"Young Master, hold on. We have to hide quickly. Master will definitely sense the appearance of the Star Stone and will find us. However, we have to hold on until the end." The housekeeper said bitterly.
When they came in, they saw the other party's cultivation and immediately surrendered. They didn't know that the island had such a strong defense. One had to know that the Star Stone was specially used to break barriers. Young Master Mo's father had spent a lot of money and connections to get it.
Even though they knew that the other party had a defense, they were still full of confidence. They believed that they could break a way out. However, reality gave them a heavy blow, shattering their hopes.
However, this flash of fluctuation could tell them the approximate location of the other party. It was just hard to say how long it would take.
Young Master Mo nodded. It was useless to say anything now. He could only hope that he could hold on until the end.
The moment the shield appeared, everyone in the base felt the fluctuation. The scar-faced man also noticed that the two of them were missing.
At this moment, his face turned grim as he looked coldly at everyone in front of him. It was as if he was checking if there were any of their accomplices in the crowd.
Gu Zheng felt the purple grid in his body begin to shrink. He felt as if his entire body was about to be torn apart. Painful cries could be heard from almost everyone. In the blink of an eye, almost 90% of the people had fainted.
Gu Zheng immediately knew what the other party was thinking. He let out a scream and fainted on the ground. He was the first to fall to the ground. His face was pale and his breathing was weak. In the next moment, he gave people the feeling that he was going to die.
In just a few seconds, the sound of people falling to the ground could be heard.
Only the immortals were still holding on. But this time, the scar-faced big man was ruthless. The immortals' faces suddenly changed. The scar-faced big man took out a purple bug and blew it at them.
The immortals trembled as if they were severely injured. Soon, they all fell to the ground. Their breathing was like a roller coaster. They almost fell to the bottom.
"Whoever dares to move will die in the next moment." The scar-faced man said sternly. He quickly left.
This was not a joke. If the outside world discovered this place, they would immediately detonate the spell formation they had prepared. They would sink the island. They would die here without even doing anything.
Besides, he could use the Insect Queen in his hands to make the other party beg for death.
Although he wanted to kill them now, he still needed to see the specific situation. The island's defensive formation was very strong. Even if the two of them escaped from the cave, they would not be able to set off from the island.
However, for something like this to happen to the people under his management, it was inevitable that he would be punished. He wasn't afraid of that, but the problem was that this matter would cause his rating to drop, and the time for him to get the Black Gold would be far away.
The three of them met on the platform outside. However, Miss Lian Rong remained in her room and did not come out. She did not seem to have noticed the situation outside.
"I say, Scar Face, you're really unlucky this time. It's actually your people who escaped. I saw that not a single one of my people is missing." The old man saw that he was old and mocked him.
"I know what to do. However, we should still capture the other party. Otherwise, if something unexpected happens, none of us will be able to escape," Scar Face harrumphed.
"Let's go. As long as he's on the island, he won't be able to escape. Let's go together." Although the three of them had the same cultivation level, Fat Head's status was clearly higher than theirs. Fat Head had a higher status than the other two.
"Let me see where they are." Scar Face brought out a purple-coloured bug. The bug raised its body slightly and sniffed the air. Then, it immediately squeaked like a mouse.
"Found them. They are in the forest on the western side of the mountain. They are actually hiding here," Scar Face said.
The three of them immediately rushed out. They had calculated this situation before. Thus, they had a countermeasure. There was no need to worry that the people inside would be able to get up.
However, this was the first time they had encountered such a situation. Although they had used their previous method to make everyone lose their abilities, they estimated that it would take at least half a month for them to barely be able to move. By then, they would have returned.
He never expected that something uncontrollable would happen.
After one joss stick's worth of time had passed since Scar Face left, a faint green light appeared on the bodies of the remaining four Immortal Cultivators. At the same time, the shackles on their bodies fell to the ground, losing their function.
After just two hours, the auras of the four Immortal Cultivators had recovered to 50%.
"I didn't think that they would be able to escape. Let's hurry out and see if there is an opportunity to help them," one of them suggested.
"All right." The other Immortal Cultivators knew that this was a rare opportunity. That was especially true now that the troublesome purple-coloured thing inside their bodies had been removed. This was their best chance. No matter what, they had to give it a try.
The four Immortal Cultivators quickly moved upwards. It did not take long for them to disappear, leaving the unconscious Immortal Cultivators on the ground.
After one joss stick's worth of time, one of the Immortal Cultivators on the ground secretly opened his eyes. After confirming that there was no one around, he jumped to his feet.
Earlier, Gu Zheng had noticed that there were too few raindrops. All of the black energy within Xiang Xiang's body had disappeared. However, the black dot formed by the strange snake remained unscathed. Seeing that made Gu Zheng very anxious.
He had wanted to wait for his next break to find an opportunity to enter the magic array and see if he could get more blue raindrops. In the end, something like this happened. Even the Heavens were on his side.
