When Gu Zheng saw the two of them flying to the side, he also flew in the same direction.
An hour later, following a final loud boom, the restriction outside one of the houses was broken.
Gu Zheng walked in and found that although the outside of the house was unremarkable, the decorations inside were very good. However, it was very empty, and there was nothing extra.
There was only a small jade platform in the middle of the Spirit Gathering Formation, and a black banner with black light flowing around it. There was nothing else.
It was as if the whole house was built for this thing.
After Gu Zheng saw that there were no restrictions, he approached the jade platform. On the flat surface of the jade platform, there were some words engraved.
"Xiu Qi, died … Only his magic treasure is intact … Returned to this place, taken from his back."
Gu Zheng skimmed through it. It recorded a human who had died in the resistance. He had made great contributions and left behind some relics, which was why the survivors had placed him here.
After Gu Zheng finished reading, he directly put away the ownerless item. These things were prepared for their descendants, but there were probably not many people who would come here.
Seeing that there was nothing else, Gu Zheng turned and left.
The grade of this magic treasure was not bad, and Gu Zheng could take it out.
An hour passed, and Gu Zheng collected two magic treasures that were not bad. At this time, he came in front of a two-story pavilion.
This house was very strange. Not only did it have an extra floor, but it also had an independent small courtyard. The structure of the house was obviously more exquisite, and there were many golden copper bells hanging under the eaves. As the breeze blew, they kept swaying, but there was no sound. It was obvious that the treatment was not ordinary.
Gu Zheng looked in front of the door, and a layer of green light suddenly appeared from the surface, blocking Gu Zheng's path.
He felt that the strength of this defense was not very strong, and he could break through it with a little effort.
Thinking of this, Gu Zheng's hand shook, and five jade bracelets jumped out from his wrist and flew into the sky.
Along with the flickering green light, five different lights fell from the sky. At the same time, a thick green shield covered the whole house.
However, Gu Zheng did not care, and only stubbornly defended. As long as there was enough time, he could break through it.
After the time it took for an incense stick to burn, the green shield in front of him began to flicker. It was obvious that it could not bear it.
Gu Zheng put away the jade bracelets in the air, and reached out his hand to slap it heavily. This time, the green shield finally turned into green light and dissipated.
At this time, a pleasant bell sound also entered Gu Zheng's ears.
Gu Zheng opened the door and walked into the small courtyard, and carefully looked at the pavilion. Suddenly, his heart moved.... He raised his hand, and saw a sword Qi shooting towards the door..
Before the Sword Qi landed, the restriction on the door took the initiative to condense a Wind Blade. Not only did it disperse the Sword Qi, it also shot towards Gu Zheng.
"Ding ling ling"
In the face of such a weak wind blade, even his protective spiritual qi could not disperse it, and he did not even think of blocking it. But at this time, the bells on the eaves suddenly rang rhythmically.
Gu Zheng did not care at all, and thought that it was caused by the shock wave. He still looked at the slightly complicated restriction in front of the door, trying to figure out how to break it.
But after a few breaths, Gu Zheng was observing the restriction, and wanted to break it without violence. Suddenly, he felt a little dizzy.
He felt that something was wrong. Those bells that should have gradually slowed down were now louder and louder. Layers of illusory sounds were constantly pouring into his mind, causing countless illusions to appear in front of his eyes.
Those illusions were like vortexes, constantly tearing at Gu Zheng, trying to pull him down completely. Gu Zheng's eyes gradually blurred.
But just as he was about to fall, a black light flashed in Gu Zheng's eyes, and his eyes regained clarity.
"Illusory Sound Copper Bells, I didn't expect to see them here." Gu Zheng looked at the bells around him, and the pleasant sounds appeared again. He couldn't help but click his tongue in praise.
He had only heard from Star Tyrant that this was a magic treasure that had once belonged to a Grand Immortal. Just the automatic interference had almost caused him to fall. Its power was truly extraordinary.
This thing was not just a little stronger than the previous silver bell. Perhaps any one of them could compare to that silver bell.
Gu Zheng's eyes were fixed on it. There were many ordinary bells, but only twelve of them were the real Illusory Sound Copper Bells. However, they were hidden and mixed together, making it impossible to distinguish them.
Gu Zheng also did not have a way to forcefully test them one by one. That was because they were connected to the entire room. They were part of the room's restriction.
This room's restriction was very powerful. This was also the reason why Gu Zheng had not done anything yet.
"Creak!"
Just as Gu Zheng was thinking, the door in front of him suddenly opened. He was stunned, but then he walked in without any hesitation.
Such an obvious hint indicated that someone had been here from the beginning to the end.
He walked into the room that was no different from before. However, in the middle position, although there was also a jade platform, there was a red key on top of it.
There was a black-clothed man standing to the side. His eyes were brimming with vigor as he looked at Gu Zheng.
"Dark one?" Gu Zheng said vigilantly. He didn't know what the other party was trying to do. However, the other party didn't seem to be surprised by his appearance here.
However, the other party gave him a familiar feeling. It was as if he had seen him somewhere before.
"Your speed is really fast. If you came a little later, I would have taken away these things." The dark one seemed to know Gu Zheng.
