Chapter 861: Omen Calamity (1/2)

GDK 861: Omen Calamity

Salas saw the changes being done to the Empyrean Peak but was powerless to stop it. His experts at the mountain foot were being injured and killed but he could not stop or block the attacks. He roared from the mountain peak, “Get out of the way! Get the fuck out of the way!”

Those gods at the mountain foot were struck by pillars of light. The space above Empyrean Peak seemed as though it had been ripped. Enormous asteroids were constantly crashing down. Even the energy of lightning that Salas assembled at this place was going out of control and it indiscriminately bombarded the region.

Salas was going to make the final attack and end Han Shuo once and for all. However, he suddenly discovered that his connection with the element of lightning all around him seemed to have been severed. He could then only use the divine energy in his body and not the energy around him.

The chaotic elemental energies had converged and formed a thick natural barrier around Han Shuo who was lying not far from him. As he approached Han Shuo, he discovered the previously undetectable barrier squeezing and shoving him, forcing him to retreat.

After carefully sensing for a moment, Salas discovered that the abrupt transformation to Empyrean Peak indeed originated from Han Shuo. The energies that gathered above the mountain seemed to carry tremendous firepower. But perplexingly, they were aimed at Han Shuo.

Salas was astonished for he could not understand how Han Shuo could assemble such a wide range of elemental energies together. When he discovered that those energies were trying to attack Han Shuo, he no longer tried in vain to break through the layers of obstructing barriers to attack Han Shuo. He pulled back to observe.

Han Shuo’s majestic body was glowing with dark radiance under the atmosphere flooded with every elemental energy. Demonic yuan filled every cell in his body. He was calmly preparing himself to face the impending Omen Calamity.

The energies accumulated and brewed for a long time before it finally struck. The first attack was formed using the lightning energy that Salas assembled. Thunder rocked the mountain as a lightning bolt of extreme diameter shot at Han Shuo. It was no less mighty than Salas’ attacks.

Han Shuo sent out his seventeen flying swords to face the attack. The flying swords formed a shield and a world-shaking explosion was heard when it connected with the tremendous lightning bolt. Han Shuo felt numbness on his scalp and stiffness in his limbs. His body was smoking. Although Han Shuo had tenaciously withstood the attack, it added even more injuries to his body that had just been wounded by Salas.

Several more waves of powerful attacks were still brewing in the sky. An asteroid the size of a small mountain glowing red-hot gradually appeared out of the spacetime rift. Han Shuo could tell straight from its ominous demeanor that the asteroid must contain a mind-bogglingly tremendous amount of power.

“Master, I’m not sure why but the Demonic Calamity in this universe is much stronger!” Cauldron Spirit suddenly transmitted, “From the looks of it, Master won’t be able to withstand its power. We need to find another way!”

The asteroid was still accumulating power. Smaller asteroid fragments were being pulled to the large glowing asteroid like a giant magnet. Han Shuo could sense that the giant, menacing asteroid had locked firmly on him as though he was the bullseye to a cannonball.

“What other way is there?” Han Shuo was at a loss for words and could not think creatively at this moment.

“Master, I can sacrifice my demon generals and take a few waves of attacks for you. That will increase your chances,” proposed Cauldron Spirit.

“Right, the Demonic Calamity targets my soul, but I have three souls. Will it split into three different forces?” asked Han Shuo hastily when he suddenly thought of it.

“No. The Calamity only targets your consciousness - the soul of your main body that cultivates demonic arts. Your other two souls don't cultivate demonic arts and so the Calamity will not allocate any energy for them.”

Han Shuo was alerted as it was at this moment that the fiery asteroid had completed its channeling. It started shooting at Han Shuo like a burning meteor. All the elements of fire in the vicinity poured into the asteroid and caused it to burn fiercely. It was much like Fire Elite Zombie and Metal Elite Zombie fusing their energies.

Demonslayer Edge, the very first demonic weapon that Han Shuo forged, was once again flooded with his demonic yuan. He temporarily cast away all his worries and with the Demonslayer Edge in his hand, he forged ahead to meet the asteroid. Simultaneously, the seventeen flying swords soared to the sky. They bombarded the asteroid using the Avici Godslaying Sword Formation along with the Demonslayer Edge.

Yet another world-shaking explosion sounded from the Empyrean Peak. The shockwave trembled Han Shuo’s consciousness. As his mind was connected with the Demonslayer Edge and the seventeen flying swords, he could feel his weapons. He felt as though he was being repeatedly thumped by a rock that was billions of tonnes in weight. He heard ringing in his ears and felt numbness throughout his body.

The Demonslayer Edge and the seventeen flying swords were both unparalleled divine weapons. Even the powerful asteroid formed by the Demonic Calamity started to crack under the exceptional weapons. Han Shuo endured the agonizing pain and directed his weapons to strike at the fissure.

TingTingTingTing…

The giant asteroid finally gave way under the constant bombardment. It suddenly shattered into multiple fiery pillars that continued to crash at Han Shuo. But with that, Han Shuo could eliminate the fiery pillars one after another and win by defeat in detail.
