Douluo Phoenix

Chapter 125 Leaving the City of Slaughter

After searching for more than ten days in the City of Slaughter, and even entering the room of the King of Slaughter, the three of them still found nothing. Helpless, Xiao Fei had no choice but to go find the King of Slaughter again.

Seeing Xiao Fei scoop him up again, the King of Slaughter was clearly displeased: "Phoenix Slayer, you've been searching all over my Slaughter City these past few days. What exactly are you looking for? Do you intend to destroy my Slaughter City?"

Xiao Fei shook his head: "Lord King of Slaughter, I absolutely have no intention of destroying the City of Slaughter."

"Since this is your territory, I would like to ask you, where is the Temple of Asura located?"

"The Temple of Asura? Hahaha, you actually want to find the Temple of Asura?"

Xiao Fei looked at the King of Slaughter, who was laughing loudly, with a puzzled expression.

"If you're looking for the Temple of Asura, then you don't need to look anymore, because the entire City of Slaughter is the Temple of Asura. However, you can only enter the temple with the approval of the God of Asura, and clearly, you haven't gained the God of Asura's approval yet."

Xiao Fei seemed to have thought of something: "Thank you for your guidance, King of Slaughter."

That same day, Xiao Fei, Yang Wudi, and Niu Gao left the City of Slaughter.

After watching Xiao Fei and his companions leave the City of Slaughter, the King of Slaughter continued to laugh loudly: "There are actually people who want to find the Temple of Asura?"

"What are you laughing at? Is it that funny?" A deafening voice rang in the ears of the King of Slaughter. Suddenly, the entire void turned blood red, and a gigantic red shadow, as large as a mountain, appeared in the void.

The King of Slaughter suddenly stood up and bowed to the illusory figure: "This humble one pays respects to the great Asura God."

The God of Asura seemed to ignore the King of Slaughter, and instead watched the departing figures of Xiao Fei and the other two with a hint of regret.

The King of Slaughter asked in a low voice, "Lord Asura God, Phoenix Butcher is a talented and strong young man, why didn't you bestow your inheritance upon him?"

"Those who haven't even entered the Asura Temple are not qualified to receive my inheritance."

"Lord Asura God, should I tell this person how to enter the Asura God Temple?"

"No need. Just do your job. This kid already knows how to enter the Asura Temple. The rest is up to him."

After leaving the City of Slaughter, Xiao Fei and his two companions found the Asura Divine Sword rather inconvenient, as it was far too sharp and could easily injure someone if they weren't careful.

He simply took out a furnace and a hammer, and spent half a day forging a scabbard made of deep-sea silver.

Looking at the freshly made scabbard, Xiao Fei nodded secretly. That makes more sense. What use is a sword without a scabbard?

Yang Wudi and Niu Gao seemed to be in a bad mood, sitting blankly to the side with their eyes vacant.

Yang Wudi suddenly asked Xiao Fei, "Is there any way we can rescue the old sect leader?"

Xiao Fei shook his head: "That's impossible. The City of Slaughter is the place where the Asura God inherits his legacy. Soul skills cannot be used inside. The King of Slaughter himself is incredibly powerful, reaching level 99. Even for me, the chances of winning aren't very high. Besides, there are other Title Douluo guards inside who can use soul skills. I might be able to escape unscathed, but you two probably won't be able to get away."

"Furthermore, Tang Chen's body has been corroded by the Asura God Power. Once he leaves the City of Slaughter, his days are numbered, and he will surely die."

"Isn't there any other way?"

"Of course there is a way. As long as two or more Gods of Slaughter attack at the same time, they can deal with the King of Slaughter. Moreover, they must have a healing-type Soul Master at the Title Douluo level. Tang Chen is too powerful, and his internal injuries are too severe. A healing-type Soul Master below the Title Douluo level probably won't have much effect on him."

"Or let a god save him, that would be fine too."

Niu Gao and Yang Wudi exchanged a glance, then said seriously, "Xiao Fei, do gods really exist in this world?"

"Of course there are gods in this world. Seagod Island is the place where the Seagod's legacy is passed down, and the Spirit Hall's Angel Temple is the legacy of the Angel God. Otherwise, where would these god-level spirits come from?"

