Sword King
However, since it's the vast majority of people, it means that there are still some who dare to approach Chen Feng.
Not long after returning to his residence, Chen Feng's door was knocked on, and unsurprisingly, it was Hu Liena who came in.
Compared to when she first came in, Hu Liena's demeanor has become somewhat cold and sinister, clearly indicating that the long-term killing has had a certain impact on her.
However, compared to the others here, Hu Liena is undoubtedly in much better condition.
The reason why is this? It's mainly because of Chen Feng's existence; his Soul Skill can be lent to others.
As the number of deaths at his hands increased, his Mental Power also gradually began to grow. Not only did his Purple Demon Eye successfully enter the Mustard Seed Realm, but the duration of the Cycle of Rebirth also increased, and the Yin Yang Sword were no longer independent of each other.
In other words, he can use the Yang Sword in the Cycle of Rebirth and the Yin Sword in the Dustless Land.
Of course, the latter is not as significant as the former.
After acquiring this ability, Chen Feng lent Ice Heart to Hu Liena during his free time, and their participation in the Hell Slaughter Arena was completely staggered.
This way, one can communicate with a normal person here, and normal social interaction is conducive to maintaining a good mindset. The duration of the Cycle of Rebirth of despair is still too short for a single person. Having multiple people allows for communication and also extends the duration of the Cycle of Rebirth.
On the other hand, it also meant having someone to look after him when he was traversing the Hell Road. Through over a year of clandestine inquiries, Chen Feng confirmed that when he initially took...
The swordsman who entered Hell Road was the one who entered the City of Slaughter later than the other two swordsmen, which means that the other party's identity has been confirmed.
If such a powerful figure did not leave the City of Slaughter become Slaughter God, then where is he? He can only still be on the Hell Road.
Therefore, in order to deal with potential hidden risks, Chen Feng needs Hu Liena, a Soul Master with precise control.
Hu Liena walked in and said softly, "No one followed us this time either. It seems everyone here is terrified of our Sword King."
"Likewise, Hell Messenger." Chen Feng's lips curled slightly. "But we can't be careless; we mustn't let our guard down."
"Yes, I know."
After the two reached an agreement, they not only staggered their participation times in the Hell Slaughter Arena, but also secretly followed each other when one came out of the arena to prevent anyone from taking the opportunity to attack. This approach did indeed result in the capture of quite a few "old sixes," adding many more entries to their death list.
As for Sword King and Hell Messenger, those were nicknames given to them by others. Chen Feng was quite satisfied with these nicknames, as they reminded him of his childhood in his previous life.
After Hu Liena arrived, Chen Feng didn't waste any words and directly opened the Cycle of Rebirth to pull her in.
Although today is the day he participates in the Hell Slaughter Arena, and Ice Heart cannot be lent out, Hu Liena can still come and get a bit of Yang.
Seeing a sunny beach in a hellish place like City of Slaughter, even knowing it's fake, can still bring a lot of comfort.
Hu Liena's existence can extend the duration of the Cycle of Rebirth, and the phrase "mutual benefit" is perfectly exemplified in their relationship.
After entering the Cycle of Rebirth, Chen Feng took out two reclining chairs and set them up. Hu Liena easily chose one and lay down, then took out the juice she had prepared, took a sip, and let out a long, contented sigh.
"I can't even imagine what kind of life I would lead without you here."
Chen Feng also lay down on the recliner, took out a can of fruit and started eating, saying as he ate, "Probably like everyone else, gradually losing his way under the influence of the environment, the killing, and Bloody Mary."
If he ingests too much of the toxins here, it will be difficult for him to escape Hell Road. Even though he made ample preparations, the environment here is constantly affecting him, and the murderous aura generated by the large-scale killing will still condense on its own and become a part of his body.
However, because he controlled it well, no change was noticeable. Chen Feng did not deliberately resist this killing intent, because he knew that this was the ticket to the Hell Road and the foundation for forming the Divine Slaughter's Domain.
Hu Liena nodded. "You're right. No wonder it's a place that has produced only eight Slaughter God in a thousand years. The trials here are happening all the time, and they're incredibly cruel."
Chen Feng took a sip of canned juice and asked, "By the way, have you made any progress on the task your teacher gave you?"
