Just as Gu Zheng was still marveling at the toughness of the ice wall, a sudden change occurred!
The white light that had covered the ice wall rapidly gathered together and turned into a beam of white light that shot towards Gu Zheng.
Gu Zheng had only just released a ball of flame from his body and was about to envelop his entire body when the white light turned into a ball of white Qi that enveloped Gu Zheng.
In an instant, when the white light dissipated, a lifelike ice sculpture appeared in front of everyone. Even the flames on Gu Zheng's body were frozen on Gu Zheng's body, giving off a strange sense of beauty.
"Gu Zheng!"
Bo Xu and the others were shocked and wanted to rush over, but after taking a few steps, they hit their heads on the fiery red shield outside.
However, before they could destroy the shield in front of them, they saw Gu Zheng's body flash with golden light again. With an explosive sound, countless golden lights pierced out from the white ice sculpture that trapped Gu Zheng.
"Ka ka!"
Cracks sounded outside Gu Zheng's body, and then the entire ice layer collapsed, freeing Gu Zheng instantly.
"Don't move. I didn't expect the other party to have a way to use the water of the blue lake. This is really beyond my expectations. These things won't harm me, but they will hurt you. Protect yourselves well and don't waste your energy here." Gu Zheng looked at them and calmed them down.
They didn't know how powerful the water of the blue lake was. The moment Gu Zheng was frozen, even Gu Zheng's spiritual power was delayed for a moment. At that moment, countless cold air rushed towards Gu Zheng's body in an attempt to freeze Gu Zheng to death.
If this happened to a person at the initial stage of Jin Xian, they probably wouldn't even have a chance to resist and would be frozen into ice. Even if they were caught off guard and managed to escape in time, they would still suffer heavy injuries.
However, to Gu Zheng, this was nothing. He might as well let them rest while he did some warm-up exercises!
Just as Gu Zheng was talking to Bo Xu and the others, there was a dense gurgling sound coming from outside, and a strange fluctuation began to appear on the ice wall.
"Weng weng" A low trembling sound rang out continuously, and even the entire ice barrier began to sway slightly.
At the same time, a large blue light began to circulate on the ice wall, especially the icicles that hung upside down. They flickered with flowing light and looked incomparably gorgeous.
Just as Gu Zheng finished speaking, countless icicles left the ice shield and attacked everyone from all directions.
"Whoosh whoosh!"
Countless icicles of different sizes cut through the air, and the sharp end instantly arrived in front of Gu Zheng.
Gu Zheng's expression turned serious as he raised his fist. A dense number of fist shadows appeared in front of him and collided with the icicles. The icicles were smashed into fine powder upon contact.
On Bo Xu's side, the Lan Xing sisters waved their hands and sword auras rose into the air. They didn't rush towards the icicles, but instead crisscrossed back and forth around them, forming a dense white sword net that completely enveloped them.
After the icicles collided with it, almost all of them were sliced into dozens of pieces. Even if there were some that were missed, they were blocked by Bo Xu, who was at the side. For them, there was no danger at all.
However, they didn't rejoice for long. After the icicles disappeared, circles of strange patterns appeared on the ice wall. Icicles that looked like long spears pierced out from inside, and their hardness instantly doubled, causing the pressure on them to multiply.
However, with the shield that Gu Zheng gave them, even if some of the icicles were missed, they would be blocked by the shield and wouldn't harm them at all.
On the other side, Gu Zheng was still waving his fist shadows in the air, shattering the icicles that attacked him one by one. His body kept moving towards the edge of the ice shield.
When he walked to the edge, his eyes suddenly lit up. After feeling the aura of another snow monster in front of him, he didn't hesitate and suddenly burst out with a strong aura, shattering all the attacks around him.
The fist shadows in the air suddenly shrank, and a fist that was even bigger than before smashed in front of him again.
The fist that didn't seem to have any aura at all, but the moment it touched the ice wall, it exploded with a strong vibration.
"Boom boom boom!"
