Douluo Continent: From Internal Martial Arts to the Law of Heaven and Earth

She wanted to survive, to become strong. She wanted to become a retainer of the Spirit Hall and restore her teacher's freedom.

……

hum!

A brilliant blue light surged around me, and a vibrant life force continuously flowed into my body, nourishing my entire being.

His black hair quietly turned azure, and the Blue Silver Grass automatically appeared in his hand. A dark soul ring enveloped the Blue Silver Grass, and a huge amount of soul power surged through his meridians.

Tiny golden veins quietly emerge, spreading upwards from the rootstock and eventually covering all the leaves.

With the sacrifice of the Blue Silver King, Tang San's soul power level increased rapidly, quickly reaching level 50, a quasi-Soul King. After absorbing the ten-thousand-year soul ring and shattering his bottleneck, his soul power level finally stabilized at level 51.

After nearly a week of deep meditation, Tang San's soul power became increasingly refined. When he emerged from deep meditation, a faint purple light flashed in his eyes.

Purple Demon Eye, reaching the level of subtlety.

Without the aid of the "Looking Through Autumn Water Dew," Tang San's progress in eye-training techniques was not rapid. With the help of the second awakening of the Blue Silver Grass, he barely broke through to the Microscopic Realm, and his spiritual power was not particularly strong, having only just broken through to the Spirit Sea Realm.

"Father, I've broken through to Soul King!" Tang San exclaimed happily as he opened his eyes and saw Tang Hao standing like a statue.

Looking at that vaguely familiar face, Tang Hao was momentarily dazed. After regaining his senses, his expression hardened again. "Not bad. What is the fifth soul ring skill?"

Inquiring about the effects of soul skills is a major taboo for soul masters. If someone else asked, Tang San would definitely not tell them, and might even suspect that the other party had ulterior motives towards him, or that he should nip the other party in the bud.

But if the person you're asking is Tang Hao, then it's a completely different story. He's Tang San's beloved father, how could he possibly harm him?

Chapter 492 Entering the City

"Father, my fifth soul skill is the Blue Silver Overlord Spear, which has extremely strong destructive power." Tang San told Tang Hao about the specific effects of the soul skill without hiding anything.

Tang Hao simply nodded without offering any comment. "Let's go. It's time for you to head to your new training ground."

Tang San was a little curious, but seeing that Tang Hao didn't seem inclined to explain, he gave up the idea of ​​asking.

The two traveled day and night without stopping, and arrived at their destination in just one week.

The same tavern, the same villains, but not the same one Tangshan had entered before.

The entrances to the Slaughter City are scattered throughout the continent and are not unique; only the Spirit Hall probably knows exactly how many there are.

"Two Bloody Marys, please," Tang Hao said in a deep voice as he approached the bartender.

The bartender was somewhat surprised. He looked up at Tang Hao and Tang San beside him, and silently poured two cups of "wine" from the barrel next to him.

Tang Hao picked up a cup, took a small sip, and looked at Tang San, "Drink it."

Tang San picked up the wine cup, and a bloody smell wafted towards him. He hesitated for a moment, then gritted his teeth and poured all the viscous "wine" into his mouth.

"Kill everyone here." As Tang Hao's cold voice fell, an immense pressure emanated from him. The other patrons in the tavern had no time to react before their figures were frozen in place, unable to move an inch.

"Alright." Tang San decisively obeyed his father's instructions. The Blue Silver Grass bloomed instantly, its sharp tip piercing through the vital parts of the other drinkers, reaping their lives.

At this point, apart from the father and son, there were no other survivors in the tavern; blood flowed, and the silence was terrifying.

"There is an entrance to the City of Slaughter here. The City of Slaughter is a special training ground where soul skills cannot be used. Leaving the City of Slaughter will grant you a special domain that amplifies your abilities and suppresses your opponents," Tang Hao stated calmly. After Tang San understood the general information, he pointed to the wooden board in front of the wine cabinet. "Go. This is the final test. Only by emerging from the mountains of corpses and seas of blood in the City of Slaughter can you become a true powerhouse."

……

Descending the stairs, one soon comes to a slope, but strangely, this slope does not go down but ascends, quickly rising above the outside horizon.

"Teacher, is something wrong?" Zhu Zhuyun followed behind Tang Shan, slowly climbing the slope, and couldn't help but feel puzzled.

"The City of Slaughter is not on the Douluo Continent. To be precise, it is a different space from the Douluo Continent. As for the tavern we came into earlier, it is the intersection of the two spaces." The concept of a plane or world is not easy to understand, so Tang Shan simply changed to a more understandable term.

There were no stars in the sky, only a blood moon hanging eternally in the heavens. Its crimson light naturally shone down, and people's minds were easily agitated by it.

Clang!

A faint, crisp metallic clanging sound rang out, and Tang Shan raised an eyebrow and stopped walking.

Before long, a group of soldiers dressed in black armor descended from the top of the slope, their faces obscured by heavy armor.

