"I know how you feel, I'm just as angry. The other side is like a cunning fox, turning and fleeing as soon as something goes wrong. Unless you can seal the space around the other side and make it impossible for him to escape, we won't be able to catch him," Ling Feng also angrily said.
"It's not like there is no way around it. In the past, I had accidentally learned an incomplete magic array. However, my current level of strength is still insufficient. I need to burn my own blood essence to utilize it. If I succeed in utilizing it, all space within a radius of 5,000 kilometres will be locked down and no one will be able to utilize spatial magic."
Kou Qi slowly said as he raised his hand. A faint silver light floated on his palm as he healed his chest. The remnant sword intent on his chest quickly disappeared, and his wounds quickly healed.
"Good, let's see how the other side will escape if you use this method. We'll let him live for a while," Ling Feng excitedly said.
"But after I use it, it will consume a lot of my mind power. I might not be able to help you deal with him," Kou Qi said with some hesitation. After all, the other side was very powerful. Even two peak Jin Xian cultivators couldn't do anything to him. The other side truly had some skill.
"It's alright. Don't worry. It's not like you don't know what I'm capable of. You just need to block his path of retreat. Leave the rest to me. I'll definitely show him what I'm capable of." Ling Feng's eyes flashed with a trace of killing intent as he spoke confidently.
"Okay, no problem." Thinking of the past few battles, Ling Feng always had the upper hand. Moreover, after a few moves, Ling Feng couldn't wait to escape. Moreover, he was full of confidence in Ling Feng, so he readily agreed.
After saying that, Kou Qi closed his eyes and began to quietly heal. Ling Feng was guarding the surroundings to prevent Gu Zheng from sneaking up on him again.
At this time, Gu Zheng didn't have the time to think about that. His body turned into a ray of light as he kept moving forward. Was he trying to sense the situation behind him to see if the other side was chasing him?
The punch that the other party gave him was beyond his imagination. He thought that he would be fine after blocking the other party's strongest attack with his fiendish energy. He could also make the other party unclear about his move and make the other party think that it was a transcendent artifact, making the next sneak attack easier.
Who would have thought that the defense he was so proud of would be so easily broken by the other side? Moreover, it was only the other side's attack power that was beyond his imagination.
His internal organs had all been displaced, and pain was constantly coming from his abdomen. He didn't even bother wiping the blood from his mouth as he kept running forward.
If he was blocked by the other side, he would have wanted to cry. It was because of his carelessness that he ended up like this..
Fortunately, he had managed to heavily injure one of the enemy's people. It was just a pity that the thing that had been tracking him had been well protected by him. He had even been injured to protect it. Otherwise, his final burst of power would have definitely been able to take the life of that thing.
Gu Zheng heaved a sigh of relief when he saw that the other party didn't chase after him. From the looks of it, they were protecting their companions, afraid that he would turn around and launch a sneak attack.
However, he still didn't stop. He only slowed down a little to control the injuries in his body.
.....
One day later, in a huge lake, a blurry figure suddenly appeared in the air and fell down. The figure seemed to be unable to control himself, and could only let his body fall naturally into the lake.
There was a loud boom.
In the middle of the lake, as the figure fell, a water column that was ten feet tall exploded. Who knew how many fishes and prawns below were stunned or killed by the huge impact. Huge waves were set off on the lake's surface, constantly swarming towards the surroundings.
However, when it only reached 1% of the lake, it gradually lost the surging waves. Only the ripples on the lake's surface continued to show its existence.
Although the figure that fell in had suffered such a huge impact, he still didn't wake up. His whole body slowly floated down to the bottom of the lake.
If one looked at it from the sky, this lake covered a huge area. The forest beside it was also endless. Only a few mountain peaks were scattered around. It could be said that there was only one place. Not far from the easternmost side was the vast sea.
As the lake's surface calmed down again, it gradually returned to its previous state.
In the depths of the lake at the bottom, no living creatures were active here.
The moment the figure came in, a profound aura slowly rose up from below, as if it had been startled. Along with the vibration of the rock at the bottom, countless mud began to roll up, stirring up the bottom of the lake into a mess. A huge shadow rose up from below.
The eye was as big as a house, and it illuminated the surface of the lake as if it was daytime. The moment it appeared, all the creatures in the area fled. Even the creatures in other places were hiding in a corner, trembling in fear.
Even if it was prey that was about to be caught, they gave up without hesitation and immediately hid in a corner.
The entire lake was filled with fear, and it was dead silent.
The eye looked up and saw a human silhouette descending at a steady pace. If this continued, it would only take half a day for him to land on the gigantic creature's body.
However, it didn't do anything else. Instead, it quietly looked at the figure. Although it wasn't as big as a strand of its hair, it gave it a special feeling.
As the figure slowly descended, the creature that was on guard felt a trace of its own familiar aura, which made it a little anxious.
A trace of doubt, a trace of confusion, seventy percent of excitement, and a trace of excitement.
Suddenly, it felt a familiar aura from the figure. It turned out that it was the aura that it left behind.
