"Can you explain this mission to me?"
Gu Zheng asked softly in a long room that wasn't very wide.
Unlike the outside, there weren't many people here, but it was very quiet. Other than the rustling of voices, there was basically no noise.
Furthermore, there were basically no decorations, which was very practical.
"The other party seems to have made some movements recently. According to unreliable sources, they might have found a way to bypass the formation of the Black Forest and give us a thunderous blow. However, we have ruled out any paths and don't believe that they can come over. However, we still issued this mission. As long as you can find out their specific thoughts and submit valuable information, the mission will be considered completed." A man in front of him pointed at the table and said.
"Then why is there such a condition?" Gu Zheng asked as he looked at the words below.
"Because it might not be correct, so it's very likely that you won't be able to complete the mission. However, some traitors have built a temporary structure behind the other party. Many of our secrets are inside. You just have to destroy that place!"
"Then how do you know about the situation there? Even if you destroy that place, the other party will rebuild it again. It won't be a waste of effort." Gu Zheng asked doubtfully.
"The person who holds the core secrets has been killed by us. Furthermore, the other party hasn't paid attention to the contents inside yet. Therefore, this is the best time. As long as you complete this mission, we can help you upgrade your blue badge to red." The man said softly.
"I'll accept it." Gu Zheng thought for a moment and finally accepted the mission.
Only then could he obtain the most important information here. He had a feeling that if he didn't escape in time, he would definitely die in the end.
The outcome was already decided. Even if he was here, he wouldn't be able to change everything with his own strength. At the very center, there were two auras of the Grand Heavenly of the human race. However, he didn't hear anything about them later. It seemed like they had failed.
However, he didn't even know the most crucial information. Even now, he didn't have any thoughts of escaping other than understanding some things of the past.
The more information he had, the more he could understand what was going on here. Only then would he be able to target this place.
Because someone had passed the test, and that was Star Tyrant. However, when he asked, he found out that the content of his test was completely different from what he encountered. Instead, it was him escaping with his father for thousands of miles, escaping the pursuit after the destruction. He narrowly escaped death and was only teleported out at the last moment.
However, he didn't even know what he was going to do, let alone get out of here.
"I hope everything goes well for you. Seven people have already died on this mission. When you accepted this mission, we were sure that you were one of us. Take care," the man whispered to Gu Zheng as he was about to leave.
Gu Zheng was stunned for a moment. Then, he walked out without looking back.
After he was completely out of the area, Gu Zheng looked at the ring in his hand. At this time, there was a crack. He gently touched the scratch with his finger, and his heart was somewhat clear.
This ring was obviously giving him crucial information. Could it be that the woman said she would help him? So it was here.
Based on what he said just now, only seven people were useful and should be very important. Coupled with the previous battle between humans and demons, could it be that within seven days, the other side would be able to launch a surprise attack and start the final battle?
Gu Zheng thought about it for a while. He did not know if his conclusion was correct. However, if that was the case, he had to escape within seven days. Otherwise, he would either be killed by the other party or die from the destruction of this place.
However, he had to hurry up now.
Thinking of this, Gu Zheng immediately went to Yingshao. He ignored the attentive merchant and went directly to Yingshao. He told them that he would be leaving for a few days and asked them to stay here for the time being.
Seeing that they did not say anything, Gu Zheng nodded and walked directly to the teleportation point outside the village.
This place was too far away from the outermost area. If there was no teleportation array, it would be impossible to dispatch in time. One had to know that changes on the battlefield were too fast. With the teleportation array, one could grasp the information in time.
Of course, this thing generally could not be teleported. Only people with special missions and military orders could use it.
In a flash, Gu Zheng appeared in another place. This was a relatively hidden mountain crevice. In the distance, there was a person who looked like a guard. After seeing Gu Zheng arrive, the person raised his eyelids and glanced at him. Then, he continued to sit in the same place. His body did not move at all.
Gu Zheng did not care and directly flew out.
Just as he left the mountain crevice, an overwhelming gray fog covered Gu Zheng's surroundings. He could not even see his fingers, making him feel quite shocked.
However, in the next moment, the badge on Gu Zheng's chest gave off a faint blue light. A cool aura came from his chest and entered Gu Zheng's eyes, causing his eyes to give off a faint blue light.
By now, the gray fog had become quite faint to Gu Zheng, and he could see his surroundings clearly. It did not affect him at all.
Gu Zheng finally knew who had placed these things here. Even after tens of thousands of years, they were still incredibly useful. It was just that their effects were not as good.
Looking back, Gu Zheng did not see the mountain that he had climbed. Back then, the geography had greatly changed. At the very least, Gu Zheng did not see any mountain peaks.
The teleportation channel here was quite far from the frontlines, but Gu Zheng did not plan to go there. Instead, he took a big detour and flew in another direction.
He already knew the general geography of the other side, and the pavilion that he needed to destroy was at the back.
As for the rumor that had been circulating, Gu Zheng did not plan to look for it. If it was true, then it would be a top secret for the other side. It was not something that he could find out in a few days.
