After hesitating for a moment, Han Shuo decided to tell the truth, "Those who cultivate in the edict of life have great advantages and conveniences in nature. So far, I have only discovered this one anomaly. What we can do next is to explore and see if we can find any other traces."
"Is that so? Alright then, let's move forward from here and explore deeper into the Miasma Cloud Mountain Range." Carmelita understood that those who cultivate in the edict of life were indeed very difficult to deal with. In addition to the fact that Han Shuo had already proven his abilities, she did not feel that Han Shuo was incapable. Therefore, she immediately agreed with Han Shuo.
The party continued venturing deeper into the Miasma Cloud Mountain Range. The demon generals that Han Shuo released continued to extend outwards with this region as the center, carefully observing every rock that might contain any clues.
As they traveled a hundred miles into the Miasma Cloud Mountain Range, they encountered many powerful magical beasts along the way. But under the protection of the divine guards of the House of Sainte, those powerful magical beasts kept their distance. They did not dare to provoke this group of terrifyingly powerful gods.
After the demon generals spread out, they continued to fly all over the Miasma Cloud Mountain Range. However, they could not find any traces of those people. Carmelita started to get annoyed when she saw that they had arrived at the center of the mountain range. The miasma was getting thicker and thicker.
"Have you found anything yet?" Karina asked Han Shuo again. She was gradually losing her patience. Seeing that there was no trace of those people, she was clearly getting anxious.
"The Miasma Cloud Mountain Range is too vast. It's impossible to find any clues so quickly." Han Shuo bunched his brows. He felt very helpless that his demon generals could not find any traces of those people. However, there was really nothing he could do.
"My Lady, how about we split up? That way, we can cover a larger area, "Karina hesitated for a moment before she asked for Carmelita's opinion.
"No. If we split up, our chances of finding them will increase. But if we run into them, it will be too dangerous. Perhaps they will be killed by those people before they can send out any information," Carmelita flatly rejected. She sighed helplessly and said, "Let's continue searching. Who knows, we might find some clues very soon."
Karina did not insist. She too let out a sigh and the party followed behind Han Shuo. They started to wander aimlessly around the mountain range.
Before he knew it, another five days had passed. Although Han Shuo had yet to explore the entire Miasma Cloud Mountain Range, with the help of those demon generals, he had explored every region of the mountain range. However, he did not discover anyone cultivating in the energy of life. All the demon generals found were some magical beasts wandering all over the place and some rare treasures of heaven and earth.
Gradually, not only was Carina getting fed up, even Han Shuo himself felt that this wasn't the way to go on. He even started to doubt the reliability of Carina's information, and even suspected that those people had long since left the mountain range. Carmelita, on the other hand, had run out of patience. Along the way, whenever she felt agitated, she would randomly blast the surrounding mountains and ancient trees, making it even more difficult for the demon general to observe her.
"Perhaps those people are really gone. Come, let's leave this place." After another day, Carmelita lost her patience and officially gave the order to leave. Everyone heaved a sigh of relief when she said that. They had long been unwilling to continue doing useless work in the Miasma Cloud Mountain Range.
Carmelita made up her mind. No one had any objections and they prepared to leave the Miasma Cloud Mountain Range.
"Wait!" Han Shuo, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly spoke just as everyone was about to fly into the sky and use the airship to return.
"What's wrong?" Carmelita rolled her triangular eyes and looked at Han Shuo doubtfully. She asked, "We haven't found anything in the past ten days. Could it be that we have found something before we leave?"
"There is a large cave on a lush mountain in front of us. Magical beasts are constantly coming out of it. I didn't pay attention to it before, but now that I think about it, could there be something strange in that cave?" With the help of a demon general, Han Shuo discovered that even more magical beasts were gradually coming out of the cave. He immediately became suspicious. Judging from the behavior of those magical beasts, it seemed that they had been chased out by force.
"Oh, now that you mention it, I remember now. Some of the small mountains in the Miasma Cloud Mountain Range have sparse vegetation, but that mountain is a little strange. The vegetation on it is very lush. Are you talking about that mountain?" The one-eyed fat woman, Karina, took the opportunity to ask. She also seemed a little surprised.
