Gu Zheng looked at the person who had suddenly appeared above his head. It was a burly man who was seven feet tall, wearing a blue embroidered robe. His bright eyes were looking through the shield in front of him, sizing up the group.
Sensing the vigorous aura in his body, he was also a mid-stage Jin Xian Ancestor God, and also someone who had come in from outside.
He was not afraid of him, but this tribe had been around for so long, and with the existence of the incense beads, his body must be full of incense power.
It was not like he did not know how powerful incense power was. If he were to go in now, he would definitely be at a disadvantage.
Gu Zheng's mind moved, and the crystal in his hand floated behind his shoulder. He continued to attack the last of the black fog, while he stood up and said.
"I don't know your name, Fellow Daoist. This time, I was indeed a little reckless."
"Duan Qing, it seems that Fellow Daoist's situation is not right. Do you need my help?" Duan Qing looked at Gu Zheng with a smile that did not seem like a smile. He seemed very enthusiastic, but his eyes were cold as he looked at Gu Zheng.
"Fellow Daoist, you are too polite. It is still a little inappropriate for us to disturb Fellow Daoist Duan. After this matter is over, we will definitely repay your kindness in the future." Hearing the nonsense name, Gu Zheng did not mind.
However, Hai Ming had caused trouble, and as his master, he had to take responsibility for his mistakes. Gu Zheng said straightforwardly.
"This is a small matter, not worth mentioning." Duan Qing cracked a smile, as if this was just a small matter, and said coldly, "But that kid, you must stay behind.
"However, that brat behind you must stay. He actually dared to touch my statue of the Ancestor God. You should know what this means."
"He is my disciple! If he really accidentally offended you, you can state your conditions! "Gu Zheng frowned and said to Duan Qing.
Duan Qing slowly landed on the ground and said word by word to Gu Zheng, "Oh, the condition is that he must die here."
Gu Zheng knew that if someone touched the statue, it would be like touching his roots. If something happened to the statue, then he wouldn't be able to use faith to convert the power of incense. Then no matter what he did here, he would be restricted. If it was him, he would also fight with the other party.
However, even if Hai Ming did something evil, he wouldn't need to say anything, he would've understood him. But even if the statue was placed in front of him, he didn't have the ability to destroy it. Even if Hai Ming was willing to compensate for it, he wouldn't be able to do that. But if the statue was placed in front of him, he wouldn't be able to destroy it.
"Is there no other way? One more friend means one more way out. There's no need to make things difficult for a junior. "Gu Zheng narrowed his eyes, not minding the other party's threat at all.
At this moment, all the black fog in his body had retreated to one side and turned into the black worms that he had seen before. They were now struggling desperately. Although the violent Ling Qi was still reducing the opponent's strength, it wasn't very effective. If this continued, it would take a few days to completely destroy the black worms.
"Of course there is. Since you are his master, then if you defeat me, I can't stop you from leaving. But if you lose, then you will die here!" Duan Qing smiled and a yellow fog suddenly appeared in his hand. The light was constantly swallowing and spitting out like a sharp dagger.
"Then let me have a taste of your skills!" Seeing the other party's cold gaze and threatening actions, Gu Zheng grabbed the crystal on his shoulder and stabbed it into his chest under the other party's confused gaze.
"Poof!"
A large amount of blood spurted out from his chest and the purple crystal instantly turned into a pile of powder. All the violent Ling Qi instantly flowed through his chest and launched a final attack on the last of the black worms.
In the blink of an eye, the black worms were drowned by dozens of times more Ling Qi. They let out a sorrowful cry and turned into a small black bead that stayed in Gu Zheng's body. They had completely lost their effect and were immediately forced out of Gu Zheng's mouth and put away.
Without the restriction of the black fog, Gu Zheng's aura began to rise steadily. The clothes on his body fluttered loudly under the impact of the berserk energy that was being emitted.
In a very short time, Gu Zheng's aura had risen to the late Jin Xian.
If only looking at cultivation, Gu Zheng was a level higher than Duan Qing.
