"Buzz!"
A pure white jade ruler suddenly appeared in front of the cauldron, blocking the huge golden sword.
As the white and golden lights exploded in the air, the sword that had lost most of its momentum was unable to break through the jade ruler's defense and dissipated in the air.
At this time, the Daoist took out a sparkling and translucent horsetail whisk and swung it up. A white light pillar the size of a bowl was emitted from it, forcing Gu Zheng to somersault in the air and leave the range of the cauldron.
Although the Daoist looked crazy, his strength was not to be underestimated. Gu Zheng was a little careless.
"Get out of my way, or I will kill you all, kill you all!" The Daoist looked at Gu Zheng with his scarlet eyes and roared like a wild beast in the air.
Gu Zheng stabbed the sword in his hand into the ground. After hearing the other party's threat, he did not take it to heart.
So what if he was strong? This time, he would definitely teach the other party a lesson. He even dared to threaten him.
The old man held the horsetail whisk in one hand and the jade ruler in the other. His eyes were fixed on Gu Zheng. His small figure wanted to protect the huge cauldron behind him.
Gu Zheng laughed and his whole body shook. A few identical phantoms appeared beside him. Everyone's aura and appearance were exactly the same.
They waved their hands in unison and a golden sword appeared in their hands. At the same time, they threw the golden swords forward. The swords shook in the air at almost the same time. Then, they turned into golden dragons that were ten zhang long and roamed in the sky.
Those golden dragons rushed in all directions. It seemed like they wanted to surround the cauldron. Gu Zheng and the others also quickly went around from the side.
The Daoist's face turned ugly. However, he still forced out a mouthful of blood and sprinkled it on the horsetail whisk in front of him. The horsetail whisk slowly flew up by itself. The white strands in the middle were constantly wriggling. The white light on the horsetail whisk was so dense that the changes inside could not be seen.
At the same time, a few talismans that were filled with fierce aura were taken out by the Daoist. They also spat out a mouthful of blood, causing the talismans to be filled with a violent aura.
By the time Zhang Xuan was done, the golden dragon had already occupied the four corners of the room. Following which, with a thought, all of the illusory figures below, except for Zhang Xuan himself, charged forward.
The golden dragon in the sky also circled around and opened its huge mouth, spitting out a golden ball of light that was as large as a millstone.
When they were in midair, all the golden balls exploded one after another, turning into a rain of arrows that filled the sky, rushing towards the pill furnace in the middle from all directions.
Attacks from all directions were bound to bring them to their knees.
At this moment, the Daoist's horsetail whisk in the air let out a muffled sound. Countless white threads splashed out from it and rushed towards the rain of arrows. The endless white threads collided with the rain of arrows almost as soon as they appeared.
In an instant, countless brilliant fireworks rang out in the air. Not a single arrow could break through this layer of defense constructed by the white silk.
As the talisman was thrown out by the Daoist, streams of light landed on the clones of Gu Zheng. As soon as they landed on the ground, soldiers clad in full armor and holding sharp blades appeared in front of them, blocking their way.
At the same time, a white river dragon jumped out from the white light and rushed towards the golden dragon in the sky.
In almost an instant, the illusory golden dragon was bitten into a ball of golden light by the other party without any resistance. Then, it continued to pounce on another golden dragon.
This series of attacks seemed to be long, but in fact, it was completed in almost an instant. The other party had perfectly blocked Gu Zheng's attack from all directions.
The Daoist moved and a red wooden sword suddenly appeared in his hand. He rushed towards Gu Zheng.
He knew that if he didn't get rid of Gu Zheng, he wouldn't be able to continue refining pills. As for the two people hiding in the distance, they wouldn't be of any use.
How could Gu Zheng not know that the Daoist was filled with killing intent?
However, he sneered in his heart and retreated backward, as if he didn't want to meet the Daoist head-on.
At this time, above the alchemy cauldron, the white flood dragon had already destroyed all the golden dragon phantoms around it, and the white light had also entered its body, causing its body to expand by 30%.
At this moment, it let out a final roar and rushed towards the golden dragon that hadn't moved since the beginning.
