Chapter 120: Easily Achieving One Hundred Wins, Walking the Hell Road

~14 min read 2,740 words

Over the next dozen days or so, the Slaughter King never came to find him, and Lingxu continued living his life of winning one match every day.

Every one of his opponents was devoured by Lingxu using the Golden Twin Swords, and thus the age of the Golden Twin Swords was also constantly increasing.

As for the Slaughter King, it truly did not dare to come find Lingxu for the time being.

Tang Chen at this moment was a half-god entity, and the soul power in his body was at the limit of Level 94, but he was parasitized by the Blood-Red Nine-Headed Bat King; if he were to fight Lingxu using Tang Chen's power, it was very likely that Tang Chen would break free from control.

When Lingxu's power already surpassed that of the Level 94 Enforcement Captain Man'en, the Blood-Red Nine-Headed Bat King had to think carefully.

If it really came to kill Lingxu, it would need to mobilize Tang Chen's power, and the more it used, the greater the possibility of Tang Chen recovering.

Therefore, in such a dangerous situation, it was better to let Lingxu achieve one hundred wins and leave Slaughter City as soon as possible.

Seeing that the Slaughter King did not come to find him, Lingxu would not take the initiative to find the Slaughter King now either; after all, Tang Chen's body had not yet been completely eroded at this time.

Moreover, if they truly fought, he might not necessarily win.

Therefore, obtaining one hundred wins and then leaving Slaughter City was also Lingxu's current goal.

As for the Asura Sword in Tang Chen's hands, he would come for it when Tang Chen's body was more damaged, or when he needed the Asura Sword.

In the time that followed, Lingxu lived a life of going straight from his residence to the Diyu Shaluchang every day, and soon he had accumulated ninety-nine victories.

As for the one-hundredth match, Lingxu thought the Slaughter King would send out an expert to stop him, but it was still an ordinary opponent, allowing Lingxu to easily obtain one hundred wins.

Having entered Slaughter City for one hundred days, Lingxu completed one hundred victories, which was also the fastest record in the history of Slaughter City.

If not for the rule that one could only sign up for one match per day, the time Lingxu used would have been even shorter.

After killing the final opponent, everyone watching began to cheer for Lingxu.

Because they had witnessed a record of one hundred wins, and amidst everyone's cheers, Lingxu also absorbed the killing intent from the nine people he had killed.

He glanced left and right at this crowd of cheering people, little knowing that those who could witness one hundred wins would not live past this day.

Looking toward the sky, Lingxu said, "Slaughter King, you can open the Diyulu now, right?"

This sound from Lingxu was sonorous and powerful, instantly suppressing the various cheers in the arena; the Slaughter King could be said to have already become their faith.

Subsequently, a phantom appeared in the sky above; one could only vaguely see a human figure, and it only paused for a second or two before beginning to descend.

And this was the legendary Slaughter King, and also the time when he was parasitized by the Blood-Red Nine-Headed Bat King.

He was seen wearing a blood-colored robe, his entire body wrapped in a huge, high-collared scarlet cloak; his complexion was slightly pale, and his hair and eyes were also blood-red.

Looking at him from afar, he seemed like a blood shadow.

Descending slowly, except for Lingxu, everyone else began to kneel and kowtow to their Slaughter King.

"Number 6666, congratulations on achieving one hundred wins. Are you willing to stay in Slaughter City and become my deputy, a presence second only to me?" the Slaughter King said in that low voice.

Lingxu said directly, "Open the Diyulu. I have no interest in staying in Slaughter City."

Every time someone walked through the Diyulu and obtained the God Slayer Domain, the energy of Slaughter City would decrease by a fraction, which was not conducive to the stability of Slaughter City.

And in the last few decades, Lingxu was the third to obtain one hundred wins, which was also the most concentrated period in a thousand years.

If only one appeared every hundred years, then this would not have much impact on Slaughter City, but three within a hundred years would greatly consume the vitality of Slaughter City.

"Are you sure? The Diyulu is incomparably dangerous; going there is a life-or-death gamble, while staying in Slaughter City will grant you a highly exalted status. Are you sure you want to give that up?" the Slaughter King said.

If he could, he would want to kill this young man before him right now, but the strength of this young man before him already far exceeded that of the previous Slaughter City Enforcement Captain, Man'en.

So even for him, killing the young man before him would require paying some price.

If he used too much power, the person he was currently controlling might wake up.

The Diyulu was dangerous, but for Lingxu, this was nothing.

