Chapter 245: Chapter 245: Battle with the King of Slaughter
Ever since the King of Slaughter heard Tang Chen's name, his entire demeanor changed. His face became more ferocious, and faint traces of killing intent seeped out.
Before the King of Slaughter could speak further, Yang Podi instantly summoned the Breaking Soul Spear in his hand and struck while the King of Slaughter was momentarily distracted.
However, the King of Slaughter reacted incredibly quickly, managing to defend himself at the last moment. His hands, like sharp claws, attempted to block Yang Podi's attack.
But this move of Yang Podi's was clearly premeditated, waiting for the King of Slaughter's brief lapse in focus. The spear thrust was powerful and sharp, as though it sought to pierce through everything.
The King of Slaughter's claws were injured, and he was forced back three or four meters. Blood dripped from his claws, and the wounds seemed difficult to heal.
The King of Slaughter roared in anger, "God of Slaughter, just to meet Tang Chen, you dare to ambush me?"
Yang Podi ignored the King of Slaughter's words. Nine spirit rings appeared on his body—five black and four red. The four red rings in particular radiated immense pressure, even causing the powerful King of Slaughter to feel greatly suppressed.
In that instant, the King of Slaughter erupted with a surge of intense crimson blood light, enveloping Yang Podi. It resembled endless killing intent, even stronger than Yang Podi's Killing God Domain. This was the Slaughter Domain, an evolved form of the Killing God Domain, unique to Tang Chen.
Two lights flashed on Yang Podi's body. One was the white glow of the Killing God Domain, and the other was the golden light of the Breaking Soul Domain. The endless sharpness of metallic energy and the aura of slaughter clashed fiercely with the Slaughter Domain of the King of Slaughter, as if competing for spatial dominance. The collision of these domains seemed to tear the space apart, similar to when Yang Podi's domain clashed with Qian Daoliu's.
However, Tang Chen's Slaughter Domain was clearly more dominant. Moreover, within the Slaughter City, spirit abilities could not be used without the Killing God Domain.
Yang Podi gripped the Breaking Soul Spear with both hands and charged at the King of Slaughter. The Killing God Domain and the Breaking Soul Domain seemed to merge into the spear, turning it a dazzling red-gold, exuding an enchanting brilliance.
As Yang Podi thrust his spear, it tore a rift through the Slaughter Domain.
The King of Slaughter swung his claws again, attempting to block the attack. However, this strike was far more powerful and swift than Yang Podi's previous ambush.
This time, the King of Slaughter suffered another deep wound on his hands. Golden energy lingered in the wound, corroding it.
The King of Slaughter's blood-red eyes were filled with disbelief. He hadn't expected Yang Podi to break through his domain head-on. The strength of that last strike was beyond his imagination.
The King of Slaughter growled in frustration, "God of Slaughter, I didn't expect you to have reached this level in less than ten years. Not only do you possess four hundred-thousand-year spirit rings, but your spirit power has already reached Rank 99."
Yang Podi sneered, "King of Slaughter, there's much you don't know. Today, I'll send you to the abyss."
The King of Slaughter let out an unwilling roar, raising his hands to his sides. Crimson halos rippled from his body, filled with corrosive aura and a unique energy fluctuation. Clearly, this was Asura Divine Power.
In an instant, Yang Podi's two domains trembled. It was evident that within Slaughter City, the King of Slaughter could unleash the full power of his Slaughter Domain.
The King of Slaughter laughed maniacally, "How does my Slaughter Domain feel? Compared to your Killing God Domain, my domain is the strongest in Slaughter City. Its anti-spirit ability effect is absolute. Here, my strength is unmatched."
"Even though you have two domains, they can barely contend with my slaughter Domain. Here, I am the ruler!"
Yang Podi paid no attention to the King of Slaughter's words and instead intensified his attacks. While the slaughter Domain was formidable, it only managed to match his two domains. He refrained from using his third domain, reserving it as a trump card in Slaughter City.
Yang Podi's figure flashed, appearing directly in front of the King of Slaughter. The Breaking Soul Spear emitted a faint dragon aura. It was his fifth spirit skill: Tyrant Dragon Destruction Strike.
After consecutive attacks, two more wounds appeared on the King of Slaughter. However, his aura became fiercer, with strange energy surging through his body.
Suddenly, intricate demonic patterns appeared all over the King of Slaughter, giving him the appearance of a descending demon god. A blood-red sword mark appeared on his forehead, resembling the Seagod's Trident mark that Tang Yuehua bore after receiving the Seagod's Nine Trials.
His entire body was shrouded in crimson light, blocking Yang Podi's fifth spirit skill.
As the crimson aura around the King of Slaughter grew stronger, his strength multiplied geometrically. His killing intent became purer, making him resemble the Asura God himself.
