Upon hearing this, the middle-aged man finally felt relieved.

He didn't expect that Su Mo would not only not pursue his earlier offense, but also let him continue to be the King of Slaughter.

He nodded hurriedly, his voice filled with the excitement of surviving a disaster: "Thank you, Lord Shura! Please rest assured, I will do my best to manage the City of Slaughter."

"Alright, you can go now. I'm going to stay here for a few days, so don't bother me during that time."

"Yes, sir. I'll go right away."

After the middle-aged man finished speaking, he got up and ran out of the hall, completely losing the demeanor of the King of Slaughter, as if he was afraid that Su Mo would regret it if he was a step too slow.

Chapter 210 The Supreme Artifact, the Asura Demon Sword

"Why won't you let me kill him? He just looked at me with that disgusting look," Gu Yuena said, frowning.

She feels uncomfortable just thinking about it.

As the ruler of all soul beasts, she has always been high above and respected. When has she ever been looked at like that?

Su Mo chuckled lightly: "Alright, I have a use for him. You should have felt it too. The people here are not good people, so I need someone to keep them in check and prevent them from going out and causing trouble on the mainland."

Gu Yuena pursed her lips and didn't say anything, but she was still not very happy.

"Oh, and by the way, let me remind you that once we're in a human city, you can't act without my permission, understand?"

"understood."

"Alright, I'm going to complete the Asura God Trial now. You and it stay here for now and wait for me to come back."

As Su Mo spoke, he handed the three-eyed golden lion in his arms to Gu Yuena.

Gu Yuena took the three-eyed golden lion and nodded.

Immediately afterwards, a small, blood-red sword mark appeared on Su Mo's forehead.

The next moment, a dark blood-red spatial vortex appeared out of thin air in the center of the hall.

Then, Su Mo stepped into the vortex, and his figure disappeared into the hall along with the vortex.

Light and shadow shift and change.

Su Mo stood before a magnificent, dark red palace.

A massive stone gate stood before us, its surface covered with intricate patterns, exuding an ancient and chilling aura.

"Should we be able to go in now?"

Su Mo muttered to himself, then raised his hand and pressed it against the stone door, pushing it hard.

Rumble...

A dull thud echoed in the empty space.

The stone gate slowly opened to both sides, revealing the scene inside the main hall.

The main hall was spacious, dimly lit, and entirely dark red.

In the center of the hall, a sword floats in the air.

It was a blood-red greatsword, surrounded by a dark red light.

The sword's shape was almost identical to Su Mo's martial soul, the only difference being its size.

This sword is nearly two meters long and has a thick blade.

This is none other than the Asura God's ultimate artifact, the Asura Demon Sword.

Su Mo stood at the entrance of the main hall, looking at the sword with a determined gaze, before stepping into the hall.

However, after he had only taken a few steps, the Asura Demon Sword began to hum, and the blood-red light on the surface of the sword suddenly surged.

In an instant, a chill swept over me, a chill that seemed to freeze my very soul.

At the same time, a violent killing desire surged into Su Mo's mind, attempting to control him and turn him into a machine that only knew how to kill.

However, Su Mo only paused for a moment before continuing forward.

He walked step by step toward the Asura Demon Sword, his eyes still clear and firm.

But the closer he got to the demonic sword, the stronger his killing intent became.

However, he remained unfazed throughout.

Su Mo roughly understood the test of this stage.

The Asura Demon Sword is associated with slaughter; to gain its approval, one must prove that they will not be consumed by the desire to kill.

If it were an ordinary person, or even a powerful expert at the Title Douluo level, it would be difficult to remain calm in the face of this intense killing intent, and they might very well become a bloodthirsty killing machine.

But Su Mo is different.

His martial soul is the Asura Demon Sword, and from the day he awakened his martial soul, killing intent has accompanied him.

Later, in the Asura Secret Realm, he endured a full year of being eroded by murderous intent, fighting against those negative emotions day and night. He had long since mastered the control over murderous intent.

Therefore, this intense killing intent surged into his body like a drop of water flowing into a river, causing no ripples at all; on the contrary, it became his strength.

Before long, Su Mo stood in front of the Asura Demon Sword.

Without any hesitation, he raised his right hand and grasped the hilt of the sword; it was icy cold to the touch.