"Very good! Then don't blame me for not being polite. " Seeing Gu Zheng like this, Duan Qing understood his choice. However, he thought that Gu Zheng had used some secret method to forcibly increase his strength.
Then his figure flashed and flew into the distance. He would not fight with Duan Qing here. If he was not careful, he would destroy his tribe. That would be tragic.
Gu Zheng glanced at the two unconscious people. It seemed that it would take some time for them to wake up. His figure also flashed and appeared outside the shield.
The white halo shrunk once again, forming a protective space around them. Only then did Gu Zheng follow the other party to an empty space.
"Hehe!"
Seeing that Gu Zheng's chest injury had healed, Duan Qing laughed and did not say anything. He waited until Gu Zheng stood still. Then, he waved his hand and a white light flew out. It was a dagger that was shining with cold light. It attacked at an extremely fast speed in mid-air.
Under the flash of light, the dagger suddenly expanded into a long sword. It spun and slashed horizontally towards Gu Zheng.
Gu Zheng coldly snorted. He extended his hand and pointed in front of him. A golden light barrier suddenly appeared in front of him. The surface of the barrier was like waves on the surface of the sea that kept Gu Zheng behind it.
As soon as the shield was formed, the huge white dagger had already slashed on the golden light shield.
"Clang!" A crisp sound was heard.
The golden light shield looked soft like water, but it was like an iron wall. The huge dagger was directly repelled. The golden light shield fluctuated violently, but it still firmly blocked in front of Gu Zheng.
However, even though the dagger was deflected, after a spin, it whizzed over from another direction and slashed at an unprotected area.
Gu Zheng did not do anything. The golden light shield in front of him elongated and surrounded Gu Zheng like a golden egg. It repelled the dagger's attack again.
"Clang clang clang"
In the blink of an eye, the huge dagger was repelled every time it hit Gu Zheng's light shield. However, it continued to slash back at an even faster speed.
A white shadow was constantly revolving around the golden egg, emitting a continuous sound of metal.
Although the golden light shield was constantly trembling, the golden light shield flickered violently under the roaring waves of the sea. It was still steadily neutralizing his attacks.
Duan Qing Si didn't care about it at all. She changed her hand seal again, and the dagger that flew out flashed with light. It actually split into two, and then into four. After the last split, an identical dagger appeared in the air, and there was even a slightly transparent dagger standing in the middle.
The eight daggers revolved around the middle like a blooming lotus. Countless transparent energy whizzed out from the top along with its rotation. With a sharp ear-piercing sound, it hit the golden light shield, causing its surface to tremble incessantly.
The lotus also crashed into the golden light shield in a suicidal manner.
There was a loud bang!
The golden light shield finally could not withstand such a huge pressure. With a cracking sound, it turned into countless golden lights and dissipated. However, Gu Zheng's figure was not among them. Under the golden light that filled the sky, only the nine long swords were left standing in the void.
"Whoosh!"
A golden light swept out from the void and turned into a huge golden sword in the air. A layer of fiery red flames rose from the sword and fiercely chopped down at the daggers below.
The nine motionless daggers bloomed into a lotus again in the blink of an eye. When the huge flaming sword was about to chop down, the white light on its body shone brightly. All the tips of the daggers pointed upwards, and the daggers on the sides of the sword collided with the huge sword above.
Another earth-shattering sound rang out.
A dazzling sun appeared in the sky, and white and gold rays of light swept out in all directions, dyeing the surroundings into a gorgeous canvas.
However, after a few breaths, the beautiful scenery disappeared and a shadow flew back to Duan Qing.
"Fellow Duan, how about we stop? I still say the same thing. I owe you a favor. If you need it, I will definitely help!"
As the smoke and fire faded, Gu Zheng's figure appeared on the other side.
"Sorry, I have to ask for an explanation for this kind of thing." Duan Qing reached out and caught the dagger. The dagger shrank and returned to his sleeve.
After a short contact, he knew that Duan Qing's current strength was actually at the late stage of Jin Xian. It seemed that Duan Qing had been hiding his strength all this time. However, he still had doubts in his heart.
