Chapter 341: Successful Completion, the Hell Road Opens!
After dismissing the black-robed man with a middle finger.
As Lin Yu turned and left.
After leaving the competition passage and entering the Hall of the Hell Killing Field, Lin Yu immediately saw Liu Erlong waiting for him in the hall.
"Haotian, you scared me this time. I almost thought you were going to lose..."
Seeing Lin Yu walk out, Liu Erlong, who had been waiting for a while, patted her chest with a relieved smile, her beautiful and mature face showing a trace of relief from surviving the ordeal. She walked over to greet him.
"Sister Erlong, don't worry about me. Didn't I tell you? In this Killing City, no one can defeat me!"
Lin Yu smiled, took Liu Erlong's delicate hand, and spoke softly.
"Alright! Alright! I know you're amazing."
"I thought your Martial Soul didn't have any attributes. When I heard that the Blood Shadow Duo's fusion technique could resist physical attacks, I was worried for you!"
"I didn't expect your Martial Soul to actually have attributes, and to top it off, it's a combination of lightning and fire. That's really rare!"
Seeing Lin Yu's confidence, Liu Erlong couldn't help but give him a playful glance before pulling him along, heading outside.
Time passed quickly, and over the course of two more months, Lin Yu achieved thirty more victories.
During this period, the King of Slaughter, furious and unwilling, sent many of his subordinates to try and ambush Lin Yu, but none of them succeeded.
As Lin Yu's consecutive victories in the Hell Killing Field drew closer to one hundred, the King of Slaughter became more enraged and considered personally intervening to eliminate Lin Yu, cutting off the threat!
But when he thought of the consequences—if he broke the rules and the Asura God discovered it, he would be killed—the King of Slaughter backed down.
He could only comfort himself that the Hell Road was not something that could be easily passed, and maybe these two wouldn't even succeed in the trials.
There was no need to break the rules over two threats that weren't necessarily threats at all.
And so, Lin Yu quickly reached one hundred consecutive wins in the Hell Killing Field.
During this time, to make sure he could challenge the Hell Road with Liu Erlong, Lin Yu paused his participation in the Hell Killing Field at the ninety-ninth victory, waiting for Liu Erlong to catch up.
Once Liu Erlong reached ninety-nine wins, Lin Yu and Liu Erlong achieved one hundred consecutive wins in the Hell Killing Field on the same day.
One thing to mention was that after Liu Erlong reached eighty victories, some of her opponents were able to overpower her—fallen Soul Masters who were much stronger.
Luckily, Lin Yu always helped her with spiritual impacts while observing.
So, Liu Erlong successfully reached one hundred consecutive wins without any significant danger.
...
On the day Liu Erlong reached her one hundredth victory in the Hell Killing Field.
With Lin Yu also reaching his one hundredth consecutive win in the Hell Killing Field, the King of Slaughter, who had been secretly watching the match, suddenly appeared!
"Congratulations, Golden Dragon King, for completing one hundred consecutive wins in the Hell Killing Field in less than a year, setting a new record for our Killing City's Hell Killing Field!"
A deep and sharp voice echoed from all directions on the ground.
A figure with black bat wings, clad in a luxurious black armor with blood-red patterns, silver hair, crimson eyes, and two small blood-red horns on his head descended from the air.
"King of Slaughter!"
"King of Slaughter!"
"King of Slaughter!"
...
On the audience stands surrounding the arena, as the King of Slaughter appeared, the crowd erupted into frenzied cheers.
In Killing City, if a person achieved fifty consecutive victories in the Hell Killing Field, they could become a star of the Killing City, given a title other than a number.
However, such people were still only stars. Unless they reached one hundred victories, they could never become the object of adoration for all the fallen in Killing City.
But the King of Slaughter was the undefeated ruler of Killing City, the one who had been in power since the first day people entered the Killing City!
Amidst the fervent cheers from the crowd, the King of Slaughter landed in front of the arena, his face carrying the calm and composure of a king as he hovered above the battlefield.
With a wave of his hand, the cheering gradually subsided.
Then, the King of Slaughter turned to Lin Yu and Liu Erlong, a fake smile forming on his eerie face.
"Golden Dragon King, and Red Dragon Queen, congratulations on achieving one hundred consecutive victories in the Hell Killing Field. You've brought back the passion I've been missing!"
"According to the rules, I will now open the Hell Road for you."
"However, the Hell Road is extremely dangerous. If you fail, both of you might die on that path. So, I offer you another choice: I will grant you the title of God of Slaughter immediately."
"From now on, you can freely enter and exit Killing City, and your status will only be second to mine. What do you say? Will you accept?"
Although Lin Yu and Liu Erlong had rejected his previous offer, the King of Slaughter still felt reluctant and, in his frustration, hoped that they would stay after their one hundred victories.
Upon hearing the King of Slaughter's offer, the crowd erupted in gasps of shock.
It seemed many fallen Soul Masters were stunned by the King of Slaughter's "generosity."
But to this, Lin Yu merely smiled coldly and mocked.
"Are you kidding? Giving us the title of God of Slaughter is like trying to fool us?"
"We came to Killing City not to play around but to challenge the Hell Road and gain the God of Slaughter realm!"
Lin Yu's words were direct and dismissive of the King of Slaughter's offer.
"The great King of Slaughter, there's no need to break the rules for us."
"Let's stick to the original plan and pass the Hell Road's trial. Only those who pass the test are worthy of becoming true Gods of Slaughter!"
Upon hearing Lin Yu's words, the King of Slaughter's expression instantly soured.
This kid... he truly is stubborn and hard to deal with!
But although the King of Slaughter was filled with deep hatred for Lin Yu, he still could not make a move due to the rules set by the Asura God. He could only force a smile and reply.
"Are you sure you won't reconsider? The Hell Road is extremely dangerous, and a single mistake could cost you your life!"
"No need to reconsider. Open the Hell Road!" Lin Yu replied, still coldly smiling.
The King of Slaughter's face turned dark with anger as Lin Yu's rejection once again humiliated him. He sneered, saying, "Fine! Since you insist, I will grant your wish, but don't die in there. No one will collect your corpses if you do!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a bloodthirsty aura and powerful soul pressure suddenly erupted from the King of Slaughter.
A chilling and evil red mist immediately poured from the King of Slaughter's body, sweeping over the entire battlefield, including the audience stands.
