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

Chapter 239 The Road to Hell Appears

The City of Slaughter, a dark and spacious room.

It was an exceptionally large chair, inlaid with blue and purple crystals.

These crystals are outlined in the shape of a drum tower.

Apart from this chair, everything here is dark red.

The girl in black veil returned and knelt on one knee before the King of Slaughter, who was sitting in a chair.

"How was it? What did he say?" the King of Slaughter asked.

"King... Sword King seems to be a student of that Haotian King. He refused our invitation," the girl in black veil said immediately.

"What? That student of the Heavenly King? Is this true?!" The King of Slaughter's blood-red pupils shrank to needles as he spoke.

The girl in black veil took a deep breath and then said, "He knows about the Hell Road after the Hundred Hell Slaughter Battles, and he even knows about the Domain. It's probably true..."

As mentioned before, knowing about the Path to Hell might be considered unremarkable, but knowing about the Domain...

If it weren't for the God of Slaughter who had once left the City of Slaughter informing her, how would Ning Feiliu have known?

They had no idea that time travelers existed in this world.

In the world of the transmigrators, they can also see novels created with their world as the background.

Ning Feiliu must have a thorough understanding of many of the world's settings and major events, if not an absolute mastery of them.

Therefore, the greatest advantage of time travelers always lies in their information resources.

If you get a little bit of a cheat code, or have a good background or talent, then that's a perfect start.

If someone has all three of these qualities—a transmigrator, a cheat code, and a prestigious lineage from a powerful faction—and is also a chosen successor of some major power…

That was basically an invincible start.

Ning Feiliu's only slight disadvantage was when he first transmigrated; his original talent was extremely poor, and he was not favored.

But now he naturally doesn't have this weakness, and can be said to have evolved into an invincible version of a novel protagonist.

The King of Slaughter fell silent upon hearing the words of the girl in the black veil.

"Well, the City of Slaughter can't withstand the wrath of any god of slaughter, so let him be," he sighed and said.

Although having one more god of death increases the risk of future destruction for the City of Slaughter, it is only a possibility.

However, if Ning Feiliu were to remain here and "Tang Hao" were to come to their door, it would be certain that they would offend a god of death.

Ning Feiliu's act of raising a banner, coupled with his advantage as a time traveler, allowed him to successfully use that banner to intimidate others.

This just happens to make the King of Slaughter completely believe Ning Feiliu now.

……

A month later.

Hellish Slaughter Field.

"Crescent Moon... Heart Sword!"

Ning Feiliu's dreamlike voice came from the center of the hellish killing field. The next moment, the Crescent Moon King Sword, which had blocked the fatal blows of three fallen ones, tore their bodies apart.

However, the man, feared by many fallen beings in the City of Slaughter and known as the Sword King, was still uneasy.

He shattered the heads of the three fallen ones with his pale gold greatsword before stopping.

The...100th Hellish Slaughter Battle!

It lasted eight months and thirteen days.

Ning Feiliu has finally completed the preliminary part of this series of quests. All that's left is to go through the Road to Hell.

And by now, he must have already made a great name for himself and left his legend in the City of Slaughter.

So... the Dark Harvest rune is right in front of you!

Thinking of this, his breathing became somewhat rapid.

The cornerstone runes that will destroy the world!

What kind of power would that be?

It will definitely take his current strength to the next level!

Power! In this world, power is eternal!

From the moment Ning Feiliu obtained the Crescent Moon Divine Weapon, she experienced the wonderful feeling of possessing power.

He also became addicted to the wonderful feeling of having power, and he wanted to keep getting stronger and more satisfied until he reached the top of the world's strongest throne.

Even... another world, yet another world!

Even if it's a thousand worlds or ten thousand worlds, he will keep getting stronger!

At this moment, the Fallen Ones, seeing that Ning Feiliu had truly achieved a hundred consecutive victories in the Hell Slaughter Battle, all cheered for his title.

"Sword King! Sword King!"

"Sword King! Sword King!"

"Sword King! Sword King!"

……

In this sinful place, power is everything!

Moreover, the Fallen are even more aware of this, for they are all believers in power!

