The young man looked at the black and white pills in Gu Zheng's hand with burning eyes. Just as Gu Zheng thought that it might be the antidote, the light in the young man's eyes disappeared.
"The white pill can temporarily suppress the blood poison in his body, but it can't cure him. Of course, it's the same for us. The black pill is useless to us, but to ghosts, it's like a powerful lightning bead. It can greatly restrain the enemy and severely injure them."
The young man's words poured a bucket of cold water on Gu Zheng. It turned out that these were only incomplete pills.
However, Gu Zheng suddenly thought of something. After putting away the two pills, he took out a pill fragment that had fused together. Xing Cai wanted to throw it away, but Gu Zheng kept it. He felt that it might come in handy in the future.
"What about this? This is only a few of them fused together. "
As soon as he took it out, the young man's breathing quickened. However, before Gu Zheng could be happy, the young man's expression calmed down again.
"Although this failed, it's definitely not a problem for it to come in contact with the blood poison in your friend's body. Do you have a completely fused pill?" Although the young man was very calm, Gu Zheng could still understand his desire.
"No, Daoist Jiang was ambushed halfway while refining. Daoist Jiang asked us to take these out of the furnace." Gu Zheng shook his head and told the young man the truth.
The young man nodded and suddenly walked back, as if he couldn't accept it.
Gu Zheng looked at the young man's disappointed figure and knew how he was feeling. However, he could only apologize in his heart, but he still thanked him.
"Thank you!"
After saying that, Gu Zheng quickly went to Xing Cai's side. In this short period of time, Xing Cai's skin was slightly red, and a scorching aura was emitted from her body. Although she was unconscious, her body was twisting uncomfortably.
In this short period of time, the blood poison in her body seemed to have deepened. Gu Zheng quickly helped her up and wrapped the incomplete pill with his magic power and sent it into her mouth.
Seeing Xing Cai swallow the pill, Gu Zheng finally breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. This time, Xing Cai could be saved.
However, just to be safe, he swallowed one for himself.
In fact, he had secretly decided that even if Xing Cai became a ghost and he had to travel to the ends of the earth to find her, he would cure her.
Seeing the abnormalities on Xing Cai's body quickly dissipating, Gu Zheng didn't release the jade bracelet that imprisoned her. Seeing that it would take some time, Gu Zheng walked out.
At this moment, at the entrance, the Spirit Guard who had just gone out had returned. It was unknown if he had dealt with the four demonesses.
The situation below was still quite tense. The injured Ghosts only had to retreat, and with the blood mist around them, their injuries would quickly heal. On the other hand, the Puppets and the incredibly powerful Zombies were slowly being whittled away.
The zombies were still fine as they were originally from the dojo. As long as they retreated to the front of the dojo, a beam of light would also shoot out from the wall to heal them. Those puppets could only display their greatest abilities before they were beaten into mist and dissipated in the air.
However, the duration of the Great Blood Moon was the same as the Blood Moon. The loss of half a day was very small. It seemed that it would be easy to survive this time.
At this moment, Gu Zheng cast his gaze to the sky. The two figures were entangled back and forth in the air. It seemed that there wouldn't be any changes in the short term.
Gu Zheng didn't go down to help. To be honest, it didn't matter whether he was there or not. It wouldn't affect the overall situation at all.
After standing outside for a while, Gu Zheng felt that it was about time for Xing Cai to wake up. Only then did he walk into the hall.
I've done my best. He saw Xing Cai sitting on the edge of the wall. Although her body was still a little weak, her spirit had recovered. When she saw Gu Zheng coming over, she blushed and apologized to Gu Zheng in a low voice.
"I'm sorry, Young Master Gu. I've caused you trouble."
After recovering her consciousness, she clearly remembered what she had done before. She also knew how much trouble she had caused Gu Zheng in that situation. If it weren't for the puppet restraining most of the ghosts, the two of them wouldn't have been able to walk out of there.
"No one wanted to do that in that situation. But now that you've recovered, you can't just frame me." Gu Zheng joked. With a wave of his hand, the five jade bracelets returned to his hand and removed Xing Cai's shackles.
"Stop joking around, I know I was wrong!" Xing Cai stood up, glared at Gu Zheng, and continued.
"We've already come in. Can we leave after the battle is over?"
"Of course, but as you can see, I'm afraid we have to wait until the battle outside is over. Otherwise, we can only stay here." Gu Zheng pointed to the surroundings.
In this hall, only a small open space in front of them could be taken. The other places were all blocked by transparent barriers.
"Then we can only wait. It just so happens that I was beaten up badly by you just now. I need to recover." Xing Cai took out a pill and threw it into her mouth, then prepared to sit down again.
Gu Zheng smiled bitterly and didn't say anything. He walked straight to the side door, wanting to ask the young man some questions. It seemed that he was the only one in a good condition. At least he didn't need to be locked in here.
Just now, Gu Zheng didn't hold back at all. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to subdue Xing Cai.
At this time, the young man was already sitting on the side. A thin white beam of light fell from the roof, constantly washing away the black Qi on his body. It seemed to be reducing the blood poison in his body.
