Chapter 249 Slaughter City, Maggot King?
A month has passed in a flash.
Tiandou City, Tianxing Academy.
Since that earth-shattering ambush outside Spirit City, taking advantage of the moment when Bibi Dong's physical body collapsed and she was still seriously injured, Spirit Hall's power temporarily contracted.
Dugu Bo, together with Sword Douluo, Ning Fengzhi, and others, managed to safely bring the remaining students of Tianxing Academy back to Tiandou City without any major incidents.
After settling the students in, Dugu Bo barely stopped for a moment, using all his connections and channels to frantically search for information about Tang Chuan and Xiao Ruier.
Whether it's the movements of the Spirit Hall or the strange occurrences in the Star Dou Great Forest.
He doesn't let go of any possible clue.
However, Tang Chuan and Xiao Ruier seemed to have vanished into thin air, and they never found anything.
This filled him with immense anxiety, yet he felt utterly helpless.
However, Tianxing Academy itself reached an unprecedented peak of fame after winning the championship of the Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Elite Tournament!
The prestigious reputation of Champion Academy has attracted the attention of countless young Soul Masters and families across the continent. Every day, the entrance to Tianxing Academy is bustling with activity, a constant stream of people coming to register and inquire. The academy's prestige and scale are expanding at an unprecedented rate, making it a strong contender for the title of the continent's number one academy.
This stands in stark contrast to the bustling crowds at Tianxing Academy.
It is Shrek Academy, which is also located in Tiandou City.
With their core disciple Tang San's identity confirmed as an evil soul master and his mysterious disappearance during the competition, Shrek Academy's reputation was utterly ruined. The once-proud title of "Monster Academy" had become a stain that everyone avoided.
The once-bustling courtyard is now deserted and desolate.
The training ground was overgrown with weeds, the dormitory building was covered in dust, and the doors and windows were covered with cobwebs.
The entire academy was deserted, as if it were a ghost town abandoned by time.
One family rejoices while another grieves; this is the landscape of mainland China.
It is in this silent transformation that things are quietly being rewritten.
…………
The City of Slaughter, the Hellish Slaughter Arena.
The foul air was mixed with the stench of blood and madness, and the roars of the fallen in the stands were like the howls of wild beasts, rising higher and higher.
In the center of the field, the dark red ground was already soaked with dried and fresh blood.
A ragged, ruthless-looking youth was seen wielding a jet-black Haotian Hammer, fighting against nine other vicious and depraved individuals.
He was none other than Tang San.
However, his fighting style is completely different from that of the orthodox successors of the Haotian Sect.
It even appears incredibly sinister and disgusting.
Every time Tang San swung the Clear Sky Hammer and smashed it into an enemy or the ground, the hammer did not unleash any earth-shattering power. Instead, countless white, wriggling maggots would spray out! These maggots rained down on the surrounding enemies like a storm.
"Ugh! What is that?!"
"Get away from me! You're disgusting!"
The surrounding Fallen Ones paled in shock at the splatter of maggots, which, while not particularly aggressive, were extremely insulting and disgusting.
The fallen ones scrambled to avoid it, terrified of being tainted by the filth.
They would rather face swords and spears than be covered in maggots.
This gave Tang San a brief respite and the initiative amidst the chaotic siege.
"Hmph, a bunch of useless trash!"
Seeing this, Tang San sneered, a cruel and bloodthirsty glint flashing in his eyes.
Immediately afterwards, he used Ghostly Shadow to move swiftly like a ghost. His left hand silently lashed out, and Blue Silver Grass sprang from the ground like a venomous snake. It was no longer the vibrant blue of life, but a dark red, almost black color, carrying a strong corrosive and paralyzing toxicity, silently wrapping around the bodies of the other fallen ones.
Unable to use soul skills, Tang San combined the characteristics of his martial soul with his own poison skills and hidden weapon techniques, evolving into this most ruthless and vicious close combat style.
"Pfft!"
