Han Shuo went to Venomfang Mountain, but he didn't sense Han Hao at all. He searched the surrounding area, but couldn't find any trace of Han Hao. From the information provided by Rose, if anything were to happen to Han Hao, the culprit would definitely be Salas of the Five Sovereigns!
Therefore, Han Shuo went to the Empyrean Peak.
Salas' subordinates were stationed on the Empyrean Peak. The Empyrean Peak was like a broadsword piercing through the clouds. It was covered with all kinds of defensive boundaries. Even Han Shuo couldn't get to the top of the Empyrean Peak without alerting anyone.
Han Shuo raised his head and gazed at the peak of the mountain. He unfolded his consciousness and slowly extended it outwards. He sensed one divine soul after another …
After a long while, Han Shuo softly exclaimed. Through the probing of his consciousness, he sensed more than a thousand divine souls on the Empyrean Peak. Among them, there were tens of them with highgod strength and seventeen of them were late-stage highgods!
Even if Salas wasn't on the Empyrean Peak, the forces on the Empyrean Peak were not something an average person could handle. After carefully sensing for a while at the foot of the mountain, Han Shuo did not act rashly. He continued to carefully search for Salas' location.
After a while, Han Shuo bunched his brows. He found it rather strange that he couldn't sense Salas' presence on the Empyrean Peak at all. For experts like Salas who had surpassed highgod strength, as long as they were on the Empyrean Peak, Han Shuo could more or less sense their presence.
As a matter of fact, Han Shuo had used the Great Soul Searching Art. With the Great Soul Searching Art, even Sovereign Ossora who was adept at concealing himself would not be able to escape Han Shuo's Fiery Eyes of Gold. But now, Han Shuo couldn't sense Salas' aura at all.
Could it be that Salas wasn't on the Empyrean Peak? After thinking about it, Han Shuo was puzzled and wondered if he should go to the Deity of Heaven Peak to take a look.
If he were to break into the Empyrean Peak today, it would mean that he and Salas would have to shed all pretense of cordiality. Ever since Han Shuo entered the Fringe, although he had killed quite a number of Sovereigns, he had never really gone against Salas. Because Han Shuo was not confident that he could defeat the Five Sovereigns, he chose to avoid making an enemy out of them.
Now, because of Han Hao, their hostile relationship had been confirmed. If Han Shuo were to wreak havoc in the Empyrean Peak today, Han Shuo and Salas would immediately start a huge battle. Han Shuo had no choice but to be cautious.
After hesitating for a long time, Han Shuo finally made up his mind and charged towards the Deity Sky Peak!
"Who is it?" Someone shouted as soon as he entered the Empyrean Peak. Then, a small squad of Empyrean Peak guards vigilantly walked out from a dark corner. All the weapons in their hands were pointed at Han Shuo.
"I want to see Salas. Send a message for me," Han Shuo said indifferently after glancing at the pair of guards.
"How dare you address His Lordship by his name! You are courting death!" The guards of the Empyrean Peak were used to being domineering. When they heard Han Shuo address Salas by his name without using any honorifics, they immediately ordered coldly, "Seize him!"
The squad of ten men moved together and surrounded Han Shuo. Unfortunately, they were only midgod experts as they were stationed at the outermost perimeter of the Empyrean Peak. Confronting Han Shuo with such strength was akin to throwing an egg against a rock.
When Han Shuo saw how arrogant and condescending those puny guards of the Empyrean Peak were, he began to understand why Little Skull Han Hao would kill that subordinate of Salas. Since Han Shuo knew that there was no turning back, he showed no mercy. Before the ten guards could approach him, they were enveloped by an enormous bone flower. The Cauldron of Myriad Demon left Han Shuo's body and shook in the air. The divine souls of the ten guards flew into the Cauldron as light as a feather.
As the number of demon generals in the Cauldron of Myriad Demon increased, Cauldron Spirit's power grew stronger and stronger. Now, there was no need for Han Shuo to do anything. Ordinary midgods who were still alive would have their divine souls sucked out of their divine bodies by the light emitted by the Cauldron of Myriad Demon.
Ten wisps of greyish smoke drifted into the Cauldron of Myriad Demon. The little Cauldron of Myriad Demon circled around but did not return to Han Shuo's body. Instead, it hovered beside Han Shuo and flew towards the Empyrean Peak together with him.
Three energy towers simultaneously overflowed with blue radiance, forming a faint blue barrier that blocked Han Shuo's path. Before Han Shuo could destroy the barrier, shadowy figures whizzed out from the Cauldron of Myriad Demon, surged up, and tore the blue barrier apart.
The Cauldron of Myriad Demon, which was originally only the size of a fist, suddenly grew to the size of a man. It struck a certain spot in between the three energy towers. With a loud boom, the three energy towers shattered in an instant, turning into stone fragments that flew in all directions.
"Who dares to come to the Empyrean Peak and court death?!" An angry shout came from halfway up the Empyrean Peak. One after another, agile figures descended from the peak.
The man and the Cauldron of Myriad Demon ignored the demons that were descending from above and continued to charge towards the peak.
With the Cauldron of Myriad Demon leading the way, the Cauldron of Myriad Demon crumbled all the barriers and energy towers they encountered. There was no need for Han Shuo to worry at all. Along the way, the energy towers exploded and the barriers and barriers were torn apart by demon generals, allowing Han Shuo to proceed unimpeded.
