Douluo's Spirit Pearl Divine Sword

These nine people actually used their lives as bait in order to deal with Tianlin.

It seems they had agreed beforehand that whoever Tianlin was hunting would be the bait, and the chosen one would simply have to accept their fate.

However, there was one exception. While the other seven ran towards the edge of the field, he was the only one who turned back while Tianlin was chasing after the others.

It seems he possesses a secret strategy to deal with Tianlin.

"Soul-Locking Chains!"

The man moved. His martial soul was clearly a two-tailed monkey, but he used a soul skill that resembled chains.

Moreover, this soul skill not only locks Tianlin's body, but also his martial soul, truly deserving of the name "Soul-Locking Chain".

At the same time, the other four remaining Soul Saints all attacked Tian Lin, preparing to kill him. Even if they couldn't kill him in one strike, they wanted to push him backward before he could break free and let the lava burn him to death.

They really planned very meticulously to ensure they could kill Tianlin.

"How can he use soul skills? Could it be... a soul bone?" Tianlin asked in confusion.

There are only four types of skills that can be used in this killing city: innate soul skills, self-created soul skills, domain skills, and soul bone skills.

This is clearly not a domain, and a monkey spirit could not possibly use a chain-type talent spirit skill or a self-created spirit skill. Therefore, without a doubt, after eliminating all the impossibilities, the final result must be the truth.

"Very good, I've struck gold today. Not only will I take your lives, but I'll also take this soul bone. My body is like a sword, man and sword are one!"

At that moment, Tianlin suddenly merged with the Demon Sword. This was the self-created soul skill that Chenxin had taught him. Its effect was similar to the Haotian Hammer's ring explosion, which could greatly enhance his attack power in a short period of time.

"kill!"

Several sword lights flashed, not only severing the Soul-Locking Chains, but also decapitating the four Soul Saints who rushed up. This was no longer the Seven Kill Sword Technique, but the Seven Kill Sword Dao.

There are no moves, only the word "kill." In an instant, he unleashes all his killing intent, striking with the fastest speed and greatest power. Every strike is a deadly blow.

Within the City of Slaughter, amidst endless carnage, he finally mastered the Seven Kill Sword Dao.

"Did you feel that terrifying killing intent just now?" someone in the audience asked incredulously.

"Nonsense, my blood almost froze into ice just now because of that materialized killing intent. Is this still 9527?"

In their eyes, Tianlin was a character whose swordsmanship was exquisite but whose killing intent was never strong. But just now, they felt from him a huge killing intent that was no less than that of those who had won more than eighty battles.

"This Jun Tianlin isn't without killing intent; he's just completely concealed it. How did he manage that?" Hu Liena was utterly baffled.

Having been here for so long, even she occasionally loses control of her killing intent, but Tianlin is able to control it so perfectly, which is truly unbelievable.

Her teacher, Bibi Dong, had told her that if she survived the City of Slaughter, she would take her to a place to temper her heart and help her internalize her killing intent. However, Jun Tianlin seemed to have no need for this step at all. He was simultaneously strengthening his killing intent and immersing his mind in it. He could cultivate these two contradictory qualities simultaneously with ease; just how astonishing was his talent?

'brush! '

On the killing field, with a flash of sword light, the last Soul Master with a Soul Bone finally fell under the Heavenly Scale Sword.

Tianlin used his soul power to pull on his right arm; the soul bone from before should be on his right arm.

Sure enough, a dark right arm bone was forcibly peeled off by Tianlin. Judging from its quality, it should be a soul bone that was just over ten thousand years old. Its soul skill was the Soul Locking Chain move from before, which belongs to the control category.

The dark aura was very strong, which suited his little brother Gu Ran. He was just lacking such a soul skill. With this move, as long as the opponent was locked in place, the death aura and the raging heaven-shattering fist would be a fixed target.

Seeing Tianlin accept the soul bone, everyone's eyes were filled with greed. That was a soul bone! It was a treasure that could be used to perform skills even in this hellish killing field. Many times, it could save lives.

