At the entrance of the cave, a group of people rushed out. Everyone had a frightened look on their faces, as if there was some terrifying creature behind them. They were running out crazily.
Terrified shouts came from their mouths.
"Black Realm!"
Other than Gu Zheng and Shuang 'er who were stunned, everyone else's expression changed when they heard this. Just as they came out, a thick black fog rushed out from the mountain.
Without saying anything else, Young Master Qi sprayed out a stream of blood flames from his mouth. He abandoned the small cauldron and fled into the distance in a flash. However, something strange happened. Everyone was sent flying high up into the sky. A strange wave of energy appeared in the sky and everyone seemed to have lost their magic powers. They fell down like dumplings.
Even Gu Zheng felt an irregular fluctuation appear in his body. His aura was rapidly falling.
The black fog arrived in front of Gu Zheng in a few breaths of time. The fake barrier only flashed for a moment before it silently turned into specks of starlight and dissipated.
Gu Zheng, who had just punched the barrier, revealed a look of shock on his face.
Gu Zheng had already seen what happened to the others. After everyone was sucked into the black fog, they suddenly disappeared.
However, before he could say anything to Shuang 'er, who was alone in front of him, his entire body was submerged in the black fog. His magic power immediately stagnated and even the last bit disappeared without a trace.
His entire body seemed to have lost all feeling. His vision turned black and his ears seemed to be whispering. His entire mind was muddled. When he woke up, he found that his entire body was in the air and falling down at an extremely fast speed.
Through the gloomy world, there was a shimmering golden barrier in front of him. It was tightly attached to Shuang 'er's body. Inside it was Shuang' er, who did not know what had happened. Her eyes were filled with confusion.
Gu Zheng could not see how high it was below, but he knew that the current situation was very bad. If he did not think of a way, he might fall to his death, unless there was an ocean below.
He didn't place his hopes elsewhere. Although he didn't understand why this sphere could still exist here, and although the light on it was rapidly fading away, Gu Zheng didn't hold back and grabbed Shuang 'er's hand. He felt that since Shuang' er could have a layer of protection here, then at least there were other methods.
Of course, Gu Zheng was not asking Shuang 'er to help him. Even if he did not have any magic power, he was still like a mortal. He could not fall to his death at such a high altitude. He was not an ordinary human. He was just afraid that Shuang' er would be hurt.
Shuang 'er, who didn't know what was going on, saw Gu Zheng holding her hands. Even though there was a layer of barrier between them and they didn't touch directly, her face immediately turned red. She subconsciously opened up her own barrier, forming a small barrier that covered the two of them.
"What's this?" Gu Zheng did not know whether to laugh or cry. Seeing that the color of the barrier outside was fading at an even faster speed, Shuang 'er's face was also rapidly turning pale. He knew that the other party's consumption was even faster.
The two of them were still descending at an extremely fast speed. However, Gu Zheng could already see the ground below, but the barrier outside suddenly disappeared. Gu Zheng looked at Shuang 'er's panicked face. It seemed that she also realized that something was wrong. She was so scared that she closed her eyes.
He could only carry Shuang 'er, who was at a loss of what to do, so that he was below and Shuang' er was above. The two of them fell at an extremely fast speed.
"Bang!"
There was a loud noise from below, as well as a few small tremors, and a small crater appeared below.
Shuang 'er thought that she was going to fall to her death. She only felt dizzy, and then fell on something very soft. The vibrations she received were almost negligible. She opened her eyes in surprise, only to find that she was climbing on Gu Zheng's body. She was so moved that her eyes became hazy with tears.
It turned out that when Gu Zheng was falling, he used his body as a meat cushion, so that she did not receive such a big injury.
"Still not getting up, little sniveling nose, how old are you?" Gu Zheng's teasing voice sounded from the side. "Do you want to crush me to death?"
"I'm sorry, Young Master Gu." Hearing this, Shuang 'er apologized while trying to get up. However, she was frightened. Her limbs were somewhat soft, and she was unable to get up from Gu Zheng's body.
