Leaving the city of Ulla, Gudin spent more than three months in the nearby Saar Mountains. For more than three months, he lived like a wild man, chasing down the true god-level demon beasts in the Sal Mountains every day to exercise his actual combat ability. When it is not a last resort, resolutely do not use soul attacks.

This also led him to fall into a desperate situation of almost death many times.

Especially once, a fourth-sequence true god-level Howling Moon Demon Wolf chased and killed Gu Ding for more than 30,000 kilometers all the way. Gu Ding used all his strength, fleeing while fighting, and even the emperor's body was used, but it was caught and torn apart by the demon beast. It wasn't until the end that he was caught up by the demon beast and bit off half of his body, and in desperation, he killed the other party with a soul attack.

However, after more than three months of training and cultivation, Gu Ding not only gained an improvement in his actual combat ability, but also broke through to the strength of the fourth sequence of true gods.

Facts have proved that every time something like the emperor body is broken and repaired again, there will be a significant improvement. In addition, there is no shortage of red blood crystals rich in qi and blood energy in Gu Ding's hands, so a breakthrough is also expected.

For more than three months, Gooding also released Bartholomew in the state of the Red Flame Demon Tree. In this new form, he would not be noticed by Celestine. In the past three months, Bartholomew also instructed Guding several times, and with his god-level cultivation and vision, many of the suggestions proposed are very practical and valuable. And most of the time, Bartholomew was in the depths of the Thrall Mountains, using the branches of the Red Flame Demon Tree to tease those eighth-rank and even ninth-sequence true god-level demon beasts. Therefore, for more than three months, those demon beasts in the Saar Mountains have had a miserable life every day.

"The martial arts conference should start in the near future, with your strength, the rank of half-step true god. The first must be you. Bartholomew affirmed. Before you go back, though, we have one more thing to do. ”

"What is it?" Gooding was slightly surprised when he heard this.

"I'm going to block out your cultivation, the divine source and the divine fire in your body." Bartholomew writhed the branches. "Because your cultivation is invisible in front of the gods, I can see through it at a glance. That also shows that Celestine can also see through it at a glance. Also, there are no Divine Source cultivators in this world, as long as you see that you have a Divine Source in your body, Celestine will definitely know that you are not a person from this world. ”

"However, the people of this world are generally very weak in soul cultivation, how can this be disguised?" Guding suddenly thought of this.

"Don't worry about this, you don't have to hide the strength of your soul. If Celestine asks, you say. You once bought a black stone at a stall, and after swallowing it, the strength of your soul skyrocketed. Bartholomew said, condensing an illusory image in the void, a black crystal, like a black gem. This is an abyss soul crystal that can directly increase the strength of the soul, and Celestine is definitely no stranger to this kind of thing. With the ubiquitous nature of those guys in the Abyss Plane, they have explored this world. And then it is not impossible to leave some traces, and Celestine certainly does not suspect it. ”

Gooding had no choice but to nod when he heard this. He was reluctant to lie, but there was no other way.

"Are you ready?" Bartholomew's two branches stretched out.

Gooding nodded, "That's it." ”

The two branches wrapped around Gu Ding's arms, and then, a strange energy entered Gu Ding's body. After a while, several formations appeared in Gu Ding's body. Shield Gu Ding's cultivation, the divine source in his body, and the divine fire in the soul space.

"I'm just using a shield, not a seal. So you have to pay attention to yourself, and never fight with the divine source. Fight for another three days in this mountain range, familiarize yourself with the battle without the divine source, and use the pure physical strength of the battle. Three days later, we went back to Ula to sign up. Bartholomew arranged for Gooding's last three days of training.

Over the next three days, Gooding quickly adapted to fighting without the use of the Divine Source, and Bartholomew was able to reclaim his storage space and leave the Thrall Mountains.

Back in Ula City, Guding went straight to the registration point for the martial arts tournament.

This day is the first day of registration, and the registration point is crowded. made Gooding a little suspicious that everyone in the city had signed up.

Helplessly lined up at the end of a line, looking at the long queue in front of him, Gooding had to chat with the Sea Emperor to pass the time.

"Seven months have passed, and in five months, I can leave this world and return to the gates of Purgatory. With my current strength, if I open the Emperor's Body, it should be enough to enter the eighth layer of the Purgatory Gate and get the thing that can escape from prison, right? ”

On the eighth layer of the Purgatory Gate, the prisoners imprisoned are all the powerhouses of the first sequence of true gods, but according to the cross-level combat power of those prisoners of the Purgatory Gate, it is not impossible for the prisoners of the fourth sequence of true god level to appear.

