Being in the blood sea, Gu Zheng felt an extremely heavy weight pressing down on his body. It was as if he was carrying an invisible mountain on his back. Every single one of his movements was filled with sluggishness, and he had to expend close to ten times his usual strength.
The omnipresent undercurrents were full of corrosiveness. They surged up from all directions, creating whirlpools of different sizes around him. They constantly tore at Gu Zheng's body.
Gu Zheng's body flashed with golden light. His feet firmly planted on the ground. His body only swayed slightly before he stabilized himself. Countless needle-sized blood needles were hidden in the Blood Sea. Thousands of blood needles pierced Gu Zheng's body.
However, under Gu Zheng's incomparably hard body, they could only stay on the surface of his body. They couldn't achieve any further results.
Of course, Feng Yi wasn't surprised. This was just the appetizer. The Blood Sea's corrosiveness gradually increased with time. In theory, as long as there was enough time, even an immortal at the level of Jin Xian would be corroded into a skeleton.
The show had just begun!
Feng Yi began to inject seals into the crystal from the outside. Under the guidance of the magic array, the entire sky began to rise with gusts of cold wind.
Above the black pillar inside, the thick black fog on the outer layer was about to condense into liquid. Suddenly, drops of black liquid began to appear on the tip of all the spikes. They dripped down from mid-air and turned into black fire lotuses on the way down.
The fire lotuses were graceful, swaying and spinning in the air. Lotus flowers constantly bloomed in the air, elegant and mysterious.
With a graceful figure, they flew down into the Blood Sea. When they came into contact with the Blood Sea, they were dyed with a layer of reddish shadow, as if they were part of the Blood Sea itself. They ignored the various traps below and gently floated towards Gu Zheng's figure.
The black lotuses hadn't completely approached Gu Zheng, but Gu Zheng could feel the heat waves emitted from them. Even the Blood Sea began to bubble. The steaming air waves completely covered Gu Zheng's vision. A terrifying feeling emerged from the bottom of his heart.
Before the black lotus could get close to Gu Zheng, thunder rumbled from the black clouds in the sky. A black lightning bolt as thick as a person's arm exploded in the air, instantly illuminating the somewhat dusky world. It passed through the barrier and directly struck the sea of blood.
The lightning bolt seemed to have opened the curtain. Following that, countless lightning bolts fell from the sky. In the entire world, nothing could be seen except for the lightning. Even the people from the Star Alliance who were monitoring outside were shocked by the sudden explosion of the power of heaven and earth.
However, under the instructions of the higher-ups, there wasn't much movement. Everyone had gathered, and even the Alliance Master was ready to set off at any time. They were waiting for the other party's core to be damaged so that they could break through the other party's array in one fell swoop.
Below the Blood Sea, when Gu Zheng was struck by the first bolt of lightning, his body suddenly became numb, and he was unable to move. After countless bolts of lightning struck him, his body could no longer react. It was as if his entire body had gone numb, and even his thinking had slowed down.
He could only watch helplessly as the black lotuses slowly floated over and attached themselves to his body. Then, they suddenly imprinted a burning black lotus on his skin, as if they had been there since birth.
Traces of pain came from the areas that were covered. Gu Zheng felt as if his body had become the other party's nourishment and was being transported to the other party bit by bit. The black lotuses continued to display the scenes of blooming, withering, and blooming.
Although they only absorbed a small amount of his energy each time, in the blink of an eye, dozens of times of blooming and withering had been repeated. What was even more frightening was that in just a short while, Gu Zheng's body was densely covered with black lotuses. A black lotus would enter every tiny gap and stack on top of each other. Countless lotuses were blooming and withering continuously on his body.
With so many lotuses absorbing his energy at the same time, Gu Zheng could clearly feel that his body had started to become somewhat weak. As more lotuses entered his body, the rate of absorption became greater and greater.
Originally, this large array had been prepared to work together with the array to deal with the people from the Star Alliance outside. Now, all the power was concentrated on Gu Zheng. Although it was a little overkill, the effect was very obvious. From the beginning, Gu Zheng was in a passive position and couldn't resist at all.