As he opened his mouth slightly, a stream of air bubbles emerged from his mouth and surged upward. One of the air bubbles wrapped around the figure as it passed by, then slowly brought him in front of the creature.
Feeling that the figure's body was in chaos, the creature didn't hesitate to spit out a white stream of water. After circling the water twice, it rushed into the figure's body to help him calm down.
The pain on the figure's face gradually eased, but it still didn't show any signs of waking up.
Just as the figure's body was about to be suppressed, a stream of black gas was suddenly spat out from the figure's mouth. The black gas formed a ferocious face in the water, threatening the creature. It seemed to be scolding the creature for meddling in other people's business and telling it to leave.
That powerful aura caused the water in a radius of several thousand meters to be pushed away, forming a vacuum.
The giant creature's pupils shrank. It wasn't that it was afraid of the aura, but the owner of the aura was Daluo Jinxian. It made it hesitate.
But when it saw the figure next to it, its face froze. A cold light shot out from its mouth and surrounded the black gas. It gradually compressed it to the size of a grain of rice.
The black fog struggled desperately inside, but it couldn't break free at all. As layers of orange light lit up on the outside, it finally stopped moving inside and was sealed.
It was just a small aura, so it wasn't afraid.
The creature's mind moved, and the seal quickly flew to the top of the lake. However, in just a moment, the grain of rice that hadn't gone too far flew back with extreme speed and entered Gu Zheng's body.
The creature was shocked. It checked the figure carefully, and its giant eyes showed that it understood. It didn't ask him anymore. It put the figure on its back and slowly sank into the lake.
With a shake, rocks flew out of nowhere and restored the lake to its original state. After the creature did all this, it went back to sleep.
As the creature slept, the lake returned to its original state. There was no difference.
A day passed quickly. The eyelashes of the sleeping figure began to tremble. Suddenly, a pair of clear eyes opened. Looking at the slightly dark surroundings, Gu Zheng's eyes were dazed for a moment. However, he recovered in the blink of an eye and sat up straight.
"This is …" Gu Zheng saw a layer of bubbles around him. It seemed like someone was protecting him.
He felt that the blood in his body had calmed down. He was sure that someone had healed him while he was unconscious. Otherwise, he wouldn't have felt so relaxed.
Gu Zheng's consciousness instantly scanned the huge area. There was no one, but he could still find that the area was very chaotic. It seemed like there was a small battle.
After finding no traces of anyone else, Gu Zheng could only silently thank the person who had saved him. When he realized that he had only been unconscious for a day, he let out a sigh of relief. At least he still had enough time to heal himself.
He estimated that the injury he left on the other party would take at least half a month to get up. It would take at least half a year for the other party to recover completely. After all, he had added something.
There was more than enough time left for him. He had to quickly get rid of the black mist in his body.
Gu Zheng had thought about it before. The black mist looked inconspicuous, but it was so powerful. It was actually condensed from the aura of a mid-stage Grand Heavenly Immortal.
When he was escaping, it exploded in his body. He didn't expect it at all. After all, the little thing's aura was at most at the Celestial Immortal Realm. It didn't care about the black mist at all.
Moreover, the other party disappeared as soon as it entered his body. Gu Zheng thought that the power was too weak. He thought that it was automatically destroyed by his body, so he didn't care at all.
Therefore, when it exploded, he was at a disadvantage after barely resisting it. He only had time to protect his heart meridian before he fainted.
However, Gu Zheng knew that the master of the Qi family was a mid-stage Grand Heavenly Immortal. Thinking of this, the black mist might also provide the other party with information about his location. He had to hurry.
After seeing that there was no danger again, Gu Zheng didn't burst the bubble. He directly held his breath and began to enter a meditative state.
Ten days passed quickly. Gu Zheng woke up from his meditative state. However, Gu Zheng's face was very ugly because during this period, he couldn't do anything to that thing. Although it had been severely injured by the person who saved him and was sealed, it was extremely tough.
He had been in a deadlock with it for five days, but he couldn't do anything to it. In the end, he could only temporarily seal it.
However, he had no choice but to do so. With his current strength, he couldn't refine it at all. He felt that he was just a little bit away from completely destroying it. Now, he could only trap it in his body. He didn't even have the strength to force it out even if he wanted to.
Gu Zheng planned to recuperate for a few days to restore his body to a better state to deal with the other party's attack. The other party couldn't wait until his injuries were healed to pursue him. By that time, Gu Zheng would be long gone. They wouldn't be able to find him even if they wanted to.
However, after only two days, Gu Zheng's eyes suddenly opened. That was because the other party had silently appeared above his head in the lake. Otherwise, he wouldn't have noticed the movements that the other party had deliberately made.
The two people's eyes were shining brightly, as if they could see through the endless lake to see him at the bottom. Kou Qi, in particular, didn't look injured at all. This was beyond Gu Zheng's expectations.
However, although the other party knew that he was hiding in the lake, they didn't seem to know his exact location. This made Gu Zheng's heart tremble. The bubble outside his body silently burst, then Gu Zheng's body turned, turning into a stone that was exactly the same as the surrounding area. He quietly swam to the other side.
