Douluo Continent: From Seven Treasure Glazed Tile to Crescent Moon's Solemnity

Chapter 238 Raising a Big Flag

The girl in black veil did not drink the Bloody Mary that Ning Feiliu offered her, clearly knowing that the Bloody Mary contained poison.

She spoke directly, "Sword King, you have completed ninety-two Hell Slaughter Battles in less than a year. You only need eight more Hell Slaughter Battles to complete one hundred Hell Slaughter Battles."

"Yes." Ning Feiliu nodded and said, "That's actually why I came here."

"Oh? What do you mean?" Upon hearing his words, the girl in the black veil paused for a moment, but still pretended to remain calm as she asked.

Because... ordinary people, ordinary people who come to the Killing City should only be trying to escape the pursuit of powerful forces on the continent.

Almost no one knows the real reason why Killing City was founded.

That is the trial ground left by a god who transcends the world, in order for someone to inherit his divine position.

In fact, even Tang Hao and Bibi Dong, the two killing gods, should not know about this.

Bibi Dong may have learned about this later when she obtained the Rakshasa God's inheritance, but she probably didn't know it before entering the City of Slaughter.

It's estimated that the Spirit Hall only thought of this as a good place for training.

It's a place where one can hone terrifying skills and gain experience in deadly battles.

Ning Feiliu's words clearly conveyed this meaning.

He wasn't a fallen man being hunted by powerful forces; he came here to gain experience.

But as I said before, what could have led him to the City of Slaughter for training was something he couldn't have known on his own.

Then it's very likely that someone is behind him...

In this world, the only person who could send him to the City of Slaughter for training, knowing it to be a trial ground, is probably the God of Slaughter who once left the City of Slaughter.

The reason for the change in the girl's expression was precisely this.

What she was worried about was that Ning Feiliu had someone backing her, that those two people were involved.

Ning Feiliu smiled slightly, seeing that the fish had taken the bait, but he remained very patient.

Patience is the most important quality for a hunter.

Otherwise, if you lose your composure and are discovered by your prey, all your previous efforts will be in vain.

"My master, Tang Hao, sent me here to train. He said I have two years to pass the test of this City of Slaughter and then come out," Ning Feiliu said expressionlessly.

He's using Tang Dachui's name to scare people.

After all, if it can be avoided, then it should be avoided.

Although he had the Snow Empress protecting him, in this City of Slaughter, the land of the Asura God's inheritance, all beings are equal, and the King of Slaughter is the peerless Douluo Tang Chen, who should be stronger than the Snow Empress. In the end, he didn't have much of a chance of winning.

So when he saw the girl in the black veil, he decided to unfurl a large flag to scare the King of Slaughter.

In the original storyline of King of Slaughter... he was very afraid of Tang Hao and Bibi Dong, those two gods of slaughter.

After all, they once obtained the Killing God Domain, and one of the effects of the Killing God Domain is... when the Killing God Domain is activated, Soul Masters within the range of the Killing God Domain can use Soul Skills normally.

And as long as they unleash their Killing God Domain and lead a group of powerful individuals into the City of Slaughter.

Then the Killing City will indeed face a catastrophic disaster.

It's puzzling why the peerless Douluo, the King of Slaughter, would fear Tang Hao and Bibi Dong, two juniors who haven't yet reached the peak Douluo level.

This is a significant plot hole in the original storyline.

It can only be said that perhaps after Tang Chen was parasitized by the Crimson Nine-Headed Bat King, he not only forgot that he was once the first sect master of the Haotian Sect, but also forgot how powerful he was.

Perhaps Tang Chen didn't want the City of Slaughter to be destroyed, because it was the place where the Asura God inherited his position, and if it was destroyed, he wouldn't be able to inherit the godhood.

In short, the King of Slaughter is very afraid of Tang Hao and Bibi Dong.

Even though his cultivation level was far higher than Tang Hao and Bibi Dong's.

"Tang Hao?" The girl in black veil frowned, because people in the City of Slaughter were always identified by their numbers.

Here, no one will reveal their real name.

However, the numbering system is indeed difficult to remember, so all the powerful figures in the Killing City who have made a name for themselves have their own nicknames.

Take Ning Feiliu for example. No one here knows his real name, even though his number 7777 is quite easy to remember.

But people still prefer to call him by his nickname, Sword King.

So when Ning Feiliu directly mentioned Tang Hao's name, the girl in the black veil didn't react for a moment.

