Chapter 1290

Gu Ding stopped in front of the black door.

The door was not big, only about two meters high. Gu Ding had no idea what it was, so he pressed his hand on it. Just as he was about to push it hard, he found that the black door had changed color to the same crimson color as Acheron.

Then, a paragraph of text appeared on the door.

[After you leave, inform the Union Government about the One-Eyed Dragon Demon as soon as possible. I won't be able to suppress him much longer.]

Gu Ding nodded after reading it. "Understood. I'll bring the message!"

After a while, the door surged, and a fist-sized liquid separated and floated in front of Gu Ding.

[This drop of Acheron is my reward. You can explore its specific effects slowly.]

Gu Ding reached out and caught the blood-colored liquid. Then, the liquid slowly drilled into Gu Ding's body and entered his soul space.

Almost as soon as he entered, Gu Ding found that his soul space was automatically expanding.

Before he could react, a big blood-colored hand reached out from the door and pulled him in.

When Gu Ding came back to his senses, he found himself in the space outside Nether Temple. He turned his head to look at where Nether Temple used to be, but Nether Temple had disappeared.

Gu Ding knew that Acheron must have moved Nether Temple away.

The moment he returned to the ground, Gu Ding heard Neptune's voice.

"Gu Ding, you're finally back!" Neptune sounded like he was relieved. "If you didn't show up in a few days, I'd have called Lili and the others to look for you!"

"What's going on with this ruin? Why did you stay for more than twenty days?! Generally speaking, two or three days is enough to explore a ruin! " Neptune did not know what happened after Gu Ding entered the ruin. He thought it was just an ordinary ruin, an underground palace, and it would not take long to go around it.

"If Neptune hadn't left a soul lamp on, we would have gone to your ruin." Lilliath's voice was heard, and she sounded a little angry.

"It's okay. It's just that this ruin is very special. If you see a ruin like this in the future, don't go around randomly." Gu Ding wondered if he should tell the others about Nether Temple and Acheron. However, after thinking about it carefully, he threw the idea out of his mind.

"Captain, what happened?" Biggie asked with concern.

"As for the specifics, we'll talk about it after the one-year trial is over. Right now, everyone should focus on the trial! Also, Neptune, keep an eye on them. No one is allowed to enter any underground ruins! "Gu Ding did not plan to say much.

Hearing Gu Ding's words, no one asked any further questions. They guessed that Gu Ding might have encountered fatal danger in the underground ruins, which was why he gave such instructions.

After the party chat channel quieted down, Neptune's voice came again. "Are you not going to tell me about the underground palace in private?"

"Telling me won't solve the problem. It'll only add to your troubles. We'll talk about it later." Gu Ding shook his head.

"Since you don't want to say it, then forget it." Neptune did not pursue the matter. "However, in the twenty days that you were gone, something happened on this battlefield …"

"What happened?" Gu Ding asked quickly.

"The native creatures on the battlefield have been behaving abnormally violently during this period of time, and they've become much more aggressive. Some of the tribes have even started to leave their strongholds and expand to other areas … There are also a small number of them who have died inexplicably. "

Neptune's words reminded Gu Ding of the words that Nether had left for him earlier.

"Nether won't be able to suppress the One-Eyed Dragon Demon soon. The changes in these creatures on the battlefield may have been caused by the One-Eyed Dragon Demon!" Gu Ding guessed that the changes that Neptune mentioned were caused by the One-Eyed Dragon Demon.

"This has also caused the elimination rate to reach as high as fifty percent in a month. This is the first time that more than half of the participants have been eliminated in the first month of the one-year trial period, "Neptune continued.

"What about the other participants? How many of them have broken through to the level of a feudal lord? "Gu Ding asked.

"There were a total of one hundred and ten thousand people who participated in the trial this time. Now, there are more than fifty thousand left. Among the fifty thousand people, more than forty thousand were perfected lord-level before they came in. Basically, these people have advanced to the level of feudal lords. Before they came in, they were already well-prepared. "

"Lili, Biggie, and the others have also started preparing to break through to the next rank. They have been fighting every day during this period and have not been idle. Their cultivation has long been consolidated. "

"Mm, I'm ready to break through too!" Gu Ding nodded. "Help me see if there are any creatures on my list in this world."

"This Virtual World is very unique. As long as we need a certain creature, and the creature exists in reality, it can be constructed. Originally, there was not a single creature on your list in this world. However, after I deliberately searched, all kinds of creatures on the list appeared. "

"In order to verify this matter, I even found a few creatures unique to our plane to conduct experiments. It has been proven that as long as I think of the name or appearance of the species, it will appear, regardless of which dimension the creature came from or whether it exists in this era. As long as it has existed, it will appear. "

"If that's the case, will it be effective to use it as a sacrifice?" Gu Ding was doubtful.

"I don't know either. According to the rules, what is done here is equivalent to what is done in the real world. In theory, it should be the same for a sacrifice. Once it is completed here, it is equivalent to completing a sacrifice in the real world. However, I don't know if we can construct the sacrifice ourselves, "Neptune said with a flick of her hands. She did not give an accurate answer. "However, you can be a pioneer and give it a try! According to the rules, as long as the sacrifice is successful in this world, it should be considered a success. "

"Alright. Have you collected all the information on the demons and exotic beasts on the list?" Gu Ding asked.

"I've collected them long ago. I'll send them to you right away. You can choose for yourself." Neptune said as she sent all the information over.

After receiving the information, Gu Ding looked through the sacrifices one by one. He looked very carefully and spent more than an hour reading through the information on more than twenty sacrifices.

"Illusory Demon, Refinement Domain Demon, good at illusion, able to bewitch people's hearts …"

"Soul Light Beast, born with inexhaustible soul power, able to emit light-like soul attacks to kill the enemy …"

"Soul Gu Immortal, Refinement Domain Demon, good at soul sorcery, able to imperceptibly infiltrate the enemy's soul, then erase the enemy's consciousness, using gu worms to control the enemy …"

…

Many of the sacrifices were unique and very powerful, but Gu Ding felt that many of them were not to his liking. After careful consideration in his mind, Gu Ding finally set his sights on an exotic beast called Hundred Transformation Divine Ape.

"Hundred Transformation Divine Ape, with Heaven's Eye, able to see through the essence of the opponent's soul. Moreover, it can replicate the opponent's soul and body, perfectly transforming itself into the opponent's appearance, possessing all of the opponent's memories and inheritance … "
