"Where is this??? Nana, we..."
Before Jiang Xiaofeng could finish, he realized he couldn't sense Hu Liena's presence at all.
When he turned around, he found that Hu Liena wasn't even on his flying sword.
This was a vast plain, stretching as far as the eye could see, so Jiang Xiaofeng determined that this wasn't the outer area of the City of Slaughter.
But what he didn't expect was that Hu Liena, who had been with him, was no longer on his Zhuxian Sword. This was very strange.
Jiang Xiaofeng landed on the grass.
The soft ground told him that this wasn't an illusion.
Moreover, with his current abilities, no illusion could possibly deceive him.
"Where am I?"
Jiang Xiaofeng didn't know, but the endless expanse of grassland made him even more unsure of where to go.
Jiang Xiaofeng frowned. This was beyond his expectations. Could it be that everyone who left the City of Slaughter would appear in different locations on the Douluo Continent?
Jiang Xiaofeng sighed. It seemed that was the case.
Jiang Xiaofeng didn't dwell on it. He immediately stepped onto the Zhuxian Sword and flew in a direction he chose.
He flew for the better part of a day, but the plains beneath him remained unchanged.
This caused Jiang Xiaofeng to fall into deep thought.
"Infinite loop? At my current speed, I should have flown out of even the largest grasslands, but it seems like there's no change at all. I feel like I'm just treading water, unable to leave this grassland!"
That's right, the place where Jiang Xiaofeng was located was in an infinite loop. No matter how fast he went, he couldn't leave this vast grassland.
So, Jiang Xiaofeng stopped flying and sat cross-legged on the grass, restoring his lost soul power.
Here, his abilities were not restricted in any way, so he was certain that this wasn't the City of Slaughter.
After Jiang Xiaofeng recovered to his peak state, an aged voice suddenly rang out.
"Why aren't you going crazy? Why don't you have even the slightest bit of emotion?"
Jiang Xiaofeng laughed. You couldn't hold back, could you?
I knew I was brought here by some big shot.
Jiang Xiaofeng smiled, "I was waiting for you. I can't just appear here without a reason. It's very likely someone with a higher cultivation level lured me here!"
The old voice spoke again.
"Is that so? You're a clever child. My lifespan is coming to an end, and I will soon perish. I won't be around in a few years, so I've been waiting for my successor!"
Jiang Xiaofeng furrowed his brow, asking, "Successor? You've chosen me? Could it be you're the legendary Asura God?"
"That's right. The most direct way to become a deity is to accept the inheritance of a god. I will pass my Asura God position to you!"
Jiang Xiaofeng asked with some confusion, "Shouldn't the Asura God position require passing hellish trials to pass the Asura God's assessment? But it seems I've only just passed through the City of Slaughter!"
"The City of Slaughter is the first stage of the Asura Nine Tests, and you have already passed!"
"Hu Liena also passed. Why didn't you bring her in? And Tang San also passed; why didn't you choose him?"
The aged voice suddenly burst into loud laughter.
"Hahaha!!! You mean that little girl? Although she has good talent, she didn't play a crucial role in the Hell Road. But you, you were the one who solved the problem. As for the Tang San you mentioned, if it weren't for you, I would have indeed considered him as my successor. But you are better than him, so do you understand why I chose you now?"
Jiang Xiaofeng shook his head with a smile.
"Your choice is really hasty. Aren't you afraid that I'm just a soul master who knows how to play tricks?"
"Don't forget that I am a god, albeit only a god of Douluo Continent. I can see through everything here. That's why I am called a god in this plane!"
"Plane? Does that mean there's more than just Douluo Continent?"
"Of course. There are 3,000 planes under the God Realm, and each plane is a different world. Douluo Continent is just one of the 3,000 planes. You will naturally understand once you become a god!"
Jiang Xiaofeng nodded. It seemed that his arrival in Douluo Continent wasn't a coincidence. There was still so much he didn't understand. He wondered if his previous world was among these 3,000 planes, but then he thought better of it. It definitely wasn't, because his plane didn't have the concept of martial souls.
"Senior, since you've taken a liking to me and want me to accept the Asura God's trials, please tell me, what is my second test?"
Suddenly, a fierce wind swept across the prairie.
The vast grassland abruptly transformed into a scene of Asura hell.
A tall and imposing figure appeared before Jiang Xiaofeng, though he couldn't make out the figure's face.
Before him stood the Asura God.
The pressure emanating from the god made Jiang Xiaofeng struggle to lift his head.
However, at this moment, Jiang Xiaofeng's thoughts were:
"Holy crap, isn't this the pressure of a Soul Transformation stage cultivator? To be called a god in this world is just unbelievable!"
Hua Shenqi is indeed very strong, even a tier above the Nascent Soul realm.
You have to understand that countless old immortals are stuck in the Nascent Soul realm and can't reach the Transformation God stage.
Those who break through the Nascent Soul realm and reach the Transformation God stage are as rare as phoenix feathers and unicorn horns. In this world, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to call them gods!
Jiang Xiaofeng sighed a little. Before he saw the god, he was still thinking that this guy wouldn't be as powerful as those in his cultivation world.
But the result left him greatly disappointed. This god hadn't even reached the height of his previous life's Tribulation stage. This god was really overrated.
However, at this moment, the Asura God seemed to sense the fluctuations in Jiang Xiaofeng's heart.
"Why, do you think I, the Asura God, am not up to par?"
Jiang Xiaofeng quickly shook his head and said, "Senior, you jest. I'm just lamenting that I'm so lucky to have gained the favor of you, the Asura God. I'm still wondering if I'm dreaming!"
"The Asura God has his own unique ability, which is to judge all gods. As one of the most powerful deities among the gods, the Asura God's abilities are outstanding. Therefore, it's not that simple to inherit the Asura God's position. You are just the beginning of my selection. Whether you can successfully accept the Asura God's position depends on your performance in the upcoming tests!"
Jiang Xiaofeng nodded and said, "Senior, please tell me, what do I need to do?"
Boom!!!
A streak of blood-red lightning descended, striking Jiang Xiaofeng directly.
A voice, sacred and inviolable, resounded.
"Jiang Xiaofeng, a Level 60 War Soul King, has been selected through the City of Slaughter's trials. The assessment level is the Asura Nine Tests!!!"
Surprised and unexpected, right?
