The immortals at the foot of the mountain began to discuss again. The news spread very quickly. Although the mountain top was the residence of the elders, it was not forbidden for other immortals to go up. Moreover, there were immortals serving the elders.
After Gu Zheng and Taotie heard this, they laughed together.
The seven immortals were much slower than them. It took them ten days to come back. However, this was the normal speed. After they came back, they went to report this matter. Obviously, Gu Zheng's warning did not have any effect. These people were not alerted by the death of the three immortals. On the contrary, they were even angrier.
This was also good. This was enough to prove that they did not come in vain.
"Let's go!"
Gu Zheng whispered to Taotie. Taotie nodded slightly. The two of them flew up the mountain together. Their speed was not fast, but it attracted a lot of attention.
At this time, everyone knew that the great elder was angry. Unexpectedly, someone dared to fly up the mountain. However, they did not think much about it. At this time, those who dared to go up the mountain were either the great elder's confidants or those who were summoned by the elders.
As for whether they were looking for trouble, no one thought about it. This was the headquarters of the Wizard Slayer Alliance. Several Great Elders were Golden Immortals of the Great All-Embracing Heaven. Who dared to look for trouble? It was not looking for trouble, but seeking death.
At the top of the mountain, there was a big hall. Three people were at the top. There were dozens of people below. Among them, seven people were standing in the middle. They lowered their heads and looked worried.
These seven people were the ones who luckily came back from Gu Zheng's place. Before they came back, they had discussed what to say. After all, Hu Feng's identity was different. This time, Hu Feng died there. It was hard to guarantee that the great elder would be angry. Therefore, on the way back, they only said that the prefectural city's people were domineering and looked down on them.
Not only that, the prefectural city's people also said that whoever made a move would die. Hu Feng and the other two were killed because of this.
The seven people tried their best to deny their responsibility. They had said Gu Zheng's warning. This just proved that Gu Zheng's people were arrogant. They only hoped that the great elder would be angry and not punish them.
"Just one slash. Is that person really Jin Xian middle stage?"
The Great Elder was still angry, so the one who asked was the Second Elder. The seven of them had already explained everything in detail. The Great Elder didn't speak because of his anger and sadness, so the Second Elder asked carefully.
"It's true. That person is really in the middle stage of Jin Xian, but he's really powerful. Senior Brother Hu Feng and the other two all died at his hands. He has an inexplicable ability to make people disappear. Other than Senior Brother Hu Feng, he used this method to kill Senior Brother Yao and the others!"
The remaining late-stage Jin Xian hurriedly explained.
"A Jin Xian in the middle stage could actually kill a Jin Xian in the peak stage in a head-on confrontation with a single slash. What kind of immortal technique is that?!"
The Second Elder's eyes sparkled as he muttered to himself. Unlike the others, he was the wisest person in the entire Monster-slaying League.
In a head-on confrontation, Jin Xian in the middle stage could kill a Jin Xian in the peak stage with a Celestial Weapon of the same level. Moreover, he didn't use any other magic weapons. There was only one explanation for this — this person had an extremely brilliant immortal technique that could kill people of a higher level.
In the early stage of the Untainted Land, where magic weapons were the most important, many people didn't value immortal techniques that much. In the late stage of the Untainted Land, when all kinds of innate magic weapons were either collected by the Holy Immortals or destroyed, immortal techniques began to shine.
However, it had to be said that this Second Elder was indeed very smart. His guess was correct. What Gu Zheng used was a brilliant saber technique, which was equivalent to an immortal technique.
"No matter what realm he is in, I want him dead!"
The Great Elder suddenly said. His eyes were filled with ruthlessness, and his body was shrouded in a murderous aura.
"Is that so? That's a good idea, but you have to have the ability to do so!"
A voice suddenly came from outside. Soon, two people flew directly to the main hall, landed on the ground, and walked forward slowly.
"Who are you? Who asked you to come here?"
A Jin Xian immediately walked out of the main hall and asked them with a frown. The two Elders standing above also turned around and stared straight at them.
There were currently four Elders in the Wizard Slayer Alliance. However, Taoist Wuyun hadn't arrived yet, and the Third Elder had also gone out. Currently, there were only two Elders here. Gu Zheng didn't know about this before, so he didn't deliberately inquire about this information. To Gu Zheng, no matter how many Elders were here, he would still come, so it didn't matter.