This meant that Gu Zheng was fighting against everyone on the other side alone and with the addition of an extremely powerful array. Even in Gu Zheng's current state, he couldn't fight against so many people by himself.
Just as Feng Yi was full of confidence and was about to launch the next attack, suddenly, an earth-shattering explosion sounded from afar. Even from so far away, they could feel the power of the explosion. The entire ground started to shake.
Feng Yi hurriedly turned around and saw that the tall and majestic city walls around the city were collapsing like fragile tofu. Thick dust also emerged from the city.
Feng Yi's heart sank. The other party's little rats had such a keen sense of smell. They had actually broken the restrictions on the city gate so quickly.
How could the Great Elder not see such a spectacular scene? He, who had been waiting for a long time, immediately ordered everyone to attack together.
Moreover, this time, the Alliance Master personally went into action to ensure everyone's safety and prevent the other party's sect master from launching a sneak attack.
For a time, colorful lights surged in the sky and attacked the barrier. Such a huge fluctuation of spiritual power caused the surrounding air to distort and blur. All the people and creatures within ten thousand miles fled without hesitation. The astral winds that were unintentionally released caused the sky to clear up.
Under such a dense attack, the previously tight barrier rippled and gradually expanded to cover the entire area. It was obvious that the barrier's defensive power had decreased by a lot.
At this time, the inside was still covered by the black fog. The Great Elder didn't know what was happening inside, but he still looked at the city gate.
This was because he had already received the report from Elder Mu that his son had also sneaked in. If it weren't for him, they might not have been able to break through the restrictions on the city gate so quickly. The Great Elder had mixed feelings about the fact that his son had played such an important role inside.
Under the city gate, three figures flew out. Although they had successfully destroyed the core of the city gate, Ye Sique would forever remain inside.
What they had to do now was hide and wait for the army to arrive to avenge their fallen comrades.
At this time, Gu Zheng was still trying to resist the black lotuses and blood fog in the sea of blood. If someone saw Gu Zheng's appearance, they would see that Gu Zheng's body was covered in blood crystal needles. As his body's strength decreased, these silver needles could finally drill into Gu Zheng's skin.
Gu Zheng had thought of almost everything, but he still couldn't do anything to the black lotuses.
At this moment, Black Lotus, who was originally only sticking to the surface of Gu Zheng's right wrist, finally threw away the trace of instinctive fear in its heart when it saw the increasing strength on its side. It quietly stuck to Gu Zheng's wrist.
Previously, these black lotuses seemed to be stuck to his wrist, but in fact, there was a faint gap. However, even Gu Zheng didn't notice this gap.
When the red line on the first black lotus was removed, Gu Zheng felt the immortal energy in his body being sucked into his right wrist. In the blink of an eye, half of his immortal energy disappeared. Before Gu Zheng could stop it, the ancient suction force suddenly disappeared as if it had never appeared.
Gu Zheng looked in shock. An unusually bright white flame appeared on his right wrist. Although it looked very faint and somewhat erratic, as if it would be extinguished in the next second.
However, the moment it appeared, Gu Zheng felt his body warm up. All the black lotuses turned into clouds of black fog and evaporated from the surface of his body.
"Cleansing Glass Fire!"
Gu Zheng shouted involuntarily. He didn't know, but with his current strength, even if it sucked him dry, he couldn't summon it.
But why did it suddenly jump out of his wrist? Gu Zheng looked over in confusion.
He discovered that the Cleansing Flame, which was as bright as a candle, had slowly floated up. The light was slowly spreading outwards. Whether it was the sea of blood or the black fog, they were all evaporated.
The evaporated blood fog was replenished by the Cleansing Flame and continued to expand outwards. It was like a small barrier was protecting Gu Zheng.
Gu Zheng understood what was going on.
Attracted by the evil aura, it finally attracted the Li Ring's attention. This was because the Li Ring itself contained a trace of the Cleansing Glass Fire's aura. It was the purest flame in the world. Of course, it wouldn't tolerate this evil covering its body.
