Chapter 1159

"You only need to defeat me in my complete form!"

The castellan's words stunned Gu Ding. "Complete form?"

"That's right. I'm a Holy King Level powerhouse. For some reason, my true combat effectiveness is limited in this stage. However, I have a way to fight you in my complete form. As long as you defeat me in my complete form, you will pass this stage directly. "

"There's such a rule?" Gu Ding did not expect it at all.

"This is a hidden rule that only the castellan knows," the castellan said as she looked at Gu Ding, waiting for his reply.

"Alright then, I accept!" Gu Ding nodded and agreed to the other party's proposal.

"You're quite straightforward!" The castellan was slightly surprised.

"Accepting your proposal will ensure the safety of my partners to the greatest extent. Secondly, defeating you and killing you are not contradictory. If I don't get the hint to clear the stage after defeating you, I have a second option. "Gu Ding explained the reason for his decision.

"No matter what the reason is, I want to thank you for accepting my proposal. It means a lot to me, although I can't tell you the specific reason." The castellan was obviously in a good mood, which made Gu Ding feel a little strange.

"Unlock it for me!" The castellan looked at the group of knights behind her.

The ten knights bowed and saluted, then formed a circle and surrounded the castellan.

A moment later, the ten knights glowed with a golden light, completely covering the castellan.

Gu Ding also noticed that the ten knights were quickly becoming transparent as their bodies glowed with golden light. Seeing this, Gu Ding frowned slightly.

"It seems to be a method similar to a sacrifice … but this aura is not the evil feeling of a sacrifice …"

About a minute or so, the bodies of the ten knights completely dissipated, and the castellan had turned into a golden cocoon of light about three meters high.

Feeling the aura of the cocoon of light gradually getting stronger, Gu Ding could feel that the castellan wrapped in the cocoon of light was undergoing a strange transformation.

After about five or six minutes, there was finally a slight sound from within the cocoon of light. Gu Ding also stared at the cocoon of light without blinking.

A moment later, with a cracking sound, a forty to fifty centimeters long crack appeared on the cocoon of light. Once the crack formed, it quickly extended to both sides.

Then, a second, a third … More and more cracks began to form, crisscrossing the light cocoon, cutting it into hundreds of small pieces.

Suddenly, a golden light shot out from the crisscrossing cracks, and the cocoon of light rapidly disintegrated.

Under the glaring golden light, even Gu Ding could not help but shield his eyes with his hands.

When the golden light dimmed slightly, Gu Ding looked toward the light cocoon. It was a woman in golden armor. Her long, blood-red hair was simply tied with a black hair tie.

In the golden-armored woman's hand was a blood-red weapon that looked like a sickle. According to Gu Ding's visual estimation, the weapon's handle alone was more than two meters long, and the crescent-shaped blood-colored scythe's diameter was probably about one and a half meters.

The golden-armored woman waved her hand, and one end of the scythe swung towards the ground behind her, creating a trench that was hundreds of meters long. Then, she looked at Gu Ding with a smile.

"Is this your complete form? It does look … pretty good. " Gu Ding originally wanted to say that it was pretty good, but after thinking about it, he realized that it would only boost her morale, so he quickly changed his words.

"Just pretty good?" The golden-armored woman laughed.

"It's pretty good. You look better in armor than in a dress." Gu Ding's words were not a compliment. He never complimented others, much less women. What he said was the truth.

"Oh, you've become so sweet …"

"I'm just telling the truth." Gu Ding scratched the back of his head awkwardly. He really did not know how to make small talk with people, especially women.

"Remember my name — Naseli Bloodmoon!" As soon as she finished speaking, the golden-armored woman pounced on Gu Ding.

She dragged the giant blood-red scythe with one hand, and the tip of the giant scythe drew a long trench in the void, all the way toward Gu Ding.

When Gu Ding heard the golden-armored woman's name, he was obviously stunned. By the time he reacted, Naseli had already swung the giant blood-red scythe at Gu Ding.

Gu Ding hurriedly swung his arm to block it.

The blade of the giant scythe drew a circle on his arm, pulling out a bloody gash on his arm.

Gu Ding immediately retreated. When he looked at his arm, he saw a deep scar on his left arm. The scar seemed to be affected by Naseli's weapon, and it healed very slowly.

"It's not a good habit to be distracted during a battle." Naseli stretched out a finger and drew it across the blade of the scythe, wiping away Gu Ding's bloodstain.

"Your name is Naseli Bloodmoon?" Gu Ding asked, ignoring the other party's sarcasm.

"Why, is there a problem?" Naseli asked, somewhat puzzled.

"I also know a Naseli Bloodmoon."

Gu Ding's words stunned Naseli for a moment, but her face quickly showed an interested expression. "Tell me about the Naseli Bloodmoon you know!"

"Naseli Bloodmoon was a female Holy King during the Middle Ages. When she was young, she also entered the Path of Regal Ruler, and it was said that she reached the end of the Path of Regal Ruler." Gu Ding stole a glance at Naseli as he spoke, wanting to see her reaction. However, it seemed like she was really interested in the super genius from the Middle Ages that he was talking about.

"What happened after that?" Naseli urged.

"After that, she left the Path of Regal Ruler and soared to the sky. She left the genius geniuses of her generation far behind. Until she became a seven-star Lord, almost no one could defeat her. At that time, some people even said that her strength was no weaker than the King at that time. One of the Kings of that generation wanted to abdicate in her place. Unfortunately, an accident happened when she was trying to become a King, and she died. "

After listening to Gu Ding's story, Naseli fell silent.

Gu Ding hesitated for a moment, but he could not help but ask, "Why are you also called that? And why did you appear in the Path of Regal Ruler? This can't be a coincidence, right? "

Naseli hesitated for a moment before saying, "If you can reach the end of the Path of Regal Ruler, you'll know the answer yourself. If you can't reach the end of the Path of Regal Ruler, you don't have the right to know. So, I won't answer your question.

"Also, if you want to reach the end of the Path of Regal Ruler, you must defeat me. I advise you to focus on this battle and not have any other distracting thoughts. " After Naseli finished speaking, she pounced on Gu Ding again. Her speed was a little faster than the first time …
