The first thing Wang Yi saw upon entering Slaughter City was a landscape littered with corpses and a massive city, dominated by a particularly bright, blood-red full moon.
Wang Yi couldn't help but exclaim, "As expected of Slaughter City! It's truly filled with slaughter everywhere. Although there are military patrols, the rule of Slaughter City is that there are no rules. If you're strong, you can survive here; the weak only face death. Indeed, the law of the jungle is an unchanging principle."
Just then, Wang Yi suddenly heard a female voice behind him!
The moment the voice appeared, Wang Yi immediately adopted a fighting stance.
"Welcome to Slaughter City. This is the capital of hell, a World full of slaughter. Here, you can obtain everything you desire, at the cost of your Life."
"Hmm? Isn't this the female guide from Slaughter City? Dressed in a black Gothic-style outfit, coupled with her somewhat alluring gaze—yes, this must be her."
"Hello! I am your guide. All newcomers to Slaughter City receive a twelve-hour novice protection period. During this time, I can explain anything you wish to know."
"It's her indeed. Looks like I guessed correctly."
After realizing the identity of the suddenly appearing woman, Wang Yi lowered his hand, but he still didn't relax his guard. This was Slaughter City, after all. In such a World full of slaughter, even a slight relaxation could lead to one's demise, especially since it was filled with Evil Soul Masters.
"No need! Just take me directly to the Hell Slaughter Arena!"
"Oh? Are you sure?"
The woman in black revealed a cold smile.
"If you enter the Hell Slaughter Arena, your novice protection period will cease to exist!"
"I'm very sure," Wang Yi replied simply and decisively. He came here for the Slaughter God Domain; otherwise, why would he come to this hellhole for no reason?
"Heh heh, another one looking for death."
The woman in black sneered inwardly, showing disdain for the masked man, but on the surface, she remained calm and said, "In that case, please follow me!"
On the way to the Killing Ground, Wang Yi asked questions while following her to the entrance of the Hell Slaughter Arena.
"By the way, I forgot to mention, entering the Hell Slaughter Arena requires a Bloody Mary! Otherwise, you can't enter!"
The woman in black smiled lightly at Wang Yi, reminding him.
"I know," Wang Yi's voice was cold. He then looked at a man, holding the Emperor Dragon Sacred Sword, and walked over. Soon, he returned to the entrance of the Hell Slaughter Arena.
Watching the masked man quickly return to the Killing Ground, the woman in black's lips curved into a subtle smile.
"Tsk tsk, it seems he really has some skill. I just wonder if you can survive until the end?"
Then, with the help of the woman in black, Wang Yi submitted a Bloody Mary and took out his wooden token. He quickly completed his registration, and the guide then spoke again.
"Each group consists of ten people. The teams have already been formed. Are you truly ready?"
Wang Yi gave the woman a deep look and confirmed again.
"From the moment I entered Slaughter City, I was ready. There's no turning back in this World; only by moving forward can one progress!"
"Then Life and death are up to fate! Good luck to you." The woman in black then transformed into a bat and flew away.
Just then, the announcement for contestants to enter began.
"Number 9496, please report to the Killing Ground!"
Hearing this voice, Wang Yi also said, "Come on, my journey of slaughter!"
Wang Yi held the Emperor Dragon Sacred Sword in his right hand, and a powerful aura of slaughter emerged. With a swift stride, Wang Yi charged forward!
More than ten minutes later, Wang Yi looked at the corpses scattered across the ground without any expression. After seeing that only Wang Yi remained in the Killing Ground, a voice soon rang out.
"Congratulations to 9496 for winning this round's championship!"
After exiting the Hell Slaughter Arena, Wang Yi began to consider the issue of lodging.
"I'm afraid I'll have to stay here for a while longer. With my current spirit power, I'm only two ranks away from becoming a Spirit Ancestor. Once I leave Slaughter City, I'll probably be able to break through to Spirit Ancestor."
Although Wang Yi was only a Spirit Elder, he could even contend with a Spirit King or a Spirit Emperor, especially with his Dark Golden Dreadclaw and ninjutsu. With just these two trump cards, Wang Yi was already fearless of Spirit Kings. In Slaughter City, these two things were his trump cards, and also the key to obtaining the Slaughter God Domain.
