After the God King of Goodness departed, Jun Yi lightly patted the dust off his body, wiped away the blood that had been forced out of his mouth, and revealed a disdainful smile on his face.
"This God of Judgment seems really ordinary. Are all Third-Class Deity this weak?" Jun Yi murmured.
"Child, the Third-Class Deity is actually not weak; it's just that he was timid and hesitant throughout, and didn't use his Divine Power." The Ice Dragon King's voice reached Jun Yi's ears.
"I just didn't expect his attack to be so weak."
Jun Yi had already gone all out, even foregoing his Elementalization and choosing to directly confront the God of Judgment head-on. However, the God of Judgment's attack had no effect on Jun Yi Jun Yi, forcing him to reverse his meridians and force himself to vomit blood.
Jun Yi did this to feign weakness, hoping to lower the guard of the people in the Divine Realm and cause them to misjudge his strength, thus giving him more time to develop Jun Yi abilities discreetly.
"This is boring. Let's go back to the Slaughter City."
Inside the Slaughter City, Zhu Zhuqing and Dugu Yan Yan's faces were filled with worry.
At this moment, the two of them had only one thought in their minds: Jun Yi's safety.
The two women, along with Hu Liena and Yan, waited for Jun Yi's return atop the walls of the Slaughter City. Just as they were growing anxious, a familiar figure suddenly appeared before them. " Jun Yi!" Zhu Zhuqing and Dugu Yan exclaimed in surprise. They rushed forward excitedly, only to find that Jun Yi's clothes were torn in many places, his body covered in wounds, and stained with blood.
" Jun Yi, what happened? Who hurt you?" Zhu Zhuqing asked anxiously, her eyes filled with tears. Jun Yi smiled faintly, "It's nothing, just some superficial injuries. It's all been resolved."
"Brother Jun, who was the person who was chasing you just now?" Yan stepped forward and asked Jun Yi.
"It is a deity, named the God of Judgment," Jun Yi replied.
"Gods... deities?" Upon hearing Jun Yi's answer, Zhu Zhuqing, Dugu Yan, and the other two turned pale, a deep sense of fear welling up in their hearts.
Although they had never seen a deity, in their understanding, gods were merely legends; they never imagined that they actually existed.
"This... how is this possible?" Dugu Yan couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.
"Why is that deity chasing you?" Zhu Zhuqing asked with a worried expression, gripping Jun Yi's arm tightly.
Jun Yi glanced at Zhu Zhuqing and said casually, "Maybe it's because I'm handsome enough that even the gods are jealous."
"What kind of time is this to be joking around like this!" Dugu Yan angrily punched Jun Yi's chest lightly.
"It's alright, it's all been resolved. The god who was chasing me has been captured by other gods in the Divine Realm. I estimate we should be safe for a long time to come," Jun Yi replied with a smile. " Jun Yi, is there something you haven't told us?" A hint of doubt flashed in Zhu Zhuqing's eyes.
"It's all minor stuff, I can handle it myself. By the way, are you going to continue training in this Slaughter City for the rest of the time?" Jun Yi changed the subject.
"Actually, I didn't want to come in the first place. You dragged me here. I really don't want to stay in this awful place anymore," Dugu Yan said helplessly, spreading her hands.
"I don't want to stay here anymore either," Zhu Zhuqing replied.
Seeing that both women wanted to leave, Jun Yi asked Yan and Hu Liena for their opinions.
"I plan to stay here and continue my training," Yan stated his position.
"Me too," Hu Liena said.
"Alright, then you can stay here. But now that the King of Slaughter is completely dead, I'm afraid the Slaughter City in chaos. How about this, Yan, I'd like to ask you for a favor. Could you help me tidy up the Slaughter City and try to prevent it from falling into chaos? What do you say?" Jun Yi asked.
"Of course." Yan nodded.
"Alright then."
As he spoke, Jun Yi summoned his God Ring, condensed a stream of Soul Power from God Ring, and injected it into Yan's body.
"This is..." Yan felt his Soul Power flowing through his body, warm and comforting, and his physical strength increased accordingly.
"This is... Soul Power!" Yan was shocked to discover that he could actually sense the aura of his Soul Ring. He slowly summoned his Soul Ring, feeling the surging Soul Power within his body. Yan was somewhat stunned. He could actually use Soul Skill in the Slaughter City?
"If we can use our Soul Skill, becoming the new King of Slaughter shouldn't be too difficult for the enemy, right?" Jun Yi said to Yan with a smile.
"Rest assured, Brother Jun, I will certainly not let you down," Yan solemnly promised.
"Alright, you all can continue cultivating here. We'll be leaving now." With that, the God Ring behind Jun Yi emitted a dazzling red light, Slaughter City seemed to sense it, completely reverting to its original state...
Jun Yi led Dugu Yan and Zhu Zhuqing directly to the Hell Slaughter Arena. They arrived at its very center and used the Asura Divine Power to fully open the Hell Road. The Hell Slaughter Arena was now like a giant beast awakening, with strange staircases spreading out and leading to an unknown Abyss.
"Let's go." With that, Jun Yi grabbed the two women's hands and jumped down.
The scene before Zhu Zhuqing and Dugu Yan shifted dramatically, as if they had been transported to another world. They felt a sudden dizziness, and when they opened their eyes again, they found themselves in another world.
Jun Yi led Zhu Zhuqing and Dugu Yan to a strange world. There was no heaven or earth, no Sun Moon, only endless crimson light. The red light shone throughout the entire Slaughter City.
A colossal rift appeared ahead, hundreds of feet wide and bottomless, within which flowed an endless river of blood, sending chills down one's spine.
"Is this the Hell Road? Jun Yi, what are we doing here?" Dugu Yan asked Jun Yi curiously.
"I came here to absorb the remaining Asura Divine Power, so that the Slaughter City will no longer be the place of the Asura God's legacy."
As he spoke, Jun Yi's entire body radiated a blood-red light. "You all just wait here for me. I'll be back soon."
Jun Yi then jumped into the Blood River and began absorbing the divine Divine Power contained within it.
Jun Yi, amidst the River of Blood, felt enveloped by a vast and pure Divine Power. This Divine Power was the remnant of Asura Divine Power, though extremely weak, it still possessed boundless might. Jun Yi immersed himself completely in it, continuously absorbing this Asura Divine Power, integrating it into his own Asura Divine Power, and gradually purifying it.
