Tiny threads suddenly appeared in the fused Domain of Divinity. Han Shuo could clearly sense those tiny threads, but he couldn't see them with his naked eyes. After carefully sensing for a moment, Han Shuo discovered that those threads seemed to originate from the power of faith of Profound Continent and the Abyss realm in his divine soul.
The power of faith could not only increase the power of the Domain of Divinity, but also provide him with weak divine energy at all times. Although the divine energy transformed from the faith of mortals was so weak that he could only sense a tiny bit of it, it was an endless stream. After accumulating for many years, it would become a considerable amount of divine energy.
All this while, Han Shuo could sense the weak divine energy that the power of faith provided to him. However, he had never sensed the effect of the power of faith on the Domain of Divinity. At this moment, however, Han Shuo clearly sensed it.
The thread-like power of faith appeared in the fused Domain of Divinity in a densely packed manner. They revolved around the edict of destruction. With Han Shuo at the center, the thread-like threads constantly twisted and changed. They intertwined with each other and condensed into thicker and thicker threads.
However, Han Shuo could only sense it with his divine soul. He couldn't see the slightest change with his naked eyes.
Even more element of death madly converged towards the Domain of Divinity. Han Shuo didn't deliberately release any energy or techniques, but he suddenly discovered that the three boundaries of aging, fear, and weakness had taken shape on their own. Each boundary was filled with threads that were hard to see with the naked eye. Those threads seemed to be able to absorb the element of death that was constantly pouring into them and alter the composition of the three boundaries.
All of a sudden, the power of the three boundaries kept increasing. Han Shuo could clearly sense that the influence of the three boundaries was rapidly expanding. In no time at all, they overlapped and covered the entire Domain of Divinity.
With Han Shuo at the center, the threads that reflected the power of faith entangled the element of death that was crazily pouring into Han Shuo's body in the edict of destruction. They constantly altered the boundaries in the Domain of Divinity, causing the power of the three boundaries to grow stronger and stronger.
"Huh?" Rose cried out in alarm. She suddenly sensed the abnormality in the area next to Han Shuo and immediately asked, "What's wrong?"
Han Shuo came to a sudden realization. He immediately realized that this wasn't the right time to carefully sense his new domain. The two targets that were being devoured had already exhausted their life force. Han Shuo summoned a flying sword and stabbed Anker and the midgod of destruction. The two gradually turned into puddles of blood.
Rose's long silver hair had been dyed scarlet. She stood coldly among the corpses on the ground, her clear eyes staring at Han Shuo, full of bewilderment and bewilderment.
Not a single one of Anker's dozen or so divine guards survived. They were all killed by Rose. Through his demon general, Han Shuo could sense that even more experts of the House of Simon were rapidly converging on the battlefield. "Let's go!" Han Shuo softly shouted and took the lead in retreating.
…
As soon as the two left, Westin and Chandler arrived with hundreds of elite divine guards of the House of Westin.
The scene before them was too horrible to look at. The ground was covered with corpses. Half of Anker's body had melted and he had lost his life force.
Needless to say, the sight of Anker's body melting into puddles of blood was enough to prove who the murderer was. Westin had never been as furious as he was at that moment. The strength of the House of Simon was declining sharply. The death of a highgod was like adding snow to snow, especially when Anker was the younger brother of his wife.
"Patriarch, what should we do?" Chandler approached Westin and asked in a deep voice, "Those two come and go without a trace. They possess terrifying strength. What should we do to force them out and kill them?"
Unlike Anker, Chandler had personally witnessed the terrifying destructive power Han Shuo and Rose displayed at the gates of Hushveil City. As a member of the House of Simon, it was only natural for Chandler to hate Han Shuo and Rose to the bone. However, he was also somewhat fearful of the duo. He knew that even Westin would not be a match for that callous young man in a one-on-one fight. Therefore, he always had his divine guards stick close to him in case something went wrong.
It was precisely because of his cautiousness that Han Shuo did not come after him. He managed to escape unscathed but Anker was killed. Anker's death had a great impact on Chandler. He began to worry that he would be the next target.
"Release the signal. Tell them that those two are in the vicinity!" Westin suddenly commanded after keeping silent for a moment. After taking a short pause, Westin continued, "Our men are to stick close to each other. Do not leave without a good reason. Our previous understanding of the situation is completely wrong. I don't think that guy was seriously injured by the City Lord at all. Otherwise, he wouldn't have exposed himself and attacked us."
"Patriarch, are you saying that the City Lord is lying?" Chandler was dumbfounded. He looked left and right before asking in a low voice.
Westin shook his head, let out a soft sigh, and said, "The City Lord would not make such a joke at a time like this. Besides, based on my understanding of him, I know that he disdains lying." Westin took a deep look at Chandler and said, "The City Lord's words cannot be wrong. Not to mention that not only did that guy not leave, he even treated us as his prey. This can only mean one thing – that he is stronger than the City Lord!"
