Lord Bai suddenly extended his hand and a blue, watery light appeared between his fingers. He gently grabbed at Gu Zheng and the tip of his fingers began to flash. At the same time, his five fingers became somewhat translucent.
Rays of blue light suddenly shot out from his five fingers. The moment they left his hand, they grew in size. Numerous blue water swords abruptly appeared in the air and shot towards Gu Zheng with sharp sword lights.
Looking at the rain swords in the sky, Gu Zheng only raised his hand and a transparent barrier covered his body. The rain swords were like a torrential rain. When they hit the barrier, crackling sounds could be heard.
Specks of blue light continued to appear and submerged his entire body.
Peng, peng, peng. Endless sounds echoed in the air. It was like hail falling on a roof.
Fluctuations continued to rise and spread out.
Without waiting for the rain swords to finish descending, Lord Bai took out a black token from his bosom and threw it forward. The token suddenly expanded a few hundred times and floated in the air like a small mountain.
The moment it appeared, it pressed down on Gu Zheng's head. Countless rays of black light came from the smooth bottom and penetrated the cracks in the sky. They stuck to Gu Zheng's barrier. In the blink of an eye, it was as if Gu Zheng had put on a black coat and was corroding Gu Zheng's barrier.
Gu Zheng also felt the threat from above. The mountain hadn't even landed yet, but a powerful pressure was already pressing down on him. Gu Zheng only felt the air around him being pushed out and the ground under his feet cracked.
When the rain swords stopped, the mountain landed on the barrier. Crack! The black light on the mountain rotated and countless cracks appeared on the barrier. The barrier turned into starlight and dissipated.
An earth-shattering sound suddenly rang out from the center of Guzheng. Countless air waves surged once again, turning into a strong hurricane that blew in all directions. Everywhere it went, even the air was distorted.
Right at this moment, a gigantic protective shield appeared out of thin air, blocking the hurricanes.
It turned out that Feng Yi had sensed something was wrong and activated the formation. Otherwise, many people wouldn't have been able to withstand this hurricane. However, he had only activated a portion of the formation's functions.
At this moment, a black pillar shot down from the sky. It was a few meters thick and connected to the barrier.
The thickness of the pillar was enough to make people despair. This was the power of the mountain that had been condensed for countless years. This was their final trump card. Once it was activated, the mountain would definitely fall.
Feng Yi didn't know if Lord Bai could take down the other party. After all, he was someone who had eaten black gold and was once at the level of Jin Xian. However, during one of his cultivation sessions, something went wrong and his cultivation dropped.
Even so, his battle power was still number one. If even he failed, then the remaining people wouldn't be able to take down the pillar of light.
Thinking of this, Feng Yi turned his gaze back to the battlefield. However, due to the huge cloud of dust, he couldn't clearly see what was happening inside.
However, Lord Bai could sense that his expression finally changed. This was because the mountain peak formed by his command medallion didn't crush his opponent into meat paste. When it was still a few dozen feet from the ground, it actually stopped its downward momentum and came to a stop.
Lord Bai could clearly sense that Gu Zheng was using his hands to support himself. Although most of his body had sunk into the ground and there was a very deep crack around him, he couldn't see the bottom.
However, he had still managed to block his attack and there wasn't the slightest injury on his body.
"Haa!" Gu Zheng suddenly roared and a burst of golden light appeared on his arms. He suddenly threw it up.
A deafening sound rang out from the ground. That incomparably huge mountain peak that seemed incomparably heavy was lifted up by Gu Zheng like a toy and thrown in Lord Bai's direction.
As for himself, he soared into the sky and charged at his opponent from behind. He wanted to take advantage of the fact that his opponent couldn't see him and launch a sneak attack.
Lord Bai coldly snorted. How could he not know where Feng Yi was? He had truly underestimated him. When the mountain peak approached Lord Bai, it quickly shrank and turned back into a black medallion.