The deafening sound continued to be heard. In front of Gu Zheng, a three-foot-wide hole was broken open. Around the hole, there was a lot of blue blood and still steaming pieces of flesh.
The snow monsters that were hiding in the ice shield were directly smashed into pieces by Gu Zheng.
These snow monsters weren't standing still on the ice, but they were moving around randomly. Although they didn't make any noise when they moved, and with the cover of the ice shield, it could be said that they were isolated from being found to the greatest extent. However, their unique aura couldn't be hidden in front of Gu Zheng at all. Even if Gu Zheng could only feel a trace of their aura, he could still catch them.
Through this hole, Gu Zheng's body quickly flew up, ready to go out and kill all these disgusting snow monsters.
However, just as he moved, he heard another roar close by. A snow monster suddenly appeared in the air, blocking the hole.
The layer of ice crystal armor on its body instantly fell off, forming a shield that blocked the hole. Little hexagonal blue snowflakes shot towards Gu Zheng like darts at an extremely fast speed.
"Bang!" There was a loud sound.
Gu Zheng's body fell from above in a somewhat sorry state. The edges of his clothes were torn, and bits of blood could be seen on them, as if they had been cut by something sharp.
Looking at the snow monster above, its entire body had begun to turn black, and its entire body was beginning to merge with the ice shield. Traces of black, like veins, quickly spread across the ice wall.
It wasn't just the change in front of him. As if stimulated by the death of its companion, black veins began to appear in other places as well. From Gu Zheng's point of view, half of the ice wall had been dyed black in a few breaths' time. Only through the depths of the ice wall could he see a bit of dark blue.
At this time, the ice spears that filled the sky had disappeared, but countless black arms reached out from the ice shield. They kept extending, and their black nails kept flashing with black light as they clawed downwards.
Gu Zheng was really angry this time. He didn't expect that when he wanted to preserve his strength, he would be killed by these small fries.
Countless white flames emerged from Gu Zheng's body, and a bird-like shadow circled happily above Gu Zheng's head. As the flames on Gu Zheng's body grew higher and higher, it suddenly screeched, and its entire body burst into the flames below.
There was a loud rumbling sound.
A firestorm erupted from Gu Zheng's body, and a large area of flames roared and surged in all directions. The roar of a giant dragon could be heard continuously in the ice shield.
Those dense black arms were burned to ashes in this violent firestorm.
On the other side, Bo Xu was on the side. Although he had a shield and wouldn't hurt them, he was surrounded by the raging flames and couldn't see anything outside.
Feeling the violence contained within, they were a little frightened.
Sounds of shattering could be heard, and above the surrounding ice shield, large amounts of black smoke rose. The original ice shield, under the raging flames, shook continuously. Sounds of Snow Monsters' painful cries could be heard in the air, as if they were suffering from pain.
When all the space was filled with flames, five extremely white lights suddenly lit up in the middle. Then, all the flames quickly retracted.
Five fire dragons made of white flames soared into the air, and suddenly rushed towards the surrounding ice walls.
"Hualala!"
Almost at the same time, five large holes appeared above. This time, the ice walls were unable to stop the fire dragons, and they could once again see the scene outside.
The entire ice wall began to collapse, and Gu Zheng brought Bo Xu and the other two out of the hole with a teleport, arriving at the open space outside.
At this time, the scene outside had changed greatly, especially the surrounding Mountain Guarding Formation. It was originally almost transparent, but now it was completely blood-red, as if there were countless amounts of blood flowing inside. The Great Snow Mountain was also red, as if they had come to hell.
The thick smell of blood was very pungent, causing Lan Xing and the others to frown. They only felt better after they stopped breathing.
At the furthest place from them, there were only eight shriveled Snow Monsters left, weakly crawling on the ground.
The five fire dragons in the air fused together, forming a long river of fire. With endless flames, it roared and swept towards them once again.
When the eight Snow Monsters saw this, they forced themselves to open their mouths, and suddenly spat out large amounts of blue cold air, which condensed into an ice wall in the air to meet the long river of flames.