The leader of the group rode a tall horse, his huge lance gleaming coldly in the blood-red moonlight.

“I am the Enforcement Knight Kru. You have violated the rules of the City of Slaughter. If you wish to enter the city, you must defeat me.” His voice was hoarse and dry, as if he had not spoken for a long time.

His blood-red eyes swept over Qian Renxue and Zhu Zhuyun behind Tang Shan. "As for them, they need to defeat my men to gain entry into the city."

"Okay." Tang Shan nodded calmly, took a light step, and shot out. Almost instantly, he arrived in front of the law enforcement knight, Klu.

call!

He twisted his lance, his body arched backward, the lance forming a huge bend, its sharp tip pointing towards Tangshan's throat.

Whoosh!

With a contraction of his right arm muscles, he lunged forward and grabbed the lance, ignoring the dense barbs on it, and Tang Shan stomped his foot hard on the ground.

boom!

Tang Shan, carrying a lance and with Klu holding it tightly, pushed him off the back of his warhorse.

With a sudden stomp of his foot on the horse's back, ignoring the horse's neighing, he unleashed even more power, launching Kru into the air. He then shoved him high into the air with a flick of his wrist.

His body spun in mid-air, his thigh carrying the powerful energy accumulated from inertia, and kicked the sharp tip of the spear.

The power of the Bauhinia had somehow enveloped the soles of Tang Shan's feet, preventing the lance from piercing his shoes. Meanwhile, the brute force surged along the lance towards the law enforcement knight, Klu.

Finally, Klugh, who was gripping the lance tightly, could no longer withstand the immense force of the lance, and his hand involuntarily loosened.

The next moment, the lance, carrying its remaining force, slammed solidly into the center of Kru's chest.

Click!

The sound of the breastplate and bones breaking rang out simultaneously. Kru spat out a mouthful of blood onto his mask, his body crashing to the ground. It took him a long time to get up.

Looking at Tang Shan, who had landed safely, his face flushed and not out of breath, he remained silent for a moment before speaking softly, "You won."

Things changed so fast that before the group of law enforcement soldiers could even see what was happening, they saw their leader cough up blood and collapse to the ground.

Tangshan's internal martial arts are still too advanced. They combine concentrated power with combat skills, launching continuous attacks and relentlessly pursuing the opponent. Once the opponent falls into their own rhythm and the distance is closed, it is difficult for the opponent to have a chance to counterattack.

The ensuing battle between Qian Renxue and Zhu Zhuyun was a foregone conclusion. Although it wasn't as decisive as Tang Shan's, it was still over in about five minutes.

"Welcome to the City of Slaughter. This is your token, number 404. These are your tokens, numbers 1086 and 1296."

A woman with a slender figure and a black veil appeared in the blink of an eye, looking at the handsome Tang Shan with a strange light in her eyes.

Tang Shan raised his hand and took the token, and the masked envoy turned to look at Zhu Zhuyun and Qian Renxue.

The two women also accepted the tokens. The masked woman turned around and led the way, while calmly introducing herself: "I am the messenger of hell, and also your guide. I am specifically responsible for explaining the general situation of the City of Slaughter to you."

The Killing City is divided into an inner city and an outer city. Fighting and killing are not allowed in the outer city. To survive in the outer city, one must pay two Bloody Marys every month, which is human blood.

As for the inner city, the conditions for moving in are simple: participate in a hellish killing arena duel. Beyond that, there are no restrictions. You can do whatever you want inside, as long as you have the strength to survive.

In just a few words, a bloody world is revealed, with seemingly simple rules that are full of traps.

The outer city forbids fighting, yet survival requires two Bloody Marys. So you either use your own blood or risk venturing into the inner city to obtain it from others, but the inner city is a lawless hell. In other words, in this killing capital, you either choose slow suicide or fight to the death.

"The inner city is an absolute, lawless hell, devoid of any mercy, and no one cares about your outside identity," the Hell Messenger said meaningfully, glancing at Qian Renxue and Zhu Zhuyun.

"Thank you for the reminder. I believe in our strength, and it won't be difficult for us to survive here," Tangshan replied politely.

"Oh." The Hell Messenger remained noncommittal, looking Tang Shan up and down. Seeing his resolute yet handsome appearance, her eyebrows curved slightly. "Would you like to learn more about the City of Slaughter and its unique features?" She deliberately emphasized the words "learn more" and "unique features," and her lithe body slowly leaned towards Tang Shan.

"No need. Are there any other precautions?" Qian Renxue reached out and grabbed the frivolous Hell Messenger, asking with a forced smile. Holy flames burned continuously in her golden eyes: I haven't even eaten it, and you still want to eat it? What are you dreaming about?

Zhu Zhuyun remained silent, but a cold glint flashed in her eyes, and sharp claws gleamed faintly at her fingertips.

"Alright then." The messenger of hell sighed regretfully and fell silent again as the group gradually approached the distant giant city.