Lingxu said, "I am walking the Diyulu; I ask the Slaughter King to open the Diyulu."

The Slaughter King hesitated for a while, weighing whether to open the Diyulu or choose to kill Lingxu.

But in the end, the Slaughter King still chose the former and opened the Diyulu.

"Fine, since you choose the Diyulu, then let the Diyulu be opened." After the Slaughter King finished speaking, he began to concentrate his power.

Subsequently, Lingxu saw a human tragedy again; this time he had achieved one hundred wins, and there were truly quite a few people who came to watch.

This included three other experts who had achieved over fifty wins; the soul power of all three exceeded Level 85, and they were very promising in Slaughter City; barring any accidents, as long as they were cautious, they could also achieve one hundred wins.

Perhaps in the future, they could even accept the Slaughter King's recruitment and become a part of Slaughter City.

But at this moment, they were all to become nourishment for opening the Diyulu.

Countless people began to wail, because they had drunk the Xuesheng Mali, so they were under the control of the Slaughter King.

The Xuesheng Mali in Slaughter City was poisonous and would lead to being controlled by the Slaughter King.

Therefore, among these people, even if they achieved one hundred wins, they should not think about walking through the Diyulu.

The Diyulu was right under the slaughter platform at Lingxu's feet, but after it opened, Lingxu also retreated to the side.

Gradually, the wailing stopped, and the Diyulu was successfully opened.

The Slaughter King said, "The Diyulu has been opened; you may enter."

Lingxu nodded and said, "Thank you, we will see each other again in a while."

After saying this, Lingxu leaped down. Hearing this sentence from Lingxu, the Slaughter King was instead somewhat confused. What did "see each other again in a while" mean? Was he planning to come back?

It would be best never to see him again, and for him to die on the Diyulu and become nourishment for Slaughter City.

At this moment, Lingxu's body began to descend; the Diyulu was right beneath Slaughter City.

His body fell at least a hundred meters before landing on a platform with a diameter of thirty-four meters.

Lingxu was not like Tang San and Hu Liena and the others, who fell down and ended up in a coma here; it was fortunate they were important characters, otherwise they would definitely have died here.

After all, right on this platform, Lingxu saw several skeletons.

So, as long as one entered, there was danger, and to fall into a coma here—one had to say they were very lucky.

And at this time, Lingxu saw the bats on the cliff walls of Slaughter City.

Lingxu took one look at this long Diyulu, and then ran out.

After running for two or three kilometers, Lingxu did not encounter any danger.

But Lingxu had already discovered that a large number of bats were coming toward him.

These bats actually counted as Spirit Beasts; some had a cultivation of several decades, and others had a cultivation of a century.

Of course, there were also those with a cultivation of a millennium.

These were actually all Spirit Beasts?

Watching the dense, countless bats swarming toward him, Lingxu conceived a plan.

He then released the Golden Twin Swords; such a good opportunity was the perfect time to increase the age of his external spirit bone, the Golden Twin Swords.

Even a mosquito is meat no matter how small; even if each one only added a few years, a few decades, or at most a century, by absorbing several thousand or ten thousand of them, the Golden Twin Swords would have a chance to reach two hundred thousand years.

If they reached two hundred thousand years, the power of the external spirit bone's skill would rise to a new level.

However, for better absorption and devouring, Lingxu activated the external spirit bone Golden Armor to wrap himself tightly, and then released the Golden Twin Swords.

Letting these bats land on Lingxu's body would not cause him a shred of harm.

Lingxu found a relatively sturdy platform.

Then the Golden Twin Swords absorbed to their heart's content; the age of these bats was not very high, and he could basically absorb one every few seconds, with the two Golden Swords doubling the efficiency.

10 years

25 years

……

……

The bats had almost completely surrounded Lingxu's body.

Just like this, Lingxu did not know how long it had lasted, but his Golden Twin Swords had already increased from 168,960 years to 199,999 years, just one year short of reaching two hundred thousand years.

However, reaching this point, he had encountered a bottleneck; it could not be completed by just absorbing these small bats alone.

Lingxu had not stopped; he had just been devouring and absorbing, but there had been no further growth.

Then, after so many bats had disappeared, he was discovered by the king of this group of bats, the Dark-Gold Three-Headed Bat King, which was a Spirit Beast at the ten-thousand-year level or above.

And it also possessed a terrifying skill: Regeneration.

Lingxu used the system to check and found that the age of this Dark-Gold Three-Headed Bat King, which was watching him from a hundred meters away, had already exceeded fifty thousand years.

