In the ring, the battle between Gu Ding and Karlosus had been going on for a while.

Karlosus was indeed stronger than Gu Ding had imagined. His combat effectiveness was already at the peak of a six-star half-step true god. That was not all. The key was that this guy's speed was too terrifying. He had already surpassed his strength by a grade and reached the peak of a seven-star half-step true god.

With Gu Ding's eyesight, he could not capture his opponent's movements at all. All he could see was a shadow. Fortunately, Gu Ding's martial arts realm had reached Illumination. Even at an absolute disadvantage in terms of speed, he could still sense his opponent's movement trajectory and determine the direction of his moves.

Therefore, what the audience below the ring saw was a white shadow charging at Gu Ding from different angles and trajectories. Gu Ding, on the other hand, stood calmly in place and used a variety of simple and effective moves to neutralize his opponent's attacks.

Every time the white shadow collided, there was a violent roar.

If not for the protective energy shield in the ring being strong enough, the energy waves caused by the battle would have shaken the ring and formed a terrifying storm.

"Karlosus may be fast, but he's helpless against a martial arts practitioner with a strong martial arts realm like Gu Ding. It's like he's met an impenetrable fortress."

The sixth level of Purgatory Gate was filled with powerhouses with powerful strength and extremely sharp eyesight. Most of them could tell that Karlosus could not do anything to Gu Ding in this battle.

"Yeah, Karlosus's high-frequency attacks are a huge burden on his body. Gu Ding is completely relying on his martial arts realm, so there's almost no burden on his body. At this rate, when Karlosus's stamina runs out and his speed slows down, Gu Ding should have no difficulty winning this battle. "

"It's too early to say that. Don't forget, Karlosus is a Blood Tribe. Once he transforms, his combat effectiveness will increase by at least a grade, and his speed will increase correspondingly. If Gu Ding only relies on his martial arts realm, I'm afraid he won't be able to withstand it. "

"That's true, but since Gu Ding chose to challenge him, he should have a trump card, right? He's only used his close combat ability in the past few days of challenges. He hasn't used any other means at all. "

There were also people who noticed this.

In fact, after Gu Ding entered the sixth level, he did not use his Demon Face or World Stars to fight others in order to break through the gene shackles in his body. He only used his physical body in close combat, so it was difficult for him to win some of the battles. Many people thought that he was purposely hiding his strength, because many people had seen his information and knew that he had a powerful demonic face summoning technique.

Only Gu Ding knew that every time he took an attack from his opponent, the gene shackles in his body would tremble.

Reid and Belinda had also teleported down from the first floor of the arena. The two of them quickly found Ring Eight and watched Gu Ding's battle from afar from behind the crowd.

"From the looks of it, Gu Ding will lose this battle." Belinda came to a conclusion after watching for a while.

"Why do you say that? He clearly has the upper hand right now. " After Reid asked this question, his gaze fell on Carlosus. "Is there something strange about that guy in white?"

"The guy in white is called Carlosus, and he's from the Blood Tribe. He's currently fighting Gu Ding in his normal state. If he transforms, not only will his combat effectiveness increase to a peak seven-star half-step True God, but his speed will also increase greatly, reaching the level of an eight-star half-step True God. "

"We've seen Gu Ding's trump card. One is to summon the Demon Face to attack his opponent. The other is to summon World Stars to attack from afar. However, with his opponent's speed, Gu Ding's trump card will not be effective against Carlosus. "

Belinda was not optimistic about Gu Ding's chances. Usually, opponents who specialized in speed were difficult to deal with. Not to mention that Carlosus's combat effectiveness was stronger than Gu Ding's.

"Summon World Stars?!" Reid was a little surprised when he heard this. Of course, he knew what it meant to summon World Stars, but he did not expect Gu Ding to have a Miniature World. Even though he had studied a lot of information about Gu Ding some time ago, he did not find any mention of this.

