In the City of Slaughter, one couldn't use Soul Power, meaning Soul Skills were impossible, nor could one use Soul Power to activate their martial soul for other purposes.
Sword Flight required Soul Power to achieve the desired effect.
Yet, the scene of Jiang Xiaofeng suddenly taking to Sword Flight stunned everyone.
"How is that possible?"
Even the King of Slaughter was shocked. The inability to use Soul Power was a fundamental rule of the City of Slaughter.
No one could defy the rules here, not even the King of Slaughter. However, as the King of Slaughter, he could use Soul Power because he had received guidance from the Asura God.
Without the Asura God's permission, he too couldn't use a single trace of Soul Power here.
Tang San reacted quickly, but even he was astonished by Jiang Xiaofeng's sudden ability to use Sword Flight. Without hesitation, he charged forward, but he was simply not as fast as Jiang Xiaofeng.
The King of Slaughter was a bit angry, not expecting anyone to be so insolent in front of him.
"None of you are going anywhere! Stay here, all of you, and keep me company!"
Jiang Xiaofeng couldn't possibly stay. With Sword Flight pushed to its limit, Jiang Xiaofeng, with Hu Liena, soared into the sky and disappeared.
Tang San, however, was too slow, and the King of Slaughter blocked his path.
Jiang Xiaofeng glanced back, but didn't intend to save him. It had nothing to do with him, and besides, this guy had wasted a lot of his time. Saving him would be no better than killing him.
Jiang Xiaofeng took Hu Liena and quickly reached a safe place.
If Jiang Xiaofeng's reaction hadn't been quick enough, perhaps the three of them would have been the ones left behind.
He had already broken through to the Golden Core Realm, and Sword Flight was now child's play for him.
"Phew, I knew that King of Slaughter wasn't up to any good. Luckily, I was prepared. Otherwise, it wouldn't just be Tang Yin who was left behind!"
Hu Liena looked at Jiang Xiaofeng with a curious expression.
"Brother Feng, how did you do it? Unable to use Soul Power, you could still Sword Flight. I remember you were always trying to fly before, but it never worked out. Why is it so easy for you now?"
Jiang Xiaofeng said, "Of course, it's because of the hard work I've put in over the past few years. My Soul Power has been stuck at level 60 for years, and yours is also at level 60. We can't get Soul Rings here, so I had to practice other skills!"
Hu Liena nodded. Here, without the ability to get Soul Rings, Soul Power would always be stuck at level 60. It would be better to learn more skills, which could improve one's attack methods.
"Brother Feng is still amazing. But I don't understand, how did you do it here, where you can't use Soul Power?"
Jiang Xiaofeng couldn't answer. Even if he told her, would Hu Liena understand?
"You wouldn't understand even if I told you. I'll explain it to you when I have a chance, but not now. What we need to do now is hurry to the Hell Road. Where exactly is the entrance to the Hell Road?"
Hu Liena, of course, didn't know either.
"How about we ask the Slaughter Envoy sister?"
Jiang Xiaofeng was a little helpless. Now, they could only ask her. Bibi Dong had told him that the entrance to Hell Road was opened by the King of Slaughter.
But the current King of Slaughter certainly wouldn't open Hell Road easily, so they needed another way.
"Let's go, let's talk to the Slaughter Envoy!"
When they found the Slaughter Envoy, she also shook her head helplessly.
"The only way to enter Hell Road is to have the King of Slaughter open the passage. According to what you said, the current King of Slaughter probably won't open it easily!"
Jiang Xiaofeng was a little helpless; he didn't expect it to end like this.
Jiang Xiaofeng and Hu Liena were a bit anxious. This Hell Road… If only the King of Slaughter could open it, then they were in trouble.
"Is there really no other way?"
The Slaughter Envoy shook his head. "There really isn't. If you want to go to Hell Road, you must find the King of Slaughter again!"
Jiang Xiaofeng thought about the King of Slaughter's previous demeanor and decided to forget it. He shouldn't provoke him unless absolutely necessary; otherwise, he might really get left behind.
However, just as Jiang Xiaofeng was at a loss, the entire City of Slaughter began to tremble.
"What's going on?"
The Slaughter Envoy was shocked. "Bad! The King of Slaughter is about to open Hell Road! You must hurry to the Arena; the Arena is the only entrance to Hell Road!"
Jiang Xiaofeng was alarmed.
The King of Slaughter was definitely the one who opened Hell Road when they were still clueless. And the person who opened it for him? That had to be Tang Yin.
Jiang Xiaofeng didn't dare to delay, grabbing Hu Liena's hand and immediately taking off.
"Nena, this Tang Yin... his identity is a bit suspicious!"
Hu Liena didn't feel anything was amiss.
"There's nothing suspicious about it. I feel like he's pretty normal, isn't he just a disciple of the Clear Sky Sect?"
Jiang Xiaofeng shook his head, but he had an indescribable feeling.
Jiang Xiaofeng rushed onto the Arena at the fastest speed possible.
He finally got in just as the Arena doors closed.
However, a terrifying scene unfolded here.
The King of Slaughter was absorbing the blood essence of everyone in the Arena to open the Hell Road.
Tang Yin stood quietly behind the King of Slaughter.
Jiang Xiaofeng and Hu Liena hid silently to the side.
Jiang Xiaofeng used his unique ability to conceal their auras, preventing the King of Slaughter from noticing them.
Soon, the entire Arena resembled a scene from hell.
The floor of the Arena began to loosen.
The entire Arena started to split in two.
From a distance, Jiang Xiaofeng could already see the scene within the chasm split in two, which was filled with molten lava.
"Is this the Hell Road?"
Before Jiang Xiaofeng could even think, Tang Yin, standing beside the King of Slaughter, unhesitatingly leaped directly into it.
Jiang Xiaofeng didn't dare to fall behind either.
He flew over with Hu Liena, but this action was immediately noticed by the King of Slaughter.
The King of Slaughter's voice was sinister.
"You've finally arrived, but this hell is only for him, and you two must stay here!"
Jiang Xiaofeng didn't want to listen to his nonsense.
Sword Flight descended rapidly towards the entrance to Hell Road.
Of course, the King of Slaughter wouldn't let them leave so easily.
"Stay! I will make you the next King of Slaughter!"
Jiang Xiaofeng said coldly, "Not interested!"
"You don't have a choice!"
A pair of sharp claws transformed into an enormous hand, ruthlessly swiping towards Jiang Xiaofeng and Hu Liena.
"Brother Feng, we..."
Jiang Xiaofeng calmly said, "Don't worry. I'm here. One Step Across the World!"
He had absolute confidence in his footwork. Over the past four years, since he couldn't cultivate Soul Power, he had poured all his energy into cultivation, especially his techniques and footwork.
Now, his One Step Across the World had reached the Grandmaster Realm, allowing him to even teleport short distances.
Just as that giant hand was about to grasp Jiang Xiaofeng and Hu Liena, their figures vanished instantly.
When they reappeared, they were at the entrance to the Hell Road.
