Closing his eyes, Mu Ge silently digested the gains from the life simulation.
When Mu Ge opened his eyes again, they shone with excitement.
"Book of Healing!"
Mu Ge swiftly switched his Spirit to the Book of Healing.
"Light of Healing!"
Since his simulated self had already named this Self-Created Soul Skill, Mu Ge could not be bothered to come up with another name and simply used it.
As Mu Ge's words fell, the Book of Healing in his hand immediately bloomed with a soft white glow, which then enveloped him.
Bathed in the Light of Healing, Mu Ge could feel the injuries on his body gradually recovering.
It felt warm and comfortable, like being surrounded by... that.
But the sensation came to an abrupt end very quickly.
As the Light of Healing descended, Mu Ge's Soul Power was completely drained. Not a single drop remained.
The feeling was awful.
It was like a breathtaking beauty had delivered herself right to his door, only for him to realize he could no longer lift his blade.
Fortunately, although his injuries had not been completely healed, they had improved somewhat and were no longer as severe.
Right afterward, Mu Ge began cultivating to restore his Soul Power first.
It was not until the next day that Mu Ge had fully recovered from his injuries and replenished all his Soul Power.
After recovering, Mu Ge did not choose to continue participating in the Hell Slaughter Arena.
At present, he had only mastered one Self-Created Soul Skill, and it was a support-type healing Soul Skill that would not be much help in battle.
His victory in the Hell Slaughter Arena yesterday had involved a certain degree of luck.
If he continued participating, he did not dare guarantee that he could keep winning.
And the price of failure was either death or having his Soul Power abolished, after which he could only drag out a miserable existence in the outer city.
That was definitely not an ending Mu Ge wanted.
Fortunately, after obtaining one victory in the Hell Slaughter Arena, he had a one-year grace period. That year would be enough for him to use the Simulator to develop the Soul Skills he wanted and strengthen himself.
"That may be true, but very few people can hold out for an entire year!"
Mu Ge sneered.
He understood perfectly why this was the case: the Soul Masters here had all been controlled by Slaughter City's Yellow Spring Dew.
Those unaware of the truth only knew that a place like Slaughter City was filled with excessive baleful energy that continuously corroded the soul, making people violent and deranged. Only by drinking Yellow Spring Dew could it be dispelled.
For the Fallen Ones living in the inner city, Slaughter City only provided one free cup of Yellow Spring Dew each month. Yet the baleful energy continued accumulating, and eventually one cup of Yellow Spring Dew was no longer enough to dispel it.
At that point, the Fallen Ones would enter the next Hell Slaughter Arena match early, because each victory earned them a cup of Top Grade Yellow Spring Dew, which could completely dispel the baleful energy within a Soul Master's body.
Of course, that was Slaughter City's official explanation.
But Mu Ge knew that it was all nonsense, nothing but lies.
In terms of toxicity, the chronic poison contained in Yellow Spring Dew was more harmful and addictive. Without sufficient ability, even clearing the Path to Hell might not be enough to break free from Yellow Spring Dew.
"I have healing abilities, so I'm not afraid. Holding out for a year is certain, and I don't plan to keep drinking Yellow Spring Dew after this either!"
Mu Ge thought to himself. It was not that he feared Yellow Spring Dew would harm him, but because he knew that the so-called Yellow Spring Dew was processed from Soul Masters' extracted blood.
It had been fine when he did not know, but now that he did, Mu Ge would certainly no longer be willing to drink it.
No, the previous Mu Ge had actually known as well. He simply had no choice.
The Fallen Ones in the outer city had to contribute two cups of Yellow Spring Dew every month, which was really two cups of their blood. Thus, everyone in Slaughter City actually knew.
And although the Fallen Ones in the outer city were under the Slaughter King's protection and could not be killed, the Slaughter King did not care about anything except murder.
As long as you did not kill the other person, anything was allowed!
So in Slaughter City, the outer city was not much better than the inner city.
"Right now, the most important thing is to develop enough Self-Created Soul Skills that I can use even in a place like Slaughter City!"
"Only once I can use Soul Skills will I truly have the ability to protect myself here!"
"As for whether I should later achieve a hundred consecutive victories, become the champion of the Hell Slaughter Arena, clear the Path to Hell, obtain Divine Slaughter's Domain, and leave Slaughter City... I'll think about that later!"
What Mu Ge wanted now was to improve his strength.
The reason he was not thinking about leaving Slaughter City for the time being was also because he had yet to decide whether he should find a way to obtain Asura God's inheritance.
He knew that Asura God's inheritance was on the Slaughter King, Tang Chen.
As long as one could pass through the Path to Hell and obtain Divine Slaughter's Domain, one would have the qualifications to accept Asura God's inheritance.
The reason he said Asura God's inheritance was on Tang Chen was because Asura God's divine artifact, the Asura Blood Sword, was with Tang Chen.
As long as he obtained Divine Slaughter's Domain and could seize the Asura Blood Sword back from Tang Chen, it would not be difficult to take Asura God's inheritance from Tang Chen.
After all, Tang Chen had already failed!
However, reclaiming the Asura Blood Sword from Tang Chen would not be easy.
In the original story, even Tang San, who had already obtained the Sea God's weapon, the Sea God Trident, was no match for the Slaughter King—Tang Chen controlled by the Blood Red Nine-Headed Bat King.
At that time, Tang San had already become a Soul Douluo and possessed several 100,000 Year Spirit Rings. His strength was extraordinary.
Therefore, Mu Ge felt that defeating the Slaughter King would not be easy for him.
"Forget it, I won't think so far ahead. I'll first develop enough Soul Skills that can be used without Spirit Rings!"
Shaking his head, Mu Ge stopped thinking so much. He would take it one step at a time.
"Simulator, begin the life simulation!"
"Focus primarily on developing Soul Skills. Use the Clear Sky Hammer as the weapon for simulated development!"
As soon as the thought occurred to him, Mu Ge immediately summoned his Spirit and had it begin the life simulation.
The reason he chose to develop with the Clear Sky Hammer as his weapon was naturally because the Clear Sky Hammer was powerful. It was the strongest kind of Spirit Mu Ge had currently devoured and simulated.
Although he had also devoured and simulated the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, it was merely a support-type Spirit and not very useful here.
As for the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, one of the Upper Three Sects like the Clear Sky Clan, Mu Ge had originally been from the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan himself. Therefore, he had not targeted them, and naturally could not use his Spirit to simulate the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Spirit.
Crack~ Crack~
The familiar scene appeared once more.
The Simulator in Mu Ge's hand rapidly expanded, then spun swiftly like a Rubik's Cube.
As the Simulator began operating, Mu Ge's Soul Power also began to be consumed.
