Chapter 195 The King of Slaughter Wants to Escape
Although they are called Soul Masters, for many people, the night is the best place to expose their true nature.
The former killing capital may still have daytime, which may have allowed these fallen ones to be somewhat suppressed.
But ever since the sky was shrouded in black mist, it seemed as if the evil desires in these people's hearts had been ignited.
The slaughter has begun!
Countless fallen ones lurk in the darkness, waiting to fight and kill.
After their deaths, their blood was absorbed by the City of Slaughter, while their souls were drawn away by the curse inscribed by Gu Xuan.
The entire outer city was now shrouded in a massive curse, which would capture the souls of any living being that died in its vicinity.
It also emits black energy that arouses people's bloodlust.
This place was originally a city of slaughter, the place with the strongest aura of killing.
Under the influence of the dark energy, these fallen beings nearly had their brains knocked out of their heads.
"Damn it, what on earth is this black mist?!"
The King of Slaughter slapped the armrest of the throne, cracking it open, his face filled with rage.
"Your Majesty, we have already dispatched the Terror Knights to investigate, but the black mist seems to be able to cloud people's minds. The Terror Knights have never returned since they entered it."
The maid said, trembling.
The black mist seemed to devour living beings; no one who entered it ever came out.
"Useless! Why didn't you notice when it first appeared?"
The King of Slaughter slapped the maid away.
He had tried to sense what the black mist was, but when his mental energy tried to reach it, it was suppressed by an even greater soul force.
This made him even more wary, and he didn't dare to venture deep into the black fog to explore on his own.
One by one, the men he sent out disappeared, which actually instilled fear in the King of Slaughter, who thought he was invincible.
He could only send his men to their deaths time and time again to investigate the truth behind the black mist, while he remained holed up in the relatively safe inner city.
The outer city was already in complete chaos, and the inner city was even more insane. In this oppressive environment, what normal people could possibly survive?
The maid who was swatted away had a red light flash in her eyes. As her soul power surged, a blood-red dagger appeared in her hand, and six soul rings of yellow, purple, and black appeared around her.
With the King of Slaughter's permission, she can use the techniques of a Soul Master in the City of Slaughter.
However, just as she was about to get up, before she could even use her soul skill, a huge foot stepped on her chest, deforming her large, snow-white breasts.
"Hmph, an insect is an insect, not even a brain. Who do you think gave you your power?"
The King of Slaughter looked down at the maid, his eyes filled with nothing but violent bloodlust.
This was his last maidservant; there were very few people left in the inner city of the Killing Capital who still possessed normal reason.
The combination of the killing factor and the influence of the dark energy caused him to occasionally feel a surge of murderous desire.
They longed to rush out of the inner city and plunge into the black fog to wreak havoc.
But he didn't dare; he didn't have Tang Chen's courage.
Moreover, judging from the current situation, it's possible that the black mist won't even be able to enter the inner city, after all, there's a god within the inner city—
Just as the King of Slaughter was still clinging to a sliver of hope...
Gu Xuan finally stepped into the inner city.
The spells in the outer city are merely for accumulating souls and triggering cataclysmic events. To convert the Shadow Legion, the spells inscribed in the inner city are needed.
At that time, the outer spells will attract living souls, and the central spells will transform them into shadow legions. As long as the City of Slaughter still exists, the number of shadow soldiers under his command will continue to increase.
Stepping into the inner city, Gu Xuan was greeted by a scene of ruins.
The vast inner city is filled with skeletons, and the scenery of half a month ago is no longer there.
At this point, apart from a few scattered individuals, most of the people in the inner city had already killed each other.
Those who are still alive are only lucky to have survived because they were too far apart to meet.
Without anyone to disturb him, Gu Xuan's inscription speed increased significantly once again.
However, the spell to transform the Shadow Legion is slightly more complex than that of the outer ones, which means that even if Gu Xuan speeds up, he cannot complete it in a short time.
"Damn it, this is outrageous! Who on earth dares to act so presumptuously in the City of Slaughter!"
Seeing the black mist begin to spread towards the inner city, the King of Slaughter could no longer sit still. He grabbed the Asura Demon Sword and rushed out of the Slaughter Palace, hovering high in the sky, but he was still ten meters away from the black mist in the sky.
The blood-red eye on the Asura Demon Sword emitted a terrifying red light, illuminating the entire inner city of the Slaughter City.
However, when the red light touched the black energy, it was easily swallowed up.
"Get out here! I know you've entered the inner city!"
The King of Slaughter surveyed his surroundings with a dark expression.
He has worked hard for decades to achieve what he has today, but now it's all ruined. How can he not feel pain in his heart?
Despite the heartache, he didn't want to sacrifice himself.
If he could, he could back down. Wasn't that person trying to kill someone?
He can give all these people to him, and even the people that the Spirit Hall will drive away in the future.
As long as he doesn't threaten his own life, that's fine.
As a soul beast, he could easily live for ten thousand years. If the newcomer was a soul master, he could outlast them. If the newcomer was a soul beast stronger than him, he would readily bow down in worship.
"How about we make a deal? Since you want this Killing City, I can share it with you. You could even rule Killing City."
"The King of Slaughter!" the King of Slaughter shouted.
At this moment, he had lost his usual domineering aura. How could he still be domineering when there were hardly any people left in the City of Slaughter?
Who are you trying to impress with your domineering attitude?
Unfortunately, Gu Xuan didn't want to pay him any attention. Compared to sharing a place with others, he felt it was better to stand on the peak alone.
"Come out, come out!"
Seeing that nothing he said would work, the King of Slaughter went somewhat mad, and the red light emanating from the Asura Demon Sword suddenly transformed into a light carrying destructive properties.
Boom boom boom!
Everything that came into contact with the red light was reduced to ruins, and the few fallen ones who managed to survive also perished under its rays.
The red light passed through Gu Xuan's body, but under the power of the snake talisman, it couldn't even touch the hem of his clothes.
"Perfect, you even cleaned up my territory."
Gu Xuan nodded in satisfaction upon seeing this, preparing to let the King of Slaughter live to the end before dealing with him later.
"No, no, I can't die yet!"
The King of Slaughter panicked the moment he saw that even the divine artifacts were ineffective.
He is not Tang Chen, and the only thing he can rely on is the Asura Demon Sword. Now that even the Asura Demon Sword is ineffective, the person who came must be even more terrifying than Tang Chen!
If he stays, he'll end up like those filthy humans. He can't die yet!
Immediately, the King of Slaughter headed straight for the dueling arena; he wanted to escape this hellish place!