However, at that moment, the Asura Demon Sword seemed to be enraged, and its blood-red light suddenly burst forth, illuminating the entire hall in a crimson glow.

The sword trembled violently, emitting a sharp buzzing sound, as if it wanted to break free from Su Mo's grasp.

At the same time, a killing intent several times stronger than before surged wildly into Su Mo's body through his right hand.

Su Mo's body trembled violently.

The murderous aura came too suddenly and too quickly, catching him completely off guard.

But he quickly regained his footing and rapidly absorbed the violent killing intent, transforming it all into his own power.

Just then, the humming of the Asura Demon Sword abruptly stopped.

The crimson light on the surface of the sword gradually faded.

The Asura Demon Sword was no longer violent or resistant, but was obediently held in Su Mo's hand.

Su Mo looked down at the Asura Demon Sword in his hand and stroked the blade.

The sword blade was cool and smooth, and it even had a sense of familiarity.

A slight smile played on his lips, revealing a hint of satisfaction: "Not bad!"

Although he now has two super artifacts, to be honest, he still feels more comfortable using the Asura Demon Sword.

While the Scepter of Destruction is powerful, he has used a sword for so many years, and the feeling it gives him is something the scepter can't provide.

Just then, a cold notification sound rang in Su Mo's mind:

"Seventh Trial of Asura: You have gained the approval of the Asura Demon Sword and passed. You are rewarded with 15% Asura Affinity, bringing your total affinity to 95%."

With a thought, Su Mo put away the Asura Demon Sword and casually began to examine the contents of the eighth trial.

The eighth trial of Asura involves battling a wisp of the Asura God's divine will for the duration of an incense stick burning. You may give up halfway through. The time limit is one year.

Su Mo pondered for a moment.

A year is plenty of time, but he doesn't intend to waste it.

After all, the God of Asura had already begun urging him.

Therefore, he planned to complete the eighth and ninth exams together before returning.

Composing himself, Su Mo strode out of the palace.

He stood on the open ground in front of the palace gate, looking up at the sky.

A dark red figure slowly condensed and took shape in mid-air.

It was a phantom formed from divine power, with a blurred face; it was a wisp of the Asura God's divine thought.

However, even though it was just a wisp of divine thought, the pressure emanating from that phantom was extremely terrifying. Even if a peerless Douluo stood here, he would probably have no chance of winning against this wisp of divine thought.

At this moment, Su Mo took a deep breath, and his eyes sharpened.

This battle is destined to be difficult, but he doesn't need to defeat his opponent; he only needs to hold out for the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, so the difficulty is not great.

With a flick of his right hand, the Asura Demon Sword Martial Soul materialized.

Nine soul rings—one yellow, two purple, one black, four red, and one gold—appeared around his body.

He gripped the sword hilt tightly, his body leaping up from the ground, flying into the air, facing the phantom of the Asura God from afar.

His expression was calm, but his eyes were full of fighting spirit.

He hasn't had a truly satisfying battle since he broke through the title barrier.

Today is the perfect opportunity to test my abilities.

“Come on!” Su Mo said firmly.

Chapter 211 The Eighth Trial of Asura

The Asura Secret Realm, in mid-air.

Su Mo first unleashed several of his amplifying soul skills, followed by the external soul bone Black Gold Sword Wings and the Asura Domain, greatly enhancing all his attributes.

However, the Asura Domain, which was originally able to suppress most of the enemy's strength, was completely ineffective when facing the Asura God's phantom.

The domain only provided an amplification for Su Mo himself, without suppressing the strength of the Asura God phantom in the slightest.

Su Mo was not surprised at all by this.

After all, that phantom was just a wisp of the Asura God's divine thought. Could it possibly use the power of the other party's domain to suppress the other party's strength?

This is obviously impossible, especially since the opponent's strength is superior to his own.

Just then, the eighth 100,000-year soul ring around Su Mo suddenly lit up: "Eighth Soul Skill, Asura Judgment!"

Suddenly, the Asura Demon Sword in his hand hovered above his head, transforming into a giant blood-red sword wreathed in red light.

Immediately, Su Mo pressed down with his fingers, and the blood-red giant sword slashed fiercely towards the phantom of the Asura God.
