Douluo Continent: My Martial Soul is a Simulator

Chapter 30 Skeletons

Having anticipated this, Mu Ge remained calm. He immediately surveyed the terrain below, then grabbed Bibi Dong with one arm and they landed precisely on the ground together.

Before them lay a vast underground space, stretching as far as the eye could see, crisscrossed by numerous stone paths, each with barbs on both sides, resembling segments of an animal's spine.

These hellish paths are forged from sections of bones, making them look incredibly terrifying.

Below, about a kilometer away, you can still see rolling lava, the same color as the Yellow Springs Dew.

No, what's below is the Yellow Spring Dew. The soul power absorbed and the blood collected by the Hell Slaughter Arena all gather below. They are also the energy source of the entire Slaughter City, maintaining the operation of the Slaughter City.

Looking up, the hole that had caused them to fall was no longer there.

"It seems the only way out of here is through this hellish path!"

At this moment, Bibi Dong also broke free from Mu Ge's embrace and looked around at her surroundings.

"Okay, let's go up there!"

Muge nodded, and then took the lead towards the entrance to the Hell Road above.

There is more than one path to hell.

Muge knew that it was better to go up there; the closer they got to the molten lava below, the more dangerous it would be.

However, as you go further down, the path to hell will continue to extend downwards, so it doesn't seem to make much difference.

"Why go upstairs instead of downstairs?"

Upon seeing this, Bibi Dong quickly caught up with Mu Ge and asked him questions.

"Nobody knows which route is easier, so let's just pick one!"

"I prefer walking uphill to downhill; the view is much wider!"

Mu Ge smiled faintly, then stepped onto the road to hell and continued walking along it.

Upon hearing Mu Ge's words, Bibi Dong's beautiful eyes flickered slightly, but she didn't ask anything further and followed closely behind.

From Mu Ge's words, Bibi Dong realized more clearly that Mu Ge was a person with a strong desire for control.

Could such a person be used by me?

Should we just go out and kill him?

Watching Mu Ge's retreating figure, Bibi Dong hesitated.

Thinking of all the humiliations Mu Ge had caused her over the past two years, Bibi Dong really wanted to kill Mu Ge and take revenge as soon as she got out, but she also felt that it would be too easy for Mu Ge.

"No rush. Once we get out, I can kill him whenever I want. As long as he's still of use, let's keep him alive for now!"

In the end, Bibi Dong still couldn't bring herself to kill Mu Ge after leaving. She figured it wouldn't be too late to kill Mu Ge if she felt he was no longer useful to her.

She was no match for Mu Ge in the City of Slaughter, but once she got out, she refused to believe that she couldn't handle a mere Soul King.

Mu Ge, walking ahead, naturally had no idea what Bibi Dong behind him was thinking.

But it doesn't matter, since he has never completely trusted Bibi Dong and has always been on guard.

And so, Mu Ge and Bibi Dong walked one after the other on the Road to Hell, passing one bridge after another. With each bridge they passed, the direction of the Road to Hell changed, becoming winding and circuitous.

I don't know how long we walked, but there was still no danger around us.

"Is this the road to hell? There's no danger at all, it's just getting hotter and hotter around us!"

This abnormal phenomenon undoubtedly made Bibi Dong uneasy.

Everyone says the road to hell is dangerous, but when you walk on it without any danger happening, it can make you even more uneasy.

The unknown is the most frightening thing.

"That means we're getting closer and closer to the molten lava below!"

Mu Ge explained, "At first we were about a thousand meters away from the lava, but now we're only nine hundred meters away without even realizing it!"

"So that's how it is! The path to hell we've traversed, though seemingly flat, is actually slightly sloping!"

Upon hearing Mu Ge's words, Bibi Dong immediately guessed the reason.

"So it seems the danger of the Road to Hell comes from the molten lava below? I feel the malevolent energy within me growing stronger!"

Soon after, Bibi Dong also noticed the abnormality in herself. The amount of baleful energy she absorbed here was several times faster than in the City of Slaughter.

"It's alright, let's clean it up first!"

A red light flashed slightly in Mu Ge's eyes, and he also realized that the evil energy in his body had accumulated more than usual.

After summoning his martial spirit and switching to the Book of Healing, Mu Ge quickly cast Healing Light on himself and Bibi Dong, clearing the evil energy from their bodies.

Although it's not serious yet, Mu Ge knows that if they continue, there will definitely be battles. There might not be time later, so it's better to clear away the accumulated evil energy as soon as possible.

Noticing that the evil energy within her body had been completely dispelled, and feeling refreshed, Bibi Dong was filled with awe. It was only because of Mu Ge that she realized she hadn't known how to deal with the evil energy within her body if she were alone.

She might not be able to deal with the malevolent energy.

Thinking about it this way, Bibi Dong couldn't help but feel fortunate that Mu Ge was still by her side; this bastard was still quite useful.

Of course, Bibi Dong didn't know that even without Mu Ge, she could have solved the problem of the evil energy on her own.

The evil aura affects a person's mind and can easily lead them to demonic possession, but Bibi Dong was already corrupted, so the evil aura didn't have much of an effect on her.

The reason she almost lost control before was because she had accumulated too much evil energy over the past six months and had not drunk the Yellow Spring Dew to alleviate it.

In the original story, Bibi Dong escaped on her own.

It is evident that Bibi Dong did not lose control even after traversing the Path of Hell.

As for the addictive nature of Huangquan Dew, given Bibi Dong's patient and tolerant nature, overcoming it is clearly not a problem.

Tang Hao also overcame the addictive nature of Huangquan Dew through extraordinary willpower.

Based on her true strength, Hu Liena in the original novel was the one who was truly unable to pass the Road to Hell. She only passed it with Tang San's help, making her the most undeserving of the title of God of Slaughter.

"That is..."

Just then, Bibi Dong suddenly noticed something unusual in front of the bridge pavilion.

She saw it too; it was a skeleton.

The two went forward and saw that it was indeed a skeleton, and a human skeleton at that.

Beneath the right hand bone of the skeleton, there appears to be some writing.

Mu Ge knew what characters were under the hand bones and wasn't curious at all, so he had no intention of turning them over.

When Bibi Dong saw that Mu Ge remained unmoved, she couldn't resist her curiosity, so she squatted down, removed the other person's hand bones, and saw a few words on the ground.

"You've ruined my life!"

Bibi Dong, who read the words on the ground, felt a chill run down her spine for some reason.
