Chapter 30 - Hell Road

"My goal in coming here, was to take a walk on that Hell Road. Slaughter King, I appreciate your kind intentions. Please open the entrance to the Hell Road.

"Since it's like that, take a walk on the Hell Road. If you can pass the trials of the Hell Road and become a new generation of Deathgods, please pass along my regards to your elders.

The Slaughter King's intonation had clearly become cold, even to the extent it held a mocking meaning. Hell Road, was it truly so easy to break through?

Dense red smoke abruptly discharged from the Slaughter King, the tremendous aura forcing C.Y to swiftly retreat, directly withdrawing more than ten meters before they could manage to stand steady.

What the Slaughter King released really wasn't killing intent, but rather an extremely vicious aura, making people's bone marrow stiffen from cold.

The sinister cold red ripples slowly dispersed, in practically a few blinks of an eye, it had already spread through the entire arena.

Each and every one of the degenerates in the audience seats were extremely excited, they all wanted to see the opening of the Hell Road. However, what they didn't know was that their own lives had already reached the end.

Besides the Deathgods and the Slaughter King, nobody had ever seen the opening of the Hell Road before. Because, the people who saw it had all died. Or one might say, they had all become the offering to open the Hell Road.

C Y discovered that even though the red light emanating from the Slaughter King gave him great pressure, it really wasn't directed at him, but at the surrounding stands.

The originally frantically cheering degenerates gradually grew quiet as the red light fell on the stands. The expression of each degenerate gradually grew lifeless, then from lifeless to blood congested red. Before long, the red light formed an enormous barrier over the entire Hell Slaughter Arena. Painful miserable shrieks began to resound from those first touched by the red light.

Influenced by the red light, those degenerates seemed to go half insane, doing their utmost to scratch their faces, their bodies...

Degenerates capable of surviving in the inner city had, for the most part, a certain strength. Right now their full strength was completely brought to bear on themselves. Even to the extent that those resounding screams still held a note of excited joy, as if obtaining unlimited pleasure in this self mutilation.

Skin rolling up, blood splattering all around. They even scooped out the internal organs from within their bodies. Completely insane. Stopping only once their life had completely left them.

This change spread and affected more and more, until it extended to everyone present.

Even though C.Y had experienced immeasurable massacre here in Slaughter City, confronting such a large scale terrifying scene, His faces still turned pale, feeling as if the murderous spirit within them grew more and more difficult to suppress.

Blood spilled on the ground, and started to condense. The large quantities of blood were like little brooks, flowing down unremarkable little channels below the audience seats and spilled into the center of the Slaughter Arena. Countless streams of red liquid could clearly be seen flowing into the ring like little serpents.

C.Y's fist unconsciously tightened, rich killing intent constantly bursting out within him, at any time risking to erupt.

"To be able to become the offering to open the Hell Road, is their honor."

The Slaughter King called in a low voice. Right now, the screams had already gradually halted. Besides C.Y and the Slaughter King, there was already no longer any other person here.

Blood flowed into the arena, but not into straight lines. At some unknown time, line after line of grooves had appeared on the ground, and the blood flowed into these. Gradually, they converged into an enormous red design on the floor.

Right now, C.Y were within this pattern. It was very difficult to clearly see the entire design, but his spiritual force far exceeded that of common Spirit Masters. By chance closing their eyes at the same time, their spiritual force released into the air, observing the circumstances of their surroundings.

he discovered that the blood condensed pattern was unexpectedly a creature similar to a bird, only seeming somewhat strange, it wasn't as simple as a common bird.

What was this?

Just as C.Y was puzzling over it, suddenly, the eyes of that bird brightened. C.Y spiritual force was crushed in practically an instant, an enormous red light soaring up, engulfing the him in a moment. Their perception of everything in their surroundings grew fuzzy, only the Slaughter King's deep and sharp voice echoing by their ears.

"I wish you luck on the Hell Road."

The instant his spiritual force was crushed, Chen Yang finally realized what that bird design was. A bat. That was a drawing of a bat.

Swallowed by that red light, C.Y felt the ground drop out beneath their feet, everything in their surroundings becoming illusory, all their awareness this instant sealed. That pain of having no control made a kind of indescribable fear rise in their hearts. What they didn't see was that their killing intent condensed into a faint white layer that protected their bodies. If not for this killing intent, the instant he was covered in that red light, they would truly have been swallowed up.

Spirit power releasing, besides that layer of rippling white killing intent,

After an unknown amount of time, accompanied by a violent jolt, all sensation returned once again, the blood red light in the surroundings gradually fading.

