Chapter 637

A year had passed. Inside Purgatory Gates, the three guardian commanders appeared at the stone door of the Confinement Space at the same time.

"A year has passed. If there are no accidents, Gu Ding should be teleported back today." Bygraves was a little nervous when he said this.

"I hope he didn't die …" Beside him, Kaqipur was also very worried.

Although Gablil did not say a word, his face was also full of worry.

Fortunately, the location of the Confinement Space was relatively remote. Prisoners were basically unwilling to go near this area. Moreover, there was no need for guardians to guard this area, so there were usually not many people around. Otherwise, if anyone saw the three of them appearing here, they would definitely be surprised. A prisoner coming out of the Confinement Space was welcomed by three guardian commanders. This kind of treatment was too special.

As time passed, the three of them became more and more restless, and the expressions on their faces became more and more unpleasant.

"Boss, did we remember the time wrong?" Gablil finally could not help but ask.

"Do you think that's possible?" Bygraves turned his head to look at him.

"The time is correct. It was a year ago today. Gu Ding stepped in before 9.20 in the morning. I even took a look at the time," Kaqipur added.

"But it's already past three in the afternoon." Gablil's eyebrows furrowed.

"Let's wait a little longer." Bygraves's face was full of worry. "It might take some time to teleport back."

Time ticked by, and almost every minute and second was torture for the three of them. Until late at night, the three of them still did not see the stone door open. There was not even the slightest sign that it would open.

Kaqipur saw Bygraves's unpleasant expression as he stared at the stone door. He shook his head and sighed. "Boss, there's no need to wait …"

When Bygraves heard Kaqipur's voice, he slowly closed his eyes. After a long time, he opened them again. He seemed to have aged a lot. "Gu Ding is dead … We've brought a crisis of extinction to the entire human race."

"Boss, Gu Ding's death isn't entirely our fault. We're just following the rules. Although the space-time disorder is dangerous, a year's time isn't long. Those with enough luck can still survive. It was his fate that he would perish inside. Even if we don't let him enter the chaotic space, it's very likely that he'll die if he enters the Outland Battlefield by himself, "Gabliai comforted.

"But his father Gu Cang doesn't think so." Bygraves smiled bitterly and shook his head. "Gu Cang annihilated the entire Dark Underworld Race just because he bullied his son. I can imagine how he would react to the death of his son …"

Caqipur and Gabliai immediately fell silent. At first, they thought that this matter might not necessarily lead to a dead end, but when they thought of the terror of the ancient treasure, their hearts immediately turned to ashes.

"Boss, if we take the initiative to admit our crimes, will he let the others go?" After a long period of silence, Kaqipoer suddenly asked with some uncertainty. "Gu Cang is after all a member of the Human Race. If he kills us, perhaps he won't vent his anger on others."

"How could it be so simple?" Bygraves shook his head. "This plane we're in is just an insignificant grain of sand amongst the millions of planes. Here, the human race is just a tiny branch. In Gu Cang's eyes, we're just a group of uncivilized monkeys living in a small forest, no different from the Dark Underworld Race. If it were you and a group of monkeys killed your own son, would you let them go? "

"What should we do now?" Gabliai asked after a moment of silence.

"We can only resign ourselves to fate and wait for the final outcome. Gu Cang might not receive news of Gu Ding's death so soon. We might still have a buffer period. If one of you breaks through to Heavenly God-Level during this buffer period, leave this plane as soon as possible. "Bygraves patted the two of them on the shoulder.

"If the three of us can break through to Heavenly God-Level, we might be able to fight him." Gabliai's eyes suddenly lit up when he heard this.

"Don't even think about it. The fact that Gu Cang could casually give away the Heavenly God Mysterious Blood of a third-rank Heavenly God means that even if he's a Heavenly God, he's definitely one of the strongest Heavenly Gods. Even if the three of us were to advance to Heavenly God-Level, we won't be able to fight him." However, Bygraves shook his head again. "Only by escaping this plane will we have a chance at survival."

"What's the point of escaping if the entire tribe is wiped out?" Kaqipoer shook his head.

"That's right. Instead of being stray dogs, it's better for the three of us to fight to the death. At least we'll die a worthy death." Gabliai nodded in agreement.

Bygraves glanced at the two of them and was silent for a long time before he nodded. "Alright, then let's fight to the death together!"

…

Late at night, in the office building on the first floor of Purgatory Gate, Warden Victoria looked in the direction of the Confinement Space. "Today is the day that the young man named Gu Ding entered the Confinement Space for a year. There hasn't been any movement from the Confinement Space. I'm afraid that the young man has fallen. No one has ever come out of the Confinement Space in Death Mode. Even though it's only a year, with the young man's strength, the chances of him surviving are not high. What a pity for a peerless demon … "

Belinda, the Keeper of Order, was also looking into the distance from the office building. "The one-year deadline is up. Is Gu Ding still alive? There hasn't been any reaction from the Confinement Space. Could something have happened? "

There were not many people on the sixth floor of Purgatory Gate who still remembered Gu Ding's name. However, many people remembered that a young man had entered the Confinement Space in Death Mode a year ago. Now that the one-year deadline had passed and the young man had not come out alive, everyone's fear of the Confinement Space had grown stronger.

…

In the Sand World, Gu Ding had no idea that he had not been transported back. This caused many people to speculate that he had died. Because of his identity, the three Defense Commanders were already prepared to sacrifice their lives.

"What did you say? I can't go back?! " In the depths of a dense forest, Bartholomew, who looked like a Flame Demon Tree, shook the branches on his body and asked loudly.

"Yes." Only then did Gu Ding tell the whole story.

"The reason you can't go back is because the space-time transportation trajectory is wrong. This rarely happens because very few people have the strength to affect the trajectory of space-time transportation. Unfortunately, you encountered it." After listening to Gu Ding's story, Bartholomew immediately deduced the reason why Gu Ding could not be transported back. It was the same reason Neptune had speculated.

"Not being able to leave this Sand World doesn't affect me much. I just need to spend some time to merge with this Demon Tree Avatar and cultivate to Heavenly God level before leaving. However, the biggest problem now is your problem. Even if you cultivate to heavenly god-level, you can only leave this gravel world. It's almost impossible for you to find the dimension you were originally in. Heavenly Gods may seem powerful, but they only have the preliminary ability to travel between dimensions. They can only travel short distances between dimensions. If you want to pass through the space-time disorder and reach your original dimension, I'm guessing you'll need at least lord-level strength to do it. "

Hearing Bartholomew's words, Gu Ding bit his lip. He did not expect things to be more troublesome than he had imagined. He became more anxious. "There are less than two years left of the three-year promise …"
