In the northwest of the Fringe, Polo, one of the godhunter leaders, had long received two million black crystal coins from Little Skull Han Hao. Polo did not express any particular displeasure about Han Hao receiving McKinley's divine body as soon as he stepped out of the city. After all, he had already received the black crystal coins.
One day, while Polo was torturing a beautiful woman in Tanai's prison, he received news from one of his subordinates in Ethereal City.
"My Lord, Baum is dead. According to the rumor from Ethereal City, the Overgod of Space razed the entire City Lord's Mansion to the ground in a fit of rage!" Kodiak, who was responsible for bringing McKinley's divine body out of the City Lord's Mansion bowed and reported to Polo.
Polo was startled and softly cried out, "What?"
"The Overgod of Space razed Baum and the City Lord's Mansion to the ground!" Kodiak repeated the news.
Polo turned pale with fright and said, "I had guessed that Baum would die, but I did not expect that the killer would be the Overgod of Space. This is inconceivable! What's the situation in Ethereal City now? " Polo had thought that McKinley would join hands with Little Skull Han Hao to kill Baum. He did not expect that things would turn out this way.
"McKinley has returned to Ethereal City with the Overgod's Divine Talisman. He has now become the City Lord of Ethereal City. My Lord, I don't think that McKinley is a person who is willing to do business with us. Him becoming the City Lord of Ethereal City doesn't seem to bring us much benefit, "said Kodiak with his brows bunched.
Polo pushed the beautiful woman away and said in a deep voice, "Don't worry about McKinley. What's more important is Han Hao. Since he saved McKinley and Han Hao is the leader of our Godhunter Alliance, I believe that McKinley won't be so heartless. Hmm, do you have any news about Han Hao? I'm more interested in him. "
"Last time, he sent someone to deliver a message asking us to pay attention to the robbery of Goldstone Enterprise. We have asked around but haven't found anything yet," said Kodiak.
"Do your best to investigate. I think that Han Hao and the owner of the Goldenstone store must have an extraordinary relationship. The Goldenstone shop has branches in every Divine Realm. It is said that they have ores that other shops can never find. If we can establish a relationship with the Goldenstone shop, it will be greatly beneficial to us in the future! Tell them to keep an eye on this matter and report to me as soon as they have any news! "Polo ordered.
"Yes, My Lord!" Kodiak bowed and retreated. He immediately left with his godhunters.
…
Half a month later, Han Shuo and his party finally stepped out of the Space Dominion and entered the Fringe.
As soon as Han Shuo entered the Land of Chaos, he discovered that it was a chaotic place. Along the way, he saw corpses drenched in blood everywhere. Fights to the death were common. Some godhunters were devouring cultivators of the same energy as them. There were no rules to speak of.
And this was just the outermost region of the Fringe!
As Han Shuo and his party approached the Fringe, they saw more and more fights. There was no order in the Land of Chaos. There were no divine guards to keep an eye on things. Most people would watch and watch with interest. If there was an opportunity, they might even join the fray.
Without sufficient strength, one would run into enemies at every step in the Land of Chaos. If one had a valuable divine weapon, or a beautiful woman by his side, or if one was of the same energy as a godhunter but was weaker than the godhunter, it would become a motive for others to kill one.
Along the way, Han Shuo and his party witnessed the true chaos of the Land of Chaos. They gradually got used to the tragic sight of corpses strewn all over the place.
Among Han Shuo and his party, the highgod aura emanating from Rose was the most obvious. Little Skull Han Hao wore a cold and indifferent expression. The Five Elite Zombies, having roamed the Dominions for many years, did not appear to be weaklings that could be easily bullied. No one dared to provoke them.
"Don't let your guard down. This is just the outermost region of the Land of Chaos!" Rose was somewhat familiar with the Land of Chaos. She constantly explained, "The deeper we go into the Fringe, the stronger the gods we will run into. You have seen for yourself that those fighting in the outermost region are only midgods. Even those godhunters with midgod strength dare not venture into the deeper regions. Otherwise, they will become the targets of others! "
"Given our strength, I don't think there are many who would dare to provoke us, right?" Han Huo was a person who wished to see the world plunged into chaos. Whenever he saw people fighting along the way, he would shout and yell. He wished that he could rush into the fray and kill to his heart's content.
"Not for the time being. But it will be hard to say once we enter the Land of Chaos," Rose was not as relaxed as Han Shuo and his party. She seemed to be very apprehensive about the Fringe.
Three days later, Han Shuo and his party entered the Land of Chaos. It was common to see highgods fighting in the Land of Chaos. Those highgods wore cold, fierce, and vigilant gazes. It was as though they would immediately attack and kill the intruder the moment they looked at the intruder.
"Han Jin, were you robbed in this region last time?" Han Shuo asked Metal Elite Zombie Han Jin after arriving at a region surrounded by mountains and rivers.
When Metal Elite Zombie first came to the Land of Chaos, he was accompanied by a dozen or so divine guards. Every one of them possessed late-stage midgod strength. Besides, Metal Elite Zombie had purposely chosen this region with more mountains and rivers because he thought that no powerful experts would come to the Land of Chaos. Little did he expect that he would still be blocked by a group of strangers.
