Chapter 266: Fame in the Slaughter City: Exploding a Spirit Bone

To eliminate Nan Feihuang first, nine people lunged from nine different directions. Nan Feihuang's eyes showed not a hint of panic; his feet trod the North Star Immortal Trace Footwork, his figure flickering like a phantom as he flashed behind a Spirit Saint, struck with his palm, and used his soul power to shatter the opponent's heart meridian.

If soul skills could be used, nine experts ranging from Spirit Emperors to Spirit Saints would be a massive threat to Nan Feihuang. Unfortunately, the cultivation system of this world, Douluo Continent, is simply too extreme.

Except for a few, most people rely on their soul skills to get by their entire lives; once their soul skills are restricted, their strength drops by more than eighty percent.

Soul power is certainly important, but one must not lose their technique.

In truth, the goal of practicing with a weapon is to strike the opponent. The blow that hits the opponent is the "real," but before reaching that "real," one must pass through countless "voids."

These "voids" are technique; the more exquisite the technique, the shorter the time needed to pass through the "voids."

For the Spirit Masters of Slaughter City, Nan Feihuang's halberd technique could simply be called a dimensional reduction strike.

Facing several Spirit Saints alone, Nan Feihuang remained at ease, and within less than a few minutes, he had already slaughtered three more.

However, at this moment, he realized he might have fallen into a trap. The nine opponents had planned this long ago; in order to kill them, he had been lured to the edge of the arena without realizing it. Any further forward, and there would be magma.

To deal with Nan Feihuang, these nine people actually used their lives as bait.

It seemed they had agreed beforehand: whoever Nan Feihuang chased, that person would be the bait, and the one chosen could only accept their bad luck.

But there was one exception. While the other seven ran toward the edge of the arena, only he turned back while Nan Feihuang was busy chasing someone else.

It seemed he possessed a secret strategy for dealing with Nan Feihuang.

"Heaven Shaking Roar!"

The man moved. His martial soul was clearly a meteor hammer, yet he used a roaring-type sonic soul skill that generally only Beast Spirits could use.

Moreover, this soul skill could not only cause physical damage but could even briefly stun the soul; it was worthy of the name Heaven Shaking Roar.

At the same time, the remaining four Spirit Saints all attacked him, preparing to kill him. Even if they couldn't kill him in one blow, they intended to push him backward before Nan Feihuang's soul power recovered, then let the magma burn him to death.

To ensure they could kill Nan Feihuang, they really had designed this meticulously.

Unfortunately, they did not know that Nan Feihuang also possessed a soul bone.

And it was a mental-type External Spirit Bone, even rarer than a hundred-thousand-year Blue Silver Emperor.

A light flashed in Nan Feihuang's eyes, and his mental power immediately returned to its normal state.

"How can he use a soul skill? Could it be... a soul bone!" Nan Feihuang wondered.

There are only a few types of skills that can be used in this Slaughter City: self-created soul skills, domains, and soul bone skills.

This was clearly not a domain, and it was unlikely for a meteor hammer martial soul to use a roaring-type self-created soul skill. Thus, without a doubt, after excluding all impossibilities, the final one must be the truth.

"Very good, I've made a huge profit today. Not only your lives, but I also want this soul bone. Body Halberd Unity!"

Nan Feihuang is also a martial arts prodigy; he has already grasped the ultimate art of Body Halberd Unity, a realm that even his mother, Lan Xue, had not reached.

Speaking of which, he had Sword Douluo to thank for this.

Back then, when Sword Douluo fought a great battle against his mother, he had used the secret method of Human Sword Unity to counter his mother's Extreme Ice.

At the time, Nan Feihuang was watching the battle from below, and he saw the entire fight clearly. Back then, he had even secretly activated his External Spirit Bone, the Ghost Whistling Heaven Bead, to observe the flow of Sword Douluo's soul power during Human Sword Unity.

Afterward, he studied it repeatedly and carefully, finally creating his own technique of Body Halberd Unity.

In this state, Nan Feihuang's attack power would be increased exponentially.

"Take this!"

Several rays of halberd light flashed, and even the intangible sonic waves were scattered by the Fangtian Halberd. The four Spirit Saints who rushed up were all separated head from body. This was no longer the Ghost God Halberd Technique, but the Overlord Halberd Technique.

It does not seek exquisite moves; it is simply "one force overcomes ten masteries." In an instant, he let all his killing intent erupt, striking with the fastest speed and greatest power. Every blow was a lethal attack.

Within Slaughter City, under continuous slaughter, his Overlord Halberd and Ghost God Halberd could finally be considered to have truly entered the threshold.

"Hey, did you guys feel that just a moment ago? Such terrifying killing intent?" someone in the audience asked in disbelief.

"Nonsense, my blood almost froze from that materialized killing intent just now. Is this still 8733?"

In their eyes, Nan Feihuang was a character whose halberd technique was clever, but whose killing intent was never strong. Yet, at that moment, they felt from him a massive killing intent that was in no way inferior to those powerhouses who had already won over fifty matches.

Those with some discernment could realize that it wasn't that Nan Feihuang lacked killing intent, but that he had kept it all restrained. They couldn't understand at all how he had managed to do it.

To be in Slaughter City and still have such a clear mind—this youth was simply too miraculous.

*Swish! *

On the Slaughter Arena, the final ray of halberd light flashed, and the Spirit Master who possessed the soul bone finally fell under Nan Feihuang's halberd.

Nan Feihuang used his soul power to pull the man's head; that soul bone from just now should be in his head.

When it comes to things involving the soul, the probability of it being a Head Bone is higher.

Sure enough, an earthy-yellow Head Bone was forcibly stripped out by Nan Feihuang. Judging by its quality, it should be a soul bone of about twenty thousand years. If he wasn't mistaken, this soul bone should have come from a lion or tiger-type Spirit Beast. The soul skill was that Heaven Shaking Roar from just now; it could attack and control, so it could be considered quite excellent.

It contains a tyrannical aura, which is quite suitable for E Lai. It wouldn't be bad to take it back as a gift for him later.

Seeing Nan Feihuang accept the soul bone, everyone's eyes were filled with greed. That was a soul bone—a treasure that could be used to perform skills even in this Hell Slaughter Arena. Many times, this could save one's life.

"Hmph, if you want to snatch it, then come. However, you had better choose your own graves first!" Nan Feihuang said coldly.

He did not lower his voice, and everyone present heard him clearly. Only then did they remember that the youth before them was no soft persimmon; he was a ruthless person who had won fifteen consecutive Hell Slaughter battles in one month.

To this day, no fewer than two hundred experts had died under his halberd, many of whom had besieged him only to be killed in return. To want to snatch something from his hands—was that not just having a death wish?

Seeing that everyone who was restless had been intimidated by him, Nan Feihuang left the Hell Slaughter Arena calmly.

Every time a slaughter battle ended, he could feel his soul power increasing. He needed to go back to sort out the surging soul power within his body. As expected, in a place like this, the Ghost God Body can be used to nourish the body through battle.
