Soul Emperor Awakening

Chapter 159 - 158: Can Win

God of Slaughter!

What an imperious name. It rang in Lin Xuan’s mind like a great bell, leaving him reeling. It was a domineering name, and what’s more, it struck a chord with all sorts of memories in his head.

No one knew the God of Slaughter’s real name; he had named himself the God of Slaughter! Everyone called him that. If not tens of millions, at least millions had died at his hand. Although he hadn’t killed them personally, it was all the result of his machinations.

As a result, the resentful energy of all those who were killed gathered around him, so calling him the God of Slaughter was no exaggeration. Since he called himself the God of Slaughter, everyone else followed suit.

The God of Slaughter’s own Cultivation was not low; he was at the Spirit Pill Stage Level, possessing a strength at the Peak of the Spirit Pill Stage, the same tier as Qing Liuyun. However, his overall power was likely much stronger than Qing Liuyun’s.

In the end, it was said that the God of Slaughter had been killed by a powerful expert. To think his soul would appear here. ’Then again, this area is a battlefield. It’s not impossible that the God of Slaughter died right here.’

This was something Lin Xuan hadn’t expected. And even as a soul, it could still absorb the endless Killing Intent. It seemed that not only had it not grown weaker, but it had actually become stronger and stronger, even gaining the ability to attack people.

This was the first time he had encountered such a soul, but more than that, he felt a pleasant surprise! ’If I could obtain the God of Slaughter’s soul, what kind of effect would that have?’

"I apologize for disturbing Senior’s rest. This junior was disrespectful. But since Senior God of Slaughter’s physical body has been destroyed, you should rest in peace." With a sudden swing of the White Pupil Rod in his hand, Lin Xuan easily slew the charging soldiers. He could still handle soldiers at the Fifth Layer of Spirit Refining Stage.

The God of Slaughter’s appearance didn’t slow the soldiers down in the slightest. On the contrary, it boosted their morale, making them even more ferocious.

"Rest in peace? What arrogance. Even though this God of Slaughter is dead, no one can hope to subdue me!" Laughter echoed from the God of Slaughter’s soul, but only Lin Xuan could hear it.

"Can’t subdue you? Then I’ll subdue you myself!" Lin Xuan’s eyes gleamed. As long as he could obtain the God of Slaughter’s soul, it would be a huge boost to him. How could he possibly let an opportunity like this go?

It was like a treasure had been placed right in front of him, and only he could take it. How could he possibly let it pass?

"What an arrogant brat! In all the time I’ve slumbered, you’re the first to speak to me like this. If you can subdue this God of Slaughter, this God of Slaughter will grant you infinite power!" The God of Slaughter laughed, his soul trembling. An overwhelming wave of Killing Intent swept out, and the soldiers’ attacks became more agile, their speed increasing drastically!

The already dead soldiers seemed to come to life at this moment, attacking Lin Xuan with frenzy.

"’Interesting. It’s a shame you ran into me...’" Lin Xuan chuckled and tossed out three statues from his Storage Space, which transformed into Lin Hua, Qing Liuyun, and the Fire Phoenix!

Three experts at the First Layer of the Essence Pill Stage. Even if they were only at the First Layer of the Essence Pill Stage, it was more than enough to crush these soldiers. With their help, subduing the God of Slaughter’s soul would become much easier for Lin Xuan, as he would no longer be affected by the soldiers.

The moment they appeared, the soldiers were easily killed in a single move. They had practically no time to react before they were turned into a red mist, which then burrowed into Lin Xuan’s body and his Token.

This was no different from when he killed them himself. He had originally planned to use this later, but now, to deal with the God of Slaughter with all his strength, he could only unleash them early. The reason he was so confident he could beat Zhao Fei was because he had these statues. So what if there were many soldiers? He had several statues that could easily fight at the Essence Pill Stage Level. How could Zhao Fei possibly compare?

From the moment the bet was made, Zhao Fei was destined to lose.

"Cyan Cloud Step!"

Lin Xuan took advantage of the opening, flashing to the side of the God of Slaughter’s soul with extreme speed and reaching out to grab it. As long as he could catch the God of Slaughter’s soul, he could control it. No matter how terrifying the God of Slaughter was in life, no matter how domineering his soul, it would have to submit before the Soul Pearl!

"Don’t even think about it!" The God of Slaughter’s soul trembled again, releasing a red mist that formed into lances. Countless red lances shot out at an astonishing speed. Lin Xuan didn’t even have time to dodge one of them, and it pierced directly into his body.

It didn’t cause him any serious physical injury. Instead, a terrifying Killing Intent spread out from within him. A wave of Killing Intent potent enough to shatter a person’s consciousness rushed to his head. Lin Xuan shuddered as a red glow rapidly filled his eyes, as if in the next moment he would become the God of Slaughter’s slave!

But then, with a slight tremble, the red glow in his eyes quickly faded. At the same time, he dodged away with extreme speed, flashing to a corner.

"Not bad, brat! You’ve got some skill! In the past, anyone hit by this attack of mine wasn’t able to recover so quickly. They would lose their Heart Spirit, or even die here, HAHAHA!" The God of Slaughter seemed to be enjoying the thrill of battle. His fighting spirit was roused, and he burst into laughter.

’Such terrifying Killing Intent!’

Lin Xuan was shocked. He had almost felt himself being devoured by the Killing Intent just now. The lances formed from the red mist didn’t cause any physical damage, but they could affect his mind. Fortunately, he was still under the effects of the Golden Dragon King’s Soul Possession, which had greatly enhanced his fortitude in all aspects, so he wasn’t too affected.

If he hadn’t had the Golden Dragon King’s Soul Possession, he really would have had a momentary lapse, or even gone berserk. If he were attacked by the soldiers in that state, he would have been seriously injured.

However, this also stimulated Lin Xuan, causing his will to fight to surge. He refused to believe he couldn’t subdue this God of Slaughter.

「Outside the Godslaying Array.」

The numbers for Lin Xuan’s room were soaring wildly. The observers wondered if their eyes were playing tricks on them. The soldiers were at the Late Stage of the Spirit Refining Stage, their Cultivation quite impressive, yet Lin Xuan was cutting through them like melons and vegetables. The numbers just kept rising at an incredible speed.

If Zhao Fei and the others were here to see this, they would surely be coughing up blood. After all, not even they could achieve such a speed.

If he kept slaughtering at this rate, Zhao Fei and the others wouldn’t just lose; they wouldn’t even be able to catch up. Based on their previous limits, the best they could do was fight up to around the Eighth Layer of the Spirit Refining Stage, and that was pretty much their breaking point.

Their absolute best was the Ninth Layer of Spirit Refining Stage, which meant killing over eight hundred Spirit Refining Stage soldiers. That was already an incredible limit. By that point, their hands would be weak from killing, and their Elemental Power would be nearly depleted. Even taking Elixir Pills would make it difficult to recover their strength.

The most crucial factor was that the Killing Intent was too dense. Their bodies would be pushed to their limits, and if they continued to absorb it, they might lose their minds.

"What’s going on? What in the world is happening in there?" Zi Yi murmured, staring at the space Lin Xuan occupied.

She had a feeling that this time, Lin Xuan might actually win!
