In one of the rooms on the first floor of the Cultivation Tower, there was a mini hut.

Although the interior of the time acceleration hut did not look big, its external size could be changed, so it could be used anywhere. Placed in this small room, it was less than two meters tall, which made it look especially small.

The reason why he did not choose to go straight to the ninth floor was Neptune's suggestion. According to him, they were not in a hurry, so there was no need to waste points.

One point was equivalent to 1,000 Source Stones. One day of cultivation on the ninth floor of the Cultivation Tower would cost 500 points, which was 500,000 Source Stones. Although the ninth floor had a time acceleration effect of 500 times, the time ratio in the time acceleration hut was also 100 times, so the cultivation speed was not slow.

Gu Ding sat cross-legged on the floor of the time acceleration hut. He took out the box that Oliver had asked him to sign for and opened the lid. There were six Exploding Bodhi inside.

The six Exploding Bodhi were the size of a fist and were completely black. Only the top part, which looked like a bomb fuse, was green. No matter how he looked at it, it looked like a bomb from Cerule's comics from hundreds of years ago.

Gu Ding picked one up and studied it carefully. After a while, he asked, "How do I eat this thing?"

"Of course, just swallow it. You can't bite through it. If you do, it will explode." Neptune's tone sounded a little naughty.

"But it's so big …" Gu Ding frowned slightly. It was the first time he was worried about food. Since young, he had never been a picky eater. Basically, other than his own dark cuisine, he was not picky about other people's food as long as it was edible. However, it was more troublesome to eat something that was particular about the way it was eaten.

After hesitating for a while, he put the fruit in his mouth and opened his mouth as wide as he could. He felt a sticky, fragrant liquid automatically enter his mouth, down his throat, and into his stomach. After a while, the Exploding Bodhi in his hand disappeared.

"Hahaha …" Gu Ding heard Neptune's laughter. "You idiot, you really believed it. You can't stuff it in with your mouth open so wide. This Exploding Bodhi only needs to come into contact with the enzyme in your saliva to melt and enter your stomach. "

"I knew it was nothing good …"

In fact, Gu Ding had guessed that it might be a prank by Neptune because the guy's tone would become strange every time he pulled a prank. However, he was not sure whether the fruit would explode or not, so he could only try according to what Neptune said.

After swallowing the fruit, Gu Ding immediately collected his thoughts and asked in a serious tone, "What should we do now?"

"After the Exploding Bodhi enters your stomach, it will reform in your lower abdomen. You must first unleash your full battle prowess, then direct the Divine Fire to your lower abdomen and ignite the green stem of the Exploding Bodhi. After igniting it, you must immediately disperse the Divine Fire. "

"The explosion will happen very quickly. If the Divine Fire doesn't disperse in time, it's very likely that the Divine Fire will be blasted to other parts of your body by the aftermath of the explosion, causing a burning effect on your body. This is because under the impact of the explosion, there is a high chance that your consciousness on the Divine Flame will be erased, and it will become an ownerless Divine Flame that will attack everything in its way, including your body. "

"After the explosion, don't activate your Heaven-Devouring Earth divine power. Instead, use your body to withstand the explosion and guide the energy to break through your cultivation. If the Heaven-Devouring Earth divine power is activated, the violent energy will be devoured, and the gentle energy feedback will not be able to complete the breakthrough of a small rank. Therefore, you must pay special attention to this. "

Neptune's tone finally became serious. This time, it was obvious that he was not joking.

"I understand!"

Gu Ding did not want his closed-door cultivation to be ruined. If his cultivation could break through to a 5-star Medium Deity, coupled with the corresponding improvement in all other aspects, his strength would also increase to another level.

He focused his mind and drew out a wisp of Nirvana Fire from his soul space. He slowly immersed it into his abdomen, then carefully touched the stem of the Exploding Bodhi that was like a fuse.

The moment he touched it, Gu Ding immediately controlled the wisp of flame to enter a state of Nirvana. It turned into a tinder and went completely silent.

Almost at the same time, the stem quickly burned, and in a moment, it had burned into the interior of the Black Bodhi.

"Bang bang! Bang bang! Bang bang! "

The Black Bodhi was supported by the internal energy, and it kept expanding until it became a fiery red color. Cracks kept appearing on its surface. It was like a heart full of cracks, swelling and shrinking. It beat like this three times, and finally exploded with a loud bang …

At the moment of the explosion, Gu Ding's body shook, and he could not help but spit out a mouthful of blood.

The violent black energy was like a storm raging in Gu Ding's body, tearing apart every organ, every muscle, and even every blood vessel in his body …

If one were to look at Gu Ding from the outside, one would see that his entire body had started to swell, and his clothes had burst open. He was like a human-shaped balloon that kept growing in size.

Gu Ding endured the splitting pain all over his body as he guided the violent energy to permeate his cells, and even penetrate deep into his genetic level to carry out further modifications.