Gu Zheng didn't know if it was the group of dark ones he had encountered before. However, looking at the other party's attitude, he didn't have any malice towards him.
However, Gu Zheng didn't continue to speak. He didn't have anything to talk about with the other party. He also didn't know what the other party was doing here alone. What was the purpose of luring him here?
"Looking at your appearance just now, it seems that you really want the bell outside!" The dark one spoke again. "If you really want it, I can make the decision to give it to you. Don't worry about any conspiracy. This is also our current task, to win over some potential allies."
"What?" Gu Zheng was really shocked this time. They must know how precious this thing was. Why did they do this?
"Of course, it's not without a request. Now your leader has broken through the low-end periphery, and we are fighting fiercely with some enemies. This time, everyone came prepared. Someone has found a way to open the Black Dragon Palace, so I want you to help us when you are in the Black Dragon Palace." The dark one said in a deep voice and briefly explained the situation outside.
"You still have enemies? What's your purpose? What else can I help you with? I don't think I can help you. "Gu Zheng heard this and blurted out.
"Of course, I won't tell you the purpose. The enemy is of course the dark one. Their goal is the opposite of ours. They just want to betray us and stop us. What do you think? Now the main road outside is busy fighting. If you want, I can provide a hidden passage to let you directly pass through the periphery and reach the core. What do you think? "The dark one threw out another temptation.
"As long as you don't stop us, you should know that we used to be in the same camp. This condition shouldn't be a problem."
"I can't make the decision. I can only say that if it's me, I can ignore what you want to do. I just want to say it." Gu Zheng originally wanted to refuse directly, but he really wanted the bell, so he could only say so.
He couldn't make the decision for Star Tyrant.
"Haha, that's fine. We will naturally have people over there to persuade you." The dark one was taken aback. After a moment of silence, he suddenly laughed.
"Clap clap"
The dark one clapped his hands, and Gu Zheng saw that the restriction of the entire hall inexplicably disappeared.
"We built this place later. Of course, we know all the restrictions."
"In that case, I'll go first. You can have the rest of the things if you want. Anyway, we have taken most of them." The dark one didn't talk nonsense. His figure turned into a cloud of black mist and disappeared, leaving behind a red jade tube.
"Someone is chasing after you. You'd better leave here quickly."
Gu Zheng looked at the place where the dark one left. After a long time, he stepped forward and picked up the jade tube. He probed it with his Divine Sense and found that it was hidden in the Realm of Inheritance. It happened to be a route.
However, the dark one ignored these restrictions and left directly through the space, which was beyond Gu Zheng's expectations.
Looking at the red key left on the jade platform, it was not much different from an ordinary key. Gu Zheng directly grabbed it. After seeing that it was useless, he put it away first.
Gu Zheng arrived at the second floor. There were four jade platforms, but they were empty. The things on them had already been taken away. It seems like they were taken away by the dark one.
He jumped down from the second floor and looked at the bells above. After glancing at them, he raised his hand slightly and a suction force came from his palm. As the bells above rang loudly, twelve bells flew out from different positions and stopped in front of Gu Zheng.
Gu Zheng looked at the golden and translucent bells above with a smile on his face. Then, the twelve bells in front of him flew directly into Gu Zheng's mouth and he swallowed them.
Now was not the time to refine them, but he needed to slowly nourish them.
Feeling that it was almost time, Gu Zheng turned and walked towards the hill. This house was the last one close to the hill.
As for the dark one's last words, he didn't care at all. Or rather, he was surprised by the way he left and didn't hear what the dark one said at all.
Not long after Gu Zheng arrived, Xing Cai and Lan Yu's figures came out from a room and quickly flew towards Gu Zheng at a low altitude.
"It seems that you have a good harvest." Gu Zheng said to the smiling Xing Cai.
"Hehe, of course. Young Master Gu, you also have a good harvest, right? You seem to be in a good mood." Xing Cai said with a smile. Obviously, the harvest was very good. Even Lan Yu was the same.
"Why are there so many buildings behind? If I had known earlier, I would have come here." Lan Yu pointed at the hill. There were a lot more houses than here.
"No matter what, we still have to hurry." Gu Zheng knew that the place was empty. They would know when they arrived.
The three continued to rush forward. In fact, there were even more houses behind.
Along the way, they passed by those houses. None of them had any traces of destruction, but there was no aura coming out of them either. This made Xing Cai and Lan Yu disappointed.
However, they didn't know that it wasn't that these things didn't exist, but that they had been taken away.
Not long after, the canyon next to them became narrower and narrower, and a huge manor appeared in front of them.
The wall, which was at least 15 meters high, had completely dispelled their thoughts of exploring the place. None of them knew what was inside.
However, Gu Zheng knew that there were many precious herbs inside. More importantly, the teleportation array that led to the hidden alchemy room was also inside.
But now, there was a barrier in front of them. A layer of blue wave-like barrier blocked them from the outside. It was swaying, and some crystal-like white dots of light were swaying inside. It looked as if they were swimming in water.
It seemed that the dark one didn't come here. Compared to the battle strength they were lacking, they didn't need these precious herbs at all.