Meanwhile, the golden dragon also let loose a thunderous roar before turning around and running away.
When the flood dragon saw that the other party was about to run, it thought that the other party was afraid of it and followed closely behind.
However, it didn't know that it was already far away from the pill furnace.
Gu Zheng's illusory figure below was the same. As they fought and retreated, they were already far away from the pill furnace.
"Clang clang clang clang"
On the other side, Gu Zheng and the Daoist's figures were constantly flashing in the air. The other party's wooden sword was made of an unknown material, but it was surprisingly hard.
Moreover, every time they collided, there would be a peaceful aura that would gradually reduce the killing intent in his heart, as if the other party was his elder.
After separating again, Gu Zheng's lips curled into a cold smile and directly dodged the other party's attack.
His body floated in the air and made a strange gesture.
This made the Daoist suddenly shocked. Although he was fighting with Gu Zheng and wanted to kill the other party, he was also constantly paying attention to the situation behind him. He was naturally aware of those little tricks, but he didn't ask.
He was conceited that no one could hurt his things here. Even the two people in the distance were constantly paying attention. If the other party wanted to come up, he still had a backup plan.
Just as he was puzzled, he suddenly felt a fluctuation behind him. When he turned his head to look, he couldn't help but turn pale with fright.
Below the pill furnace, the originally normal ground suddenly emitted a large amount of golden light. Following that, a golden giant sword shot out from below and hit the bottom left of the pill furnace.
"Clang!" A loud sound reverberated through the entire sky.
The old man who was just about to move was stunned and his body suddenly stiffened in the air. He could only watch as the pill furnace suffered a heavy blow and was directly sent flying.
With that reverberating sound, it fell from the sky in the distance, and then fell heavily, rolling on the ground. A trail of smoke exploded under its body, constantly rising and disappearing.
The rune formation engraved on the ground was actually forcefully destroyed by the pill furnace.
In other words, even if the pill furnace was placed on the ground again, without the help of the formation, it would not be able to continue refining.
It could be said that Gu Zheng had successfully destroyed the other party's plan to refine pills. This was also Gu Zheng's plan from the beginning to let the other party taste the taste of despair.
At this moment, the entire sky was silent. The flood dragon that was chasing after Gu Zheng and the paper soldier seemed to be frozen in place, not moving at all.
There was only the sound of the surging earth fire and the aftershocks from the pill furnace.
However, the pill furnace was also an extraordinary item. Even after suffering Gu Zheng's deliberate attack, it didn't seem to be damaged in the slightest. Its surface, which had been flickering with golden patterns, had now been restored to its original state.
It was just that the earth fire had been removed from the furnace. With this distraction, the pills inside were most likely wasted. Even the clouds in the sky had begun to dissipate.
"No! My pills, my pills, the pills that I worked so hard to refine. "The Daoist's face was lifeless as he muttered to himself.
His tone was filled with despair, as if everything in his life had disappeared.
"Why, why, you want to destroy it, why!" The Daoist turned his head and looked at Gu Zheng with a crazed expression, as if questioning him.
"You should ask yourself, why did you lock us outside? We almost died outside!" Gu Zheng retorted without holding back.
"Then you can just die outside. Why did you come in and ruin my plan? Why!" The Daoist didn't care about Gu Zheng at all and howled like a wild beast.
When Gu Zheng heard this, he was also shocked by the Daoist's train of thought. It was really rare to see such a shameless person in the world.
The Daoist was still crazily questioning Gu Zheng. His eyes were blood-red and seemed to have reached the edge of madness.
Suddenly, the Daoist stretched out his hand. Everything outside turned into a ball of light and returned to his palm. Then, he looked at Gu Zheng carefully.
His eyes were clear, as if he had regained his consciousness. However, they were filled with hatred.
"I, Daoist Jiang, have been preparing for this my entire life. I wanted to save her, but I didn't expect to be destroyed at this moment. It doesn't matter if it's fate or fate, since my pills have been destroyed." At this moment, Daoist Jiang suddenly sighed. His eyes turned red again as he roared at Gu Zheng.