As for the Book Collection Pavilion, it wasn't highly valued and its protection was relatively lax. It was the best choice for Gu Zheng.
After leaving the original place, Gu Zheng's aura changed, becoming Zi Yi's aura. In order to prevent the other side from detecting him, he had spent a bit of effort to change his aura from the inside out.
This way, he could guarantee his safety.
As for the people in front of him, Gu Zheng did not want to know how they had failed. After all, even if the other side did not pay attention to him, he was still in the depths of the other side. Especially now, they were even more on guard against spies. He did not believe that the other side would think of this.
Soon, Gu Zheng passed through the fog and arrived at the other side.
Gu Zheng spread out his Divine Sense and sensed the situation around him.
Soon, Gu Zheng grasped the situation around him and roughly knew where he was. He did not stay for long and directly flew into the distance.
After carefully avoiding pairs of patrolling soldiers, Gu Zheng finally flew out of the mountain and saw a huge camp.
There were flashes of light everywhere, and it was clear that there were many restrictions set up. Occasionally, there would be streaks of light rising and falling. There were also a few tall buildings inside. It seemed that the other side had set up their camp here.
Seeing that the other side's defenses were so weak, Gu Zheng directly swaggered over from the side. The Goblin on guard glanced at Gu Zheng and did not pay any attention to him, smoothly sneaking in.
It must be that compared to the human side, it was more messy. Gu Zheng did not even find any powerful people stationed here, which made it convenient for Gu Zheng to move around.
Arriving at a secluded corner where no one was paying attention, Gu Zheng pointed at the void. Strands of invisible ripples wrapped around his body. Soon, Gu Zheng's body gradually turned transparent before he disappeared from where he stood.
According to the information he knew, Gu Zheng began to walk along the edge of the side. After half a day, he discovered a green building that looked like a pavilion. The surroundings were emitting a faint green light. It looked like it was also shrouded in a restriction.
However, there was an early stage Jin Xian Goblin guarding the door, which made him frown.
The only door was tightly shut. Obviously, he had to use a special method to open it. However, he might not be able to use force here. Once he was discovered, even ten of him would be dead.
While he was hesitating, a figure flashed in the distance and flew towards him. It was indeed a young man of the Human Clan. He looked very ordinary, but his body was weak. He was only in the middle stage of the Celestial Immortal Realm.
With a thought, Gu Zheng attached himself to the young man like a fallen leaf, but the young man did not notice it at all.
"I'm here to put some things in here." The young man said politely to the gatekeeper and showed a token at the same time.
The gatekeeper looked at it and sent a golden light behind him. The door in front of him opened. Then, the young man thanked the gatekeeper and walked in.
The young man did not hesitate and went up to the second floor. He took out a book with spiritual light in his hand and found a row of empty places. After putting it in, he left.
After the young man left, the door closed again.
As for Gu Zheng, he remained motionless in a corner of the room. He waited for a long time after a careful Divine Sense left. Only then did he slowly reveal his body in the room.
Gu Zheng glanced around and found that there were some books stored in these three floors. However, the first two floors should not be of great value because the third floor was surrounded by a layer of restriction. It seemed to be very important.
However, when Gu Zheng's divine sense swept through the names of the books, he immediately lost interest. Most of them were cultivation methods. Some of them were top cultivation methods. However, for Gu Zheng, they were useless.
He took out a book next to him and saw that it was introducing some of the secrets of the Human Clan here. He browsed it for a while and put it down again.
He was not interested in the contents of the book at all. Moreover, he knew that if there was any key information, his ring would automatically tell him. He could not ignore it at all.
Gu Zheng began to quickly flip through the books. He skimmed through the books as if he was flying, but he also skimmed through every single word on the books. His eyes were always on his ring.
"This is!"
Gu Zheng picked up the book mechanically for half a day. Just when he was about to put it down, he suddenly picked it up again.
"The Land of Inheritance of the Human Clan … A human Grand Luo Heroic Soul voluntarily entered … When besieged, he prayed for protection … There is a Soul Devouring Flower. Be careful."
When Gu Zheng read ten lines at a glance just now, there were clearly words in it. However, when he picked it up and looked at it, most of the content was blank. Only some scattered things were recorded in it. Moreover, the information he saw just now had no impression at all.
Gu Zheng put down the book in his hand and quickly picked up the book just now. However, he found that it was even worse than this one. It was all blank. Only a few lines of words were still on it. Moreover, they were all one after another. He did not know what they meant at all.
At this moment, an earth-shattering shout suddenly came from outside. It seemed to be a kind of venting of victory.
"The Ill Wind Mountain Range has been breached!"
This thought suddenly appeared in Gu Zheng's mind. He had only been here for a day and such a thing had happened. This made Gu Zheng anxious.
He no longer cared about those books and began to flip through the remaining books in the collection again.