Yang Podi realized that the King of Slaughter had begun channeling Tang Chen's power, including the Asura Divine Power gained from his Asura God Trials.
Yet, Yang Podi remained unfazed. Even if Tang Chen himself stood before him, he wouldn't back down—let alone someone under Tang Chen's control.
Yang Podi activated his eighth spirit skill, Behemoth's Earth Shatter. His Breaking Soul Spear transformed into a massive golden spear, hurtling toward the King of Slaughter, aiming to pierce through him.
The King of Slaughter's face contorted with pain, as though struggling against himself. It seemed like two souls were battling for control.
Amidst the crimson radiance, the King of Slaughter's blood-red claws transformed into a massive red Clear Sky Hammer, smashing toward the Breaking Soul Spear. The hammer, imbued with immense divine power, clashed with the spear.
The Breaking Soul Spear shattered the Clear Sky Hammer. After all, it was a non-enhanced hammer wielded without spirit skills, no match for Yang Podi's superior skill, an ultimate hundred-thousand-year ability.
The King of Slaughter's pain deepened, and he gritted his teeth, "God of Slaughter, I can arrange for you to meet Tang Chen, but you must promise not to provoke me further and leave Slaughter City."
Yang Podi's expression turned cold, "I'm not here to meet Tang Chen. I'm here to ensure there's no more Tang Chen in this world."
With that, he wielded the Breaking Soul Spear once more, unleashing his eighth spirit skill: Golden Behemoth Strike. A radiant slash erupted from the spear, seemingly cleaving the space itself.
In response, the King of Slaughter's Clear Sky Hammer reassembled into a massive blood-red sword.
The King of Slaughter gripped the sword with both hands and slashed at Yang Podi. His entire being radiated crimson light, merging into the sword. The strike carried divine power capable of splitting the heavens and earth.
Their clash caused Yang Podi to retreat over ten meters, while the King of Slaughter was forced back two meters. The collision split the room, leaving them in what seemed like a vast plain or palace.
The solid ground was reduced to a massive crater over a hundred meters wide. Two figures, one golden and one red, stood within it—the golden figure radiant as the heavens, the red one exuding boundless bloodlust.
For the first time, Yang Podi's Breaking Soul Spear bore a crack, a phenomenon that had never occurred before.
After absorbing the nine spirit rings, Yang Podi's Breaking Soul Spear now weighed thirty-two thousand jin, possessing both extreme power and an unparalleled metallic attribute, almost comparable to a divine weapon.
However, the Asura Demon Sword in the hands of the Slaughter King was evidently a true supreme divine weapon, even surpassing the Sea God Trident.
The collision just now was a clash of soul power and divine power. Yang Podi even felt a deeper level of suppression, as though he was confronting a god.
At this moment, Yang Podi seemed seriously injured, blood streaming from the corner of his mouth, and a significant wound visible on his arm. This injury had been inflicted by the Asura Demon Sword earlier. What was even more terrifying was the peculiar energy in the wound, which corroded Yang Podi's body, drastically reducing his recovery rate.
Yet, Yang Podi grew colder and strangely more exhilarated, as if transported back to his time in the Slaughter City. This fierce battle aura with a strong opponent was his favorite.
Yang Podi summoned six additional spirit rings, bringing his total to fifteen. The six new rings were all red, Hundred-thousand-year spirit rings. His entire body turned golden, as if forged from molten metal.
The Slaughter King was visibly shocked. "How is this possible? How can there be so many spirit rings? Even with twin martial souls, it shouldn't be possible to use the rings of both martial souls simultaneously."
"Congratulations on guessing correctly," Yang Podi replied. "I do indeed have twin martial souls, and both can operate simultaneously. This is the first time I'm revealing my full strength. I hope you'll find it satisfactory."
After finishing, Yang Podi activated his soul power on his right leg, increasing his speed drastically. This was the soul bone ability of his right leg: Extreme Speed.
Once the soul bone skill was activated, Yang Podi's speed increased several folds. His Breaking Soul Spear became sharper and faster, with each strike carrying the force of wind and thunder.
The Slaughter King gripped the Asura Demon Sword tightly, using all his strength to fend off Yang Podi's attacks. However, the disparity in speed and strength between them grew increasingly apparent.
Even though the Slaughter King utilized divine power, his attacks only managed to leave a single wound on Yang Podi's golden body. But Yang Podi's first spirit ring would light up immediately, healing all injuries in an instant, restoring him entirely.
The process merely consumed some spirit power, which was negligible for Yang Podi, who possessed the Yin-Yang Balanced Twin Spirit Cores.
In just a few minutes, the Slaughter King's body was riddled with wounds. The blood-red aura surrounding him gradually weakened, signaling his inevitable defeat.
