Chapter 1158 Inspector
Looking from a distance, the strange beast should have just died not long ago, but was tied to a branch of a giant tree by a few vines, and hung there bloody. [w. Sui Mеng. lā
"Is it storing food? Is it made by humans or other strange beasts?" Seeing such a weird phenomenon, Gu Ding stopped for the first time and watched from afar.
But after some observation, he soon discovered something abnormal, the corpse seemed to be changing. The corpse, which was still bleeding, seemed to be sucked dry by something within a few breaths, turning into a mummy.
Afterwards, the vine fell off, and the mummy fell to the ground, and it was smashed into powder, and then the powder was also absorbed by the roots of the giant tree, completely dissipating.
Seeing this, Gu Ding understood, "The rattan and tree are weird!"
Knowing this, Gu Ding shot a sword finger at the big tree from a distance. This finger contained metallic power, in order to cut the big tree. As for the abilities of the two clones, Gu Ding can use more than 80% of them. He can't use the last few supernatural powers that require the ultimate physique. Other abilities can be used at will.
This point, although Gu Ding did not use any supernatural powers, but with his current true king's combat power, any attack can be compared to the power of the main god's supernatural powers, and that big tree was cut in half in an instant.
Afterwards, Gu Ding condensed his second finger and was about to point to the python-like rattan when his feet suddenly trembled.
Gu Ding was surprised to find that the big tree under his feet also started to move. Not only that, but all the trees within sight began to vibrate as if they had woken up.
Several big trees nearby stretched out their branches one by one, and lashed towards Gu Ding.
"The trees in this forest are all alive?!" Gu Ding frowned, and stepped towards the trunk of the big tree under his feet, his body quickly popped out, and at the same time, the big tree was also under his foot Instant burst.
Those whipped branches were shattered by Gu Ding before they got close. Even the trees with sticking out branches seemed to be infected by the broken branches, and they were all shattered.
And Gu Ding also felt that after the fall of these tree spirits, waves of pure energy poured into his body.
"This is... life essence..." Gu Ding was a little surprised, but then he felt something more, "Not only life essence, but also martial arts comprehension?!"
Gu Ding froze for a moment, but soon understood the reason for the emergence of these energies.
These tree spirits feed on flesh and blood, causing a large amount of life energy to gather in their bodies. Moreover, some of the martial arts perceptions of those fallen monsters of various races were also absorbed by these trees, and for some reason merged into their life energy. After the tree spirit died, these energies would naturally dissipate. In order to avoid dissipating, they would instinctively look for new carriers.
"This place is of great help to the practice of the Holy Lord level powerhouse." Guding immediately thought of Bigger and the others, especially Bigger, Scarlet, Liliat, Huck, and Becca Several people have almost reached the limit in their respective fields. If there is enough martial arts understanding to help, it will greatly increase the chance of breaking through to the Holy King.
Gu Ding was only distracted for a moment, and the surrounding vines and branches slapped him again. After a while, the vines and branches shattered again. Shaking his head, Guding continued to gallop towards the previously planned route. Along the way, countless big trees and vines obstructed in various ways, but they did not stop Guding's footsteps at all. Wherever he passed, there was a barrenness, and all the trees and vines turned into debris.
"Although this kind of attack strength has no effect on me, it is still quite threatening to the strong of the Holy Master level. Some trees have an attack power that is only slightly inferior to Bigger and Scarlet, and stronger than the average Holy Master. The super-level powerhouses are all powerful. Moreover, the defense is also much stronger than the general Holy Master class. The Holy Master class has no way to instantly kill these trees and vines like me. Once surrounded, they will definitely die from exhaustion."
"But fortunately, I woke up only some trees and vines, and it seems to be quiet thousands of meters away. If the entire forest is alive, I am afraid that few people will be able to pass through this second-level area..."
Just when Gu Ding was thinking about these things silently, a strange feeling came suddenly, Gu Ding immediately withdrew his mind, and finally stopped moving forward.
"Since you're here, you don't need to hide your head and show your tail." Gu Ding let out a low shout, and he sensed that someone nearby was peeping at him.
"Hey, I was discovered..." A person jumped out of the bushes not far away and appeared not far in front of Gu Ding.
Afterwards, one person appeared in each of the other directions beside Gu Ding. A total of five people surrounded Guding in the center.
"Who are you? I don't remember when there were five more of you among the contestants!" Gu Ding frowned slightly.
A total of thirty-seven people entered this level of assessment, but the five people in front of them were not any of them.
"Of course we are not contestants, we are the supervisors of this level!" The leader was a young man who looked about the same age as Gu Ding, with a thin figure and yellow hair.
"Inspector?" Gu Ding remembered that such a thing was not mentioned in the rules, "What does the inspector do?"
"Our duty is to protect this forest and prevent the contestants from clearing the level!" The young man with yellow hair didn't expect Gu Ding to ask such a question. He was slightly taken aback, but he still gave the answer.
"Guard the forest? But your companions..." Gu Ding winked at the yellow-haired young man, and pointed to a blocker in front of him on the left.
The young man with yellow hair couldn't help but also looked in that direction, and saw behind one of his subordinates, a cane as thick as an arm was like a giant python circling around, seeming to have locked him as his target.
The young man with yellow hair was about to say something, telling the young man not to act rashly.
But seeing that everyone was looking at him, the young man seemed to have noticed something unusual, and couldn't help turning his head to look behind him.
As soon as he moved, the cane immediately launched an attack, wrapping around his waist directly.
"Save people!"
The yellow-haired young man gave an order, and the rest of them also gave up on Gu Ding, rushed towards the young man who was entangled in the rattan, and began to attack the rattan frantically.
Gu Ding looked at this chaotic scene helplessly. The guys who blocked him were really not very strong. Except for the yellow-haired young man who was the Holy Master, the rest of them were only saints. When he heard that the other party's identities were inspectors, he thought that these people would not be attacked by these trees and vines. It turns out that these guys are actually doing pretty badly.
"That... I think you are quite busy, can I go?" Gu Ding really couldn't bear to attack these people. (To be continued.)
