The black-robed old man carefully sized up Xing Cai, then looked at Gu Zheng and said, "Of course. Otherwise, why would we be trapped here? The only teleportation array is in the north, but it's blocked by that Goblin. If we don't destroy the other party's last artifact, none of us can pass through. So, I'm sorry, your wish has come to nothing."
"Thank you for the pills you brought from the outside. It seems that Jiang Qiguo, who used a secret technique to hide, still couldn't escape this calamity. I know that you want to leave this place, but as I said just now, if you want to go out, you must destroy the artifact guarding this place. Otherwise, no one will be able to leave."
Gu Zheng and Xing Cai looked at each other. They didn't expect that coming here with so much effort would end up like this.
However, when they were waiting for the blood moon, Gu Zheng and Xing Cai secretly discussed why the other party didn't leave after besieging this place for so many years. It was impossible for them to say that they were guarding the entrance.
So that was the case after hearing this, and they weren't too disappointed.
Counter soldiers with arms and water with an earth weir.
"Let's go out and talk. Elder Gu is probably coming back. Anyway, this time, the heavens have given us a chance to fight with our backs against the wall. We will definitely be able to completely defeat the other party." Another person wearing a red Daoist robe said encouragingly.
Although their bodies were still weak at this time.
The group hurriedly walked out of the hall. Although there was no one guarding the dojo now, the guards and puppets outside were still attacking the ghosts, so there was no need to worry for the time being.
"This time, after exhausting their magic power, I'm afraid they won't be able to replenish it." The young man on the side looked ahead and sighed.
As for the demonized guards from before, when the dojo lost its defense, they broke the wall and left. No one knew where they went.
Everyone heard his voice, but they ignored it. Instead, they stood quietly at the door and looked into the distance.
Soon, a beautiful figure appeared in the distance. In the next moment, she accelerated and arrived in front of them.
At the same time, a black shadow behind her caught up. It was the Ghost General who fought with her just now.
The Ghost General didn't chase after them. After looking around, it suddenly let out a sharp whistle. The ghosts that were fighting the puppets seemed to have heard some kind of order and immediately left the battle and retreated.
"Haha, all of you are going to die this time. Once I get that thing, all of this is nothing. I will definitely be able to break through the void and become a Quasi-Sage. I want to see how you will die!" The Ghost General placed his weapon beside him and shouted at Elder Gu.
After he finished speaking, his entire body emitted a ghostly aura. At the same time, he stretched out his hand toward the sky. An extremely dense black aura was emitted from his palm. It instantly soared into the sky and entered the blood moon.
"I'll be waiting for you! Haha. "After doing all this, the Ghost General laughed again.
The army of ghosts below began to retreat towards the north, quickly disappearing from everyone's sight.
"What are they doing? I can feel that the blood moon in the sky has become much smaller. It seems to have been weakened," Xing Cai asked in confusion.
"Although it has been weakened, it has been permanently solidified." Elder Gu did not have any joy on his face. Instead, he became even more worried.
He wasn't the only one. Except for Gu Zheng and Xing Cai, everyone else had the same expression.
"The moon has been solidified. It will always look like a blood moon. Even if we want to rest for a while, we won't be able to hold on until the blood moon passes," Elder Gu explained.
This time, Xing Cai was dumbfounded. No wonder the other party retreated in such an imposing manner. It turned out that the other party would always be in this state.
"This is not good. The other party actually escaped. If I had known earlier, I would have destroyed the last trace of his soul," Elder Gu said with some annoyance.
"Elder, don't blame yourself. If it wasn't for the other party providing us with so much energy, I'm afraid all of us would have died long ago. How could we have held on until now? At that time, Lord Black Dragon would have been completely hopeless," the black-robed priest at the side immediately said.
"I'm just saying. I naturally know the severity of the matter. However, since he has escaped, it's time to end things with them," Elder Gu said with a firm expression.
After saying that, he turned his head to the side and looked at Gu Zheng with burning eyes. The moment he opened his mouth, he was startled.
"I feel a little familiar with you!"
Gu Zheng's heart suddenly skipped a beat. She couldn't have known about the matter in the illusion, right?
"Maybe it's an illusion. After all, this is the first time we've met," Gu Zheng's expression did not change as he replied directly.
"Thanks to the things you brought, with their help, our chances of leaving this time will be much higher. After all, the other party's spiritual weapon has been depleted for such a long time and is in its lowest state," Elder Gu thanked Gu Zheng.
"I wonder if you can give me a few more pills in case I don't need them. However, I have a presumptuous question. I wonder if I can ask."
"Of course, you know the origin of these things. I'll give them all to you!" Gu Zheng took out the bottles containing the pills as well as a few fused pills and handed them all over. Then he said, "Don't worry.
"If you have any questions, feel free to ask."
"On the way here, did you plunder some things? I feel that I have something sealed on me." On the other side, Elder Gu took away most of the pills and left behind two black and white pills for Gu Zheng.
