The Tree Realm Descends on Douluo Continent

Chapter 395 Escaping the Sea God's Test

The gold and red spirit rings were exceptionally dazzling, illuminating even the dim environment of the Slaughter City.

The King of Slaughter stared at Li Xun's feet, his eyes filled with horror, and he subconsciously swallowed.

Just as he was about to say something, he suddenly remembered Li Xun's warning and quickly stopped talking.

At this moment, his heart was in turmoil.

The opponent's aura and the spirit rings beneath his feet were undeniable.

I never imagined that only six years would pass.

The opponent not only jumped from level 60 to a titled being, but also grew to a level beyond the limit.

What kind of beings are those who transcend the limits of strength?

god!

This completely overturned our understanding of the King of Slaughter.

Although there was a divine examination in the place where he was now, he never expected that there would actually be people in this world who could become gods.

However, the two things Li Xun wanted really troubled the King of Slaughter.

With the rise of the Slaughter City in recent years, his physical strength has greatly increased. Even the speed at which he eroded Tang Chen has increased dramatically.

If given another ten years or so, the Crimson Nine-Headed Bat King is confident that he can completely take over Tang Chen's body.

Then use this body to fight for that legendary divine position.

"."

Silence fell, and the Nine-Headed Bat King was caught in a dilemma.

They were constantly weighing the strengths of both sides and the advantages and disadvantages involved.

Over the years, people have continuously entered the Killing City, and people have continuously entered the Path of Hell. It has endured it all in order to protect this place and increase its strength.

First, they tolerated the Clear Sky Sect, then the Spirit Hall, and then the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School. Unexpectedly, just as the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School was about to succeed, Li Xun appeared again.

"It seems you've made your choice!"

Li Xun felt sorry for the King of Slaughter.

Suddenly, a clone appeared behind him and took the three-eyed golden lion.

Holding the Water-Cold Sword, he soared into the air.

"King of Asura, don't make a move yet, everything can be discussed!" This scene immediately startled the King of Slaughter.

The City of Slaughter has rules set by the God of Asura.

Apart from him, who is his half-master, even if a top-tier expert came, he would not be able to use his soul skills and flight ability.

In his surprise, he almost forgot about this rule.

Now, Li Xun is here just like he is outside; his strength may have already surpassed the limitations of the rules.

Even if that's not the case, if the two of them were to fight, this place would cease to exist due to the destructive power of an ultimate expert.

This is its habitat.

If it hadn't sought refuge here from the heavenly tribulation, it would never have grown to its current state.

"What? You agreed?"

Li Xun hovered in mid-air, a slight smile playing on his lips.

"If I hand these two things over to you, what will you do with this City of Slaughter?" The King of Slaughter gritted his teeth.

Although the other party is suspected to have become a god, he will not sit idly by if the other party wants his life.

"Keep it as it is, but the rules need to be changed. When I came in, I noticed there were far fewer people in the town up there. I guess you've been arresting quite a few people off the town, haven't you?"

"That won't do. If this place gets a bad reputation, no one will come."

Li Xun thought for a moment and then said.

Except for those he deems doomed to die, Li Xun generally won't push people to the brink.

After all, there's no benefit in killing him.

The Crimson Nine-Headed Bat King might drop some items, but they're not very useful.

If possible, it wouldn't be a bad idea to keep it here as the warden.

Soul beasts have long lifespans, and with good luck, this place can remain unattended for hundreds of thousands of years.

"I don't!"

The King of Slaughter was taken aback, then shook his head repeatedly: "I always wait for people to come down voluntarily, I've never gone up to capture anyone."

"The reason why the town has so few people is because the previous killing god came and slaughtered everyone a while ago."

"Not you?"

Li Xun asked, somewhat puzzled, "Who is this 'previous God of Slaughter' you're talking about? Do you know his name?"

"I don't know his name, since very few people who come here use their real names. I only know that he is from the Haotian Sect."

Seeing that Li Xun had taken his words to heart, the King of Slaughter secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

"You didn't kill him?"

The combination of the titles "God of Slaughter" and "Haotian Sect" instantly pinpointed the newcomer to Li Xun.

"You should know more about the power behind him than I do," the King of Slaughter said after a moment's hesitation.

Li Xun was speechless upon hearing this.

He had always known that this guy bullied the weak and feared the strong, and that he cared a lot about the Killing City.

He managed to safely pass through the Hell Road by taking advantage of the King of Slaughter's personality.

Li Xun just didn't expect it to be this soft!

They actually tolerated being ridden on their heads.

"Alright, then the Slaughter City will remain as it is. You can continue to guard this place. If anything happens in the future, you can contact the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School."

"When I get back, I'll have someone come and register you at the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School."

"I think I have some credibility when I say things, don't you think?"

Li Xun smiled.

"."

Remembering that Li Xun had indeed kept his word last time, the King of Slaughter hesitated for a moment, then gritted his teeth and said, "Alright, then I'll believe you."

You'll be glad you made this choice.

Seeing that the other party wasn't completely unyielding, Li Xun nodded.

If the Crimson Nine-Headed Bat King does well, it's not impossible to give it a hand in the future.

Without any warning, the King of Slaughter vanished from Li Xun's sight.