"Bzzz!"
With the support of the Snow Monsters, the long river of flames was temporarily blocked in front of them, and countless amounts of mist rose up again.
When Gu Zheng saw this, he sneered in his heart. If this stalemate continued, they wouldn't have the strength to resist in a short while. But Gu Zheng couldn't wait that long, and the anger in his heart had already risen.
With a casual flick of his hand, a ball of flames shot out from his finger into the long river of flames.
The originally violent river instantly became even more violent. Flames burst out from the surface of the river, and the ice wall in front of them was instantly melted into a large hole.
All the flames took the opportunity to surge out from the hole, and instantly drowned the eight Snow Monsters.
Following a few cries of death, the river of flames once again flew into the sky. The eight Snow Monsters had already been completely annihilated, and they could not be more dead.
At this time, the entire mountainside was filled with potholes, and basically all the buildings had collapsed. Everywhere was a mess of ruins.
Gu Zheng stretched out his right hand, and the long river of flames in the air instantly flew back to Gu Zheng's wrist, and were all taken back by the Li Bracelet.
"Young master Gu? Why didn't the enemy take advantage of the good opportunity just now to ambush us? "Bo Xu, who was watching from the side, saw all this, and felt that they were all just bystanders.
"I don't know! Maybe the enemy has other ideas. " Gu Zheng looked up, and his gaze seemed to penetrate the mountain peak to see the situation inside. When he heard Bo Xu's words, he shook his head and said.
In fact, this was also what he was puzzled about. He didn't expect to meet the two of them as soon as he came in, as if they were waiting for him here.
Originally, Gu Zheng had already prepared himself for a bitter battle. He thought that the other party wanted to directly eliminate him. However, after saying a few ruthless words for no reason, he left just like that, leaving behind a few shrimp soldiers and crab generals to block them.
Judging from their attacks, they weren't chess pieces that could be casually thrown away. Even if it was a one-time use flag, it was still very useful, and could possibly turn the tide of the battle at a critical moment.
But just throwing it to them like that was like sending them to their deaths, and Gu Zheng couldn't understand it.
But since the other party was willing to sacrifice their strength, Gu Zheng was happy to reduce the pressure on their side, and accept their big gift.
"I wonder how they're doing over there?" Lan Xing said worriedly. He didn't expect the Goblin to give them a head-on blow right from the start. If Gu Zheng wasn't here, it would take a lot of time for them to break through this point, and they would definitely be seriously injured.
Although Bo Xu and Gu Zheng's aura were about the same, and they were both at the late stage of Jin Xian, Gu Zheng probably wouldn't have a problem taking on five of them. The difference was too big.
Gu Zheng thought for a moment, and said to the three of them, "If everything goes well, they've probably already snuck in. You have to know that we deliberately slowed down, and they're definitely faster than us. Don't worry about them. Let's go up and see what tricks they're up to, and distract their attention while we're at it!"
Stepping across the ground that was filled with blue blood, Gu Zheng led them to the only hall up there.
When Gu Zheng had just stepped halfway up the mountain and met the Great Elder and the others, on a vertical cliff behind the Great Snow Mountain, five people had already secretly passed through the Great Protection Formation and started climbing up the mountain.
Their speed wasn't fast, and it wasn't because the mountain was steep. In fact, to them, this almost vertical path was like a flat road.
They were mainly worried that they would attract the Goblin's attention, so they climbed up bit by bit.
"How do we use this thing?" Qi Xiang, the leader, took out a small white ball. When they were outside, it looked ordinary, but when they passed through the Great Protection Formation and entered, it started to glow faintly, as if it was sensing something.
"I remember Young Master Gu told you how to use it? Didn't he ask that so-called Yuan Li to come find us? "A female team member behind him said in surprise.
"Oh, yes! I almost forgot! "Qi Xiang said embarrassedly. In fact, he wasn't too sure.
