Soon, a Giant Red Snake crawled out of the magma. It was the Ten Headed Fierce Yang Serpent.
"Rip, ahh~!!" The Ten Headed Fierce Yang Serpent roared furiously at the three of them, looking terrifying.
"That's it? Its aura is pretty good. It can indeed stop quite a lot of people." After seeing it, Xiao Bai gave her approval and assessed the difficulty of Hell Road.
But in front of Ye Wen and the other two, it was still incomparably weak.
The Ten Headed Fierce Yang Serpent still had no idea what kind of existence it had provoked. It simply opened its jaws and lunged forward to bite them.
"Little Snake, get down!"
Bang!!
As a result, Ye Wen struck it with his Eight-Edged Plum Blossom Hammer, smashing it on the head and blasting it into the ground in an instant.
Ten Headed Fierce Yang Serpent: ??????
I'm a mighty exotic beast from the Primordial Ancient Era, yet I was knocked silly with a single hammer?
Absolute terror instantly appeared in its eyes, because it knew that the person before it was extremely frightening.
Ye Wen leaped up and sat on the Ten Headed Fierce Yang Serpent's head, pressing the hammer against its skull. "Hey, Little Snakey! You're too weak. I don't even have any interest in you right now."
"You... just stay here and cultivate properly on Hell Road. If you reach the Hundred Thousand Year Level in the future, I might consider taking you in as a subordinate."
"For now, if you don't want to die, hurry up and get lost."
"Rip~"
The Ten Headed Fierce Yang Serpent was utterly terrified. It seemed to understand him and nodded its head twice in succession.
"Hehe, that's more like it!"
Ye Wen smiled and climbed down from its body.
Seeing this, the Ten Headed Fierce Yang Serpent hurriedly fled, disappearing without a trace in no time.
The Ten Headed Fierce Yang Serpent was known as the Head of Ten Thousand Snakes. What did that mean? It meant that it was practically the strongest among all snake species. The strongest snake species known on the continent was Dugu Bo's Jade Phosphor Serpent Emperor.
But even the Jade Phosphor Serpent Emperor was no match for it.
Although it was impressive, its cultivation was still too low, at only around fifty thousand years. In addition, Ye Wen had a limited number of Contracted subordinate slots, so he temporarily chose not to subdue it.
He wanted to see what the Ten Headed Fierce Yang Serpent could develop into after a few decades.
An exotic beast from the Primordial Ancient Era was equivalent to a species that had existed during the Early stage of life's birth on Douluo Continent. It was impossible for such a creature to have survived all the way to the present.
Therefore, it must have been affected by the Asura God and remained in an unhatched state for a long time.
It was not until over a hundred years ago, when Tang Chen arrived at Slaughter City and was affected by the Rakshasa God, that Slaughter City became an evil, filthy, and bloody place. In the end, it caused Hell Road to become a source of energy filled with evil, blood, killing intent, and blood.
Under the influence of this energy, the Ten Headed Fierce Yang Serpent hatched. In the magma that served as this source of energy, its strength and cultivation grew rapidly.
It reached fifty thousand years of cultivation within a century. Of course, this was only Ye Wen's personal guess. He could not be sure whether that was actually the case.
However, Ye Wen wanted to see what the Ten Headed Fierce Yang Serpent could grow into after a few more decades.
"All right, let's get out of here."
"Yes!"
The three of them continued charging forward. Before long, they finally reached the exit.
Ye Qian pointed at the stone wall above and said, "See that Colorless vortex up there? That's the exit!"
"Let's go. We'll leave one at a time! I'll go first."
Ye Wen leaped over in a single bound, then took one last look at Hell Road. "Slaughter City, until we meet again."
Such a terrifying Hell Road had been crossed by the three of them with ease. It was as if they had merely come for a stroll before leaving Slaughter City.
After Ye Wen entered the passage to the exit, countless strands of killing intent began to gather, condensing into a force that merged with his body.
