Han Shuo knew that Salas would search for him at all costs. As the Pandemonium was a special place, there was no way it could escape Salas' eyes and ears. It was only a matter of time before Salas found the Pandemonium.
Han Shuo knew very well how powerful Salas and the Pandemonium were. He knew that the Pandemonium might be able to stop Salas for a while, but there was no way they could kill Salas. If that happened, the lives of the Five Elite Zombies, Rose, and the others in the Pandemonium would be in grave danger.
Therefore, Han Shuo had to rush to the Pandemonium and stop Salas from attacking the Pandemonium.
However, Han Shuo had somewhat underestimated the intelligence of his five sons. He also did not expect that Tanai would have Ossora, who was always trying to curry favor with him.
While Han Shuo was rushing towards the Pandemonium, the Pandemonium was still in a hellish state. Salas' subordinates were killed one after another inside the demonic formations. Their corpses were strewn all over the place.
There was a circular platform at the center of the Pandemonium with the pattern of the Cauldron of Myriad Demon. The lifelike Cauldron of Myriad Demon glowed with a mystical luster. The souls of those killed by Salas and Tanai transformed into wisps of light smoke that drifted into the Cauldron of Myriad Demon.
Cauldron Spirit had planned to use the terrifying destructive power of the Pandemonium to collect the souls of those who entered the Pandemonium. Even if Han Shuo wasn't in the Pandemonium, he could still use the formation at the center of the platform to collect the souls of those who died. That way, he would be able to collect the souls of those who died when he returned to the Pandemonium.
Salas of Tanai was still wearing a grave expression as he dealt with the corrosion of the elements in the Pandemonium. He was constantly depleting the divine energy in his body.
As the Yuan Qi of the various formations in the Pandemonium was continuously gathering around Salas, the power of some of the smaller formations around the Pandemonium began to weaken. The pressure on Salas' subordinates that were still alive was greatly reduced and they managed to escape.
* * * Underground, in the underground tunnel that Earth Elite Zombie had dug several hundred meters deep into the ground, Gerald and his subordinates had long since left. Only Han Mu, Han Huo, Rose, Romon, and the others remained underground.
"It's about time. Shouldn't we leave too?" asked Romont.
Han Mu, Han Huo, and Rose were somewhat reluctant to leave. They had grown attached to the Pandemonium. This was especially true for Han Mu, Han Huo, and the others who had personally helped to set up the grand defensive formation. They considered the Pandemonium to be their home. The thought of their home being destroyed by Salas made their hearts ache.
"Maybe Ossora will really stop Salas. Don't worry too much, we should be fine," comforted Zovic. That was all he could say at the moment. "That's right.
"Forget it. Let's go!" Even Han Tu started to get sentimental. "At worst, we'll just spend another two years rebuilding the Pandemonium. What's the big deal?"
"Let's go. I hope Ossora can help us stay here," said Han Jin as he gestured to Rose, Zovic, and the others to enter the Pandemonium.
There was nothing more to say at this point. The party no longer hesitated and entered the underground tunnel.
Ten minutes later, Salas heaved a long sigh of relief. He could no longer feel the strange energy invading his body. He felt lucky to have survived a disaster.
Salas didn't know that the elemental energies in the Pandemonium could only last for a short period of time. He had just used up a lot of his divine energy. At the rate he was going, it wouldn't take more than five days before he ran out of divine energy. When that happened, only death awaited him.
For some time, Salas was truly afraid of the mysterious Pandemonium. He grew more and more apprehensive of it.
Salas straightened his back and looked around. He noticed that most of the demonic formations in Tanai's Pandemonium had stopped functioning. However, the ground was littered with corpses. They were all his subordinates.
He had brought nearly a thousand of his subordinates with him when he came to the Pandemonium. But now, only about three hundred of them were still alive. Of the remaining three hundred people, many of them were injured. Most of them were panting heavily, looking exhausted and powerless.
Salas had run amok in the Fringe for many years but he had never been in such a sorry state. He had not even seen Han Shuo's shadow yet he had lost more than half of his subordinates. It was not hard to imagine how frustrated he was.
A few months ago, the Empyrean Peak had lost many of his subordinates. Today, they had suffered yet another heavy loss. From now on, Salas would have to face the dilemma of having no subordinates at his disposal. To an overlord like him, there was nothing more miserable than this.
"Search the area. Kill every single one of Tanai's subordinates. Don't leave a single one alive!" ordered Salas with a dark face. He regarded Han Shuo as his greatest enemy. He was determined to kill Han Shuo.
