Chapter 406

In the Devil Suppression Tower, everyone was on four different floors.

Gu Ding's crew was on the sixteenth floor except for Gu Ding. Luo Luoli and Gail were on the same floor as them. However, the teleportation of the fake door had sent everyone to different locations, and they were scattered all around.

Clark and Brog were on the fourth floor. The two of them followed the signal left by Gail all the way to the fifth floor. He did not dare to fly too fast because he had to keep an eye out for any signals left by Gail. He could not afford to be careless. Once they missed the signal, it would be very difficult to find the exit of the floor. Unless they went back and found the signal they missed and determined the right direction. However, Clark didn't want to make such a choice. He guessed that Aurora was very likely not far behind them.

Aurora, on the other hand, was about to reach the entrance to the fourth level. He was flying much faster than Clark and the others because he was able to sense the lingering auras, unlike Clark, who had to pay attention to the presence of a secret signal. The reason why Aurora had not caught up to them for so long was because of his murderous nature. Once he sensed a herd of beasts within a certain range, his murderous nature would lead him to the location of the herd. He would only continue to chase after them when the herd was completely slaughtered.

Gu Ding, on the other hand, was lying unconscious beside a pile of rubble on the sixth floor, less than ten kilometers away from the nearest herd of beasts. This was also what Neptune was worried about. If the wind was favorable, Gu Ding's human scent would easily spread to the noses of the beasts. If that happened, Gu Ding would be torn apart and devoured by the beasts before Aurora could arrive.

When Gu Ding was awake, his highest combat effectiveness was peak Medium Deity. However, Gu Ding's cultivation was not even a demigod, and the basic strength of his body was comparable to that of a two-star Lower Deity. Even with the thousand-fold increase of the Devil Elephant Realm of the Nature Manifestation Body, his body was only that of a five-star Lower Deity. On the sixth floor, all the beasts were two-star beasts, which were comparable to a Medium Deity. These beasts could easily tear Gu Ding's body apart while he was unconscious.

Neptune did not have any good ideas. He told Lilliath that he would solve the problem here to reassure them. In fact, he had no idea what to do.

"Gu Ding, wake up! Gu Ding, you have to wake up … "Neptune could only shout in Gu Ding's ear over and over again, hoping that he could hear him.

As time ticked by, Clark and Brogg reached the fifth floor. Aurora's journey to the fourth floor was also more than half complete.

The Sea Emperor began to consider whether he would be willing to expose his existence and borrow Brog's power.

Just as the thought crossed his mind, a gust of wind blew from Gu Ding's direction toward the herd of beasts.

"Oh no!" Neptune noticed the change in the first place, but he was unable to interfere with the changes in the natural world at the moment. He could only watch it happen helplessly. "We're only ten kilometres away from the horde … Brogg and the others won't be able to make it in time …"

Sure enough, as Neptune had feared, the gust of wind carried the scent of human blood on Gu Ding's body into the herd.

That herd of beasts was a pack of bloodthirsty mastiffs. Their sense of smell was the most sensitive among all the two-star beasts. Soon, the first mastiff sniffed the scent and suddenly stood up from the ground. Saliva dripped from the corner of its mouth as it drooled at the delicious food. Then, the second one, the third one … The whole pack of wolves soon detected this delicious smell.

A giant cyan wolf that was twice the size of the other Mastiffs suddenly let out a howl. It was the leader of this pack of wolves. Its body was more than 20 meters long, and its aura was clearly much stronger than the other Mastiffs.

"I didn't expect the leader of this pack to be a mutated mastiff. It has a little genetic atavism and inherited a trace of the ancient divine beast, the Moon Celestial Wolf's bloodline. In this sixth floor, I'm afraid this guy's strength is worthy of being called the king. " Neptune scanned the pack slightly and got the alpha's information. His mood became more and more gloomy.

After the alpha's howl, the pack of wolves began to quickly rush in Gu Ding's direction. In just a few seconds, they arrived at Gu Ding's location and surrounded him.

"Gu Ding, wake up!" Under such circumstances, Neptune could only hope that Gu Ding would wake up.

However, his hope was just an extravagant hope. Gu Ding did not show any signs of waking up.

The Green Wolf King stepped out of the pack of wolves, and a pair of icy blue eyes fell on Gu Ding. It walked to Gu Ding's side and used its nose to sniff Gu Ding's scent. Its saliva flowed out uncontrollably and dripped onto the ground. Some even dripped onto Gu Ding's chest.

