章節 95: Hell Slaughter Arena Champion
I had stayed more than a year in the City, improving a lot. At first, I was a little influenced by the City with some episodes of madly killing, but little by little I started gaining control of it. The truth was that it never was my intention to hold back my actions, for whatever it would be, sinking me in the madness of this City, making its power my own.
People like Tang San may fight against his pure instinct, winning over their own Killing Intent and not letting be controlled by it, but my way was to let my Killing Intent increase, instead of fighting to control it, I would make it mine, changing it to my own way. The same as Bai, I would accept him, devouring him, making me stronger.
Today was my last match at the Hell Slaughter Arena, finishing my 100 matches I will be crowned as a Champion of the Arena and thanks to the deal with the Slaughter King, I would be free to leave and enter the City as I please.
I entered the ring like all the other times. I could my rivals, the last unlucky ones who would die for my victory. They were all of them kind of weak the strongest being a spirit sage and for his body, he wasn't even power-oriented. It was kind of a pity, I would have preferred a more epic battle to close my victories, like the one against Ripper or even a Hu Liena wouldn't be so bad, of course, with how much I improved these months, they wouldn't even my rivals.
My opponents, all had vacant eyes, already accepting their fate, knowing that today they would die. It was easily seen that they had already given up, without an ounce of fighting spirit. It wasn't my first match like that, as I keep winning more people stopped resisting. It arrived at a point that I needed to claim that all my kills would be clean and painless, preventing the people from suicide before even enter the arena, delaying my matches. I kept my words, killing them painless, this made people prefer to die under my sword rather than of their own, at least, they would be part of my legend. If not, I should have to force people to participate and not die, leaving them incapacitated and throwing them to the ring. My Intent was truly a cheat in this place.
Starting the match, all my opponent threw away their weapon and knelt to me, presenting me their next open. I swift swing with a little of Killing Intent enough was enough to kill them all, all their head falling on the floor.
"With this victory, we may great a new champion of the Hell Slaughter Arena, Slaughter Sword! Congratulations" said one young black-masked woman. The Slaughter King was also here, with a bored look watching the match.
The Slaughter King stood up "Congratulations, Slaughter Sword" he said coldly "I announce you as a new champion of the Arena, giving you the title of Deathgod, permitting you to leave Slaughter City. However, I might ask you, do you want to open the Hell Road?" he said sending a death glance full of Killing Intent
Suddenly, I felt different, my comprehension of Slaughter increased, easing the sensing of energy around me, I could sense a thin layer kept around me, I could also sense Killing and Death energy being attracted under my feet, they were forming a strange pattern, somewhat like a beast and at the same time a sword.
At that moment I realized, If I wanted I could open the Hell Road on my own, there's no need for the Slaughter King to open. Of course, Slaughter City was a place created by Asura God to find his inheritor a long time ago. How many years may the Slaughter King have? I don't think that he had even more than 200 years, this place stood here much before he appeared, and it was possible to access at Asura's test without his need. By completing 100 victories and obtaining enough Killing Intent, in that instant I could activate the Hell Road.
I decided to not do it, before the look of the Slaughter King I didn't dare, it may need some time to activate, even a moment was enough for him to kill me if he used all his might.
I looked at his eyes "I will not open the Hell Road" the sensation of being able to open the Hell Road disappearing from me "I thank your Highness for this honor"
I then left the ring and Arena, always followed by the Slaughter King's eyes, deciding that tomorrow I would leave the city.
Leaving the City wasn't as easy as entering. In my time here, I discovered that there were multiple entrances at Slaughter City, there was even one that resembled a teleport. The problem was that these entrances weren't exits if you tried to leave there was some barrier that blocked your way, trying to force out would result in your own blood escaping your body. As always, Slaughter City and its blood obsession.
Having already made my decision known, the next day I was woken by a black-haired young woman, surprisingly she was Black. Without much of a talk, keeping her cold face she guided me outside the City's wall. Then we walked to one extreme of the area that formed Slaughter City, there were two big stones. A little crack, imperceptible if not looking close, was between both stones, we walked through the crack arriving a little cave, it was formed by the typical red stone, with a red wooden door with an image of a three-headed bat at the bottom of the cave. Once inside, Black stayed still only saying "Wait".
After some time, the Slaughter King entered followed by 20 some people. "Good that you are here" He snapped his fingers. Suddenly the 20 some people fell to the ground struggling, shouts of agony left their mouth.
I concentrated, using my Skull Bone at maximum without activating Bullet Time, meaning that there wasn't any trace of me using it. I could see particles around the people flowing madly around their body, shaking trying to leave outside. After 3 seconds, blood started pouring from all their orifices attracted by the red door. I could see that particles leaving their bodies with their blood to be swallowed by the door, for some reason the same red layer as yesterday when I won the 100 matches appeared around me and the attraction force seemed to not affect me at the slightness, I also noticed the same as me happened to Black, she also had a thin red layer surrounding her.
Once all people died, the door started opening, pass the door only pure darkness could be seen.
"You have your exit. As you helped me, I would let you leave the city one more time. After that, if you want to return it will be to stay" said the Slaughter King coldly before leaving, only leaving Black and me there. For an instant I seemed to see Black glancing angry at the Slaughter King's back when he left, but it was so quickly that I wasn't sure about.
I walked to the door, before passing through I turned to Black with a strange look at my face. She kept her cool "I am waiting for your return" she said when I Passed through the door.
Passing through was a strange sensation that gave me some headache and forced me to close my eyes. When I opened my eyes again I was in another place.
I was surrounded by trees. If I must say, I would say that I was in Star Duo Forest, because of the big trees and vegetation around. I breathed profoundly, pure air entering from my nose "It's pleasant to breath pure air, how much time since last time"
"Crack!" sound was heart. I turned quickly to it, already with my sword at hand I swung it to the sound. The swing cut some brushes and what appeared to be a small squirrel, now a white ring floating over it.
"hararar" "grr" "danfw" multiple noises of different beasts were being listened, they sounded afraid and the noises were becoming more distant, they were running away. I looked around me "Of course, inside the City, it may be not so noticeable but outside it, this uncontrolled Killing Intent is too much" Maybe I should find some method to hide it away, but on the other hand this much pressure would keep in check Bai to return in control, it may better to let it be.
I expended close to 2 years in that City, my strength, no doubt had increase incredibly, the problem is about my spirit rank. As I entered the City, my spirit rank was 53, after this time I only gained 2 ranks, becoming rank 55. This is caused due to the low spirit energy in the City, normal considering that is a place known to block spirit skills. In that kind of place, unless you cultivate some bizarre cultivation method with blood and death, it will be impossible to greatly improve your rank. In my case, my sword art followed that path, but my spirits don't so I can't now change my cultivation.
Now it was the time to focus on cultivation, thanks to my new comprehension and my new vision thanks to the skull bone, I don't think that it would take much more than 8 months to arrive at rank 60.