"Since that is the case, I want all of you to be buried with me. All of you will die together with the hope of my entire life. All of you will die together …"
Daoist Jiang's body suddenly emitted a strong aura. At the same time, he took out a blood-red pill and swallowed it.
When Gu Zheng saw this, a bad feeling rose in his heart. Although that thing disappeared in a flash, he felt an evil aura from it.
"Haha, even if I die, you will still have to accompany me." Jiang Daoist Jiang laughed.
At the same time, his aura became even more violent. His loose Daoist robe began to flutter under the strong wind coming out of his body.
"Young Master Gu, the other party actually swallowed the Hidden Blood Pill. At the cost of his soul and all of his flesh and blood, for a certain period of time, it can allow him to display strength that is several times stronger than before. However, after the time has passed, he will still die." Lan Yu anxiously shouted from behind.
Gu Zheng watched as the Daoist Jiang grew crazily. Some drops of blood had already seeped out of his skin. He looked like a blood man. His body even grew a little taller.
That pair of blood-red eyes became redder and redder. Specks of red light emerged from them. Even his pupils could no longer be seen. His entire face was ferocious and terrifying, like a terrifying evil spirit. Layers of blood-red mist rose from his body. A gloomy and cold aura was constantly emitted from his body.
"I want you to die, all of you die!" The Daoist Jiang suddenly shouted again. A red ball of light shot out from his hand and directly shot behind him, blocking the only way out. In the next instant, his figure disappeared from where he stood.
Gu Zheng was greatly alarmed. His vision blurred and he saw a blood-red figure appear in front of him.
Before he realized what was going on, he heard the sound of wind whistling. Gu Zheng subconsciously raised an arm in front of him to block. Then, he saw a fist appear in front of him.
Bang!
Gu Zheng felt a huge force hit his arm. His arm suddenly hurt. He couldn't block the opponent's strength at all. Then, his arm was pushed back and concentrated on his shoulder. At the same time, his lower palm struck his abdomen.
Without exception, Gu Zheng was sent flying. He crossed a large space and crashed heavily into the wall beside him, embedding himself in it.
In the next instant, Gu Zheng ignored the pain in his body and instantly shot out from inside.
A blood-red pillar of light brushed past his head and smashed into the wall behind him.
"Rumble!" A loud sound was heard.
That sturdy wall suddenly burst open. Pieces of gravel of different sizes fell from above. A round hole that was at least five feet in size appeared on top of it.
This made Gu Zheng feel very fortunate. He naturally knew the sturdiness of this wall. He definitely couldn't compare to it.
The opponent's strength was comparable to a Grand Heavenly Immortal. From a certain point of view, the opponent was even stronger than that puppet.
However, when he thought about the price of sacrificing his life for the shortest time possible, it wasn't unimaginable.
These thoughts flashed through Gu Zheng's mind. He was still falling in mid-air.
However, before the smoke of the explosion could disperse, a red figure attacked from afar again.
The speed was so fast that even though Gu Zheng was paying attention to the opponent, he couldn't keep up with the opponent's speed. In the next instant, the opponent's legs appeared in front of Gu Zheng's eyes.
Gu Zheng didn't have time to make any extra movements. He only had time to raise his arms and cross them in front of him. Just as he finished all this, the opponent's heavy whip leg crashed into his arms.
"Bang!"
Fortunately, Gu Zheng covered his arms with a layer of black gas, which greatly reduced the damage he suffered.
Even so, he still felt pain coming from his arms. His entire body was like a bird that had lost control. He drew a diagonal line in the air and flew into the distance.
"Ah!"
Gu Zheng couldn't suppress the pain coming from his mouth. His face was even more painful. Of course, all of this was deliberately faked so that the opponent would think that he was in great pain.
As expected, as he flew backward, Gu Zheng saw the Daoist who was boiling with blood Qi. The bloody light on the opponent's body flashed a few times as if he was excited.
