318: Free training ground

Because the Guardian had said before that Gu Qinghan wouldn't truly die here, he wasn't worried about encountering any unmanageable dangers.

Gu Qinghan simply summoned the remaining Temporary Workers and pushed deeper into the Land of Blood Sorrow.

Although so far, Gu Qinghan had only advanced less than a hundred meters.

"I still have to go to the Burial Ground first, otherwise, I can't even use my self-created skills."

When Gu Qinghan tried to cast a skill, he sadly realized that he currently had no active skills available.

Fortunately, both of his current bone equipment pieces came with active skills, which somewhat compensated for his awkward situation at the moment.

The ground in front of him suddenly boiled, like a pot of red pigment being heated.

Immediately after, countless Filth Blood Warlocks appeared, rising like a low red wall.

Countless blood beads emerged from the ground, flying towards Gu Qinghan the moment they appeared.

Gu Qinghan wanted to summon the Filth Blood Warlocks he had just subdued, but then he heard the Guardian's voice again:

"If you summon Filth Blood Warlocks in the Land of Blood Sorrow, they will directly break free from your control. Have you thought this through?"

Gu Qinghan gritted his teeth, never having felt so frustrated.

But those red blood beads came like raindrops, and the Temporary Workers at the very front were already blown to pieces.

Gu Qinghan raised his left hand, and a white light suddenly illuminated.

Immediately after, a thick bone arm appeared out of thin air, holding a giant bone shield, directly blocking the path of those blood beads.

Violent explosions rang out, but they couldn't break through this solid defense at all.

"Freeze them for me!"

After this round of attacks, Gu Qinghan immediately had his Skeletons shoot that terrifying cold current at the opposite side.

The cold current swept over the Filth Blood Warlocks, causing a layer of frost to appear on their surfaces.

But very quickly, this layer of frost turned into a thick layer of ice!

Death Swordsmen suddenly appeared, and each swing of their black swords could shatter a Filth Blood Warlock turned into an ice sculpture.

However, Gu Qinghan immediately realized something was wrong.

Because in his vision, the Death Swordsman's speed was gradually slowing down!

One Death Swordsman couldn't even swing the greatsword in its hand, and its movements were full of sluggishness.

Those Filth Blood Warlocks immediately hurled their skills at this Death Swordsman; after a series of explosions, the Death Swordsman actually dissipated into a cloud of black smoke.

He immediately recalled the Death Swordsmen and indeed found that they were already covered in a thick layer of bloody filth.

Gu Qinghan thought carefully; these things should be what was left behind when those blood beads exploded just now.

"So troublesome..."

When facing Filth Blood Warlocks, who were also Netherworld Creatures, the Death Swordsmen clearly lost their invincible momentum.

The main reason was that their Death Qi was not very effective against their own kind.

"Guardian, will Death Swordsmen truly die here?"

Gu Qinghan asked in his mind, and quickly received a response.

"No, the Death Swordsman that just died has returned to the Necropolis and transformed back into a statue."

Gu Qinghan's heart sank; didn't this mean that the other party had broken free from his control?

The Guardian sensed Gu Qinghan's thoughts and said with a smile:

"These are all subordinates of the God of Death; don't keep thinking about them.

Haven't you noticed that these Netherworld Creatures outside are also very strong?

Perhaps you spoke ill of the God of Death, and after He heard it, He revoked control over the Death Swordsmen."

"That's too petty..." Gu Qinghan mumbled.

However, he immediately put away the remaining four Death Swordsmen.

Against troublesome guys like Filth Blood Warlocks, melee units were at a significant disadvantage.

He changed his strategy, turning one Skeleton into a Shadow Spear profession and rushing towards the depths of the Land of Blood Sorrow.

Large numbers of Filth Blood Warlocks sensed the invasion and emerged from underground, but instantly lost their target.

And facing the sudden appearance of a large number of Filth Blood Warlocks, Gu Qinghan immediately used another piece of bone equipment.

A bone hand appeared out of thin air and slammed heavily onto the ground, smashing no less than ten Filth Blood Warlocks into blood pulp.

Immediately after, the bone hand quickly closed on the ground, grabbing nearly a hundred Filth Blood Warlocks.

Then, it squeezed hard!

Blood overflowed from the bone hand's fingers, but very quickly, a large number of blood beads surrounded the bone hand.

Continuous rumbling explosions occurred, blasting this large hand into a sky full of white light.

Taking advantage of the area near the ground having fewer blood beads, Gu Qinghan directly ordered his Skeletons to launch another round of attacks.

In this wave, dozens more Filth Blood Warlocks were killed.

Gu Qinghan's front line advanced again, and he simultaneously recalled the Shadow Spear Skeleton that had rushed out.

As a Necromancer, his skills had all disappeared, so now, each professional Skeleton that died meant one less.

As the Shadow Spear Skeleton passed a certain spot, an arm suddenly stretched out from the ground and grabbed directly at the Shadow Spear Skeleton.

But the Shadow Spear Skeleton's speed was too fast; it wasn't directly caught but was tripped to the ground.

An Undead, with grayish-white skin and no hair on its body, crawled out from underground and quickly rushed towards the fallen Skeleton.

"Undead Warrior, also one of the beings at the very edge of the Land of Blood Sorrow."

This time, Gu Qinghan didn't need the Guardian to remind him; he recognized this thing himself.

Gu Qinghan directly concentrated all firepower on that side, but quickly discovered that more Undead Warriors were emerging from underground.

These Undead Warriors were clearly much stronger than Torres's; facing the rapidly shooting cold current, they even charged forward for a distance.

Before Gu Qinghan could kill these frozen guys, he found that the Filth Blood Warlocks' attacks on the other side had already reached him.

Helplessly, Gu Qinghan summoned the Bear King.

Its huge body was like a mountain, blocking all these explosions.

But even the Bear King, with its strong defense, was blasted back a few steps at this moment.

Gu Qinghan knew he couldn't let the Bear King keep taking the hits, so he immediately had Deaths Touch attach to himself.

Eight slender tentacles quickly shot out, coiling around Filth Blood Warlocks one by one, then constricting them into lumps of blood pulp.

A giant tentacle, several meters in diameter, suddenly appeared on the ground and slammed towards the frozen Undead Warriors.

For a moment, a large area in front of Gu Qinghan was instantly cleared.

These Netherworld Creatures were very strong, and coupled with their complete disregard for their own lives when attacking, they put immense pressure on Gu Qinghan.

Gu Qinghan realized that this high-intensity combat was rapidly improving his ability to control the battle situation.

After all, it had been a long time since he had encountered an opponent who could match him.

At this moment, Gu Qinghan suddenly realized a problem: this place was practically a free training ground.

The most crucial thing was that this training ground wouldn't let him truly die, and he could even recruit a group of fearless subordinates.

"If just the outer perimeter of the Land of Blood Sorrow is this powerful, the other five locations must be similar. This time, I've hit the jackpot!"

Gu Qinghan felt a slight joy in his heart, but then suddenly noticed that all the blood on the surrounding ground was converging in a certain direction.

He looked in the direction where the blood was converging, only to see a graceful figure quickly outlined by the blood.