As C.Y sobered completely, they discovered that they were on top of a round platform. This platform was only five meters across or so, not very large. The C.Y fell to the ground.

He awoke practically ,After looking in front he was shock,

Everything in his surroundings appeared a faint blood red. Outside of the five meter diameter platform below his feet, was unexpectedly a bottomless abyss.

Apart from this, a less than half a chi wide, capable of supporting only two feet side by side, slender little road led into the unknown darkness, and this was also the one and only path leading away from the platform they stood on.

Looking around,C.Y couldn't help puckering his eyebrows.

And after carefully looking he started to move forward not only that he also go at normal speed and stop after every 30 min so that he can regain his spirit power that he wasted during travelling in the road he fight with many type of creatures and one of them was now following him to kill because they are in group and he has to pass through it, he decided to sneak but found out by then and continue to chase he already killed millions but there are more and more.

Those blood red bats flew very quickly, and in a moment they had already gotten close. Their eyes were blood red, and having discovered their target, they made gaagaa noises, exposing sharp teeth. More than a thousand blood bats beating their wings produced a stinking wind, immediately bringing C.Y swaying.

Right now, because the blood bats didn't dare approach, the influence from the force of him wings naturally also grew less. C.Y subsequently withdrew his Clear Sky Hammer.

A comparatively large blood bat suddenly called out. Immediately afterward, the remaining blood bats began to issue piercing cries. Their voices were extremely sharp, and Chen Yang frowned as he listened.

Just in front of him, under the narrow road, hung an enormous creature. Hidden from the dim red light around them, it released a dark golden light.

That creature's body was more than four meters long, two enormous claws latched to the narrow road. Each claw was one meter or more in diameter, sharp talons sunk into the stone.

Amidst the shrieks of numerous blood bats, that deep golden figure slowly unfurled a pair of enormous wings, the terrifying wingspan actually reaching ten meters. The claws released sharply, the enormous wings beating down, and that tremendous body flew up. It was unexpectedly an incomparably enormous bat.

Its whole body was a deep golden color. Most frightening was that it had three heads. All the blood bats swiftly flew through the air, bunching together and hiding behind that enormous dark gold three-headed bat.

Chen Yang muttered:

"When hitting the little brother, it seems the big brother comes out."

The Clear Sky Hammer reappeared. The C.Y stood there calmly, constantly moving his spirit power through deep breaths.

The central head of the dark golden three-headed bat issued a shriek, unfolding those frightful wings, it abruptly threw itself towards C.Y.

Even before that enormous body flew forward, an incomparably intense imposing manner already hit them in the face, even more frightful than the wind from all the blood red bats before.

C.Y immediately estimated that the strength of this dark golden three-headed bat absolutely was above that of common ten thousand year spirit beasts.

If they could use spirit abilities, it shouldn't be much of a problem for him to deal with it . But right now he couldn't use abilities.

Confronting such an enormous, and furthermore flying, creature, also in this kind of terrain, was clearly extremely disadvantageous.

With the death of the dark golden three-headed bat king, the other blood bats instantly turned into a headless dragon, charging wildly at C.Y in retaliation.

However, as a leaderless army, not only had they lost morale, but also lost the wit to organize. Even though the quantity of these remaining blood bats was still considerable, it was still difficult for them to produce any further threat to C.Y.

Indeed, C.Y had already seen the enemy. That was a pair of fiery red eyes. Just ahead on the narrow road crawled a deep red creature.

He couldn't clearly see the size of its body, but he could discover through simple observation that it should be a snake. A snake with its enormous body twisted around the narrow road.

Its eyes weren't especially large but for some reason, C.Y immediately felt that the luster those eyes held was even more terrifying than the dark golden three-headed bat king from before.

On this serpent's head and back were altogether nine protrusions, each bulge was like a scarlet mushroom, and there seemed to be something like blood flowing inside. This serpent's belly was especially enormous, swelling over the narrow road, and its length was at least ten meters.

As they saw the serpent, the monstrous snake had clearly also seen them. Its tongue slowly rose as it crawled on the narrow road, and its reddish golden eyes immediately became bright like lanterns.

C.Y didn't knew what sort of creature this was, there was no record of it among known spirit beasts. But the less he knew, the more he were on alert, watching that uncanny serpent continue swaying forward, an incorporeal pressure filled the air.

Even if the blood bats from before had brought them no small amount of trouble with their attacks from the air, the true crisis had still been when the blood bats had tried to cut off their road forward.

Right now, this strange snake was blocking in front of them. Without a doubt, it had the ability to destroy the narrow road with absolute ease. Therefore, if he wanted to attack this serpent, then had to consider a method of attack that wasn't destructive to the narrow road itself.

