At this moment, on an island an unknown distance away, Gu Zheng was resting as usual. It was only in the afternoon that he opened his eyes. Seeing that there was nothing different about his surroundings, he got up and floated in the air. Then, he aimed at a direction and continued forward.
Gu Zheng was heading toward Xing Cai's hometown. However, the distance Gu Zheng had covered was negligible. He was only three days away from the island where he had rested at the beginning.
Near Gu Zheng was a piece of barren land. He slowly made his way along the shore. His expression was extremely indifferent, and he would occasionally stop to admire the scenery of the ocean. He was like a tourist out for a stroll, walking and stopping every now and then.
On this day, a small forest finally appeared in Gu Zheng's line of sight. This caused his footsteps to quicken quite a bit. He had long since grown tired of the monotonous scenery. However, he had done so on purpose for the sake of his little scheme.
Although he was very impatient, his body now had traces of the other party's tracking. He was not willing to lead the trouble to Xing Cai's home.
If what Xing Cai said was true, with their strength, they could easily help him get out of this predicament. However, Gu Zheng was not willing to trouble them. This was not something he could not solve.
Gu Zheng excitedly arrived at the forest. However, just as he stepped into the edge of the forest, a black figure suddenly rushed out of the forest.
At the same time, a dragon-like roar came from the other party's mouth.
"Buzz!"
Following the roar, a strange vibration suddenly appeared in the air. Ripples appeared in the air and quickly spread in all directions. In an instant, it spread over a radius of a thousand miles.
Gu Zheng did not expect that there would be an ambush here. He had been very careful that the other party would sneak attack him. Before he came, he had specially scanned the area and did not find anything unusual.
Therefore, he fell into the trap.
That strange fluctuation swept through Gu Zheng's body, making his soul confused. His whole body could not help but stagnate in the air. His mind also felt dizzy, and he lost connection with the whole world.
Although it only lasted for less than a breath's time, Gu Zheng's confused eyes once again regained their brightness. However, the figure of the other party had already appeared in front of him.
A black fist the size of a washbasin had already appeared in front of Gu Zheng, instantly striking the protective shield that Gu Zheng had been preparing all this time.
Bang!
That was just a shield condensed from the most ordinary Immortal Qi. In front of this heavy fist, it was as weak as tofu. It only caused the other party's body to pause for a moment before it shattered with a loud bang.
Even if there was a slight pause, it was enough time for Gu Zheng to react. At the same time, Gu Zheng's figure fell rapidly, narrowly avoiding the fist.
Although Gu Zheng had managed to dodge his opponent's fatal punch, when his opponent saw that his attack had missed, a powerful whip swept through the air, instantly striking Gu Zheng's left shoulder.
The sound of bones cracking could be heard.
Gu Zheng let out a muffled groan, and his whole body fell diagonally downwards at a high speed. In the end, he smashed a huge pit on the ground.
However, Gu Zheng did not hesitate at all. The moment he landed, he ignored the pain in his body and dashed out rapidly. Behind him, there was another violent explosion.
In the blink of an eye, Gu Zheng was already more than ten thousand feet away from that position. Only then did he turn around and look at that familiar figure. It was Ling Feng.
At this moment, he had also flown up from the smoke and dust below. He shook the dust off his hands and looked at Gu Zheng calmly. Only that pair of cold eyes let Gu Zheng know that he had the intention to kill him.
Gu Zheng frowned. He was not blind. It was obvious that the other party seemed to have broken through a small level. His aura was completely natural, as if there were no flaws at all.
"No wonder he didn't appear for so long. So that's the reason. Fortunately, I have a backup plan. As long as the other party has not advanced into the Grand Heavenly Realm, I have a chance of winning."
Gu Zheng looked at the other party and muttered to himself.
Ling Feng did not seem to want to talk nonsense with him. With a wave of his hand, countless raging silver flames appeared on the surface of his body. The dazzling silver light suddenly burst out, instantly enveloping an area of tens of kilometers, forming a raging flame prison that trapped Gu Zheng.
