Chapter 565 - Fishing in Troubled Waters
GDK 565: Fishing in Troubled Waters
After Leviathan and Manticole deployed their Domains of Divinity, save for the elements of lightning and darkness, no other energy could be found within the space. Han Shuo had yet to breakthrough to the Nine Changes Realm in his cultivation of demonic arts. Therefore, he would be at a disadvantage to stay within their Domains of Divinity. Regardless of his intentions, Han Shuo had to first make sure that he was able to completely deploy his strength to its fullest.
Therefore, without much hesitation, Han Shuo decisively evacuated from the coverage area of the two Domains of Divinity at this critical moment.
Those remaining Demons following the two Demon Kings all revealed the same astonished expression when they saw Han Shuo retreating instead of advancing. Before they could say a thing, Leviathan, whose body was surrounded by lightning bolts, coldly shouted, “Scat! Go back and stay with Mister Han Shuo. What are you all still standing here for? Waiting to get killed?”
The party, as though having received a pardon, hastily hurried towards Han Shuo. In a battle between the four Great Demon Kings of the Abyss, with even just the tiniest fraction of their divine power accidentally landing on any one of those Demons, without any elemental energy available, they would all be dead in one hit without the possibility of survival. Needless to say, they were all terrified.
Only an exceptional existence like Han Shuo would be able to keep himself safe inside the Domain of Divinity of the four Demon Kings relying on his body and avatar cultivating in demonic arts and the edict of destruction respectively. However, Han Shuo obviously had some other plans and therefore left that fighting stage.
“Arhhhhh…” miserable shrieks suddenly resounded through the valley. A few Demons running towards Han Shuo, were most unfortunately struck by the meteor shower. They only managed to let out a few wails in pain before being crushed into meat patties by the meteorites.
Those pitiful people had yet to leave Manticole’s and Leviathan’s Domains of Divinity. Without any elemental energies to use, their bodies were fragile to the utmost. In addition to the fact that the meteor shower really was frightening, it was only to be expected that they violently die on the spot.
Dammit, these fools indeed know only to look after their own asses! Han Shuo cursed in his heart. Suddenly, his body, which had retreated very far away, turned into a streak of black brilliance. In the next moment, he was back in the space enveloped by the Domains of Divinity.
Bord and Zinia looked on helplessly at a Spatial Edge cutting over to them. With no access to the elemental energies that they relied upon for survival, they were noticeably sluggish. They had absolutely no way of dodging that Spatial Edge flying towards them. Their eyes were dropping with despair.
Han Shuo, who was resisting the energy of the black robe with all his might, almost jumped up to curse at Manticole. It was a no-brainer to him as to what kind of troubles those words of Manticole’s would cause him.
Indeed, just as expected, Golander’s ugly monstrosity of a face, which barely resembled anything close to a human’s, grew incredibly cold. He put on a disgraced smile and said, “Good, I’ve been looking for you for a long time. Kiddo, face your death!”
Upon finishing those words, Golander ceased all hand-to-hand combat with Manticole. His sea-monster body shot into the air with extreme agility. He charged at Han Shuo at a breathtaking speed.
Han Shuo blasphemed upon eighteen generations of Manticole’s ancestors, and furiously raised his demonic yuan to its maximum capacity to ward off the winding energy that was attacking him. However, shrouded by the boundary of Fear, Weakness, and Aging, which released all too formidable power, Han Shuo found himself in an extremely weak state.
Golander’s flight had caused his Domain of Divinity to move with him. An ice-cold energy hundreds of times colder than what was released by Ice Celestial Corey locked onto Han Shuo and rushed into his consciousness, causing his defensive power to reduce even more greatly.
Ice Celestial Corey was just a demigod, and was not even a basegod. Compared to Golander, a lowgod two classes above him, in terms of the manipulation of the elemental energy of water, Ice Celestial Corey was simply like a mound before the Alps. The gap between them was simply insurmountable!
Golander, as a lowgod, could seep his divine energy into his enemy’s soul. If it wasn’t for Han Shuo’s consciousness being so uniquely versatile, by now it would have been frozen and have no way to think!
On the verge of death, that death basegod soul of Han Shuo’s seemed to gain a feeling of familiarity when it vaguely sensed the energy that tangled around Han Shuo. In this life and death situation, Han Shuo made a decision. With one thought, that death basegod soul released a strand of faint energy. Suddenly, a desirable change happened to that deep dark magical robe in his hand…