Gu Zheng didn't disturb him. He just looked inside curiously. After a while, Gu Zheng turned around and walked to the opposite side.
There was a side hall blocked there. Gu Zheng felt that there should be a place for the puppets.
When Gu Zheng looked inside, there were actually a few of those zombies. There were even two spirit talisman guards inside. Those few seemed to be seriously injured, and they were all quietly standing in place. There were black and white circles engraved on their bodies.
The entire side hall was very large, and it was almost filled with those circles. There were hundreds of them. It could be seen that there used to be a lot of them here. Now, the number was less than one-tenth of what it used to be. He also knew about the tragic state of the battle.
When he lived outside, there would be a battle every few days. He couldn't be negligent because the price of failure was death.
Gu Zheng looked for a while. Just as he was about to leave, he suddenly saw a black light flash from the black circles below. It made his body suddenly stop.
Almost at the same time, a trace of danger flashed in his heart.
Gu Zheng stared at one of the Spirit Talisman Guards because the black light had come from below.
As he stared, a black gas suddenly emerged from below and drilled into the Spirit Talisman's body.
The originally calm Spirit Talisman Guard's face began to twist in pain. A pair of golden eyes suddenly opened. The originally pitch-black eyes flashed with a large amount of red light.
At the same time, the four Spirit Talismans below her body suddenly flew to her side. The original yellow color also turned into a blood-red color.
It wasn't just her. Even the zombie next to her stood up. Its body was wrapped in a black fog. It screamed in pain, but when it reached Gu Zheng's side, it was only a faint sound that could be heard.
"Oh no, there is a problem." Although Gu Zheng didn't know why, he instinctively felt that something was wrong. He rushed out of the hall and wanted to inform Elder Gu, but he found that the two figures had disappeared. He didn't know where they were fighting.
Gu Zheng turned around and ran toward the youth. Seeing that the youth was still in the same state, he reached out and punched the shield in front of him.
"Little Brother, wake up. There is a problem."
"What's wrong?" This anxious voice also woke Xing Cai up. She asked curiously.
"There is something strange over there. I don't know what it is, but I have a bad feeling. I want to inform him." Gu Zheng turned his head and replied. However, his hand movements didn't change. Instead, he gradually increased his strength. Little ripples constantly spread out on the surface.
"There is an attack coming from inside!" Xing Cai quickly walked over. When she saw the Spirit Talisman that had broken free and was crazily attacking the surrounding walls, she couldn't help but be shocked.
Because of the shield, they couldn't feel any movement from outside. If Gu Zheng didn't check, no one would know.
"Wake up quickly." When Gu Zheng heard this, his hand movements became faster. However, he didn't dare to increase his strength. The defense inside wasn't very strong. The runes on the walls were linked together. It was likely that all the places were connected. If he broke it and caused a chain reaction, it would be terrible.
However, the youth inside seemed to be completely meditating. He really didn't hear anything outside. He didn't even notice that Gu Zheng was calling him outside.
Xing Cai saw that Gu Zheng couldn't wake the youth up. She walked up and volunteered.
"Let me try."
Gu Zheng saw this and moved aside. He really didn't have a good idea.
When Xing Cai came up, she didn't rashly try to test it. Instead, she carefully looked at the shield in front of her. It seemed like she was studying the equipment. After a full ten breaths, she let out a breath with confidence.
She raised her right hand and her index finger turned into a blue ice crystal. She spun it in the air and a blue cold air floated out from behind her index finger.
After a few rounds, a small cloud of cold air had already filled the air. At this time, Xing Cai quickly pointed at the shield in front of her. A small blue dot was imprinted on it. Then, she withdrew her finger and it returned to its original state.
Following closely behind, the blue frost instantly formed a straight line in mid-air and rushed towards the blue light spot.
In Gu Zheng's view, after the frost passed through the blue dot, it strangely passed through the shield and appeared on the other side. However, the original blue color had turned light blue. The only thing that didn't change was that it was still emitting a cold aura.
When all the frost passed through, it continued to rush towards the figure on the other side.
The youth, who was in seclusion, suddenly felt a cold air and subconsciously opened his eyes. A cloud of blue mist dissipated in front of his eyes. He also saw two figures in front of him waving at him. It seemed like they had something to say to him.
Feeling the cold aura next to him and the woman who had just woken up, he knew that they had deliberately woken him up.
The youth was a bit puzzled, but he still walked forward and asked, "What is it?"
"Thank the heavens, you're finally awake. The puppets on the other side have undergone a huge change. They're randomly attacking the surroundings." Xing Cai hurriedly said.
"What change? That's where they're resting. Under normal circumstances, they can't move without Elder Gu's orders. "The youth was also puzzled when he saw the anxious expression on their faces.
Gu Zheng pointed at the air and a clear image appeared in front of the youth.
"How could this be?!" The youth's expression changed drastically when he saw the image.
At this moment, half of the room had been destroyed by the puppets. The defense of the entire room had become extremely dim. It seemed like it would be completely destroyed soon.
"I noticed it just now, but I couldn't wake you up no matter what I did. I don't know where Elder Gu is now. What's wrong with them?" Gu Zheng hurriedly asked.