At the same time, Gu Zheng threw out a large green crystal. This time, Gu Zheng didn't hesitate and took out a large green crystal. He didn't care about the loss of the green gas inside. At least half of it would be wasted, but Gu Zheng had to be prepared for the worst.
With such a large area, Gu Zheng felt that it was impossible for him to quietly escape.
However, when the other party entered the water, Gu Zheng's figure suddenly paused and quietly returned to his original form, hiding in a remote corner.
The moment the other party entered the water, Gu Zheng clearly felt that there was something wrong with Kou Qi's figure. After thinking about it, he understood that the other party's injuries weren't healed at all. They were just forcefully suppressed, perhaps worried that he would escape to a place where they couldn't chase him.
One must know that in the water, he was at least familiar with it. Thanks to Xiang Xiang's guidance, at least when he was observing them, they couldn't sense him at all.
His advantage was that he was more familiar with the water than they were. Of course, compared to the water tribe, it was like a Grand Wizard, not worth mentioning. However, for the other party, this was his advantage.
Since the other party was so confident in chasing him and didn't even care about his injuries, why not use this opportunity to get rid of the injured enemy?
Thinking of this, Gu Zheng picked up a piece of rock and threw it at his previous position. In the blink of an eye, he returned to his original appearance and closed his eyes to adjust his breathing, as if he didn't know what was going on above.
On the other hand, Gu Zheng continued to hide and began to refine the energy of the green crystal. Whether or not he would be able to make a contribution depended on it.
At this time, Ling Feng and the other person's figures were slightly clumsy as they swam down, but their speed wasn't slow. In the blink of an eye, they were almost at the bottom of the sea.
At this time, 'Gu Zheng', who was closing his eyes, seemed to have just noticed them. He suddenly opened his eyes and ran out in a panic.
At the same time, Ling Feng and the others also saw Gu Zheng's figure. Ling Feng's slightly excited voice sounded.
"Kou Qi, as you expected, the other party was heavily injured by the master's aura."
At this time, in his eyes, Gu Zheng's face was pale, and his aura was chaotic. There was also a trace of black fog surrounding his figure, which was exactly the same as the black bug's aura. The black bug was originally the master's item, and was used to control the black beast. Of course, it contained a trace of the master's consciousness.
At that time, when the black bug was in danger, it automatically counterattacked. Kou Qi saw it clearly, so when it was about time, he directly chased after it with Ling Feng. Moreover, with the black fog in the other party's body, he could already accurately track the other party's location within a few thousand meters.
He didn't expect to see the panicking Gu Zheng as soon as he arrived. This made him overjoyed. Seeing that he wanted to escape, he pulled Kou Qi and instantly sped up to chase after him.
"Wait …" Kou Qi looked at the frightened Gu Zheng in front of him and frowned. The other party had never shown such an expression before, so why was it so strange this time? Something felt wrong.
But before he could finish, his whole body was pulled down by Ling Feng, interrupting what he wanted to say.
Unfortunately, he couldn't speak loudly underwater, or else he would have shouted.
"Where do you think you're going?!"
In the next moment, he was behind Gu Zheng, and directly punched at Gu Zheng's back without any fancy moves.
"Bang!" A loud sound was heard.
Under Ling Feng's shocked gaze, the Gu Zheng in front of him actually turned into stone fragments and scattered in the air. This made him realize that this was just a fake used to confuse them.
Unfortunately, when the fake Gu Zheng was destroyed, the real Gu Zheng had already activated the formation he had just left behind. It didn't matter if his position was exposed, since he wouldn't be able to hide for long before the other party found him.
A huge blue barrier rose from the bottom of the water, trapping them inside.
Gu Zheng looked at the spell in his hand that was about to be completed and gave up on controlling the barrier. It was enough to buy him some time. After all, this was only a defensive spell, and its lethality was pitifully low. He focused on preparing the surprise for them.
And this change, Ling Feng and the others felt their vision blur, and their surroundings immediately changed. The surrounding dark lake water disappeared, and they found themselves in a blue space.
A blue barrier firmly trapped them in place, reflecting the blue color of the water.
Small whirlpools spun in the water, and a suction force sucked in Ling Feng and Ye Xiwen from all directions, causing their bodies to become heavier and their movement speed to slow down.
Ling Feng extended his fist towards the whirlpool in front of him and suddenly exploded.
A clear fluctuation suddenly appeared in the water, and countless streams of water rushed towards those small whirlpools, not disturbing them at all. The suction force was still continuously appearing.
Ling Feng extended his hand towards one of the whirlpools in front of him, but his hand directly passed through it. Those whirlpools seemed to ignore all attacks.
"Don't waste time, unless there's no water, it won't be so easily destroyed." Kou Qi, who had circled around, already understood the mysteries of the formation. Seeing that Ling Feng's efforts were useless, he spoke up.
"This is a defensive formation the other side set up to block us. It has almost no power and can't hurt us. Let's quickly break it."
