However, no matter how strong the puppet was, it was still no match for Gu Zheng. After all, although Gu Zheng's cultivation had decreased, the strength of his physical body had not.
Gu Zheng exerted some force in his hand, and the puppet in front of him was lifted into the air.
"Hula!"
Gu Zheng grabbed the spearhead and swung it in a circle, directly knocking away a few puppets that were trying to get close to him. As for the puppet with the spear, it was completely fine.
Gu Zheng saw that this method was not bad. Those puppets that were knocked over had a dent where they had been hit. They wanted to continue using the spear as a weapon, but just as they were about to raise it, the spear in their hands suddenly turned into a cloud of red mist and dissipated.
That puppet was directly sent flying by the force, and finally smashed into the puppet army not far away. Dozens of puppets were smashed to the ground, leaving a small gap in the middle, but it was filled in the blink of an eye.
However, that puppet turned over again, and its body was unscathed. The weapon in its hand automatically appeared again, and it continued to rush towards Gu Zheng.
Gu Zheng dodged the puppet in front of him, clenched his five fingers into a fist, and ruthlessly punched at the puppet's chest.
That puppet was directly sent flying in the air, and its entire body was sent flying backwards. It once again crashed into the crowd, and a straight line was directly smashed out. The puppets on both sides were also affected.
However, Gu Zheng saw with his own eyes that the other party flipped over and stood up again. Then, he charged at Gu Zheng once more. The part of his chest that had caved in was slowly recovering.
The puppet's body was so strong. One must know that Gu Zheng did not show any mercy just now. He knew that the puppet's strength was infinite. He originally wanted to smash the puppet into pieces, but the result was only so-so. It was really beyond his expectations.
Gu Zheng casually took out a long sword, and his body flipped again, dodging a few puppets beside him, and looked at the puppet's arm.
"Ding!"
The sound of metal clashing rang out. Gu Zheng's attack was only able to cut half of the puppet's arm and was stuck in the middle.
"Open!"
Gu Zheng calmed himself down. A layer of golden light flashed on his sword, and the puppet's arm fell off. Then, with a twist of his wrist, Gu Zheng cut off the puppet's neck. Only then did the puppet stiffen on the spot. Its entire body scattered into countless fist-sized red crystals, and it stopped moving.
Although he had successfully dealt with one of them, Gu Zheng was not happy at all. The other party's body was simply too tough. Only by channeling a large amount of immortal energy into it would he be able to cut off the other party's body. However, doing so consumed too much magic power.
Especially now that he was surrounded by so many fearless puppets. If this continued, he would be exhausted to death.
Perhaps this was the true goal of these puppets.
It was incomparably hard and had boundless strength. What a headache.
At this moment, there was already a dense circle of puppets surrounding him.
Gu Zheng frowned and was about to leave. He would not let all of them surround him here.
However, before he could move, beams of red light suddenly shot out from each of their faceless faces, piercing into the sky. They gathered at the highest point of their heads, and a huge blood-red ball of light appeared in the sky.
"Weng!"
A huge blood-red beam of light suddenly drilled out of the red clouds, and directly shot into the blood-red ball of light. Waves of mysterious fluctuations came from above.
With a flash of blood-red light, it emitted boundless blood-red light. Countless densely packed blood-red lines appeared on its body and fell diagonally into the distance. Like an overturned bowl, they directly covered this area.
All of this happened in the blink of an eye. Before Gu Zheng could even think of playing around, he was already trapped in this small square. Above him was a layer of flickering blood-red light screen.
A very faint blood mist appeared in the air, and the blood puppets seemed to have been injected with chicken blood. Their speed increased by a notch.
However, Gu Zheng saw that the range of the light curtain was extremely wide. They were not even one-tenth of the space they were in. There was enough space for him to circle around. He had to think of a way to deal with these puppets first.
However, just as Gu Zheng's figure rushed out and was less than ten meters away from the ground, he felt his body suddenly sink. He could no longer go up. The blood-red ball condensed into a beam of blood-red light, and in an instant, it struck in front of him.