Starting at a distance of a hundred meters, the strange snake issued guuguu sounds, just like the cries of an infant.

The nine fleshy tumors on its back also began to issue a reddish golden radiance.

Guu——

The firey red light on the narrow road fluctuated violently, even to the extent that it caused cracking sounds of burning rock. Even more terrifying was that this firey red light still brought a faint red mist. There was no need to ask, this red mist inevitably contained powerful poison.

Drawing a deep breath, the Clear Sky Hammer appearing out of nowhere, C.Y slightly squinted, his right foot swiftly taking half a step forward, his left leg bending into a crouch, the Clear Sky Hammer in his hand slipped from his palm, skimming out close to the ground.

As the Clear Sky Hammer met that fiery red radiance, red lines immediately appeared all over it. Like a street sweeper, spinning over the fiery red light, everywhere it passed the firelight disappeared immediately. Moreover, it struck towards that strange serpent sticking to the narrow road with incomparable speed.

A strange scene appeared. The strange serpent didn't collide rigidly with the Clear Sky Hammer. Seeing the Clear Sky Hammer was about to reach it, that serpent's upper body bowed, unexpectedly falling sideways into the abyss. Just after Clear Sky Hammer passed by where it was before, its head twisted around the narrow road once again, and its rear body followed the same process, unexpectedly dodging the Clear Sky Hammer's attack like this.

Even though the firelight had disappeared, that sweetly stinking mist already filled the air.

"What brilliance can a grain of rice hold?"

C.Y snorted disdainfully, a big leather bag already appearing in his hand. With a flick of his wrist, the leather bag flew into the air, straight at the center of the poison mist. Immediately afterwards, his other hand threw out the piece of realgar he took out before. Destroyed by C.Y strength, the realgar turned into a cloud of dust in midair, bombarding the leather bag.

Immediately, alcohol sprayed out over a wide expanse, mixing together with the smashed realgar, forming a realgar alcohol screen.

As long as it was snake venom, it would always be suppressed by realgar. Even though it might not always be able to detoxify it, when it was blocked like what C.Y did now, it was completely possible.

Indeed, where that liquid screen fell, that red poison mist immediately disappeared like fading mist or scattering clouds.

Even to the extent that there was still some realgar alcohol that fell on that strange serpent.

The Clear Sky Hammer reappeared in C.Y hand. He suddenly undid the rope around his waist, changing his original one handed grip on the Clear Sky Hammer into two hands, saying in a low voice:

"Stand where you are and don't move."

Finished speaking, C.Y was already swiftly dashing forward, charging to meet that uncanny serpent. But he only dashed three steps forward. As he took the third step, instantly, he swung the Clear Sky Hammer gripped in both hands, half turning, one swing already blasting out.

Strangely, this swing of his wasn't aimed at the swiftly approaching giant snake, but rather upwards, blasting into empty air.

C.Y Clear Sky Hammer shed rich black light, and C.Y body began to swiftly rotate like a gyroscope. the Clear Sky Hammer in his hands would blast out once, and the strength of his imposing manner would multiply exponentially.

Just like an enormous black whirlpool, constantly growing.

That pair of reddish golden eyes finally displayed alarm, and the nine reddish golden fleshy tumors on its enormous back grew even brighter.

Guuguu, guuguu, it seemed to cry in rage.

Bowing over the narrow road, the nine fleshy tumors were all aimed in Chen Yang direction.

Suddenly, those nine fleshy tumors burst open simultaneously, nine streams of golden red liquid suddenly squirting out. That liquid didn't travel straight at C.Y through the air, but rather shot at a spot in front of C.Y, where the nine shares of liquid merged together in midair. The instant before it struck C.Y, it suddenly halted, and all the liquid contracted simultaneously, forming an only fist sized golden red little ball, which then smashed on towards C.Y.

But at this moment, the movements of the previously constantly spinning C.Y suddenly stopped, changing from extreme motion to extreme stillness. From movement to stillness immediately seemed exceptionally strange. And the instant he stopped, the Clear Sky Hammer held in his hands was in a forward leaning pose.

A terrifying scene emerged, see a giant black dragon soar from the Clear Sky Hammer, and immediately afterward, the black dragon bombarded that reddish golden pearl in an instant. The originally about to strike pearl shuddered violently a moment, as if struggling. However, its struggle only lasted for a moment, the next instant it was blasted into the sky.

The black light gushing from the Clear Sky Hammer didn't stop at this point. The inclined forward black light sweeping angle dropped somewhat, streaking forward close to the narrow road.