However, Li Xun was not in a hurry and just stood quietly in the air.

as predicted.

However, after only a few breaths, the King of Slaughter reappeared, this time wielding a blood-red greatsword.

The moment this sword comes into view, one can feel an evil aura emanating from it; the two-meter-long blade is covered with intricate patterns.

What's even more intriguing is the sharp killing intent that this sword constantly exudes.

Even Li Xun couldn't help but raise an eyebrow.

It wasn't that he was influenced by the sword, but rather that he disliked its aura.

"That... gentleman."

Having always been flattered by others, the King of Slaughter was clearly somewhat uncomfortable with this new identity.

He could only sullenly hand over the sword.

Li Xun didn't tease the other party, but reached out and took the sword.

Suddenly, a surge of crimson energy flowed from the Asura Demon Sword into his body.

This energy is extremely domineering, cold and chilling, and also has a strong ability to invade.

It quickly seized territory as soon as it entered Li Xun's body, and then engaged in a fierce conflict with the Sea God's affinity.

The Sea God's affinity on Li Xun was originally shared between him and Ning Rongrong, and his divine power, less than fifty percent, was no match for the Asura God's power.

Upon contact, it was swiftly crushed by the red Asura divine power.

In just a few breaths, the power of the sea god was compressed into a ball and was about to be completely swallowed up.

Li Xun watched quietly as things unfolded, without intervening.

He never intended to inherit the position of the Sea God. When he was planning for Ning Rongrong, he was just dragged onto the train by the Sea God.

He was worried about how to break free from the sea god's divine test, and this move indirectly fulfilled his wish.

He neither offended the sea god nor did he leave the divine position to Ning Rongrong.

Given Ning Rongrong's current talent and the configuration of her spirit rings and spirit bones, the Sea God probably wouldn't want to lose another successor!

The red divine power truly lives up to its reputation as belonging to the God of Asura.

In the brief moment that Li Xun was pondering, he almost completely exhausted the power of the Sea God.

The golden mark between Li Xun's eyebrows, symbolizing the heart of the sea god, gradually faded and then disappeared.

Immediately afterwards, a thin red line appeared between his eyebrows, and then the color became darker and the line became thicker.

Until it transformed into a shrunken Asura Demon Sword.

Suddenly opening his eyes, a chilling aura emanated from Li Xun.

The terrifying aura emanating from him only amplified the pressure.

Even the King of Slaughter couldn't help but tremble, fearing that Li Xun might suddenly attack him.

"???"

Li Xun looked at the Demon Slayer Sword in his hand with a puzzled expression: "Where's the Divine Test?"

Didn't the God of Asura consider that he might voluntarily give up the Sea God's assessment, thus assigning the task?

But even if it wasn't the ninth exam, it should have been given at least the seventh or eighth exam!

At the very least, the sixth and seventh exams should at least be a token effort!

Do you really think you can get the Sea God's test for free and reap the benefits without lifting a finger?

Suddenly, Li Xun thought of the worst-case scenario.

He remembered that Tang San had been approached by the God of Asura during the ninth trial of the Sea God.

This was to test whether he could resist the temptation of power.

"Never mind, we'll talk about it later."

Li Xun decided to deal with the immediate issue first: "You can leave this body now."

The Crimson Nine-Headed Bat King sighed, realizing that the other side had indeed obtained all of his information.

"My lord, if I leave this body now, Tang Chen will immediately wake up."

If he resists, it could potentially cause damage to the city of slaughter.

"That's true."

Li Xun nodded: "I have a question for you. If I kill this body, will you be affected?"

"Um, sir, if I may be so bold as to ask, why are you so determined to kill him?"

The Crimson Nine-Headed Bat King asked hesitantly, "If possible, could you leave him here?"

"I can guarantee that within ten years his spirit will be completely worn down by me. Even if you have any grudges against him, I will definitely be able to settle them."

The Nine-Headed Bat King was actually very reluctant to part with Tang Chen's physical body.

"It would be fine if someone else left it to you, but not Tang Chen. It's not because I'm afraid of his power or whether you will become stronger."

"It's not that I want him to appear in front of anyone again, not even the slightest chance."

Li Xun had already told Poseidon that Tang Chen was dead.

In order to keep his word, he must die a clean death.

This also prevents Poseidon from being affected by Tang Chen's emotional state.

"I see.."

Having said all that, the Nine-Headed Bat King knew there was no possibility of further discussion, so he simply stopped talking.

"Sir, let's go upstairs."

As it spoke, the controller of the King of Slaughter flew toward the exit.

"No need, that's too much trouble."

Li Xun appeared instantly beside the King of Slaughter, placed his hand on the other's shoulder, and then the two of them vanished from the spot.

Upon seeing this, the clone also disappeared, carrying the Three-Eyed Golden Lion.

When the three people and one beast reappeared, they were already on a beach.

This is the small island at sea that Li Xun often brought his men to.

The King of Slaughter watched all this, his pupils dilating in shock, his mouth slightly agape: "Could this be... the legendary spatial ability?"

Even if its true form is an ancient mythical beast, it has never seen such unpredictable and mysterious methods.

And just as its soul was reeling.

Tang Chen's mental energy suddenly found an opportunity and launched a fierce counterattack.