Gu Ding's cells continued to die and regenerate as they were filled with energy. They continued to divide and become stronger. The shackles wrapped around the gene chains in his body also broke under the impact of the energy, and new gene chains began to form.

After an unknown amount of time, a series of shackles broke, and new gene chains condensed. Gu Ding's cells gradually stabilized, and they were filled with more power. Gu Ding's swollen body finally returned to its original size.

Gu Ding opened his eyes and let out a long breath. "This method of advancement is too dangerous. If I'm not careful, my body might completely explode, and I'll die without a trace. "

"Don't worry, I won't let you try something I'm not sure of. Before I came up with this plan, I simulated your body's data and the intensity of the explosion of the Exploding Bodhi, and built a model to run thousands of tests. The test results show that the success rate is 96.8%. Moreover, you have the Swallow the Heavens and Earth divine power in your body. If you can't hold on, you'll have to waste an Exploding Bodhi and use your divine power to absorb all the energy. "

Gu Ding's success was already within Neptune's expectations. The reason why he did not mention it before was because he was afraid that Gu Ding would relax after hearing about the high success rate. Now, he was saying it because Gu Ding had experienced the power of the Exploding Bodhi. He knew that an explosion inside and an explosion outside were two completely different things. Now, Gu Ding was completely sure that if he did not give it his all, his body would most likely be completely destroyed.

After Gu Ding adjusted his body's condition, he took out a second Exploding Bodhi and swallowed it directly …

What Gu Ding did not know was that while he was in the Cultivation Tower, something that was related to him had happened in Purgatory Gates.

Carruthers, who had fought with Gu Ding in the Arena before, had died after a few days of resuscitation.

His body had been severely damaged by Gu Ding, and almost all of his cells had collapsed. Due to repeated serious damage, the recovery ability of his cells had been completely wiped out. Even the powerful cell repair agent could only prevent his injuries from worsening.

After soaking in the pseudo-spiritual grade powerful cell repair cabin for seven days, his injuries had finally worsened, and his body had completely disintegrated into a pile of bloody foam.

Even the keeper in charge of guarding Carothers was seeing this for the first time.

Soon, the news of Carothers' death was announced to the public by the Warden.

Carothers' death also declared Gu Ding guilty of murder. What awaited Gu Ding was no longer a match in the arena, but a heavy fine and confinement.

The three commanders wanted to help, but they couldn't do anything.

Killing an opponent in the arena without signing a life and death contract was against the rules of Purgatory Gates. Moreover, this matter had been made public, and everyone on the sixth floor of Purgatory Gates knew about it. If they were to cover up for Gu Ding now, it would be blatantly ignoring the rules of Purgatory Gates. If the other prisoners found out, no one would follow the rules anymore. Moreover, the three of them could not openly help Gu Ding, or else Gu Ding's identity would be suspected.

"What do the two of you think we should do about Gu Ding?" Bygraves frowned. He was the eldest of the three guard commanders, but he had no idea what to do at the moment.

"Boss, although we are outside of many of the rules, there are some rules that we can't blatantly violate. If Gu Ding is exempted from punishment this time, Purgatory Gates will really be difficult to manage in the future. "Katchipur was the second eldest among the three guard commanders, and he still preferred to handle things according to the rules.

"The key problem is that people in the Confinement Space can't cultivate, and people will grow older in there. With Gu Ding's qualifications, his strength is still in a period of rapid growth. If he is locked up in the Confinement Space for a few years, it will mean that his growth is interrupted, and it will affect his future achievements. If that senior finds out that we locked him up in the Confinement Space, it is very likely that he will massacre the entire Cosmic Sea. "

Bygraves was not worried about whether Gu Ding could break out of prison within three years, but he was worried that Gu Ding's biological father would find out about this. He might fly into a rage and massacre the entire Cosmic Sea. After all, they had seen that man wipe out the entire Dark Nation overnight. Before the Dark Nation was wiped out, they were more than ten times stronger than the Human Camp.

"Boss, if we really can't do it, let's activate that," the third eldest, Gable, suddenly said after a moment of silence.

"You mean the one in the Confinement Space? No, absolutely not. With Gu Ding's strength, he will definitely fall. "Bygraves quickly waved his hand.

"That might not be the case. Since he is that person's son, he must have left something on Gu Ding to protect his life. Moreover, for an era monster like Gu Ding, his luck is quite terrifying. Otherwise, he would not have been able to kill the Dark Nation's Night Demon, who was blessed by the heavens. "The second eldest, Katchipur, also agreed with the third eldest's suggestion.

"Boss, you're wrong about one thing. If Gu Ding falls, that man can resurrect him. However, if Gu Ding's achievements are affected, then it will be irreparable. "The third eldest, Gable's words caused the other two to look at him.

Bygraves lowered his head in silence for a moment, then slowly nodded. "Alright, it seems like this is the only way. Let's take a risk. If Gu Ding survives, his improvement will be many times better than if he cultivated hard in the Hell Gate. It will also be a great opportunity for him … "
