Gu Ding lowered his body and hid in the grass, secretly observing the Witch Tribe hunters through the gaps in the grass.

The number of fiber buttons in his possession was down to three. This meant that he had to get rid of the seventeen people who accompanied the three Rank-8 Gene Body within half an hour.

After targeting the fiber button at the three Rank-8 Gene Body, Gu Ding pressed hard on the launch button. Three strands of translucent silk thread silently entangled the three Gene Body’s ankle and swiftly made their way up. By the time they noticed it, the fiber had already wrapped about a third of their body. In less than twenty seconds, a thin white cocoon had enveloped their entire body. The three of them struggled hard but to no avail.

The rest tried to help, but there was no use.

Once the fiber completely encased them, Gu Ding simultaneously activated Ultimate Arts Level 7 and rage ability. He took a Silent Step and appeared behind a Rank-6 Gene Body from the Witch Tribe.

After a two-fold increase from Combat Armor, a three-fold increase from Rage Level 2 and a ten-fold increase from Ultimate Arts Level 7, Gu Ding’s combat effectiveness was comparable to a martial arts practitioner with eighty thousand points Cell Index. To the likes of a Rank-6 Gene Body who had less than three thousand points Cell Index, he was like the Grim Reaper. Gu Ding effortlessly broke his first opponent’s neck, and he collapsed without even making a squeak.

Soon after, Gu Ding appeared right behind the second Gene Body…

In the turmoil, only after Gu Ding had killed the fourth Rank-6 Gene Body from the Witch Tribe, did the Witch Tribe hunters realized they were under attack. The entire process took less than fifteen seconds.

Gu Ding was not worried about being discovered. Back in the days, he had to try his best to contend with these Rank-6 Gene Body, but now they were like sheep waiting to be butchered. Even though there were several Rank-7 Gene Body, their Cell Index was less than ten thousand points. In Gu Ding’s eyes, they were no different from the rest. He, however, was a wolf who had sneaked its way into the sheep pen. No matter how hard they resisted, they could not escape their fate.

He continued taking one Silent Step after another and appeared right in front of the fifth Gene Body. He then fiercely pressed a Terminating Finger on his forehead, causing his head to explode instantly. Gu Ding showed no signs of slowing down, with a deft maneuver, he appeared in front of the sixth Gene Body. Using the Terminating Finger yet again, it shattered the Gene Body’s head.

Witnessing Gu Ding’s ruthless killings, the people from Witch Tribe were terrified. He was like a demon. Each time he made an attack; he took a life with no mercy.

Half of the twelve Rank-6 Gene Body enemies were killed in less than a minute.

“Split up and run!” A Rank-7 Gene Body from Witch Tribe shouted at the remaining Rank-6 Gene Body.

“Can they really escape?” Gu Ding’s face was grim. He took another Silent Step and appeared like a ghost behind one of the fleeing people from Witch Tribe. He mercilessly punched a Steel Fist onto the center of his back and the punch instantly pierced a hole in his body. Gu Ding turned around and without looking back, went after the second Gene Body…

Six of them were effortlessly killed by Gu Ding, none of them stood a chance. He even stacked their bodies on top of one another and looked at the remaining five Rank-7 Gene Body. “Are you guys going to run or fight?”

Five of them looked at each other and charged toward Gu Ding.

This was exactly what Gu Ding wanted. Rank-7 Gene Body martial arts practitioners were a lot faster than Rank-6. If they ran in all directions, Gu Ding reckoned he could only catch up with three of them at most, allowing the last two to escape. He intentionally piled the bodies of the Rank-6 Gene Body together, just to provoke them as well as suggesting that they would have a chance at surviving if they joined forces. Running in all directions would only bring them death.

The five Rank-7 Gene Body powerhouses were extremely skilled in their cooperation. Their attacks were also rather aggressive, each aimed at the five different vital parts on Gu Ding’s body so that he could not avoid all of them.

Gu Ding twisted his body and nimbly avoided the attacks on his vital parts. He then fully activated Righteous Body to withstand the attack from the five powerhouses. Soon after, his Steel Fist hit one of the powerhouses’ chest. His Phantom Kick also slammed into another’s neck with a lightning-like force.

The two powerhouses hit were so terribly injured that they were incapacitated.

The other three did not plan to let go of this opportunity and continued attacking wildly. Gu Ding resisted the attack with his Righteous Body and pressed a Terminating Finger onto one of the powerhouses’ temple, while a Flaming Knee rammed hard onto another’s crotch. Based on what Biggie had said earlier, if they were unable to incapacitate their opponents, they should just attack their most vulnerable parts so they lose their combat effectiveness.

Five of them had closed in on him but four were badly injured and quit the fight. The last powerhouse posed no threat to Gu Ding. He punched hard on the powerhouse’s nose bridge with Steel Fist and a Lightning Elbow with Damage Stacking was aimed at his heart. With the Damage Stacking ability, Gu Ding was able to use the cursing ability on the five powerhouses. The second strike immediately got Damage Stacking. The attack which was comparable to eighteen thousand points Cell Index immediately doubled to thirty-six thousand points. This terrifying power was undeniably a lethal blow to a Rank-7 Gene Body with not more than ten thousand points Cell Index who was already under a curse. When his combat effectiveness was only half of the usual level, the Rank-7 Gene Body Witch Tribe powerhouse who was hit in the heart died on the spot when his heart exploded.

Gu Ding turned his attention to the remaining four. Their body was already hit with the curse caused by Damage Stacking. Now that they were heavily injured, they were no better than the Rank-6 Gene Bodys he killed earlier.

Although four of them were no longer capable of striking back, Gu Ding did not plan on keeping any of them alive. This hunt for him had led to the Witch Tribe dispatching seventy percent of their powerhouses. If they managed to escape, they could call for reinforcements which would lead to more Rank-8 Gene Body powerhouses or even Rank-9 Gene Body coming after him. Gu Ding did not want to see this happen.

He mercilessly hit the four powerhouses’ vital parts, killing them instantly. As he lowered his head to look at the time on his wristwatch, only eleven minutes had passed.

Looking at the three powerhouses still wrapped in fiber, Gu Ding furrowed his eyebrows. “What about these three?”

Rank-8 Gene Bodys were indeed difficult for Gu Ding to deal with. That was because Rank-8 Gene Bodys had four spiral gene chain in their body, with a Cell Index between ten thousand and one hundred thousand points on average. Those people from Witch Tribe who were after him earlier were the best in their respective Gene Body rank. These three Rank-8 Gene Body’s Cell Index should be more than eighty thousand points, there was no way Gu Ding could bypass their defenses. The fiber keeping them under control would probably break at the same time. Gu Ding would be so tired from handling one, let alone three.

“I’ve used the insect robot to scout the place. There’s a place we can get rid of these three nuisances. I’ll show it to you on the map!” Neptune said and projected a map. It clearly displayed the directions from Gu Ding’s current location to the target location.

Looking at the three-dimensional projection, Gu Ding noticed the landform at the target’s location. “There’s a cliff there?”

“That’s right, we just have to throw them off it. Even if the three of them survived, several days will have passed before they manage to climb back up.” Neptune explained. “However, before that, you still have to solve one problem. Someone is hiding in the grass eighty meters from here at your one o’clock.”