No wonder Tang San and Hu Liena could not resolve it; it had a certain level of strength.

However, the reason they did not resolve it was still because the environment of Diyulu was more suitable for these bats to fight than for humans.

Secondly, the number of small bats under the Dark-Gold Three-Headed Bat King was simply too high.

If they were dealing with this Dark-Gold Three-Headed Bat King alone, Tang San and Hu Liena would still have had a chance.

With this Dark-Gold Three-Headed Bat King here, Lingxu also lost interest in these small bats.

Moreover, the current number was clearly not as high as before.

Whoosh...

The Dark-Gold Three-Headed Bat King seemed to be prepared and charged directly at Lingxu.

Facing a fifty-thousand-year Spirit Beast, Lingxu swung his Golden Sword once.

A streak of sword light flashed by, directly severing half of the Dark-Gold Three-Headed Bat King's wing; due to losing one side of its wing, it could no longer fly and could only land on Diyulu.

Then that terrifying Regeneration ability began to manifest, as the severed wing was growing back frantically.

Seeing this, Lingxu flashed to the side of the Dark-Gold Three-Headed Bat King, and as he arrived, the Golden Twin Swords simultaneously stabbed into its body and rapidly began to devour.

This power of devouring made the Dark-Gold Three-Headed Bat King begin to struggle, and Diyulu also began to show cracks, appearing to be on the verge of collapse.

Bang...

Diyulu collapsed; wings extended from behind Lingxu, and the Golden Twin Swords firmly clamped onto the Dark-Gold Three-Headed Bat King, dragging it up.

Its body began to shrink; even with its terrifying Regeneration ability, it could not compare to the devouring and absorbing ability of Lingxu's Golden Twin Swords.

In fact, the Golden Twin Swords did not have such powerful devouring capabilities at the beginning, but as their age increased, the devouring capabilities of the Golden Twin Swords also strengthened.

After about half an hour, the Dark-Gold Three-Headed Bat King disappeared without a trace.

And after the Dark-Gold Three-Headed Bat King disappeared, the entire Diyulu became quiet.

The other bats also flew away from Lingxu, not daring to come forward to provoke him.

At this moment, Lingxu glanced at the age of the Golden Twin Swords in the system and finally revealed a smile.

The goal had been achieved.

The External Spirit Bone Golden Twin Swords finally reached 200,000 years; when it was 100,000 years, Lingxu broke through his limits and absorbed quite a few ten-thousand-year Spirit Beasts, several of them.

But this breakthrough to 200,000 years seemed much faster, only requiring the absorption of one Dark Gold Three-Headed Bat King.

Of course, there were other small-fry bats, but these could be considered negligible during the breakthrough, or perhaps it was a case of many a little makes a mickle.

However, this Dark Gold Three-Headed Bat King was different from other Spirit Beasts.

And after the Dark Gold Three-Headed Bat King died, the Slaughter King of Slaughter City sensed it too.

To be precise, the Blood-Colored Nine-Headed Bat King.

"Damn it, this brat actually killed it." The Slaughter King slammed his hands down in anger, shattering the stone walls on both sides directly.

At this moment, Lingxu was already traversing Diyulu incredibly smoothly; if it followed the original work, the only thing left below would be the most formidable Ten-Headed Fierce Sun Snake.

But one cannot encounter the Ten-Headed Fierce Sun Snake every single time.

Judging from the original novel, at least Tang Hao and Bibi Dong did not encounter it when they walked this Diyulu.

If he happens to meet it, that would be perfect; Lingxu could absorb another exotic species and obtain its inner core.

This inner core could also be used by others, being best for the seventh Spirit Ring of a fire-attribute Spirit Master, and it might even have the effect of evolving a martial soul.

Lingxu continued forward, and after walking for who knows how long, he finally sensed unusual movements on both sides of Diyulu.

"It's here! Is it the Ten-Headed Fierce Sun Snake?" Lingxu looked over.

Lingxu used the system to scan it, but it seemed unable to display its age.

With a cry like that of a wailing infant, a large snake blocked Lingxu's path.

It was seen to have a pair of fiery red eyes, though the eyes were not particularly huge.

Its dark red snake body was massive, and there were a total of nine protrusions on the snake's head and back.

Each protrusion looked like a bright red mushroom, and it seemed as if blood were flowing inside them. The snake's abdomen was particularly large, bulging on the narrow path, and its body length was approximately over fifteen meters.

If this isn't the Ten-Headed Fierce Sun Snake, then what is?
