Douluo: Reincarnated in Danheng, a Unique Journey of Pioneering

Chapter 214 Tang Hao: Behaved

"The changes are indeed significant."

In the northern part of the Heavenly Dou Empire, in a familiar town, in front of a familiar tavern, Dan Heng looked at the overgrown, long-abandoned tavern and fell into deep thought.

After learning about the changes in the Killing City from Hu Liena, Dan Heng traveled south from the far north, thinking he would stop by and take a look.

However, Dan Heng definitely won't go back in. If he does, he'll probably have to tear that space apart himself to get out.

But if that happens, the entire Killing City, the most chaotic gathering place on the Douluo Continent, will be destroyed, which is not a good thing for the Douluo Continent.

However, as soon as Danheng entered the town, he sensed that something was wrong.

All indications suggest that there has been no human activity here for a long time.

The air was permeated with a bloody and putrid stench, and in some hidden corners, several rotting corpses could be found.

According to Danheng's assessment, these corpses had not been dead for long, but the stench they emitted and the degree of decomposition were abnormal.

Tang Chen doesn't seem like such a bloodthirsty person. If he came here to seek revenge on the Crimson Nine-Headed Bat King, he wouldn't have killed everyone in the town.

Moreover, Dan Heng didn't find any wounds on the bodies of these dead, so it can be roughly determined that they did not die from external force.

When Danheng arrived at the tavern where he had once entered the Killing City, the strong smell of decay made his expression even more solemn.

The tavern was empty; only large patches of dried blood on the walls and several pieces of mangled flesh testified to what had happened there.

The entrance to the Killing City was larger than before, and it was wide open, with a constant stench of blood emanating from below.

"Hmm? There's a seal?"

Dan Heng went forward to investigate, only to find that the entrance seemed to have been sealed off.

However, the purpose of this seal doesn't seem to be to prevent others from entering, but rather to restrict something from emerging from below.

In other words, this is a one-way seal. It's easy for people outside to get in, but once they're in, it's hard to say whether they can get out.

"It seems that quite a few changes have taken place within the City of Slaughter."

But this didn't matter to Dan Heng; he could still go down into the tunnel and do a simple exploration.

The strength of this seal is such that Danheng can freely enter and exit without being affected in any way.

Upon landing, Dan Heng sensed an inexplicable force eroding his body. Looking around, he saw a strange, scarlet mist permeating the entire passageway.

With a wave of his hand, Dan Heng caused the crimson mist in the passageway to dissipate instantly. However, soon after, a large amount of red mist surged out again from the depths of the passageway, inside the City of Slaughter, filling the entire passageway once more.

"It seems this is the culprit that made the town like this."

Danheng's body was surrounded by mist, but the effect that eerie red mist had on him was only about the same as when Hu Liena called out to him earlier.

I can feel it, but I can't do anything about it.

"At this intensity, anyone without the strength of a Soul King would probably be eroded and killed by this fog before even reaching the City of Slaughter."

After checking the seal again, Dan Heng chose to leave immediately.

The seal is so strong that unless someone deliberately breaks it, the crimson mist below will never be able to escape.

The town on land, once isolated from the crimson fog, should gradually return to its original state over time. However, it will certainly no longer be suitable for human activity.

About a week after Danheng left the town, the desolate town welcomed two more guests.

"Mistress, this is the place I told you about."

One of the men abruptly stopped mid-sentence. Looking at the dilapidated and desolate town before him, Tang Hao rubbed his eyes, wondering if he had come to the wrong place.

No, how could such a big town have become like this?

He led Tang San all the way north, heading towards the far north. His original plan was to let Tang San familiarize himself with the place first, and then bring him here after Tang San advanced to the Soul King level.

Could it be that something is wrong with the Killing City, given how the town is in its current state?

Tang Hao led Tang San to the tavern. The strong smell of blood and the scene made Tang San feel physically uncomfortable, and he vomited immediately.

Tang Hao arrived at the entrance to the City of Slaughter. After carefully examining the seal, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Thankfully, we can still get in here.

But is this place really suitable for Tang San to gain experience?

Tang Hao turned around and glanced at Tang San, who was vomiting, and couldn't help but hesitate.

Previously, I knew this place quite well and could give Tang San some guidance.

But now, does he really want to let his son into this place?
He doesn't want to lose any more of his family members!

"Let's go, Little San. There's no problem here. Let's continue to the far north."

Tang Hao picked up Tang San, who was kneeling on the ground vomiting uncontrollably, and walked out of the town.

"Father, what exactly is that place?"

After breathing in some fresh air, Tang San's complexion finally improved somewhat.

"The Killing City, a place filled with chaos and slaughter."

Tang Hao gave a simple reply, but in reality, he was still hesitant about whether to let Tang San come here in the future.

Ah Yin's departure had already deeply saddened him; what if something happened to Tang San after he entered the City of Slaughter?
It's one thing if he couldn't protect his child from injury, but if he personally sent his son into the tiger's den, then he would have no face to see Ah Yin!
"But that has nothing to do with you, at least not now. Your most important thing right now is to heal your injuries and improve your soul power. We can talk about the rest later."

"I understand, Dad."

In the end, Tang Hao couldn't bring himself to do it. Since Tang San awakened his martial soul, the experiences he had gone through over the years had brought about a significant change in his mindset.

If it were the old Tang Hao, he might have really hardened his heart and thrown Tang San inside to train.

But now, Tang Hao is truly afraid. He is afraid that his loved ones will leave him again, and he is afraid that in the end, he will not even have anyone to talk to!
He once thought he was still the invincible Haotian Douluo, but Dan Heng, who severed his arm upon meeting him, and Yue Guan and Gui Mei, who advanced to level 96, made Tang Hao realize that he was no longer the Haotian Douluo.

Abbreviation: Behaved.

"Once you cross the northern border, you'll reach the far north. Little San, get ready. You'll need to cultivate there to at least level 60."

"understand!"
