Those who had gathered in the Pandemonium from all directions vanished in an instant. They had witnessed the battle between Salas and Ossora. They had even witnessed Han Shuo's terrifying evil energy forcing Salas to retreat.
Soon, there was no one else in the vicinity except for Ossora.
Han Shuo put on a faint smile and thanked Ossora again, "Thank you very much. Without your help, the Pandemonium wouldn't have survived until now."
"You're welcome. Haha, we are friends! It's only right for us to help each other, "replied Ossora with a smile. He did not dare to be careless.
Although Ossora was very curious about Han Shuo the last time he met Han Shuo, he did not have a deep impression of him and his attitude towards Han Shuo was not as friendly as it was now.
The Fringe was a place where the strong were revered. The last time Ossora met Han Shuo, he did not regard Han Shuo as an existence of the same level. It was inevitable that he would behave with the arrogance of a Sovereign. But today was different. Judging from the strength Han Shuo displayed in the battle against Salas, Han Shuo clearly possessed the strength to fight any Sovereign in the Fringe.
Therefore, when Ossora met Han Shuo again, he had already regarded Han Shuo as a hero of the Fringe. There was not the slightest trace of arrogance on his face.
"In short, I will remember this favor!" said Han Shuo smilingly. Then, he shifted his gaze to the center of the Fringe.
At the same time, the Cauldron of Myriad Demon whizzed out of Han Shuo's body. It transformed into a gray shadow and floated to the center of the platform with the image of the Cauldron of Myriad Demon.
Thousands upon thousands of wisps of gray smoke drifted into the Cauldron of Myriad Demon that was hovering in midair. The souls of those who died in the Fringe were pulled into the center of the formation and collected, awaiting the arrival of the Cauldron of Myriad Demon.
Ossora immediately sensed the flow of bizarre energy. He looked at the little Cauldron of Myriad Demon in amazement and wondered what kind of miraculous functions and energy this divine weapon possessed.
In Ossora's eyes, every part of Han Shuo was shrouded in mystery. He had yet to figure out what kind of energy Han Shuo cultivated and how he was able to force Salas to flee. To Ossora, Han Shuo was unfathomable. He wanted to know as much about Han Shuo as he did in Han Shuo.
Strands of his divine soul flowed into the Cauldron of Myriad Demon. With a calm face, he spoke to Ossora in a relaxed manner, "Do you think Salas will be able to establish itself in the Fringe?"
Ossora stared blankly for a moment before he chuckled and said, "Unless Salas can prove that he is stronger than you and me, his reputation in the Fringe will take a nosedive. Most importantly, he left his followers and left on his own. I don't think there will be many who will be willing to serve a master like him in the future. "
Han Shuo laughed heartily and said, "It won't be that easy for Salas to recover his strength. I'm starting to wonder if he dares to come to me again!" Even if Salas did not fight Ossora, Han Shuo was confident that he could defeat Ossora. Han Shuo believed that Salas himself was well aware of this. Therefore, Han Shuo did not believe that Salas would be so reckless as to throw his life away.
"It will be difficult for Salas to survive in the Fringe. Brian, the Omphalos has always been managed by the Five Sovereigns. Now that Salas has lost his power, are you interested in taking over?" asked Ossora smilingly.
As the center of the Fringe, the Omphalos was a very special place. Due to the existence of the Five Sovereigns, the Omphalos had always maintained a transcendent status. No one would dare to cause trouble in the Omphalos. The Omphalos was also a trading hub for the Sovereigns.
It was obvious that Ossora intended for Han Shuo to replace Salas and take over a portion of the Omphalos.
"Of course!" Han Shuo would never let go of such a precious land. He put on a mischievous smile and said, "I will be visiting the Omphalos soon. I would like to see who dares to collect my taxes!"
"Well then, I'll be taking my leave!" Ossora couldn't help but feel a little more concerned after hearing those words. Since he had achieved his goal, he still had to deal with some matters regarding Salas.
"Yes, thank you, Ossora. I will remember your kindness!" promised Han Shuo before he smilingly watched Ossora leave.
After Ossora's figure disappeared, Han Shuo put on an enigmatic smile and mumbled to himself, "Ossora, oh Ossora, you are truly considerate this time!"
… …
A few minutes after Ossora left, the Five Elite Zombies, Rose, Romont, Zovic, and the others walked out of the underground palace. They were overjoyed to see that the Pandemonium did not suffer too much damage.
"Father, you are finally here!" Han Jin heaved a sigh of relief and said, "If you had come any later, the Pandemonium might have been destroyed by those bastards! We have spent too much manpower and resources to build up the Pandemonium. I don't want to see our homeland being razed to the ground! "
"Where's Salas, Father? What happened to Salas? " Han Huo asked as soon as he emerged from the underground palace. He was more concerned about Salas who forced them to flee the Pandemonium.
