At that moment, Lone Wolf Soul Douluo hurled a Poison Blade at him!
When the Poison Blade came within a meter of Li Jiutian, the killing intent surrounding him instantly sent it flying!
"You think you can kill me?"
Li Jiutian let out a mocking laugh, then kicked Lone Wolf Soul Douluo in the heart, crushing it!
"Please, don't kill me!"
"If you spare me, I'll do anything you want!"
After Giant Snake Soul Douluo finished speaking, she crawled to Li Jiutian's feet and rubbed the pair of snowy-white breasts on her chest—each a full E cup—against his thigh.
"I have no interest in shameless women!"
Li Jiutian finished speaking and crushed her skull.
"C-congratulations, 9111, on winning this match!"
The host shouted.
Thunderous applause instantly broke out throughout the arena. After all, it had been many years since such powerful fighters as Li Jiutian and Hu Liena had appeared in Slaughter City.
After watching today's match, many of the fallen prayed that when they had to fight, they wouldn't come up against this terrifying God of Slaughter.
After absorbing the meager Soul Power from the Soul Douluos, Li Jiutian strolled out of the Slaughter Arena.
"Xiao Tian, you're ridiculously strong now! There were five Soul Douluos, and you beat them so easily!"
Hu Liena gazed at him with stars in her eyes, full of admiration.
"They're just a bunch of ants. They don't even count as enemies!"
"Though they're Soul Douluos, their overall strength is mediocre."
"Besides, they all had their own agendas. If they'd joined forces against me from the start, the outcome might've been uncertain."
Li Jiutian replied calmly, thinking, Compared to Yang Wudi, that lot of trash doesn't even come close!
Somewhere beneath Slaughter City.
"That boy really is powerful. Even five Soul Douluos were no match for him!"
"If his Martial Soul couldn't convert killing intent into strength, how could he have won so easily?"
"Li Jiutian, you'll never obtain the Divine Slaughter's Domain!"
Tang Chen sprang to his feet. The stone pillars around him shattered at once.
He had a premonition that if Li Jiutian obtained the Divine Slaughter's Domain, the consequences would be unthinkable.
Chapter 48: The Power of Killing Intent, Hu Liena Breaks Through Absolute Defense!
In Slaughter City, the days passed in a monotonous cycle, and time flew by. Before long, a year and a half had gone by.
Inside the villa.
"Sister Nana, after today's match, you'll have won a total of 99 matches!"
Bai Wanting said happily.
"I have Xiao Tian to thank for that. Without his guidance, how could I possibly have completed 98 matches in such a short time?"
Hu Liena replied with a faint smile.
"Hehe, we'll finally be leaving this dreadful place!"
Bai Wanting couldn't help imagining the wonderful life waiting for her outside.
"Xiao Ting, tomorrow you'll have to stay in my Good Fortune Pouch for a while. I'll let you out after we pass through Hell Road."
Li Jiutian reminded her.
"Okay!"
Bai Wanting nodded firmly.
"Nana, this 99th match won't be easy. Be careful!"
Li Jiutian looked at her, his expression serious.
"Don't worry!"
Hu Liena replied, then headed toward the Slaughter Arena.
Inside the castle.
Slaughter Arena.
After a year and a half of training, Hu Liena was much more composed than before. The intense killing intent surrounding her showed just how many people she had killed during that time.
Hu Liena's eyes flashed red as she slowly walked to the center of the Slaughter Arena.
"Today, our Hell Messenger will take part in her 99th match!"
"She'll be facing two Soul Douluos and four Soul Saints!"
The host announced excitedly.
Applause rang out at once, while the audience's chatter and cheers filled the air without end:
"Hell Messenger, we love you!"
"Hell Messenger! Hell Messenger! Hell Messenger!"
"I'd say the Heaven-Slaughtering Demon God completed 99 matches a year ago. Has he been putting off his final match because he was waiting for the Hell Messenger?"
"Isn't that obvious? Of course he was! He wants to win a hundred matches alongside the Hell Messenger, then brave Hell Road together!"
"Exactly! If he hadn't been waiting for the Hell Messenger, the Heaven-Slaughtering Demon God would've gone through Hell Road ages ago!"
"This is so exciting! Only two Gods of Slaughter have ever emerged from Slaughter City. I'm about to witness history!"
With her years of battle experience, Hu Liena could tell at a glance that these Soul Douluos and Soul Saints were different from her previous opponents.
They moved in perfect order. The two Soul Douluos stood at the front, while the four Soul Saints stayed behind them.