"No, I didn't feel anything changed at all. The situation here is exactly the same as what the teacher described."
"Perhaps this change has disappeared."
That's what he said, but Chen Feng knew in his heart that this so-called change was probably related to him, but most people wouldn't think of that, and there was no need to let Hu Liena know.
"It's best if he disappears. That way, the task the teacher gave me will have come to an end. Speaking of which, I still have some questions about what we talked about last time." Hu Liena put the juice on the ground and turned to look at Chen Feng.
"Tell me about it," Chen Feng said, unsurprised.
During the year they spent together, he and Hu Liena often chatted, inevitably touching on topics of ideology. He then took the opportunity to gradually instill his own ideas into Hu Liena.
If Hu Liena accepts his ideas, then he can plant a spies within the Spirit Hall Headquarters. Although Hu Liena wouldn't betray the Spirit Hall's interests, at least Chen Feng wouldn't be completely clueless about the situation within the Spirit Hall Headquarters like before.
Rather than planting a spy, it's better to develop an informant with a special position.
Hu Liena did indeed accept Chen Feng's ideas, but there were still some things she didn't understand.
"You believe that Soul Master should cooperate with Soul Beast. With the development of techniques like the Ring Expansion Method, this approach is not problematic. However, Soul Beast are, after all Soul Beast. What if they were allowed into human society and a riot broke out?"
"That's a very good question." Chen Feng smiled; it certainly hit the nail on the head. "Safety is an issue that cannot be ignored. Soul Beast mostly live in the wild and have never been tamed; their wildness is indeed a problem."
"Yes, that's exactly what I meant." Hu Liena nodded.
"To solve this problem, we can approach it from two angles," Chen Feng, holding up two fingers.
Which two aspects?
"Firstly, we need to start training the Soul Beast from their infancy, allowing them to get used to living with humans and gradually eliminating their wildness. Secondly, we need to reach a consensus with those powerful Soul Beast who possess intelligence, using them to restrain those overly wild Soul Beast. We also cannot easily bring those Soul Beast that are too aggressive into human society, as they may not be willing to leave their original habitats."
"I see, this plan... is feasible," Hu Liena said after a moment's thought.
Chen Feng smiled. "Of course it's feasible; this is the solution I'm currently using."
The Soul Pact Method is used to bind young Soul Beast to humans and educate them, allowing them to live peacefully with gentle Soul Beast like Xiao Hei, A Fei, and Old Tie. Meanwhile, human-transformed Soul Beast like Xiao Wu, Gu Yue Ling, and Cang Xiao are sent to intimidate those who are disobedient.
As for Soul Beast like the Evil Serpent, which are too ferocious, or the Dark Devilgod Tiger, which pose too great a threat, then humane extermination is the only option.
Even so, getting humans and Soul Beast to live in harmony is a long-term endeavor, and various problems will inevitably arise along the way.
If that's the case, then we need to analyze each specific problem individually.
Hu Liena's progress in the Hell Slaughter Arena was a little slower than Chen Feng's, but not by much. So after completing ninety-nine matches, Chen Feng didn't rush into the final match, but instead adjusted himself while waiting for Hu Liena.
Meanwhile, in a dark and spacious room somewhere in the City of Slaughter.
A tall figure sat atop a massive, luxurious chair, while in a corner of the room, a cold female voice spoke, "The great King of Slaughter, the Sword King, is about to complete his hundredth match. His progress is too fast."
The King of Slaughter sat quietly for a long time before finally saying, "This progress seems familiar."
"You mean...?" The cold female voice held a hint of confusion.
"It's nothing, this is none of your business," the King of Slaughter said calmly.
The cold female voice dared not ask any further questions and could only change the subject, "Should we try to contact him? The City of Slaughter hasn't had a truly powerful member join for a long time."
The King of Slaughter chuckled and retorted, "Do you think he looks like someone who could stay in City of Slaughter?"
The cold female voice fell silent. The King of Slaughter continued, "Besides, we can't let him live. A guest came more than a year ago, do you remember?"
"I remember Scott said he was one of only two remaining Slaughter God in the world, and the most terrifying one."