But soon...

"Hao?" Upon hearing this word, the girl in black veil thought to herself, "Could it be the Jade Emperor?"

In the City of Slaughter, powerful figures are often addressed as "King," and Tang Hao's title during his years of adventures and training in the City of Slaughter was naturally "King Haotian."

The girl in the black veil was mistakenly led astray to think of Tang Hao.

Ning Feiliu hadn't actually thought of this at first, but even if he had, there was nothing he could do.

It's impossible that he would try to guess Tang Hao's number and title back in the City of Slaughter, right?

Fortunately, the girl in the black veil heard Tang Hao's name and made the connection.

This was a lucky break, something he could be thankful for.

As for why he chose to rally around Tang Hao's banner instead of Bibi Dong's.

can only say……

He actually suspected that the girl in the black veil in front of him had some connection with Bibi Dong.

After all... Bibi Dong's Rakshasa God lineage has a somewhat unclear origin.

First of all, it's unlikely that it was obtained from the Spirit Hall, since the Rakshasa God and the Spirit Hall's Angel God are mortal enemies.

The first test of the Rakshasa God's divine trial was to devour a Soul Master with a Six-Winged Angel Martial Soul. The Spirit Hall and the Angel Clan would absolutely not tolerate the Rakshasa God's inheritance.

Of course, it's also possible that the Rakshasa God's inheritance was initially something like the Vast Ocean Universe Cover, which the Spirit Hall people didn't know about and which just sat unused in their treasure vault until Bibi Dong accidentally triggered this inheritance medium.

This is not impossible.

However, Ning Feiliu was even more suspicious that Bibi Dong had come to the City of Slaughter to obtain the Rakshasa God's inheritance.

Firstly, the presence of the Rakshasa God's divine thought in the City of Slaughter has even corrupted and clouded Tang Chen's mind.

But the key is that the Killing Capital is the territory of the Asura God, and the Asura Demon Sword is still there. Can the Rakshasa God corrupt this place without getting serious?

Therefore... it is very likely that the Rakshasa God's lineage originally existed in the City of Slaughter, and that it was only by using divine artifacts to fight against divine artifacts that this place was corrupted.

However, the first Rakshasa God is clearly gone, so the one who could guide and pass on the legacy to Bibi Dong was able to use the Rakshasa God's inherited artifact to fight against the Asura Demon Sword, and even successfully parasitized and corrupted the City of Slaughter and Tang Chen in the end.

That would require a powerful Rakshasa priest to accomplish these things.

The prime suspect is none other than the mysterious girl in black veils who, in the original storyline, had an overly close relationship with the King of Slaughter and was second only to him in the City of Slaughter.

If that's the case, then she and Bibi Dong are connected.

Ning Feiliu is using Bibi Dong's name as a front; isn't that likely to expose his deception?

After all, who knows if the girl in the black veil might actually be able to contact Bibi Dong?

That's why he chose Tang Dachuizi.

The girl in the black veil was clearly taken aback.

"I see. So, do you know what happens after a hundred hellish killing battles?" The girl in black veil took a deep breath and asked tentatively.

Because the path to hell is known only to the god of death who once passed through it.

If Ning Feiliu really was a student of one of the Gods of Slaughter, he should know that.

"Break through the Hell Road? They say there are monsters there that are far more powerful than Soul Masters," Ning Feiliu said, taking another sip of Bloody Mary.

Upon hearing this, the girl in the black veil, who had initially maintained a skeptical attitude, immediately changed her expression.

Even though she still has some doubts, she now believes at least 80% of it.

The remaining 20% ​​is because Tang Hao didn't show up here to acknowledge this in person.

"The Road to Hell is a place where you're almost guaranteed to die," the girl in black veil said. "Anyway, you came here to train, and now that you're almost there, why take any more risks?"

"Furthermore, the King once said that if you wish, you can be granted the title of 'God of Slaughter' without having to go through the Path of Hell, and you will become a guest retainer of the City of Slaughter, with free access to the City of Slaughter!"

However, Ning Feiliu smiled calmly and said, "No need, because... my teacher once said that obtaining that extremely precious domain skill by passing through the Hell Road... is my biggest goal for this trip."

Hearing this, the girl in the black veil finally believed him almost completely.

Even the God of Slaughter Domain knows about this. If he weren't Tang Hao's student, how would he know about this?