Inside the wall, there were blue crystal pillars erected at regular intervals. Countless runes could be held on top of them. The blue ripples didn't rise from them, but merged into the blue array in front of them.
Although these blue crystal pillars weren't the main body of the array, they were a kind of supplement that couldn't be lost. It could be said that the energy source of the entire barrier was provided by them.
Moreover, Gu Zheng felt a familiar fluctuation from them. It seemed that this was also the old man's design.
No wonder he didn't warn him. This barrier was similar to the last one they entered.
Since he could break the array outside, this one wouldn't be able to stop them.
"This array is similar to the one before. This time, use your puppets to break it." Gu Zheng said to Lan Yu after patrolling for a while.
"It's not that I don't want to, but my Five Elemental Puppets have already been exhausted. Facing such a large array, they are somewhat lacking." Lan Yu said with an awkward expression.
"I'm not deliberately not trying, but it's really the case. If you don't believe me, take a look!"
Lan Yu was afraid that Gu Zheng would misunderstand, so he hurriedly said. In the end, he released the five puppets.
Compared to before, the five puppets gave off a dispirited feeling. The spiritual qi on their bodies was also very dim. It was clear that they had been exhausted before. Without enough time to recover, they probably couldn't be used again.
"That's fine. I also have a set of Five Elemental Equipment. Although it can't be considered good enough, it's enough to use that divine ability." Gu Zheng said. He stretched out his hand and the five jade bracelets appeared in the air one by one.
Five colors flickered in the air, and the astonishing aura caused Lan Yu's expression to change.
"How are these ordinary goods? If they were ordinary, I would've thrown away the puppets I painstakingly refined." Lan Yu thought to himself, on the verge of tears.
How rich did he think he was? Compared to Gu Zheng, he couldn't compare at all.
"Is it still not enough?" Xing Cai asked curiously.
"It's enough, it's enough. Such a precious treasure can even increase the power of the formation by another level. It's much stronger than our set." Lan Yu hurriedly said.
"This is the chant for that formation. Although it's a bit cryptic, compared to Young Master's intelligence, you'll definitely understand it."
At the same time, he flipped his hand and a white jade tube was sent over.
After Gu Zheng received it, he immersed his spiritual sense into it. There were many cryptic chants inside, but some of them were very useful. For him, it wasn't too difficult.
Speaking of which, it was just using the power of the Five Elements to reverse it. Many formations could be used. The only difference was that there were some technical problems.
Withdrawing from the jade tube, Gu Zheng closed his eyes and began to carefully comprehend it.
On the other side, Xing Cai and Lan Yu automatically helped him guard the surroundings, although there were no enemies around.
Soon, Gu Zheng finished comprehending it.
Under Gu Zheng's command, the Five Elemental Jade Bracelets in the air soared into the sky and occupied a corner of the sky.
"Young Master Gu is really amazing. You know how to use it in such a short time. I'm ashamed of my inferiority." Lan Yu flattered.
"Of course. My Young Master is amazing. There are many things you don't know. Rely on him to ensure your safety." Xing Cai said proudly.
Gu Zheng didn't have the time to pay attention to them. In fact, not only did he learn this somewhat useless formation, he even supplemented it and gained a new understanding of the Five Elemental Jade Bracelets. It was really a pleasant surprise.
At this moment, the Five Elemental Jade Bracelets firmly occupied five positions in the sky, like a straight line.
It was different from what Lan Yu wanted to do. He wanted to use a different method, but the core was still the same.
As Gu Zheng cast the spell, the Five Elemental Jade Bracelets shone brightly. Runes of the same color as the bracelets revolved around them.
Soon, five rings of light like the sun appeared in the sky. Moreover, as the runes flew out, they continued to expand. One could faintly see the Five Elemental Jade Bracelets begin to rapidly rotate.
A terrifying aura was emitted from them. Xing Cai and Lan Yu glanced at each other and took a few steps back.
When the light balls were about the size of a huge millstone, Gu Zheng's hand suddenly changed.
The blue Jade Bracelet on the left suddenly emitted a ray of light. However, it didn't rush towards the barrier below. Instead, in the blink of an eye, it reached the green Jade Bracelet next to it. Then, the green Jade Bracelet emitted a ray of light and extended to the side.
In the blink of an eye, the Five Elemental Jade Bracelets were linked together by a thick pillar of light in the sky.
If one looked carefully, five different colored rays of light were constantly flowing within. Although it looked a little strange, it created a Five Elemental Circuit, causing the aura of the Five Elemental Jade Bracelets to suddenly double.
"This … this aura has already surpassed our previous battle." Lan Yu stuttered. It must be known that he and Bai Mei together couldn't produce such a powerful aura.
One could imagine how powerful the next attack would be.
Gu Zheng focused on controlling the Five Elemental Jade Bracelets. Because of his change, although the casting time was longer, the power had increased by a lot.
The aura of the Five Elemental Jade Bracelets suddenly increased. Five rays of light as thick as a tree shot out from them. It could be seen that there were five different rays of light condensed within.
When these rays of light were in the sky, they actually gradually turned into huge sharp swords. Like a violent storm, they struck the blue barrier below.