As for lodging, it's best to rest in the Shenwei Space for now. This place is too dangerous; it's better to be cautious and live longer.
Six months later. In the Hell Slaughter Arena of Slaughter City, a fierce battle was underway.
Two burly men, one wielding dual blades and the other a giant axe, were ganging up on a masked man. Besides these four, the remaining six participants were already lying on the ground, dead.
"Bang, bang, bang!" Several loud sounds echoed, and flashes of blades and swords intertwined. Each sound contained immense power.
"Kid! Go to hell! Take this axe!"
"Fire Release: Great Fireball Technique!"
Seeing the attack, Wang Yi leaped to dodge it. In mid-air, he quickly formed hand seals and then spat out a massive fireball from his mouth, attacking the man with the axe.
"You fell for it! Die!" Just as Wang Yi landed, he suddenly heard two whooshing sounds from behind him. He saw the two burly men, wielding two greatswords, already charging towards him.
Wang Yi remained calm, holding the Emperor Dragon Sacred Sword, and unleashed a lightning-infused sword qi towards the two men.
"Divine Thunder Extermination!"
Wang Yi forcefully swung his sword, unleashing a strike towards the two men. The powerful sword qi emitted by this single strike instantly pulverized all the participants and corpses in the Killing Ground into minced meat. The three burly men didn't even have time to scream before they were finished. The ground of the Killing Ground was utterly devastated, covered in sword marks.
Wang Yi was extremely excited at this moment. He hadn't expected the sword technique of the Emperor Dragon Sacred Sword to be so overbearing; just the first move could produce such power.
"As expected of the Emperor Dragon Sacred Sword, this sword technique is incredibly overbearing. If I could unleash its full power, its might would absolutely be capable of destroying the heavens and earth!"
As for the Clear Sky Hammer? What 'number one Tool Spirit in the World'! It's just a broken hammer, not even one ten-thousandth as good as this Emperor Dragon Sacred Sword.
The sword is the king of all weapons, the foremost of all weapons. In this World, Sword Douluo Chen Xin's Seven Kill Sword's attack power is no weaker than the Clear Sky Hammer. If it weren't for the sparse population of the Chen clan, would the Clear Sky Hammer even have a turn as the 'number one Tool Spirit in the World'?
"Once I grow stronger, the Emperor Dragon Sacred Sword will become the new number one Tool Spirit in the World!"
Speaking of the Emperor Dragon Sacred Sword's sword technique, he had fished it out from the system just a few days ago. Even Wang Yi himself hadn't expected to fish out such an incredible item.
"My Lord, that Hell Asura has already won thirty consecutive matches in the Killing Ground. In these past few months, he fights at least two matches a day, and today he won another one. Especially that sword of his, it's terrifyingly powerful. At his speed, I'm afraid he will—"
A seductive voice sounded. A woman in black was reporting information about Wang Yi to a middle-aged man sitting on a dragon throne.
"I know, but don't worry. This boy has no background; he's just a fledgling country bumpkin. Let him stir up trouble; after all, whether the Hell Road opens or not is up to me."
At this moment, the middle-aged man also spoke. His voice was somewhat hoarse and deep, but he showed no concern for Wang Yi.
"As my Lord says, he's just a mere country bumpkin."
"Alright, that's enough about this matter. Come here!" The person on the throne was already too lazy to discuss such things and directly ordered the woman to approach.
The woman also knew what she was about to do, but she didn't hesitate. She stood up and walked towards the direction of the voice. This Gothic-styled woman was clearly accustomed to such matters, or perhaps she had done it many times before. As she drew closer, she saw a middle-aged man wearing blood-red armor, with long black hair draped over his shoulders, and several demonic patterns on his face. This person was the Slaughter King of Slaughter City, who could also be said to be Tang Chen.
However, at this time, Tang Chen had been Parasited by the Blood-Red Nine-Headed Bat King, and his consciousness had been in a deep slumber. If it weren't for Tang San's help later, he would probably have remained asleep until death.
When the woman approached, she very sensibly knelt down, and the Slaughter King pressed her head, a comfortable expression appearing on his face.