Chandler's face jolted when he heard those words. After thinking about it for a moment, Chandler's face turned even more unsightly. He thought of the Overgod who had transcended highgod rank but did not possess the Quintessence. Chandler became even more terrified when he thought of that. He asked in a slightly panicked manner, "What should we do then?"
"Don't even think about killing them. Our family clan has exhausted too much of our strength. We will be fine as long as we can bring our men out of the mountain range." Westin wore a helpless and humiliated face. However, he continued, "If other family clans want to touch him, let them. It is time for them to suffer some losses. Otherwise, the House of Simon's position in Hushveil City will be challenged!"
As the patriarch of the House of Simon, Westin had to make difficult decisions for the benefit of the family clan. His many years of battle experience had given him keen observation skills. Just like how he had previously determined that Han Shuo would return to the city gate, his decision this time was correct.
…
Han Shuo, whose strength had been overestimated due to his Invincible Omen Body, was having a headache. Facing Rose's questioning gaze, Han Shuo didn't know how to explain.
Previously, as the seventeen flying swords blocked Rose's view of Han Shuo devouring Anker, she couldn't see what was going on. But later on, when Han Shuo devoured another midgod of destruction, Rose immediately revealed a shocked expression when she saw what Han Shuo was doing.
Godhunters were hated by everyone on Elysium. Obviously, Rose knew about the existence of godhunters. She watched as Han Shuo devoured that midgod of destruction. She was extremely shocked. She did not expect that Han Shuo was a notorious godhunter.
After the two successfully escaped from that area, Rose continued to look at him suspiciously, which made Han Shuo feel very uncomfortable. They came to an ancient tree with dense foliage. Han Shuo braced himself and asked, "Why are you looking at me like that?"
"Do you know?" Rose looked deeply at Han Shuo and asked, "Are you a godhunter?"
"No, I'm not!" Han Shuo firmly denied. Then, he solemnly explained to Rose, "Godhunters are a group of people who cannot control their desire to devour. Their minds are occupied by greed. They are a special group of people who wholeheartedly seek to devour the divine energy of others to increase their own strength. This group of people have their own alliances and organizations. Their desire to devour has replaced the rationality of an ordinary person. As long as they are alive, their desire to devour will continue to exist, causing them to constantly devour! "
"I don't need you to explain that to me. I have been on Elysium for a much longer time than you. I know about godhunters, "after taking a short pause, Rose calmly continued," Could it be that you are different from them? "
"Of course I am!" Han Shuo put on a faint smile and said, "I can overcome the desire to devour and will not be affected by greed. As long as I don't want to, even if you trap someone in front of me, I will not devour them. They are a group of people who are dominated and influenced by greed. I, on the other hand, am different. I can control my desire and do such things rationally. "
"I don't believe you. I have never heard of anyone who can overcome that desire. Once it starts, there is no stopping it!" Rose's slender brows were tightly bunched. She softly sighed and asked, "Why are you such a person?"
Han Shuo put on a faint smile and said, "You should know very well whether I am such a person or not. If I were a godhunter, everything I do would be for the sake of devouring others. Since we have known each other for so long, have you realized that I do things for the sake of devouring others? "
Rose stared blankly for a moment after hearing Han Shuo's words. She carefully thought for a moment and realized that Han Shuo's words made a lot of sense. She had known Han Shuo for quite some time and she knew that godhunters were driven by the desire in their hearts. If they did not devour others for a period of time, they would feel very uncomfortable and would act involuntarily for their goals.
Rose and Han Shuo had been together for quite some time. Because of their master-slave relationship, Rose had never left Han Shuo's side. During that period of time, she really did not notice any abnormal behavior from Han Shuo. Not only was Han Shuo behaving normally, but he was also clearly an extraordinary individual who had an extremely strong will and could control himself to the greatest extent.
Such a person was obviously different from a godhunter. Rose couldn't be sure. After a long while, she doubtfully asked, "No one can overcome that desire. You say you can?"
"I believe that there are definitely people who can overcome that desire. It's just that most people don't know about it." Han Shuo let out a soft laugh and said, "You will slowly come to understand the truth. We will be spending a lot of time together in the future!"
"I'll believe you for now!" Rose mumbled. Suddenly, she recalled something and cried out in surprise again, "Right, I remember that when you devoured that midgod of destruction, he was clearly there but you seemed to be fighting not far away from him. Could it be that you used that lifeform to devour him? If that's the case, you won't be affected! "
Han Shuo knew that he and Rose would be spending a lot of time together in the future and that sooner or later, she would learn about the secret of his avatars. After hesitating for a moment, Han Shuo replied, "More or less." Han Shuo did not explain too much and decided to wait for Rose to find out about it.
Rose did not pursue the matter. She was very curious about Han Shuo. But when she saw that Han Shuo had no intention of talking about it, Rose decided not to pry too much.
After leaving the House of Simon, Han Shuo used his demon generals to observe for a while. He discovered that all the divine guards of the House of Simon had gathered together. Han Shuo knew that with Westin on his guard, it would not be easy for him to find another opportunity to strike.