However, in mid-air, Gu Zheng also controlled his body and drew out another weapon. Similarly, a strong aura burst out from his body as if he was going to risk his life. Countless golden lights surged out from his body. His aura was not inferior to the opponent's.
Gu Zheng immediately raised his sword and attacked the opponent. The golden sword in his hand burst out with a bright light. He waved it forward, and beams of golden light shot out from the sword. Hundreds of beams rushed toward the Daoist in the distance.
The daoist seemed to grin savagely. Then, without dodging, he attacked Gu Zheng. The powerful sword lights were reduced to dust by the daoist's casual slap. They couldn't harm the daoist at all.
When he arrived in front of Gu Zheng, he directly stretched out his fist and punched at Gu Zheng. A sonic boom sounded in the air. A large wave of air burst out from the fist. He didn't care about the opponent's weapon at all.
"Clank!"
The bloody fist hit the blade of the sword. The collision of the two actually made a sound of metal clashing.
The bloody light and golden light exploded. Gu Zheng's figure flew out from the inside again.
A trace of blood flowed out from Gu Zheng's mouth. However, before he could recover, the Daoist's bloody figure rushed up again. He seemed to be very happy to see the opponent in such a miserable state. He raised his fist and punched the air again.
Gu Zheng did not dodge. Instead, he brandished his sword and clashed head-on with his opponent.
This time was no exception. After the two collided, Gu Zheng's figure flew out again. His face was even paler.
The Daoist didn't give Gu Zheng any chance to breathe. He didn't wait for Gu Zheng to stabilize his body and went up again.
In just a dozen breaths, Gu Zheng and the old man had fought countless times. The Daoist's fist was swinging faster and faster. The sound of the collision in the air was almost continuous.
Some of the aftershocks fell in the surroundings. The ground and the surroundings were full of holes.
At this time, Xing Cai and Lan Yu, who were hiding behind the alchemy furnace, looked at the sky worriedly. They secretly hid here when they were fighting.
However, there was nothing they could do. The opponent's strength was beyond their imagination. The Daoist wasn't like the puppets. He didn't have the ability to think.
The opponent was clearly teasing Gu Zheng. Each time, Gu Zheng was in great danger. He felt like he was going to be killed.
"What do I do? What do I do? I still need a bit more time." At this time, the pearl in Xing Cai's hand was actually turning into a pool of blue liquid. The surrounding set was emitting a hazy blue light. It was slowly repairing the damaged part.
Xing Cai had actually sacrificed most of the weapon's power and sacrificed the rest to forcibly repair that part. In other words, the set would be completely destroyed after this.
"I'll buy some time for Young Master Gu," Lan Yu said through gritted teeth.
At the same time, the Five Elemental Puppets were thrown out again. After a period of rest, they were slightly better than before. They appeared and quickly rushed to the outside of the ball of earth fire.
The fire elemental puppet stood at the very front. The other puppets stood a little further away. It looked very awkward.
Only Lan Yu knew that below the puppets was the corresponding position of the Five Elemental Formation. Although it was already damaged and only a few damaged veins were left, it could still reduce Lan Yu's consumption and increase the power of the puppets.
After all the preparations were complete, Lan Yu gave them one last order. Then, he forcibly cut off the connection with the five puppets.
After doing all this, Lan Yu's face became deathly pale. Strands of blood flowed out from the corner of his mouth.
If he hadn't done this, the opponent would have followed his aura and directly captured him and Xing Cai.
Right now, the two of them didn't have the strength to stand against the opponent.
Without Lan Yu's orders, the five puppets had already started preparing their magic. They couldn't stop themselves. The four rays of light behind them shone brightly. Even the puppets' bodies started to crack. Things that were destined to be damaged were even less cherished.
At this moment, the four rays of light entered the body of the puppet at the very front. The puppet's body emitted a soaring flame.
In the next moment, its body moved and it charged into the earth fire in a suicidal manner.
"Boom!"
The originally raging fire was now like water splashed on oil. In an instant, a huge tongue of fire shot up from below.
The huge situation even attracted Daoist Jiang's attention. He stopped his attack and gave Gu Zheng a chance to catch his breath.