Gu Zheng didn't care. Since he had been discovered, there was no harm. His figure flashed through the air, and when he reappeared, he was already behind Lord Bai. He pulled his arm back and released it, preparing to punch out.
Lord Bai didn't seem to notice, and he didn't make any movements.
Gu Zheng wasn't pleasantly surprised. His opponent wouldn't let him hit him so easily. However, since he had already charged out, he could only deal with the situation by remaining unchanged.
As expected, the moment his fist touched his opponent, his opponent's body scattered like water. At the same time, a silver ring jumped out and flew towards his neck.
Gu Zheng had long since been prepared for this. With a sudden drop, he directly dodged his opponent's attack. A cold light flashed through the air as Gu Zheng sent out a sharp Sword Qi towards the silver ring.
A strange scene appeared.
When the several dozen Sword Qis came into contact with the silver hoop, they were silently absorbed. Then, Gu Zheng suddenly felt as if he was locked down by something invisible.
The silver ring suddenly shook, and countless silver runes appeared on its surface. Among them, a glittering golden rune suddenly appeared and rushed towards Gu Zheng.
Gu Zheng instantly retreated. Although he didn't know what it was, he felt a sense of urgency. He knew that it couldn't be anything good.
However, after just two steps, the golden rune suddenly sped up and disappeared in front of Gu Zheng's eyes. The next moment, the golden rune appeared beside Gu Zheng. It was so fast that Gu Zheng couldn't react in time. It was imprinted on his neck.
Gu Zheng subconsciously touched his neck. He didn't find anything unusual, but there was a slight tremor coming from above.
He saw that the rotating runes on the outside of the silver ring suddenly stopped. They were deeply imprinted on the outside of the silver ring, forming a complicated pattern. Suddenly, the silver ring split into two and then disappeared from the sky.
The next moment, the two halves of the silver ring strangely appeared on both sides of Gu Zheng's neck.
With a "peng" sound, the two halves of the silver ring suddenly came together in the middle. It once again turned into a complete silver ring and locked him in place.
"Weng Weng" The silver hoop suddenly emitted a strange sound, and a silver circle suddenly gushed out from the top, layer by layer, covering the bottom.
Gu Zheng felt his whole body tighten. His whole body was bound.
This process happened in the blink of an eye. Gu Zheng who was unable to control his body fell from the sky.
A mysterious power came from the circle that imprisoned him. Not only did it obstruct the Fa Li in his body, it also wanted to drill into his body.
Lord Bai's figure suddenly appeared in the distance. He looked at Gu Zheng with a smile. Since the opponent was trapped by his magic treasure, then he would definitely win this round.
Until now, no one had been able to break free from the silver ring. This was personally given to him by Lord Black God. As long as the golden runes were able to track the opponent, then the opponent would definitely not be able to escape.
Feng Yi saw this scene and slightly sighed in relief. It was no wonder that when he thought of the opponent's strangeness, he didn't dare to completely relax. His whole eyes were fixed on Gu Zheng.
After Lord Bai saw the opponent lying on the ground, he first observed the world for a cup of tea. After confirming that the opponent was firmly locked, he walked in front of Feng Yi with a complacent face.
Feng Yi took out a black crystal and opened a passage for Lord Bai, allowing him to walk out from inside.
"Lord Bai, congratulations on successfully taking down the opponent." Feng Yi cupped his hands and congratulated. At this moment, Gu Zheng was still lying on the ground without moving. Except for the first few struggles, it seemed that he had already accepted his fate.
"Humph, it's just a little strange. Under the leadership of Lord Black God, he is definitely not my opponent," Lord Bai said in a friendly manner.
Because he had let Lian Rong release Black Lotus, causing such a commotion, he would definitely be criticized when he returned. If not for the Sect Master preparing to evacuate, he wouldn't dare to carry out such an action even if he was beaten to death.
One had to know that when Gu Zheng broke through the giant tower, he saw a trace of Jin Xian's aura on the opponent's body. At that time, the Sect Master wasn't here, so he could deal with everyone alone.