After the Heroic Soul enters, it will suddenly appear outside. It is usually very fragrant and is especially good at charming the soul, luring the other party to come close and devour the soul. The dead people will only be left with walking corpses. However, this flower can be used to refine pills. It is very effective for the cultivation of the soul. It will definitely have a miraculous effect when used to repair the problems in the Land of Inheritance. However, there is a strange poison in it. If it is not removed, it must … "
"Swish!
Swish! "Gu Zheng saw the information about the Land of Inheritance again and stopped. However, when he began to carefully remember it, the words on it quickly disappeared again. In just a blink of an eye, all of it disappeared again. Even the words that Gu Zheng remembered disappeared.
It was as if there was a force in the unseen world that was deliberately erasing these things.
"Pa!"
A slight shattering sound was heard. Gu Zheng looked in the direction of the sound. It was a book that turned into a pile of powder. In his eyes, a light flashed on the book beside it and followed in the footsteps of the previous one.
The information that he forcefully memorized had caused a backlash here.
Gu Zheng instantly rushed in front of the books again. He had already seen most of them. He had to hurry. Otherwise, these things would probably all be destroyed.
Accompanied by a very rhythmic dull sound, the books were destroyed one by one. Gu Zheng also skipped over the books one by one.
"Follow the last array formation. Do not go back the way you came. In the deepest part, there is a secret teleportation array that can directly send you back to the outermost area …"
When Gu Zheng saw a very ordinary message, it was the self-narration of a person who was lucky enough to enter the Land of Inheritance. However, Gu Zheng knew that he could not remember the content at all. He knew that if he forced himself to read the content, the book would probably be destroyed even faster. Basically, he would forget it after a glance.
However, the ring on his hand suddenly shot out a green light and directly hit the book. In the blink of an eye, the entire book was turned into ashes in his hand. However, this message was left in the air.
After a full three breaths, the green light dissipated. At the same time, all the books began to explode in an instant. Not a single one of the three floors was left. All the books were destroyed, leaving only the empty shelves.
However, the abnormality that happened inside did not alarm the outside. Therefore, Gu Zheng still stood in place and looked around in a daze.
The last message on the book was trying to tell him what it meant.
Looking at the ring on his hand, the huge crack on it almost split the ring in half. He was afraid that it would be completely destroyed if it was hit again.
"Ugh!"
At this moment, Gu Zheng's face flushed red and he spat out a mouthful of blood. The aura on his body had dropped to the late-stage Jin Xian.
"There is not much time left!"
Until now, two days had passed since Gu Zheng left. Based on the seven days, a third of the time had passed.
Thinking of this, Gu Zheng did not hesitate to take out a flying sword. At the same time, a ball of fire began to burn from inside, instantly triggering a reaction from the restriction outside.
"Bang!" The door at the bottom was instantly opened by someone.
However, before the night watchman could observe the situation inside, a figure with golden light rushed over.
He only had time to set up a defense in front of him. The other party rushed in front of him and a huge brute force pushed his body aside and rushed out.
However, Gu Zheng did not question him at all. That person was now unconscious and had almost no resistance. One more sword strike would take his life.
Two days later, the cautious Gu Zheng once again arrived at the teleportation point. The person guarding the teleportation point was nowhere to be seen, but the teleportation array was still operating.
At this time, the fog that filled the sky above the mountain had already disappeared.
As the familiar transmission formation began to light up, the moment it was about to be activated, a stone suddenly flew in from outside and interrupted Gu Zheng's transmission formation.
"We really caught a hidden traitor. My lord is really far-sighted." With a flattering voice, several people revealed themselves from the edge of a nearby mountain.
The other party had been hiding there, and Gu Zheng had not discovered them. What made Gu Zheng even more desperate was that the woman in leather clothes at the front had her hair combed simply behind her back, revealing her alluring figure. She was simply tempting, but she was an expert in the middle stage of the Zenith Heaven Realm.
Gu Zheng's palms were full of sweat. When he was thinking hard about how to escape, the woman who was approaching suddenly looked at Gu Zheng in shock.
Her pitch-black eyes were mixed with a hint of green as if she wanted to see through Gu Zheng.
"My lord, if we catch this traitor, we will definitely be able to interrogate more information. The explosion two days ago must be related to him." A huge person next to her looked at Gu Zheng ferociously as if he could not do anything to him.
Swoosh.
Gu Zheng's figure had just moved and instantly flew into the sky, while they just watched Gu Zheng leave. No one made a move, but no one was worried that he could escape.
The woman in leather clothes raised her hand, and a layer of black circle suddenly appeared on Gu Zheng's body in the distance. It shrank and instantly trapped Gu Zheng. A black line went from Gu Zheng's body to the woman's hand below.
When the woman pulled, Gu Zheng's figure obediently came down.
Feeling that his cultivation was completely sealed, Gu Zheng was discouraged. The other party was too strong. With just one move, he was trapped by the other party. His cultivation was probably heading towards the late stage of the Zenith Heaven Realm.
"Destroy the transmission formation. Let's go!"
The woman glanced at Gu Zheng and chuckled. There was a complicated look in her eyes, but there was an indescribable bitterness. Then, she coldly ordered the person next to her.
