Since the other side had no backup, the group began to act according to the plan. Although the plan was simple, there was only one person on the other side. There was no need for a complicated plan, as long as there was a strong force behind it.
Fourth Rabbit and Second Lang stealthily crept over from afar. Third Jia and Fifth Ding slowed down their pace and walked over openly.
Gu Zheng was feeling the concealment method that Little Worm had racked his brains to give him. It could hide his aura. As long as they were not stronger than him, they would not be able to see through Gu Zheng's aura. However, they would be able to roughly sense his cultivation level.
He had barely grasped a bit of it, and could not release it perfectly.
This was a spell that every Shura had to learn when they traveled the Untainted Land. Little Worm had been in Shura for so many years, and had also traveled with Xiao Nan for so long. She knew much more about the Shura Tribe than Gu Zheng. They were not on the same level.
Unfortunately, the Shura Tribe's spells, especially the stronger ones, were only suitable for Shuras. Otherwise, Little Worm would definitely show Gu Zheng what Shura Break was and what Evil Demon Palm was. Unfortunately, Little Worm did not know how to do it.
"Someone is coming," Little Worm warned in a low voice.
Gu Zheng opened his eyes and stopped comprehending. Although he knew immediately that someone was coming, so did Little Worm. Perhaps it was out of habit, perhaps it was out of kindness, or perhaps it was something else. No matter what, Gu Zheng was grateful for Little Worm's warning.
From their first contact, he knew that Little Worm was a good-hearted girl. In the forest, he had angered her. Even if she was unwilling, she had not once pointed him in the wrong direction and led him astray.
Gu Zheng looked at the approaching people and became alert. Although he knew some of the situation here, who knew what the other side was thinking? It was better to be careful.
One was cold, and the other was cruel. Looking at their eyes, Gu Zheng knew that they did not come with good intentions. Their cultivations were around the middle stage of Jin Xian. He did not know if there were any other enemies around.
Gu Zheng turned his head and looked around. He did not find anything, but it was possible that the other side had hidden themselves and he could not find them.
At the same time, Little Worm said that she would inform him if anything happened. This warmed Gu Zheng's heart.
"Who are you two?" Gu Zheng decided to try peaceful means before resorting to force. The other party definitely had more than just the two people on the surface.
He didn't even know that the root of the problem was him.
The other two didn't say anything. They stared at Gu Zheng with undisguised murderous intent, as if they were looking at a lamb waiting to be slaughtered.
As the two of them approached, the atmosphere grew increasingly tense. Gu Zheng drew his sword and pointed it at the two of them. "If you come any closer, I won't hold back." Gu Zheng did not care who the other party was. If they provoked him, he would make them pay the price.
The three Jia's and five Ding's looked at each other. Based on their cooperation, they understood each other's intentions.
This Shura was most likely a Sword Immortal. Although many of the Shura's weapons were long swords, they could clearly sense that their long-range and close-range attacks were not ordinary. However, the two of them already knew how difficult it was to deal with Shuras.
The two of them drew their weapons at the same time. One from the left and one from the right, the other from the right. The third Jia's weapon was a long spear, with specks of starlight revolving around its tip.
The fifth Ding's weapon was a short sword. The short sword was shorter than a normal short sword, more like a lengthened dagger. There were streaks of light flashing on it. It seemed that it was not an ordinary item.
"Brother, can you explain?" Gu Zheng parried the other party's attacks left and right. Under the storm-like attacks of the three Jia's and five Ding's, he was still able to find the time to say a few words. It was clear that he was not using his full strength.
The three Jia's and five Ding's did not reply at all. They just kept on attacking Gu Zheng, all of their attacks aimed at his vitals.
Speaking of which, the combination of a long weapon and a short weapon was not bad. If it was someone of the same level, they would not be able to block it at all. In fact, if they were one level higher than them, they might make mistakes and suffer minor injuries in their panic.
Gu Zheng passively defended. Although he was not injured, he was still passively taking a beating. Even a clay figurine would have some anger.
Gu Zheng showed a flaw, causing the third Jia to stab his shoulder blade. The fifth Ding took this opportunity to roll towards Gu Zheng. His dagger-like long sword slashed towards Gu Zheng's legs like a gust of wind. If he was hit by this attack, it seemed like he wanted to cripple both of his legs.