"Leader's old problem is acting up again." Looking at the expression of sudden realization, the team member behind him muttered in his heart.
Under normal circumstances, when one cultivated to such a level, even if they didn't have a photographic memory, they would have almost forgotten such an important matter in just a few days. It was really unbelievable. However, Qi Xiang had made a mistake in his cultivation, which caused his memory to be bad. But in any case, it was only a little bad. The things that happened a few days ago were only left with a vague impression, but he could still firmly remember the important things.
"Let's go quickly. Perhaps we can find Yuan Li in a short time. With the Goblin leading us, it will be much easier for us. Remember, we must save Gu Zheng's sister safely. Do you understand?" Looking at the expressions of his team members, how could Qi Xiang not know what they were thinking? He didn't care and just continued to make arrangements.
Although they didn't know what Xue Er looked like, Gu Zheng had given her something that allowed them to remember Xue Er's aura. Anyway, their bodies were underwater creatures, and they were very good at using smell to find her.
"Yes, Leader!" The team member behind him whispered softly and continued to climb up.
Soon, they had climbed halfway up the mountain. At this time, the light in Qi Xiang's hand was flashing more fiercely, and it was a little hot. He had to wrap it with Immortal Qi to isolate it so that he could hold it steadily.
"It seems that they are nearby. But this place is full of cliffs. How could there be a place to hide?" Qi Xiang muttered to himself.
With every step forward, he carefully scanned the surroundings to prevent any accidents. Moreover, he paid more attention to the inside of the cliffs. It was not impossible that the other party would send someone to guard the back in a fit of anger.
Because the environment of the Great Snow Mountain was, in fact, somewhat beneficial to them, they all turned their bodies white to reduce the chances of being discovered.
Suddenly, the whole ground trembled, as if there was movement coming from the front of the mountain.
It made the whole team stop.
"Could it be that they are fighting?" Qi Xiang said doubtfully. According to the plan, Gu Zheng and the rest should try their best to delay as much time as possible. At this time, the other party should have just stepped onto the mountainside, about the same speed as them.
"Let's move quickly!" Thinking of this, Qi Xiang said to the team members behind him. They had to hurry up and not waste time here.
"Leader, look, the array outside is changing. It is different from before."
"Don't worry so much. Be careful not to touch it. Protect yourselves!"
"Who are you? How did you come here? " Qi Xiang had just given the order when the sudden voice gave him a fright. He immediately held the weapon in his hand and stretched his other hand into the wall, hanging in the air. He looked in the direction of the voice like a tiger watching its prey.
At this time, a stranger was on a slightly protruding rock above them. He held a crystal-clear ice sword tightly in his hand and looked down vigilantly.
"Are you Sect Leader Yuan, Yuan Li? We are friends of Young Master Gu. He asked us to look for you. " Qi Xiang saw that the other party's appearance was similar to Gu Zheng's description and immediately whispered. At the same time, he took out the item in his hand.
If it was an enemy, why would he ask about his identity the moment he opened his mouth?
A suction force came from his hand and Qi Xiang immediately let go of his hand. He saw the item fly directly into the hand of the person above. In a flash, it disappeared in front of him.
This made Qi Xiang overjoyed. Gu Zheng had told him that only Yuan Li could take back his item. He originally thought that it would take some time before the other party came to look for him. He didn't expect them to come so quickly. This saved him a lot of effort.
Sure enough, the other party looked at the five people below and spoke.
"I am Yuan Li. Show me your token." Yuan Li was sure that the item in his hand was indeed given to Gu Zheng, but he still spoke.
"Token? Isn't that a token? " Qi Xiang was stunned. He looked at Yuan Li and said unconfidently. He remembered clearly that Young Master Gu said that giving him this item would prove his identity.
Yuan Li didn't say anything. He had already grabbed the ice sword in his hand. Traces of killing intent flowed out from his eyes.
This was his territory. Even if the other party's strength was far beyond his, he wasn't afraid. If the other party was really sent by Goblin, then he would teach them a lesson.