Gu Zheng's face immediately turned ugly. This was because there was a familiar aura in the void that was very similar to the blood sphere that sealed him. It seemed to be able to block his teleportation.
The weakness of this teleportation sphere was indeed a little big. When fighting with an enemy, once the enemy knew its use, it could be easily broken. It was more useful against fixed formations and the like.
Little did he know that although Ling Feng's gaze seemed stable, he was actually afraid that Gu Zheng would run away again. This was because he was only imitating Kou Qi's aura. In fact, it was just an ordinary reflection that could not block Gu Zheng's teleportation. However, looking at his expression, it seemed that his plan had worked.
This way, regardless of whether Kou Qi's final blood sacrifice still existed, the other party would not be able to escape easily.
Seeing this, Ling Feng smiled sinisterly. His figure flickered, and the four figures simultaneously surrounded the other party.
At this moment, the four Ling Fengs were somewhat different from before. Previously, Gu Zheng had noticed that although the other party had phantoms to fight, their basic movements were somewhat sluggish. Now, it seemed that the other party was like four completely independent people.
Golden light flashed around Gu Zheng, and a weapon appeared in his hand. He quickly retreated, thinking of a way to escape.
Previously, Gu Zheng had seen that the loss of a doppelganger would injure the main body, but now, it seemed that it would not affect him at all.
In an instant, Gu Zheng's mind filtered through so much information. Many of his previous judgments were no longer valid. He had to be careful.
At this moment, Ling Feng had already rushed in front of him. Runes revolved around his black fist, and he sped up again, aiming for Gu Zheng's injured left shoulder.
Gu Zheng's expression didn't change as he dodged to the side, stabbing his sword towards Ling Feng's waist from the right.
Ling Feng's figure flickered, and he retracted his fist. At the same time, he teleported several meters to the side, easily dodging Gu Zheng's attack. His main goal was to tie down the other party's figure. Once he joined in, it would be the other party's time to die.
At this moment, to Gu Zheng's right, another Ling Feng filled with anger was approaching. Before he even arrived, a huge black fist carrying a huge force rushed towards Gu Zheng.
A gust of wind rushed towards him, causing Gu Zheng to instinctively raise a barrier to block it.
Gu Zheng was just about to block the other party's attack when the previously smiling Ling Feng moved. He rushed towards Gu Zheng's side and threw a punch, forcing Gu Zheng into a pincer attack.
However, this wasn't the end of it. At this moment, another Ling Feng filled with sorrow had already attacked from the other side, completely sealing off all of Gu Zheng's escape routes.
At this critical moment, Gu Zheng's body emitted countless golden lights. At the same time, countless golden lightning arcs jumped back and forth on his body. The entire void was filled with the crackling sound of lightning. The terrifying might made the surrounding void somewhat blurry.
Seeing this, the three Ling Fengs subconsciously slowed down a little.
Before the other party could get close, countless golden lights suddenly burst out from Gu Zheng's body, turning into dense golden lightning that shot out in all directions. Countless terrifying whistling sounds broke through the air, like an exploding sun.
The three Ling Fengs' expressions changed at the same time. They didn't care about attacking, and their figures flashed at almost the same time, explosively retreating, a layer of green barrier rising from their bodies.
Countless golden lightning struck the other side's barrier, like a storm descending. Pu pu sounds rang out continuously, hitting the three people's green barrier until it was impossible to see the figures inside clearly. However, although the green barrier was flashing very violently, it didn't break, but the original encirclement was forced to disperse.
When the lightning disappeared, Gu Zheng was just about to leave this place and escape into the distance, thinking of a way to break this silver flame barrier.
The last Ling Feng suddenly flashed out diagonally from below, moving his arm, a black arc of light appeared in the air, forming a black dagger standing on Gu Zheng's arm.