"They've obviously been poisoned by the blood poison. However, the defense here is good. How could this happen? It's over. Elder Gu isn't here, and we can't get out. When the puppets completely destroy the defense system, the entire dojo's defense system will collapse," the youth said anxiously, but there was nothing he could do.
"After persevering for so many years, are we finally going to fail this time?"
"Is there anything we can do? Perhaps we can salvage the situation? "Gu Zheng couldn't help but ask when he saw the other party's despondent look.
"There's nothing you can do. Oh right, quickly give me a few white pills. Once the defense is gone, they'll be able to break free. With them, they can temporarily regain their consciousness. Perhaps we can wait until Elder Gu returns." The youth said helplessly. It seemed that everything could only be done after Elder Gu returned.
Gu Zheng didn't blame him. Elder Gu was probably in charge of everything here. How could these people have their own opinions? However, he still poured out a few white pills and gave one to each of them.
This thing would probably be useless once they left this place. He didn't feel the pinch at all.
However, something happened that made Gu Zheng a little puzzled. Because of the obstruction, they couldn't pass the pills. When the other party saw Gu Zheng standing there in a daze, he also realized the problem.
"This is bad. We can only wait for the defense to collapse automatically." The youth looked back at his companions helplessly.
"Zizi!"
Just as he finished speaking, the shield in front of him suddenly flashed.
Not only here, but the entire dojo also flickered. At this time, in the mirror image in the air, it could be seen that almost every part of the building had been destroyed by the other party. Now, they were smashing towards the surrounding walls.
Every time, a faint light would be produced on the walls. That was the last resistance of the runes on the walls. However, it was completely destroyed after a few hits.
At this time, the entire dojo started to flicker rapidly. Everyone knew that something was wrong. Unfortunately, no one inside could do anything about it.
After a few breaths of time, the entire dojo lit up for the last time. Then, all the lights were quietly extinguished.
At the same time, the ghosts that were trapped behind him let out inexplicable roars that sounded like wild beasts.
"Fellow Daoist, help me!" The youth grabbed at the air, and half of the white pills in Gu Zheng's hand flew away.
Gu Zheng understood the other party's intention and rushed inside. He didn't know who was in front of him, but they were still struggling bitterly. As if they knew the current emergency situation, even if two people rushed over, they still tried their best to control their bodies. Even if their bodies were trembling violently, they actually stopped in their tracks and didn't attack.
This brought them great convenience. Gu Zheng also didn't want to give up such a good opportunity. He pointed at the four people beside him and flicked his finger. One white pill after another accurately shot into their mouths.
It was the same for the other party. In almost an instant, three pills were swallowed by the other party. He also ate one at the same time.
When the pills entered their mouths, their bodies stopped trembling. Waves of stinky black gas rose from their heads. At the same time, they started to retch at the same time. Clumps of black blood appeared on the ground.
Each of them vomited more than ten mouthfuls of blood before gradually stopping. Their originally weak bodies were now emitting waves of tyrannical aura.
The seven of them looked at Gu Zheng at the same time. They naturally knew who brought these things.
"Seniors, these are some medicinal pills. Please take them quickly." Xing Cai took out a few high quality medicinal pills and handed them over.
Those people didn't hesitate and swallowed them one after another.
After a long time, all the supplements had been used up.
"Haha, I'm finally out. Damn Gu Xiyu, this time I see that you still have the strength to stop me. I'm going to turn all of you into ghosts and be controlled by me forever. I'll let you have a taste of abuse."
Just as Gu Zheng was about to speak, a thunderous roar suddenly sounded in the sky. At the same time, the wall behind them exploded and turned into countless meteors that swept towards them.
This kind of attack was really not enough for these people. Among them, an old man in a green robe stretched out his hand and a green light curtain suddenly appeared in front of him.
When the stones bombarded the light curtain, they were all shattered by the sharp green light. A large cloud of smoke rose in front of them.
"Ka!"
A black shadow darted out of the green light screen. Before anyone could react, the shadow had already rushed out of the side hall and disappeared in front of everyone's eyes.
"Not good! He rushed out. "The young man's face changed and said to everyone. His figure was about to chase outside.
"Don't go. Even if all of us go, we can't stop him. Even if he's only left with a wisp of his soul, we can't stop him." One of the black-robed Taoist who looked steady said to stop the others from chasing.
"Lord Priest is right. We can't stop him at all. Although we've recovered, in the end, we'll return to being neither human nor ghost. It seems that this is our final battle. We must break the seal and let the elder leave here." Beside the black-robed Priest, a red-robed old man said.
Gu Zheng noticed that these people were not only the peak of Jin Xian, but also seemed to have a high status. It was very likely that the last remaining high-ranking people were all wearing different colored Taoist robes. Of course, the black-robed Priest was the leader.
Even this young man was only wearing an ordinary Taoist robe with some emblems. It was obviously different from the noble robes.
"Could it be that the reason why you're here and haven't left is because the way out is sealed?" Xing Cai, who was silent at the side, heard their conversation and suddenly said at this moment.
