Seeing that Aileen had controlled the Sha energy, Shadow Master immediately charged towards Warwick. He gathered the power of Wrath Soul in his hands and unleashed a set of exquisite Drunken Fist techniques on Warwick, forcing Warwick to stop releasing Sha energy.
Warwick, with his pitch-black eyes, looked at Shadow Master in disbelief, "You weren't affected by the Sha energy?"
Shadow Master said coldly, "Are you very disappointed?"
He pressed forward again, continuing his attack.
Warwick sneered. He had only been attacked by this Pandaren because he was releasing Sha energy. Otherwise, with the host's strength, how could he have been hit?
He met the attack, moving extremely swiftly and with immense force. Shadow Master had no time to dodge and was hit squarely by his blow.
However, an invisible shield blocked his weapon.
"What?" Warwick was astonished, "This is Sha energy..."
Shadow Master seized the opportunity, and a punch imbued with great power sent Warwick flying.
Warwick stood up in disbelief, "How can you control Sha energy? Are you also a Sha?"
Shadow Master charged at Warwick, "I am a Pandaren!"
Warwick frowned. He didn't know what was strange about Shadow Master. But before he figured it out, he wouldn't act rashly. He quickly retreated, dodging Shadow Master's attacks. He retreated into Korevis, letting the flames burn his body, but not allowing Shadow Master to hit him.
If I can't defeat you, can't I at least hide from you?
His plan was good, but reality did not change according to his will. The Golden Crows pursued him, surrounding him from all directions.
Warwick's speed was fast, but the Golden Crows' speed was faster. Warwick's strength was strong, but the Golden Crows' strength was even stronger.
The sun fire burning on their bodies was the bane of Sha energy. Warwick dared not let the Golden Crows touch him, but he was utterly unable to escape unscathed from the attacks of so many Golden Crows.
Before long, Warwick was ignited by the sun fire, and the Sha energy within him became fuel for the sun fire.
Sha of Hatred had no choice but to abandon Warwick's body, wanting to escape from this group of terrifying monstrous birds.
Shadow Master had been waiting for a long time. A punch with the mighty power of two Sha Demons wounded Sha of Hatred. The scattered Sha energy from Sha of Hatred was also absorbed by Wrath Soul, and the power Wrath Soul provided to Shadow Master became even stronger. With punch after punch like this, Sha of Hatred was directly annihilated.
Without Warwick's command, the Mantis Shrimp immediately collapsed. They scattered and fled, heading towards the amber forests of other Mantis Shrimp.
Wrath Soul absorbed Sha of Hatred completely, and Shadow Master frowned. He still felt the presence of other Sha Demons.
He closed his eyes and sensed for a moment, discovering that there truly were Sha Demons in the south.
He informed General Zhu of this matter, and General Zhu said, "The army is now tired and needs rest. We will first go to the Shadow-Pan Garrison for rest, and while we are there, we will visit August Celestial Niuzao. Then we will go to conquer the Sha Demons."
Shadow Master felt that made sense.
Upon arriving at the Shadow-Pan Garrison, he immediately went to visit August Celestial Niuzao. Niuzao was a black ox, said to have created the Yaungol.
Niuzao sensed the power of Wrath Soul and the Sha energy on it, but upon hearing that August Celestial Yu'lon had endorsed this divine artifact, he, like August Celestial Xuen, no longer paid much attention. When the Sha Demon in the south was mentioned, he said, "Long ago, Shao Hao came to Mantis Highlands and defeated fear here. The Sha Demon you sense should be the Sha of Fear. I will bestow upon you courage to fight against the Sha of Fear."
Shadow Master wanted to say that he would not be affected by Sha Demons, but receiving the blessing of August Celestial Niuzao was also a good thing for the Pandaren.
After the army had rested, everyone bid farewell to August Celestial Niuzao. They traveled south, heading straight for the Heart of Fear, the location of the Mantis Shrimp Empress.
Upon arrival, they discovered that the area had already become a territory of Sha Demons. The surrounding Mantis Shrimp tribes, led by their heroes, were besieging the Heart of Fear.
They had clearly discovered the Empress's corruption and were no longer willing to obey her commands.
The arrival of the Pandaren made the Mantis Shrimp very wary. However, the Pandaren did not attack them; instead, they took advantage of the Mantis Shrimp tying down the Empress's army and swiftly attacked the Empress's lair.
That was a giant Kypari Tree, now known as the Heart of Fear. The Sha of Fear had not only controlled the Empress but also corrupted this Kypari Tree.
The elves formed a sharp spearhead, leading the Pandaren army to the Heart of Fear. They surrounded this giant Kypari Tree. The Pandaren and Druids were responsible for blocking the returning Mantis Shrimp; the Golden Crows and Shadow Master were responsible for pursuing and killing the Mantis Shrimp Empress; Lunden, with the priests of Firmament Light, was responsible for summoning sun fire to burn down the massive Heart of Fear.
The Mantis Shrimp prepared to reinforce, but the Mantis Shrimp rebels seized the opportunity to pursue them from behind, cooperating with the Pandaren to defeat the Empress's army.
The Golden Crows ignited the Empress's body with sun fire, forcing the Sha of Fear to flee. Shadow Master seized the opportunity to strike and eliminate the Sha of Fear.
Gale, who was training Cloud Serpent hatchlings, felt the prayers of Lunden and the others and reluctantly stood up. He activated the Rainbow Bridge, brought down a pillar of sun fire, and ignited the Heart of Fear.
The Heart of Fear quickly burned down, and the sun fire swept towards the surrounding corrupted areas.
The Pandaren army immediately gathered, and Lunden led the priests in setting up a divine barrier. When the sun fire encountered the divine barrier, it immediately went around it.
The Mantis Shrimp rebels, seeing the Heart of Fear incinerated, fled in terror, stopping only when they could no longer see the flames.
They waited for a long time and, finding that the flames had not reached them, returned to inspect, only to see a lush grassland.
"What happened? Wasn't this place burned down?"
"A miracle! This is a miracle!"
While the Mantis Shrimp worshipped the grassland, the Pandaren had already returned to the Sunset Gate.
The monks brought news of two other Sha Demons: the Sha of Doubt and the Sha of Despair were rampaging in the Krasarang Wilds and Jade Forest. Shadow Master immediately rushed over. After absorbing four Sha Demons, he alone could completely defeat the Sha Demons.
Although Aileen still wanted to explore the beautiful scenery of Pandaria, Gale had already sent someone to have her return to Sky City as soon as possible.
The elven army returned to Mogushan Palace and, through the portal, returned to Sky City. Lunden stayed behind with a portion of the priests, wanting to spread the faith of the Sun God in Pandaria.
Gale had twice brought down pillars of sun fire, demonstrating his power, and had already laid the foundation for spreading the faith.
Shadow Master, alone, rushed to the Temple of the Red Crane and, with the cooperation of August Celestial Chi-Ji, eliminated the Sha of Doubt. Then he rushed to Qinglong Temple and, with the cooperation of Yu-long, eliminated the Sha of Despair.
Six of the Seven Sha had been eliminated, with only the last one, the sha of pride, unaccounted for.
Guided by Wrath Soul, Shadow Master arrived at the Vale of Eternal Blossoms, where he sensed that the sha of pride was in Mistfall Village.
