This space was extremely vast. Jiang Chen's current vision was exceptionally sharp, and he could easily see thousands of meters away.
In the distant distance, there stood a black colossal city. The thick city walls were extraordinarily broad, and above that giant city, a purple moon surprisingly hung in the sky.
Above the moon was endless blackness, like the existence of night itself.
Hu Liena's vision wasn't as good, but she could still see a small black shadow ahead.
Jiang Chen turned his head to look in other directions and immediately noticed teams similar to theirs.
In the other directions as well, there were teams of soldiers leading those who wanted to enter the Slaughter City, all converging toward one direction.
"So the entrance isn't just one; other places in the small town also have people entering." Jiang Chen thought to himself.
After advancing not long, the various teams converged together.
Jiang Chen took a look—roughly around three hundred people were entering the Slaughter City this time.
Finally, they arrived in front of a massive circular arena outside the city.
The arena was circular, thirty meters in diameter and two meters high. The entire arena was dark red, emitting a thick smell of blood.
Even within ten meters outside the arena, the soil was dark red, as if it had been soaked in blood for countless years.
Dread Knight Scott turned his horse's head and rode to the back of Jiang Chen and the others.
"Get up there." Scott's voice was still ice-cold, without the slightest trace of human.
More than three hundred people entering the Slaughter City immediately erupted in excitement. From the looks of it, they still needed to engage in a round of slaughter in the arena before they could enter the Slaughter City.
Jiang Chen couldn't help but reach out and grasp Hu Liena's soft hand. Although Hu Liena had undergone a month of brutal training, Jiang Chen still couldn't help worrying about her at this moment.
Seeing the concerned look in Jiang Chen's eyes, Hu Liena smiled happily. Ever since entering the range of the Slaughter City, Jiang Chen's attitude toward her had changed dramatically.
From deliberately keeping his distance before to taking the initiative now, it made her heart very joyful.
"Don't worry, your senior sister isn't a pushover either." Hu Liena forcefully squeezed Jiang Chen's hand and said with a smile.
By this time, quite a few people had already climbed onto the arena, but most were still hesitating below.
"If you want to enter the Slaughter City, get up there. Otherwise, die!" An ice-cold voice rang out.
Jiang Chen turned back to look. Around the arena, several majestic figures had appeared, all radiating powerful soul force fluctuations. Eight soul rings surprisingly circled their bodies.
This meant that these people were all Soul Douluo-level powerhouses.
Their killing intent was almost tangible, enveloping Jiang Chen and the others.
"Let's go up." Jiang Chen pulled Hu Liena and leaped onto the arena.
In the end, all three hundred-plus people gathered in the arena.
A moment later, a tall knight spoke: "You total three hundred and five people. In the end, only thirty can enter the Slaughter City. Enjoy the slaughter to your heart's content."
Jiang Chen's expression changed. These knights actually wanted all three hundred and five of them to slaughter each other at the same time, leaving only thirty survivors.
He couldn't help but grip Hu Liena's hand even tighter, his face grave as he said: "Don't leave my side no matter what."
With a thirty-meter-diameter arena and more than three hundred people fighting simultaneously, it would be extremely cramped and crowded. Everyone could face attacks from multiple directions at once.
If Hu Liena left his side, it would be very dangerous.
"I protest!"
"I'm not convinced! I paid money to buy Bloody Mary—why do I still have to slaughter with others?"
"I protest too!"
Voices of opposition rose one after another. However, at that moment, continuous puff puff sounds rang out, the sound of sharp weapons piercing flesh.
Some people had already begun the merciless slaughter. Everyone here had hands stained with plenty of blood; when they acted, they didn't even furrow their brows.
Jiang Chen and Hu Liena's expressions changed. They released their martial souls at the same time.
What surprised them was that while they could enter the martial soul possession state, the several soul rings on their bodies did not appear.
"The Slaughter City's suppression of soul skills." They both thought of this at the same time.
"Where are my soul rings? Where did my soul skills go?" Someone cried out in panic, but before his words finished, a sharp claw pierced through his chest, clutching a still-beating heart.
Someone had their head chopped off by a sword in their panic.
Someone's head was mercilessly smashed.
Someone was split in half.
...
In merely an instant, dozens had already died in the arena.
Everyone discovered the situation of their soul rings being suppressed. After the initial panic, each person calmed down, their eyes blood-red, and they mercilessly slaughtered one another.
Jiang Chen and Hu Liena stood back-to-back. Several corpses already lay at their feet.
Hu Liena held a long sword in her hand, her exquisite swordsmanship displaying terrifying power in this arena.
Jiang Chen's nails were sharper than swords, his body possessed immense strength, and his speed was astonishingly fast.
At this moment, with no one able to use soul skills, only close-combat ability was being compared.
Among the people Jiang Chen killed, several had extremely terrifying soul force fluctuations. He guessed that these people had at least reached the Soul Emperor level or above.
A Soul Emperor outside would definitely be a renowned existence, yet here, they could only be slaughtered.
Jiang Chen's terrifying combat power immediately drew the attention of some people in front of him, who panicked and hurriedly distanced themselves from Jiang Chen.
Quite a few people also tried to jump off the arena, wanting to rush out of this space; they no longer wanted to enter that Slaughter City.
However, what greeted them were ice-cold long spears. Hundreds of soldiers holding long spears surrounded the arena.
Further outside, several Soul Douluo powerhouses capable of using soul skills ensured there was no possibility of escape.
Suddenly, Jiang Chen's expression drastically changed as he sensed danger to Hu Liena.
A ferocious pitch-black great hammer, carrying immense force, smashed ruthlessly toward Hu Liena's head.
When Hu Liena's long sword made contact with the great hammer, the terrifying force from the hammer sent her sword flying aside.
Seeing that the pitch-black great hammer was about to smash into Hu Liena's head, Jiang Chen abruptly turned, his left hand pulling Hu Liena behind him in one smooth motion. His right hand clenched into a fist and met the pitch-black great hammer head-on.
The owner of the great hammer was a two-meter-tall, burly man with thick black hair covering his four limbs. His arms alone were as thick as Jiang Chen's thighs.
Jiang Chen sensed the terrifying soul force fluctuations emanating from this person, and his heart sank slightly.
This was very likely a Soul Saint; there was actually a Soul Saint wanting to enter the Slaughter City!
This far exceeded his expectations.
With a thought, he did not retreat at all. The corpse core in his body surged with profound power, and he activated the Strength Divine Ability, increasing his strength by five times.
Originally, under the amplification of his zombie body and martial soul, his strength was already extremely terrifying, but facing a Soul Saint now, he did not dare to be careless.
Hu Liena's veil had already fallen off. Her peerlessly beautiful face was filled with panic—that was a Soul Saint-level powerhouse! How could little Chen possibly block the opponent's strike!
She abruptly turned, wanting to pull Jiang Chen away, but Jiang Chen's fist had already collided with the pitch-black great hammer.
Clang~
An incomparably massive sound echoed across the entire arena. Powerful shockwaves spread outward with Jiang Chen and the burly man at the center.
Those nearby couldn't help but painfully cover their ears, looking toward that spot in shock and horror.
