Chapter 87 Slaughter City, Tang Chen Awakens Above the Sky.
The dark red killing intent that had been brewing to its limit suddenly contracted.
Then, like a volcanic eruption, it exploded with a roar, condensing into two large scarlet characters filled with endless slaughter and majesty:
Slaughter!
[Opportunity Ranking, Fifth Place: Slaughter City]
[Location: Northwest of the Continent, Paradise of Sin (Stable passage manifested by the rules of the Sky)]
[Opportunity Description: This is the ultimate trial ground set up by the God Realm's enforcer—the God of Asura—to select successors. Its rules are unique, and soul skills cannot be used, leaving only the martial soul's origin and killing instinct. It is an unparalleled purgatory for tempering fighting will and condensing pure killing intent.]
[Core Opportunity: God of Asura's Divine Position Inheritance (God King Level, Core Orthodox Inheritance)!]
[Essence of Inheritance]: The God of Asura, who governs the laws of the God Realm, is in charge of "just killing". Its core inheritance lies in mastering ultimate killing intent, upholding one's true nature amidst slaughter, and eliminating evil rather than succumbing to desire. The City of Slaughter serves as the initial selection ground.
[Inheritance Assessment]:
1. Basic Trial: Accumulate 100 victories in the Hell Slaughter Arena to gain the qualification to challenge the "Hell Road".
2. Core Token: Successfully escaping the Hell Road grants the [Slaughter God Domain]—the cornerstone for unlocking the Asura God Trial.
3. Ultimate God Trial: Cultivate the Slaughter God Domain to its ultimate level, evolving it into the [Asura Domain], and complete the Nine Trials of Asura to inherit the authority of the God King and wield the laws of the God Realm!
[Heavenly Rule Enhancement: Some rules of the City of Slaughter are temporarily suppressed; those who enter can use Soul Skills! The difficulty of the Hell Road has been slightly reduced; the Slaughter God Domain obtained upon completion will be more refined and pure. Warning: Those with weak wills, even with Soul Skills, are easily lost in slaughter and fall into eternal damnation!]
[Entry Requirements: Any Soul Master may enter, but must be prepared to face death and ruin!]
The moment the information appeared, the entire Douluo Continent fell silent!
Then came a tidal wave a thousand times more violent than ever before!
"A god...a God King? Could it be an existence surpassing all previous gods?"
"The Asura God! The enforcer of the God Realm! My god, this background is terrifying!"
"The City of Slaughter...that's actually the starting point of the God King's inheritance!"
"Soul Skills can be used now? That Heavenly Canopy Rule is too strong! Doesn't this greatly reduce the difficulty?"
"The Killing God Domain! It's actually the key to obtaining the God King's inheritance!"
"..."
Countless Soul Masters went mad with desire, trembled with fear!
A God King!
This was an existence far beyond their comprehension!
The significance of his inheritance was enough to change the entire landscape of the God Realm!
In an instant, countless Soul Masters who prided themselves on their unwavering will and superior combat power had their eyes blazing with fury.
They turned their gaze towards the northwest of the continent.
There lay the shortcut to the pinnacle of power, and also the entrance to hell!
In the deepest part of the City of Slaughter, on a throne built of white bones and dark red rocks, a figure clad in dark red armor, with murky and chaotic eyes, and emanating a terrifying bloodthirsty aura, suddenly trembled!
He was none other than Tang Chen, who, during the Asura God Trial, had been misled by the Rakshasa's divine will and transformed into the King of Slaughter!
Just as the information in the heavens was fully revealed, especially the golden light "blessed by the rules of the heavens," which flowed into his body like a warm current, temporarily dispelling the Rakshasa's evil thoughts that had plagued him for years, his eyes, which had been murky for decades, suddenly regained a moment of clarity!
"The Asura God Trial... the City of Slaughter... I... I am Tang Chen!"
He roared in a low voice, his voice filled with endless pain, regret, and a trace of relief.
A flood of memories rushed back.
The glory of the Haotian Sect, the ambition to traverse the continent.
And... that blue figure buried deep in his heart—Poseidon.
He clearly felt that the connection between himself and the Asura God Trial, the moment the golden light entered, was completely severed by a gentle yet irresistible force.
A majestic, cold, and utterly emotionless domineering voice resounded directly in his restored consciousness:
[Tang Chen, the Asura God Trial examiner, lost his mind in the eighth trial, corrupted by evil thoughts, and failed to uphold his original heart of slaughter.]
[Trial—Failed!]
[God Trial Qualification, revoked!]
"Failed... Heh, failed..."
Tang Chen, or rather, the newly recovered King of Slaughter, raised his head and let out a sigh that was neither a cry nor a laugh.
There was not much resentment.
Instead, he felt a sense of relief, as if his decades-long imprisonment had finally come to an end.
He felt the power within him, still immense but no longer controlled by evil thoughts, and the completely severed connection to the divine trial.
However, his body seemed unable to hold out much longer!