Bang!
The terrifying aftershock of killing intent spread out. Ye Wen opened his eyes. The killing intent had successfully condensed, and he had gained the Divine Slaughter's Domain!
"So this is the Divine Slaughter's Domain? It really is an impressive power." Ye Wen sensed the Divine Slaughter's Domain, his expression filled with excitement.
That was because few people possessed Domain Skills. Even Titled Douluo might be unable to awaken a domain. Generally speaking, one had to reach around Level 96 before having a high chance of unlocking one.
The effect of the Divine Slaughter's Domain was to increase the user's Aura. Within the domain, the enemy's strength would be reduced by ten percent, while the user could unleash one hundred and ten percent of their strength. This was only its basic ability.
As the user grew stronger, its effects would increase as well.
At the same time, it came with a Domain Skill called Slaughter Assault. After locking onto a target, it doubled movement speed and increased attack power by thirty percent. This effect applied to all attacks, including Soul Skills.
In other words, after releasing Slaughter Assault first and then using an offensive Soul Skill, its power would increase by thirty percent!
It was still very powerful.
"How do you two feel?"
At this moment, Evil Tiger and Xiao Bai had also condensed the Divine Slaughter's Domain. The energy of the three domains was mutually clashing.
"It's great, boss! I absolutely love this domain!" Evil Tiger said excitedly.
Xiao Bai was fairly calm. She nodded and said, "This Divine Slaughter's Domain is extremely domineering. With it, I feel that relying only on my Level 16 Soul Power humanoid body, I could kill a Soul Elder by myself."
"That's right! Humans really are heaven's favorites! We've only been transformed for so long, yet our Humanoid Form already possesses such strength. In a few decades, wouldn't it be even stronger than my Soul Beast form?" Evil Tiger exclaimed.
"Although humans cultivate quickly, Soul Beasts have our own advantages too. We can live much longer," Xiao Bai said.
"What good is living longer? How many thousands or tens of thousands of years do we Soul Beasts need to reach the strength of a human Titled Douluo? As for humans, those with sufficient talent can achieve it within a century," Evil Tiger said with a sidelong glance.
"I can't be bothered to argue with you." Xiao Bai glared at him.
"All right, stop nagging."
As the three of them chatted, a group of people soon approached from the distance. At the front was Terror Knight Scott, followed by five Soul Sages and ten Soul Emperors.
These were the members of Slaughter City whom Ye Wen had asked the Slaughter King to send with him.
Scott led the group in kneeling on one knee. "Master! By the order of the Slaughter King, we have come to pledge our absolute loyalty and follow you at your side, obeying all your commands!"
"Get up. From now on, follow me. I won't mistreat you." Ye Wen patted Scott on the shoulder.
"Yes, Master!"
Everyone immediately stood up.
He might not be a good person, or a benevolent Soul Beast, but he would never treat the people around him or his subordinates poorly.
Evil Tiger and Xiao Bai had followed him for so long and had already experienced this deeply.
"Boss, what are our plans from here?" Xiao Bai asked.
At present, the Immortal Herbs that would affect Tang San's development and the two major moves involving Slaughter City had both been settled.
Next, Ye Wen would focus on subduing other Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bones, nurturing the Soul Beast Force, and improving cultivation in Humanoid Form.
Ye Wen thought for a moment before saying, "Let's return to Skywater Academy first. After a while, we'll take a trip to the Extreme North."
"All right."
"Set out!"
Ye Wen brought Evil Tiger, Xiao Bai, Scott, five Soul Sages, and ten Soul Emperors back to Skywater Academy.
At the same time.
In the Divine Realm, within the divine domain of the God King Asura God.
The Asura God was sitting cross-legged with his eyes closed, resting his mind. But he suddenly opened his eyes. He sensed three newly added Gods of Slaughter who possessed the Divine Slaughter's Domain.
"Hmm!?"
