The Terrifying Red-Eyed Gu Ding

The "Death Advent" ability is Special Divine Power only by Deadpool, and it is also their strongest attack. Once activated, this ability unleashes a beam of death that shines without blind spots over a certain area around Deadpool. Any living being touched by this beam will develop ice-like crystals on their skin; these crystals are actually formed from the life force that has dissipated from the living being's body. When the life force has completely dissipated, the living being dies, and under the attack of Death Advent, this process usually takes no more than ten seconds.

But Gu Ding's current state was very strange. His life force had been completely drained, and his consciousness had become completely undetectable. His physical condition was also indicative of death; his heartbeat had stopped, his brain activity had ceased, and his pupils were completely dilated... By all accounts, his body was essentially a corpse.

Although all the detection data indicated that Gu Ding was dead, Sea Emperor knew clearly that Gu Ding was not dead. Because if Gu Ding were to die, his connection with Gu Ding would automatically dissolve, but he clearly felt that his connection with Gu Ding had not weakened in the slightest.

The Deadpool also knew that Gu Ding was not dead. As a higher life form in the Death Plane, it knew very well that Gu Ding was still alive, but it didn't know why Gu Ding was still alive.

Even with its current strength as an Elementary Death Servant, the power of Death Advent was enough to annihilate First Sequence Heavenly God. But this human before it—clearly not even a true god—was still alive after being struck by such an attack, which puzzled Deadpool greatly.

Deep within Gu Ding's Soul Space lie three large doors.

The one on the left is a magnificent golden door. The one on the right is a black door carrying an eerie aura. And in the middle is a small wooden door.

Behind the small wooden door, in a patch of grass, lay a black-haired boy. The boy looked exactly like Gu Ding, but his condition was extremely dire. His entire body was semi-transparent, and he seemed on the verge of disintegrating at any moment.

A small black dog, about half-grown, circled the boy a few times anxiously before running towards the wooden door.

The little black dog pushed open the wooden door and walked to the large black door, which appeared to be made of metal. The dog pawed at it a few times, but seeing no effect, it squatted down at the doorway and let out a strange howl. The sound... sounded like a wolf's howl, yet it was mixed with many other peculiar animal roars, as if it had hundreds of vocal cords operating simultaneously. The resonance of these roars was terrifying. If an ordinary person heard it, they would probably only feel terrified.

After a few howls, the patterns on the black metal door frame began to change strangely, as if the chain-like patterns were cracking. As the patterns finally stopped changing, the door was silently pushed open.

A figure in black emerged from behind the black gate; the man was completely shrouded in a long black robe. The little black dog seemed very excited to see him, wagging its tail incessantly.

"Devouring Heaven. I told you to keep an eye on him, not to spend all your time playing with him." The voice of the black-clad figure sounded very young. He slowly removed the brim of his hat, revealing his face. That young face was almost identical to Gu Ding's, except that his eyes were completely bloodshot.

"Never mind, I can't blame you. My strength is too weak. You're just starting to grow too, and you can't even use human language yet." The boy frowned, seemingly immediately sensing the crisis this body was facing. "A Deadpool? Looks like I've come to an interesting place. It's a pity it's just an Elementary Death Servant; it'll be easily ruined. If it were Advanced Death Servant, it would be nice to keep it as a pet..."

"Woof!" the little black dog barked, but this time its bark was completely different from before; it sounded exactly like a dog's bark.

"You said this body's load-bearing capacity is insufficient... That's true, this body is indeed weak, unable to withstand even the power of a celestial being. In that case, I'll have to use other methods." The Black Robe Young Man's lips curled slightly, though it was the same face, his expression was completely different from Gu Ding's.

A moment later, the blue ice layer on Gu Ding's body began to shatter, and his entire body slowly began to be exposed.

This scene made Deadpool even more confused.

Gu Ding, who should have been dead, suddenly opened his eyes, which were completely crimson. At the same time he opened his eyes, the entire secret realm was plunged into complete darkness, as if all the lights in the world had been extinguished.

In that endless darkness, Gu Ding's eyes remained crimson, and the terrifying aura emanating from him made the hundreds-of-meters-tall Deadpool tremble.

Especially under the gaze of those scarlet eyes, Deadpool dared not make any rash moves that could lead to death. It could clearly sense that whatever was inside Gu Ding's body was something it could not afford to provoke.

"You made a fatal mistake, which was that you shouldn't have provoked my true self." Red-Eyed Gu Ding suddenly spoke. "If my true self dies, we will be in big trouble. So, for safety's sake, I should eliminate a threat like you."

As soon as Red-Eyed Gu Ding finished speaking, a large dark hand appeared from nowhere, enveloping the Deadpool like a shadow. Suddenly, the dark hand exerted force, and the giant Deadpool burst like a balloon.

As Deadpool exploded, the entire secret realm trembled violently...

Sea Emperor witnessed everything that happened, but he dared not utter a word, because he knew that it was not Gu Ding who had made the move this time.

But things didn't go so smoothly, because the Sea Emperor overheard the conversation between the Red-Eyed Gu Ding: "Sea Emperor, right? Don't tell Gu Ding about what just happened."

"Who exactly are you? Why are you hiding inside Gu Ding's body?" The Sea Emperor quickly seized the opportunity to ask his questions.

"You've got it wrong. It's not that I'm hiding inside Gu Ding. I've been inside Gu Ding he was born," Red-Eyed Gu Ding corrected. "That's all I can tell you. If you keep asking these kinds of questions, I'll have to destroy you."

Upon hearing this threat, Sea Emperor fell silent, convinced that the other party might actually succeed. He had just witnessed the other party effortlessly crush an Elementary Death Servant.

"I also hope that you won't tell Gu Ding about everything you saw today. Knowing that I exist won't do him any good at this stage..."
