--- Chapter 199 ---

"I don't want to take a risk." Yunlong calmly answered. "This man's existence is more dangerous than you think."

Kaguya solemnly looked at the pile of ash and casually asked, "Then, did you feel relieved after you killed him?"

"Not really." Yunlong naturally smiled while looking at the skies.

"Even though Tang Chen could be an obstacle if I didn't kill him, there are a few dangerous entities we must fight in the future." He continued, which caused Kaguya to become quiet for a moment.

'Rakshaha God, I know she was jealous because Asura God's position was higher than her, but to think, she caused such a problem.' Yunlong thought while releasing a sigh.

The scene still fresh in Yunlong's mind, a woman with a black scythe arrived from thin air and attacked Tang Chen without mercy.

Even though Yunlong wondered whatever Rakshasha God really showed in the trial or it was just her will because he didn't see anything special except for her Scythe Technique.

"I only saw it briefly, but I might be able to recreate it," Yunlong muttered while glancing at the black ring on his finger.

He shook his head slightly and continued, "Well, let's focus on getting Death God Domain first."

"Yunlong?" Kaguya suddenly pulled his sleeve.

"Yes?" Yunlong turned around and looked at Kaguya, who had a bunch of spirit bones in her arms.

"What are these?" She asked with a stoic yet curious expression.

Yunlong glanced at Kaguya's arms and answered, "Those are Spirit Bones."

"Spirit Bones..." Kaguya muttered and nodded in understanding.

Kaguya has seen Ah Yin's memory, and she knew a few things about this world from that, but her information wasn't perfect.

She's still clueless like a child in this world, so Spirit Bones rather intrigued her. In Shinobi's world, there is no such thing because she possessed chakras and bloodline limits.

"Where did you get them?" Yunlong questioned, which led Kaguya out of her thoughts.

"Mhm, there," Kaguya answered while pointing her finger at the pile of ash. "I was curious, so I picked a few of them."

"I see..." Yunlong sighed slightly. "Do you find a red sword there?"

"Red sword?" Kaguya tilted her head in confusion.

Kaguya pondered for a second and continued, "I don't see such a thing? I only found these."

"Eh?" Yunlong was surprised because the Asura Sword should have been with Tang Chen.

Tang Chen was the God of Asura's inheritor. He should have obtained the Asura Sword in his trials. However, when Kaguya told him she didn't find any sword, Yunlong was immediately speechless.

'Wait... in the original plot, Tang San should have met the Slaughter King in the future, but with my presence, I have changed that possibility.' Yunlong thought while massaging his forehead.

"Then, where is the sword?" He muttered.

Dum!

The great gate released a bright crimson color, and Yunlong suddenly felt his heart throbbed in pain for a second.

Kaguya also felt the same, and they immediately moved their gazes to the Hell Road, which seemed to call them.

"Yunlong." Kaguya approached him with a solemn expression.

"I know. I feel it too," Yunlong naturally responded.

Yunlong immediately created a clone with the shadow clone technique and grasped Kaguya's hand. "Let's go." He said while walking forward.

"Mhm," Kaguya replied with a nod.

They entered Hell Road, and the gate slowly closed when they walked a few meters away.

Yunlong's clone looked at this with a neutral gaze. He picked the rest of Tang Chen's spirit bones and threw them into inventory.

"Well, let's finish the job." He said while shrugging his shoulders.

"Don't let any people in the city alive, and destroy the entire city."

--- Hell Road ---

Yunlong and Kaguya calmly followed the dusky path and noticed dense killing intent washed over them.

They shrugged it off because such a weak killing intent wouldn't even affect them, but then a howl echoed.

A crowd of wolves howled in unison and ran toward Yunlong and Kaguya at a fast speed.

Yunlong was about to draw his sword, but Kaguya hurriedly stood in front of him and said, "Let me do it."

Kaguya released a dim silver light from her palm and grasped the soil beneath them.

BOOM!

The ground violently shook as Kaguya's voice echoed, and silver vines burst out of the soil. "Pierce." She commanded with a cold voice.

AAAUUU!

The leader wolf howled and tried to attack Kaguya, but silver vines trapped and pierced its body. The pack also experienced the same because she didn't give them mercy.

Yunlong noticed these wolves' eyes are red because of the excessive killing intent they have absorbed, yet He frowned because Kaguya's strength has surpassed a Spirit Ancestor, even Spirit King.

"How poor." Kaguya stared at the wolves and didn't feel any remorse in her heart for some reason.

"That's enough, so let's continue." Yunlong suddenly patted her on the head.

They continued their walks and moved past three different places. The first was a field barred with red fireballs akin to miniature suns, which could literally burn Kaguya alive.