"You're all just putting on a show. Let's see what you've got!"
Hu Liena scoffed.
"Brothers, release your Martial Souls!"
"If we can defeat the Hell Messenger today, we'll be famous for all time!"
"And we'll have all the Yellow Springs Dew we could ever want!"
After one of the Soul Douluos spoke, he released his Martial Soul, the Iron-Armored Turtle!
His Martial Soul was a giant turtle, its shell covered in countless spikes.
The Iron-Armored Turtle stood upright behind him, looking immensely sturdy!
The other Soul Douluo also released his Martial Soul. His was a huge shield, an unusual kind of Martial Soul.
Although their Martial Souls weren't as defensive as the Black Tortoise or Huyan Zhen's mammoth, they were still extremely formidable.
"Just as I thought. This 99th match won't be easy to win!"
"Nana, you'll have to adapt on your own!"
Seeing the two Soul Douluos release their Martial Souls, Li Jiutian quickly understood their strategy.
The other four Soul Saints exchanged glances and smiled, then released their Martial Souls one after another. All four had ranged-attack Martial Souls.
Three of them wielded bows, while the last had an ancient staff that could unleash fireballs.
"Hell Messenger, this time next year, I'll be visiting your grave!"
One of the Soul Saints said viciously. Then they all launched their attack together!
The sky filled with countless long arrows formed from Soul Power, along with fireballs, all shooting toward Hu Liena!
"You think such childish attacks can hit me?"
Hu Liena said coldly as she watched the arrows fill the sky. In the blink of an eye, she dodged them at incredible speed!
"Once I take out those four Soul Saints, defeating the two defenseless Soul Douluos will only be a matter of time!"
Hu Liena released her enormous fox tail, leaped into the air, and charged toward the four Soul Saints!
"Hmph, you underestimate us!"
As soon as the Soul Douluo spoke, the shield suddenly expanded to over a hundred meters and covered them overhead!
"Bang!"
The short blade struck the shield, leaving only a tiny crack in its surface!
"What a hard shield! I put eighty percent of my strength into that attack, and I still couldn't break it!"
Hu Liena exclaimed. Seeing the arrows rushing toward her, she had no choice but to put some distance between herself and her opponents!
"Tang Chen, you really outdid yourself!"
"You knew Hu Liena was fast, but her single-target burst and destructive power were nowhere near mine, so you sent out a lineup like this!"
"If I were fighting this match, it'd be over in less than three minutes!"
"But Nana's in trouble. This lineup was made to counter her!"
Li Jiutian watched the center of the arena and couldn't help sighing.
With arrows and fireballs hurtling toward her, Hu Liena could only keep dodging. Whenever she tried to close in, the Soul Douluos' formidable defenses forced her back.
The four Soul Saints needed only a small amount of Soul Power to use their ranged skills. If the fight dragged on, Hu Liena would simply run out of strength and die!
Xiao Tian once told me that no person or thing is perfect. Everything has a weakness!
If I let this drag on, I'll be at a huge disadvantage. I'm using far more stamina and Soul Power than they are!
Even the usually clever Hu Liena began to grow troubled in the face of this difficult situation.
"Nana, here in Slaughter City, killing intent is everything!"
Seeing her cornered, Li Jiutian shouted to her.
"Killing intent? Right! How could I have forgotten?"
Hu Liena's eyes flashed red. After dodging the arrows, she charged straight at the four Soul Saints!
"My Iron-Armored Turtle's defense is invincible. You're asking for death!"
After the Turtle Soul Douluo spoke, a giant shell instantly appeared in front of him!
"Xiao Tian, I can finally use the move you taught me!"
"Strike Across the Mountain!"
Hu Liena's eyes flashed red as she struck the shell with her palm!
"Tch, what a waste of effort!"
The Soul Douluo had barely finished speaking when screams rang out behind him!
Hu Liena's killing intent had passed through the shell and struck the four Soul Saints and the other Soul Douluo!
The four Soul Saints collapsed on the spot, turning into a heap of cold corpses.
"Her... her killing intent can actually take physical form!"
The Shield Soul Douluo exhaled a cloud of freezing breath, then died, still full of regret.
He should have been able to defend against that strike, but his carelessness and underestimation of his opponent had kept him from dodging it.
The Turtle Soul Douluo watched his teammates fall one after another. He quickly retreated over a hundred meters, staring at Hu Liena in terror!
"Y-you, don't come any closer!"