Seeing Shuang 'er's clumsy and anxious appearance, Gu Zheng sighed. He suddenly straightened his body, and with a scream, Gu Zheng forcibly stood up with Shuang' er.
Looking at Shuang 'er's closed eyes, he really did not know how she had lived these years. His strength had already reached the Celestial Immortal Realm, but she was still as timid as before, as if he was still an ordinary person.
"Alright, it's okay, open your eyes." Gu Zheng's words made Shuang 'er's face turn red. A trace of blood appeared on her pale face, and she quickly apologized again.
"I'm sorry, Young Master Gu." That timid expression made Gu Zheng think of the first time he saw her. He brought the timid Shuang 'er back to Xue' er's medical center.
He said to her gently, "It's okay, we are family."
This familiar feeling made Shuang 'er feel as if she was back in the medical center. At that time, she was very careful in everything she did. In the end, she still accidentally broke something.
"Alright, it's okay, don't cry." Gu Zheng looked at the opposite side with tears in his eyes and said quickly. This seemed to open a valve in Shuang 'er's heart.
Shuang 'er directly rushed over and hugged Gu Zheng, crying non-stop. It was as if she wanted to vent all the grievances in her heart. After a long while, Shuang' er embarrassedly stopped crying. She stood to the side and turned her back.
At this moment, they were in a desolate land. The surrounding sky was pitch black, but it was emitting a strange green light, making the ground look less dark.
What made Gu Zheng very puzzled was that all the Immortal Qi in his body was gone. There was no magic power at all. It was empty. This made Gu Zheng feel very uncomfortable.
However, with the strength of his body, he felt that he had the strength of a Tier 5 cultivator. At least he could protect himself.
Just now, he heard something fall in front of him. After looking around carefully, he found that it was the small cauldron beside him.
Only now did Gu Zheng realize that his arrival here was probably related to the black fog that came out from the bottom of the mountain. However, what kind of place was this? Why was it so strange? Even a Golden Immortal like him could not leave behind a trace of his magic power. He could not take out the things he had stored.
Gu Zheng subconsciously scanned the surroundings with his divine sense. He was shocked to find that his divine sense could not even leave his body. This made Gu Zheng take a deep breath. This place was really strange.
He bent down and took out the small cauldron. The flame in the middle of the cauldron was extinguished as expected. This thing now looked unremarkable. However, Gu Zheng still took it back and hung it on his waist.
Even if it was a fake, its power was still very good. How could he throw it away recklessly.
"By the way, Xiang Xiang, how can you release magic power here?" Gu Zheng thought of this problem at this time and quickly asked.
"I don't know. It is very likely to be related to the thing I ate before." Shuang 'er turned around. Her face had been cleaned up by her. Only her eyes were slightly red.
Shuang 'er thought for a moment and understood Gu Zheng's meaning. A little flame suddenly appeared in her hand. However, it was extinguished in less than a breath.
"Now my body is empty. Moreover, it is recovering very slowly. It took me a long time to release such a small flame." Shuang 'er observed the situation in her body and said truthfully.
"What happened to you before? You actually have such cultivation." Gu Zheng was also curious. He looked around and didn't know where he was, so he randomly chose a direction and walked with Shuang 'er while chatting.
"Me? Let me think for a bit." Shuang 'Er organized her thoughts and slowly explained to Gu Zheng.
At that time, after Gu Zheng and the others left, Shuang 'er's life suddenly became very peaceful. Just like Xue' er in the past, after waking up and eating, she opened the shop and helped those people to treat their illnesses.
Although there was a change of people, it didn't affect the surroundings at all. Moreover, with the help of the first prince, there was no lack of all kinds of common herbs.
In addition, with her cultivation of the second step and the martial arts taught by Gu Zheng, at least some hooligans didn't dare to cause trouble. Therefore, the first year was very peaceful.
She also wanted to go to Feng City to find Gu Zheng and the others. However, thinking that she had never been far away, she gave up in the end.
