With a single sword strike, he killed more than thirty people. The terrifying scene even brought the surrounding battles to a halt. Everyone turned to look at Qian Renhan, their eyes filled with confusion and fear of the unknown.
"What happened? What happened? How did so many people fall?!"
Everyone's gaze focused on the more than thirty corpses lying on the ground. The intestines and organs of several bodies that had been severed at the waist had been chewed to pieces by something unknown. The bleeding wounds on those killed by Sword Intent were even stranger, resembling jagged mountain ranges. They looked nothing like wounds cut by a weapon, but rather as if they had been meticulously carved by a sculptor.
Just then, the enormous Fallen Angel Martial Soul rose up. A domain that was nine parts black and one part red enveloped everyone in the plaza. The suppressive force contained within the domain restricted everyone's movements, making it difficult for them to move from their positions.
Beneath the Fallen Angel, black Soul Power condensed in Qian Renhan's right hand, forming a pitch-black holy sword that he held in his grasp. Looking at the several hundred Fallen Ones remaining within the domain, the corners of his lips lifted. "Becoming nourishment for my Sword Intent of Slaughter is an honor for trash like you."
"Ah—"
"Ah—"
"Ah—"
Countless screams rang out within the Darkness Domain. If the City of Slaughter was known to the outside world as a living hell, then this domain was true hell.
City of Slaughter, a dark and spacious room.
There was an exceptionally enormous chair, embedded with blue and purple crystals. These crystals formed the shape of a drum tower. Other than this chair, everything here was dark red.
"Sword Demon has used his domain. I'm afraid not a single one of the several hundred Fallen Ones remaining in the main plaza will survive." A cold female voice rang out from the darkness.
"I know." A tall figure sat down upon the enormous chair. In the darkness, his features could not be seen clearly. Only his long, lean frame was faintly visible.
At that moment, the tall figure was somewhat furious, yet also helpless.
"Great King, why don't you send the Enforcement Team to eliminate him? If this continues, the City of Slaughter will suffer devastating losses. Sword Demon kills anyone he sees without caring who they are. This time, the Fallen Ones' riot in the City of Slaughter was also deliberately orchestrated by him using a soul bone. His Fallen Angel Martial Soul does not fear the trial of Hell Road at all. If this continues, he will definitely become the next Slaughter God."
The King of Slaughter said coldly, "When have I not wanted to erase him completely? But the Angel Martial Soul—what faction do you think he comes from?"
"Angel? The Angel Clan of Spirit Hall!" The cold female voice suddenly turned even colder. "Great King, shouldn't we kill him even more so? Although we had an agreement with Spirit Hall a thousand years ago, who knows when they might tear it up? Killing a great enemy of Spirit Hall's Angel Clan would greatly benefit our City of Slaughter. Besides, apart from him, no one from the Angel Clan would dare enter our City of Slaughter."
The King of Slaughter snorted coldly. "The Angel Clan truly cannot enter our City of Slaughter, but nearly all of the City of Slaughter's supplies are currently provided by Spirit Hall. If we kill him and Spirit Hall stops supplying us, how will the City of Slaughter continue operating?"
"Every generation of the Angel Clan has a level 99 old monster, and that Six-Winged Angel Martial Soul is our nemesis. If Spirit Hall cuts off our supplies and we leave the City of Slaughter, that level 99 old monster certainly will not stand by and do nothing. Do you want the kingdom our City of Slaughter has built over a thousand years to be destroyed in an instant?"
The King of Slaughter's tone shifted slightly, as if he were mildly angered. The air around them visibly thickened, and a heavy stench of blood spread in all directions. In the corner, a curvaceous body trembled violently, seemingly terrified of the King of Slaughter.
"Let nature take its course for now. Once we find a new source of supplies and no longer need to rely entirely on Spirit Hall, it will not be too late for me to erase him myself. Slow down his progress in the Hell Slaughter Arena."
"As you command, Great King." The cold female voice gradually receded.
City of Slaughter plaza. The dark domain slowly faded away. Compared to before it had been activated, the red portion within the Darkness Domain had become deeper and far larger, nearly increasing by half. It was clear just how many people Qian Renhan had slaughtered this time.
Not only that, if anyone had carefully examined the Fallen Angel Martial Soul behind Qian Renhan, they would have noticed that its back had split open, as though something were about to grow from it. However, perhaps because it still lacked sufficient nourishment, it remained in a gestating state.
Corpses covered the plaza in a dense mass. Qian Renhan stood among them, holding a soul bone emitting blue light. This soul bone was the bait he had thrown out to lure the Fallen Ones. Now that all the fish had been killed, the bait naturally had to be retrieved.
Nearly another year passed. Qian Renhan sat cross-legged in his luxurious room, with the Fallen Angel Martial Soul appearing behind him as light flickered around his body.
If any Fallen One had seen Qian Renhan's current state, they would certainly have been shocked, because the lights around him were none other than Spirit Rings—three purple and three black, six Spirit Rings in total. A black-and-red domain erupted from the Fallen Angel Martial Soul, resisting the rules of the City of Slaughter and allowing the Spirit Rings to appear.
After reaching ninety matches in the Hell Slaughter Arena, the ratio of black to red within Qian Renhan's Fallen Angel Martial Soul's Darkness Domain officially reached four to one, giving rise to an even more powerful domain. This domain was enough to contend against the power of the City of Slaughter's rules—the Slaughter Domain.
According to what the King of Slaughter had said in the original work, he possessed the most powerful and tyrannical Slaughter Domain in the world. The effect throughout the City of Slaughter that sealed Spirit Rings was actually caused by the Slaughter Domain being expanded countless times to envelop the entire City of Slaughter. To use soul skills, one had to possess the Divine Slaughter's Domain, or an advanced domain capable of rivaling the Slaughter Domain.
Qian Renhan's Darkness Domain initially could not contend against the Slaughter Domain either. However, after the Fallen Angel absorbed the immense killing intent generated from the countless people he had killed, it successfully evolved into a formidable domain capable of rivaling the Slaughter Domain. Thus, under this domain's protection, his six Spirit Rings could appear.
At the same level, only a domain could oppose another domain. This was no empty claim.
Qian Renhan had therefore given this domain a resounding name: Dark Slaughter God's Domain.
Although the Divine Slaughter's Domain within the Dark Slaughter God's Domain was only an incomplete version and was nowhere near the level of a true Divine Slaughter's Domain, after passing through Hell Road, it would absorb immense killing intent and form the Divine Slaughter's Domain. Given the Fallen Angel's effect, it would likely devour all that killing intent into its own body and fuse it with the domain, so there was no problem with calling it that in advance.
