Hell Road. Blood-colored mist filled the air, and the blood pool below churned, seemingly ready to devour everything at any time.
Lu Feng and Xiao Wu walked on the narrow stone bridge, with only the boiling sound of the blood pool echoing in their ears.
Although she was a soul body, Xiao Wu had accepted the inheritance of an Asura Divine Trial. In such an environment, she not only didn't feel oppressed but was even somewhat excited.
"The Ten-Headed Fierce Yang Serpent is gone." Lu Feng stopped, scanned the surroundings, and frowned slightly.
Xiao Wu also looked around and asked doubtfully, "Is it really as you said, killed by someone?"
Lu Feng nodded, his tone carrying a bit of certainty. "It should be Hu Liena from Spirit Hall. She passed Hell Road and obtained the Deathgod Domain; the Ten-Headed Fierce Yang Serpent was most likely her prey."
Xiao Wu blinked, a trace of surprise flashing in her eyes. "Lu Feng, how do you know so much?"
Lu Feng smiled. "I stayed in the Capital of Slaughter for so long; the matter of Hu Liena becoming a Deathgod is known to everyone."
"Weren't you already conscious at that time?" Lu Feng asked doubtfully.
At this moment, a flush suddenly appeared on Xiao Wu's face. "You and that Zoe were doing that kind of thing all day. I found it too noisy, so I blocked my perception."
"Ahem, I was just testing the depths of the Capital of Slaughter." Lu Feng coughed lightly.
His expression turned serious, and he said indifferently, "The ancient exotic beasts I know of, besides the snake that was originally here, there is also the current King of Slaughter."
"King of Slaughter? Isn't he human?" Xiao Wu frowned and asked doubtfully.
Lu Feng smiled and said, "The current King of Slaughter is also a divine trial participant. But he failed, and his soul was controlled by a Nine-Headed Bat King."
"Nine-Headed Bat King?"
Lu Feng nodded. "Its soul possessed the King of Slaughter, but I guess it didn't give up its own body. According to what you said, the inner alchemy of an ancient exotic beast is no less than an ordinary hundred-thousand-year soul ring."
"But the King of Slaughter's level is fully ninety-nine. Isn't it too risky?" Xiao Wu worried.
Lu Feng rolled his eyes at her. "You also know he is level ninety-nine. Let's search the blood pool below first; maybe Hu Liena didn't recognize the goods."
"You want to enter this blood pool?" Xiao Wu looked at him with some surprise.
Although as a divine trial participant, Xiao Wu could withstand the bloody aura in the air.
But the blood pool at the bottom?
Just one glance at the resentment entangled there scared Xiao Wu back.
Lu Feng nodded, his tone firm. "Let's try. We're already here."
Before his voice fell, golden light flickered around him. A layer of golden armor covered his whole body, isolating the scorching heat outside.
He leaped and jumped directly into the churning blood pool.
Xiao Wu stood on the stone bridge, watching Lu Feng's figure disappear into the magma. She was somewhat worried but more curious.
She muttered to herself, "This guy, exactly how many secrets is he hiding?"
A moment later, Lu Feng leaped out of the magma and landed steadily on the stone bridge. His hands were empty, obviously not finding the Ten-Headed Fierce Yang Serpent's inner alchemy.
"Nothing?" Xiao Wu asked.
Lu Feng shook his head, his tone carrying a bit of regret. "It seems Hu Liena already took the inner alchemy. We are a step too late."
Xiao Wu sighed. "It seems we have to make a trip to Spirit Hall."
Lu Feng glanced at her, his tone carrying a bit of teasing. "Rabbit, I put so much effort into helping you. Besides working like a cow or horse for me, how else do you plan to compensate me?"
Xiao Wu was stunned for a moment, then lowered her head in deep thought.
After a long time, she raised her head, a trace of determination flashing in her eyes. "How about... I let Da Ming and Er Ming sacrifice themselves to you?"
Hearing this, Lu Feng's eyes widened, his tone carrying a bit of surprise. "Little Rabbit, are you serious?"
Xiao Wu's eyes were heavy, her tone firm. "I myself am a transformed soul beast, so of course, I know the difficulty of soul beast cultivation. Even reaching a hundred thousand years of cultivation, there is no assurance of facing the next heavenly tribulation."
"And then?" Lu Feng said solemnly.
From Xiao Wu's tone, he couldn't hear a trace of joking.
But, her two sworn brothers, two hundred-thousand-year overlord-level soul beasts, were just given to him for free?
Xiao Wu continued, "Whether it's a soul beast or a Soul Master, the endpoint of cultivation is becoming a god."
Saying this, she looked at Lu Feng meaningfully. "You are the most talented Soul Master I have ever seen. If you can't become a god, I can't believe who else can take that final step."
Changing the subject, she said, "However, you have to promise me one condition."
"What condition?"
"After you become a god, you must resurrect Da Ming and Er Ming and make them divine envoys. On this point, you must swear by your Martial Soul," Xiao Wu said seriously.
The corner of Lu Feng's mouth turned up. "Martial Soul? Which Martial Soul do you want me to swear by?"
Hearing this, Xiao Wu was stunned at first, then threw herself onto Lu Feng, waving her fists. "Ah! Smelly Lu Feng, go to hell!"
After playing around for a while, Lu Feng shook his head, his tone carrying a bit of helplessness. "My soul rings have long been planned. For the last two soul rings, I need Yin and Yang attributes, or Life and Death attributes.
"That gorilla is called Er Ming, right? He is earth attribute, not quite suitable for me."
Hearing this, Xiao Wu sighed instantly. "In that case, I can only do it myself."
As a transformed soul beast, although reshaping her body, her first six soul rings still didn't require hunting soul beasts.
For the seventh soul ring, she could use a God Bestowed Soul Ring.
For the eighth and ninth soul rings, she could take her two brothers.
One rabbit attains the Dao, snake and monkey ascend to heaven.
The two said no more and returned to the Asura Temple.
"Rabbit, carry this. Pure gold, my Soul Tool can't fit any more."
At this time, Xiao Wu was already carrying seven or eight packages on her back.
She pouted. "I can't carry anymore either. Lu Feng, isn't your sixth soul skill a Martial Soul space? Why not put them directly into your soul skill?"
"Right!"
Lu Feng clapped his hands excitedly. "Little Rabbit, so you also have times when you are smart."
Hearing this, Xiao Wu's mouth turned up instantly. "Hmph, you don't look at who Sister Xiao Wu is!"
Before long, only a statue and a few walls of murals remained in the entire Asura Temple.
At this moment, Lu Feng walked to a mural on the side and observed it carefully.
"This mural seems somewhat similar to what I saw in the Dragon King's Treasure illusion," Lu Feng muttered to himself, frowning slightly.
"Right, there was also that dream at the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well."
Lu Feng recalled the scene he saw in his dream before. That pillar of light reaching the sky seemed to have some connection with the murals here.
"Xiao Wu, come over and look at this," Lu Feng called out.
Xiao Wu walked to his side, her gaze falling on the mural, a trace of doubt flashing in her eyes. "This mural seems to be telling the origin of the Capital of Slaughter?"
Lu Feng nodded, his tone carrying a bit of contemplation. "Rabbit, do you think the Divine Position seems to be a pit?"