Gu Zheng swiftly moved to a corner. Extending his fist, he sent out gusts of strong winds to punch out a hole that was big enough for one person to enter. Then, he quickly made his way inside.
He realized that this was the weakest spot. If not for the fact that he was worried that the Immortal Cultivators would destroy the magic array inside, he would have broken it open long ago. Now, he was not afraid of the Immortal Cultivators at all.
That was because he did not feel any threat here. If not for Xiang Xiang, he would have left long ago.
Gu Zheng went in and took a look. Because the magic array had not been activated, it was peaceful inside. It was not much different from the outside.
Gu Zheng quickly went to the room inside. There was still a faint stench in the air. It gave Gu Zheng a familiar feeling.
Looking at the pitch-black pool below, there was a faint layer of golden light around it. It was imprisoning the black water. The magic array inside was also silent.
Gu Zheng only needed to study it a little to understand how to activate the magic array. It was actually very simple. As long as he found a node outside and injected energy, it would be activated.
Gu Zheng did not delay. He immediately activated one magic array after another. Soon, a purple mist appeared out of thin air from the magic array inside. Gu Zheng increased the output of his magic power, causing the two to reach the maximum power. The blue mist mixed out was more than three times more than before.
The entire black pool began to boil. The black pool began to drop at a speed visible to the naked eye. Gu Zheng directly placed the blue water droplet at the entrance. A long dragon formed by the blue mist continuously flowed inside.
After two days, Gu Zheng felt the cave suddenly shake slightly. It seemed that the outside had already started fighting.
At this time, in the world of the blue droplet, the whole world was covered in dark clouds. Black lightning filled the sky. No matter how far away it was, it all attacked Xiang Xiang's body.
The exterior of the fortress formed by the strange snake was cracking little by little. It fell and disappeared inside the body. In these two days, under the attack of the lightning, it had shrunk by a third. Moreover, it was still shrinking.
However, as the strange snake became smaller and smaller, its defense seemed to be getting bigger and bigger. From the beginning, it was a large amount of black mist falling down. Now, it was only a trace of black mist.
From the looks of it, he needed even more blue mist. Gu Zhengyi decided to go all out and directly increased the power of the formation by 50%. Golden light filled the room. This was the effect of the confinement formation at its peak.
Gu Zheng did not know how much time those people could buy for him. Since the other party had already started, he could be even more unscrupulous. Otherwise, when the situation was over and they discovered his actions, they would forcibly close the magic array or simply destroy it. That would be terrible.
Under Gu Zheng's prayer, the magic array here had been persisting in overloading and did not collapse. In just a short day, the black liquid was suddenly emptied. The black liquid below was actually emptied.
Of course, the amount that Gu Zheng extracted in these three days, if it was done by them, it would take at least half a year. This was because the blue mist had to be converted by the white crystal. Not only would it waste a lot of time, but it would also consume twice as much energy to produce the blue water droplet.
Even now, Gu Zheng did not dare to touch the blue mist.
However, the fortress in Xiang Xiang's body was still the size of a walnut. The closer it was to the end, the harder it would be to eliminate it. Gu Zheng suddenly thought of the other two passages. There was also a similar scene on the other side. Gu Zheng directly put away the small ball and quickly left.
He wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to eliminate the hidden danger in Xiang Xiang's body. This way, everything would be peaceful and he would not have to go to the outside world to find help.
When he passed by the hall and looked at the unconscious people on the ground, Gu Zheng hesitated for a moment. Then, he took out a small corner of a green leaf and threw it out. A green light appeared on the small leaf and shone on the people below, healing their injuries little by little.
At this time, there was no protection in the passage. Gu Zheng directly went to the top and swept with his spiritual sense. Then, he directly entered the passage on the opposite side.
This side was almost the same as the other side. The people on this side were all unconscious by the wall. When Gu Zheng came here, he found that there were five early stage Heaven Immortals looking at him.
Now, they were lying on the ground and looking at him angrily. They thought that Gu Zheng was also one of them.
In for a penny, in for a pound, Gu Zheng once again threw out the missing half leaf above their heads. Then, he flashed to the corner of the wall.
That half leaf stopped in mid-air. Surging green light shone down and rushed into their bodies. However, 90% of it went into the bodies of the five immortals.
Gu Zheng raised his golden fist and aimed at the weak spot. With a loud bang, another corner was blasted open. Then, he flashed in. Looking at the almost identical arrangement, Gu Zheng did not hesitate to take out the small blue ball and quickly repeated the steps on the other side.
Soon, blue mist appeared in the air and rushed into the small ball again. Gu Zheng watched closely and paid attention to the situation in Xie Xiaoxi's body.
With the new help, the fortress of the strange snake became smaller and smaller. Finally, it became the size of a grape seed. At this time, three days had passed. At this time, all the black liquid was gone. The pool below was empty. He did not know how the black liquid appeared.
Just a little bit more and he would be able to find out what was in Xie Xiaoxi's body.
