Chapter 560: The Fountainhead of Evil (2/2)
There was a turbulent, grayish air blowing all around. When Han Shuo concentrated his attention to look all around, he discovered that he had indeed entered another dimension. Huge, colourful rocks were suspended in midair as far as the eye could see. They looked like meteorites floating in the air that constantly sparkled with splendid lights. This enchanting lightshow gave its observers a feeling that they were inside an absurd dreamscape.
Right ahead was a system of tunnels made of air streams, constantly radiating strange lights. Gust after gust of violent wind whooshed from their sides. The wind blew so violently that even the giant rocks were swaying.
“Follow us! Move!” Manticole yelled at the top of his lungs. The sound that reached Han Shuo’s ears, however, was as though it had been muffled through layers of concrete, and was as soft as the voice of an ant.
Han Shuo creased his brows and turned to look at Manticole who was within an arm’s reach. He realized that the Void really was miraculous. Manticole, a being with the strength of a lowgod, shouted at the top of his lungs from such a short distance away, yet the voice propagated was only this faint.
Han Shuo activated his consciousness. Immediately, he sensed the presence of all kinds of energies at this entrance into the Void, namely, the eight elemental energies, four edictal forces, as well as some rather uncommon energies like fear and hatred.
“These energies were left by those experts whose souls perished inside the Void, formed from the remnant energies inside their bodies. Do not ever attempt to absorb these energies. They have drifted about in the Void for countless years, and are contaminated with some kind of unknown aura. Just like the stardust current, it had an intense corrosive power on the soul,” Leviathan hastily said.
Both Manticole and Leviathan appeared apprehensive and uneasy after arriving outside the Void. They constantly passed on words of caution to their minions beside them. After saying those words, Leviathan proceeded forward cautiously. A spiderweb-like structure made of the energy of lightning rapidly took shape in their path ahead. It completely cleansed off intense energies at the front of the party. Meanwhile, Manticole took charge of the rear, and formed a zone of absolute darkness in the area behind them. With the two Demon Kings working together, utilizing the energies of darkness and lightning, every inch of the space within their protections was isolated and invulnerable to the plethora of energies around them. Not a single one of those Demons received the slightest harm.
Han Shuo, who stood between Manticole and Leviathan, unfolded his consciousness after entering. He immediately sensed the chaotic mixture of all kinds of energies. A large part of that energy was left behind by experts who had yet to possess divine energy that previously entered the Void. They were mixed together with some terrifying and strange energies inside the Void, causing them to adopt extremely corrosive properties towards the soul. Perhaps it was due to the strangeness of the Void that they did not dissipate and vanish between heaven and earth!
All of a sudden, Han Shuo’s demonic infant became restless. Towards the various sorts of chaotic energies found in this place, the demonic infant was like a hungry and thirsty child, and it instinctively craved to devour them. With one thought, the demonic infant began revolving at high speed. Black electrical sparks suddenly covered the space between Han Shuo and his protective shield. Demonic yuan attached to his protective shield like sinister fluids.
In an instant, Han Shuo seemed to turn into a giant magnet. All kinds of negative energies that flooded the entrance to the Void such as death, destruction, hatred, fear, and so on, abruptly and wildly gravitated towards Han Shuo like runaway horses.
“Mis- Mister Han Shuo, what is this are you doing?” Leviathan’s face jolted. When he discovered that the abnormalities with the energies around him were caused by Han Shuo, his heart turned furious, and so he scolded.
“Han Shuo, stop this right now! Do you want to kill us all?” Manticole was greatly shocked as well. He began to grow anxious of Han Shuo’s actions.
This entrance to the Void had always been filled with all kinds of energies. Had it been just a cluster or even a few clusters of these energies that were rushing to them, Leviathan and Manticole wouldn’t have minded. But there were a few hundred clusters of them simultaneously gushing towards them, and even with their strength, it would be a pain in the ass. Although they could purge those energies with their divine energy, that however would exhaust a great amount of their divine energy.
They were merely at the entrance to the Void. There were still various unknown dangers waiting for them inside. If they wasted a big portion of their divine energy before even entering the Void, then, when they actually entered the Void, they would have to be extremely passive. Hence, when they saw a few hundred clusters of negative energy simultaneously converging towards them, the duo urgently shrieked at once.
“Don’t worry, I will handle them!” Han Shuo calmly shouted in a deep voice. The demonic infant became a bottomless black hole, emanating the sinister and terrifying power of absorption.
The few hundred clusters of negative energies that suddenly rushed over, when accelerating to great speeds, turned into colorful and dazzling light rays, which completely cast onto Han Shuo’s body. Han Shuo revealed a pleasantly surprised expression and operated the demonic yuan to its maximum. It was at this moment that he realized what those shooting-star-like rays that he saw before entering were – they were actually formed as the energies flowed at high speeds.
All kinds of negative energy, drawn by the suction of the demonic infant, rapidly shone on Han Shuo’s body before they dissolved into Han Shuo’s body at an even greater speed. Han Shuo’s demonic infant had basically turned into extremely sophisticated machinery, rapidly operating, converting the negative energy into demonic yuan that flowed into every one of Han Shuo’s limbs, bones, and organs…
The duo of Leviathan and Manticole was about to shout and quarrel, until they suddenly discovered the abnormality inside Han Shuo’s body, and immediately shut their mouths. Their faces were aghast as they stared at Han Shuo, who had seemingly transformed into the fountainhead of evil!
