Han Shuo had gone to Poison Fang Mountain, but he had not sensed Han Hao. He searched the surrounding area and still found no trace of him. Judging by Lolth's information, if anything had happened to Han Hao, the culprit had to be Saras, one of the Five Great Monarchs!
And so, Han Shuo came to Celestial God Peak.
Saras's direct subordinates occupied Celestial God Peak. The mountain thrust into the clouds like a broad sword, covered in defensive barriers of every kind. Even Han Shuo could not reach its summit without making a sound.
Looking up at the summit, Han Shuo spread his divine sense, slowly extending it outward. He sensed one divine soul after another...
After a long while, Han Shuo gave a soft exclamation. Through his divine sense, he had detected the souls of over a thousand vicious gods on Celestial God Peak. Dozens possessed the strength of an upper god, and seventeen of them were at the upper god late stage!
Even if Saras was not on Celestial God Peak, the forces stationed there alone were more than an ordinary person could handle. After carefully sensing the mountain from its foot for a while, Han Shuo did not act rashly. He continued cautiously searching for Saras's location.
A little later, Han Shuo frowned, puzzled. He could not sense Saras's presence anywhere on Celestial God Peak. As long as an expert who had surpassed upper gods like Saras was on the mountain, Han Shuo should have been able to sense at least something.
In fact, Han Shuo had already employed the Great Soul-Searching Art. Under its meticulous perception, even Osoe, another monarch skilled at concealing himself, could not escape Han Shuo's keen detection. Yet now, Han Shuo could not sense the slightest trace of Saras's aura.