Gu Zheng's left leg kicked towards the fifth Ding's arm like lightning, forcing the fifth Ding to take a step back. Seeing that the third Jia was about to succeed, Gu Zheng snorted coldly. He lowered his body and dodged this spear that was sure to hit.
At the same time, his right hand held the top of the spear and shook it. The long spear vibrated at a high frequency. Wave after wave of vibrations rushed towards the third Jia. The third Jia had no choice but to let go of the spear. That strength was too terrifying. The vibrations caused the blood in his heart to boil. If this continued, his arm would be shaken off.
The third Jia, who was still thinking of persevering, immediately gave up on the long spear. He leaned forward and punched towards Gu Zheng's chest. That area was now exposed.
Seeing this, the fifth Ding threw away the long sword in his hand and continued to fly towards Gu Zheng's lower body in a semicircle. He immediately bent his waist and dodged. He went around Gu Zheng's back. His speed was so fast that it even stirred up a cloud of dust on the ground.
A phoenix cry sounded out of nowhere. The fifth Ding's speed had reached the limit. A red glow was attached to his leg. He directly lifted his leg and kicked towards Gu Zheng's waist.
Gu Zheng had schemed against them. The third Jia and the fifth Ding were also scheming against Gu Zheng. They finally got a chance. No matter what, they had to give it a try. They got the results in an instant.
At this dangerous moment, the third Jia and the fifth Ding believed that no matter what, Gu Zheng would not be able to dodge.
"We've lost." The captain watched all of this from nearby. He had not sensed it yet, but he had no choice but to step forward. This Shura was really very strong. To be honest, at this moment, he really regretted coming to stop Gu Zheng. The opponent in front of him was indeed very strong. At least, they were no match for him now.
Gu Zheng looked like he would die in the next moment. However, he saw the corner of Gu Zheng's mouth curl up slightly. The third Jia was slightly stunned. They did not understand why he could still smile. However, they did not stop.
This seemed to be dangerous, but to Gu Zheng, it was still not enough. He needed to draw out more of his opponent's strength.
With a slight twist of his wrist, the long spear slashed across his palm. It slanted downwards and pierced towards the short sword at lightning speed. The sound of metal clashing rang out. The short sword was directly sent flying by the tip of the spear. It slashed across a few trees and finally embedded itself in a tree.
Then, the long spear was deeply inserted into the ground. Gu Zheng held the upper end of the spear with both hands and pulled it back. The body of the spear bent and squeaked. His body moved horizontally in mid-air. He took advantage of the situation and kicked Gu Zheng's waist. However, Wu Ding's astonishingly long leg was slower by half a beat due to Gu Zheng's retreat. It did not touch him at all. It only lifted the corner of Gu Zheng's clothes.
As Wu Ding was sent flying, Gu Zheng put down the long spear in his hand. His body slid down and the long spear rebounded fiercely with inertia. The third Jia, who missed his punch, happened to look at the long spear that suddenly appeared in front of him with a stunned expression.
The third Jia, who was caught off guard, had a bloody mark left on his face. He spat out a mouthful of blood on the spot and was sent flying.
In less than a second, the encirclement was instantly broken. The third Jia and Wu Ding were sent flying and lying on the ground. They would not be able to get up for a while.
Gu Zheng hated the fact that the other party did not hold back and wanted to kill him with every move. This time, he was ruthless. However, when he saw the other party's black eyes, he still held back and did not kill him.
Otherwise, his opponent would not have ended up like this. It would have been as simple as spitting out a few mouthfuls of blood. However, even if he held back, his opponent would still have to lie down for a while.
Before Gu Zheng could catch his breath, a scorching and berserk aura filled with fatal danger attacked him from behind. Soaring flames rose from his back and filled the sky as they quickly attacked Gu Zheng. Under an invisible force, the flames quickly gathered into fire snakes and charged over. Each snake maliciously charged at Gu Zheng and stuck out their fiery-red tongues in the air.
Accompanied by a domineering tiger roar, a huge tiger appeared behind Lin Yun. That huge body contained boundless power. Above its golden eyes, the 'King' character on its forehead was flickering. In the next second, the 'King' character appeared on its forehead and swelled with the wind into a huge 'King' character that descended from the sky.