Suddenly, the giant mouth bit down on Gu Ding. It did not even chew and used its tongue to suck Gu Ding into its stomach. After swallowing Gu Ding, it licked its lips as if it had not had enough. Only then did it lead the pack of wolves toward a nearby small pack of beasts.

In less than ten minutes, the small pack of beasts was completely devoured by the wolf pack. Only then did the wolf return to its lair.

The green wolf king was lying on a black boulder, basking in the sun of the tower. When it thought about eating a human today, it was in a good mood. This was an opportunity that only came once in a thousand years. Under the comfortable sunlight, the warmth from its fur to its body allowed it to quickly lie down on the boulder and fall into a deep sleep.

As for Gu Ding, he was submerged in a layer of viscous liquid. It was the wolf king's gastric juices. Neptune could only watch as Gu Ding's body began to corrode at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"Is my journey with Gu Ding finally coming to an end?" Neptune silently watched as Gu Ding's body decayed and festered until white bones were exposed from his head. There was no sign of life.

As time passed, the white bones did not last long under the corrosion of the gastric juices. In less than half an hour, they were softened by the gastric juices and slowly disappeared.

Neptune, who had been hoping for a miracle, watched the scene in a daze. He could not help but murmur, "Gu Ding is really dead …"

Just as he was about to lose all hope, a column of blood suddenly spurted out from the wall of the sticky stomach. Then, a second column, a third column … The scarlet blood condensed into a ball in the stomach. The ball floated in the air as if it had a will of its own, continuously absorbing more blood.

Neptune also saw that the giant green wolf had died unknowingly.

In less than three minutes, its huge body had turned into nutrients for the blood ball in the air, leaving not a single trace behind.

Seeing this change, the wolves howled at the ball of blood.

The blood ball suddenly spun, bringing with it a terrifying suction force that sucked in hundreds of thousands of wolves.

In less than half an hour, the largest pack of beasts on the sixth floor had completely disappeared. In the sky, the blood ball was still spinning.

Neptune also noticed that the Inventory had opened on its own, and the remaining blood of the crimson beasts stored in it had all been sucked into the blood ball. Even the Vitality pills, including the bottle of Phoenix Blood Nirvana Pills, were all sucked into the blood ball.

At this moment, Clark and Brog had already reached the sixth floor. The moment they stepped onto the sixth floor, the two of them could clearly feel a frightening aura permeating the entire sixth floor. The aura wasn't particularly powerful, but for some reason, it made the two of them tremble in fear.

"Did you feel it too?" Clark saw that Brog's expression had turned as ugly as his, and he knew that Brog had felt it as well.

Brog nodded. "Don't complicate things. Let's leave this floor as soon as possible! Aurora alone is enough of a headache, and now there's an unknown powerhouse. "

"If he released his aura like that, Aurora will definitely be attracted to him. This is a good thing for us!" Clark nodded in agreement. "Normally, I would love to see a fight between powerhouses like this, but that strange aura makes me feel like I'll die if I get close."

"I feel the same way. This aura is even more dangerous than Aurora's!" Brog had the same feeling as well.

"Let's go!" In the end, the two of them did not plan to join in the fun. At their level of cultivation, their senses were usually very accurate. Naturally, they did not dare to approach the source of the aura carelessly, and they ran directly toward the entrance of the seventh floor.

Not long after the two of them left, Aurora appeared where they had been standing, and she immediately sensed the aura that Gu Ding was emitting. She raised her head to look in the direction that Clark and Brog had escaped, but did not chase after them. Instead, she turned around and sped in Gu Ding's direction.

Neptune naturally noticed this as well, and he was slightly worried for Gu Ding. After all, the evil sword of death in Aurora's hand was something that had been created by the King of the Dead. Neptune did not know what level of powerhouse the King of the Dead was, but he was certain that the King of the Dead was at least a Tier 3 lifeform. Naturally, something created by such a powerhouse would not be simple.

In the sky, the bloody orb spun slowly like a powerful monarch, and it spread a terrifying aura in all directions, causing all the monsters on the sixth floor to tremble in fear.

Aurora, on the other hand, was approaching the bloody orb at a rapid speed.

In less than twenty minutes, she appeared less than a hundred meters away from the bloody orb in a flash. She gripped the black longsword tightly in her hand, and raised it from afar, the tip of the sword pointed straight at the bloody orb.