It spontaneously condensed an afterimage and then absorbed the energy of the black lotuses and sea of blood for its own use.
However, Gu Zheng soon discovered that he couldn't control the Cleansing Flame at all. It was only counterattacking spontaneously. One had to know that the lightning in the sky was still striking him continuously, but the Cleansing Flame didn't care. This made Gu Zheng speechless.
Fortunately, the lightning itself wasn't known for its power. Otherwise, Gu Zheng's small body would have turned into ashes.
When Feng Yi turned around again, he was shocked to discover that Gu Zheng had used some kind of spell to escape. Furthermore, the situation was developing in his favor.
Now, Feng Yi was faced with two choices. One was to continue activating the array. Only the third level of the array had been activated. There were still different killing arrays left behind, and each array was stronger than the last.
However, no matter how strong Gu Zheng was, he would definitely die under the array. He was equivalent to fighting hundreds of people alone. Only death awaited him.
Of course, other than two single-person spells, the rest were all group arrays. This was also where their last confidence lay. Before he left, he had been prepared to hand it over to someone else. Although its power would be reduced, it would still be a heavy blow to the Star Alliance.
Unfortunately, under the leadership of the Black God, this stronghold would have to be abandoned. Lord Black God would lead them away from this godforsaken place and find a better place.
However, if he chose to kill Gu Zheng, Feng Yi was 100% sure that he wouldn't be able to escape. Perhaps this day next year would be his death anniversary.
As the array couldn't leave his control, he had already sensed that the array above him wouldn't be able to last for long. The Alliance Master had already made his move.
The second choice was to escape and return. This would be enough time for him to return and activate the teleportation array. In any case, he had already given up on this place. Furthermore, before he left, he could expand the range of the barrier so that they could last for a while longer.
This could also be considered as attracting the enemy's attention.
At this moment, Lord Bai had disappeared the moment the city wall collapsed. He didn't know where Lord Bai had gone. If Lord Bai forcefully activated the teleportation array, Feng Yi might not be able to make it in time no matter how much he hesitated.
In the blink of an eye, he had thought of all these ideas. Very quickly, he activated the power of the array and suddenly expanded it outwards. He placed everyone here inside the array. Then, he left a portion of the black crystal that he had already imitated for the person next to him.
He knew what his fate was and was willing to give up everything for Feng Yi.
Very quickly, several figures once again rushed into the sky and fled towards the mountain peak in the distance.
Very quickly, Gu Zheng, who was waiting below, noticed something different. The descending frequency of the lightning above had decreased a lot, and the Blood Sea was not as turbulent as it was before.
Gu Zheng immediately used the moment the opponent weakened. He hurriedly raised the ancient mirror above him, ignoring the fact that the ancient mirror couldn't bear the burden. He took the opportunity to quickly heal some of the remaining scars in his body.
At this moment, Gu Zheng's body was already in a mess. He felt that half of his body was about to be roasted. He couldn't even feel half of his shoulder.
Just as Feng Yi was about to reach the mountain peak, the world suddenly became silent. It was as if time had stopped in the entire world. But then, the sound of glass shattering resounded in the sky.
Everyone in the city had the same thought. The defensive array had already been broken. Countless residents of the city were hiding in their homes, trembling. Most of them were only at a certain level of cultivation. Facing the people of the Misty Island who had broken through from the dark clouds in the sky, any one of them could easily wipe them all out.
Countless shouts came from above. The Great Elder was the first to bear the brunt. He took the lead and broke through the black fog. After he advanced, others came out one after another.
But when they came in, they found that there was basically no one who could be considered a worthy opponent. As far as the eye could see, there were broken walls and ruins everywhere. There were also many injured civilians. It was as if a huge earthquake had happened.
What attracted them the most was a dark array in the distance. They didn't know what the enemy was up to. Could it be that they were going to make a last stand there?
It was very confusing. But without the Great Elder's orders, they could only stay in the air and guard the surroundings.
At this moment, three people flew up from below. It was Elder Mu and the other two.