If they were outside, even if Duan Qing did not say much, he would not have said such words to force Duan Qing. Here, the difference in strength was not absolute.
A small level was no longer an absolute difference.
Countless yellow fog appeared on his body. A familiar power appeared in front of Gu Zheng. Gu Zheng's expression changed. He knew why Duan Qing was so fearless.
A similar layer of yellow fog appeared on Gu Zheng's body. However, compared to Duan Qing's, it was like a Grand Wizard. The thin layer could barely cover his entire body.
However, even if Duan Qing had more Joss Flames than him, Gu Zheng was not afraid. He did not know how many things he had encountered in the storm. If Duan Qing could defeat him just by relying on his power, he could commit suicide and re-cultivate.
Duan Qing made the first move. His whole body seemed to be wearing a layer of yellow fog armor. In the blink of an eye, he crossed the distance between them.
When he was close to Gu Zheng, the yellow fog in front of him suddenly exploded. It turned into countless sparkling yellow threads. Like agile tentacles, they pierced toward Gu Zheng's body.
Gu Zheng had been watching Duan Qing attentively. Seeing this scene, his body flashed and he rushed to the side, trying to go around the ball of threads.
However, at that moment, Duan Qing's eyes flashed white. Two black ball-like objects flew out from behind him. They appeared in front of Gu Zheng at an even faster speed. Light flashed on their bodies and they exploded.
Gu Zheng did not expect this. He was caught off guard and was instantly pushed back by the huge wave of air generated by Duan Qing. The force was so strong that it was like an endless wave. Even though Gu Zheng raised his shield immediately, his body was still pushed back.
However, after taking two steps back, Gu Zheng had already stabilized his body. A golden light flashed, and a path suddenly appeared in front of him. Gu Zheng wanted to speed up and rush through, but the yellow threads behind him had already sped up and taken the opportunity to wrap around him.
The yellow fog on Gu Zheng's body was instantly broken by Duan Qing. It began to circle around Gu Zheng layer by layer. It was so fast that it felt like in the blink of an eye, half of Gu Zheng's body was wrapped in yellow fog. At that moment, as his body tightened, the yellow fog on the surface of Gu Zheng's body dissipated instantly.
Soon, Gu Zheng was wrapped into a yellow cocoon.
When Duan Qing saw that he had succeeded, the yellow light that filled the sky suddenly began to shrink. At the same time, a ball of yellow light began to condense on his fist. He blasted it toward the big cocoon in front of him.
No matter how good his words were, he did not show any mercy.
A terrifying aura flashed in the air and passed through the big cocoon in front of him. However, the moment he succeeded, Duan Qing's expression changed. His entire body retreated rapidly. However, the moment he was about to move, a figure suddenly appeared beside him. The figure expressionlessly threw a punch at him.
Before the wind from the punch arrived, a terrifying aura of destruction rolled out and went straight for Duan Qing's body.
Duan Qing had not yet retracted his fist. His body was in an uncomfortable position, but he did not panic. With a thought, a long black sword suddenly appeared in the air and slashed toward Gu Zheng's side. At the same time, a ball of yellow fog quickly condensed at the place where the attack was about to hit, forming a small cloud.
When the long black sword appeared, it swept toward Gu Zheng with a fierce sword intent. A dark and cold sword intent had already broken into Gu Zheng's mind, forming a small black sword that slashed toward the depths of Gu Zheng's soul.
Duan Qing wanted to shake a trace of his opponent's soul so that he could escape unscathed.
However, Gu Zheng's lips curled into a mocking smile. A golden light flashed in his mind, and the black sword instantly shattered and disappeared without a trace. It was not affected in the slightest.
A layer of yellow light flashed on the surface of his body. He ignored the sword descending from above and saw his opponent's clean and nimble defense. A ball of yellow fog flashed from his fist and covered the surface of his fist.
It shattered the opponent's defense and landed a heavy blow on the opponent's ribs.
A muffled grunt came from his opponent's mouth. His entire body instantly flew into the distance like a shooting star, spraying streams of blood in the air.
