this moment, Han Shuo was rather restless. He wasn't afraid that those around him would suddenly change their temperament, but rather that he didn't know what method he could use to get out of Tanai Mountain.
With a terrifying highgod like Brovst present, it would be nearly impossible for Han Shuo to force his way out of the valley. If he were to summon earth elite zombie or metal elite zombie, it would be equally troublesome if Brovst were to target him.
The only way to ensure that he could escape was to use the Demonic Blood Disassembly. But to use the Demonic Blood Disassembly to escape would greatly damage his vitality. Unless it was absolutely necessary, Han Shuo was not willing to use this last resort.
Curiosity killed the cat! Han Shuo inwardly blamed himself. He clearly knew that it would be dangerous, but he still insisted on joining. If he had used the earth elite zombie to leave through the underground of the training field, Han Shuo believed that no one would be able to stop him. But things were different now that he had Brovst.
Should I use the energy of destruction to devour one of them and find an opportunity to escape? No! Unless I kill everyone here, even if I can resist the terrifying temptation, I will never be able to get rid of my identity as a godhunter once the godhunters divulge my identity! Han Shuo was stuck between a rock and a hard place as he racked his brains for a way to resolve his current predicament.
A muffled groan sounded in the valley, so quiet that one could hear a pin drop. Han Shuo, who'd been racking his brains for a solution, looked over and saw a person stumbling, as if he'd been ambushed.
"Who is it? Who is it? " He continued to turn around, glaring angrily at everyone around him. The green spear in his hand swayed back and forth. When he turned around, Han Shuo discovered that there was a small green arrow stuck in his back. The wound was bleeding profusely, and it looked like there was still a large amount of poison on the arrow.
"My apologies, Anli. I know that you have always loathed godhunters and will never be one of us. Since you are going to die, why don't you give me a chance to live? " A skinny young man with a scar on his face sheepishly took out an exquisite crossbow and aimed it at Han Shuo. The divine energy of destruction in his body flowed into the crossbow.
"Lager, it's actually you! I once saved your life and now you are the one who ambushed me! " Anli, who was shot by the arrow, stared at his assailant in disbelief. His eyes were wide open and it was obvious that he was extremely furious.
"Yes, I have always been grateful to you. That's why I asked you to save me again. I think you will be glad to do so! Goodbye, Anli. I will remember the two times you saved my life! " The skinny youth called Lager shot out three small arrows in quick succession. Each arrow was imbued with the power of destruction.
Anli, who had already been hit by Lager's sneak attack, was obviously not very agile anymore. At such a close distance, and with Lager's full strength, he could only dodge two of the three small arrows in the end. Another arrow pierced his chest.
At the same time, Lager suddenly charged at Anli, who had been shot by two arrows. He took the opportunity to punch Anli twice. Violent energy surged into Anli's body and knocked him to the ground.
"Everyone, he's mine. Do as you please, but don't fight with me for him!" Lager, who had his hands pressed against Anli's back, raised his head and grinned at the crowd. His smile was very bright, but it sent a chill down everyone's spine.
A person who could attack his savior so decisively and viciously without the slightest bit of remorse was definitely insane. It was no wonder that he was the first to attack Anli!
This kind of person was usually the most feared. Under his bright smile, the crowd subconsciously took a few steps back, as though to express their attitude.
"Dammit, there's actually such a person!" Even those who had become godhunters started to feel disgusted by his actions and started cursing. Godhunters couldn't help but feel tempted by the act of devouring. Other than involuntarily attacking cultivators of the same element, they weren't much different from ordinary cultivators. They had their own emotions and they had their own circle of friends. Therefore, they also found it unbearable to see such an insane person.
The space around Lager automatically parted to create a larger space. He started devouring his savior, Anli, as though there was no one else around him. Amidst Anli's wails and howls, that gentle smiling Lager seemed to become more and more malevolent in the eyes of the crowd!
"Give me half of it, so that I don't have to hunt for more prey!" Suddenly, an untimely chuckle sounded from a corner.
The crowd was shocked to hear those words. They thought, Who could be so bold as to provoke Lager? With this in mind, everyone subconsciously looked in the direction of the sound.
Under the crowd's gazes, Han Shuo leisurely strolled out. The smile on his face was even more sincere than Lager's. Looking at Lager from afar, he continued, "You are a person who knows how to repay favors. I'm sure you won't mind!"
"Interesting, interesting!" Lager clapped his hands and laughed heartily. He looked at Han Shuo and said, "But you'd better hurry up. If you're any later, you won't get a share!"
"In that case, it would be impolite of me to refuse!" Han Shuo let out a long laugh. He suddenly sped up and charged straight at Lager.
"I'll be waiting!" Lager stopped devouring the dying Anli and suddenly stood up. He rapidly aimed his crossbow at Han Shuo. Lager possessed the strength of a mid-stage lowgod. In the eyes of many onlookers, he was extremely dangerous. His vicious temperament made people even more apprehensive.
Han Shuo did not reply. He dashed at lightning speed towards Lager. It was obvious that he knew Lager would make such an unfriendly move.
