As Yang Podi continued forward, he finally arrived at the most crucial place.
A gigantic snake head appeared ahead, with nine bulges on its head and back, each resembling a bright red mushroom, seemingly with blood flowing inside. The snake's abdomen was particularly large, bulging in the narrow path, and its body length was at least ten meters.
This must be the legendary Ten Headed Fierce Yang Serpent, the most powerful being on the Hell Road.
When Yang Podi was still twenty meters away from the Ten Headed Fierce Yang Serpent, the giant serpent launched the first attack. A fiery red light suddenly spewed from its mouth, carrying a strong fishy smell, and quickly spread towards Yang Podi.
Seeing this, Yang Podi Instant Body Strike to the giant snake and thrust his Soul Breaking Spear at it.
Surprisingly, even when faced with Yang Podi's powerful and fierce attack, the giant snake quickly moved its body and nimbly dodged it.
Immediately afterwards, a huge snake tail slammed directly at Yang Podi. The power of the snake tail was obviously very strong, and sonic booms could even be heard in the air.
Yang Podi gritted his teeth, gripped the Soul Breaking Spear with both hands, and thrust it directly at the snake's tail.
The giant serpent's tail collided with Yang Podi's Soul Breaking Spear, producing a metallic clang. A small gash appeared on the serpent's tail, and the serpent itself seemed to have retreated considerably.
Yang Podi himself also took a few steps back. The power of this first Fiery Sun Serpent was even stronger than he had imagined, and its defense was even more terrifying. Judging from its strength, it was probably no weaker than a 50,000-year-old Soul Beast.
In particular, the snake's body is covered with very hard scales, making it impossible for ordinary attacks to cause any damage.
Yang Podi knew that this was a dangerous moment, and there was no one around.
Something seemed to flash behind Yang Podi, and then a pair of wings emerged from his back— Yang Podi's External Soul Bone: Tiger Eagle Wings.
With a flap of his wings, Yang Podi flew into the sky. The Ten Headed Fierce Yang Serpent seemed furious upon seeing Yang Podi's wings and roared at the sky.
A bizarre scene unfolded: Yang Podi wielded his Tiger Eagle Wings, flying swiftly through the sky, while the Ten Headed Fierce Yang Serpent coiled its body, seemingly gathering strength, ready to launch a fierce attack at any moment.
Like an eagle and a snake, they stood facing each other in this way.
As the two sides attacked each other, Yang Podi gradually left many wounds on the Ten Headed Fierce Yang Serpent, while Yang Podi himself, relying on the rapid flight of the Tiger Eagle Wings, almost dodged every attack.
The Ten Headed Fierce Yang Serpent seemed to know that it would fail if it continued fighting like this. It hissed and rapidly twisted its entire body, as if it wanted to destroy the entire Hell Road.
Yang Podi launched another Instant Body Strike, directly targeting the eyes of the Ten Headed Fierce Yang Serpent.
Clearly, the eyes of the Ten Headed Fierce Yang Serpent were its weak point, and it had to swing its tail to protect them.
Yang Podi seized this momentary opportunity and swung the Soul Breaking Spear repeatedly, countless spear beams appearing, which was the third move of Yang Podi's Nine Soul Breaking Forms: Ten Thousand Blades Return to One.
Countless spear beams gathered together to form a massive spear blade, which pierced directly towards the Ten Headed Fierce Yang Serpent.
The Ten Headed Fierce Yang Serpent continued to swing its tail to defend itself, but this attack seemed to be much more powerful than it had imagined.
In the end, the entire head and tail of the Ten Headed Fierce Yang Serpent were pierced by the spear's light, turning into countless fragments.
Yang Podi returned to the ground, relieved. The most difficult monster to deal with on the Hell Road had finally been killed.
Immediately afterwards, a fiery red bead flew out from the remaining body of the Ten Headed Fierce Yang Serpent; it was the Ten Headed Fierce Yang Serpent's inner core.
Yang Podi flew over quickly, grasped the inner core in his hand, and despite the intense heat emanating from it, Yang Podi completely disregarded the burn and directly stored it into his Soul Tool.