Pu chi!
The golden light protecting Gu Zheng's body was suddenly broken, and a huge slanted wound was left on his arm. A large piece of fresh flesh rolled out, and blood immediately gushed out.
The barrier that was originally able to block at least one of the opponent's attacks was now like a piece of paper, easily broken by the dagger formed by the opponent.
Before the opponent could continue to attack, the furious Gu Zheng pointed his sword at his face. In the end, before Gu Zheng could do anything, this Ling Feng let go of the weapon in his hand and quickly retreated, leaving Gu Zheng with nowhere to vent his strength.
Because the previous impression Ling Feng gave Gu Zheng was a fist, Gu Zheng chose to forget that the opponent's weapon could change. Before this, it had turned into a spear right under Gu Zheng's eyes.
At this time, the Ling Feng, who was not far away, stepped forward, cupped his fist, and attacked Gu Zheng's head, abdomen, and lower limbs. The Ling Feng below waved his hand, and the black dagger in the air once again turned into a cloud of mist and returned to his hand. With a slight wriggle, it once again covered his hand, turning into a black glove.
Seeing this, Gu Zheng did not say anything and fled into the distance.
Previously, he still wanted to compete with the opponent, but now he had to admit that after the opponent's small advancement, it would be difficult for the current him to defeat the opponent, and he might even lose.
Although Gu Zheng did not want to admit it, he had no choice but to admit that the other party was stronger than him. Thinking up to that point, Gu Zheng's hatred for the seal on his body grew. Additionally, the other party was indeed very strong and had plenty of combat experience. Otherwise, he would not have ended up in such a sorry state.
Gu Zheng's figure continued to run into the distance, and behind him were four Ling Fengs who were chasing closely.
Looking at the raging flames in front of him, Gu Zheng's body flashed slightly, and his whole body was wrapped in a cloud of dense golden light. Gu Zheng passed through the seemingly powerful obstruction in an instant, and did not stop at all, leaving behind a hole that was a few feet wide.
Ling Feng seemed to have expected this result, and the four people behind him once again dissipated into a cloud of smoke and entered his body. He casually put away the silver flame, turning it into a small bracelet and returning it to his wrist.
Looking at Gu Zheng who was running away, Ling Feng's figure instantly followed. This time, he wanted to end everything. He wanted Gu Zheng's life. If it was not Gu Zheng's death, he would die. He would not give up before that.
Gu Zheng accelerated in front, and instantly turned into a beam of golden light and disappeared into the distance. Behind him, Ling Feng followed Gu Zheng's traces and left the place together.
Although Ling Feng could not see Gu Zheng's figure, it knew that the opponent was escaping in front of it. It had the black bug, and it was impossible to use other methods to hide from it.
For a whole ten days, Gu Zheng escaped into the depths of the sea without rest. He adjusted his breath while escaping, heading towards the location he had set up long ago.
In order to make it more realistic, Gu Zheng even took the opportunity to rest on the way, and when the opponent caught up, he would leave in a panic.
Whether the opponent believed it or not, although Gu Zheng had deliberately shrunk in the previous battle, otherwise, he would not have been beaten so badly. The opponent's strength was beyond his expectations. In an instant, he could only give up on the plan to deal with the opponent and directly enter into a state of escape.
Although Gu Zheng's speed was very fast at the beginning, the opponent's speed was even faster, forcing Gu Zheng to use all his strength to escape. Only when necessary, would he explode with speed and stop for a while.
The journey that was supposed to take half a month was almost completed in a short ten days.
Not far behind him, not far away, Gu Zheng looked at a towering mountain peak in front of him and laughed lightly. Then, he directly fell into the mountain peak that was surrounded by white fog and disappeared into the air.
Not long after Gu Zheng entered, the white fog rapidly surged and spread outwards. The island itself was not very big, and the mountain range on it was hidden in the thick white fog.