Almost at the same time, the long black sword slashed down on Gu Zheng's shoulder.
The defense formed by the book suddenly trembled, then returned to normal. However, an even more fierce sword intent penetrated the shield, turning into scattered sword Qi that rushed into Gu Zheng's body. It began to wreak havoc, causing Gu Zheng to fail in his pursuit. He had no choice but to use all his strength to dispel the sword Qi.
In less than a breath's time, the sword intent in Gu Zheng's body was completely removed. On the other side, Duan Qing also stabilized his body in the air. He looked at Gu Zheng from afar, a look of shock on his face.
He had no idea how Gu Zheng had managed to break out of it. It had to be known that he could clearly sense that there was not much Joss Flame power in Gu Zheng's body. The yellow fog on the surface of Gu Zheng's body had also verified his thoughts. Compared to him, Gu Zheng was so pitiful that he could not bear to compare himself.
Otherwise, Gu Zheng would not have been able to block his threads for even a moment.
Gu Zheng would not tell him that at the moment he was trapped, the demon grass in his body instinctively absorbed half of the yellow fog in an instant, as if it had been hungry for many days. In a very short time, it was converted into incense power that it could use.
Of course, Gu Zheng did not know that the incense power here could not be absorbed at all. No matter who it was, once someone tried to absorb the incense power condensed by others, it would instantly cause a conflict with the body and cause an explosion.
At this time, he looked at the remaining half of the yellow cocoon and directly smashed it with a punch. It turned into a cloud of yellow fog and dissipated in the air.
Because at this time, when the demon grass absorbed a certain amount of incense, it was as if it was full and did not move lazily. Gu Zheng could not absorb it no matter how hard he tried.
Even so, Gu Zheng's body recovered a lot of incense power.
Although Duan Qing did not know what had happened, he knew that he had to be careful. When the big cocoon was smashed by Gu Zheng's punch, a yellow light flashed on his body and a large amount of yellow fog suddenly rushed out from the air. In the blink of an eye, a large area of yellow fog covered a large area, forming a yellow fog sea.
Gu Zheng looked at his surroundings and frowned. His divine sense could only cover a radius of several hundred metres. At this distance, he was no different from a blind man. Although the other party was the same as him, the other party could clearly sense his position.
At this time, the best thing to do was to leave this place. However, when Gu Zheng thought of the unconscious Hai Ming and Duan Qing, he was afraid that something would go wrong.
He decided not to waste time with the other party. After defeating the other party, he had to leave this place. He had already wasted too much time. At this time, Ren Jie and the others might have already arrived.
Besides, with Gu Zheng's inner pride, he disdained to do such a cowardly thing.
Therefore, Gu Zheng raised his vigilance and rushed towards the other party's position. At the same time, he was wary of the other party's surprise attack.
Gu Zheng had just left his position when he found that the yellow fog had begun to shrink rapidly. It shrank into a large yellow ball in the air. Then, a complacent laughter came from the sky.
"Ha ha!"
Gu Zheng did not know what was going on. He immediately stopped and looked at the other party in confusion. At this time, the other party was still standing in the same place, laughing crazily like a fool.
As Gu Zheng was puzzled, he saw the other party raise his hand. Suddenly, alarm bells rang in his heart. But before he could react, a huge yellow pillar of light suddenly fell from above, instantly wrapping around Gu Zheng.
This was a new move that he had wholeheartedly researched. The yellow fog from before was to cover his movements. In fact, as long as the other party did not immediately leave, he would be able to lock onto the other party's position. The other party would also not discover the traces on his body. The other party would be completely focused on defending against his surprise attack. In fact, he had not moved at all.
Even if the other party discovered him, he would not be able to remove the traces on his body in a short period of time.
"My conditions are still the same. As long as the evil man who touched my statue dies, I will immediately release you. You will also not have to suffer the pain of being melted."
Duan Qing said with a look of victory, as if he had already won.
"Oh? This thing doesn't seem to have any power. "
A mocking voice came from the sky.