His target was Gu Zheng, and he pounced at Gu Zheng with a terrifying aura. Although the tiger's expression seemed to have withered a bit, that was Er Hu's Life Spell, and it consumed a lot of energy. However, he couldn't care about anything else right now, and his body still pounced without hesitation.
Gu Zheng knew that he did not kill him, but the Four Rabbits and Two Wolves did not know that. They watched as their companions were sent flying and lying on the ground without being able to block two attacks. It was unknown whether they were dead or alive.
They were afraid that Gu Zheng would kill them and wanted to stall for time for their captain. Who would have thought that the third Jia and Wu Ding would be defeated so quickly? They did not want to stall for time.
As for Sixth Monkey, he was a little far away. He only threw a dart that whistled through the air. It wasn't used to injure Gu Zheng, but to prevent Gu Zheng from killing the Three Jia and Five Ding who were lying on the ground.
Even if it could delay the other party for a bit, it would be enough. The captain behind him had already sped up.
Looking at the fire snakes that filled the sky, the momentum was strong, but it was obvious that this was a hastily cast spell. Gu Zheng immediately formed a seal with his palms. A green leaf shadow appeared above Gu Zheng's head. Under the urging of Gu Zheng's magic power, it quickly sprouted and grew into a sapling.
The sapling's leaves were clear and green and looked incomparably fresh. However, circles of green light appeared around the sapling. In the next moment, the circles of light seemed to have received some kind of command and formed an incomparably huge circle of light that shrouded the sapling.
A green light erupted from the sapling, and the seemingly incomparably powerful Fire Serpents turned into balls of flames. They fell from the sky, and the flames that filled the sky were swept away.
However, it was still not enough. The sapling slowly and quickly grew into a mini towering tree. Lush leaves hung all over the tree, and it happened to be in the middle of the descending 'King' character.
The glittering 'King' character collided with the mini tree. Although the 'King' character was still slowly descending, its speed was getting slower and slower. The leaves on the mini tree kept falling, and in the blink of an eye, almost all of them had fallen. The tree made unbearable creaking sounds, as if it was going to break in the next second.
Gu Zheng was not worried at all. He just casually covered himself with a circular protective shield.
The 'King' character finally stopped descending. The mini tree finally blocked the opponent's attack. In the next second, there was a loud bang, and the mini tree and the opponent directly exploded.
A small white mushroom exploded from above, and a huge wave of clouds and fog blasted in all directions, blocking the vision of the surrounding people. The mighty tiger was forced to stop and dodge back to avoid the huge explosion of energy.
The darts of Six Monkeys were stuck in the ground, making a small hole. Gu Zheng did not have the intention to chase after the two injured people. Naturally, the darts did not attack.
When the cloud and fog splashed up had not dissipated, a fiery red long whip refracted from afar. Before the cloud and fog dissipated, it blocked the enemy's vision and directly shot out from the cloud and fog, thrusting towards Gu Zheng's face like lightning.
Gu Zheng seemed to have known this long ago. He didn't panic and directly grabbed the long whip in front of his eyes with his hand glowing with golden light. Following this substantial flame long whip, he suddenly swung this unknown enemy up and prepared to throw her to the ground at a 180-degree angle.
Outside the cloud and fog, a three meter tall rabbit holding a flame long whip in its hand was directly lifted into the air by Gu Zheng.
Seeing that the situation was bad, Four Rabbits let go of the whip in midair and directly used Thousand Pound Fall to step on Gu Zheng's head. A layer of hazy white light appeared on Four Rabbits' body, and like a meteor, they fell towards Gu Zheng.
From Gu Zheng's point of view, this attack was not as threatening as the fire snake's attack.
Gu Zheng let go of the whip in his hand, raised his palm, and slapped towards Four Rabbits. It looked soft and without a trace of strength.
But Four Rabbits' body trembled, and the layer of light outside disappeared. There was a scream, and Four Rabbits was directly sent flying by Gu Zheng's palm, crashing into Six Monkeys, who had just arrived on the battlefield.
"Ouch!" Six Monkeys, who did not react in time, rolled a few times with Four Rabbits.
"Back off, Two Tigers." Seeing that Two Tigers was still eager to fight, a majestic voice exploded in the sky. Two Tigers did not hesitate to retreat to his companions' side, protecting them.
Gu Zheng stood still, squinting his eyes as he looked at the deep forest opposite him. A tall and strong man walked out unhurriedly, and even had the interest to twist his neck, making cracking sounds.