"It's normal that you don't know because we only found out that he had a Miniature World before he was arrested. The Federal Government did not record this information," Belinda quickly added.

Just as everyone below was discussing the situation of the battle, Carlosus, who had been attacking for a long time without success, finally became a little impatient.

With a sudden flash, he retreated explosively.

His slender figure floated in the void as he looked down at Gu Ding coldly. "A martial arts concept of Illumination Realm. This is a little beyond my expectations. You really are an era monster of the Human Camp. However, the more you are like this, the more I feel a sense of accomplishment defeating you. I can't be bothered to waste any more time with you. I'll show you my true strength. "

Gu Ding looked at his opponent indifferently. He guessed that his opponent was preparing to transform, but he did not plan to stop him. This was because he could clearly feel that as long as he suffered a stronger impact, it was very likely that he would be able to touch the genetic shackles of a medium deity.

In the void, Carlosus' eyes suddenly turned blood-red, and the muscles all over his body began to tremble in a strange manner. His facial expression became extremely ferocious, and the originally neat white teeth in his mouth turned into sharp thorns, as if his mouth was filled with white steel nails …

What was most special was that his shoulders had suddenly bulged up, and the sound of flesh growing could be heard from the bulge. Although it was very faint, everyone present could hear it clearly.

After a while, there was a sudden tearing sound as two black wings stretched out from his white suit. As if breaking out of a cocoon, the originally intact suit was torn to pieces.

Carlosus' entire upper body was suddenly exposed to everyone. A pair of black wings stretched out from his back and began to flap. Each flap stirred up a strong gust of wind.

"My combat effectiveness and speed have both increased by a grade. I'd like to see how many more moves you can take from me now." Carlosus smiled coldly. The wings on his back suddenly flapped, and his figure disappeared from where he stood.

Gu Ding's pupils shrank suddenly. His eyes could no longer capture his opponent's movements. Before his opponent transformed, he could barely see a shadow. Now, he could not even see a shadow. The moment his opponent flapped his wings, he disappeared from his line of sight. There was no trace of him that could be captured.

"To the right!"

However, Gu Ding's martial arts concept and instinct for danger allowed him to react immediately. He turned sideways to the right and crossed his arms to protect his head.

"Boom!"

A violent force slammed into Gu Ding's arm and sent him flying.

At the same time, Gu Ding felt that his right arm had been completely fractured by the blow. His back slammed violently into the protective shield of the arena, causing a series of ripples. At the same time, he felt a strong tremor in his internal organs.

However, a strange smile flashed across his face.

That was because he saw that the bronze gate had finally appeared in his soul space. Thousands of black chains made a pleasant sound as if they were being blown by the wind.

"You've finally appeared!"

Seeing Gu Ding stand up again, Carlosus licked his lips. With a flap of his wings, his figure disappeared from Gu Ding's sight once again.

"Boom! Boom! Boom! " Then, there was a continuous sound of collisions.

Gu Ding bent his body slightly and continued to defend himself. Carlosus' attacks poured down like a torrential rain.

In just a moment, Gu Ding's body had been hit countless times. There was not a single bone in his body that was intact. However, he did not dodge or fight back. He just let his opponent attack him.

"What's going on with Gu Ding? If he can't keep up with his speed, he shouldn't have been hit so many times. " Outside the ring, Reid felt a little strange. Logically speaking, if Gu Ding could defend against the first attack, he should be able to defend against the subsequent attacks. However, now he was simply letting his opponent attack him.

"It's possible that the first attack just now caused damage to his internal organs, affecting his body's functions. Although a physical cultivator is strong, some of their weaknesses are also fatal, "Belinda, who was beside him, speculated.

Meanwhile, most of Gu Ding's consciousness had sunk into his soul space. With the help of external forces, he began to attack the chains in a frenzy. In the blink of an eye, over a hundred chains had been shattered.

'Let's attack more fiercely!' Gu Ding shouted frantically in his heart.

