In despair, the Ten Headed Fierce Yang Serpent's life force gradually faded away.
Pei An walked up to the Ten Headed Fierce Yang Serpent's enormous head and waved his hand.
Liquid shot out from the Ten Headed Fierce Yang Serpent's nine fleshy tumors, slowly condensing in midair into a smooth, pale golden orb.
It was the Ten Headed Fierce Yang Serpent's Inner Core.
The Inner Core hovered in the air before falling into Pei An's hand. Its light flickered as he stored it in the Storage Soul Tool.
Pei An did not spare the Ten Headed Fierce Yang Serpent's corpse either.
An ancient exotic beast was worth a fortune.
Though it certainly could not compare to the Inner Core in his hand, once processed, it would undoubtedly be of great benefit to ordinary Soul Masters.
People of their cultivation level had no use for it, but Spirit Hall had plenty of people who could.
The two continued forward.
The temperature gradually rose, becoming increasingly scorching, while pale red mist permeated the surroundings.
Yet under the effects of the Life Domain Pei An had unleashed, they were not affected too greatly.
Before long, a faint white light appeared in the distance.
That was probably the exit.
However, the path directly ahead came to an abrupt end.
Below lay a red ocean. Blood had gathered here into a lake, bubbles churning across a span of a thousand meters.
For ordinary people restricted by the rules of the City of Slaughter, this was an impassable chasm.
Yet it did not slow Pei An and Bibi Dong in the slightest.
The Sword of the Living Judgement swiftly enlarged and carried the two of them straight toward the exit.
Flying on a sword was merely a sword cultivator's basic skill.
Pei An could only say that being a god's inheritor meant having cheats and doing whatever you pleased.
This was not Bibi Dong's first time flying on a sword with Pei An. Familiar with the routine, she wrapped her arms around his waist.
With her cultivation, even if Pei An did not use Soul Power to form a protective barrier, maintaining her balance during high-speed flight would have been effortless.
Even flying itself was simplicity itself for her, since her Soul Power had not been restricted at all.
But since she could take advantage of him openly and legitimately, Bibi Dong naturally would not let the chance pass.
Savoring the intoxicating scent of the person in front of her, Bibi Dong's Beautiful Eyes curved slightly. Her expression was one of enjoyment, and her arms unconsciously tightened.
Feeling the soft touch behind him, Pei An's face darkened.
Good grief, she was not even trying to hide it anymore.
Still, Pei An said nothing. After all, he was not losing out.
Bibi Dong did not get to enjoy it for long. A thousand meters was a distance Pei An could cover in an instant.
The flying sword vanished, and the two landed. Before them stood a dazzling white curtain of light.
"Let's go," Pei An said to Bibi Dong beside him.
Bibi Dong was still lamenting how brief their contact had been. Hearing Pei An's words, her Pretty Face flushed red. She nodded repeatedly and entered the white curtain of light with him.
As they stepped into the white curtain, everything around them seemed to have entered a white world, blank and boundless.
Countless waves of icy cold surged from nearby, drilling into Pei An's body.
That was the purest aura of slaughter.
It was also the process through which those who passed the Road to Hell obtained the Slaughter Domain.
As that slaughter aura poured in, the mark of the God of Life within Pei An's body seemed to trigger some sort of switch, releasing green energy to resist it.
The two forces clashed continuously, neither willing to give way.
Yet another force appeared to be watching the battle from the sidelines. It made no move, merely quietly protecting Pei An from being affected by the conflict between the two forces.
Meanwhile, in the God Realm—
"Asura, do not go too far!"
The Goddess of Life, who had always treated others with gentleness, was rarely angered. Her Exquisite Beauty was filled with fury.
She had brought the God of Destruction charging into the Asura God's divine hall, completely devoid of her usual composure.
"Life, what brings you to my divine hall?" The Asura God wore a "bewildered" expression, as though he knew nothing at all.
"Fuck your mother!"
Seeing the Asura God's expression, the Goddess of Life's anger burned even hotter.
It was the first time the God of Destruction had seen his wife wear such an expression. Though he felt awkward and frightened, he still reminded her, "Xiao Lu, mind your image. Mind your image."
The Goddess of Life shot him an irritated glance, her tone not softening in the slightest. "My image, my image—I was too concerned with my image, and that is why Asura thinks he can bully me like this!"
"Asura, stop playing dumb. You clearly knew he was my inheritor, yet you still wanted to leave your Inheritance Mark on him. Isn't that going too far?"
The moment those slaughter auras entered Pei An and triggered the Inheritance Mark, she learned everything.
If it had merely been the formation of the Slaughter Domain, the Goddess of Life would never have made such a fuss.
After all, an inheritor having one more domain or one less domain did not matter, as long as he ultimately inherited her Divine Throne.
But that old man Asura was not playing fair!
He had wanted to take advantage of the Slaughter Domain's formation to directly leave his own Inheritance Mark on Pei An.
How could the Goddess of Life possibly remain seated after that?
Did he know how difficult it was for her to find a suitable inheritor?
From the moment Pei An underwent Soul Awakening, the Goddess of Life had noticed him and observed him for a long time.
That was why she had bestowed the inheritance upon him when he was thirteen.
It was clear how highly she regarded this inheritor.
And after the inheritance descended, Pei An's performance had not disappointed the Goddess of Life.
Even with an assessment method she considered difficult, such as comprehending the Law of Life, Pei An's progress had remained quite impressive.
The Goddess of Life felt that it would not be long before she welcomed a perfect inheritor.
Now that the Asura God wanted to steal him away, how could the Goddess of Life not be furious?
That was what had turned the ever-gentle Goddess of Life into what she was today.
Hearing that his wife had been wronged, the God of Destruction immediately flew into a rage.
As a man who doted on his wife, the God of Destruction naturally stood with the Goddess of Life. Besides, the Asura God had been in the wrong from the start.
"Asura, give this old man an explanation." The God of Destruction's eyes, hidden beneath his massive hood, stared fixedly at the Asura God before him.
If the Asura God did not give him a satisfactory answer, he would absolutely make a move.
To the God of Destruction, the Goddess of Life was his forbidden scale.
Seeing this, the Asura God could only nod and admit it. "Fine, this time I was at fault."
"I could not help it. This boy suits me far too well."
"Just because he suits you, you can steal him?" The Goddess of Life felt like she was about to laugh from anger.
"As a Law Enforcement God, Asura, you are knowingly breaking the law!"
The Asura God had no response.
He truly was in the wrong.
He had thought he could hide it from the Goddess of Life. Who could have known that she cared so much about this inheritor? The slightest action had exposed him.
The God of Destruction spoke in a low voice, "Asura, you have gone too far this time."
"Withdraw the inheritance, then apologize to Xiao Lu."
The Scepter of Destruction had already appeared in the God of Destruction's hand.
Lightning of Destruction, containing terrifying destructive power, danced upon it.