Its power was not very great, but its speed was so fast that even Gu Zheng could not react in time. He was instantly thrown to the ground.
After the blood puppets saw this, they raised their weapons and directly stabbed at Gu Zheng on the ground. The ones behind even leapt high into the air, even higher than Gu Zheng. However, they were not obstructed in the slightest. They descended from the sky and slashed at Gu Zheng.
Gu Zheng, who had just been lying on the ground, immediately saw the figures of the puppets and their weapons shining with blood-red light.
Gu Zheng did not immediately get up. His body, which was lying horizontally, moved quickly. Like a crab, he slipped through the gaps left by the puppets and escaped from this area.
He turned around and appeared in another place with a slight gap.
However, just as Gu Zheng stood up, the surrounding puppets once again swarmed towards him like a tide.
Gu Zheng took a deep breath. It was just these puppets. If he were to deal with ordinary immortals, he would not be able to do anything. Even if he could eliminate all of these puppets, he would lose about one-tenth of his magic power, and his combat strength would be greatly reduced.
One had to know that this was just an appetizer. However, against him, it was far from enough!
A trace of a black dot appeared on his fist. He bent over and punched the head of a puppet holding two swords.
"Peng!" A light sound rang out.
The head, which was originally incomparably sturdy, instantly exploded like a rubber ball. The weapon in its hand subconsciously swayed back and forth a few times. The blood-red light on its body dimmed at an extremely fast speed. Moreover, the cracks on its body kept disappearing. In the blink of an eye, it turned into a pile of rocks and fell to the ground.
Gu Zheng's other hand was not idle. Taking advantage of the fact that the puppet was raising its hammer to attack, Gu Zheng instantly punched the puppet's chest again.
The puppet was stunned. Its entire body rose with the wind again. However, this time, its entire chest was smashed into a huge hole. Before it could land, its body had already turned into a pile of rocks and fell from the sky.
"Peng, peng, peng!"
Each of Gu Zheng's punches consumed very little power, because his cultivation base was forced to drop. However, he was still able to use his fiendish power. Each of his punches was comparable to an early stage Gold Immortal's attack.
Although these puppets had been strengthened twice, in the face of Gu Zheng's attacks, they were still brittle at the first touch.
Gu Zheng's body moved nimbly between the puppets. Both of his fists punched out. As long as he hit the puppet's chest or head, he did not even look and immediately moved to another location.
Loud bangs accompanied Gu Zheng's punches. Bursts of astral wind whistled through the air.
As the shadows of the punches disappeared, there would always be a puppet that turned into a pile of rocks that glowed with a dim red light and disappeared.
For a moment, the puppets around Gu Zheng flew into the sky. The puppets outside continued to charge forward fearlessly.
.....
At this moment, outside, Ye Xun looked at the sturdy shield in front of him and could not help but have a headache.
No matter how much he thought about it, he did not expect the other party to have such an immortal item. The attacking soldiers on his side were panting. However, the shield was still very sturdy. There were no signs of it breaking.
"Lord Ye, what should we do? The soldiers are very tired, "at this moment, an official behind him said worriedly.
At this moment, the attacks of the bodyguards were already weak. They were not convinced of their earlier bravery. They could only reach out their hands in vain and attack mechanically.
"How's the situation outside? Is there any latest news from the people in the city? " Ye Xun asked in an annoyed manner. The smug smile on his face had long disappeared. Since then, the frown on his face had not disappeared.
"Lord Ye, King Wei's army is still in a stalemate with us. There hasn't been any news from the city. However, Lord Ye, your younger brother, Ye Jian, is personally leading the troops. There shouldn't be any problems," at this moment, another person stepped forward and said after hearing Ye Xun's question.
"What a headache. There's no news at all. You guys stay here and look after them. Let the soldiers rest for a while. I'll go to the front and take a look!" Ye Xun looked at everything before him. At this moment, the four people in the middle were still there. Just like before, the red light on their bodies kept flashing and huge red pillars were shooting down.
