Chapter 183 Tang Chen is not dead! Nor is he missing! Surprised?
"The powers of ice and fire can coexist?"
Bo Saixi was quite surprised. After carefully sensing for a while, she did not discover anything mysterious, so she gave up for the time being.
At this time!
The clash between their domains created a stalemate. Bo Saixi spoke up, "Dugu Lin, it's time to reveal Tang Chen's whereabouts!"
"OK!"
The confrontation between domains and soul power is exactly what Dugu Lin wants! It's also a good opportunity to disturb Bo Saixi's mind.
While circulating his soul power to fight against Bo Saixi, Dugu Lin said, "Senior Bo Saixi, you know about the City of Slaughter, right?"
"The City of Slaughter?" Bo Saixi had certainly heard of that place.
Dugu Lin continued, "The City of Slaughter is the place where the Asura God's divine inheritance is located. That's the place Tang Chen found back then!"
Bo Saixi brandished her scepter, unleashing an even more ferocious surge of soul power!
"Back then, Senior Tang Chen obtained the Nine Trials of the Asura God! As long as he completes the ninth trial, he will be able to inherit the position of the Asura God!"
"But what a pity!"
Bo Saixi's heart tightened, and she asked, "What exactly happened?"
Dugu Lin slowly recounted the fabricated story: "The ninth trial of the Asura God also requires a sacrifice from the High Priest of the Asura God!"
"Sacrifice?" Upon hearing the word "sacrifice," Bo Saixi had no doubts, because even the ninth trial of the Sea God required a sacrifice from the high priest!
"The High Priest of the City of Slaughter is the King of Slaughter! And the King of Slaughter's true form is a dark gold nine-headed bat king. He has lived for hundreds of thousands, nearly a million years! He is unwilling to sacrifice himself to die!"
"And then!" Bo Saixi's emotions fluctuated noticeably, and her soul power output increased even more!
Ice Emperor, Ah Yin, and the twelve-winged archangel and six-armed Titan Giant Ape controlled by Dugu Lin suddenly felt immense pressure, and beads of cold sweat seeped from their foreheads.
Dugu Lin continued, "And so! When the Dark Gold Nine-Headed Bat King was sacrificing himself to begin the ninth trial of the Asura God, he ambushed Tang Chen!"
"What! How dare he launch a sneak attack on the heir to the divine throne?!"
Dugu Lin chuckled inwardly, thinking, 'So you wanted to kill Tang San too!'
"Why wouldn't you dare? The Dark Gold Nine-Headed Bat King has lived for nearly a million years. Why should he sacrifice himself for a human? Senior Bo Saixi, High Priest of the Sea God! Ask yourself honestly, are you willing to sacrifice yourself to begin the Ninth Trial of the Sea God?"
Bo Saixi was taken aback for a moment by the question, and her faith in Dugu Lin increased somewhat! Because she herself would not willingly sacrifice herself to please others!
Dugu Lin continued, "If I were to obtain the Nine Trials of the Sea God, have you ever considered tampering with the trials to make me die during them?!"
Bo Saixi roared, "I didn't! How could I possibly betray Lord Sea God!"
"No need to shout! I'm just asking you, do you even believe what you're saying?"
Bo Saixi: "..."
Bo Saixi's eyes narrowed slightly, a murderous intent rising within her. She said in a deep voice, "The sixth trial of the top-tier Seven Trials requires me to use my full strength! Aren't you worried that I might accidentally kill you?"
"Hehe~ Are you furious now that your thoughts have been exposed? By the way, do you still want to know how Tang Chen is doing now!"
Mentioning Tang Chen, Bo Saixi suppressed the murderous intent in her heart: "Continue!"
"After ambushing Tang Chen, the Dark Gold Nine-Headed Bat King wanted to possess Tang Chen's body, completely take over his body, and then replace him!"
"Possession? How dare it!" Bo Saixi felt a pang of pain in her heart.
