Douluo Continent: Building a Divine Kingdom Starting from the Spirit Hall

Tian Hao didn't need to worry about the follow-up plans for the two empires and the war; the Spirit Hall would handle everything. After traversing mountains and rivers, he finally arrived at the entrance town of the Slaughter City.

"No one should recognize me now, right?"

Looking down at his current physique, Tian Hao was quite satisfied.

His method did indeed work; he stimulated his own blood and qi by using the blood and qi of the Golden Crocodile Douluo.

Qi and blood have a far greater effect on improving physical fitness than soul power. In just half a month, his physical fitness has improved a lot, especially in terms of physique.

His bones became thicker and his muscles fuller and firmer, reaching the level of Tang Hao.

Previously, although he was considered to be quite burly, he was a size smaller than Tang Hao. Now, he is finally on par with him, and even more perfect, representing a balance of strength and speed.

Add to that the changes in hair color and style, and even if Tang Yuehua and Xue Ye were face to face, they would definitely not be able to connect it to Gai Zongheng's disguise.

"Now I am the Sword Demon Tang Jian!"

After a final self-hypnosis, Tian Hao pulled his hood down further and walked into the town.

"The murderous aura is quite strong; there are at least ten lives involved."

Walking into the town, I couldn't help but feel a sense of感慨 (gǎnkǎi, mixed feelings).

Everyone here exudes a murderous aura; it truly deserves to be the entrance to the City of Slaughter.

These people came here to seek refuge for various reasons, but fortunately their problems were not serious enough that they did not need to enter the Killing City to hide.

Following the senses, they arrived at a tavern where the murderous aura was strongest. Upon entering, they found it to be completely dark, inside and out, even the waiters' dresses were black.

"This is truly a black-hearted establishment!"

Looking at the dark and gloomy interior, Tian Hao couldn't help but sigh that even the shop that Flander would open in the future wouldn't be as dark as this one.

There were dozens of customers in the tavern. When they saw Tian Hao enter wearing a cloak, they just glanced at him and continued drinking and chatting. However, these people all exuded a strong murderous aura, and they certainly had a lot of lives on their hands.

"I've heard that you can gain great power here!"

Reaching the bar, Tian Hao removed his hood, revealing a mask, and tapped on the table, asking the voluptuous waitress a question.

"You've heard right, this place can grant you power, but at a price. Are you prepared?"

The waitress didn't seem surprised by Tian Hao's question. She replied naturally, took a bottle of red liquid from the wine rack behind her, poured it into a glass, and pushed it in front of Tian Hao, gesturing for him to drink it.

"Human blood?"

Tian Hao was puzzled, not by the cup of human blood, but by the problem it revealed.

It is obvious that the Killing City was previously ruled by that bat, which is why there is the tradition of Bloody Mary. However, according to his guess, the Asura God of the God Realm must have also helped Tang Chen become a level 100 god, so as to use this to plot against Douluo Continent.

Now that Tang Chen has achieved the level 100 godhood, that bat must be dead.

If Tang Chen were to become the King of Slaughter, then given his personality, these rules shouldn't continue.

Was the guess wrong?

Or has Tang Chen already left the City of Slaughter?

"You can also call it Bloody Mary."

The waitress then carefully examined the masked man in front of her. Many people could smell blood, but few could smell human blood. This man was no ordinary person.

"I don't like drinking human blood given to me by others."

After refusing Bloody Mary's offer, Tian Hao took out a large bottle of blood and drank it straight from the bottle.

This is also blood, but it's the blood he stored up before he came.

In order not to arouse suspicion from the Asura God's mind in the City of Slaughter, he did not plan to use his life divine power to heal his wounds in the City of Slaughter. If he were to suffer an injury and lose too much blood, he could use this blood to replenish his strength and not let excessive blood loss affect his performance.

"also!"

Smelling human blood in the bottle, the waitress didn't insist and instead drank the Bloody Mary in one gulp.

"Since you have come here seeking power, it must be for the City of Slaughter, but you need to pass a test to enter the City of Slaughter."

Licking her scarlet lips, the waitress spoke with a seductive tone, deliberately lowering her body to make the abyss between the snow-capped mountains even more conspicuous.

Tian Hao remained unmoved, waiting for the other party to continue.

"What a boring man!"

Seeing that the man's eyes showed no emotion, the waitress frowned and muttered a complaint before saying, "The City of Slaughter is named after slaughter, so the test to enter is also slaughter. Kill everyone here, and you will be qualified to enter."

Upon hearing this, dozens of customers in the tavern turned their heads in unison, some even manifesting their martial spirits and staring intently, their murderous aura seemingly lowering the temperature.

"Are there any other assessment methods? I don't like killing, and I have no right to take other people's lives, unless they want to kill me."

"Besides, my fighting style is rather domineering. If we really fight, your shop will be reduced to ruins, and I won't have the money to compensate you."

Tian Hao did not agree. One of his tasks this time was to use himself as bait to lure out the Asura God's thoughts, so he naturally had to align himself with the characteristics of the Asura God's position.

Although the Asura God wields the power of slaughter, it is slaughter within the framework of rules and order, as can be seen from Tang San's future development path of the God of Slaughter domain.

Therefore, it is best not to kill indiscriminately and take the lives of others. You should show that you are a person of principle, mature in mind, and firm in will. You are a great young man who can bear the position of the Asura God and the best successor to the Asura God King.

