Chapter 38: The Blood-Red Nine-Headed Bat Slaughter King Submits!
"How dare you cause such chaos in my domain! You are simply asking for death!"
"You have completely angered me!"
"I will devour your flesh and bones, turning you into my nourishment!!!" The Slaughter King howled as terrifying killing intent surged.
The massive bat wings spread wide, and the overwhelming killing aura was released in an instant. Countless bats flew out from his wings, attacking Ye Wen and his companions.
"Heh, the Eight-Petaled Plum Blossom Hammer."
Boom!
Ye Wen materialized his weapon and swung it with a single strike, easily shattering the countless bats into pieces.
"What!" The Slaughter King's expression darkened. "Such domineering energy!"
Ye Wen charged toward the Slaughter King, holding his hammer high.
"His power... it actually makes me feel fear..."
"Ha!"
Boom!
The Slaughter King faced Ye Wen's hammer head-on, only to be stunned by the terrifying power of Ye Wen's strike.
"To dare face my hammer head-on, you truly are brave! Slaughter King."
"Wh-why is he so strong!"
Psss!
"Ahhhhh!"
The Slaughter King spat a mouthful of blood, his body crashing to the ground with a huge impact, creating a massive crater upon landing.
"Who is this person? Could there really be such a powerful individual on the continent? His strength is no weaker than those two Slaughter Gods!" The Slaughter King, who had been extremely arrogant and terrifying moments ago, was now left dumbfounded, fearfully staring at Ye Wen, who stood tall with a black cloak, wielding two hammers.
"Hey, you little bat, aren't you getting up? My next strike is coming!" Ye Wen said with a mischievous grin, preparing to strike again.
The Slaughter King's face was filled with terror as he scrambled to get up from the ground, barely avoiding Ye Wen's second hammer.
"Damn!"
"Slaughter Domain!!"
"Ha ahhhh~!!"
A crimson energy burst forth from the Slaughter King, enveloping the area with his killing domain.
"My Slaughter Domain is the most domineering of all domains. Your soul skills, including soul bone abilities, are useless here. No matter how strong you are, you cannot defeat me!!" The Slaughter King's face twisted with fury.
He realized Ye Wen's power was terrifying, so he decided to avoid direct confrontation and use other methods to kill him.
"Not bad, not bad. Your Slaughter Domain is indeed powerful, but against you, I don't even need to use soul skills or soul bone abilities."
In his half-human form, Ye Wen had no soul skills or soul bone abilities—those belonged to the Deep Sea Magic Whale King.
It was like a human soul master using a self-created martial soul, not bound by restrictions.
And even though he couldn't use these skills, he had the top-tier weapon, the Eight-Petaled Plum Blossom Hammer, and other powerful artifacts like the Twin Whale Pearls, Thunder Pearl, and Inner Dan.
The Slaughter King wised up and started using various indirect attacks, constantly dodging Ye Wen's direct assaults.
Despite this, the Slaughter King couldn't hold out for long. With every strike Ye Wen made, he was desperately blocking and evading!
Boom! Boom! Boom!
"Too strong!"
"Too powerful!"
"I can hardly resist!"
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Ye Wen relentlessly pursued, wildly striking at the Slaughter King. It seemed like a chaotic barrage, but every hammer strike left invisible traces of thunder energy lingering in the air.
He was weaving a vast thunder net, and once the net was complete, he could instantly concentrate the terrifying thunder power into the Eight-Petaled Plum Blossom Hammer, creating a deadly thunder-based move.
And the thunder net had already formed. Zzzzzzz!
The countless traces of thunder energy in the air instantly gathered into the Eight-Petaled Plum Blossom Hammer, and Ye Wen transformed into a bolt of lightning, moving so fast that the Slaughter King couldn't even react in time.
"No! No!!"
The Slaughter King was filled with immense fear.
"Lie down! Slaughter King!" Ye Wen shouted.
Zzzz! Boom! Boom! Boom!
"Ahhhhh!" The Slaughter King spewed blood as Ye Wen's hammer slammed him into the ground, heavily injured and unable to resist any longer.
Boom!
Ye Wen stepped on the Slaughter King's body, looking down at him coldly.
Shaking his head, Ye Wen said, "Although you are parasitized by a 99th-level soul master, you can't fully exert the power of this body. If it weren't for the strength of this body being so formidable, that last hammer would have killed you."
"Who... who are you? What is your purpose for coming to the City of Slaughter? Could it be... to take revenge on the person whose body I inhabit?" The Slaughter King's voice was weak, his eyes full of fear.
"I came to make you submit to me and become my servant." Ye Wen slowly removed the hat covering his head and looked down at the Slaughter King. "Remember my name. I am Ye Wen, the Sea Soul Beast, the Deep Sea Magic Whale King, and you will become my fifth servant."
"Servant... Servant?"
In the next second, Ye Wen activated the Master-Servant contract power.
Soon, the Slaughter King was completely subdued in front of Ye Wen. "Master!"
The mighty Slaughter King, the ruler of the underground kingdom, the City of Slaughter, had now become a general under Ye Wen's command. The forces he had cultivated in the City of Slaughter would now be at Ye Wen's disposal.
Master-Servant contract power: 1 slot used, 15 slots remaining.
Types of creatures: 1 Da Ming (Cow Serpent), 2 Ming (Gorilla), 1 Orca Whale, 1 Shark, and now, 1 Bat.
"Get up."
Ye Wen helped the battered Slaughter King to his feet and then checked his attributes.
[Blood-Red Nine-Headed Bat King + Tang Chen Form]
[Cultivation: 100,000 years]
[Strength: Equivalent to a 96th-level Title Douluo (approaching 97th-level after activating the domain.)]
[Domain: Slaughter Domain.]
[Special Notes: Cannot transform through transformation power due to the Blood-Red Nine-Headed Bat King parasitizing a human soul master's body. It cannot allow the human soul master's body to enter a transformed state unless it completely erodes the human body, merging it entirely with the Blood-Red Nine-Headed Bat King's bloodline.]
"Just as I thought." Ye Wen had already anticipated that the Slaughter King probably couldn't transform, given that it was still Tang Chen's body, and the Nine-Headed Bat King had merely occupied Tang Chen's body.
Whether the Slaughter King could transform or not didn't matter to Ye Wen. What mattered was controlling the Slaughter King and the City of Slaughter.
"Alright, take us to your residence. You should recover your strength first. After that, I have some questions for you."
"No need, Master, I can recover my strength quickly."
"Oh?" Ye Wen was a bit confused.
"Master, please watch."
The Slaughter King released a scarlet energy, and the blood from those who had died resisting Ye Wen, Xie Hu, and Xiao Bai began to be absorbed by him.
The Slaughter King's injuries rapidly healed, and soon, he was able to move freely again.