"If there's any movement, inform me immediately," at the end, Ye Xun gave one last order and left with a few bodyguards.
"Yes!"
After Ye Xun left, the two of them communicated with each other. Then, they let the soldiers rest. After all, the other party was just a tough turtle shell. Even if they were inside, they couldn't do anything.
As long as the four lords annihilated the immortals invited by the other party, their doomsday would arrive. For now, they would just let them linger on for a while.
At the same time, the group of four in the middle slowly recovered. Previously, in order to construct that stable world, they had spent too much effort. Now, they could finally take some time out.
Although they said they were constructing, it was actually just chanting the incantation that the Second Elder specially taught them. Then, they just had to inject their magical energy into it. As for what it looked like inside, it was all the space that the Second Elder had opened up long ago.
"The construction is finally completed!" The person dressed like a maid said with a sigh of relief as she cast the last seal in her hand.
Although she was speaking, her body still didn't move. With the existence of the light screen, not only was it protecting them, it was also isolating them from the outside world. It allowed the outside world to see that they were still in their initial state, forming a small circle of their own.
"Say, the thing that the Second Elder left for us to deal with the people inside. Who do you think will be able to survive inside?" the official asked doubtfully.
His status was even lower, so he knew very little.
"Of course, the things that the Second Elder considers are not things that you and I can understand. You just need to know how to use the thing in your hand. It's something that the Second Elder worked hard to create."
"Yes, the Second Elder is far-sighted. It's far beyond what we can imagine. This time, the other party actually invited an almighty of the Jin Xian level. If it wasn't for the Second Elder's array formation, we wouldn't have survived. The thing that he gave me was actually to guard against this," the fifth brother added.
"Yes, let's see what's going on inside." The third sister took out a saucer-like disc from her bosom and gently tossed it upwards. The disc slowly emitted a pure white light and floated towards the center.
The red light pillar didn't block its body, as if it didn't exist, and continued to fall into the abyss below.
However, the white jade-like disc was slowly dyed red, and its size became bigger and bigger as it slowly fell down.
When it completely fell to the ground, the size of the disc was just enough to cover the pitch-black abyss below. Then, a large number of ripples began to flash on the disc, like the surface of a lake with some wind and waves, and within it, a blurry image began to appear.
When the ripples became smaller and smaller, the image on the disc became clearer and clearer. At a glance, they could see that the man inside was the man they had pulled in before, and he was now fighting against the puppet army inside.
They were looking down from high up in the sky, but their expressions immediately turned ugly.
With a thought from the third sister, their line of sight immediately zoomed in, and they could clearly see the man, surrounded by countless blood red puppets, and were constantly launching fierce attacks towards him.
His body didn't move much, and he casually walked among the puppets, but around him, there were shadows of fists bombarding his surroundings.
Every time he punched out, a puppet would either shatter on the spot or shatter in the air. It was as if these extremely sturdy puppets had become fragile porcelain dolls in front of him. They would shatter at the slightest touch.
Not to mention getting close to him and injuring him, the ground was littered with the remains of the puppets, and the other party was completely unharmed. In such a short period of time, more than half of the thousand puppets had been destroyed, and it wouldn't be long before all of them were destroyed.
Especially Three Realms and Old Fifth, their expressions turned even uglier than the other two. They knew how terrifying it was inside, and when this place was built, the Second Elder had specially brought them here to demonstrate the many functions of this place, and also to familiarize them with it so that they could control it better.
So it wasn't that Young Master Xi didn't want to stay here, but at that time, he had matters to attend to outside, and the Second Elder had only brought the two of them in, which was also the reason why he left.
And the Second Elder had said confidently, that if Jin Xian's cultivation was not weakened, and was pulled in, he would not be able to break through the restrictions here, and would be killed by the endless schemes inside.
One must know, there were not only puppets without intelligence, and even if there was only a puppet army, they would not be able to break through. Later on, the Second Elder had told them the method behind, and even gave them some supplementary gadgets, and only then did they feel at ease!