This is the correct way to approach this mission.

"Originally there wasn't one, but your answer is quite interesting. I can let you into the Killing City, but you'll have to undergo an extra-rule test, which is much more dangerous, a near-death experience. If you have the guts, go down there."

Intrigued, the waitress took another look at the young man before her. She then activated a mechanism, revealing a vertical secret passage. A chilling aura spread out, causing everyone in the tavern to shiver.

Thank you!

Nodding his thanks to the waitress, Tian Hao walked over to the bar and leaped into the passageway.

"Anyone who wants to die can go down there; they're just missing Bloody Mary inside."

The waitress swept her gaze over the crowd, which was filled with burning desire, and said with alluring charm.

But those alluring words were like a mixture of ice water, even colder than the chilling aura, instantly waking everyone up. They quickly continued drinking and chatting as if nothing had happened.

Just kidding. With their limited strength, they'd only end up getting slaughtered. Otherwise, where do you think those Bloody Marys came from?

Moreover, as far as they knew, no one who entered the Killing City ever came out alive; who knew what it was like inside?

They were already quite content to be able to stay in this town outside the Killing Capital and receive some protection.

"Will you be the next killing machine?"

Her gaze fell on the passageway that exuded a chilling aura. The waitress activated a mechanism to close it, muttering to herself as she did so.

A few years ago, a killing god emerged from here, and she was the one who received him. The man's soul power aura was very similar to that of the young man just now, but the one just now was much gentler and more refined, unlike the domineering one last time.

I wonder if he can become the next generation's god of death?

Chapter 258 Heavy Sword Sweeps Across

As Tian Hao continued along the cold, dark passage, his doubts grew.

"What's going on? Why is the evil aura so strong?"

He muttered to himself that he could sense the activity of the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger in his spiritual sea, and through it, he could sense a large amount of evil energy around him, the concentration of which was very abnormal.

Although, according to Tang Chen in the original novel, the Rakshasa God had a secret affair in the City of Slaughter, it was all done in secret. Now, the intense evil aura is far too blatant.

With this question in mind, Tian Hao continued forward, walking diagonally down the passage for an unknown distance before suddenly stopping. He activated his X-ray vision ability and vaguely saw fluctuations in the surrounding space.

"It really is a unique, independent spatial realm."

He thought to himself, "Just as I thought," and continued walking forward.

He had long suspected that the Killing City was not simply an underground city, but a secret realm, at most in a semi-independent state.

This passage is not just a passage; it is a spatial passage.

After walking for several minutes, they finally emerged from the passage and arrived at the real killing city.

"Welcome to the City of Slaughter, a world of slaughter. You can do whatever you want here and get whatever you desire, but the price is your life."

Arrogant words rang out, and Tian Hao looked closely and saw that there were a hundred warriors in front of him, each wielding a large sword. The leader was riding a tall warhorse and holding a large, jet-black Guan Dao (a type of halberd).

“You are the first newcomer in history to require our enforcement team to entertain you as soon as you arrive.”

The knight with the great halberd grinned maliciously, showing great interest in the masked man before him.

He had been notified to come and assess a newcomer, and this was the first time he had ever done so.

"Is the 'nine out of ten chances of survival' test that the person upstairs was talking about you guys?"

The dark, heavy Haotian sword materialized. Tian Hao stared at the great Guan Dao knight opposite him, but his gaze subconsciously fell on the knight's head. He was disappointed to find no green hat.

Bah! A nobody who sells his head for a pittance doesn't deserve to use Guan Yu's great Guan Dao.

"You're brave, but also stupid... Holy crap!"

Before the Great Swordsman could finish speaking, he couldn't help but curse, because the masked man opposite him had actually launched a charge, charging at him and his hundred-man squad all by himself.

Are all newcomers this brave these days?

Although shocked, the cavalryman with the great halberd reacted with dissatisfaction, spurring his warhorse to leap forward and charge into the fray.

The warhorse beneath him was no ordinary horse either, reaching its peak speed in less than ten meters.

"Fifth Soul Skill - Black Moon Slash!"

Using the momentum of his warhorse, the Great Guan Dao Knight unleashed his fifth soul skill, slashing out with a black blade of energy that cut diagonally toward Tian Hao.

Facing this attack, Tian Hao neither dodged nor blocked. He fused his Haotian Soul Power and Seven Kill Soul Power to enhance his explosive power, spun around, and swung the Haotian Heavy Sword to meet the attack head-on.

The power of the Haotian Heavy Sword, weighing two thousand catties and enhanced by the force of rotation, is unimaginable.

The hard and heavy sword instantly smashed the blade energy, and then Tian Hao spun around again, using the Chaotic Cloak Hammer Technique to gather strength and slash at the equally dark Guan Dao.

"when!"

The dull clang of metal striking metal echoed outwards. The knight with the great halberd was clearly unable to withstand the impact of such a heavy weapon and force, and was tragically sent flying.

Adhering to the principle of striking while the iron is hot, Tian Hao continued running, and before his opponent could land, he swung his sword again to smash him.

"you……"

The Great Guan Dao Knight, whose arms were already numb, wanted to curse when he saw this, but could only hold his Great Guan Dao horizontally in front of him to defend himself.

"when!"

"boom!"