"Then... I'll go back and report to the King. But, Your Majesty Sword King, I have a piece of advice for you..." The girl in black veil gave him a deep look and said, "The Road to Hell is far more terrifying than the Hell Slaughter Field. It... is the real hell."

"Now that things have come to this, do you think I would be afraid?" Ning Feiliu said calmly.

Seeing this, the girl in black veil said nothing more and immediately turned and left.

Ning Feiliu also seemed to have lost interest, refusing to drink the remaining Bloody Mary and leaving the tavern directly.

Outside the tavern, the burly, varied-looking Fallen Ones turned pale with fright when they saw Ning Feiliu emerge.

They all retreated.

Even some of the most alluring female fallen ones retreated, their faces turning ashen.

But... she might be a fallen woman who just arrived here and hasn't heard of Ning Feiliu's name?

When they saw Ning Feiliu, with his young and handsome appearance, their faces lit up with joy, and they swayed their hips as they walked up to him, wanting to invite him to spend the night together.

However, the next moment...

"Rip—"

Ning Feiliu didn't say anything superfluous. She directly summoned the Crescent Moon King Sword, and the sword light flashed rapidly, tearing their alluring bodies to shreds.

Several beautiful bodies were thus dismembered and pieced together.

However, they will soon be sharing the pieces among themselves.

After Ning Feiliu's swift and decisive action, no one dared to step forward anymore.

Ning Feiliu was even afraid of getting even a little closer.

Fearing that Ning Feiliu might think they were too close, he casually killed them.

A road wider than a sidewalk immediately appeared before him, and he used it to return to his residence.

……

After returning to his home where he lives alone.

"Xue Di, is anyone nearby?"

"no."

After confirming that no one was nearby, Ning Feiliu took out a large flower from the Iron Sun Box.

Each petal of this large flower looks as clear and translucent as crystal, and the stamens are pale purple, like purple diamonds set there.

It is a fragrant and exquisite herb, a divine medicinal herb that can counteract all poisons and dispel toxins in the air.

Not only that, Ning Feiliu also took out another pill, which was a drug specifically designed to resist blood toxins.

He swallowed it directly, which blocked the toxins in the Bloody Mary he had just drunk.

He then took out the stored fresh water from the Iron Sun Box and drank it along with his dry rations.

In this killing city, he didn't trust any of the food or water resources.

Or rather, he doesn't believe in anything here.

He had to be careful; after all, this wasn't a game where you could revive after dying.

He's really dead, no matter what the reason for his death.

Therefore, Ning Feiliu was always on high alert, but he didn't feel like Tang San in the original work.

To be honest, Tang San, as a disciple of the Tang Clan in his previous life, must have killed quite a few people.

Moreover, in his previous life, he stole the Tang Clan's secret techniques and faced the Tang Clan's constant searches every day. Especially with a guilty conscience, his level of mental tension should be comparable to that in the Killing City.

However, his behavior before and after leaving the City of Slaughter was so different that he acted like an innocent young boy.

That's a bit unreasonable.

In any case, Ning Feiliu is not like Tang San. Although his mind is tense, he can recover to normal without going to Yuexuan after he goes out.

It's not like we're in a terrible situation just because we spent a year in the killing city.

In his previous life, he killed far more people and monsters in the game than this number combined.

Although there's a saying that games and reality are quite different.

But Ning Feiliu probably didn't make that distinction; he felt that the people he killed in the Slaughter City were no different from the NPCs and monsters he killed in the game.

I didn't feel much.

Instead, it gave me the same excitement as playing video games.

However, he was also very cautious.

After dealing with food and hydration, Ning Feiliu remembered what had just happened.

"Hopefully, this will intimidate the King of Slaughter," he muttered.

This way, Xue Di wouldn't need to intervene anymore, making it more likely that he could safely complete his mission and leave the City of Slaughter.

Actually... he had no particular thoughts about the City of Slaughter, Tang Chen, or the Asura God inheritance within him.

He would never destroy Arkham Asylum in Douluo Continent like Tang San did.

These vicious and depraved individuals would only cause trouble if released; it's best for them to remain here, locked in endless slaughter, constantly wearing each other down.

"When... can we get out?" Xue Di asked, unable to contain herself any longer.

She was actually quite bored here because Ning Feiliu, out of caution, had only allowed her to come out a few times.

So even Xue Di was getting a little impatient.

"It'll be soon. There are still eight battles left, so it should be about a month," Ning Feiliu reassured her.

"Almost there...almost there..."