"Xiao Shui, immediately control the puppets, and revive, continue to entangle him, no matter what, continue to exhaust his strength, and he must possess him again." Three Realms saw this scene and immediately ordered.
"Feng Yun, you begin to prepare to enter, and when the time is right, attack him together with Xiao Shui!"
"No problem, Third Sister!" That maid immediately replied, she knew that the opponent was indeed worthy of being Jin Xian's cultivation, this little bit of trouble to him, even if he was weakened to the same level as them, these puppets were nothing to him.
But they had to act quickly, although they did not know how powerful a Golden Core stage cultivator was, but they knew that the Second Elder was already at the peak of perfection, and of course, they understood that these puppets would not be able to stop the opponent, and were only used to exhaust him.
One must know, even if they were unable to eliminate the opponent, it was fine, as long as they were trapped here, and when the Ye Family ascended to the throne, they would not be able to change the outcome. At that time, they could just hide in the crowd, and change their aura, ensuring that the opponent would not be able to find them, not to mention revenge.
She took out a red ball, and bit her finger, and after forcing out a drop of blood, she connected it to the ball.
She then threw it into the red light pillar, and in an instant, it flashed twice, and disappeared in front of everyone's eyes.
As for Xiao Shui, he had already closed his eyes, and next, he would divide a part of his divine sense to control the blood-red puppets below.
Inside, Gu Zheng saw that there were more than a dozen puppets that were sent flying, and just as he was about to raise his fist, he was shocked to find that because he had attacked too quickly, and there were fewer puppets on the other side, there was currently an empty space around him.
But even so, those puppets still pounced on Gu Zheng, nimbly crossing the piles of stones of different heights on the ground, and some even stepped on them, not caring at all that they were their teammates before.
Gu Zheng saw with his own eyes that a few of the smaller fragments were crushed by them.
Gu Zheng sneered, this exercise could not even be considered a warm-up, and directly rushed over. First, his figure swayed, avoiding the pincer attack of the puppets in front, and came to the middle of them, and took the initiative to let them surround him. He gently raised his arms, and with a blur, seven or eight fist shadows instantly appeared in the air, and each punch accurately hit the opponent's head.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
The surrounding seven or eight puppets did not even get close to Gu Zheng's body before their heads exploded, and in the next second, their bodies were shattered into a pile of rubble just like the previous puppets.
Gu Zheng looked at the sparse puppets in front of him. At this time, they were not in large groups, and there were only two or three of them. And up until now, Gu Zheng had not even used up that little bit of baleful aura.
After this period of trembling, there were less than sixty puppets left. At most, it would take half an incense stick's worth of time to completely destroy these puppets.
Gu Zheng raised his head and looked at the red light in the sky, still emitting a dazzling light. Gu Zheng was not interested in probing the defense of the red light curtain, and slowly moved his body, preparing to gather them and defeat them in one fell swoop.
And in his heart, he was thinking of finding a flaw to directly break through this light curtain.
Gu Zheng did not notice that the dim stones under his feet were slowly beginning to light up again.
At the same time, the originally dazzling red light became even more dazzling, but it was hidden and was not noticed by Gu Zheng.
This was because he was now looking at the clouds in the sky through the red light curtain, because just a moment ago, he did not know if it was an illusion, but a trace of familiar aura came from above, and he could not help but observe.
Suddenly, just as Gu Zhengzhen was about to scatter the dozen or so puppets that he had just gathered, the red rocks below flashed with a faint red light. The rocks suddenly emitted a red mist and connected together at an extremely fast speed.
The red mist in the middle of the links flashed and directly merged into a new arm, and then a new arm appeared.
And at the same time, a few puppets directly appeared on the side, and at the same time Gu Zheng stepped next to them, they all grabbed at Gu Zheng's feet.
At the same time, the dozen or so puppets suddenly accelerated and rushed toward Gu Zheng.