On the other hand, Taotie seemed a little disappointed when he saw that there were only two Daluo Jinxian.
"You, it's you!"
The seven Jin Xian who came back were all shocked when they saw Gu Zheng. Some of them even had fear in their eyes and couldn't help but retreat.
"Great Elder, he's Gokusen. He's the Gokusen who killed Senior Brother Hu Feng!"
The Jin Xian in the late stage seemed to have thought of something and hurriedly turned around and shouted at the stage. For a moment, everyone was stunned. The Jin Xian who killed Hu Feng dared to come here and even enter the main hall.
"It's him?"
The Second Elder's eyes flashed again, and he looked at Gu Zheng with interest.
"It's him, it's him!"
The seven Jin Xian pointed together, and one of the Jin Xian said loudly, "He must have followed us here. Great Elder, you have to avenge Senior Brother Hu Feng. Senior Brother Hu Feng died too miserably!"
Hu Feng died very miserably, and there wasn't even a corpse left. However, Gu Zheng really didn't follow them here. Gu Zheng had arrived a few days earlier than them, but they didn't know this.
"You killed Hu Feng!"
The Great Elder suddenly walked down from the stage. With every step he took, the murderous intent on his body increased. The Second Elder opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but in the end, he didn't say anything.
"I've said it before. Whether you have a request or not, I have my own rules. My rules are that no one is allowed to make a move in my place. Otherwise, I'll kill without mercy!"
Gu Zheng smiled and nodded. His last words carried a strong murderous intent.
"Hahahahaha!"
The Great Elder suddenly raised his head and laughed, but the murderous intent on his body became stronger. He suddenly stopped laughing and looked straight at Gu Zheng. He kept nodding: "Good, good, very good, very good!"
He said a few words, but the people around him could hear that he was angry, extremely angry.
"Since I started cultivating, you're the first person who dares to speak to me like this. I sincerely hope that you won't regret it. Never regret it!"
"I won't regret it. But you, I also hope that you won't regret it!"
Gu Zheng gently shook his head. Everyone in the hall was shocked by his attitude. This was just a Jin Xian, but he dared to speak to Daluo Jinxian like this. Moreover, he came to the headquarters of the Witch Slaying Alliance. Did this person really not know the consequences of doing this?
The Second Elder didn't say anything, but there was a smile on his face. He kept staring at Gu Zheng.
"Kill him!"
The Great Elder suddenly shouted. Dozens of Jin Xian around him were stunned. Then, they moved together and attacked Gu Zheng.
The bloodstains suddenly spread out, and the entire hall was dyed red. The entire sky seemed to be covered by the bloodstains. The people at the foot of the mountain were shocked. They stared blankly at the top of the mountain, at the sky dyed red.
Tao was faster than Gu Zheng. He stepped forward and slashed. With just one slash, all the Jin Xian who rushed forward were cut in half.
"Daluo Jinxian!"
The Great Elder blurted out. The smile on the Second Elder's face disappeared. Tao retreated. However, the more than 20 people who had attacked together were now lying on the ground with their heads separated from their bodies.
One slash killed more than 20 people. It was as simple as killing three Jin Xian with one slash.
No one would have thought that the inconspicuous black boy who had been following Gu Zheng was Daluo Jinxian. They also didn't expect that he was so powerful. The red blood made the Great Elder and the Second Elder tremble.
"Who are you?"
The First Elder questioned loudly. The Second Elder had already walked down and stood beside the First Elder. The other party actually had a Golden Immortal, which was completely out of their expectations. Things were no longer as simple as he had imagined, so he had to take it seriously.
Taotie slowly took off his hat, revealing a pale face. His face was very pale, but it was clear that he looked exactly the same as Gu Zheng, who was standing beside him.
"Twin brothers?"
Many people had already understood that this was a pair of twin brothers. The two of them looked exactly the same.
"Who was the one who killed Hu Feng?"
The Second Elder suddenly asked. The two of them looked exactly the same, but one was in the middle stage of Jin Xian, and the other was Daluo Jinxian. Not only him, but the others also thought of it. Could it be that they had made a mistake? The one who killed Hu Feng was Daluo Jinxian, making them mistakenly think that it was the middle stage of Jin Xian?
"It's him, it's him!"