In the world of the Douluo Continent, bead-type treasures appear very rarely, but almost all of them are of the highest quality. This inner core of the Ten Headed Fierce Yang Serpent was, in the original work, one of Ma Hongjun's Soul Ring, and also his most important Soul Ring, if not the most important one.
Ma Hongjun's Martial Soul evolved into Seven-Headed Fire Phoenix because of this inner core. This inner core allowed his fire Phoenix Martial Soul to continue evolving. When Ma Hongjun broke through to level 100, his Martial Soul directly evolved into Ten-Headed Fire Phoenix.
This demonstrates the immense power of this inner core, which can only be described as exceeding the limits of the entire Douluo Continent.
It's important to know that things that can Martial Soul Evolution are extremely rare on the entire Douluo Continent; even Immortal Herb are rarely able to Martial Soul Evolution.
Yang Podi was also pondering whether using the inner core of the Ten Headed Fierce Yang Serpent as the First Soul Ring of his own Body Martial Soul would allow his Body Martial Soul to reach the third awakening at the Gold level, or even give his Body Martial Soul an incomparably powerful fire attribute.
From any perspective, this inner core of the Ten Headed Fierce Yang Serpent is priceless and a rare treasure.
As Yang Podi collected the inner cores of the Ten Headed Fierce Yang Serpent, the entire Hell Road seemed to begin to collapse.
Seeing this, Yang Podi immediately flapped the Tiger Eagle Wings and flew forward quickly.
As they flew further and further forward, the Blood Sea drew closer and closer to the Hell Road, and the entire space grew increasingly hot, even causing some to lose their senses.
Yang Podi gritted his teeth, forcibly suppressing his emotions, and continued to fly forward rapidly.
As they neared the end of the road, Yang Podi stopped and looked down at the sea of blood below.
In the original novel, Tang San destroyed the Slaughter City with the Blood Swan Kiss, and Yang Podi was also considering whether or not to destroy the Slaughter City at that time.
In the original novel, after Tang San returned from Sea God Island, he was hunted down by the King of Slaughter, whose true form was Tang Chen. The King of Slaughter was extremely powerful, even more so than Tang San.
If the Slaughter City is destroyed now, I'm afraid I'll be hunted down by the King of Slaughter. Moreover, the King of Slaughter knows I'm a member of the Breaking Clan, so will he directly kill the Breaking Clan? The Breaking Clan is no match for Tang Chen.
After much deliberation, Yang Podi finally sighed and decided not to poison the Blood Sea, instead continuing to fly towards the exit of Hell Road.
The exit of Hell Road was a white light. When Yang Podi entered the white light, there seemed to be an even stronger Slaughter intent within it. In particular, after his body entered the white light, his entire body felt as if it were in a state of icy cold.
Immediately afterwards, all the coldness seemed to seep into Yang Podi's body, and even gradually into his soul, and Yang Podi himself gradually lost consciousness in this coldness.
After an unknown amount of time, Yang Podi slowly regained consciousness. He was no longer engaged in the Slaughter and found himself in a lush forest.
Yang Podi seemed to sense something, and saw that the Soul Breaking Spear had been summoned at some point and was now held alone in his hand.
The Soul Breaking Spear Soul Breaking Spear still blood-red, but a white pattern had appeared on its shaft. This pattern was a white bat, the same pattern that appeared when the Hell Road opened. And this bat was none other than the Blood-Red Nine-Headed Bat King.
As Yang Podi carefully sensed the white patterns and markings, a white light appeared on the Soul Breaking Spear, enveloping the entire space, and all the creatures around seemed to tremble.
The Divine Slaughter's Domain, this must be the Divine Slaughter's Domain.
Yang Podi clearly felt that with the acquisition of the Divine Slaughter's Domain, the Soul Breaking Spear seemed to have become even more powerful, and the combined power of his Nine Soul Breaking Forms and the Divine Slaughter's Domain would be multiplied.
One could even integrate the Divine Slaughter's Domain into the Nine Soul Breaking Forms, which would likely be a disaster for one's enemies.
Yang Podi looked into his mind and was immediately shocked. In his mind, there was still a silver giant holding a blood-red Soul Breaking Spear.