"He ran away! I believe that even if he had fully recovered his strength, he would have to reconsider whether or not he can fight us! " Said Han Shuo calmly. He looked at the crowd smilingly and guaranteed, "From today onwards, you will not have to fear anyone in the Fringe!"
The Five Elite Zombies, Rose, and the others could sense the difference in Han Shuo even if Han Shuo didn't say it. They could only sense that the current Han Shuo was as oppressive as a mountain and as unfathomable as the ocean. They dared not think of making an enemy out of him.
The Five Elite Zombies, Rose, and the others did not know what had happened to Han Shuo, but they knew that Han Shuo must have made some kind of breakthrough and become even more terrifying than before.
Han Shuo wasn't a person who would speak without thinking. The fact that he dared to say that they did not have to fear anyone in the Fringe was enough to prove that he was no longer afraid of the Five Sovereigns!
"Father, are you saying that you now have enough strength to deal with the Five Sovereigns?" Han Mu was overjoyed. He knew what this meant and he could hardly contain his excitement.
Han Shuo nodded smilingly and replied, "That's right!"
"That's great!" Han Huo laughed maniacally and shouted, "In that case, we can do whatever we want in the Omphalos. We don't have to worry about taxes anymore! Those Sovereigns sure are greedy. They have to pay a hundred black crystal coins to stay in the Omphalos for a day. How many black crystal coins can the Omphalos earn in a day? "
"Alright, let's not talk about this anymore," Han Shuo asked, "Where are Goron and his followers?"
"Don't worry, Father. Goron and the others are fine. They are staying underground. Well, because Salas is here, I was worried that Salas will destroy the Pandemonium and everything he and his followers have. That's why I brought them underground. I believe that they will come out of the Pandemonium soon. "Han Tu explained.
"That's great." Han Shuo looked around and said, "The Pandemonium has more or less sustained some damage. Alright, the five of you will work with me. We will restore the Pandemonium to its original state!"
After a short pause, Han Shuo grinned and said, "Perhaps I can add some more power to Tanai Pandemonium. Hehe, even if one of the Five Sovereigns comes to destroy the Pandemonium one day, they will have to shed a layer of skin first! "
Back when the Pandemonium was being constructed, Han Shuo had yet to enter the Skybreak Realm. Therefore, his physical strength and understanding of demonic formations were not as strong as they were now. Now that he had reached the new realm, he had gained even greater power and a deeper understanding of demonic formations. Therefore, the Pandemonium was no longer the same as before.
"That's great!" the Five Elite Zombies exclaimed. They knew that Han Shuo was confident in his ability to make such a bold claim.
Han Shuo and his father then spent all their energy on the Pandemonium. They patiently made the Pandemonium more and more terrifying …
… …
"What?" Han Hao, the Little Skull, was standing next to a cold lake in a valley. He was looking at a windspirt who had come from the Pandemonium.
"Salas has been defeated. That outsider Brian has defeated Salas. Everyone has left the Pandemonium!" The unlucky windspirt had a terrified look on his face as he looked at the group of ferocious fiends rushing towards the Pandemonium.
When Han Hao sensed the anomaly in the Pandemonium, he put down everything he was doing and rushed to the Pandemonium. He had only made it a third of the way to the Pandemonium when he ran into this windspirt who was spreading news about the Pandemonium.
"I won't kill you if you tell me everything!" Han Hao was overjoyed to hear that Han Shuo had defeated Salas. He knew that his father had finally made a breakthrough and he was more excited than ever.
"Salas came to the Pandemonium looking for trouble. First, he suffered great losses. Then, he encountered Ossora. After fighting for a few days, he …" the windspirt knew what kind of people he was facing. He hastily recounted everything he knew.
Han Hao patiently listened until the windspirt finished. He nodded and instructed his subordinates, "Let him go!"
"Chief, this fella cultivates in the energy of darkness. Can I …?" one of the godhunters looked at the windspirt greedily and begged Han Hao.
"Spare me, my Lord, please spare me. I have told you everything, you promised to let me go!" The wind spirit knelt in front of Han Hao in fear and cried with snot and tears running down his face.
Han Hao waved his hand and said, "You may leave." Han Hao glanced at his subordinate who cultivated in the energy of darkness and said, "You must abide by the rules!"
"Understood!" the subordinate replied solemnly but did not say anything else.
"Let's turn around. We'll go to Sacas' place to take a look!" Commanded Han Hao. Instead of heading towards the Pandemonium, he planned to wipe out the remaining forces of Salas and plunder all the wealth that Salas had accumulated in the Fringe.