Only those with power can do whatever they want in the City of Slaughter.

Therefore, they admire the strong even more than the Soul Masters outside of Douluo Continent!

But at that moment

"Congratulations, young Sword King..." A deep, sharp voice suddenly came from all directions.

The aura and killing intent that Ning Feiliu had gained from the recent killing were suppressed the moment that voice rang out.

The atmosphere inside the hellish killing field instantly reached its peak, because a blood-red figure was descending from the sky.

"King of Slaughter, King of Slaughter, King of Slaughter..." The shouts made the Fallen Ones hoarse, but they showed no sign of stopping.

Ning Feiliu immediately looked toward the scarlet figure in mid-air.

It was a tall man, his entire body wrapped in a huge scarlet cloak.

With a pale face and completely blood-red eyes, its body slowly descended from the air, seemingly unaffected by gravity.

The King of Slaughter, whose real name is Tang Chen, is one of the three peerless Douluo. His strength is currently at level 99 peerless Douluo, and it should be confirmed that he has already stepped into the ranks of demigods.

It's even possible that... it could even be a pseudo-god.

He also possesses the Shura God's inherited divine artifact—the Shura Demon Sword.

Although given Tang Chen's current situation, he may not be able to unleash the full power of this super artifact.

But even if he can't unleash much power by using this super artifact, he should still be the strongest in the Douluo Continent era.

The other two peerless Douluo—Qian Daoliu and Bo Saixi—would probably be no match for them even if they used the divine power of their respective gods.

Unless Poseidon is in the ocean and directly uses her outrageous ninth soul skill—summoning the sea god.

The King of Slaughter didn't pay much attention when he saw Ning Feiliu looking at him. His gaze fell on the viewing platform of the Hell Slaughter Arena.

"I am delighted to witness the birth of a killing machine today. The unprecedented victory, which has not been seen for decades, has finally been achieved by this Sword King."

He makes you tremble with his overwhelming strength and terrifying killing intent, doesn't he? My people.

"Yes—, yes—, yes—" The King of Slaughter seemed to possess a unique charisma that caused all the fallen to develop an almost fanatical worship upon seeing him.

Ning Feiliu could still smell the sweet, bloody scent on him, unsure whether it came from him or from the blood-red nine-headed bat king that had parasitized him.

In short, his bloody scent can manipulate the toxins in the air, food, and blood of the fallen in the Killing City.

Ning Feiliu also acted slightly, like the other fallen ones, with a hint of fanaticism in her eyes.

But he quickly pretended to calm down and looked at the King of Slaughter with apprehension.

The King of Slaughter took in his change of expression, then smiled slightly and transmitted his voice, saying, "Young Sword King, there's no need to worry. The effects you suffered in the City of Slaughter will soon disappear after you leave."

That's absolutely right. This blood toxin is a chronic toxin. As long as it doesn't accumulate over time like the Snow Night Emperor's, the chronic toxin will be gradually metabolized by the body over time.

"Thank you for your guidance, senior." Ning Feiliu still looked quite wary and said in a low voice.

The King of Slaughter said nothing more, and he didn't even mention trying to win over Ning Feiliu again.

Then the next moment...

A thick red mist suddenly emanated from the King of Slaughter, and the immense aura caused Ning Feiliu to unconsciously grip the Crescent Moon King Sword to protect herself.

But... he had actually anticipated this.

He even explained to the Snow Empress beforehand that he would only summon her if the King of Slaughter attacked him directly.

Otherwise, do not take any action.

At this moment, Xue Di was following Ning Feiliu's orders and did not make a move.

Therefore, Ning Feiliu was the only one who could withstand the powerful aura of the King of Slaughter.

The King of Slaughter did not exude murderous intent, but rather an aura of extreme evil, a chilling cold that could freeze one's very bones.

The evil, cold red ripples slowly spread out, and in the blink of an eye, they had already spread throughout the entire area.

The Fallen Ones sitting in the audience were all unusually excited; they all hoped to see Hell open.

However, they did not know that their lives had come to an end.

Apart from the God of Slaughter and the King of Slaughter, no one has ever seen the opening of Hell, because all those who have seen it are dead.