The three of them fell silent. Niu Gao and Yang Wuli seemed to still be thinking about Tang Chen, while Xiao Fei was thinking about the God of Asura.

In fact, through his conversations with Tang Chen and the King of Slaughter, Xiao Fei had basically figured out how to enter the Asura Temple. It was through slaughter, endless slaughter. If he could massacre most of the people in the City of Slaughter, he estimated he could enter the Asura Temple.

Xiao Fei couldn't help but recall that in the original story, Tang San used a Snow-White Swan Kiss plant to poison most of the Slaughter City. Was that why he gained the approval of the Asura God?

Asura? Slaughter?

Xiao Fei couldn't help but shake his head: "Forget it, let's go back first and see if there are any other gods' inheritances? If not, we can come back to the City of Slaughter later. Anyway, we've already obtained the Asura Demon Sword."

Xiao Fei couldn't help but think to himself: "That old man, the Asura God, definitely knows me. Otherwise, I wouldn't have been able to bring the Asura Demon Sword out of the City of Slaughter. Yet he won't bestow his inheritance upon me."

Suddenly remembering something, he said to Yang Wudi and Niu Gao, "Seniors, in the City of Slaughter, in order to see Tang Chen and help your two clans resolve their worries, we promised the King of Slaughter that we would send 1000 people to the City of Slaughter. Could you two help us go to the nearby cities and find 1000 criminals to send to the King of Slaughter?"

The two couldn't help but complain: "You old man, you promised everything, so why do we have to do the work?"

After a period of communication, Xiao Fei and Yang Wudi and Niu Gao parted ways. Yang Wudi and Niu Gao promised Xiao Fei that they would get 1000 prisoners for the King of Slaughter. Judging from their intentions, they seemed to be planning to go to Haotian Sect first.

Xiao Fei shook his head. Anyway, the two of them were already titled Douluo. Even if they went to the Haotian Sect, they should be able to get out unscathed. Moreover, they had the Haotian Token and Tang Chen's letter, which could be considered as a final repayment to the Haotian Sect for their cultivation back then, and also as a way to resolve a tragic relationship.

This time, Xiao Fei did not return to the Elemental Academy immediately, but instead headed towards the Star Dou Great Forest.

This time, I miscalculated and failed to obtain the inheritance of the Asura God. There also seems to be no news about the inheritance site of the Fire God. But I have no choice but to go to the Star Dou Great Forest to find the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger. A fragmented divine position is better than none at all.

Xiao Fei originally intended to use the Crimson Nine-Headed Bat King for his seventh soul ring, but since he didn't receive the Asura God's inheritance, he had no choice but to change his mind and go find that tiger, and he had to do it as soon as possible.

Xiao Fei calculated the time and figured Tang San and his group should be back by now, having retrieved their loot from Seagod Island. He wondered if Bibi Dong would still be going on a hunting expedition. If Tang San had managed to steal the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger, that would be a real problem.

What Xiao Fei didn't know was that the current timeline had deviated significantly from the original story. Tang San was still undergoing assessments on Haicheng Island, while Bibi Dong seemed to be having an even more miserable time.

The Spirit Empire, Spirit City.

Emperor Bibi Dong was sitting on a high platform listening to reports from his subordinates.

"Your Majesty, our spies recently reported from the Star Dou Great Forest that something major has happened there. The Titan Giant Ape and Azure Bull Python that we have been planning to hunt have inexplicably disappeared, and some of the high-level soul beasts we are monitoring have also vanished."

"A conservative estimate suggests more than five, including a Titan Ape, a Azure Bull Python, and a Prison-Suppressing Elephant..."

Someone nearby said, "Could someone be hunting these high-level soul beasts recently?"

"The missing high-level soul beasts are at least 90,000 years old, and soul masters need their ninth soul ring to absorb them. It's impossible for so many titled Douluo to appear on the continent at the same time."

Emperor Bibi Dong on the high platform had a somewhat ashen face. The planned hunting operation had been postponed repeatedly for various reasons, and now those high-level soul beasts had all disappeared. Where could they find a 100,000-year soul ring?

"Investigate. Arrange for someone to investigate for me. I need to know the specific details of those high-level soul beasts, especially the Titan Giant Ape and the Azure Bull Python."