"Hmph, if you want to take it, then come on. But the City of Slaughter would better hire a body handler, because I only care about killing, not burying!" Tianlin said coldly.

He didn't lower his voice, and everyone present heard him clearly. Only then did they realize that the young man in front of them was no pushover; he was a ruthless person who had completed a hundred-man kill on his very first day.

To date, no fewer than three hundred experts have died by his sword. Many of them were ambushed but were killed by him. Trying to take something from him is just asking for trouble.

“Jun Tianlin, although this person is hateful, he can be used. My teacher said that Hell Road is extremely dangerous for me, so this guy can be used as a scapegoat.” Because of Bibi Dong, Hu Liena knew a little about Hell Road.

She had an idea in mind: first, to trick Tianlin into cooperating with her to pass the level, and then, by taking advantage of the information gap between the two, to make Tianlin her henchman when she went through the Hell Road. If she planned it well, she could even make this Sword Lord die here, to avenge the two times that made her lose face in the Spirit Hall.

However, Hu Liena believes that now is not the time. Their number of wins is not enough, and cooperating too early will only arouse Tianlin's suspicion.

Therefore, for a period of time afterward, Hu Liena remained the same as before, treating Tianlin like a stranger, and even when they bumped into each other on the road, they didn't exchange a single greeting.

More than a year has passed. By this time, Tianlin has achieved an 82-game winning streak in the Hell Slaughter Arena, while Hu Liena has achieved a 77-game winning streak.

Tianlin received a new nickname: Sword Dao Asura.

The names of the Sword Demon and the Messenger of Hell began to resound throughout the inner and outer cities of the City of Slaughter.

However, one thing puzzled Tianlin: why hadn't Tang San arrived yet? Later, he figured it out.

The reason Tang Hao allowed Tang San to come here was because Tang San had completely completed the training of the Chaotic Cloak Hammer Technique, his level was high enough, and his Blue Silver Grass had awakened into the Blue Silver Emperor.

But now, without the Eight Spider Soul Bones, without the Wisdom Skull, and with an insufficient level, the time he needs to completely complete the body tempering cultivation will naturally be much longer than in the original story.

Moreover, the Blue Silver King was intercepted by Tianlin beforehand, and he probably can't even find a way to awaken the Blue Silver Grass a second time, so how could he have time to come to this City of Slaughter?

Even if he were to come, it would be delayed for at least two years. In short, Tianlin probably won't be able to see him.

Chapter 237 Sword Dao Asura and Hell Messenger

Time flies, and Tianlin's winning record has now reached ninety-five, very close to one hundred wins.

An urban legend has emerged in the Killing City: the most dangerous person here is the one with the least murderous aura, because you have no idea when he's about to kill you, and you can't even sense him when he walks up behind you.

In a dark room in the inner city of the City of Slaughter, the woman in black veil who had initially guided Tianlin was now kneeling on the ground, reporting something to the person in front of her.

"Kendo Shura won again today."

"I know!" An incredibly tall figure sat in the chair in front. Although his face was not visible, his boundless domineering aura was enough to make people tremble with fear.

"The great King of Slaughter, Sword Dao Asura's swordsmanship is truly terrifying. Moreover, he continues to hone his swordsmanship amidst slaughter. In the past year and a half, although his level hasn't increased much, his understanding of the swordsmanship is at least five times stronger than before. Furthermore, his sword seems to be able to attack regardless of the opponent's soul power defense. Even Soul Douluo are no match for him when he can't use soul skills, and even Title Douluo might be..."

The woman in black veil looked very worried, all because of a legend in the City of Slaughter: the God of Slaughter descends, bringing calamity to hell.

It actually refers to the appearance of a god of slaughter one day, and it is his appearance that will lead to the destruction of the City of Slaughter. Originally, this person was referring to Tang San, but now, it is still a question whether he will come. Even if he does come, he will not be able to produce the Snow Swan Kiss. ​​There is actually no need to worry about this legend.