"Yes, that's the mountain!" Han Shuo said doubtfully. "The vegetation on that mountain is so lush. It seems a little special. Also, the magical beasts in that cave seem to have been chased out. It seems a little strange inside. We have explored so many places in the Miasma Cloud Mountain Range, but we haven't found any traces. Could it be that those people are hiding in a cave on one of the mountain peaks? "
Upon hearing Han Shuo's words, Carmelita, who had given the order to leave, had her hopes reignited. After thinking for a moment, she nodded and said, "What you said makes sense. Come, let's go and take a look. Perhaps there really is something strange in that cave."
Under Carmelita's instructions, the party returned to the mountain peak they had passed. When they arrived at the entrance of the cave, they could clearly see some oddly-shaped magical beasts walking out of the cave one after another. Some of the magical beasts appeared to be panic-stricken and immediately dispersed when they saw Carmelita and the others.
The magical beasts on Elysium were much more powerful than those on Profound Continent. However, their intelligence seemed to be the same. For some reason, although they had long surpassed rank five or even rank six or seven, Han Shuo hadn't seen many of them that could take human form.
In the blink of an eye, the magical beasts scattered in all directions. One of Han Shuo's demon generals took the opportunity to burrow into the cave. The demon generals that entered the cave soon discovered that there were more magical beasts leaving the cave. There were many paths in the cave and no one knew where they led to.
"Let's go in and take a look. This place is really strange." Carmelita led the way into the cave. The party, including Han Shuo, followed closely behind her.
The cave was extremely spacious. Not long after they entered, they came to a fork in the road. Carmelita didn't know how big the cave was but she felt that there shouldn't be any danger inside. She finally agreed to split up and investigate after Karina suggested that they should immediately shout for help if they discovered any abnormalities.
With two forks in the road, Karina volunteered to lead a team of divine guards. Han Shuo naturally followed Carmelita. Gradually, new forks appeared in front of the party. At Carmelita's signal, a few more people split up from the party.
As more forks appeared, the number of divine guards around Han Shuo gradually decreased. In the end, only Han Shuo, Carmelita, and two divine guards continued to advance. At this point, they didn't run into any more forks.
The other demon generals that were roaming around the Miasma Cloud Mountain Range entered the cave one after another. They wandered around the complicated cave. Some followed Karina, some followed the other divine guards, and two scouted ahead for Han Shuo.
The magical beasts they encountered along the way would attack any living being that approached them with all their might. However, against the divine guards, the magical beasts didn't stand a chance. One after another, they were slaughtered in the spacious cave.
Suddenly, with the help of one of the demon generals scouted ahead, Han Shuo discovered that there was an enormous lava cave at the end of the cave. The rocks were like red-hot soldering iron. They carried an astonishingly high temperature and were dripping with magma-like red liquid. Faint smoke would rise from the rocks when they touched the ground. The temperature was astonishingly high.
Demon generals were cold-blooded by nature. Even they couldn't withstand the high temperature and didn't dare to venture too deep. However, through the observation of his demon general, Han Shuo discovered that there seemed to be some sort of peculiar aura ahead of the lava cave. It was as though someone had formed a chilling aura to expel the heat from the lava cave.
Among the party that followed Carmelita to the Miasma Cloud Mountain Range, none cultivated in the energy of water. Therefore, the person creating the chilling aura deep in the lava cave was definitely not one of them. Han Shuo immediately determined that there was a problem. He ordered his demon general to retreat a little. Han Shuo hastily said to Carmelita, "There should be a lava cave up ahead. The temperature inside is extremely high. However, there seems to be a cooling aura deep in the cave. It seems to come from a god cultivating in the energy of water. I'm certain that there's a problem up ahead! Should we summon the divine guards to investigate the situation? "
"Ah? It's true! " Carmelita cried out in surprise. Her ugly face revealed genuine joy. She hastily said, "Come, let's hurry up and check out the situation. There's no need to inform those guys. None of them are stronger than me. Even if they come, they won't be able to help us."
