Douluo: Yu Hao Pan Tang San

Chapter 402, Section 421: Tang San Enters the Asura Temple
Deep within the City of Slaughter lies a secret space, the Temple of Asura, where the divine trials of the Asura God reside.

The City of Slaughter is the place where the Asura God takes his divine test. Logically speaking, those who obtain the God of Slaughter Domain through this place should be qualified to begin the divine test. However, throughout history, very few have been able to find the Asura God Temple.

Tang Chen from the previous timeline is one example. Therefore, the idea that obtaining the Killing God Domain will grant you the Asura God's Trial is entirely wishful thinking. The Killing God Domain only makes the Asura God take notice of you. Whether the Asura God is truly willing to pass it on depends on the Asura God's own willingness.

On a long bridge leading to the Temple of Asura, a dark-skinned, short-limbed figure walked across the bridge. The bridge swayed and wobbled, and beneath it was boiling, viscous, and scalding blood. The surrounding space was a strange, dark red.

The dark-skinned figure was swinging his long arms, looking at the magnificent hall ahead, his face showing a determined expression.

His name is Tang San, and he has been in the City of Slaughter for five years.

As for Tang San, he not only mastered the secret technique of the Clear Sky Hammer, but also became proficient in the Tang Sect's secret arts, such as the Mysterious Heaven Skill and the Mysterious Jade Hand. He also had a series of hidden weapons at his disposal, as well as experience from his previous life. The difficulty of the Slaughter City was already easy for him.

Within five years, Tang San achieved a 100-win streak in the Hell Arena, traversed the Hell Road, and obtained the Killing God Domain. Tang San could have accomplished this in three years, but the rules of the Slaughter City changed for some reason, lengthening the Hell Arena's cycle and deliberately hindering him, thus delaying the process to five years later.

However, even though it was a bit late, Tang San successfully obtained the reward of the God of Slaughter Domain.

After obtaining the Killing God Domain, Tang San immediately set off towards the Asura Temple according to his memories.

Ahead lies the Temple of Asura, and behind lies the City of Slaughter.

As Tang San entered the Asura Temple, he looked back at the City of Slaughter and recalled his past life.

The City of Slaughter was a place of divine testing set up by the God of Asura, but due to its characteristics, it has over time become a haven for the evils of the continent.

In his previous life, after completing the trials in the City of Slaughter, he destroyed the City of Slaughter, adhering to the principle of "once I'm on the bus, I'll weld the door shut and never allow anyone else to obtain the God of Slaughter Domain in the same way."

It wasn't until later that he realized that the Slaughter Ground was the testing ground of the Asura God. However, it was too late for Tang San at that time; he was already a member of the Sea God. Fortunately, the Asura God opened a door of convenience for him, allowing him to coexist with two gods and possess the position of the Asura God.

In this life, Tang San also fell into thought about how to deal with the City of Slaughter. First of all, he was not capable of destroying the City of Slaughter at the moment because he did not have the Crimson Swan Kiss.

But this killing capital will eventually have to be destroyed!
First, having become the God of Asura, he would never relinquish his position. Even if he grew tired of the God Realm in the future, he would pass it on to the Tang family, never allowing outsiders to seize it. He had no intention of bestowing the God of Slaughter Domain upon outsiders, therefore the City of Slaughter had no reason to exist. Second, due to its characteristics, the City of Slaughter became a refuge for the entire Douluo Continent. Furthermore, the Spirit Hall's Angel Soul Masters possessed a strong ability to restrain Evil Soul Masters, leading to a prolonged period of peace on the Douluo Continent during this era.

How can we function without evil spirit masters? Only when evil spirit masters emerge and wreak havoc on the world can my forces, such as Shrek Academy, Clear Sky Sect, and Tang Sect, which remain on the continent, come out to save people from suffering and spread my faith.

Our little scoundrel has his own unique insights into how to harvest faith. With his own methods, he has been able to firmly control the faith of the Douluo Continent for 20,000 years. He genuinely despises the way the Angel God harvests faith.

Back then, the Angel God suppressed the chaos of evil soul masters and became a god through faith. The Spirit Hall, the power he left behind, also revered the will of the Angel God generation after generation, suppressing the chaos of evil soul masters and ensuring that there were basically no evil soul master disturbances in this era. It also allowed the entire continent to discover the buried soul master talents.

However, tens of thousands of years have passed, and how much faith in the angel god remains among the people? Not much, otherwise, how could the two great empires have mobilized a million troops in that future war?
In comparison, the Sea God's methods were much more sophisticated. He left behind evil soul beasts such as the Demon Orca and the Deep Sea Demon Whale (Tang San believed) to create tsunamis and shipwrecks from time to time, using natural disasters to keep sea soul masters on the brink of life and death. Then, he would have Poseidon and other followers of the Sea God rescue them from time to time, while also spreading his faith. Tens of thousands of years have passed, and the faith of the sea soul masters is now more devout than ever before.

Humans are insatiable creatures. If you only give them benefits, they will be grateful to you at first, but over time, they will take it for granted, want more, and eventually question why you won't give them anything! The Spirit Hall is very good to civilians, but so what? In that war, didn't the Heaven Dou Star Luo still mobilize a million troops to wipe out the Spirit Hall?

So, how do you make mainlanders remember your kindness forever? It's simple: use both the whip and the candy, and be firm on both sides. Whip them to make them feel pain, then give them a piece of candy. After experiencing the pain, they will be grateful to you. Then whip them again and give them another piece of candy, and so on.

The evil spirit master is like the whip in Tang San's hand, while the Clear Sky Sect, Shrek Academy, Tang Sect, and so on are like Tang San's candy!
The evil spirit masters' evil fire cannot be extinguished; it springs up again with the spring breeze. Every so often, they emerge to wreak havoc on the continent, leaving the people in a constant state of half-death.

Then, when the evil soul masters had almost completely wiped out the continent, the Clear Sky Sect, Shrek Academy, and Tang Sect stepped forward to take responsibility for the continent and rescue the people from their suffering. Wouldn't that give them faith? The same principle can be applied to the invasion of the Abyss Plane more than 10,000 years later.

Therefore, there is no need for the City of Slaughter to exist. As long as he becomes a god, he will immediately seal off the City of Slaughter. Tang San made up his mind and unknowingly arrived at the entrance of the main hall of the Asura Temple.

The temple gate stood before Tang San, dozens of meters high, and the materials used to build it were extraordinary, making it difficult to push open.

Fortunately, Tang San knew what the key to open the door was. His eyes turned red, steam spewed from his nostrils, and a scarlet domain spread out from his body. Tang San was in the center of the domain. He swung his overly long arms to the sides, clenched his fists, pounded his chest, and let out a savage baboon cry.

The door seemed to sense Tang San's Killing God Domain, began to absorb its energy, and then slowly opened.
