Chapter 425: Han Shuo’s sudden change (1/2)
GDK 425 – Han Shuo’s sudden change
Han Shuo understood that this was because he had been too greedy. However, with things reaching this point, he didn’t have a good solution.
As his mind was connected with the Demonslayer Edge, with the chaotic negative negative energy within the Demonslayer Edge scattering everywhere, it gradually affected Han Shuo’s calm frame of mind. An intention of slaughter unconsciously leaped into his mind. It was like a toxin enhancer, causing Han Shou’s heartbeat to start increasing.
Not good! Han Shuo was alarmed.
This feeling had not appeared for a long time. Han Shuo knew that this is a sign of entering demonhood. The Demonslayer Edge was unfortunately still wildly absorbing the negative energy within Ossen City, while Han Shuo was absorbing the soaring killing intent through the vortex. Both of these energies required Han Shuo’s manipulation and an error on one side will immediately affect the other.
Han Shuo’s pupils started to gradually turn red. Blood-coloured light wound around his whole body and violent, sinister energy started emanating from Han Shuo. Sabakas and Karel, who were both inside the castle, immediately felt the changes to Han Shuo.
“What’s going on?” Karel was terrified as he looked towards the roof that Han Shuo was on.
Bang, bang bang!
Just as Karel finished speaking, crackling sounds came from the direction he was looking toward. Rays of scarlet light shot out, causing the pile of rocks that used to be houses in that area to shatter and disintegrate.
Sabakas stared blankly for two seconds but soon after teleported to the area where Han Shuo sat cross-legged. He saw that Han Shuo’s expression was distorted with malevolence, appearing extremely frightful. Strands of energy within the enormous vortex overhead formed rays of blood-colored light which flowed into Han Shuo’s body like electric currents.
The sinister and ruthless energy suddenly erupted from Han Shuo’s body. With Han Shuo at the center, the buildings surrounding him collapsed with a loud bang one after another. Some of the soldiers in the castle were caught off guard and were immediately affected by this formidable force. In a flash, almost a hundred soldiers were killed.
Space sacred magus Sabakas’ expression changed dramatically. Without saying another word, he hurriedly deployed a defensive barrier and then concentrated his mental strength and shouted loudly at Han Shuo, “Bryan!”
The pupils of Han Shuo, who was on the verge of falling into demonhood, had become a frightful scarlet color. It was as though blood was flowing within his pupils and appeared extremely terrifying.
The loud shout made with Sabakas’ condensed mental strength, pierced into Han Shuo’s mind like a sharp needle. Han Shuo felt a slight headache and became clear-headed after a brief moment.
Han Shuo’s eyes spun rapidly for a while before he suddenly raised his head and roared toward the sky. An enormous killing intent was mixed within the roar. While Sabakas was ineffably horrified, Han Shuo suddenly flew up toward the sky like a lightning bolt, vanished within the blood cloud.
The dreadful roar resounded across the entire northern city district like thunder. Many experts sensed the fearsome energy contained within the roar and looked toward the area where Han Shuo was, momentarily clueless about what had happened.
“What happened?” Sacred swordmaster Karel hastily asked the startled Sabakas as he was late to the scene, only seeing a red flash shooting into the sky.
“I don’t know, I have no idea either!” Sabakas came to his senses, immediately shaking his head and answered frantically. He looked at the blood cloud which was amassing and becoming denser and said, ”However, I have a bad feeling. A moment ago, Bryan looked somewhat terrifying. There’s an extremely formidable energy in his body, so powerful that my heart rate quickened.”
Karel was shocked as he knew Sabakas’ true strength. When he heard Sabakas say that he felt terrified by the strength Han Shuo just revealed, Karel replied gravely, “I can sense soaring killing intent and evil within Bryan’s roar. I think something is amiss.”
“I’m also worried about that. Just a moment ago, his gaze looked extremely unfeeling and felt extremely unfamiliar. He was totally different from the Han Shuo we usually see. I’m certain that something we can’t understand must have happened to his body.” Sabakas was also feeling down as he replied Karel.
Karel suddenly shouted in alarm, “Look! The blood cloud in the sky is moving! Oh? It’s actually moving in Ashburn’s direction!”
“Guys, what’s going on? What happened here?” Firenze had come over and asked calmly.
Amyes, Emily, and a few others had come along with Firenze. They had all heard the frightening roar originating from here, which filled their hearts with doubt and bafflement, and immediately came to investigate.
Fanny and Pheobe who were originally still on the second floor had also stopped their conversation and rushed over in a panic. They had no idea why Han Shuo would let out such a terrifying roar, causing them to be filled with worry and panic.
Sabakas didn’t answer Firenze’s question and instead creased his brows as he looked toward the sky.
The blood cloud had originally sat quietly in the sky above the castle, continuously absorbing negative energy from the entire northern city district. Although it grew in volume, it didn’t move.
But now, the thick blood clouds had started to move!
The blood cloud’s migration caused the weather to change drastically. An oppresive pressure carrying the weight of a mountain came crashing down. An enormous wicked aura gradually left the sky above the castle and headed toward the location of Ashburn and his allies.
“Emily, do you know what just happened?” Amyes creased his brows as he sought clarification from Emily.
Of the people present, Emily was the most familiar with Han Shuo. When Amyes completed his question, everyone turned their gazes toward to Emily, all of them curious and puzzled.