One day, after a year, Shuang 'er was treating a very strange patient. She found that there was a kind of herb that was not sold in the world, but Xue' er told her where to find it.
So, she learned from Xue 'er and went up the mountain alone to find the herb. She didn't expect that after picking what she needed in the mountains, she would find a fruit emitting a sweet fragrance. At that time, Shuang' er didn't know what was going on and ate it in a daze.
As a result, Shuang 'er directly fainted. When she woke up, she found that she was saved by a man. It was Young Master Qi.
Then, Young Master Qi gave her a new cultivation method and some elixirs to help her quickly improve her cultivation.
Shuang 'er was very moved and even secretly gave her heart to him. But by chance, she found out Young Master Qi's true colors.
He wanted to wait until her cultivation reached a certain level and then use her as a cauldron. The reason was that the thing Shuang 'er ate was very useful to him. However, most of the medicinal power was still in Shuang' er's body. Once it was completely absorbed, Shuang 'er would die.
This made Shuang 'er feel quite terrified, but this person was incredibly powerful. Even though she didn't know how powerful the bandit was, her instincts told her that she was like an ant in front of him.
Moreover, on the surface, he seemed to adore her and continued to deceive her. She pretended to want to go back, but he refused no matter what.
As such, on the surface, Shuang 'er could only compromise because this person was constantly watching her. Although she had cultivation, she did not have any battle strength at all. She could not even defeat a single guard of his, let alone escape.
This person only gave her flashy but useless magic skills, which were not very powerful at all. She did not have a chance at all until she met Gu Zheng.
In the end, Shuang 'er looked at Gu Zheng in awe and admiration. His cultivation was so high that he was on par with Young Master Qi. In the past, he had even asked big brother Zhao Man to deal with Devils.
Speaking to there, Shuang 'er asked curiously, "That's right, where are big sister Xue' er and big brother Zhao Man? How are they?"
Just as Gu Zheng was about to say something, a few howls sounded out from the distance.
Unknowingly, they had already walked to the edge of a forest. The trees here all had gray leaves and gray branches. Everything was gray, which made people feel uncomfortable.
Rustling sounds came from the opposite side, and there was also the sound of a heavy object running back and forth. They could clearly feel the ground under them trembling slightly.
"Help!"
The cry for help came from the front, and they could hear the despair in this person's heart.
"Young Master Gu." Shuang 'er looked at Gu Zheng and saw him slowly shaking his head. Then, he pulled her to hide behind an uncle.
At this time, Gu Zheng was not familiar with this place, but before, someone had vaguely said that this was the Black Realm. Looking at their terrifying faces, it was definitely not a safe place. Moreover, he had no magic power, so it was better to be safe first. He did not know what was going on, so it was not good to rashly go up.
Just as they hid in the tree, they found that three people had already run out of the forest.
Two men and a woman, no matter what, ran forward desperately. Although Gu Zheng could not perceive the cultivation of the other party, he knew that they were the same as him. They had no magic power, and they were even worse than him. At least, their running speed was a bit faster than a normal person.
"Those three people are human beings who stayed outside. Should we save them?" Shuang 'er recognized their identity and asked Gu Zheng next to her.
It seemed that the people who were swallowed by the black fog had all come here. Gu Zheng thoughtfully thought, but before Gu Zheng could answer, a monster that was ten feet long and three feet tall rushed out from behind them.
It had a short horn on its head, and its body was covered with a thick layer of skin. Its short and stout limbs were very similar to the rhinoceros in Gu Zheng's impression, but it was much bigger.
At this time, it was chasing the three people in front of it with its head down.
"Wait first, we have to protect ourselves. We are not familiar with this place." Gu Zheng said carefully. Even if the three people died in front of him, they would not make a move, because Shuang 'er could be said to have no fighting power at this time. He had to protect her well.
At this time, without the cover of the forest, the rhinoceros' speed gradually increased, and soon it would catch up with the last man in front.