A Fallen One was entangled by Blue Silver Grass and instantly collapsed to the ground. Before he could even struggle, Tang San's Clear Sky Hammer, accompanied by a whistling wind and flying maggots, smashed down on his head!
Instantly, his brains splattered!
The killings proceeded efficiently and cruelly.
With the interference of the eerie and disgusting Clear Sky Hammer, and the control and sneak attacks of the insidious and deadly Blue Silver Grass, Tang San moved through the arena like a Grim Reaper, constantly killing people.
It only takes the time it takes for an incense stick to burn.
The other nine Fallen Ones lay dead in pools of blood, lifeless.
The entire Hell Slaughter Arena fell silent for a moment, with only Tang San's heavy breathing and the even more frenzied cheers from the stands.
Tang San stood in the center of the pile of corpses, his cold gaze sweeping over the bodies on the ground.
He didn't leave immediately, but slowly squatted down, reached out his hand, and touched a still warm corpse. The next moment, something strange happened!
The corpse's skin visibly dried up and turned ashen, and the blood inside seemed to be drawn by some force, turning into wisps of blood-red mist that continuously flowed into Tang San's palm!
One, two, three... He drained all the blood from the nine corpses on the field before slowly standing up. An unnatural blush appeared on his pale face, and the chilling aura emanating from his body seemed to have intensified.
Here, there are no rules, only survival.
Tang San is struggling to survive and become stronger in this most depraved and wicked way.
The Haotian Hammer in his hand seemed to grow even darker under the stain of blood.
As the last Fallen One's blood was drained, leaving him shriveled and limp on the ground, only Tang San remained standing in the center of the Hellish Slaughter Arena.
After a brief silence in the stands, a series of even more frenzied and hysterical shouts and howls erupted. These degenerates, who had long abandoned humanity and succumbed to slaughter and chaos, crowned the victors with their distorted aesthetics and values.
What they were chanting was not reverence for the strong, but a title filled with mockery, ridicule, and malice:
"The Maggot Explosion King! The Maggot Explosion King! The Maggot Explosion King!"
"The Maggot Explosion King! The Maggot Explosion King!"
The shouts rose higher and higher, perfectly synchronized, echoing throughout the entire hellish killing field.
This name is simple, blunt, and gets straight to the heart of the matter. It comes from Tang San's strange Clear Sky Hammer. Every attack is accompanied by the burst of countless maggots!
The scene was so shocking and so deeply ingrained that these fallen ones overlooked his equally deadly Blue Silver Grass and ruthless methods, but instead imprinted this most visually striking and insulting feature firmly in their minds, bestowing upon him this "royal title" full of wicked humor.
Listening to the deafening roar of the crowd from the stands, Tang San's knuckles turned slightly white from gripping the Clear Sky Hammer so tightly.
At that moment, the muscles on his sinister face twitched almost imperceptibly.
Is it shameful?
Yes, this was undoubtedly an extreme humiliation for him.
Tang San, a genius of the Tang Sect in his previous life, is now the son of Haotian Douluo.
When have I ever been stigmatized like this?
But in this city of slaughter, shame and dignity are the least valuable things.
To live and to become stronger is the only truth.
Slowly raising his head, Tang San's cold gaze swept over the twisted and crazed faces in the stands, suppressing the humiliation deep in his heart and transforming it into an even stronger sense of malevolence and killing intent.
"Maggot King... Hmph! Once I obtain the God of Slaughter Domain and leave this place, I will repay this humiliation a hundredfold!"
"Tang Chuan, you just wait! I will definitely kill you to avenge Xiao Wu!"
…………
Meanwhile, thousands of miles away, in the Starry Sky Forest, a place of great danger.
The shores of Lake Life are tranquil and peaceful.
The rich life force almost materialized as mist flowing through the forest.
The energy cocoon, which had been suspended for over a month, had its light subsided, becoming gentle and peaceful. Suddenly, within the energy cocoon, the boy's eyes, which had been tightly closed for a whole month, abruptly opened!