Or rather, they all became sacrifices for the opening of hell.

The red light spread out, enveloping the fallen ones in the audience.

At this moment, the Fallen Ones, who had been cheering wildly, gradually quieted down as the red light descended onto the viewing platform. The eyes of each Fallen One gradually became dull, and then turned from dull to bloodshot red.

Before long, as the red light formed a huge barrier across the entire hellish killing field, agonizing screams began to emanate from those who were the first to come into contact with the red light.

Influenced by the red light, the fallen seemed to have gone mad, frantically scratching their faces and bodies...

Most of the Fallen Ones who survived in the inner city were quite powerful. At this moment, they put all their strength into themselves, and even their screams contained an extreme sense of pleasure.

It seems they derive immense enjoyment from this self-torture.

Their skin was torn off, blood spurted everywhere, and they even pulled their own internal organs out of their bodies.

The madness continues until the end of life.

More and more people fell into this depravity, until it spread throughout the entire area.

These all stem from the excessive blood toxins they ingested in the Killing City, which led to them being lured into this frenzied state by the Killing King.

Ning Feiliu only felt the extremely terrifying pressure from the King of Slaughter and had no intention of harming herself.

The King of Slaughter watched all of this with cold indifference, observing the bloody ceremony without wavering.

Blood spilled onto the ground and began to congeal, with large amounts of blood flowing like streams through inconspicuous thin pipes beneath the stands towards the center of the killing field.

Clearly visible, countless winding red liquids flowed into the arena like tiny snakes.

"It is their honor to become sacrifices for the opening of Hell," the King of Slaughter's deep voice rang out.

By this time, the screams had gradually subsided, and apart from Ning Feiliu, there seemed to be no one else alive here.

The blood flowed into the ground, but it didn't spread in a straight line. Instead, grooves appeared on the ground at some unknown time. The blood flowed into these grooves and gradually gathered into a huge blood-red pattern on the ground.

The pattern formed from congealed blood is a bat creature, a blood-red bat, which is the origin of the Killing City.

Suddenly, the bat-patterned eyes lit up, and Ning Feiliu focused her mental energy, forcing herself to stay awake.

As the crimson light devoured it, a huge void gradually appeared below.

He slowly stepped back, instead of falling straight down.

The King of Slaughter was quite surprised that he was still conscious, but he wasn't angry or anything.

He smiled and said to Ning Feiliu, "Sword King, please, the road to hell is about to begin."

The Path to Hell is located below the City of Slaughter, a fact also mentioned in the original text.

What Ning Feiliu saw below the City of Slaughter was a blood-red ocean that stretched to the horizon. Above the blood sea, only a very narrow "path" could be seen, and all other details were hidden in the darkness.

Is this... the road to hell?

According to the original plot, he should first undergo a baptism of murderous intent before going down, followed by the Dark Gold Bat and the Dark Gold Nine-Headed Bat King, then the Ten-Headed Fiery Sun Serpent, and then he can climb up to get out.

He could obtain the essence blood of two kinds of exotic beasts, but he was still missing the essence blood of three more exotic beasts for his quest about the evolution of exotic beasts...

Ning Feiliu even considered setting her sights on the Crimson Nine-Headed Bat King on the King of Slaughter...

However, he quickly dismissed this unrealistic idea after only a brief thought.

They're eyeing the current King of Carnage?

Huh? You're really not afraid of dying.

Whether Xue Di can defeat the King of Slaughter here is another matter entirely.

I'm afraid even Di Tian, ​​who has lived for 700,000 years, couldn't defeat the King of Slaughter.

If he were to be forced out of his second stage—the form of the first generation Haotian Douluo Tang Chen—Even Di Tianlai would have to kneel before that super artifact, the Shura Demon Sword, which even slashed the Dragon God.

"Thank you, senior," Ning Feiliu said with a smile.

He was about to jump.

But at that moment, the King of Slaughter continued with a smile, "After you leave, please give my regards to your teacher."

"Yes, I will," Ning Feiliu said somewhat perfunctorily.

He's not Tang Hao's student at all! Greetings? What a load of rubbish!

Then he started walking.