"Don't leave me." The last man looked back and saw that the rhinoceros was behind him. When he heard the heavy breathing of the rhinoceros, he was scared out of his wits and hurriedly asked for help.
Hearing him say this, the two of them also looked back, but immediately sped up a lot. None of them had the ability to stop the wild rhinoceros, but the woman said cleverly, "Go to the forest.
We can't escape at all if we run like this. It's too fast. "
After the last man heard this, he immediately made a 90-degree sharp turn, bypassing the rhinoceros's attack. The two of them also made a turn. After running a few steps, they found that the huge rhinoceros was trying to stop with difficulty.
This discovery made them wild with joy. Although it had rough skin and thick flesh, its body was very clumsy.
By the time the rhinoceros stopped, the three of them had already reached the edge of the forest. The woman in the middle said, "Let's not run around casually. Don't get lost in the forest, or else we will be in trouble."
"Yes, Han Xiu, you have thought it through. We will wait here for it to rush over, and then wait for it to rush in, and then we will shake it off from the other direction." The last man made a suggestion. When the two of them heard it, they felt that it was a very good idea.
As for fighting with the rhinoceros, they didn't even want to think about it. Not to mention that they now had a body that was a little stronger than a mortal, they couldn't take out any magic treasures, and even threw away the weapons they carried with them. Unless they could refine the weapons in their hearts, they couldn't take them out.
The previous companion's fate was a bloody lesson. Now, he had been turned into a pile of meat paste.
Gu Zheng was speechless as he looked at the few people below him. Coincidentally, the other party was right below him. However, they had hidden themselves very well. In this large patch of gray leaves, although they had swept a glance, they had not discovered the two of them.
The rhinoceros on the other side had already turned around. Its scarlet eyes were staring, its thick nostrils were panting heavily. Looking at them, its body had already begun to slowly move.
The three people below suddenly became nervous, and Gu Zheng also began to become nervous. If they really followed the direction of the rhinoceros, then the tree under him was definitely the path that the rhinoceros had to pass through. He had really suffered an unexpected disaster.
Gu Zheng watched as the rhinoceros began to move. It took heavy steps, and each step caused the ground to tremble. It was clear that it was about to charge. Gu Zheng wondered if he should test the other party's strength, or if he should expose himself and take Shuang 'Er with him to escape.
All of a sudden, a flurry of footsteps came from the forest to his side. More than a dozen figures rushed out from the dense forest. Each of them had a wooden spear in their hands. The ends of the stone spears were made of sharpened bones. Even in this gloomy environment, one could still see the sharpness of the spears.
Most of them were bare-chested. They only had a simple layer of worn-out cloth around their waists to cover it. Their bodies were gray from head to toe, and their hair was messy. They looked like mountain barbarians.
The appearance of these people made the rhinoceros on the other side stunned. Its footsteps clearly began to try to stop, but its clumsy body was not so easy to control.
With such a delay, the dozen figures had already divided into five rows. They raised the spears in their hands, took a step forward, and suddenly threw them out.
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh"
Everyone quickly ran to the side after throwing, making enough space for the people behind to throw with all their might. In just two short breaths, all the spears in their hands had been thrown out.
More than a dozen weak sounds broke through the air, forming a small rain of arrows in the sky. They pulled out the spears at their waists and threw them out again in the same way.
Gu Zheng discovered that each of the other party carried at least three spears with them, tied to their backs. Moreover, there were a few sharp bone axes at their waists.
Their techniques were especially accurate. Half of the first rain of arrows pierced the rhinoceros' body, causing it to howl in pain. Following that, the remaining two rain of arrows caused its body to be full of spears. There was even a long spear that pierced its eyes, causing it the greatest injury.
The creature that was as big as a rhinoceros wanted to escape with its body full of spears. After taking a few steps, its huge body fell heavily on the ground, constantly gasping for breath.
Those people howled excitedly. Most of them surrounded it and went to collect their spoils of war.
A few people who seemed to be the leaders walked towards the three of them.