When the lightning struck Xie Xiaoxi's body, it was actually just a trace of crystal inside. The rest turned into water and fell into the ocean. Gu Zheng felt that the entire sea level had risen a lot.
He needed new blue liquid to completely remove it. However, he had emptied both passages. Moreover, he could not see where the production source was. The other passage was the living area. There were no blue water droplets at all.
Gu Zheng could only retreat. At this time, the immortals outside had already sat up. Seeing Gu Zheng come out, one of them said in surprise.
"Senior, please help us."
The kindness from before made them know that Gu Zheng was not from here. They felt the aura from the outside. They did not think that the seemingly weak guy in front of them was really that weak.
At this time, they raised the shackles on their bodies. Although they did not know who Gu Zheng was, they knew that he was definitely not with the people here.
A few sword qi appeared behind Gu Zheng. A cold light flashed in the air. The shackles of the immortals were broken into pieces.
After the shackles were removed, the aura of the immortals slowly rose. Soon, they returned to the early stage of the Heaven Immortal Realm.
"Senior, is there something you need?" One of them saw that Gu Zheng's expression was not good. He stepped forward and asked.
"Do you know where the blue water droplets you collected can be found?" Gu Zheng asked them.
"These water droplets are taken away by the overseer every month. Perhaps they always carry them with them." That person replied.
"Stupid." Gu Zheng wanted to slap himself. He did not think of such a simple thing. He was only thinking about the water droplets inside. He was too concerned. He did not think that they would definitely have some of the water droplets in their hands.
"Thank you." Gu Zheng left behind a sentence and then disappeared from where he stood.
"Did you see how senior disappeared?" One of the immortals looked at Gu Zheng, who disappeared. He rubbed his eyes in disbelief. Indeed, there was no one there.
"No." Another person said in a hoarse voice. He didn't even notice how the other party had left this place.
Senior's strength was beyond everyone's expectations. It seemed that he might really be able to escape this place.
"Everyone, hurry up and follow him. Maybe we can help senior." One of them suddenly realised. Since Gu Zheng came for the blue water droplets and looted everything behind the wall, it was very likely that he went to find the overseer.
That thing was also very important to the overseer. He would definitely not give it to a stranger. There was a high chance that the two of them would fight. However, the overseer had many people. Although senior looked very powerful, he might not be able to defeat them.
When the others heard this, they understood and nodded. It was possible that they were the last straw. Because even if all of them worked together, there was no hope of escaping.
Outside, after a few days of escaping, Young Master Mo and the housekeeper were finally trapped in a plain.
At this time, there were two figures beside them. There were a total of four people. They looked at the three people standing in the distance, surrounding them in a triangle.
The four of them were basically bathed in blood. Their hair was disheveled, their breathing was erratic, and their steps were unsteady. They could only rely on each other to support themselves.
Even if the formation of the three people opposite them was not perfect at all and was full of loopholes, they did not have the strength to escape.
Two figures flew over from afar and landed heavily not far away, raising a cloud of grass.
They were the two companions from before. Now, their meridians were broken, and their bones were broken. It could be said that they were in a terrible state. They were only left with their last breath.
Even if they recovered, if they did not have a real treasure, they might not be able to use half of their strength. It could be said that they were crippled because no one would give such a thing to trash like them.
"Still want to run? Let's see where you can run to." The scarred man's voice came from afar. These few days, he was almost driven crazy by that brat. Didn't he already search their things before coming in? How could there still be so many magic treasures?
They did not notice it for a while. Although they were not injured, they were covered in dust. Now, they were full of anger.
Young Master Mo and the others did not have the strength to escape. Although there were six of them before, their condition was not perfect. It could be said that they were completely abused. If it was not for the fact that the other party did not want to kill them, how could they survive until now?
"Housekeeper, it seems that we won't be able to wait for Father to come this time." Young Master Mo said while panting. He had overestimated himself and wanted to rely on hiding to buy time.
However, he did not know what method the other party used. Basically, they could find his approximate position at the first moment. He could not hide for long.
"Don't worry, young man. When you were young, there was an expert who told your fortune. He said that you are very lucky and will be fine." The housekeeper comforted him while vomiting blood. However, at this time, how could Young Master Mo still believe him?
The four of them had already received very serious injuries. It was a miracle that they could survive until now. Seeing the other party gradually approaching, the soaring aura had already closed in. It made them feel a little suffocated. They felt that their miracle was not going to last long.
Suddenly, five shocking auras came from afar at an extremely fast speed, attracting everyone's attention. Even the fat man, the old man, and the scarred man stopped and looked over vigilantly.
Soon, five figures stood in the open space at the side, looking at the two parties with surprise and doubt.
"Why isn't Senior here?" One of them whispered. On the way, they deliberately slowed down. Normally, Senior should have arrived here long ago.
However, the situation in front of them seemed to be different from what they had imagined. Seeing that everyone's eyes were focused on them, they knew that they had to go first.
No matter what, they were now in peak condition, and the other party had already wasted so many days. Maybe a miracle would happen and they would be defeated in one fell swoop.