It was also at that time that Lord Bai had let Lian Rong release the signal. Later, while treating his injuries, he observed everything and found that the opponent only had a trace of Jin Xian's aura. Perhaps, the opponent had taken some special thing. At most, the quality of the opponent's cultivation had increased. His situation was somewhat similar to Lord Bai's, but there was also a slight difference.
"That's right. In that case, I'll arrange for everyone to disperse. Otherwise, some little rats will come out to cause trouble." When Feng Yi saw that everything had been settled, the big stone in his heart was finally lifted. Only then did a trace of a smile appear on his face.
No matter what the final result was, he still hoped that they could hold on for a little longer. As long as they defended well, they would naturally receive Lord Black Deity's verbal order to leave this place when the opponent retreated.
Just as Lord Bai was about to say something, he suddenly noticed that Feng Yi's expression had become a little strange. He seemed to be a little shocked, and there was also some disbelief in his eyes.
Lord Bai turned around and saw that the person lying on the ground was Gu Zheng. He didn't know when he should float up, but the silver rings on his body were beginning to flicker and become bigger little by little. It seemed that they were about to fall off the opponent's body.
What shocked him even more was that his control over the silver rings in his heart was fading little by little. It seemed that something was seizing control over him, and he was about to lose it.
"Activate the array and burn him to death." Lord Bai gritted his teeth and said. Who would have thought that things would develop like this when the conditions were right?
It wasn't that Lord Bai didn't kill him after trapping him. It was because of the characteristics of the silver rings. He had to wait for all the silver rings to disappear and completely fuse with the opponent's body before he could kill him.
Otherwise, the silver rings would have been a natural defense. At least, Lord Bai wouldn't have been able to shake it in the slightest.
Without Lord Bai's instructions, Feng Yi had already begun to do so. Under his signal, everyone began to pour in their immortal power. The previously somewhat transparent barrier instantly turned pitch black. Even they couldn't see the situation inside.
To be honest, even Lord Bai only knew of the existence of this absolute protective array. In reality, he had never used it even once.
Only a few people knew how to start it. Once they left, they wouldn't be able to activate the array. The key was the black crystal in Feng Yi's hand.
And just as Gu Zheng took off the silver rings, he discovered that there was a rolling black fog around him. Countless strange runes appeared on the edges of the fog. Some cryptic runes that were hard to understand flickered back and forth on the surface.
Gu Zheng already knew that the opponent had activated some kind of array. But at that time, he was sneakily pretending to be trapped. He simply didn't have the time to go out.
After Gu Zheng put away the silver rings, he couldn't help but rejoice.
The silver rings turned out to be an ancient magic treasure. He didn't know what it was made of. It was like a simplified version of some innate treasures. As long as the cultivation was under its judgment, one would definitely be trapped if one didn't have a strange method.
For example, the treasured gourd in Gu Zheng's hand now. Although the shortcoming was that it took a long time to cast, as long as it was successfully activated, those below the Zenith Heaven Realm would almost certainly die. There was no suspense. Even those at the initial stage of the Zenith Heaven Realm would die if they were careless.
Another example was the Judge Pen in Gu Zheng's hand. Although it was the same, it was much weaker than the treasured gourd. Moreover, one needed to know the opponent's name. It could be said that it was almost useless to deal with someone at the Sage-to-be level.
Of course, there were countless treasures of this kind in the Untainted Land. Most of them had the same effect. Generally, treasures that could threaten those at the initial stage of the Zenith Heaven Realm were all innate treasures.
He didn't expect to meet one here. In Gu Zheng's perception, Jin Xian wouldn't be able to escape if he wanted to.
Even Gu Zheng couldn't resist such a treasure with strange rules. In that case, when Gu Zheng was invaded by the strange energy, the Dharma power in his body became obscure and almost couldn't maintain his fighting strength.