Dugu Lin continued, "Fortunately, Tang Chen was at least a level 99 Peerless Douluo, with very powerful soul power! Therefore, the Dark Gold Nine-Headed Bat King was unable to obliterate Tang Chen's soul, but instead coexisted with him, becoming the new generation's King of Slaughter!"
"Tang Chen... he's the King of Slaughter?"
"You could say that."
Dugu Lin smiled and then said, "Senior Bo Saixi, don't you want to go and save him?"
"I…" Bo Saixi opened her mouth, but hesitated, even the restless soul power within her calmed down a little.
Dugu Lin immediately felt the pressure lessen.
After a brief standoff, Dugu Lin laughed and said, "It seems that the love between you and Tang Chen is nothing special! It's just a trip to the City of Slaughter to save your beloved, why are you still hesitating?"
"What nonsense are you spouting?" Bo Saixi's soul power surged once more as she roared, "I am the High Priestess of Seagod Island, it is my duty..."
Seeing this, Dugu Lin thought to himself: 'What reason could possibly stop a love-struck woman from rescuing her lover? Is it because she can't easily leave Seagod Island?'
Before Dugu Lin could ask, Bo Saixi said, "After this matter is over, I will naturally go to the City of Slaughter to verify the truth!"
Upon hearing this, Dugu Lin suddenly laughed and said, "Hehe~ Actually, I was lying to you! How could I possibly know what the King of Slaughter's true form is? And how could I be sure that the King of Slaughter is Tang Chen?"
"What...what did you say?"
The sudden turn of events clearly startled Bo Saixi for a moment. When she finally came to her senses, a surge of rage welled up within her, ready to explode!
Dugu Lin continued, "You know the Clear Sky Sect, right? Two of the three upper sects have already been destroyed by Spirit Hall, leaving only the Clear Sky Sect! Do you know why?"
More than two years have passed since the Soul Hunting Operation, and news of the changes in the situation on the continent has long reached Seagod Island. Bo Saixi had heard about the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus and the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.
Dugu Lin smiled and said, "You know the strength of Spirit Hall, and you should know Qian Daoliu's power even better than I do! Spirit Hall destroyed two major sects with the aim of unifying the continent! With Qian Daoliu's strength, destroying the Clear Sky Sect without Tang Chen should be easy, right? So, Senior Bo Saixi, why don't you guess why Qian Daoliu didn't destroy the Clear Sky Sect? Why did he keep the Clear Sky Sect around to hinder Spirit Hall's unification of the continent?"
The repeated bombardment of information caused Bo Saixi's emotions to fluctuate wildly. She angrily demanded, "What exactly are you trying to say? As far as I know, Qian Daoliu is a man of great loyalty and honor; he wouldn't harm Tang Chen's family..."
"Wrong! Spirit Hall has been preparing for the unification of the continent for nearly a thousand years! How could Qian Daoliu possibly be so sentimental about such a grand plan?"
Bo Saixi was being led by the nose. After thinking for two seconds, she said, "Qian Daoliu is wary of Tang Chen. Even though Tang Chen has been missing for decades, he is still wary of him!"
"That's completely wrong! Qian Daoliu is invincible in the sky, and he even has the divine artifact Angel Sword in his hand! Besides, Spirit Hall's millennium plan is just around the corner. Would Qian Daoliu hesitate because he's afraid of someone who's been missing for decades? I just want to ask you, put yourself in Qian Daoliu's shoes, would you be afraid of someone who's been missing for decades?"
"Then tell me why?"
With things progressing smoothly to this point, Dugu Lin narrowed his eyes and said, "Because Tang Chen has never disappeared!"
"How could that be? If he hadn't disappeared, he would have come looking for me long ago!"
"Tell me, is it possible that his wife is preventing him from seeing a mistress who might destroy their family? That is, Bo Saixi, you!"
"A mistress... a mistress?" Bo Saixi was struck dumb!