"Yes, Father. Last time, I was ambushed in the middle of these mountains. If it weren't for the mountains nearby, I'm afraid that I wouldn't have been able to escape!" Han Jin seemed to have recalled the tragic deaths of his subordinates. He put on a somewhat sorrowful and indignant expression. He pointed at a few regions and explained to Han Shuo, "Here, there, I saw my subordinates killed with my own eyes. Not a single one of them survived."
Han Shuo had seen the Land of Chaos for a long time. He knew that this was a place where the strong were revered and the weak were slaughtered. Those who had stayed in the Land of Chaos for a long time were somewhat perverted. Sometimes, they would kill using all sorts of strange and bizarre methods. They would treat killing as an entertainment and torture their victims to the point where they wished they were dead.
When Han Shuo recalled that Metal Elite Zombie was nearly killed in a nearby region, he became extremely angry. He released a few demon generals. Han Shuo said, "Let's not rush deeper into the Land of Chaos. Let's gather some information around here and see if we can get anything out of them."
Naturally, Rose and the others did not have any objections. They nodded to indicate that they understood and stayed there for the time being.
Han Shuo stood motionlessly on top of a boulder. The demon generals he released transformed into all kinds of lone roamers. Whenever they discovered a group of people in the vicinity, those demon generals would provoke them and lead them towards the region where Han Shuo and the others were.
After a while, for the first time, the party of seven were enraged by the demon generals. They chased after Han Shuo with cold faces.
When the demon generals arrived before Han Shuo, they suddenly vanished. Then, Han Shuo put on a faint smile and said, "Gentlemen, I would like to ask you about a few people."
"Where is that person?" asked one of the highgods coldly, "Are you with him?"
Seeing that Han Shuo and the others didn't seem to be friendly people, the highgod hesitated for a moment before he asked, "What? What are you trying to do? "
Rose knew the rules of the Fringe very well. Without saying a word, she rushed forward and killed the highgod's guards. The highgod had just entered the mid-stage of the Fringe. As soon as he saw Rose's attack, he immediately realized how powerful Rose was. He couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart.
However, the Fringe had no shortage of adventurers. Although the highgod was somewhat apprehensive of Rose's strength, he still flew into a rage and shouted, "Woman, you are dead!"
Whoosh! The bone spear in Little Skull's hand shot out. Terrifying evil energy filled the entire space as it came crashing down like a meteor.
The highgod was startled and immediately retreated. After steadying himself, his face turned pale with fright. He looked at Rose and Little Skull Han Hao for a moment before he finally calmed down and asked in a low voice, "Who are you looking for?" He was confident that he could deal with Rose alone. But with Little Skull Han Hao in the picture, he knew that if he dared to say another word, only death would await him.
"Some time ago, a group of people robbed a batch of ores here. Do you know who they are?" Han Shuo asked Han Jin to describe the faces of those people.
Han Jin stared blankly for a moment. He bunched his brows and thought for a moment before he shook his head and replied, "I don't know. I have not heard anything about them."
"Murder!" replied Han Shuo with the same smile on his face.
Without saying a word, Little Skull Han Hao and Rose started attacking Han Shuo ferociously. The Five Elite Zombies did not remain idle either. Although they did not form the Penta-elemental Undead Formation, they also attacked Han Shuo.
In Han Shuo's opinion, since Rose had killed his subordinates, it was better to get rid of them as soon as possible in order to avoid leaving any seeds of future trouble. More importantly, there were no rules in the Fringe and one would not have to bear any consequences for killing someone. On top of that, Han Shuo was a highgod and his divine soul was what the Cauldron of Myriad Demon needed the most.
After roaming around the Fringe for a few days, Han Shuo discovered that no one in the Fringe was worthy of sympathy. They were all villains from various Dominions who had committed innumerable atrocities. Han Shuo would not feel the slightest bit guilty even if he were to kill all of them.
Rose alone was more than enough to finish him off. With the addition of Little Skull, Han Hao, and the Five Elite Zombies, Han Shuo wouldn't even have a chance to escape. In just a few moments, Han Shuo was nailed to the ground by Little Skull's seven bone spurs.
The Cauldron of Myriad Demon flew out and collected the divine soul of Han Shuo and his subordinates. The divine soul of this person would be enough to make up for the demon general that Han Shuo lost in the battle at the City Lord's Mansion in Ethereal City.
Han Shuo was in no hurry to leave. He repeated his old trick of sending demon generals to provoke the Cauldron of Myriad Demon. Whenever someone approached him, he would kill them and collect their divine soul into the Cauldron of Myriad Demon. But unfortunately, after asking many people, Han Shuo did not get any information.
Just as Han Shuo was about to give up and head deeper into the Fringe, Kodiak, one of Polo's subordinates, appeared. They seemed to have heard the shrill screeches of Little Skull's bone spurs and came to Han Shuo.
