Chapter 501

Even if it was only a corner of the ancient battlefield that had collapsed, now that hundreds of eras had passed, the mainland that had been floating in the space-time turbulence for countless years had now formed an independent world.

It was as if the sky was shrouded in gray fog, making the whole world always gray in color, and no one knew where the light source in the sky came from. There was no day or night in this world, and it seemed to always be gray.

There were only gravel and sand on the ground, and not a single plant could be seen. As for the snakes, insects, rats, and ants that were good at living in the gravel, there was no sign of them at all. It was as if it was a world without any life.

After a day of running, Lilliath harvested four more silver skeleton puppets, expanding the number of her skeleton army to thirty-two.

Gu Ding and the others sat steadily on top of the tallest skeleton's head. The thirty-two silver skeletons' footsteps left deep dents in the ground as they ran, causing the ground to tremble as if there was an earthquake.

The first destination that Neptune found for everyone was a remnant of a Martial Mark, with only a few bronze skeletons wandering nearby.

A silver skeleton rushed over and with a wave of its hand, smashed several bronze skeletons into pieces. Then, with a kick, the remaining two bronze skeletons were crushed into pieces. It took less than a second to end the battle.

This Martial Mark was not strong. It was only left behind by a Level Two Consonance Level powerhouse. In terms of martial arts, it was similar to Biggie's, just slightly stronger. However, in terms of attack strength, it was much stronger than Biggie's. It was left behind by at least a Gold Level warrior or an even stronger Platinum Level warrior. The reason why it could survive for so long was probably related to the fact that this world was completely sealed.

Gu Ding and the others were a little shocked when they saw the golden skeleton that had been cut vertically in half. This skeleton was more than ninety thousand meters tall. Just by looking at the height of the skeleton, they could tell that the deceased was a top-notch powerhouse among the Gold Level warriors when he was alive. It was beheaded like this, and it did not fall to the ground after its death. Instead, it remained standing.

Gu Ding and the others were not worried that the skeleton would wake up. Its body had been destroyed to this extent, and there was no way for it to retain its fighting will for long. Even if there were remnants of it, it would not be able to control its body to attack.

"Perfect Spirit Resonance Martial Mark is just right for us at the moment." Gu Ding could sense the level of the remaining martial marks from afar. He leaped high above the top of the Silver Skeleton's head and landed on the Golden Skeleton's kneecap. Then, he quickly climbed up.

Phaser and the rest leaped up one by one and climbed up the wall.

Liliath pouted. She still had not mastered the martial arts concept. It was not that she was stupid, but her major was Pupillary Skills, and her minor was firearms. She had not found a suitable concept to use as a reference, so she had not been able to get started.

However, when she saw that everyone had jumped up, she gave the Silver Skeleton a guard command, so she followed them.

Gu Ding was the first to climb on top of the golden skeleton's head, followed by Phaser and the rest.

Gu Ding crouched down on the top of the golden skeleton's head where it had been cut off. He reached out two fingers and touched the cut mark.

The moment he touched it, a cold martial arts concept was transmitted from his fingertips. Gu Ding's mind was in a trance, and in the next moment, it was as if he had returned to hundreds of eras ago and turned into this huge golden warrior.

Above his head, a black shadow flashed. It was an exotic beast that walked upright. Its silver-gray eyes stared coldly at him, as if it was a hunter staring at its prey.

Then, the exotic beast suddenly rushed toward him. Gu Ding wanted to punch it, but he found that his body was not under his control. Only then did he remember that he was just a spectator who had possessed the body of a Golden Warrior. He could not change the direction of history. The golden-armored warrior seemed to be a little afraid of the exotic beast. The moment he saw it, he was a little dazed. However, in that moment of daze, the exotic beast's originally normal tail suddenly transformed into a long knife connected by chains. The tip of the tail was like a blade as it slashed down.

In the next moment, Gu Ding's vision went black and he returned to reality. He was drenched in cold sweat.

He squatted on the spot and desperately tried to recall the attack just now. He tried to simulate the scene in his mind, but he found that even if he were to face the exotic beast, he would not be able to avoid the fate of being killed. This was because no matter how he dodged, the exotic beast's chain-like tail would chase after him. His strength was not as good as the other party. There was no way he could defend himself and could only be killed.

"Are you okay?" Neptune could not help but ask when he noticed Gu Ding's abnormality. He could not see what Gu Ding had seen through his mind, so he did not know what had happened to Gu Ding.

