Douluo Continent: The Eternal Order of the Azure Sky.

Tian Dou City receded further and further behind, gradually becoming a small black dot on the horizon. Ahead lay a vast, boundless wilderness, and at the edge of that wilderness, hidden deep within a remote town, lay the City of Sin.

If he's not mistaken, an old friend might still be living there.

Kong Tianxu came across the divide between life and death to see him off on his final journey.

Chapter 349 Meeting Tang

With Kong Tianxu flying at full speed all by himself, he could feel the temperature in the air gradually disappearing with almost every breath.

The arrival of this chill is not only due to the change in climate, but also stems from psychological and intuitive feelings, as if some huge and twisted coldness ahead is devouring everything.

A small town is already in sight.

The town doesn't look big, but as soon as you step in, an eerie chill envelops you from all directions.

Kong Tianxu seemed completely unconcerned about the peculiar chill emanating from the people around him. He casually picked a bamboo shoot from the edge of town and walked straight into a tavern in the town.

There weren't many customers in the tavern; only about 30% of the seats were occupied.

At that moment, everyone, including several waiters, looked up at the young man who had barged straight into the tavern.

It wasn't just because of his striking white clothes and silver hair.

Rather, it was because he was too intense, too pure, and too serene.

It was a tranquility that emanated from within, a calm that was consistent inside and out, without any hidden caution or ruthlessness necessary for survival in this place, like a lake that had been calm for thousands of years.

He was too handsome. There was no shortage of handsome men in the land of depravity, but compared to him, those physical appearances were too intense and lacked the inner strength to support them.

The air inside the tavern was very stuffy. All the decorations were black, turning the bright daylight into a cold and dark veil.

Several people's expressions began to change.

This is not a place for a young person like this.

The place where he is should be brighter and cleaner.

As a result, a blazing fire of crimson gold ignited in an instant in all those around Kong Tianxu, in all those who were eager to try their luck against him, and in all those who harbored ill intentions towards him!

The flames engulfed the entire tavern, and Kong Tianxu's figure vanished silently into the ground.

This is the gateway to the dark, murderous capital.

So he brought both light and death.

……

The City of Slaughter.

A black city. The thick black city walls, made of some unknown material, have a rough and cold surface and are extremely wide. Unless you see it with your own eyes, it is hard to imagine that such a complete city actually stands in this dark and sunless depths of the earth.

And above the city, a purple moon was hanging.

The moon was very low, seemingly less than 500 meters from the ground. Looking up, everything was black, like the night itself.

The pitch-black city gate gave people an extremely oppressive feeling, and the four large characters "Slaughter City" were hung high on the huge city gate.

A girl with a black veil sat behind one city gate after another, sipping her bright red Bloody Mary in her glass, her face cold but actually bored as she stared at the blue-purple world outside.

Since the Hell Road was shaken five years ago, and the King of Slaughter made a brazen appearance and then disappeared without a trace, the City of Slaughter has tightened its restrictions on the outside world, and fewer and fewer people are coming in.

The only newcomer during this period was a boring fellow completely shrouded in a black robe.

The only thing about the other person was... oh, only their tall stature, like that of the man in black at the other end of the long street, was somewhat noteworthy; otherwise, there was really nothing remarkable about them.

With few people around, she, the tour guide, naturally had a very relaxed schedule.

It's so leisurely that it's almost boring.

The girl in black gauze aimlessly swept her eyes across the long street, where people were either wildly indulging or so thin they were just skin and bones, hiding everywhere. She also looked at the two rows of warriors clad in heavy black armor and the tall, inconspicuous men in black on the street. Her gaze slowly moved upwards, landing on the eternally dark sky.

She saw a light.

In the pitch-black sky, a golden light suddenly flashed, like a dragon stretching its body and winding its way down from the flat, dark sky.

The girl in the black veil blinked hard.

Am I seeing things?

How could there be golden light in the sky above the City of Slaughter?

The sky here should always be black, and even the purple moon is just another manifestation of darkness.

As for gold, that should only exist on the surface of the earth.

In a daze, it seemed as if a figure walked through the city gate.

The girl in the black veil was immediately drawn to it.

He was a young man in white with silver hair, tall and slender, with every line perfectly proportioned, neither too feminine nor too cold.

What's most captivating are his purple-gold eyes, a color so pure that no fitting metaphor comes to mind.

Her eyes lit up—he was such a handsome young man.

A hint of regret flashed in the eyes of the girl in the black veil.

