21: Officially begin

【 Name 】: Shi Yan

【 Level 】: Lv5

【 Mana 】: 456

【 Attribute Points 】: 0

【 Physical Strength 】: 205

【 Soul Strength 】: 20

An ordinary person's physical and soul strength is 10. Shi Yan's soul strength being 20 is likely because he is a transmigrator.

Mana automatically increases with each level-up. The mana here can be converted into any attribute's power source, such as Dou Qi, spiritual energy, mana, etc.

The official dungeon difficulties in Slaughter Paradise are divided into Easy, Normal, Elite, Hard, Nightmare, Purgatory, and Dark.

The dungeon difficulties Shi Yan experienced before are not included in these categories. It's not that the previous dungeons weren't even Easy difficulty; it's just that from now on, the concept of dungeon difficulty exists.

Shi Yan opened the Slaughter Market, which contained everything imaginable.

Skills, equipment, items, and extraordinary organs were all available.

【 Head of the Winter Giant Wolf: Transplant onto body, all attributes increase by 50%, comes with skill (Winter Breath), Price: 86000 】

【 Chainsaw of the Chainsaw Killer: Held in hand, strength increases twofold, comes with skill (Reckless Charge), Price: 65199 】

【 Bloody Butcher Knife: Held in hand, attack speed increases by 79%, comes with skill (Attack Speed Stacking), Price: 46190 】

Shi Yan was a bit surprised to see this; so there was such a thing as organ transplantation? Perhaps he could get some for himself in the future.

Shi Yan returned to his room.

It was nighttime, and the entire room was silent. Shi Yan suddenly fired a Shadow Spike at the right wall.

Along with a sound of piercing flesh, a person in a black robe emerged.

"To be able to discover me, your strength isn't bad. You must be Lv2 by now, right?"

The black-robed person reached out and pulled out the black spike embedded in his right shoulder, then revealed the level above his head.

"Lv9!"

"Fear? Despair? How dare you kill my subordinates? I will make you know what it means to wish for death!"

Everyone has a limited number of subordinates, and each is responsible for a task. Losing subordinates is a minor issue, but if it affects their plans, that truly leads to immense hatred.

The black-robed person slowly walked towards Shi Yan.

Shi Yan's right hand immediately swelled and enlarged, activating Blood Tattooed Transformation. With a fierce whooshing sound, he slammed his palm down towards the black-robed person.

The wind from the attack made the black-robed person's robe and hair wildly sway behind him, and his eyes were so affected that he could barely keep them open.

"This power!"

The black-robed person's eyes narrowed. Gritting his teeth, he used all his strength and quickly stretched out both hands to block Shi Yan's right hand.

"Crack!"

The black-robed person's hands were bent into a strange arc. He let out a strange cry and ran towards the window.

Shi Yan quietly watched him run away.

"Hoo… Hoo…"

The black-robed person fled in a disheveled state, his heart filled with shock. He had investigated this person thoroughly; he was just an ordinary university student before, who had only joined Slaughter Paradise a few days ago and had only entered two dungeons, yet he possessed such formidable power.

"This person must have a great secret! I need to report back quickly!"

The black-robed person ran frantically along the path he came from, quickly leaving the urban area and reaching the northern suburbs. He moved through a forest and finally jumped down into a cave entrance that led directly underground.

After some time, a figure slowly emerged from behind a large tree. That person was Shi Yan.

If Shi Yan truly wanted to kill that black-robed person, he could have easily killed him with one palm. However, if it was always like today, where he would be ambushed every time he exited a dungeon, he would find it quite annoying. It would be better to resolve everything at once.

The black-robed person ran along the winding cave, finally stopping in a dark, damp cave. The ceiling of the cave was covered with all sorts of strangely shaped stone spikes.

Around the altar in the middle of the cave stood a circle of black-robed people, and on the central altar stood a red-robed, blood-haired person.

The red-robed, blood-haired person slowly turned around upon hearing the sound.

"Shadow One, did you get the heart blood of that last ability user?"

"Red Lord, that person is very strange, his power is astonishingly great, and I was lucky to escape!" Shadow One reported the situation, enduring intense pain.

"Oh? To be able to injure you like this, it seems he does have some strength."

Red Lord said, surprised, as he looked at Shadow One's injuries.

"All of you, go kill that person and bring his corpse to me. Be careful, I want the whole corpse!"

Red Lord said, pointing to all the surrounding black-robed people.

"No need, all of you will die here."

A faint voice sounded, and Shi Yan's figure slowly walked out from the cave entrance.

"Who are you?!" Red Lord said, his expression wary.

"Didn't you say you wanted to kill me?"

Shi Yan's lips curled slightly. He spread his arms as if to embrace something and softly said, "I'm standing right here. Come and kill me quickly."

"Heh heh, how considerate, coming to your own death. Go!" Red Lord commanded.

"Yes!"

Red Lord ordered the dozen or so black-robed people around him to attack Shi Yan, while he himself stood still without moving. It wasn't that he didn't want to move, but rather that he couldn't leave the altar at all.

The methods these dozen or so black-robed people knew were very limited; apart from being able to shoot Gloom Gas, they had no other skills.

The two fastest people rushed directly in front of Shi Yan and shot two clumps of Gloom Gas at his head. Shi Yan easily dodged by flashing to the right. His arms turned blood-red and enlarged, and he directly slammed the heads of those two people into their chest cavities.

Before they died, a light of imminent great achievement still flickered in their eyes.

"..."

The other black-robed people silently stood still upon seeing this scene. No one dared to rush forward again. If Shi Yan could easily kill two people, he could easily kill them too.

"Come kill me!"

Shi Yan entered Blood Tattooed Transformation completely and instantly appeared in front of a black-robed person. His right hand directly pierced the person's neck.

"Ah!"

His figure flashed again, appearing in front of two other people. Their heads instantly disappeared from their original positions. This time, they didn't even make a sound.

"Don't you like killing people?"

Shi Yan's figure constantly flickered everywhere, harvesting lives one by one.

Finally, Shi Yan appeared in front of Shadow One, gripping his neck with his right hand, lifting him up, and slowly tightening his grip: "Fear? Despair?"

Shadow One's eyes were filled with pain. A Gloom Gas shot at Shi Yan's body, but it caused no damage at all.

With a crack, Shadow One stopped his movements. Shi Yan waved him away like throwing trash.

"Now... it's your turn." Shi Yan turned his head to look at Red Lord.

Shi Yan had already observed these people through the skill [Level Detection]. They were basically all Lv8, Lv9 trash, and only Red Lord's level was Lv11.

Moreover, Shi Yan also saw that Red Lord couldn't move freely, otherwise he would have jumped out and fought Shi Yan long ago.
