Chapter 65 The Emperor's Great Power
If the inheritance of the "God of Slaughter Domain" ends here, then the inheritance of the god will likely be born among the existing "Gods of Slaughter". Moreover, because of the destruction of the "City of Slaughter", this inheritor, as the inheritor of the god, will not be restricted by the place of inheritance, and no new "God of Slaughter" will appear to compete with him. This almost means that this person can use the power obtained from the divine inheritance to do whatever he wants in the outside world.
The one who ultimately appears will likely be a completely corrupted evil god, utterly deviating from the original intent of the "Slaughter City" legacy. That great man once instructed him that the legacy of the "God of Slaughter" was not simply about finding a murderous demon king or a butcher, but about a true "judge" or "arbitrator" who could maintain order in the world through absolute slaughter.
However, it would be a mistake, a complete mistake, if a demon king were to be born who slaughters indiscriminately for his own whims. If the City of Slaughter still existed, he, as its administrator, could still influence the "Gods of Slaughter" who emerged from there, just as Poseidon and Sendou Ryu, as deities, could interfere with the divine examinations to some extent.
If all else fails, he can create a new "God of Slaughter" to eliminate or change the fallen successor.
Moreover, who are the two killing gods currently existing in this world? Back in the City of Slaughter, he had already observed them in secret and basically understood their true nature. One appeared strong on the outside but was actually fragile and obsessed on the inside; the other was an even more selfish and cold-blooded villain. If these two were to truly begin accepting the divine test, it would be almost inevitable that they would go down the path of evil. At the very least, they were not suitable to become a true "judge".
"You have this kind of understanding. Over the years, you have not been in vain as the King of Slaughter."
At this moment, Zhong Li actually nodded and said.
The enormous meteorite transformed into a pale golden elemental block in the next instant, which Zhong Li casually pocketed into his sleeve, much to the astonishment of the King of Slaughter.
At that moment, the King of Slaughter felt a wave of relaxation wash over him, and he almost collapsed to the ground, experiencing a feeling of having escaped death.
"This world does indeed need a judge. However, it is not something that the power you are protecting can bear. To be qualified to judge, one must first walk on the righteous path."
Zhong Li turned around, put his hands behind his back, and said calmly.
"Come with me now. Perhaps you've forgotten that what I said from the beginning wasn't to destroy the City of Slaughter, but to transform this place."
At this moment, even the King of Slaughter was momentarily stunned, then a bitter smile appeared on his face. Yes, when this person first arrived, didn't he say he wanted to change the City of Slaughter? It was just that this person's arrogance and blasphemy had angered him.
At that moment, he felt that as long as the city of slaughter could avoid destruction, any changes didn't seem like a big deal.
Zhongli arrived at the very center of the King of Slaughter's palace, took out the Piercing Rainbow Spear, and carved an extremely complex pale gold magic circle on the ground. After the drawing was completed, Zhongli placed a rock pillar with contract patterns in the center of the entire magic circle, which was the eye of the array.
"Boom!"
The entire City of Slaughter seemed to tremble slightly. The next moment, the King of Slaughter was horrified to discover that the person before him also seemed to have some control over this world?
No, to be precise, this person's authority seems to be much higher than mine!
If he was merely a low-level administrator, only able to manage the most basic affairs within the City of Slaughter, then Zhong Li was a mid-level, or even high-level, administrator. In fact, he vaguely felt that Zhong Li had already stripped him of his authority within the City of Slaughter.
In an instant, the King of Slaughter's gaze toward Zhong Li became increasingly awe-inspiring.
This person... Yes, he must be a god, a true god. The reason I didn't sense any divine aura from him was perhaps simply because I was too weak and my understanding too shallow. Even among the gods, there are probably not many who could so easily seize the authority over that great one's inheritance site.
"Wait a minute, you...you changed the rules of Slaughter City? What did you add here?"
The King of Slaughter looked at Zhong Li with some surprise and said.
However, the next moment, he himself also sensed the existence of that thing.
"Slaughter City System? Danger Level? Slaughter Points? Combat Navigation?"
The King of Slaughter's expression grew increasingly strange. Moreover, he sensed that Zhong Li seemed to have altered certain structural laws governing the City of Slaughter; the City of Slaughter originally only possessed some basic functions, such as air circulation and water replenishment. However, even resources like food had to be imported from the outside, lacking any capacity for self-sufficiency.
However, things are different now. The City of Slaughter seems to have undergone some changes. Under the influence of the magic array inscribed by Zhong Li, the City of Slaughter seems to have opened an energy channel with the outside world, beginning to draw a continuous stream of energy from the outside, as well as the immense power of desire generated by humans outside. After these forces enter the City of Slaughter, they replenish its energy and transform into various things, such as rainwater, sunlight, spiritual energy needed for cultivation, and even plants.
He even sensed that the entire Slaughter City was slowly expanding at a very slow pace. From now on, the Slaughter City might no longer be just a special "city," but a true realm of its own! Such methods... even that great one might not possess! Otherwise, how could the Slaughter City, as a place of inheritance, have been so rudimentary? It had even been infiltrated by other deities, and the pollution they had infiltrated has not yet been completely eradicated.
Little did he know that this was Zhongli's "Inner World" technique, belonging to the Liyue Immortal Clan, not the power of the gods of this world. Even the God King of this world did not possess the ability to create a world with truly complete laws, nor did he have the means to completely destroy a world. Douluo Continent was not created by the gods, nor was the God Realm; these were all remnants of the creator god from countless distant past.
The Liyue Clan's "Inner World" is the true means of creating and shaping the universe within a confined space. It is definitely not a dark, stagnant world like the Killing City, but rather a world that interacts and communicates with the outside world, where various basic elements coexist harmoniously, like a miniature landscape of the outside world. It can contain famous mountains and oceans, and cultivation inside can even be faster than outside.
For the first time, true sunlight appeared in the City of Slaughter. As the sunlight streamed down from the sky and fell upon the people, the dark red mist that always shrouded the City of Slaughter dissipated. Although the sky remained somewhat gloomy, everyone felt as if they had finally returned to the outside world. For a moment, many martial artists who had been engrossed in slaughter couldn't help but shed tears.
Even those who have walked the farthest into the darkness will yearn for the sunlight at some point in their lives.
Moreover, the situation is different now; they have truly seen new hope—real, not illusory.
In the past, there was only one legendary way to leave the Killing City: the "Path of the God of Slaughter." Countless people, for this illusory hope, numbed themselves and indulged in endless, frenzied fighting until they became souls at the hands of others.
Over the years, only a handful of legendary killers have truly left this place. Moreover, almost none of those who have seen these individuals are still alive.