The city walls were dozens of meters high, and the city gates were wide open without any guards. The dim moonlight could not illuminate the specific scene inside the killing city, and the shadows inside the city seemed to be dancing wildly like demons.

The moment they entered the city, an inexplicable constraint descended, freezing their soul skills completely, rendering them unusable.

"Alright, we'll part ways here. I hope you have a pleasant life in the City of Slaughter." The Hell Messenger raised his hand in farewell, then moved gracefully and quickly disappeared into the dim city.

Tang Shan stopped and looked back at the road he had come from. On the distant hillside, a dark figure was staring back at him.

"What's wrong?" Zhu Zhuyun asked, puzzled. She turned to look as well, but the night was pitch black, and the environment of the Killing City was so unique that she couldn't spot the shadowy figure on the hillside.

"It's nothing." Tang Shan turned his head and walked straight into the city where sin and desire intertwined. Qian Renxue and Zhu Zhuyun exchanged a glance and followed closely behind him.

"Captain, what are you looking at?" one of the law enforcement soldiers asked, puzzled as to why Captain Kru had been standing there for so long.

"I'm watching the next god of death." Kru's voice was weak, but his eyes were exceptionally bright.

"How is that possible! Becoming a god of death is incredibly difficult, what makes that person so special?" The soldier, who understood the deeper meaning of his captain's words, was filled with disbelief. He admitted that the person was strong, but to say that the other party had the potential to become a god of death was simply too exaggerated.

“It’s my gut feeling.” Kru didn’t explain further, quickly regrouped the team, and led them to continue patrolling the outskirts of the Killing City.

"Is your intuition really reliable?" the soldier thought to himself, unconsciously looking again at the giant city hidden in the darkness, but he could no longer find the three unique figures.

As soon as the group entered the Killing City, Tang Shan, Qian Renxue, and Zhu Zhuyun witnessed firsthand the twisted atmosphere here. In the dark corners at the edge of the city wall, several naked figures were entangled in a wanton manner, and strange noises kept coming from the chaotic crowd, showing no shame whatsoever.

Explosive, absolutely explosive!

Even though Qian Renxue was the young master of the Spirit Hall, and Zhu Zhuyun was once the imperial concubine of the Star Luo Empire and is now the crown princess of the Heaven Dou Empire, they had never seen such an absurd and outrageous scene.

Chapter 493 The Test of Lust

Qian Renxue and Zhu Zhuyun's faces instantly turned red, whether from anger or embarrassment was hard to tell.

It's not that they're short-sighted; it's just that what they witnessed was too shocking to accept. To perform "harmony of life" in public was simply beyond what normal people could comprehend.

The two women here were suffering a blow to their minds from the City of Slaughter, while the group of madmen in the City of Slaughter also noticed Tang Shan and his two companions who were out of place in the City of Slaughter.

Qian Renxue and Zhu Zhuyun, in particular, became the center of trouble almost instantly. If it weren't for the restrictions imposed by the outer city rules, people would have pounced on them long ago. Even so, burning gazes roamed over them without restraint, and people unconsciously moved closer to the three of them.

"Get out!" A cold shout exploded in the sea of ​​consciousness. A terrifying will, as if it were to create the world and reshape the universe, suddenly erupted from Tang Shan. The group of restless madmen swayed and staggered backward, their faces filled with fear and terror.

Tangshan isn't the main character, so there's no time to wait for trouble to come knocking before showing off and getting slapped in the face. If you have the strength, you have to show it off and eliminate those who are blind or brainless beforehand.

At this moment, Qian Renxue and Zhu Zhuyun finally snapped out of their daze at the "unique features" of the Killing City. Their faces darkened, and their terrifying aura spread out unrestrainedly. Unfortunately, this had no deterrent effect whatsoever. From beginning to end, the madmen's eyes were fixed on Tang Shan.

"Let's go. Let's find a place to stay in the outer city for today, and then we'll go check out the Hell Slaughter Arena tomorrow." Tang Shan waved his hand, ignoring the gazes that were filled with fear, greed, resentment, or jealousy. Even if these people disregarded the rules and attacked together, Tang Shan could kill them instantly.

While the City of Slaughter does not allow the use of soul skills, Tang Shan's spiritual power, comparable to that of a Limit Douluo, is undeniable. Not everyone is like the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm, possessing vast spiritual power that is not known for its usage.

Even without the protection of an indestructible internal martial art, Tang Shan's mental strength, comparable to that of a Limit Douluo in the Douluo III era, made him invincible in the City of Slaughter, except for the King of Slaughter, of course.

Walking along the dirty and chaotic streets, Tang Shan spread his mental energy, carefully exploring the situation in each room, and soon he found his target.

Turning into a small alley, there were only two rooms at the very end of the alley, next to each other.

"Your Highness, Zhuyun, these two rooms are empty, but they're a bit dirty. Let's stay here tonight and go check out the inner city tomorrow," Tang Shan said to the two women beside him.