Jin Xian pointed at Gu Zheng and said. Even if the two of them looked the same, he knew very well that it was Gu Zheng who killed Hu Feng. He killed Hu Feng with one slash.
The two of them looked the same, but their temperaments were completely different. Gu Zheng was calm and magnanimous, but Tao was feminine. Even people who saw them for the first time could tell them apart, not to mention that their cultivations were completely different. At that time, Gu Zheng showed that he was in the middle stage of Jin Xian.
The Second Elder frowned. If it was really Gu Zheng who killed Hu Feng, then the fighting strength of these two people would have to be reevaluated. A technique that allowed a middle stage Jin Xian to kill a peak stage Jin Xian, when used by Daluo Jinxian, what would the result be?
The two of them were exactly the same. Many people thought that the things they knew should be the same. They didn't know that Tao didn't learn the Crazy Demon Saber Technique, and only Gu Zheng knew it.
"Is this where your confidence comes from?"
The Great Elder asked again. He regretted letting his subordinates attack just now. He didn't expect that the opponent had the name Daluo Jinxian. He also didn't expect that the opponent's Daluo Jinxian would be the first to attack, which led to the loss of more than 20 Jin Xian at once.
This was Jin Xian, not a large number of celestial immortals. It wasn't easy for them to recruit Jin Xian this time. After all, the total number of humans was there, and there weren't many Jin Xian.
"You can understand it this way. I'm here to tell you that you're doing things wrong. Hegemony is not desirable. You can be proud for a while, but you can't be proud forever!"
Gu Zheng shook his head gently. Hegemony, at the time, looked good, and no one dared to refute you. However, the hidden danger had already been buried. The Goblin was a classic example. Although there were many Goblin, once the battle started, too many deserters would greatly affect the morale. It was normal for the Goblin, three times the number of the Wu people, to lose to the Wu people.
The Goblin's thinking was still a little simple. The human race was more complicated. If they still used this kind of hegemony, they would only be destroyed in the end.
Even in the future, the big shots also used the Investiture War to determine the Heaven Realm. They didn't forcibly recruit people into the Heaven Realm at the beginning and finally establish the Heavenly Court.
"Who do you think you are? How dare you lecture me!"
Gu Zheng's words didn't have any effect. The Great Elder shouted fiercely. Tao slowly raised the saber in his hand and stared straight at the Great Elder.
"Stubborn!"
Gu Zheng's eyes narrowed slightly. This Great Elder was very stubborn. Moreover, the one who died was the disciple he was most proud of. It was almost impossible for him to bury the hatchet with him. Gu Zheng was not a pedantic person. At this time, killing intent had already risen in his heart.
Since he was destined to be an enemy, and a powerful one at that, the best way was to completely eliminate him.
Tao and Gu Zheng could be said to be connected. Gu Zheng only narrowed his eyes, and Tao already understood Gu Zheng's meaning. A wave of killing intent also filled his heart.
In this world, other than Gu Zheng, there was nothing else that Tao cared about. The only thing he cared about was Gu Zheng. He wouldn't allow anyone to hurt Gu Zheng. From the moment he was born, from the moment he opened his eyes, he was together with Gu Zheng. Later on, he was forced to leave. However, this kind of relationship was incomparable.
"Kill!"
Gu Zheng suddenly said a word. Tao had already rushed forward. The bloodstains appeared again. This time, the area was bigger and fiercer than before. The people at the foot of the mountain saw that the top of the mountain was covered with red again.
"You are courting death!"
The Great Elder fiercely shouted and took out a long whip immortal tool. This immortal tool was actually a Xiantian treasure. However, its level was not particularly high.
However, a Xiantian treasure was a Xiantian treasure. It was more powerful than an ordinary immortal tool. No one knew the origin of Tao's saber. This Xiantian treasure wrapped around the saber. The saber didn't suffer any damage. However, the Xiantian treasure was corroded and smoking.
"Impudent!"
The Second Elder also attacked. He couldn't watch the Great Elder being attacked. However, his target was Gu Zheng. He stretched out his big hand and directly grabbed Gu Zheng.
"Treasure, please turn around!"
A yellow scroll appeared in front of Gu Zheng and blocked the big hand. At the same time, he bent his body and a white light flew out of the gourd. The Second Elder was shocked and disappeared in an instant.