"That's not necessarily, the eighth layer of the Purgatory Gate does not rule out the combat power reaching the existence of the fourth sequence of true gods. And you don't know about those guys who are imprisoned, they are all really vicious and vicious, and there will be no weaker ones than you in actual combat experience. According to my estimate, if your strength reaches the fifth sequence of true gods, you should be able to get that thing in your hands. ”

"However, in this way, you only need one year and three months to leave the gate of purgatory, and the three-year period is too much in advance." The Sea Emperor then gave a strange-sounding Jianyì, "I, Jianyì, don't leave the Purgatory Gate immediately after you get that item. Instead, they continue to practice at the Gate of Purgatory, and after the three-year period has arrived, they will leave the Gate of Purgatory. Because to be honest, I personally think that the Purgatory Gate is a pretty good place to cultivate, and there are many very good opponents. ”

"I've thought about it too, but let's just go with the flow and make a decision when I get it." Gooding hadn't made up his mind about this yet, because he had told everyone about the three-year covenant before, so the cultivation plan formulated by Liliat and them should also be based on the three-year period. If someone is in retreat during this period, even if they are released from prison, they will not be able to gather everyone in a short period of time.

"There's one more thing I think I should tell you about." The Sea Emperor was silent for a moment, and then suddenly spoke, "I always feel. Killing that guy named Celestine this time shouldn't be so easy to do. Of course, there's no basis for me to say this, but I have this intuition. I think you'll have to be careful and try to get out of the fight as soon as possible. In case Bartholomew's move didn't work, that Celestine didn't die. As long as you change your face and hide again, you can wait for the end of the one-year period to be teleported away......"

Gu Ding and the Sea Emperor chatted without a word, and more than four hours passed quickly, and Gu Ding finally lined up at the front of the line.

"Name, age, cultivation level, these things are all filled in by yourself, don't miss them!" The registrant was visibly impatient, but he had been sitting here for so long. It's impossible to say the same thing to everyone, and it's unlikely that you'll want him to be positive all the time.

Gooding didn't care, just filled out the form and handed it back.

The registrant took the registration form and looked at it, "Age 1600?" ”

This 1600 was changed by the Sea Emperor Gu Ding, and at the beginning Gu Ding filled in the 16, the Sea Emperor said that it was too eye-catching, so he added two zeros to the back. But even so. The registrant was still surprised.

Hearing the voice of the registrant, many people looked towards Gooding. There was a look of surprise in his eyes.

Because the strength of Qi and Blood that Gu Ding is currently showing is the strength of the Seven-Star Half-Step True God. In this world, those who have reached this cultivation are basically over 10,000 years old, and they have this kind of cultivation at the age of 1,600, which is already a very remarkable genius.

Gooding nodded, and asked rhetorically. "Questions?"

"I didn't ...... No problem. The registrant's attitude immediately changed, and he put on a smiling face, "This is your challenge card, you put it away, don't lose it." The number above. is your challenge number. For specific rules, please check the previous signboard. ”

Gooding took the half-palm-sized green sign and looked down at it, and the number on the sign was 9527. I was also a little surprised that I came to line up early in the morning, and the number was already close to 10,000.

After taking a few steps forward, Gooding saw the sign that the man had just mentioned, and he looked up.

On the billboard, there are actually few rules for the competition.

Guding just glanced at it and knew the general situation, "It turns out that every city has a first-step screening competition, and only those who pass the preliminary screening can really participate in the preliminary round of the martial arts conference." ”

"Each main city has three thousand places for each rank, and each side city has one hundred places for each rank. It looks like the competition is quite fierce. The Sea Emperor's voice suddenly came, with a hint of schadenfreude in his tone.

"It's not fair, there will be a gap in the strength of the people in each city, and one affiliated city can enter the top hundred, but in another affiliated city may not be able to enter." Gooding didn't think the rule was fair.

"If there are too many strong people in one city, the contestants can go to other cities to sign up, and there is no limit. It's just that a person can only register for the competition at one registration point. Besides, this thing can't be absolutely fair. "The Sea Emperor gave a different opinion." In fact, no matter how the quota is allocated, it makes no difference to the truly strong. ”

For the last sentence of the Sea Emperor, Gooding also recognized very much, the real powerhouse, no matter which city to sign up for, will definitely stand out in the end.

Walking away from the sign, Gooding returned to his hotel, patiently waiting for the screening to arrive three days later.

Sweet, there is wood? After people drink it, they want to lick the lid of the cup. Take another dose of medicine at night, and you should be fine when you wake up tomorrow. In the past two days, I also broke the record of the fastest use of paper pumping in my life, a pack of 200 sheets of paper I bought the morning before yesterday, and I completely used it up last night, and it took about 36 hours~ YES! Today, it is estimated that it was used less than 30 sheets a day, and it feels weak~~] (to be continued......)
