Chapter 913: Kabooom (1/2)

GDK 913: Kabooom

Had any of the four overgods attacked Han Shuo just decades earlier, he would have died without a doubt. But the Han Shuo now was a force to be reckoned with. The Hegemons of the Death, Darkness, and Destruction Dominions as well as a former Sovereign, Salas, must join forces just to get a shot at killing him.

“There’s no escape this time, Bryan!” shouted Salas.

As Han Shuo had deployed Demonic Blood Disassembly to escape from the City of Gorging Clouds just weeks earlier, he was not at his tip-top condition and cannot fight at peak performance. While sensing the mighty auras the four overgods emanated, Han Shuo accepted that he would have to fight a battle lopsided against him.

Although Han Shuo could activate Demonic Blood Disassembly and escape from the Misty Sea, using this escape technique again when such little time had passed would come with serious repercussions.

If Han Shuo were to use the Demonic Blood Disassembly to escape from this ambush, his demonic body will suffer injuries that he must take a much, much longer time to recover. This will mean that he won’t be at his peak condition after returning to the Fringe, putting himself under a risk he cannot accept given how treacherous Sovereigns like Tyre and Logue were.

Han Shuo wore a dark face as he sensed the four menacing auras while racking his brain for an escape plan.

“The four of us had prepared for this moment for a long time. Now that you are inside our trap, you can forget about leaving!” said the colossal figure as he stared down at Han Shuo with his green eyes. Using the energy of destruction, he formed an enormous energy field around him and used it to alter the properties of the seawater, preventing Han Shuo from escaping by diving into the ocean.

“What a shame, he could have been an excellent servant,” remarked the masked overgod sitting on a white bone throne. He started approaching Han Shuo slowly and the white bones that made his throne started glowing with a milky white halo. The grayish aura of death from the environment started gathering towards him. The other three overgods immediately started moving with great rapport.

The four overgods slowly closed in on Han Shuo. The energies of death, darkness, destruction, and lightning slowly accumulated and flooded the Misty Sea. They unfolded their domains of divinity, causing the region to be devoid of all other elements. Four violent energies began compressing Han Shuo from the zenith, nadir, forward, and aft.

The four must have detailedly discussed how they should trap and kill Han Shuo. They might have even practiced it beforehand. The four energies were perfectly joined up on their intersections and had sealed off every inch of space that Han Shuo could leave from while slowly converging, shrinking the area that Han Shuo could move.

Immediately after, Han Shuo realized that he needed to stake his all or he won’t be leaving the Misty Sea in one piece.

Han Shuo cursed in his mind and he no longer hesitated. The energies from thousands and thousands of demon generals suddenly gushed into his demonic body, boosting the already immense power his body possessed. He was determined to give an all-out fight.

But this time, Han Shuo did not utilize the Myriad Demon Transformation and fought using the demonic infant even though it would grant him access to vast amounts of power. Although the situations were equally dire, what he was facing in the Misty Sea was different from what he had to face in the Broadhurst Residence. Not only must he leave the Misty Sea as soon as possible, but he must also bring his physical body along.

Back then in the City of Gorging Clouds, Han Shuo needed to face only two overgods forces. He knew that the black hole attack deployed by Yarus cannot injure his demonic infant.

But now, in the Misty Sea, not only must Han Shuo face four overgod experts, but most significantly, he will be fighting Salas, a cultivator of lightning energy. The energy of lightning was greatly damaging to lifeforms like demon generals and the demonic infant.

The energy of lightning had always been the bane of incorporeal lifeforms. Although Han Shuo was not afraid of the lightning energy from an ordinary god, Salas was no ordinary god. Han Shuo was worried that his demonic infant would be injured once struck by Salas’ overgod lightning energy.

Therefore, Han Shuo did not use the Myriad Demon Transformation but transferred the demon general energy to his physical body and temporarily boosted his strength.

When the seemingly infinite amount of power gushed into every cell of Han Shuo’s body, his demeanor and even his attitude transformed. He suddenly raised his head at the sky and laughed like an unstoppable maniac. Meanwhile, the seventeen flying swords emerged from his body and orbited him in bizarre trajectories. A chilling, sinister, wicked aura surged as radiances burst from those swords that were dragging long trails of lights.

An instant later, the seventeen flying swords suddenly overlapped into one, transforming into an enormous sword five meters wide and a hundred meters long made of pure sword radiance.

Deicide Slash, the second form of the Avici Godslaying Sword Formation took shape in an instant. Immediately, it went slashing at Salas who was hovering high in the sky.

The enormous sword made of pure power seemed unstoppable. It tore a hole in the field of lightning energy and viciously went after Salas.
