Chapter 216: Slaughter King
Slaughter City.
It was still the sa as before, filled with a pervasive scent of blood.
Su Mo looked down at the city, which seed completely unchanged, and a hint of nostalgia flickered in his eyes.
Back then, he had stayed here for over two years to complete the trials of Slaughter City.
Gazing at the familiar city, Su Mo hovered silently in the skies above, with no intention of descending.
Buzz—
Su Mo quietly released his soul power, and a trendous soul pressure instantly enveloped the entirety of Slaughter City.
Others might not have sensed it, but the Slaughter King within the city imdiately perceived Su Mo's aura.
"Which Killing God is it?"
The Slaughter King's eyes snapped open in surprise, a trace of seriousness flashing within them.
He could tell the one who ca was a Killing God, but the aura felt unfamiliar. He couldn't determine exactly who it was.
Still, no matter which Killing God it was, their presence was undeniably powerful.
And he had no idea what their purpose was.
Whoosh—
Regardless of who had returned, the Slaughter King couldn't just sit by—especially when the other party was making such a bold display. It was clearly a provocation.
In Slaughter City, he had never feared anyone.
Even if it was a Killing God, all that ant was they weren't restricted by the soul ring rules and could use soul skills freely.
Whoosh—
A red shadow shot upward from within Slaughter City and soon appeared before Su Mo.
"It's you!"
The Slaughter King was stunned upon recognizing the figure.
He hadn't expected that this overwhelmingly powerful presence belonged to Su Mo.
Though Su Mo had passed the Slaughter City trial, his soul level back then was far inferior. Now, the Slaughter King couldn't even discern Su Mo's soul power level.
"Slaughter King, I hope you've been well."
Su Mo greeted him calmly.
"Why have you co back?"
The Slaughter King had no ti for pleasantries and cut straight to the point.
"I heard there's a god's inheritance hidden here, so I ca to take a look."
"Since you've ruled this place for so many years, surely you'd know sothing about it?"
Su Mo's tone carried a hint of amusent as he looked at the Slaughter King.
The Slaughter King's eyes narrowed slightly at Su Mo's words.
So the guy had co for the god's inheritance.
Damn it—who leaked that there was a god's inheritance here?
He cursed silently, knowing better than anyone the truth behind the so-called inheritance. The body he had taken over originally belonged to Tang Chen, a spirit master who had received a god's inheritance.
And Tang Chen's inheritance trial was even fairly advanced.
That divine weapon, the Asura Blood Sword, was still in his possession!
"It's all just rumors. I've been here for years and never heard of such a thing."
The Slaughter King outright denied Su Mo's claim.
He had no intention of admitting it.
"Are you trying to disrespect ? As the Slaughter King, how could you not know!"
Su Mo's face imdiately darkened at the response.
"I said there's nothing, so there's nothing. If you don't believe , go search for it yourself."
The Slaughter King's expression turned equally cold at Su Mo's threat.
He wasn't about to tell Su Mo anything, but he also didn't want to fight him, as he could clearly sense the danger Su Mo posed.
So he told Su Mo to look for it on his own.
After all, the Asura God's inheritance trial was with him—there was no way Su Mo would find it.
"You clearly know sothing, so I'm not going to bother searching."
"You may choose to stay silent—but let's see whether my Soul-Hunting Spear agrees."
Su Mo let out a cold laugh at those words. With a flick of his hand, the Soul-Hunting Spear appeared in his grasp.
All that talk with the Slaughter King had just been him toying around.
"Arrogant! You're taking things too far!"
"You think this king is afraid of you?!"
Boom—
The current Slaughter King was a soul beast—a beast by nature. How could he endure such provocation from Su Mo? With a furious snort, his soul power exploded forth as he charged at Su Mo.
"Overlord Slash!"
Seeing the Slaughter King enraged, Su Mo no longer wasted words. He slashed out with his Soul-Hunting Spear, unleashing a powerful soul force-infused strike straight toward the Slaughter King.
Whoosh—
Faced with Su Mo's attack, the Slaughter King spread the wings on his back and instantly dodged to the side, narrowly avoiding the strike.
Su Mo gave chase, spear in hand, continuing the pursuit.
At first, however, Su Mo didn't use his full strength.
The Slaughter King, anwhile, was subtly shifting the battlefield, leading their fight gradually out of Slaughter City.
Su Mo silently played along. The two clashed mid-air, exchanging blows until they had left the confines of the city.
The Slaughter King didn't want their battle to affect Slaughter City, and the sa was true for Su Mo.
After all, the spirit masters within the city were being saved for Bibi Dong.
"Die!"
Now that they were clear of Slaughter City, the Slaughter King no longer held back. His attacks instantly beca more ferocious as he lunged toward Su Mo.
"Courting death!"
"Ti-Space Domain: Life and Death Arena!"
Seeing the sudden outburst, Su Mo sneered coldly.
Buzz—
He then unleashed the Life and Death Arena. Behind him, a black vortex began spinning, rapidly expanding and surging toward the Slaughter King.
"What is this?"
"Not good..."
The Slaughter King's expression changed as he saw the swirling black vortex sweeping toward him from Su Mo.
He didn't know what the vortex was, nor did he sense much danger—it didn't seem to carry much offensive force.
But instinctively, he felt that getting caught in it would be very bad.
Sensing the danger, he imdiately tried to halt his advance and turn around to escape.
Buzz—
But it was too late. Worse yet, the Slaughter King had rushed right into it himself. Su Mo didn't even need to take the initiative to restrain him—the Life and Death Arena instantly enveloped him.
Whoosh—
In the next mont, both Su Mo and the Slaughter King vanished, as if they had never been there at all.
Ever since mastering the Life and Death Arena, Su Mo had found it incredibly useful. Against single opponents, it was practically a divine skill.
Not only did it enhance all of his abilities within, it also prevented enemies from escaping.
"Welco to my Life and Death Arena. If you want to leave, you'll have to kill first!"
In a cheerful mood, Su Mo grinned and introduced the domain to the Slaughter King.
The Slaughter King's face twisted in displeasure the mont he heard those words.