But unexpectedly, not only did the Soul Breaking Spear bear the mark of the Blood-Red Nine-Headed Bat King, but the silver giant also had a Blood-Red Nine-Headed Bat King mark on his chest. How could this be?
Yang Podi thought for a moment, then summoned his Body Martial Soul. His entire body turned silver, from his arms and face to his flesh. Yang Podi could clearly feel that when using his Second Martial Soul, his attack, defense, strength, and speed had all increased dramatically, to the point of being unprecedentedly powerful.
Yang Podi sensed a white bat pattern on his silver skin, and after injecting Soul Power, the Divine Slaughter's Domain also appeared.
Yang Podi was secretly puzzled: What exactly is going on? In the original story, Tang San only possessed the Divine Slaughter's Domain with his Clear Sky Hammer, so how come he has two Divine Slaughter's Domain Martial Soul? And it seems he can use them together? Could there be a loophole in the Divine Slaughter's Domain?
After thinking about it for a while, I realized I couldn't figure it out, so I stopped thinking about it and left.
Yang Podi found a stream nearby and plunged into it without a second thought.
However, as Yang Podi entered the stream, the water in the entire stream turned blood red, and the fish that were originally in the stream quickly left, as if they were greatly frightened.
Yang Podi originally planned to catch a small Soul Beast to roast and eat, but when he caught a Soft Bone Rabbit, especially when he saw the blood coming out of the Soft Bone Rabbit, he seemed to lose control completely. His eyes turned bloodshot, and the Divine Slaughter's Domain was activated involuntarily. The whole world seemed to be filled with Slaughter.
When Yang Podi regained his senses, the Soft Bone Rabbit he had just captured had been torn to pieces. The surrounding area was a complete mess, with countless marks from the Soul Breaking Spear on the ground, and even many trees were damaged.
Yang Podi finally realized that he was in a very bad state and could not control the killing intent within him. If this continued, he would probably turn into a monster who only knew how to Slaughter.
In the original novel, after Tang San obtained the Divine Slaughter's Domain, he seemed to be very easily angered, especially when he first entered Moonlight Pavilion, where he almost killed the person who stopped him.
Tang San was able to gradually control the killing intent within his body and eventually use the Divine Slaughter's Domain perfectly only by relying on Tang Yuehua's Noble Domain.
His current situation is very similar to Tang San's Tang San, or even worse. Tang San has the Blue Silver Domain within him, which allows him to control the Divine Slaughter's Domain through Blue Silver Domain powerful life attributes. In addition, Tang San also has a 60,000-year-old top-grade Head Soul Bone, which can help him stabilize his mind.
However, he currently lacks Head Soul Bone and Blue Silver Domain that can counter the Divine Slaughter's Domain. In fact, both of his Martial Soul possess the Divine Slaughter's Domain, making his situation extremely dire.
Especially now, he seems to have a murderous impulse whenever he sees anyone, and he gets angry very easily, becoming extremely irritable.
Given the current situation, I'm afraid we won't even dare to enter the city. We should try to return to the Breaking Clan as soon as possible along the mountains and forests, and then we can find our grandfather to help us figure out a solution.
As for going to the Moonlight Pavilion, that's impossible. The Breaking Clan had finally severed ties with the Clear Sky Sect, and they didn't want to get involved with anyone from the Clear Sky Sect again. They might end up losing the entire Breaking Clan because of a small favor.
Yang Podi seemed to have thought of something, and directly took out a Calming Pill from his Soul Tool. This was one of the pills refined by the Breaking Clan. The main ingredients of this pill were moonlight, night-shining insects, and white lotus. Its main function was to allow Soul Master to sleep peacefully and eliminate mental obstacles.
Yang Podi swallowed the Calming Pill directly, and his mind seemed to calm down a lot. However, relying on pills was not a long-term solution; taking too many pills would have the opposite effect. Once his Slaughter intent erupted, it might become even more powerful.
But I can't worry about that now. I need to ensure my own safety first. I'll figure out how to control the Slaughter aura once I get back to the Breaking Clan.
Of course, Yang Podi had other preparations on his own. Before coming to the Slaughter City, he had prepared several thousand-year-old Spirit Concentrating Grass and Star Spirit Grass, but these could only be used at crucial moments.