"The Sword King was sent here by that Slaughter God. In this world, what truly threatens the City of City of Slaughter is not the Spirit Hall, but these two Slaughter God. Because they can use their Soul Skill here, there's no need to pay attention to the Sword King. Compared to the emergence of a new Slaughter God, bearing the wrath of that Slaughter God is a far more terrifying thing. Besides, the Sword King might not even be able to escape Hell Road."
"Great King, did you make some arrangements on the Hell Road?"
"Heh, it wasn't really an arrangement, just a coincidence." The King of Slaughter leaned back in his chair, his thoughts drifting back to a Hell Slaughter Arena more than a decade ago.
Two dazzlingly skilled swordsmen, each possessing traits perfectly suited to the City of Slaughter, met in a killing field.
It wouldn't be a pure coincidence, because one of the swordsmen was keeping an eye on the other, so it was normal for them to be grouped together. At that time, the King of Slaughter hadn't taken them seriously, so he didn't do anything underhanded.
In this match, the two of them delivered a spectacular battle, while the other eight were merely supporting characters. The one targeted was killed instantly, even though he cried out before his death that he was willing to join the King of Slaughter's ranks, he couldn't stop the other swordsman from killing him.
meaning.
Of course, this is also related to the fact that the King of Slaughter was not present at the time.
When the surviving swordsman rose to prominence, the King of Slaughter was drawn to his attention and learned of what had happened.
But time cannot be turned back, so he could only suppress his frustration at losing a subordinate and try to win over the surviving swordsman.
Then I was rejected.
The King of Slaughter was quite dissatisfied with this and arranged for many skilled fighters to participate in the competition with him. As a result, not only did these skilled fighters die tragically, but the swordsman also became increasingly terrifying. In the end, the King of Slaughter had no choice but to give up and send him to the Hell Road.
Fortunately, the swordsman met with an accident on the Hell Road; otherwise, there would be nine Slaughter God in the City of Slaughter, not eight.
Three months passed in the blink of an eye. After Hu Liena completed her hundredth kill, Chen Feng also successfully completed his last kill, standing in the Hell Slaughter Arena, facing the King of Slaughter had appeared there.
"Congratulations, young Sword King." The King of Slaughter, shrouded in a blood-red cloak, hovered in the Airborne, looking down at Chen Feng in the arena. "Please welcome the Hell Messenger."
The door opened, and Hu Liena, who Entanglement murderous aura but whose eyes were still relatively clear, walked to Chen Feng's side.
"Three days ago, the Hell Messenger completed a hundred killings and said he would consider whether to accept my reward and gifts."
"Now, can you give me your answer?" The King of Slaughter's crimson eyes stared at Hu Liena.
Hu Liena stepped forward. "My answer is that it would be more logical for me to accept your reward and invitation after passing the trials of the Hell Road."
The King of Slaughter's gaze turned cold. "Perhaps you don't understand the terror of the Hell Road, Hell Messenger. I hope you will think carefully."
"This is the answer I've thought about for three days," Hu Liena said calmly.
The King of Slaughter looked at her for a moment, then turned his gaze to Chen Feng and asked, "So, Sword King, are you willing to accept my reward and my invitation to become the Slaughter God in the City of Slaughter?"
From now on, you are free to enter and City of Slaughter.
Chen Feng didn't respond at all. "I share the same idea as the Hell Messenger. I also want to see the scenery of Hell Road first, and then discuss the matter of engagement with you, King of Slaughter."
"Good, very good. It seems you will have to join forces to pass through the Hell Road." The King of Slaughter had already discerned Chen Feng's intentions from his waiting.
"The King of Slaughter." Chen Feng smiled slightly.
"In that case, you'll keep each other company on the Hell Road. I wish you all the best on this journey." The King of Slaughter gave Chen Feng a meaningful look.
Chen Feng didn't care about the gaze. He knew that there must be some changes on Hell Road. This was why he still brought Hu Liena along, even though he was stronger than Tang San in the Original Work story. Soul Skill that affect the mind might be very useful.
Having received a clear answer, the King of Slaughter didn't waste any words and decisively used the Fallen Ones in the audience as fodder to open the gates of Hell Road.
If he could, he would certainly like to kill these two ungrateful bastards, but the presence behind them forced him to abandon that idea and obediently follow the rules.
"I hope you can maintain this composure once you're inside." The King of Slaughter thought coldly to himself, looking down at Chen Feng, who appeared as normal as someone from the outside world.