This time, that giant snake no longer had any chance to dodge, because the length of the erupting black light already surpassed the length of its body by far.

Chii——

The black light flashed and passed. That giant serpent suddenly halted, and the black light disappeared without a trace into the darkness, without developing any loud sound.

C.Y inhale deeply once, his whole body seeming to relax, and he also withdrew the Clear Sky Hammer in his hands in the first moment.

The previously erupting powerful energy seemed to have utterly destroyed the giant serpent.

Each part of that enormous body that was on the narrow road unexpectedly quietly disappeared, turning into motes of dust and sliding away. And the parts of the body above, having lost the support of the ground, broke into several pieces and simultaneously fell into the abyss.

"You, what did you do?"

"Clear Sky School, Disorder Splitting Wind, nine by nine becoming one."

Raising his head, deep blue rays of light shot out of his eyes, looking above.

A golden red speck fell from the sky. C.Y stretched out his right hand, and with the pull of an incorporeal attractive force, that golden red light fell into his palm.

Astonishingly, it was the little golden red pearl previously condensed from the liquid shot from the uncanny snake's nine fleshy tumors before.

"Careful, it might be poisonous."

He wiped that little pearl he had caught on an unremarkable jade surface on the side of the soul ring, putting it inside.

"This is the neidan[1] of that monstrous serpent. Having lost the control of its main body, it's impossible for it to explode."

Indeed, this serpent wasn't classified as a spirit beast of this world.

Prehistoric beast, Ten-headed Fierce Yang Serpent. Incomparably poisonous, adult length over ten meters, possessing the most powerful fire poison of snake types, capable of forming a neidan after ten thousand years of cultivation, within those nine heads on its back. The emergence of the neidan would cause heaven and earth to pale. Obtaining that neidan, one could terrify the kings of serpents.

Thus being a lord of snakes.

What C.Y obtained was undoubtedly the neidan of the Ten-headed Fierce Yang Serpent. Even the nine by nine swings of his Clear Sky Hammer's Disorder Splitting Wind fused into one was still unable to compare to the destructive force of this neidan.

When that eighty first swing blasted out, C.Y had already accurately locked on his spiritual force, striking at an angle. He didn't truly collide with that neidan, but rather instantly merged his spiritual force to cut off the connection between the neidan and the Ten-headed Fierce Yang Serpent.

Having released the neidan, the Ten-headed Fierce Yang Serpent's defensive strength dropped substantially, how could it resist C.Y tyrannical Clear Sky Hammer attack? Its body immediately turned to dust.

The benefit of the Ten-headed Fierce Yang Serpent neidan was of course not limited to frightening the elders among serpents, and still had numerous marvellous uses. Obtaining it, C.Y current mood could already no longer be easily described, not even using words like 'transcendent' would do.

" This serpent was no spirit beast, but should have been a prehistoric beast. After its neidan has formed, its attack power is extremely dreadful. Just now I severed the connection between it and the neidan, exploiting the gap in the instant before the neidan exploded, then luckily killed it. And the advantage of this neidan is that it can make any snake venom ineffective, and moreover restrain all types of snakes."

The temperature still rose constantly, and the flowing deep red liquid in the abyss on either side gradually became clearer.

The road seemed to always move downwards. Nobody knew the true circumstances of Slaughter City.

Perhaps Slaughter City wasn't underground, but rather within the mountain.

These thoughts only flashed through his mind, right now it was even more important to him to leave as quickly as possible. For anything else, there would be time later.

Consequently, as he moved forward, the scorching heat the endured also began to grow greater.

Even more unsuitable to him was that this air seemed to contain a kind of particular miasma. The stifling feeling deep in their hearts grew clearer and clearer, and their own killing intent also grew more unrestrained.

In the abyss on either side of the narrow road, the deep red liquid boiled. That was indeed blood, but this stinking liquid seemed to have the temperature of magma.

he suddenly understood what the final challenge of the Hell Road was.

It was still a powerful enemy, but not an external one, but rather oneself. The demon in one's heart.

In the tremendous sinister atmosphere, under the influence of the red-hot nefarious blood plasma as well as his own enormous slaughter intent, in order to persevere and leave this place, what kind of unswerving determination and willpower would that require?

This final trial to leave the Hell Road was the most difficult.

Thinking of this, C.Y couldn't help inwardly sighing over his luck.

He had all kinds of abilities that could stabilize his willpower.

lood of countless degenerates over a thousand years, mixed with extreme toxin and concentrated. It could also be described as the basis of Slaughter City.

C.Y rigidly put his thoughts in order, constantly replaying bloody scene after scene from Slaughter City in his mind.