Gu Zheng understood that the main character had appeared. The man opposite him had a relaxed expression, and was constantly sizing him up.
Four Jin Xian intermediate stage and one late Heaven Immortal stage. It was impossible for them to attack someone stronger than them without a word. There was clearly a leader behind them, and these people were here to test them.
Gu Zheng looked at the man in front of him, and thought that they might have been living here all this time, and that they called themselves the Abandoned People.
"Who are you? I have no enmity with any of you. This is the first time we meet, and we don't want to fight." Gu Zheng said with sincerity. If he was not wrong, they might be allies. As long as he said it out loud, everything would be fine. At least, that was what he thought.
"Hey, brat, you just came out, right? Didn't your family tell you to be careful outside? Your poor acting skills are not bad. "Six Monkeys held his chest and mocked. That hit was really painful.
Gu Zheng still did not understand how obvious the aura on his body was. To the Abandoned People, that aura was the source of their pain for the rest of their lives.
"Don't talk nonsense. Since you hurt my brother, no matter who you are, I will have to ask you for advice."
This man, Wu Xiaofeng, looked at Gu Zheng with a sharp gaze. This Shura was indeed a little strange, and did not look like someone from the other side.
Wu Xiaofeng could see that Gu Zheng was really going easy on him, but he did have the unique aura of the Shura on him.
Every Shura here had a ring. If one did not have one, they would not be able to enter. And the people who were sent here definitely did not have one.
More importantly, from the exchange just now, the other party did not have the unique magic of the Shura. He looked more like a strong sword cultivator from the outside world. Although there were some Shura who did not cultivate the magic of their race, and instead took other people as their master.
The other party was definitely not at the level of Daluo Jinxian, because this was not a place for people of that level. If he was deliberately hiding and wanted to do something, then there was no telling. There were also people on Wu Xiaofeng's side who were hiding, but before they went, they were all prepared. None of them were like this, appearing here so casually.
Wu Xiaofeng was actually also confused, but whether or not the other party was an Shura, he would know after a fight. Although the other party was very strong, Wu Xiaofeng was confident that if the other party did not fight with his full strength, then the other party would really die. Whether or not the other party was an Shura, he would know after a fight.
Gu Zheng watched as the other party's eyes slowly sharpened. He knew that this fight was unavoidable. Knowing that there was no point in talking, Gu Zheng prepared himself for battle. The pressure that the other party gave him was very strong. At the very least, it was stronger than the black-clothed man.
If only the other party was an enemy. A gourd gourd was guaranteed to take the other party's head. The others would not be able to escape. Unfortunately, these people were on his side.
Gu Zheng did not want to offend the only organization here. If there were other ways to find out what was going on here, there were too many of them.
Wu Xiaofeng stood 10 metres away from Gu Zheng. The two of them looked at each other from afar. This distance was no different from facing each other.
An invisible whirlwind appeared out of thin air. Two Tigers and Six Monkeys quickly moved the others to a farther place. They knew just how destructive their Captain's all-out attack was.
Wu Xiaofeng slowly pulled out a long blade from his back. Every move he made appeared very slow, as if he was moving in slow motion. However, in the blink of an eye, the long blade was already in front of Gu Zheng.
Wu Xiaofeng's aura grew thicker and thicker. He pointed at Gu Zheng without moving.
That monstrous aura directly formed a mini silver dragon, circling above his head. It kept moving up and down. From time to time, it would open its mouth and roar towards the sky.
It was like a real ancient dragon's aura.
Gu Zheng did not want to let the other party continue to condense his aura. He could imagine how terrifying it would be in the end.
Gu Zheng quickly folded his hands. An immortal sword floated in the air and trembled slightly. Complicated hand gestures were constantly changing in front of his chest, forming illusory images.
The trembling of the immortal sword became louder and louder. As Gu Zheng completed his last hand gesture, the immortal sword made a sound as if it had just been pulled out of its scabbard. It flew into the sky. One divided into two, two divided into four, and finally formed 16 immortal swords in the air.
Gu Zheng stretched out his hand and pointed. All the swords stopped spinning. The 16 groups of immortal swords were divided into two rows, with 12 swords in the top row. The swords were glowing faintly. The tips of the swords were pointed at Wu Xiaofeng's head.