It was only now that Han Shuo realized that the Cauldron of Myriad Demon's strength had indeed skyrocketed after devouring the divine souls of hundreds and thousands of gods. The Cauldron of Myriad Demon was originally the supreme treasure of demonic sects. It knew all kinds of demonic formations like the back of its hand. The various barriers and barriers in this world were connected to some demonic formations. With the power of demon generals, it had no trouble destroying the barriers and barriers.
At first, Han Shuo was worried that the ubiquitous barriers and barriers on the Empyrean Peak would make it difficult for him to move forward. However, the Cauldron of Myriad Demon's performance completely dispelled his worries. As the barriers and energy towers were destroyed one after another, Han Shuo's mind gradually grew frantic.
It was only a matter of time before he confronted the Five Sovereigns. Now that Han Hao had killed someone, given Salas's vengeful nature, the grudge was set in stone. At this point, the most crucial part of the battle was to destroy as much of the enemy's forces as possible. Once he made a move, he would spare no effort!
With the Cauldron of Myriad Demon leading the way, the barriers and energy towers blocking their way were destroyed one after another. The man and the cauldron of Myriad Demon soon approached the mountainside.
It was at this moment that Salas's subordinates finally arrived. Many of them were highgods. Most of them were early-stage and mid-stage highgods. They were all fuming with rage and were ready to tear Han Shuo to shreds.
The Five Sovereigns of the Fringe were constantly fighting each other. However, never before had they charged into one another's territory. The Five Sovereigns would only let their subordinates fight each other or fight one on one in secret. It was very rare for the Five Sovereigns to attack someone else's subordinates.
Therefore, although the Five Sovereigns were constantly fighting each other, the Empyrean Peak had never been affected. Ordinary people would try their best to avoid a place like the Deity of Heaven Peak. They would never come here to seek their own death.
Whose territory was the Empyrean Peak? Salas! Other than the Five Sovereigns, who would dare trespass on the Empyrean Peak?!
When Salas's subordinates discovered the huge commotion coming from the foot of the mountain, when they saw the energy towers being destroyed and the barriers of the Empyrean Peak being destroyed, they felt as though they had been slapped in the face in front of their faces. They couldn't help but be enraged.
When they flew down from the mountain and discovered that there was only one person, they were a little shaken. They thought that the intruder was one of the Four Sovereigns. However, they soon discovered that this audacious intruder was not one of the Four Sovereigns. With that, their courage was boosted and they began to forget themselves.
"Good, good, good!" Han Shuo grinned hideously. With one thought, seventeen flying swords whizzed out. Each and every one of these deadly flying swords was incomparably sharp and carried acid and cold toxins. They were the best weapons for killing and reaping lives.
Those who charged at Han Shuo first were penetrated by the seventeen flying swords in an instant. Their divine bodies rapidly melted into a puddle of blood.
Han Shuo extended his ten fingers and the Demonic Blades burst out. He charged into the crowd while laughing heartily. Wherever the Demonic Blades pointed, severed limbs and flesh would be torn apart. None of the Demonic Blades could withstand a single blow!
Han Shuo had now reached the pinnacle of the Omen Realm. On top of Cauldron Spirit's strength, no highgod could stop him. Han Shuo suddenly realized that the only way for him to make a breakthrough with his current strength was to find an opponent of equal or even stronger than him and fight him to the death!
And Salas was exactly the opponent that Han Shuo needed the most right now!
After making up his mind, Han Shuo no longer had the slightest trace of fear in his heart. Instead, he eagerly hoped that Salas would show up and have a good fight with him. Even if he couldn't defeat Salas, as long as he could leave the Empyrean Peak alive, he would have a great chance of making a breakthrough. Once he truly stepped into a new realm, Han Shuo believed that he would be the one to make the rules of the Fringe!
This was a risky challenge!
"Where's Salas? Where's Salas? Show yourself! " Han Shuo gradually went berserk. He roared shrilly on the Empyrean Peak. He showed no mercy in his attacks. His Demonic Blades tore apart one divine body after another!
With the super strong defensive power of Han Shuo's Invincible Omen Body, the attacks that came from all directions were completely ineffective. The sharp divine weapons that stabbed into Han Shuo's body felt as though they were stabbing into the hardest metal and stone. They couldn't cause the slightest bit of damage to Han Shuo.
Han Shuo laughed heartily as he charged straight towards the summit of the Empyrean Peak. He would kill anyone who stood in his way.
The Cauldron of Myriad Demon turned into a hazy shadow as it absorbed one divine soul after another. In just a short while, dozens of divine souls had disappeared into the Cauldron of Myriad Demon. Han Shuo and the Cauldron of Myriad Demon cooperated with tacit understanding and complemented each other. With an unstoppable momentum, they charged straight for the summit.
Along the way, more and more Ferocious Gods came out to intercept Han Shuo. However, none of them could stop Han Shuo's advance. They all died tragically at Han Shuo's hands. Even more energy towers and boundaries were destroyed by the Cauldron of Myriad Demon. Although the Cauldron of Myriad Demon appeared to be powerless, it helped Han Shuo solve his greatest problem.
"Master, be careful. The new barrier is very powerful!" Cauldron Spirit suddenly transmitted to Han Shuo.
Han Shuo focused his gaze and discovered that the final pass to the summit was filled with terrifying bolts of lightning. The lightning crackled as it leaped about, as if it had a life of its own, forming an enormous ring that surrounded the summit.
Without a doubt, this was the final barrier deployed by Salas!