Yunlong used his pill there to help her in this place, and they passed to the next place, which was full of 10,000 years old spirit beasts.

They have been rigorously chased, ambushed, and poisoned by these beasts. Yunlong tried to intimidate them, but weirdly it didn't even affect them.

Yunlong and Kaguya didn't have a choice but to massacre literally every beast on their path until they reached the next place.

The third place was an illusion field, which caused living beings to become cannibals.

When they arrived at this place, they witnessed a monkey eat another monkey with eyes filled with hunger.

Of course, illusion won't work on them, so Yunlong and Kaguya casually walked past this area without any difficulty except for killing every man-eating beast who always approached them.

"Fourth Field..." Yunlong looked around with a keen gaze.

"There, I sense something there." Kaguya hastily pointed her finger in a west direction, which Yunlong observed for a moment.

ROARRRR!

A ten-headed serpentine creature entered Yunlong's view, and he softly mumbled, "Ten-Headed Fierce Yang Serpent."

Ten-Headed Serpent stood around 10 feet with a slender yet thick deep-red serpentine body.

[Name: Ten-Headed Fierce Yang Serpent]

[Species: Prehistoric Beast]

[Description: Prehistoric Beast with the most potent fire poison of snake types. It was extremely fierce and attacked everything on its path]

Yunlong also noticed a black portal behind the serpent, which caused him to smirk.

"Kaguya, when I count to three, I want you to run toward that portal." Yunlong confidently instructed, to which Kaguya responded with a nod.

"Okay," Kaguya replied while preparing herself.

"One, Two, Three!"

Kaguya's silhouette flashed, and Yunlong swiftly followed her. Their actions caused the serpent to notice their presence.

However, Kaguya didn't mind the beast and kept running with incredible speed, leaving a faint afterimage.

The serpent opened its mouth and launched a red miasma at them, but Yunlong casually created a shockwave by punching air.

BOOM!

Kaguya moved past the serpent, and Yunlong jumped to the air with a sword in his hand.

"Unison Sword: Crimson Annihilation Chop."

The sword flashed with crimson lightning, and Yunlong struck the serpent with a powerful slash.

BOOM!

A flash of crimson lightning followed after and struck Ten-Headed Fierce Yang Serpent.

ROAARRR!

[You have killed Ten-Headed Fierce Yang Serpent]

[Mortal Sin: Gluttony activated]

[You have gained Extreme Yang Breath]

Yunlong quickly took a small crystal and moved forward to Kaguya, who had been waiting in front of the portal.

The field suddenly shook and abruptly collapsed after Yunlong killed its guardian.

He grasped Kaguya's body and lifted her swiftly, running into the black portal.

The portal led them to a magma bowl, where Six-Armed Statue stood with a menacing aura.

"That's our target," Yunlong said while looking at the statue.

Kaguya moved her gaze to the six-armed statue and saw a massive black key floating above its head.

"Flash Step." He instantly used his movement technique.

They hovered above the magma bowl and swiftly flew to the statue. "This is easier than I expected..." Yunlong commented.

BOOM!

The statue abruptly moved its six arms and started to attack them, which caused Kaguya's eyes to widen for a second.

"Behind you!" Kaguya was hurriedly alarmed because a spear had lunged itself into Yunlong.

Yunlong's eyes transformed into eternal mangekyou sharingan, and Susanoo covered them entirely.

BAM!

They got smacked from the back, which launched them to a cave wall.

Yunlong kicked the wall and moved toward the statue, which automatically attacked them with a weird pattern.

"Left."

"Up."

"Down."

Yunlong dodged each attack and almost reached the statue's head, which caused both of their eyes to shone.

Crack!

Susanoo got attacked again, but Yunlong immediately abandoned it because their goal was the black key.

Yunlong created another Susanoo and rotated the key, which was surprisingly heavy, as fast as he could.

The statue raised its arms and attacked Yunlong from above, to which Kaguya responded by countering it with her attack.

"Eighty Gods Vacuum Fist."

Kaguya pushed her palm, and spirit energy quickly gathered and formed into energy fists.

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

"Yunlong!"

Yunlong gritted his teeth and pulled the key with all his might, which caused a heavy click noise to echo.

Crack! BOOM!

The statue cracked, and its six arms exploded into million pieces.

A black aura covered the entire area, and the key dispersed into a dusky haze.

Yunlong and Kaguya completely were embraced by this haze and sensed a newfound power residing in their bodies.

"This is the death god domain..." Yunlong felt his strength increased.

Kaguya suddenly hugged him and whispered, "Are you injured?"

"I'm okay." Yunlong smiled.

When the place slowly collapsed, they instantly were teleported out of this place.

Yunlong didn't realize this, but a crimson-black sword mark appeared on his forehead.