Without a target, the gourd calmed down. Gu Zheng felt helpless. These Daluo Jinxian were not easy to kill. Everyone had their own methods.
At this time, Tao and the Great Elder were entangled in a fierce battle. Obviously, the Great Elder was defending while Tao was attacking. Moreover, it was very difficult to defend. Even its treasure was damaged.
"Brother Hua, help me!"
With no other choice, the Great Elder could only call out. Hua Tian was the Second Elder's name. At this moment, he had rushed in from outside the main hall. There was still a trace of lingering fear on his face. Just now, he had truly been given a fright.
"Immortal Flying Saber, how are you related to Lu Ya?"
Hua Tian had already recognized Gu Zheng's treasure. When he went to help the Great Elder, he directly asked. Gu Zheng completely ignored him and waved the Book of Life and Death to block him.
"Ge Xu, from Mount Donglai. Daluo Jinxian, one of the earliest cultivators of the human race. What a pity!"
Gu Zheng held the Soul Hooking Brush and found the Great Elder's name. He directly reached out and drew.
He hadn't been idle these days. He had been investigating the situation of the people here. The three elders were the most important. At this time, no one had the intention to hide anything. The Great Elder was the leader. Everyone knew his identity very well.
Just like this, Gu Zheng found the Great Elder's disciple and found his name in the Book of Life and Death.
This wasn't the future. Daluo Jinxian's name would have been crossed out of the Book of Life and Death. At this time, the Book of Life and Death included all living creatures of the five elements. Even Daluo Jinxian, who hadn't jumped out of the five elements, was still in it.
It wasn't that easy to jump out of the five elements. Even Daluo Jinxian was still in the five elements. Only when one's cultivation reached the Sage-to-be could one really jump out of the five elements.
However, a few powerful Daluo Jinxian could also do it. Obviously, the Great Elder in front of him was not one of them.
"The Book of Life and Death, the Book of Life and Death, a Primordial Treasure!"
Second Elder Hua Tian was stunned for a moment before he let out a cry of surprise. His cry caused the Grand Elder to come to a realization.
Hua Tian was experienced and knowledgeable. He hadn't recognized what the yellow scroll was before, but now he saw the words on it. Gu Zheng had to open the scroll to defend against Daluo Jinxian, so there was no way to hide it.
The Book of Life and Death was one of the Three Books of Heaven, Earth, and Man. It was a true Connate Cardinal Treasure. Its level was even higher than the Immortal-Slaying Flying Saber. As for the long whip in the Great Elder's hand, it was far inferior to the Book of Life and Death.
The Sage Immortal name they had used was Zhen Yuanzi. Zhen Yuanzi's most powerful Dharma treasure was the Earth Membrane, which was one of the Three Books of Heaven, Earth, and Man. This was the Man Book, which was as famous as the Earth Book. It was no wonder that Hua Tian had lost his composure.
By the time he exclaimed, Gu Zheng had already finished writing.
Ge Xu's name suddenly disappeared from the scroll. A strong suction force appeared on Ge Xu's body. Gu Zheng's strength had increased, and the power of the Book of Life and Death had increased.
In an instant, Ge Xu came to his senses and hurriedly suppressed the leakage of his soul power.
However, how could he be distracted in a battle between experts? While he was distracted, the Taoist seized the opportunity and chopped down with its blood-colored blade.
"Brother Ge!"
Hua Tian couldn't care less about Gu Zheng. His body disappeared again, and when he reappeared, he had already grabbed Ge Xu's body and was retreating with all his might.
Although he had grabbed Ge Xu in time, Ge Xu hadn't been able to escape the Taoist's blade. His right arm had been chopped off by the Taoist, and most of the blood in his body had disappeared. His entire body had become dispirited.
Moreover, his bleeding wound couldn't be stopped at all.
Hua Tian was aghast. He couldn't care less about the others in the hall and disappeared again with Ge Xu.
"Is it similar to a teleportation technique? You won't be able to escape!"
Gu Zheng's eyes flashed coldly again. He ignored the other Immortals in the hall and flew out with the Taoist in pursuit.
Hua Tian's technique was indeed similar to a teleportation technique. It was different from an escape technique, which could allow one to escape very far away. This was a short escape technique, which could only allow one to escape 50 kilometers away. When he reappeared, he was already 50 kilometers away.