After hearing her words, Han Shuo thought about it and didn't try to persuade her any further. He immediately followed Carmelita and the two divine guards towards the lava cave.
With a precise destination in mind, they soon arrived at the demon general's location. As soon as Carmelita stood there, she let out a cold groan and said, "As expected, Brian, you were right. There are indeed people cultivating in the energy of water in there! Recently, the Ice Goddess and the Goddess of Nature, God Of Light, have been very close. It's normal for them to have people cultivating in the energy of water in their party. Right, Brian, you can retreat for now. I will go in and finish them all off! "
In Carmelita's eyes, Han Shuo's strength was meager. A lowgod couldn't even be considered cannon fodder in such a situation. Carmelita, this ugly girl, still cared about Han Shuo's life and death at such a time. This touched Han Shuo's heart. He nodded and said, "I understand!"
Upon finishing those words, Han Shuo did not advance but retreated instead. He assumed a posture of 'I'm going to retreat immediately'.
After pursuing for so long, Carmelita finally discovered traces of her enemies. In her anxiety, she immediately charged into the depths of the lava cave. As she possessed highgod strength, she naturally formed a field of destruction around her, isolating all the high-temperature red liquid that dripped down from the lava cave.
The two divine guards that came with Carmelita also entered the lava cave very conscientiously. They formed their domains of divinity and utilized the divine energy around them to resist the dangers of the lava cave. They quickly disappeared from Han Shuo's sight.
When all three of them had rushed into the lava cave, Han Shuo unhurriedly brought out the metal elite zombie and opened up an additional passageway that led straight into the lava cave. From another secluded corner, the metal elite zombie reached the depths of the lava cave. Han Shuo's demonic body was impervious to fire and water. Therefore, he wasn't affected by the high temperature of the lava cave. Through the small hole that metal elite zombie made, Han Shuo could observe the situation in the depths of the lava cave.
When Han Shuo took a closer look, he discovered that an intense battle was going on inside the lava cave. The two divine guards that had charged into the lava cave had been killed. Their corpses were not far from the small hole that Han Shuo had made. At this moment, the incomparably ugly Carmelita was being besieged by two experts. Although she was attacking in a frenzy, Han Shuo could see that she was gradually losing ground.
One of the two experts besieging Carmelita was a spirited old man holding a withered wooden staff in his hand. He cultivated in the energy of life. That withered wooden staff constantly released greenish gaseous threads that resembled flexible and tough tree branches that wrapped around Carmelita.
The other expert was a cold and elegant beauty. She had a tall and slender figure and an ice-cold face. Her entire being was like an icicle that would never melt in ten thousand years. Cold divine radiance constantly shot out from her fair and tender hands. Even the high temperature of the lava cave was completely covered by her.
Both of them possessed highgod strength while Carmelita was merely an early-stage lowgod. Even if the two experts possessed strength equal to hers, it was only a matter of time before she was defeated. Moreover, there were six midgods of extraordinary strength surrounding the two experts. They stood in a six-pointed star formation and appeared to be preparing to assist the two highgods with some sort of magical formation.
Carmelita looked as though she had gone insane. Her face was hideous and terrifying. While dealing with the thunderous attacks of the two experts, she charged at an enormous boulder as though she wanted to destroy it.
Following Carmelita's gaze, Han Shuo discovered that it was an azure boulder covered in dazzling speckles that resembled dazzling stars. The speckles seemed to be moving rhythmically on the surface of the azure boulder while emitting mesmerizing radiance. It was so beautiful that it was dazzling!
"Heaven's Gift!" Cried Han Shuo in a low voice. His face was filled with unconcealable shock. As he gazed at the dazzling azure boulder, he finally understood why that old man who cultivated in the edict of life would travel thousands of miles and risk his life to come to the Darkness Dominion.
Han Shuo also understood why Carmelita would disregard everything to destroy that beautiful boulder.
It was because the speckles on the surface of the dazzling boulder were moving like stars in a natural trajectory of the edict of life. Anyone who cultivated in the edict of life could deeply understand the essence of the edict of life by comprehending those trajectories!