"Elder Mu, it's been hard on you. Why are you the only ones left? Where are the others? " The Great Elder took the lead and asked. He also saw his son among them. He glared at him fiercely. How dare he sneak out? But now was not the time to teach him a lesson.
"As you can see, perhaps we are the only ones left." Elder Mu said with a sad expression. When he came out, he also saw the lightning that filled the sky. Although it was only a weakened lightning, he still felt that it was impossible for Gu Zheng to survive inside.
"Sigh." The Great Elder sighed and didn't say anything. Although he knew that there would be casualties, he didn't expect the losses to be so heavy. A total of four people had died inside. It was really too painful.
However, their sacrifice was definitely more beneficial than detrimental to the entire Star Alliance. It could be said that they had saved more than a dozen lives.
However, the Great Elder was still filled with guilt. This was because Gu Zheng and his sister had died here. In particular, Sun Cheng had repeatedly instructed him to take care of Gu Zheng and not let him do anything stupid.
Elder Mu quickly recounted what had happened during this period. In the end, he emphasized, "If it wasn't for that brother who created such conditions for us, we wouldn't have found such a good opportunity so quickly."
At this moment, Elder Mu really didn't know Gu Zheng's specific name.
"Great Elder, what should we do next?" At this moment, a person hurriedly came to the Great Elder's side and asked. Now, everyone had gathered together. Only a few vanguard teams had gone down to look for some hidden enemies. The Alliance Master had already gone to look for the Sect Master and didn't follow them alone.
Just as the Great Elder was about to answer, a strong aura suddenly erupted from the mountain peak in the distance. The Great Elder sensed a strong spatial fluctuation from the aura.
"They actually ran away," the Great Elder murmured. The Great Elder murmured. Then, he immediately said to the people beside him, "Everyone, advance towards the black barrier."
The teleportation array definitely couldn't send everyone away. It seemed that some of the higher-ups of the other party had already made preparations and escaped when they saw that the situation wasn't good.
Everyone began to move. Even Elder Mu and the others followed behind and rushed towards the black shield in a mighty manner.
On Lian Rong's side, her face was covered in cold sweat. The surrounding space appeared incomparably gloomy and cold. There were only a few people beside her, and no one cared. Instead, everyone had a look of rejoicing, including Feng Yi.
They were relieved that they had escaped from that place.
When Feng Yi was preparing to return to the cave, he happened to meet Lian Rong on the way, so he brought her back with him. The dozens of people from before were also waiting for them outside, but Lord Bai wasn't among them.
Lian Rong had long wanted to leave this place. She didn't talk nonsense with others and ignored their concern for her. She stood directly on the teleportation array and was still a little frightened.
Next to her hand was a raised stone platform with a black crystal ball on it. It seemed that the teleportation array was activated by paying attention to the energy.
On her body, there were fine and dense runes engraved on it. This was the clone of Lord Black God. How could others know such high-end technology? Countless crystals of various colors were collected and almost filled the small space below.
When Feng Yi and the others were still chatting with some people in front, he was still considering whether to wait for Lord Bai. Suddenly, a terrifying spiritual pressure swept over everyone.
A chill appeared in his heart. At the same time, the teleportation array was activated and emitted a faint light. This was a sign that the teleportation array was about to begin.
Feng Yi rushed in the direction of the teleportation array without saying anything. At the same time, a few people with quick reactions also made the same choice. When they had just entered the range of the teleportation array, an unfamiliar figure suddenly appeared in the cave.
A dazzling cold light attacked Feng Yi in an attempt to interrupt the operation of the teleportation array. However, before it could attack, a vast array erupted from the teleportation array, setting off a dazzling light. The other people who were caught off guard were affected and couldn't stand steadily. They fell to the ground one after another.
When the light dissipated, there was no one on the teleportation array. The cold light arrived late and shattered the dim crystal on the array.
The rest of the people were dumbfounded. This time, the teleportation array was completely useless. However, under the pressure of that person, no one dared to move.
The Master of the Star Alliance had arrived!
