Luo Yu Beast Falls!

The Luo Yu Beast was a formidable opponent that Gu Ding had never encountered before in his life. Its Combat Strength was that of a five-star Peak-rank God. Just a month or two ago, it would have been a powerful force that could have wiped out Gu Ding's entire team with a single hand.

But now, Gu Ding possesses the Myriad Manifestations Emperor Body, along with the added power of the Berserk Divine Ability, and the True God Skill of Asura World Extinction. His Combat Strength is no weaker than that of the Luo Yu Beast.

With its ten fingers spread wide, ten black spiraling Finger Force burst forth from the air. These Finger Force grew rapidly in the wind, expanding from the thickness of a thumb to a massive black whirlwind nearly ten meters in diameter, sweeping towards the Luo Yu Beast.

Seemingly sensing the ferocity of Gu Ding's attack, the Luo Yu Beast dared not confront it head-on. Instead, it flapped its wings and instantly shifted its massive body, dodging the ten raging black whirlwinds.

"Such a large size, yet it has such dodging speed." Gu Ding thought that such a large target would at least take one or two hits no matter how it dodged, but he did not expect that not a single attack would hit.

The Luo Yu Beast immediately launched a counterattack, its wings flapping in a peculiar trajectory. Golden rays of light rained down on Gu Ding's location like a storm, but Gu Ding clearly saw that these golden rays were not raindrops, but clusters of golden flames. "Quickly, get out of the way! This is the Myriad Melting Flame!" the Sea Emperor shouted anxiously. "Even a powerhouse of equal strength would have their body instantly disintegrate upon contact!"

Gu Ding frowned slightly, his figure instantly exploding backward. His escape was a display of extreme speed, leaving afterimages on the ground, all of which were instantly engulfed by the Fire Rain. Under the dense onslaught, Gu Ding could only barely dodge, trying to avoid being hit. According to the Sea Emperor, being hit would mean elimination, and he didn't want to be eliminated yet.

"It hasn't even been half a day yet. If we're eliminated like this, it'll be too embarrassing. And Liliath and the others will definitely use it as a laughing stock. They'll keep bringing it up for the next two or three months." Gu Ding thought about the consequences of being eliminated early and immediately banished the ominous thought from his mind.

But in the sky, the Luo Yu Beast seemed to have noticed Gu Ding's fear of this move, and it used it repeatedly without getting tired of it.

Suddenly, Gu Ding had an idea. He darted out of the range of the Luo Yu Beast's attack and headed towards the Peak-rank God Region, hoping to disrupt the Falling Feather Beast's attack.

Sure enough, the Fallen Feather Beast flapped its wings and followed. Gu Ding seized the opportunity to leap high into the air, clenching his fist. He attacked the Fallen Luo Yu Beast, but before he could get close, its wings flapped again, unleashing a torrential downpour of golden flames upon Gu Ding. This time, Gu Ding had no time to dodge and was directly engulfed by the flames. He instantly felt as if his body had entered a furnace, and his body began to rapidly disintegrate.

"Oh no!"

This is not a good sign for Gu Ding.

"Try 'Burning Heaven'!" the Sea Emperor suddenly shouted.

Gu Ding hadn't used the Burning Heaven technique for a long time because it couldn't be used in conjunction with amplification abilities like Berserk. Using it wouldn't have the same effect as the Combat Strength boost from physical enhancement.

Therefore, Gu Ding hesitated slightly regarding the Sea Emperor's suggestion. Without any enhancement, his divine source strength was only at the peak of Mid-rank God, not yet at the level of High-rank God. Using the Heaven-Burning Technique might very well hasten his death.

However, his trust in the Sea Emperor still allowed him to activate the Heavenly Blaze. The Destruction Flame, Devouring Flame, Starfire, Nirvana Flame, and Purple Lightning Divine Fire —five powerful divine fire energies—instantly surged Gu Ding's Soul Space, igniting his entire body and transforming him into a five-colored flame. But what puzzled Gu Ding was that not only did the intense burning sensation completely disappear, but his strength didn't decrease. "Why is this happening? My divine source strength is clearly only..."

"Under normal circumstances, Burning Heaven cannot be used in conjunction with amplification abilities. However, after using Asura World Extinction, all the data of your body have reached the standard of a five-star Peak-rank God, making you a complete whole. It can be said that you are no different from a true five-star Peak-rank God except for lacking a godhood. The strength of the divine source within your body is also that of a five-star Peak-rank God, so you can naturally use the Burning Heaven technique normally." The Sea Emperor explained as if it were a matter of course.

Gu Ding, who had transformed into flames, had developed a great resistance to Luo Yu's flame attacks, because any flame within his body was no weaker than the divine fire of the Myriad Melting Flame, and was even stronger than the Myriad Melting Flame.

Seeing the change in Gu Ding's form, Luo Yu also sensed an even more terrifying aura emanating from Gu Ding than before. It wasn't that Gu Ding's aura had become stronger, but rather that after transforming into flames, he had developed a certain ability to restrain Luo Yu, which made Luo Yu instinctively feel uneasy.

