Chapter 744 - Breakthrough
GDK 744: Breakthrough
Soon, surely enough, Han Shuo’s avatar that cultivated in the edict of destruction had successfully breakthrough to midgod realm with the help of the wonderfully bizarre energy.
But what made Han Shuo even more excited was that his avatar was only halfway through in assimilating the bizarre energy!
The energy continued to fuse with Han Shuo’s avatar even after it had become an early-stage midgod of destruction. The divine energy in his body continued to soar as more and more enlightening information about the true essence of the edict of destruction fused with his avatar’s soul.
As his happened, the shattered veins and bones in Han Shuo’s main body were rapidly being reconstructed. His body would rattle and crackle, as though firecrackers were set off inside his body. If anyone else was there, they will surely be shocked and unsettled.
Han Shuo would usually lose track of the passing of time while under such a state. Series of loud crackling noises would jolt every part of his body, causing him to involuntarily jerk and move with the crunchy noise. Han Shuo at that moment appeared freakish, to say the least.
“Congratulations, Master! You body has been strengthened once more. From the looks of it, you should have mastered the second level of Invincible Omen Body!” Cauldron Spirit’s voice sounded in Han Shuo’s consciousness.
Han Shuo was roused from what he felt to be ages of deep sleep. He shook his head and tilted his neck from side to side.
Gradually, no crackling noises could be heard from his body. Han Shuo cracked a grin and asked, “You mean that even when I’m not borrowing your energy, Invincible Omen Body will automatically deploy when I’m attacked?”
“Correct. On top of that, as your body has become stronger, you can now use my energy for a longer duration!” explained Cauldron Spirit.
Those divine guards and godhuntes who fell into the lake, as the entire surface of their bodies were exposed to the onslaught of the corrosive energy, it didn’t take long before the divine energy they had be exhausted. That was the main reason they would be reduced into skeletons. As Han Shuo had taken precautions, on top of the miraculousness of his Invincible Omen Body, just one drop of the liquid couldn’t cause him harm.
What a perfect tool for destroying bodies! remarked Han Shuo in his mind. Following that, he took out an enormous medicine container the shape of a barrel and started filling it with the lake water. He intended to do some proper research with it. The corrosive power of this water was not just perfect for destroying dead bodies, if applied on some malicious demonic weapons, it would greatly increase its destructive power.
Han Shuo felt no qualms about using such a foul poison. After all, he had been devouring other’s divine energy. If it wasn’t for the fact that Godswamp Pharmacy had made a move against him, not only that he wouldn’t bother about exposing their crimes, but he might even secretly purchase the malicious poison from Godswamp Pharmacy.
It has always been Han Shuo’s core motto that he would achieve his goal by all means necessary, by hook or by crook. He delightedly filled several large medicine containers with the lake water. He felt happy that he could obtain the poison without buying it from Godswamp Pharmacy!
But what made the lake so corrosive?
Han Shuo was at a loss. He knew that a lake wouldn’t turn into corrosive liquid without a cause. There must be a reason for it!
After a moment of hesitation, Han Shuo decided to examine the condition under the lake!
The lake water had formidable corrosive power. After testing its power by placing a drop on it on his hand, Han Shuo felt that he did not have enough demonic yuan to allow his entire body be submerged under the liquid safely.
Han Shuo then threw rocks, glassware, and even crystal coins into the lake. He discovered that the corrosive power only act upon flesh and tissue. Non-living things like glassware were only slightly affected by the corrosive power of the lake water.
Han Shuo had also tried using demon generals to probe under the water However, it seemed that the lake water could corrode demon generals as well. Although the corrosion wasn’t as obvious as towards physical flesh, the demon generals were very terrified of touching the lake water. It seemed that the corrosive power of the lake water could act on all living things!
After thinking for a while, Han Shuo took out the Cyano Demonblaze. With one thought, the Cyano Demonblaze was sent flying into the lake.
The Cyano Demonblaze was one of the demonic weapons Han Shuo refined. It carried no aura of life. Although it would still receive some corrosion, it wasn’t enough to destroy the demonic weapon.
Without any demon general attached to the Cyano Demonblaze, Han Shuo couldn’t observe the condition under the lake. All he could tell was that the lake was extremely deep. After maneuvering the Cyano Demonblaze underwater in random directions for some time, seeing that he wasn’t making much progress in learning anything about the lake, he decided to take the demonic weapon out from the depth of the lake.
“Master, let me do it,” suddenly, Cauldron Spirit’s voice sounded in Han Shuo’s mind.
Han Shuo was startled. He replied in a worrying tone, “I have tested the water. The corrosive energy in the lake water seems to act on all living things. Even demon generals dare not enter. Are you sure you’ll be alright?”
“As the ultimate demonic weapon, this puny corrosive power can do nothing to me. Also, if I have more demon generals, I wouldn’t fear energy a hundred times more corrosive than this lake water.
“Alright then, you be careful. Help me find if there’s any peculiar things under the lake. I feel that there must be a unique reason that caused this lake water to be so corrosive. No lake would turn so corrosive just like that!” Han Shuo agreed after thinking for a moment.
Then with one thought, the Cauldron of Myriad Demon slowly flew out from Han Shuo’s body and it automatically went underwater.