On the other hand, Carlosus was attacking Gu Ding in a frenzy.

Gu Ding's back was leaning against the arena's protective shield. Waves of ripples kept vibrating, sending chills down everyone's spines. They all knew that to leave a ripple on the protective shield, it would take at least an attack from a six-star half-step True God. However, Carlosus was able to cause such a wide range of ripples on the protective shield from Gu Ding. His attack power was at least the strength of a seven-star half-step True God. Almost no one on the sixth floor of Hell Gate could withstand an attack of this strength unscathed.

"Carlosus, stop!" The black-armored referee finally intervened when he saw that Gu Ding did not have the slightest resistance.

Carlosus did not seem to hear him and continued to attack wildly.

Only then did the black-armored referee act. He grabbed Carlosus's arm and flung him away.

Meanwhile, Gu Ding, who was in his soul space, had already destroyed half of the chains. When he saw that his speed had suddenly slowed down, his consciousness returned to his body and he saw the referee appear in front of him.

"His consciousness is still there …" The black-armored referee frowned slightly. "Gu Ding, you'd better admit defeat. You'll die if you continue like this."

"I won't admit defeat!" Gu Ding shook his head firmly.

The referee hesitated for a moment, but in the end, he stepped aside.

However, to everyone's surprise, Gu Ding took the initiative to provoke Carlosus. "Did you not have breakfast? You're as weak as a girl. "

Carlosus had wanted to taunt Gu Ding, but he did not expect to be taunted instead. He was instantly enraged. A pair of wings flapped out again, and he charged toward Gu Ding. His heavy fists landed on Gu Ding's body. "Brat, I'm going to smash all the bones in your body into pieces with my fists today!"

Gu Ding only grinned provocatively.

"Boom! Boom! Boom! … "

The roar reached everyone's ears once again. Many of them could not understand why Gu Ding was digging his own grave.

"What the hell is Gu Ding doing? If he doesn't admit defeat, he'll die. Do you want me to stop the match? "Belinda frowned and turned to look at Reid.

"It seems like he's deliberately provoking his opponent … Let's wait and see." Reid did not think that Gu Ding was someone who would joke around with his life. Based on his understanding of Gu Ding, he must have a motive for doing so.

In the soul space, Gu Ding frantically bombarded the chains that bound the giant bronze door. One by one, the chains broke. This time, with the help of external forces, the speed was many times faster than before.

In less than twenty minutes, thousands of black chains were broken until only ten were left.

"Gu Ding, your vital signs are showing signs of danger. Either you give up or you break the remaining chains!" Neptune's warning came suddenly.

Gu Ding immediately increased his speed. He summoned the demon face and bombarded the last ten chains.

Kacha, kacha, kacha …

When the last chain broke, Gu Ding finally breathed a sigh of relief. The giant bronze door slowly opened.

Gu Ding did not have time to check what was hidden behind the giant bronze door. His consciousness immediately returned to his body. Almost at the same time, a brand new life force emerged from an unknown location and quickly spread to every corner of Gu Ding's body. Gu Ding's body also began to heal at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"What's happening?" It was not only Caruthers, but many of the spectators below also felt the new aura emanating from Gu Ding's body.

Many people also saw that Gu Ding's body began to heal. "Look, Gu Ding's body is automatically healing."

"This aura seems to be that of a Middle Rank deity. I see …" Reid finally understood why Gu Ding had deliberately provoked his opponent. "He's using his opponent's attack to break through to Middle Rank deity. As expected of Gu Ding, using such a risky method to advance. "

Faced with this strange state, Caruthers was somewhat unwilling to retreat. Instead, he accelerated his attacks, wanting to destroy Gu Ding's body that had already healed. However, he soon realized that everything he did was in vain.

"Are you done?" A voice suddenly rang out from the ring.

Below the ring, everyone saw that Gu Ding, who had almost been reduced to a pile of mud, was slowly getting up …
