In the northwest of the Pandemonium, Han Hao, Metal Elite Zombie, Earth Elite Zombie, and Wood Elite Zombie were gathered in a barren mountain range.
Five thousand feet under the ground, there were many deep and complicated paths, and many rooms of different sizes densely covered the ground. There were no less than a thousand of them. Near this area, there were three mountains that had been hollowed out and turned into spacious stone chambers. However, there were no lights or lamps in those chambers and no one was living in them for the time being.
"Big Brother, we're exhausted. One underground palace and three mountains. How exhausting!" Earth Elite Zombie's face was rather pale, perhaps because he had exhausted too much of his energy.
The metal elite zombie was in a similar state. The golden armor on his body that was nurtured in the place of extreme metal had dimmed and he appeared to be very tired.
Only his brothers were in the underground. Han Hao, the Little Skull, had a much gentler face than usual. He furrowed his brows and took out a piece of dry yellow soil and a sparkling jade stone from his space ring. He handed them to Han Tu and Han Jin respectively.
Han Tu and Han Jin 'eyes lit up when they saw Han Tu take out the two items. They immediately snatched the items from his hands.
As soon as it landed in Han Tu's hand, it released a powerful earth elemental energy. Like water dissolving into the ocean, it seeped into the veined patterns on Han Tu's palm. Han Tu's pale complexion gradually returned to normal, and his eyes began to shine brightly once more.
Han Jin, on the other hand, chewed the sparkling jade stone into pieces and swallowed it. After eating a piece of jade, Han Jin's face was full of smiles as he said, "Big Brother, where did you find all these good things? Haha, I've been wandering around all the famous mountains and rivers but I have never seen Imperial Earth, Gold, and Jade Stones. These are all treasures of earth and metal! "
"I robbed them," replied Han Hao plainly.
"Haha, big brother is indeed the best. It seems like the days of plundering and pillaging in the Fringe are really interesting!" said Han Tu with a silly smile. He was as honest as ever in front of Han Shuo and Han Hao.
"Why do Little Gold and Little Earth have it, but I don't?" Han Mu harrumphed.
"I didn't find anything suitable for you. If I do, I'll keep it for you." Han Hao glanced at Han Mu and said calmly.
"If you really have one, remember to keep it for me. Hehe, even if I don't have such good stuff, I'm fine with beautiful women. Big Brother, you know that I like to create life! "Han Mu said with a lustful expression.
"Return to the Pandemonium. My subordinates and I will take care of the rest. These places are so big. It will take at least a year to fully equip all the lighting fixtures and daily necessities. "Han Hao looked at the three people and said softly.
"Got it, Big Brother. Haha, it just so happens that I can open up another underground passage to the Pandemonium. This way, no matter where we run into enemies, we can take care of each other. With this piece of Imperial Dust Soil, I can expand the two passages, "Han Tu scratched his head and said smilingly.
"That would be for the best," nodded Han Hao, the Little Skull. With one thought, he suddenly flew to the surface.
After a while, Han Hao arrived at the surface. He had reverted to his cold and emotionless demeanor. He looked at one of his subordinates who was kneeling before him and asked, "What's the matter?"
"Chief, please have a look," said one of Han Hao 'godhunters as he bowed and handed over a communication scroll to Han Hao.
After reading it for a while, Han Hao's eyes glinted and the scroll in his hand was burnt to ashes. After taking a glance at his kneeling subordinates, Han Hao instructed, "Gather all the leaders and convey my orders. Prepare to leave the Fringe in the next few days!"
The godhunter was puzzled. He did not understand why Han Hao would suddenly order all the godhunter leaders scattered across the Fringe to leave. Although he was puzzled, he did not ask too many questions. He nodded and respectfully acknowledged Han Hao's order before slowly retreating.
After the order was given, Han Hao, the Little Skull, returned to the underground and said to Earth Elite Zombie and the other two, "Father has something for me to do. I'm afraid that I will have to leave the Fringe for some time."
"What for?" Han Mu stared blankly for a moment before he giggled and said, "Big Brother, bring me along. I've been quite bored lately."
Han Hao shook his head and firmly refused. He said, "Father wants us to disguise ourselves as foreign members of the Godhunter Alliance and ambush passersby at the major checkpoints in the Dominions. This will let the divine guards in the cities of the Dominions know that godhunters have gathered and spread the news. Father did not instruct you to follow me, so I can't bring you along. Also, Father will be returning to Pandemonium Tanai very soon. When that time comes, there might be other things for you to do. "
"If that's the case, then forget it …" Han Mu could only nod helplessly after hearing Han Hao's words.