However, Gu Zheng didn't expect that the Demon Grass in his body would be the one who made the contribution in the end. When the strange energy penetrated the surface of his body and invaded his body, the Demon Grass instantly became irritable, as if its territory had been provoked by someone else. Even if it was incomparably weak now, it still rushed forward without hesitation.
The result was beyond Gu Zheng's expectation. Even if the Demon Grass was weak now, it still defeated the strange energy. When the Demon Grass saw the Demon Grass, it seemed to have met its natural enemy. It almost didn't have any consciousness of resistance and was completely devoured by the Demon Grass.
How could the Demon Grass, which had obtained benefits, let go of such a prey so easily? It followed the source of the energy and rushed straight into the opponent's body. It actually devoured the imprint left by Lord Bai inside.
Gu Zheng didn't know the weakness of the silver ring. He was afraid that the other party would see through it, so he simply lay down and acted. He quietly pretended to be trapped so that the other party wouldn't attack him. In this state, he could be trampled on by anyone.
Gu Zheng even planned to lie down on the ground and wait for the other party to remove the formation. Unfortunately, the silver ring fell from his body and forcibly pulled his body up. His intention was directly destroyed.
When Gu Zheng was carefully observing these phenomena, Feng Yi outside took out the black crystal and waved it at a certain position on the mountain peak. Suddenly, nine black lights emerged from the mountain peak and shot directly on the shield from the sky.
Outside, a faint green light appeared on the surface of everyone. Everyone's Dharma power was injected into the shield through a specific position. Coupled with the constant replenishment from the mountain peak, an incomparably terrifying energy gathered here.
Feng Yi was looking inside through the black crystal. He was the only one who could see and command the situation inside.
"Lord Bai, leave the rest to me. You lead them out of here first. After I deal with them, I will go to the transmission array." Feng Yi said to Lord Bai. In fact, he was mainly worried about his trusted subordinates. Now, all the people who stayed here to help him were on his side.
"Hehe, then I will have to trouble you." Lord Bai thought for a moment and understood what he was thinking. However, when he thought about his own Dharma treasures, he stopped just as he was about to leave.
"I will stay here to guard the formation for you. Don't let some irrelevant people disturb you. Your subordinates should secretly go back first."
Feng Yi didn't answer him because he had already begun to command the situation inside. He wanted to kill Gu Zheng inside.
Gu Zheng looked around vigilantly. Suddenly, the ground under his feet trembled violently. A muffled sound like the beating of a drum came from the ground.
At a different place at the edge, a clearly brighter black fog appeared. Nine huge pitch-black circles suddenly appeared on the ground.
As soon as they appeared, nine black pillars shot out from them. They went straight to the top, as if nine huge stone pillars were supporting the top.
These stone pillars were three zhang wide. More than half of the pillars were covered with many protruding black spikes. Each of them had a red skull hanging high like a lantern.
Countless dense black Qi flowed along the black pillars and into the black skulls. It was as if they suddenly came to life. The empty eyes suddenly lit up. The two eyes spun around, emitting a blood-red light. It was like a searchlight, constantly shining back and forth.
Even if Gu Zheng tried his best to dodge, there were too many of them. Moreover, there was no pattern. In the blink of an eye, Gu Zheng was covered by two red lines. No matter how Gu Zheng dodged, he couldn't break free. It was as if they were nailed to his body.
More importantly, it was as if he had poked a hornet's nest. With the guidance of the red light from before, more and more red light continued to shine on his body.
All the skeletons turned their heads and looked at Gu Zheng. They followed Gu Zheng's movements and turned their heads. This made the audience feel a little scared. They didn't know what they were doing.
When the last red light shone on Gu Zheng, all the skeletons suddenly opened their mouths. At the same time, they spat out a large amount of blood-red light. They intertwined in midair, forming a dense giant net that almost covered the entire sky.
At every intersection point, drops of blood sea like liquid continuously dripped from the sky. In the blink of an eye, the sea of blood like a waterfall rushed down.
In a very short time, Gu Zheng's body was submerged in the sea of blood.