Watching the blood plasma in the abyss on either side grow closer and closer.

Just as C.Y anticipated, along with the temperature rising, the blood plasma rose on either side. He knew that he wasn't far from the exit.

After an hour, his mind constantly provoked by irritable killing intent, C.Y finally saw the exit.

The exit clearly led outside, white light forming an oval screen of light. There was the end of Chen Yang's journey.

However, the exit was still a kilometer away.

Even though the exit had appeared, it really was an exit on another shore. Right now in front of Chen Yang was no longer any road, it was all a blood red sea. The blood plasma finally reached here, unexpectedly forming a small lake, blocking his path forward, bubbles rising in the blood. A kilometer away, just like on the other side of an eternally uncrossable chasm.

There were no more creatures attacking, but here was the most powerful sinister energy as well as this thousand meter wide enormous gulf in front of him, became a practically uncrossable moat.

After stoping Chen Yang open his wings and fly towards the exist and suddenly stop smile at back saying by slauther city and left.

Climbing down, the exit was before him.

Chen Yang suddenly discovered that the killing intent around him seemed to be pulled by a particular force.

Turning around and giving a final glance to the Hell Road he had just walked, C.Y knew that these two years of sharpening in Slaughter City was an experience he would never forget in a lifetime. But he even more didn't want anyone else to come experience this terrifying world in the future.But, he was from spirit hall and know that this is the only place that stop evil soul master,so he also can't destroy it because it lead to evil soul master onvension in the douluo continent which lead to destruction .

With a sou sound, C.Y finally fled into that white curtain of light.

Everything around him seemed to change. The instant Chen Yang entered that white light, he immediately felt as if he had entered a special world.

Around him was a snow white nothingness.

In this world of boundless white, he couldn't use a bit of strength. All he felt, was ice cold.

It was as if immeasurable cold aggregated towards him, and also like immeasurable cold exuded from his body. In this white nothingness, Chen Yang endured that frightful pain alone.

A cold he should feel still appeared. That wasn't a true change in temperature, but rather the chill produced by killing intent. The purest slaughter intent swiftly invaded Chen Yang, and with each part entering, C.Y would tremble.

As that cold gradually made his heart stiffen, his consciousness and senses also gradually began to grow distant. But at this moment, C.Y was certain of Slaughter City's legend. Indeed, this was a domain, a domain condensed from killing intent. Of course, this domain was far, far too formidable ,Within the domain, he was like a rootless duckweed.

After an indeterminate length of time, as C.Y awoke from the pain, he felt as if he had been dreaming.

He lay within blue silver grass, and this blue silver grass was sending him trace after trace of warmth and nourishment. All his pain was already gone, the only feeling he had was of relaxation and the familiar fluctuations of spirit power, as well as the feeling of spirit abilities once again filling his body.

When he wanted to turn over and sit up, Chen Yang discovered that his left arm was somewhat heavy. As he turned his head to look, he unexpectedly saw the Clear Sky Hammer in his hand.

When he glanced at the Clear Sky Hammer, he was certain that it was impossible for that to have been a dream. On that Clear Sky Hammer, on top of the hammer head, there was a layer of white veins.

Those veins looked like the blood pattern on the ground of the Hell Slaughter Arena when the Hell Road opened, only much smaller. And moreover white.

As Chen Yang tried to sense that white veined pattern, instantly, a surging white light quietly filled the air. The white light discharged from the Clear Sky Hammer, but very soon, that white light became colorless, and Chen Yang's perception of the surrounding world immediately became different. Even the blue silver grass that was closest to him were trembling in this incorporeal current.

Deathgod Domain. This was Deathgod Domain? Chen Yang knew he should be excited, but having just left a place like Slaughter City, he couldn't be. Two years of hellish sharpening had had an enormous influence on his mindset.

Despite always trying hard to resist it, right now Chen Yang was not only pale, but even the space between his eyebrows revealed an unconcealable evil spirit.

"Imposing manner."

" It's imposing manner. Imposing manner and pressure formed from killing intent can frequently leave your opponents unable to display their full strength, but you yourself can exhibit one hundred twenty percent. The effect of the Deathgod Domain is the same. You possess the most basic Deathgod Domain. In the future, within this Domain, your opponents' strength will automatically weaken by ten percent, and you yourself display one hundred ten percent of your power. As your spirit grows, this proportion will also increase. Remember, spirits' innate domains won't suffer the restrictions of twin spirits, unable to be used simultaneously."

"Right now the number of people with this domain has increased to three. You will gradually get to know the effect of the Deathgod Domain in the future. Its uses are just as marvellous ,in different circumstances, it can have enormous effect."