"That messenger of hell must have around eighty victories by now, right?" the King of Slaughter suddenly asked.

The woman in black veil paused for a moment before replying, "Yes, eighty-four consecutive wins, second only to the Sword Dao Asura. Your Majesty, are you going to arrange for them to face off against him?"

“Of course not. The rules of the Hell Slaughter Arena state that fallen ones with more than fifty matches cannot meet in the same match, and even I cannot violate them,” said the King of Slaughter. “However, we can slightly redesign their match order so that they can both complete a hundred victories at the same time.”

"Your Majesty, are you planning to send them all on the Path to Hell?" The woman in black veil immediately realized what was going on.

The King of Slaughter took a sip of his Bloody Mary and said in a deep voice, "That's right. That Sword Dao Asura is special. He has no hatred in his heart and has never drunk Bloody Mary. It's impossible to plot against him. But the Hell Messenger is different. She has been here for so long that toxins have already begun to accumulate in her body. Once she enters the Hell Road, she will become a madwoman."

"The hatred in her heart is incredibly deep, and what's more, coincidentally, the object of her hatred is the Sword Dao Asura. When the time comes, the two of them will inevitably kill each other, and neither of them will be able to pass through the Hell Road."

"Your Majesty is wise!"

Unlike Hu Liena in the original novel, Hu Liena not only did not hate Tang San (who was using the alias Tang Yin), but also harbored feelings for him. The King of Slaughter saw this and therefore did not want the two of them to go through the trials together.

But things are different now. If Hu Liena and Tian Lin cooperate and help each other, it will be a joke. They will only hold each other back and even try their best to push the other person into hell on the road to hell.

His judgment was correct this time; Tianlin and Hu Liena could only be enemies, not friends.

In the days that followed, the competition schedule unfolded exactly as the King of Slaughter had planned. Sometimes when Tianlin went to register, he would have to postpone it because he couldn't gather ten people.

On the other hand, Hu Liena's matches went surprisingly smoothly. Gradually, her winning streak began to catch up with Tian Lin's, and eventually, both of them reached a ninety-nine-game winning streak.

"The King of Slaughter is plotting against me and Hu Liena!" Back in his room, Tianlin quickly realized what was going on. Although he wasn't very smart, he had followed Ning Fengzhi for so long that he knew a little about conspiracies and tricks.

Tianlin certainly knew how much the King of Slaughter didn't want the City of Slaughter to have another God of Slaughter, so this design was understandable.

"Jun Tianlin, may I have a chat?" Just then, someone knocked on his door. It was Hu Liena. This was the first time she had come to see him since entering the City of Slaughter.

"Come in!" Tianlin wanted to hear what she had to say.

Dressed in all black, Hu Liena walked in with a graceful gait, holding a Bloody Mary in her hand.

"Is there something you need?" Tianlin asked.

“Jun Tianlin, we have the same number of victories, and we will soon reach 100 victories at the same time. What do you think about joining forces to conquer the Hell Road?” Hu Liena stated her purpose directly. “My teacher is one of the killing gods who has passed through the Hell Road. She clearly told me how dangerous the Hell Road is. It is not something we can easily pass through alone. Only by joining forces can we have a chance of survival.”

"How can I trust you? I can clearly sense your murderous intent towards me!" Tianlin retorted with a cold laugh.

“Yes, I really want to kill you. The right leg bone of the Amethyst Spirit Cat and the torso bone of the Crystal Body were both soul bones that my teacher carefully prepared for me, waiting for me to make great contributions to the Spirit Hall. But now you have taken them away. You have made me lose face in the Spirit Hall twice. One day, I will grind you to dust to erase the humiliation of the past.” Hu Liena said without any denial.

"However, right now, more than killing you, I want to leave the City of Slaughter alive. So, let's settle our scores after we get out. To show my sincerity, I can tell you a secret. This is something my teacher told me: those who pass through the Hell Road will gain recognition in a special domain called the Domain of the God of Slaughter."

