Douluo Dalu: Seven Kills

Chapter 211: The Ruins of the Killing City
"Quack quack—"

The crows were wailing on the dead trees, but when they saw two figures stepping into the town, they quickly spread their wings and flew away.

"Is this our destination?"

Gu Tianchen took off his cloak and looked around.

Since they left the Star Dou Great Forest, Chen Junting and Gu Tianchen spent another three months traveling across most of the Tianhun Empire. They finally arrived at the northern border of the Tianhun Empire and stepped into this extremely desolate town.

This small town seems to have been forgotten in the corner of time, and is particularly lonely. Not only are the houses dilapidated, but there are also very few pedestrians on the streets, all of which speak of vicissitudes and desolation.

"We need to find a tavern."

"Um…"

Gu Tianchen folded his arms across his chest and spread out his right hand.

"I still need to get information when I go to drink."

"That's a really sad joke."

Resisting the urge to roll his eyes, Chen Junting shook his head, "Neither of them, but that tavern is the entrance to the City of Slaughter."

"The City of Killing..."

I knew they were going to a place related to gods, but this was the first time I heard Chen Junting mention the specific name.

But the Killing City...

Why does this name sound so familiar?

Recalling the many ancient books he had read during his time at Shrek Academy and Nine Treasures Glazed Tile Sect, Gu Tianchen began to search for the name of the place "City of Slaughter" in his mind.

soon…

"Wait, wasn't the Slaughter City destroyed by Tang San ten thousand years ago? I remember the book saying that the Sea God saw that the Slaughter City was full of sins, and Guanyin couldn't bear to see its suffering, so he exterminated it with the Snow Swan Kiss, making the sins disappear."

After saying that, Gu Tianchen looked at Chen Junting.

"It's like this there, should we still go there?"

"You know the effect of the Snow Swan's kiss."

Chen Junting asked Gu Tianchen in a declarative tone. Before he could answer, he gave his answer, "The blood in the Slaughter City is full of a toxin. Although it is not fatal and does not cause much impact under normal circumstances, under the effect of the Snow Swan Kiss, the toxicity of the toxin is amplified hundreds and thousands of times, making it highly toxic and turning the Slaughter City into a deadly place. But do you think this poison can affect the gods?"

Of course it's impossible.

Gu Tianchen gave the answer spontaneously in his heart.

Recalling the introduction of the City of Slaughter in ancient books...

This means that even if people die, the earth will not be destroyed.

"So what should we do after we get in?"

As if he had expected this, Chen Junting took out two array pattern soul guides similar to sachets from his storage soul guides. He threw one of them to Gu Tianchen, "This is the array pattern soul guide I made after observing the Qiluo Heart. It can isolate any toxins."

When Chen Junting said this, there was something cunning in his words.

Although it was the truth, he didn't say it in full.

Chen Junting was the one who observed, but he didn't have the ability to create the complex array pattern. In the end, it was Electrolux who took over Chen Junting's body and created it.

"So useful?"

"Tested by the Dugu family, no one is cheated."

Next, the two began to look for a tavern in this desolate town. Fortunately, the tavern was the only one in the town. So they soon found their destination in the center of the town.

But when the two pushed the door open and stepped into the tavern, they were almost choked by the turbid air and the dust in the tavern. So the soul power swept out, like autumn wind sweeping fallen leaves, sweeping away the turbid air and the dust!

They then saw that the remaining decorations in the tavern were not only black, but even the tabletops were covered with black marks. There was no doubt that these were bloodstains that had been there for thousands of years.

"Lao Gu, follow me."

Chen Junting did not stay for too long, and took Gu Tianchen straight to the bar of the tavern. He raised his hand and slapped the bar. In an instant, the bar, which had long been decayed by time, turned into flying objects and scattered, revealing the ground.

The hole in the ground also appeared before their eyes.

As a chilly wind blew up from the cave, Chen Junting told Gu Tianchen behind him, "Remember, you cannot use any soul skills in the Slaughter City. You can only rely on soul power and your own abilities, as well as the skills of your soul bones. But since our soul bones don't have any attack skills, prepare combat-type soul guides."

"No wonder you asked me to practice with the sword."

Only then did Gu Tianchen suddenly realize it. At the same time, he also thought of one thing, that is, there is a loophole here that can be exploited by soul guides!

can only say,
God Shura, times have changed!

Then, Chen Junting jumped down without hesitation, and Gu Tianchen followed closely and jumped into the hole in the ground. Their bodies were instantly surrounded by darkness, and they were completely immersed in it.

And they also felt that their own soul skills were suppressed.

After entering the darkness, they fell only a few meters before they were already on solid ground. The poison-killing sachets hanging around their waists also emitted a lavender light, enveloping them.

The two walked through the passage that extended diagonally downwards, and the cold air mixed with poisonous gas blew on their bodies. Soon, a city with four big characters "City of Killing" hanging on it, and a purple moon hanging in the sky, came into view.

"Let's go in."

Since there were no living creatures blocking them, Chen Junting and Gu Tianchen entered the city gate directly. What impressed them most was that this blue-purple world was filled with poisonous gas visible to the naked eye.

As for the corpse...

Yes, the ground is contaminated with toxins.

"Where do we go next?"

"Inner city, the killing field of hell."

Because all living creatures had died in the City of Slaughter, the two had no obstacles along the way and soon arrived at the Fighting Spirit Arena in the Hell Killing Field.

Gu Tianchen looked around and didn't find anything special.

But when he turned around, he saw Chen Junting setting up something on the fighting spirit stage. What he set up was actually a fixed-type soul guide shell. The "⑨" printed on the shell suddenly looked so terrifying and dazzling!
"I rely on!"

For the first time, Gu Tianchen cursed!
"You brought the ninth-level fixed-type soul guide shells!?"

"This is one of the life-saving methods given to us by the sect." Without even raising his head, Chen Junting placed the fixed-type soul guide shells, and then arranged a formation with an explosive function below.

After he finished the arrangement, he slowly stood up.

"I only know of one way to get to where we are going. But since we can't get there using the usual methods, we can only blow it up."

"You are this!"

Gu Tianchen gave a thumbs up with a look of admiration.

"Alright, stop talking about this and that." Chen Junting waved his hand, "Let's retreat to a suitable place first. After all, this ninth-level fixed-type soul guide shell will explode without blinking an eye."

"Row."

With the help of the flying soul guide, the two of them moved away at a very fast speed.

then…

"boom--"