In the area where the white fog spread, some bright silver light rippled. Every time it flickered, a dreamlike scene would appear. Exquisite white jade bridges suddenly appeared in the void, and beautiful palaces also appeared on the mountain peak. Some track and field paths also appeared in the air, connecting the various places.
In the middle, there were also many small pavilions for others to rest. It was like a paradise, a scene of immortals. The only flaw was that although there were small bridges, flowing water, and lush flowers, and even some vague figures of animals hidden in them, there was not a single person on it.
There was not the slightest bit of life, and it made people tremble.
And when Ling Feng, who followed closely, saw everything in front of him, his eyes were filled with disdain.
"This is the grave I found for you?"
Ling Feng shouted at the bottom. He had already sensed Gu Zheng's aura somewhere below.
But other than a gust of wind blowing, which brought a trace of fog to the distance, there was no response from below.
"Good, good, I want to see what other tricks you can play."
As soon as Ling Feng's voice fell, his whole body disappeared into the fog below, and flew towards the hall in the distance. He passed by those tall halls and the many luxurious pavilions, but did not care at all. He directly rushed towards the place where he sensed the deepest in his heart.
"Bang!"
Ling Feng's feet landed heavily on the topmost mountain peak, and the white jade-like floor tiles below instantly shattered into pieces.
Ling Feng reached out and grabbed a piece of debris. He looked at it carefully in his hand and praised. It was no different from the real thing, but he knew that it was just an illusion.
It looked very real, and it was almost impossible to distinguish it in his hand. But in the end, it was still fake.
There was a huge hall in front of him, and it was obviously much taller than before. There was a golden plaque on it, and three words were clearly engraved.
"Afterlife Hall"
"Deliberately mystifying guy, I will destroy your soul today, and you will never be able to reincarnate."
Ling Feng snorted coldly. He raised his hand and paused. A black light emitted from his fingertips and instantly shot at the plaque.
With a clear and crisp sound, the top of the card suddenly turned into pieces and fell from the top, breaking into more than a dozen pieces.
"Guest, please come in. Sect Master is waiting for you in the hall!"
He did not know when a few beautiful figures appeared around him, and they said to Ling Feng.
Looking at these beautiful maids, each of them could be said to be as beautiful as flowers, but they stood obediently in the distance. They were very sensible and did not come close to him.
Ling Feng did not have the leisure to argue with them. His eyes emitted a green light, and he looked around.
In this place, he had lost a specific sense of Gu Zheng. He only felt that the other party was nowhere to be found. It must be this array that interfered with his consciousness.
The maid beside Ling Feng was still chattering about something, which made Ling Feng feel a burst of impatience. He was surprised that he couldn't see through the array at a glance.
With a wave of his hand, a gust of wind rose out of nowhere. The maids were blown by the wind, and they all turned into clouds of white mist and dissipated between heaven and earth. The voice that made Ling Feng feel impatient also disappeared at the same time. Only then did he look more carefully at the surrounding situation.
Two green lights shot out from his eyes, like searchlights, into the thick white mist, and even into the hall in front of him.
He was not so stupid. He knew that this was the other party's territory and still foolishly went in.
However, he also did not believe that the other party could set up an array in just a few months, especially such a huge array. Could it be that the other party wanted to trap him here for a few decades, and then wait for an opportunity to escape?
It was a good plan, but it was a pity that it did not go as you wished.
The green light in Ling Feng's eyes quickly retracted. He could not see any flaws. Moreover, there seemed to be a mysterious force in the hall that was preventing him from probing further.
His eyes suddenly focused, and became more murderous. His body did not move, but naturally, three figures rushed out of his body and ran toward the pavilions outside.
This lasted for a full six hours, and Ling Feng stood in the same place without moving. He had already set up a simple defensive net outside, and the other party could not escape quietly. In addition, he was constantly using the black insects. At such a close distance, he could directly sense the other party's position.
