Braving the Hell Road

Two weeks later

Hell Slaughter Arena

Nine Fallen Ones, each at the Soul Douluo level, stood atop nine iron chains. At the center of the arena stood a woman.

The woman's white dress gave off a clean and tidy feeling. She had neat, short hair that reached her ears, skin as smooth as a lychee, and a delicate face. She was about 1.7 meters tall with a very harmonious figure. The whole person gave off an ethereal feeling.

She is Ning Rongrong.

Ning Rongrong was different from when she first entered the Slaughter City; she now possessed a more heroic air. Her reserved temperament made her even more enigmatic.

She has lived in the Slaughter City for a year. That year's experiences have completely changed her personality and will undoubtedly change her life forever!

bang

Ning Rongrong, wielding Dual Guns, pulled the trigger. A single shot struck his heart, killing her last opponent.

One hundred matches!

Ning Rongrong and Ye Feng's promise was finally fulfilled.

An almost tangible killing intent formed a massive vortex in the air. The vast arena was completely silent under the influence of the immense killing Fallen Ones emanating from her.

One hundred matches!

Ning Rongrong's killing intent may not be proportional to her strength. However, at this moment, Ning Rongrong is an opponent that no one in the Slaughter City wants to face.

"Congratulations, young Nine Treasures Demoness."

A deep, sharp sound suddenly came from all directions.

The killing intent emanating from Ning Rongrong was reversed the moment that voice rang out.

In mid-air above the Hell Slaughter Arena, a blood-red figure slowly descended from the sky.

"Slaughter King!"

"Slaughter King!"

"Slaughter King!"

The Fallen Ones shouted in unison, showing no sign of stopping.

Ning Rongrong looked at the scarlet figure.

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

His face was pale. His blood-red eyes sent chills down one's spine, making it impossible to meet their gaze.

"Please welcome the Asura King, the Hell Messenger, the Demon Angel, and the Nine Heart Demoness."

A deep, sharp voice came from the Slaughter King. Four figures landed on the arena. They were Ye Feng, Hu Liena, Qian Renxue, and Ye Lingling.

"I am delighted to have witnessed the birth of five top warriors in the killing arena within the past six months. A hundred victories, unseen for decades, have been displayed in these five young men. They have made you tremble with their immense strength and terrifying killing intent, haven't they, my people?"

"Yes—yes—yes—"

"Asura King, Hell Messenger, Demon Angel, Nine Heart Demoness, Nine Treasures Demoness. I have decided to grant you the title of God of Slaughter as an exception. From now on, you may freely enter and leave the Slaughter City. Furthermore, you will be invited to serve as my guest ministers in the Slaughter City."

"Slaughter King, I have already replied to your request. Please open the Hell Road and proceed according to the rules of the Slaughter City," Ye Feng said.

To prevent Ye Feng and his companions from continuing to cheat, the Slaughter King established a rule: only five people are allowed to venture into the Hell Road at the same time.

Left with no other option, Ye Feng had to adjust his plans.

After Ye Feng's analysis, the people who decided to enter Hell Road for the first time were himself, Hu Liena, Control System Soul Master with the Martial Soul of Demon Fox, Qian Renxue, Power Attack System Soul Master with the Martial Soul of Six-Winged Angel, Ye Lingling, a Healing System Soul Master with the Martial Soul of Nine Heart Hibiscus, and Ning Rongrong, Support System Soul Master with the Martial Soul of Nine Treasures Glazed Tile Pagoda Spirit.

One controller, one healer, one support, and two attackers. This team composition is very well-balanced.

"Is that what you all think? You probably don't know how terrifying the Hell Road is. You should know that a person only has one life." The Slaughter King's eyes narrowed, clearly not wanting Ye Feng and the others to venture into the Hell Road together.

Qian Renxue sneered, "Great Slaughter King, isn't it a bit ridiculous for you to talk to me about life? This is a world of slaughter."

An even stronger red light flashed from the Slaughter King.

No one in the Slaughter City dares to speak to the Slaughter King like that.

The Slaughter King, wary of Bibi Dong, turned his gaze to Ye Lingling, Hu Liena, and Ning Rongrong: "And you, are you willing to accept my reward and become honorary guests of the Slaughter City?"

Without hesitation, Ye Lingling replied, "Wherever my cousin goes, I'll go!"

Hu Liena replied, "The teacher told me to listen to Ye Feng."

Ning Rongrong smiled and said, "I'm willing to share hardships with my cousin. Great Slaughter King, please open the Hell Road!"

A faint red halo emanated from the Slaughter King. If he hadn't been somewhat wary, he would have already destroyed the two people before him.

With the cultivation levels of Ye Feng, Hu Liena, and the others, he was confident he could kill them all. After all, this was a place where Soul Skill couldn't be used. The Slaughter King was extremely confident he could kill Ye Feng and the others as easily as slaying ants.

But reason told him he couldn't.

If he really does that, then Bibi Dong will lead the Spirit Hall's army to this place. When that happens, the Slaughter City will be destroyed.

When Bibi Dong came some time ago, she warned the Slaughter King of Slaughter King that if he did anything malicious, she would massacre the Slaughter City, leaving no one alive.

Whew~

The Slaughter King sighed helplessly and said, "In that case, traveling together on the Hell Road is not a bad journey. Then please give my regards to your elders."

As the Slaughter King's voice faded, his bat wings vibrated, and he soared into the air. A bewitching, blood-red mist began to emanate from his body. The immense aura forced Ye Feng, Qian Renxue, Hu Liena, Ye Lingling, and Ning Rongrong to retreat dozens of meters before they could withstand it.

The Slaughter King did not exude pure killing intent, but rather an aura of extreme evil.

Ye Feng knew this was due to the aura emanating from the Nine-Headed Bat King.

A sinister, chilling red ripple slowly spread out, engulfing the entire Slaughter City within breaths.

"The Hell Road is about to open!"

"Look, the Hell Road is about to open. I've been in the Slaughter City for so long, and I've never seen the Hell Road Hell Road open before. Only the God of Slaughter and the Slaughter King have seen it open."

"Only the God of Slaughter and the Slaughter King? What is this red light? Strange, my Soul Power is being stripped from my body. And... my life!"

The Fallen Ones, filled with anticipation and excitement, believed they would witness the opening of the Hell Road. However, some discovered something was amiss. Their Soul Power and life force had been drained. Their bodies were rapidly nourished, turning into red, thread-like substances that seeped into the arena of the Hell Slaughter Arena.

With the infusion of life force and Soul Power, the arena of the Hell Slaughter Arena lit up with a bright red light.

At this moment, the Fallen Ones who were watching finally understood. Apart from the God of Slaughter and the Slaughter King, no one had ever witnessed the opening of the Hell Road. Because those who had seen it were already dead.

By the time these Fallen Ones realized the gravity of the situation, it was far too late. In the blink of an eye, their Soul Power and life force were drained, turning them into dust, their souls scattered and their spirits dispersed.

At the same time, Ye Feng, Hu Liena, Ye Lingling, Ning Rongrong, and Qian Renxue, who were standing on the arena, felt a strong suction force beneath their feet. The moment their consciousness faded, they heard the voice of the Slaughter King.

"Good luck on your Hell Road!"