"Go out... I want to go out... to see the outside world, to see... her..." he murmured, a light rekindling in his eyes.
It was a yearning for freedom, and a longing for old friends and past affections.
Now, with the rules of the Heavenly Canopy shrouding him and the restrictions of the City of Slaughter loosening, it was the perfect opportunity for him to escape!
Outside, all sides were shaken!
Notting City.
Tang Hao stared intently at the information about the City of Slaughter on the Heavenly Canopy.
Especially the words "Slaughter God Domain" and "Asura God," his tiger-like eyes filled with unprecedented shock and complexity.
"The City of Slaughter, that... that's actually the starting point of the God King's inheritance?"
He stroked the Slaughter God Domain he already possessed within him, his heart churning with turmoil.
He had never imagined that the sinful paradise he had entered for power and revenge would conceal such a shocking secret!
"So, I already possessed the...stepping stone to the God-King's inheritance?"
Deep within the Rakshasa Secret Realm of the Spirit Hall, Bibi Dong's purplish-black evil aura fluctuated violently.
She too was shocked by the information about the "Slaughter City" and the "Asura God."
"The Slaughter City actually holds the God-King's inheritance?"
An incredulous glint flashed in her purple eyes.
Having inherited the Rakshasa Godhood, she knew the chasm between a God-King and a first-level deity.
The Asura God was, in particular, a being subtly opposed to the Rakshasa God.
"No wonder that place is so special. It seems the waters of this continent run deeper than I imagined."
In the Star Dou Great Forest, at the Lake of Life, as the names of the "Slaughter City" and the "Asura God" resounded through the heavens, the temperature of the entire Lake of Life region plummeted to freezing!
"Asura!!!"
A dragon's roar, filled with endless resentment and killing intent, erupted from the lake's depths!
The seven-colored elemental light surrounding the Silver Dragon King Gu Yuena surged wildly, distorting space and trembling the earth!
Her exquisite face was now filled with a chilling killing intent, and her dazzling purple eyes seemed to burn with flames of destruction!
She would never forget that it was the Asura God King, along with four other God Kings, who orchestrated the split and fall of the Dragon God!
Her severe injuries, and the current desolate state of the Soul Beast race, were all inextricably linked to the Asura God King!
"The Asura God's legacy! He actually dared to leave a legacy in this realm!"
Xiong Jun roared furiously, his dark golden claws tearing through the void.
The Ten Thousand Demon King, the Crimson King, and other ferocious beasts were also enraged.
Terrifying malevolent energy soared into the sky, mingling with Gu Yuena's killing intent, shrouding the entire Star Dou Great Forest in a repressive and violent atmosphere.
Di Tian suppressed his anger and looked at Gu Yuena, whose killing intent was palpable: "My lord! This Asura God inheritance..."
Gu Yuena took a deep breath, forcibly suppressing the almost out-of-control elemental tide, her voice as cold as ancient ice.
"I know that the inheritance of a God King is no easy feat, but precisely because of this, it cannot be allowed to fall into human hands so easily!"
Her gaze swept towards the direction of Beidou Academy, then across the Spirit Hall.
"Closely monitor all human powerhouses attempting to enter the City of Slaughter! If necessary... prevent them from obtaining the inheritance!"
The appearance of the Asura God inheritance touched the deepest wounds and greatest fears in the hearts of Gu Yuena and all the top spirit beasts.
Beidou Academy.
The soaring crimson killing intent around Lu Bu resonated to its extreme with the killing aura of the sky!
He stared at the four large characters "City of Slaughter," feeling the pure call of battle and slaughter emanating from them.
His domineering eyes burst forth with an unprecedented, almost tangible, fighting spirit!
"Hahaha! Good! What a killing city!"
"What a Shura God's inheritance!"
He laughed loudly, his voice like thunder.
"Only such a killing inferno is worthy of the halberd in my hand!"
He turned sharply, facing Lu Xiao, who was sitting leisurely in a chair, and said in a deep voice with his fists clasped, "Dean! I wish to go to the killing city!"
"To use the killing aura of this place to sharpen my halberd, temper my battle spirit, and break through my bottleneck!"
Lu Xiao looked at the raging battle fire in his eyes and the aura within him that faintly resonated with the killing city.
He knew that this was the most suitable whetstone for Lu Bu.
He smiled slightly and nodded: "Go, remember, killing is a means, not an end."
"Hold fast to your heart, and you will achieve your goal."
"Understood!"
Lu Bu clasped his fists heavily and said no more.
He raised his halberd, and the killing aura around him subtly receded. He transformed into a streak of crimson light and headed without hesitation toward the northwest of the continent.
That direction, symbolizing endless killing and the opportunity of the God King, shot through the air!
The continent is once again engulfed in turmoil due to the reappearance of the Slaughter City and the inheritance of the Asura God King!
A fierce struggle and endless slaughter over the God King's inheritance are about to unfold in that sinful paradise, a bloody prelude!