"You are Sword Douluo's disciple, so you should know how rare and powerful domain-type soul skills are. Apart from the one in ten thousand super-strong martial souls that can be born with a domain, ordinary soul masters can only obtain a domain when they obtain a martial soul true body at level seventy or obtain the ninth soul skill at level ninety. There is less than a one in ten chance of it appearing."

Hu Liena is very smart. She does not deny her desire to kill Tianlin, but at the same time she shows that she is more focused on her determination to escape the Killing City alive. Coupled with the allure of her talent domain, it is hard for anyone not to believe her.

Tianlin simply went along with her and said, "It's actually a domain-type soul skill. Fine, I'll trust you this once. If you want revenge, I'll be waiting for you anytime. But right now, the most important thing is to leave the City of Slaughter."

"It's a pleasure doing business with you!" Hu Liena smiled as she downed the Bloody Mary in one gulp and left satisfied.

Tianlin watched her leave, a disdainful smile on his face. Nine out of ten of what she said was true, and one out of ten was falsehood. Such lies are indeed the most believable.

It's true that she wanted to live, and it's true that she possessed the God of Slaughter Domain, but there's one thing Tianlin is certain of: she never intended to let herself also pass through the Road to Hell.

"Just you wait, Hu Liena, we'll see who schemes against whom then!"

Chapter 238 The Killing Arena: Hundred Victories and the Hell Road Begins

"Sword Dao Asura wins!"

Today, Tianlin finally achieved a hundred wins in the Hell Slaughter Arena. Even he found this last match quite difficult, as all nine of his opponents were Soul Douluos.

Rather than hoping that Hu Liena and Tian Lin would kill each other on the Road to Hell, the King of Slaughter would rather they not even be qualified to challenge the Road to Hell. Unfortunately, after nearly two years of training, Tian Lin's Slaughter Sword Dao has reached a new level.

Unable to use soul skills, without soul bones, without a domain, and without any self-created soul skills, even if nine Soul Douluos came, they would not be his match.

The King of Slaughter's expression was grim. He was almost certain that if this Sword Dao Asura were to venture into the Hell Road alone, his chances of success would be one hundred percent.

Someone has to restrain him.

For this purpose, Hu Liena had to go to Hell Road, so her opponents were much weaker. In this last battle, she only encountered one Soul Saint, three Soul Emperors and five Soul Kings.

With the wisdom skull formed by spiritual concentration and the fox tail, an external soul bone from who-knows-where, she easily achieved a hundred-game winning streak.

Tianlin hadn't watched her matches much before, but since they were going to become partners who would 'help each other,' they naturally needed to know each other a little.

After today's match, Tianlin finally understood why Hu Liena was so powerful. The reason lay entirely in the Wisdom Skull of Spirit Condensation. This skull was originally absorbed by Tang San and merged with his Purple Demon Eye to form the soul skill Purple Divine Light, a mental attack soul skill.

After being absorbed by Hu Liena, the resulting soul skill is Bewitching Light, which directly affects the soul. When Hu Liena encounters a powerful enemy, she will use this move to turn some of her opponents into her puppets, and then make them kill each other.

The emergence of two killing gods in a single day is a miracle that has never occurred in the City of Slaughter in the past hundred years, and the atmosphere of the Hell Slaughter Arena reached its peak at this moment.

Everyone roared madly, "God of Slaughter! God of Slaughter! God of Slaughter!"

"Congratulations!" At this moment, a voice came from above the Hell Slaughter Arena. It wasn't very loud, but it overwhelmed everyone.

"Is this the King of Slaughter, or rather, Tang Chen?" Tianlin thought to himself.

"Xiao Tian, ​​be careful! This person's strength far surpasses your master's, and he's probably no less powerful than Di Tian!" Tianmeng Ice Silkworm anxiously warned via telepathy.