Such an unbelievably handsome young man, swaggering around like this, probably won't survive long in this killing city.

Sure enough, as he was walking, a figure suddenly stood up by the roadside.

A burly man staggered drunkenly out of the shadows on the street. He was a bald, shirtless man, revealing bulging muscles and crisscrossing scars.

"Oh, a new person has arrived."

On the street, a gaunt man let out a shrill, sinister laugh. His cheekbones protruded high, his eye sockets were deeply sunken, and his whole face looked like a dried-up skull covered with a thin layer of waxy yellow skin.

"Looks like there's going to be a new Bloody Mary. Hehe."

His laughter was sharp and piercing, prompting several equally thin figures around him to chuckle in agreement.

The bald, burly man ignored him. He tilted his head, sizing up Kong Tianxu with his cloudy, drunken eyes, and staggered toward him.

Just as he was about to crash into Kong Tianxu's arms, the bald man's face turned fierce.

Such a handsome man, it's a shame he withered away so quickly. I just don't know why he came to the City of Slaughter.

The woman in black veil sighed softly, a rare hint of curiosity stirring within her.

Immediately, her pupils dilated slightly.

Wait, a newbie?

Why didn't I know?

Did they kill them outright? What was the Dread Knight doing?!

The girl in the black veil's mind raced, but it was all too late.

The skinny man's sinister laughter still echoed in the air when the bald, burly man conjured a serrated cleaver from who-knows-where and swung it down at Kong Tianxu.

His movements didn't seem fast, but they carried a sense of overwhelming pressure. That was a powerful fluctuation of soul energy.

"Boom-"

Heads fell to the ground.

One hundred and one heads fell to the ground.

One hundred and one heads, mixed with corpses burning with golden flames, surged out of the deep passageway outside the city gate!

They were all dressed in black armor, and even their faces were completely covered by helmets, leaving only a narrow slit through which nothing could be seen.

One hundred of them still gripped their heavy swords tightly, which they had never parted from. Only one man's body lay buried in the carcass of a powerful warhorse, his black armor crackling softly in the golden flames.

The terrifying knights of the Killing City are basically all here.

Golden flames were burning all over them!

This is a sacred fire, a supreme fire powerful enough to burn away all the evils in the world!

Golden flames roared up from the bald man's hands and the skinny man's head, and countless eerie blood-purple and dark blue flames exploded wildly, causing the entire street around to spontaneously combust in the holy flames!

The once cold and bloody city now feels warmer.

"you……"

Surrounded by this seemingly boundless sacred sea of ​​fire, the girl in black veil slumped in a chair, too terrified to move.

She recognized the bald, muscular man, and she also recognized those terrifying knights.

The former has survived seven rounds in the Hell Slaughter Arena, meaning he is the only survivor who fought his way out of seventy people. The latter's leader is a Title Douluo who can use Soul Skills here!

But they were all dead.

Kong Tianxu stood in the center of that golden sea of ​​fire, his arms outstretched.

A faint smile played on his lips, as if something was flowing towards him from the cruel, all-purifying firelight.

Those who possess the divine attribute, especially those with a highly pure divine attribute like Kong Tianxu, will receive pure purification power from killing evil creatures and purifying them, thus restoring their soul power and enhancing their cultivation.

This is also the biggest trump card of the Divine attribute.

However, Kong Tianxu would never directly improve his cultivation level through such a risky method.

He gathered all the purifying power he had extracted from the remains of evil creatures into one place.

The girl in black veil looked at the white-clad youth bathed in golden firelight, her lips moved for a long time before she finally found her voice.

She didn't know why she spoke up at this moment, but she was simply asking the question that had arisen in her mind the moment she first saw him.

Why did you come to the City of Slaughter?

Her voice was hoarse and trembling, yet it sounded exceptionally clear in the silent sea of ​​fire.

To her surprise, Kong Tianxu actually glanced at her, seemingly quite astonished.

"Coming to the City of Slaughter is naturally for the purpose of killing."

As soon as he finished speaking, his gaze shifted from the girl in the black veil to the other end of the long street.

The sacred flames nearly engulfed everything around them, both living and material. The corpses of the black-armored warriors gradually turned to ash in the flames, and the black exterior walls of the street-side buildings cracked and peeled off under the high temperature, revealing dark red marks that had accumulated for countless years beneath.

The entire street was shrouded in a crimson-golden light, like a painting that had been set on fire, slowly turning to ashes.

But at the other end of the long street, on the bluestone that had been soaked with countless drops of blood, a tall man in black appeared to be unharmed.