Gu Ding then relayed what he had seen to Neptune. He could not help but ask, "Do you know what that exotic beast is?"

"It has the body of a human, black fur, a metal beak, five fingers like a human, and feet like a bird. It walks upright on both feet, but it also has a tail that can transform into a knife … "

Neptune pieced together Gu Ding's description and compared it with the database. After a while, he projected a projection. His voice sounded a little nervous. "You're not talking about this, are you?!"

Gu Ding looked at the projection that Neptune had projected. It was exactly the same as what he had seen before the tail had transformed.

"Yes, this is it. Do you know what it is?"

"This creature is called a Martial Hunter. It's an extremely evil foreign race. They are at the top of the food chain, and all living things are their prey. They can advance and become stronger by devouring biological energy. They can also obtain the memories of the living things they devour. They even have higher intelligence than ancient humans and are considered an extremely dangerous existence. In ancient times, the end of human rule was mainly caused by the invasion of the Martial Hunter. "

"This black Martial Hunter is the weakest kind. It's called a soldier beast and its combat effectiveness is only half-step true god-level. Further up are the General Beasts. Their bodies are silver-gray and they all have true god-level combat effectiveness. There are even stronger ones, but I don't have enough authority to search for relevant information. "

Neptune's words were not only meant for Gu Ding's ears, but also for everyone else present.

Seeing Neptune's projection and serious tone, Liliath and the rest did not dare to be negligent. They memorized the creature's appearance.

"You guys really have to be careful from now on. I didn't expect the existence of Martial Hunter on this mainland, so I didn't explore the area ten thousand meters underground. I did a thorough check just now, and the situation is not optimistic. There are currently more than thirty thousand Martial Hunter Beasts sleeping underground, and three of them are silver-gray. We can only hope that they don't wake up from their slumber. Otherwise, not only us, but the Dark Generation guys will probably not be able to leave this site alive. "

"Therefore, from now on, I have two requirements for you guys. First, if there's any battle, you have to end it as soon as possible to avoid large-scale energy fluctuations. Second, try not to attack the ground to avoid touching the Martial Hunter Beasts buried ten thousand meters below. "

Neptune's tone was extremely strict. Gu Ding and the rest did not dare to interrupt. They only nodded and took note of Neptune's words.

Everyone on top of the golden skeleton quieted down as they silently experienced the martial arts concept left behind by the Martial Hunter Beasts.

"This looks like a saber concept, but it's very special."

Phaser frowned slightly. Other than Gu Ding, no one else knew that this was the concept left behind by a Martial Hunter Beasts. As for the Martial Hunter Beasts that Neptune mentioned earlier, they thought that it was just a sudden discovery by Neptune. They did not think that it had anything to do with the martial marks left on the skeleton.

"This concept was left behind by a Martial Hunter Beasts."

Gu Ding could not help but explain, but he did not say anything else. He continued to experience the feeling that the saber had brought him. His martial arts concept was now complete in Nuance, and he was only one step away from entering Consonance Realm. He knew that he was not far from a breakthrough.

Everyone else also had a slight realization. Although it was not enough to break through their current level, the concept was also a kind of accumulation. Once this accumulation increased, breaking through the current level would become a natural thing.

Lilliath was the only one who did not gain anything. She also touched the cut mark like Gu Ding and the rest, but she, who had not even entered Nuance, did not feel anything at all. It was just like how people who had never learned calligraphy would not be able to appreciate the unique cursive script. They would only think that it was a scribble.

Therefore, Lilliath could only sit where she was and continue to ponder the Pupil inheritance that she had obtained.

Gu Ding and the rest sat there for the whole day. Dockett and the rest came out of the state of enlightenment one after another, leaving only Gu Ding sitting there.

"You guys head to the next destination first. I'm afraid Gu Ding won't wake up anytime soon. He's likely to use this opportunity to break through to Consonance Realm in martial arts," Neptune said to Lilliath and the rest. "When he breaks through, I'll let him catch up to you."

"Then I'll leave a few silver skeletons to guard us." Lilliath was a little worried.

"Just leave one behind for transportation." Neptune felt that there was no need to leave too many. If necessary, he could let Gu Ding come out of cultivation.

"Alright then!" Lilliath nodded and left the largest one for Gu Ding. After giving new instructions, she left with the other silver skeletons.

This time, Lilliath did not let them run wildly. Instead, she let them fly in the air to avoid making noise and waking up the Martial Hunter Beasts.

Gu Ding, on the other hand, sat where he was. Images of Consonance Realm martial arts appeared in his mind one by one …