The four did not say anything else. Han Hao, the Little Skull, departed, leaving behind a few large, well-concealed projects for another day. Metal Elite Zombie, Earth Elite Zombie, and Wood Elite Zombie followed Han Hao and slowly made their way to the Pandemonium. Earth Elite Zombie continued to expand the tunnels along the way.
… …
On Glacial Peak, Wasis who cultivated in the edict of water was sealed in an enormous block of ice. He looked like a fossil that had been frozen for tens of thousands of years.
The top of Glacial Peak was covered in ice and snow all year round. The temperature was usually around -70 degrees Celsius. In some special regions of Glacial Peak, the cold toxins that never dissipated would accumulate and form blocks of extremely cold ice. The block of ice that Wasis was currently in was the coldest part of Glacial Peak. The coldness in it was so intense that it could instantly kill a lowly highgod.
The reason why Wasis chose Glacial Peak as his place of cultivation was because the cold toxins in the area were extremely cold. By hiding in the coldest rock and absorbing the coldness, Wasis's energy of ice could reach the purest state.
Outside the Glacial Cave where Wasis cultivated, a group of highgods of water were sitting cross-legged. Their hair and beards were covered in ice and snow. They looked like enormous snowmen with only the faintest ripples of energy flowing in their bodies.
Unlike Wasis, they could not use the frigid air in the Glacial Cave to cultivate their energy. They could only absorb a small amount of frigid air at the entrance of the Glacial Cave. Even so, they had benefited immensely. Their comprehension of the energy of ice was at least three times faster than that of those outside.
The five "snowmen" who were silently absorbing the cold air at the entrance of the ice cave closed their eyes tightly. Suddenly, one of the "snowmen" twitched his stiff eyelids and opened his eyes abruptly. An erratic shadow, mixed with the howling cold wind, actually sneaked in from the outside in a trance.
At first, the person thought that it was an illusion. He blinked his eyes and carefully sensed for a moment. Then, he discovered that there were indeed a few strands of frigid wind flying into the cave from the outside. He was startled. Creaking sounds came from all over his body. His frozen armpits began to unfreeze. He cried, "Oh no, someone has entered. The frigid wind in the Glacial Cave always blows from the inside to the outside. Just now, the direction of the frigid wind didn't change. It is clear that someone has entered the Glacial Cave at an extremely high speed and brought along a change in the direction of the wind! "
The faces of the other four changed. Creaking sounds came from all over their bodies. They asked in panic, "What do we do?"
"Of course, we have to report to His Lordship immediately. His Lordship should still be cultivating in the Glacial Cave. If he can't get out of the Glacial Cave in time, he may be in danger! "shouted the person. He was about to rush into the Glacial Cave to rescue his Lordship.
Suddenly, a bone-chilling voice came from the Glacial Cave, "Stay where you are!"
When the five of them heard the voice of the icy cave, they immediately stopped in their tracks. The other four looked at the first person who spoke with a blank expression. He was stunned for a moment before he sat down cross-legged and said, "Since Master has spoken, there will definitely be no problems. We don't need to be anxious."
Seeing this person sit down, the other four also nodded. One of them asked, "Ansett, who do you think will come?"
Ansett shook his head and said, "I don't sense any familiar energy. It should be an expert on the same level as His Lordship. There are only a few experts in the Fringe who are on par with His Lordship. In the past, His Lordship Salas and Lord Logue would often come to the Fringe, but it was always an honorable visit. I wonder if it's them this time? "
"I don't think so?" The person who asked the question shook his head and said, "Salas has left the Fringe and disappeared without a trace. As for Logue, I heard that he had some conflict with His Lordship the last time. I don't think it's him either. Other than those two, I don't know who else is coming. "
The five couldn't hear the voice coming from inside the Glacial Cave. They tried to guess the identity of the intruder, but no matter how hard they tried, they couldn't figure out who it was.
After half a day, a dark shadow flashed out of the ice cave, turning into a faint light and disappearing into the distance.
The five of them had been waiting for so long just to see who the intruder was. However, after the figure appeared, no matter how hard they tried, they couldn't tell who it was.
A long time after the person disappeared, Ansett pondered for a moment before saying softly, "It's definitely not Lord Logue and Lord Salas. One of them cultivates the energy of death, while the other cultivates the energy of lightning. If it were them, there would more or less be traces of the elemental energy of death and lightning here!"
"Then who could it be?" One of them asked curiously.
"I don't know. However, that shadowy figure looked extremely majestic. There was a sinister aura in the chilling wind he brought with him. He seems to be quite similar to a person who has been in the limelight recently, "Ansett suddenly said after a moment of silence.
"Are you talking about the one from Pandemonium?" the four exclaimed in shock and amazement.
"Hmph!" Suddenly, a soft snort sounded from within the Glacial Cave.
The five of them were startled. They kept quiet out of fear and no longer dared to talk about it.