Those who were lucky enough to survive dragged their weary bodies and wandered around the Pandemonium in fear, trying to find an enemy that Salas could vent his anger on.
A strange valley had killed more than half of their people in just half a day. Until now, not a single person had been seen. This scene deeply shocked them and made them feel fear from the bottom of their hearts.
The Five Elite Zombies, Rose, and the others had long since retreated. No matter how hard they tried, they could not find any trace of them. The anxious Salas' subordinates hung their heads dejectedly after searching for half an hour without finding anything.
"My Lord, there's no one!"
"It's all empty. There's nothing here!"
"My Lord, what do we do? There's no one here! "
"…"
Salas was about to explode from anger. He had gone through so many hardships to get here. He had paid such a heavy price and sacrificed so many of his men, but in the end, he had found nothing. If word of this got out, Salas's reputation would suffer a fatal blow. He would never be able to raise his head in the Fringe again.
"It's all ruined! If you can't find him, then destroy this place! "Now that things had come to this, Salas did not know how to face this sullen matter.
By now, Salas's subordinates were looking at him with flickering eyes. They began to feel that the Sovereign they had always trusted wasn't as powerful and terrifying as they had imagined. Most importantly, he couldn't provide them with any useful help. He even gave the wrong orders, causing their comrades to die one after another.
"Destroy everything!" roared Salas fiercely. He seemed to have sensed what his subordinates were thinking.
After all, Salas's influence was still there. His subordinates were startled and hastily tried to destroy the Pandemonium.
"Salas, long time no see!" It was at this moment that Ossora slowly walked out from the darkness with a warm smile on his face.
Salas's face jolted and he coldly said, "Ossora, what are you doing here?"
"I've been asked to discuss something with you," said Ossora smilingly. "The owner of this place spent a great deal of effort to build this place. I hope you can preserve it and not destroy it."
Salas stared blankly for a moment before he shouted angrily, "Ossora, are you out of your mind? This is Brian's territory. He will only destroy the existing order in the Fringe. Why are you defending him? Ossora, the Five Sovereigns have ruled the Fringe for many years. Do you want to cede your territory to them? "
Ossora shook his head smilingly and said, "Of course not. But it seems to me that Brian isn't interested in us at all. Haha, you are the only one with bad luck. Not only did you fail to establish your dominance, you even got yourself into trouble."
Salas was in a bad mood. He immediately shouted at Ossora, "Ossora, what do you mean by that? Are you going to defend that outsider? "
"Not really. If you can kill Brian first, I don't mind if you destroy this place. But before Brian dies, I have promised someone to look after this place for him. Haha, I hope you can do me a favor, "said Ossora. His smile was devoid of anger but his words were sharp.
"Short-sighted!" shouted Salas angrily. "Fine, let's see if you can stop me today!" Salas was ready to attack as he spoke.
Ossora chuckled and said, "Salas, oh Salas, it is unwise for you to fight me now. You have exhausted too much of your divine energy in Tanai Pandemonium. Your subordinates won't be able to help you in a real fight. Why don't you reconsider?"
"Cut the crap. I will destroy this place today. No one can stop me!" shouted Salas as he glared at Ossora.
As soon as Salas made his move, his subordinates who were planning to destroy the Pandemonium scattered in all directions. The shockwaves from the battle between the two Overgods were too great. Once an intense battle broke out, all living beings in the vicinity would be affected.
His subordinates were already exhausted from the Pandemonium and many of them were injured. They were at their weakest. If the two Overgods were to get into a fight, they wouldn't have the time to care about their subordinates and they would be the ones to suffer the most.
The two Overgods were about to fight in the Pandemonium. To prevent the shockwaves from the battle from damaging the Pandemonium, Ossora immediately retreated a distance away.
Salas was furious. He ignored everything else and chased after Ossora.
For a moment, the sky was filled with lightning bolts. Ossora landed on the ground and used the earth to congeal into two gigantic beasts that intercepted the lightning bolts.
The two Overgods clashed near the Pandemonium. Thunderous booms resounded incessantly. Bolts of lightning and mounds of earth were uprooted from the ground. The energy of lightning and earth destroyed two mountains near the Pandemonium, razing everything to the ground.
A battle between Overgods would usually last for a long time. In addition to the fact that the two were evenly matched in strength, the battle was truly earth-shattering. It would take at least a day or two to end.
At this moment, Han Shuo was rushing towards the Pandemonium at lightning speed.
In the Fringe, the other three Sovereigns sensed the terrifying commotion coming from the Pandemonium at the same time. Tyre, Logue, and Wasis rushed towards the Pandemonium without hesitation.