The family clans of Hushveil City who had received Westin's message were converging on the area. Han Shuo and Rose hastily retreated from the area.
By the time City Lord Hofs and the others arrived, Han Shuo and Rose had long vanished from the area. They had once again conducted a carpet search around the area. But as the boundaries were clearly visible, they did not discover anything.
Very soon, these people dispersed again and continued to search this mountain range in groups of clans. The few Chiefs of Hushveil City also dispersed. Some joined their family clans, and some acted alone. They expanded the search area.
For the next half a month, Han Shuo would kill whenever he had the chance. Before the main force could approach, he would use the omnipresent patrolling ability of his demon generals to retreat. Nearly a hundred divine guards and two highgods from the House of Hofs and House of Salohauser were killed in the span of half a month.
No matter how cautious Hofs and the others were, the number of casualties would only increase. Once the distance between the divine guards and the divine guards reached a certain distance, a massacre was inevitable. After that, no matter how hard they searched, they could not find even a shadow of Han Shuo and Rose. In the vast mountain range, Han Shuo and Rose were like two invisible men. They would constantly kill the divine guards around them. No matter how hard they tried, they could not find any trace of them.
Fear shrouded all the ordinary divine guards. Even the highgods of the few family clans were frightened out of their wits. They no longer dared to spread out and gathered together. They were so close to each other that they could arrive at any moment if they called for reinforcements. None of them dared to underestimate the two murderers who seemed to be invisible.
Hofs felt that the past half a month had been the most frustrating period of his life. Almost all the expert family clans in Hushveil City had mobilized their forces but not only did they fail to find the two murderers, they were constantly being killed. Hofs grew more and more irascible. Sometimes, he would lose control of his temper and severely punish his divine guards for the slightest mistake.
Those divine guards of Hofs had served Hofs for many years and they knew that Hofs had gone mad. No one dared to provoke him or even get close to him. Even some of the elders of the House of Hofley were apprehensive. They feared that Hofley would be so mad that he would attack them without a care for anything else.
"What's the point of hiding? Come out and fight me one on one if you have the guts! Goddamnit, I guarantee that I will not use a single divine guard around me! "roared the furious Hofs from the bushes. His voice spread far and wide.
Hofs was infuriated. He had lost his composure and it was not something a City Lord should do. Hofs' composure and shrewdness had been worn away in half a month's time. With all other methods having failed, Hofs had somewhat lost himself.
While yelling, Hofs flew away by himself. Whenever a divine guard approached him, Hofs would glare at the divine guard and coldly shout, "Get back!"
He was prepared to fight Han Shuo one on one!
The divine guards were already afraid of Hofs in his current state. Therefore, when they heard that Hofs was asking them to leave, they were more than happy to do so. They obediently kept a distance from Hofs and allowed him to fly away by himself. The experts of the Hofley Family originally wanted to go after Hofs. But after thinking about Hofs' strength and how much more terrifying Hofs would be in his berserk state, they decided not to worry about him.
Having Hofs in an extremely irascible state around them was a form of torture. The Hofley Family divine guards secretly rejoiced when they saw Hofs taking the initiative to leave. They thought to themselves, You can do whatever you want. After all, those two probably won't provoke you. Since there's nothing we can do about it, we might as well stay out of it.
"Come out! Come out!" roared Hofs as he flew further and further away from the group.
Hofs' roars were so loud and clear that Han Shuo and Rose who were hundreds of miles away could hear him loud and clear. Rose was amused by Hofs' craziness. She smiled sweetly and said to Han Shuo in a low voice, "Look, that guy is going crazy because of you!"
In the past half a month, Han Shuo had proven to Rose that he could completely control the desires in his heart. In front of Rose, as long as Rose said no, Han Shuo would smile and stop devouring those divine guards. After several times, Rose finally believed Han Shuo's words.
When Han Shuo proved to her that he was different from a godhunter, Rose was astonished. Naturally, Rose did not stop Han Shuo from devouring divine guards. She felt that although Han Shuo's behavior was similar to that of a godhunter, he was beyond the realm of a godhunter.
"He has gone mad!" Han Shuo nodded and agreed with Rose's statement. Han Shuo's two avatars had devoured a sufficient amount of divine energy over the past half a month. They were currently in the process of digesting the divine energy. After this digestion period, whether or not they could advance further would depend on their understanding of the energy.
"I think we should leave now. Those divine guards are all gathered together. It won't be easy to attack them," suggested Rose.
Han Shuo shook his head smilingly and replied, "There's no need to rush." While Rose was puzzled, Han Shuo continued, "Those divine guards are indeed gathered together. But didn't someone just come out alone?"
Rose stared blankly for a moment before she cried out in surprise, "You are planning to attack the City Lord of Hushveil City? He has late-stage highgod strength. He must have gone mad! Don't tell me you want to join him? "
Han Shuo nodded and smilingly replied, "Since he has shown enough sincerity, how can I disappoint him?"