"Hehe, I've suppressed your fire attribute, let's see what you're still so arrogant about!" Gu Ding leaped high again, throwing a heavy punch at the falling feather. Five-colored flames twisted and twirled like five giant pythons, condensing into one in the void and blasting towards the falling feather.

The fallen feather opened its beak and let out a mournful cry, and a golden rune condensed in the void. After a moment, the rune faded, and a faint fluctuation emanated from its original location, revealing a golden dot, about the size of a grain of dust. If Gu Ding hadn't possessed extraordinary eyesight, he wouldn't have been able to spot it at all. That grain of dust began to rapidly expand in size, like a balloon being filled with a large amount of air.

"Oh no! It's about to use its Fated Divine Power!" the Sea Emperor shouted urgently. "Gu Ding, we must kill that Fallen Feather and shatter the expanding dust before that speck of dust completely expands. This Fated Divine Power is called 'Myriad Dust,' meaning that after this move, all things will turn into particles of dust and return to their origin. If that dust expands to a sufficient size, it will produce a terrifying self-destruct effect, enough to kill a six-star Peak-rank God."

The Sea Emperor's reminder gave Gu Ding a headache, because his current Combat Strength, and killing that behemoth wouldn't be something that could be done in a few moves. Just then, Gu Ding remembered when he used the Burning Heaven technique before. Many other memories flooded into his mind, and it seemed that there was a powerful move among them. Gu Ding immediately began to search through that memory in his mind.

"Heaven Burning Seal!" The Burning Heaven Seal of the Five Divine Flames had actually unlocked a powerful move. Gu Ding finished reading the relevant memories in no time. The time flow in the consciousness world was hundreds of millions of times faster than in the Real World, and only a moment passed in the outside world.

Gu Ding's long, slender fingers began to rapidly form obscure hand seals. His movements appeared slow and even somewhat clumsy, but after a few seconds, the seals were successfully completed. Gu Ding felt his divine energy surging wildly into the seals before him, only stopping when more than half of his divine energy had been absorbed.

All around was silent; even Gu Ding himself had no idea what was going to happen. He chose to wait patiently.

One second, two seconds, three seconds

The dust particle summoned by Luo Yu using her Fated Divine Power grew larger and larger, causing Gu Ding to frown deeply. The lack of an attack for some time made him wonder if he had made a mistake when forming the hand seals. Just as this thought crossed his mind, a terrifying aura descended from the sky, and Gu Ding quickly looked up. It was a gigantic hand entirely composed of flames.

After appearing, the palm fell with the force of lightning, slamming down hard on the fallen feather and the dust mote that had grown to several meters in diameter.

Gu Ding clearly saw that the falling feather was instantly annihilated the moment it was struck by the palm, and the explosion caused by the dust particle was also directly suppressed by the palm, causing no damage to the surrounding area. On the contrary, the ground within a radius of thousands of kilometers collapsed instantly under this palm strike, and the tremors extended for tens of thousands of kilometers. This shocked several powerful individuals who were hunting in the High-rank God region. It should be noted that the spatial stability of this world is incomparable to that of the planets in the Universe Sea.

Seeing the power of this move, Gu Ding himself was somewhat surprised. That palm strike could probably kill even a six-star Peak-rank God. However, he was not satisfied with his battle, because he had been in danger several times and almost died at the hands of that Falling Feather. He only won this battle because he had the advantage of Burning Heaven, which was not the result he wanted.

Of course, the others in this virtual world didn't see it that way. They only saw that Gu Ding's points jumped by 5,000 points in one go. Everyone knew the concept of a 5,000-point jump; it meant that Gu Ding had hunted down a five-star Peak-rank God.

Although Gu Ding's ranking has fallen to outside the top fifteen, people's attention to him has not decreased but increased. This time, his ranking has also sparked a lot of discussion.

"Is this guy even human?!"

"A five-star Peak-rank God is already the strongest monster in this virtual world, right? If there are six-star or seven-star deities above them, I wonder if Gu Ding could defeat them."

Because when they first entered this world, the female voice only mentioned a five-star Peak-rank God with 5,000 points, many people assumed that the strongest being in this virtual world was a five-star Peak-rank God.

However, Gu Ding had no immediate plans to challenge a six-star Peak-rank God creature. He didn't even intend to step onto the next level, preferring to continue training on the First Level. He didn't care at all about his plummeting ranking; he wasn't even interested in checking the Ranking List.

Currently, Liliath holds the top spot on the Ranking List with 230,000 points, while Karrot remains in second place with over 190,000 points. Scarlet, Dokter, and Elsa rank third, fourth, and fifth respectively, all with over 100,000 points.

Futu's ranking also climbed to the top twenty, placing nineteenth, a few places behind Gu Ding. However, he had already entered the three-star Peak-rank God Region and had successfully killed several three-star Peak-rank God. But this brilliant achievement was overshadowed by Gu Ding's performance.

In the Flame Zone, the Peak-rank God Region, Gu Ding, after some adjustments, once again stepped onto the first step. This time, he did not activate the Blazing Heaven Flame Body Effect.