Gu Zheng hesitated for a moment. Then, he took out all the things he had gathered. He even took out the Illusory Copper Bell.
Now it seemed that if he did not want to be forcefully sent away, he would really need Elder Gu's help.
Therefore, the stronger she was, the better.
It was a pity. If he had rescued Zi Yi before and the dojo had not been destroyed, Gu Zheng would have really wanted to stay here and wait for the time to come before being forcefully sent out.
"Good things are really bad. However, I only need this one." When Elder Gu saw this, he clicked his tongue and sighed. He reached into the box and took out the red key.
"This is yours? This set of bells is also yours right? "Gu Zheng thought of the unique pavilion and asked.
"I don't want the bells. Your fate is yours. Besides, I don't need it. This set of keys is enough. Let's go back now and prepare to fight to the death with the other party." Elder Gu reached out and took away the key that Gu Zheng did not understand.
Initially, Gu Zheng thought that it was the key to some treasure room. He did not expect it to be her luggage. It was indeed unexpected.
However, that huge room was her place. It was no wonder that there was a magic weapon guarding it.
Since Elder Gu was so generous, Gu Zheng did not say anything. Such a good thing was given to him by Elder Gu. He would not pretend to reject it.
Soon, the group of them walked in and arrived at the darkest room that had been destroyed.
At this moment, the white jade on the ground had all turned into dust. The formation engraved on it had already lost its effect.
Gu Zheng looked at the body that was floating in the air. He did not expect her to be in the form of a spirit when she fought the Ghost General.
"Looks like the other party had long seen through the array here and had been patient enough to wait for a day for my energy to be almost depleted. However, man's plans are better than heaven's plans. You would never have imagined that someone would actually bring my things here when the Immortal Abode opened." Elder Gu muttered to himself as he looked at the severely damaged array.
She stood there for the time it took for an incense stick to burn. Then, she turned around and went into her body.
A dazzling white light was emitted from her body. Soon, her entire body was wrapped up. It was like a cocoon hanging in the air. Gu Zheng could not see anything from the outside.
"How long can this pill last? It would be troublesome if the pill dissipates halfway." Xing Cai stood at the back and whispered to the young man.
"Don't worry. According to Dao Master Jiang's prediction, it should last for at least half a month." The young man whispered back.
Gu Zheng and the others stood at the front and waited quietly.
Half a day passed. As the light in front of them weakened, Elder Gu's figure reappeared in front of everyone.
However, Gu Zheng looked up with a face of shock, but the people beside him seemed to have already known.
A white feather gauze covered the outside. Inside, a white robe made of silk could be vaguely seen. Strands of golden silk were embellished with an eight trigrams pattern. A red key hung on her white neck. Together with her red lips and moon-like eyes, she looked beautiful.
However, her face was pale, and there was a faint wisp of black Qi shrouding her body, which greatly reduced her charm.
"Don't be surprised. My body is already dead. My current appearance is due to the strange magic treasure of the other party. Otherwise, I would have reincarnated."
Seeing Gu Zheng's expression, Elder Gu explained indifferently. It was as if she did not care about her own life and death. Then, she said to everyone below.
"Everyone, take a rest. We will set off in one day."
One day later, the dao hall behind them collapsed. Everything inside was completely destroyed. Under Elder Gu's lead, they set off toward the north under the red light of the blood moon.
Although there were not many of them, they were like an army.
At the front were the puppets that had not dissipated. Following them were the strong soldiers. Behind them were the talisman guards. In the middle were Elder Gu, Gu Zheng, and the others.
As they advanced, Gu Zheng thought that if he had known the effect of this pill, he would have given it to Duan Chen.
Duan Chen had been poisoned too deeply. If he had not been in the periphery, his consciousness would have been destroyed. Unfortunately, Duan Chen was not here now.
This time, all of them were determined to succeed or die trying. There was no way out.
Their goal was the teleportation formation that was sealed by the other party. They wanted to break it and let Elder Gu leave this place.
As for them, they did not have any hope.
Because after the spirit treasure was destroyed, they could only rely on it to survive. In the end, they would die.
Half a day passed. The further they went, the more oppressive the air became. Although the surroundings were the same, there seemed to be an invisible pressure around them. It made Gu Zheng feel extremely depressed.
Soon, as they advanced, a huge black screen appeared in the distance. It was like a big black bowl on the ground. Clouds of black gas kept coming out of it. It was like a burning mountain of black flames.
In front of this black gas, rows of scattered ghosts wandered casually. Compared to before, their numbers seemed to have increased by a lot. Gu Zheng even saw the talisman guards that had been demonized before. They were quietly waiting at the back.
No wonder the other party retreated here. The longer they delayed, the stronger they would be.
There were no obstacles in the middle. It was just a plain. When Elder Gu was still a little distance away, the group stopped. He led them to the front and looked at the huge ghosts in front of them.
Because of their arrival, the ghosts started to squirm uneasily. They wanted to rush over, but they seemed to have been given a death order. They just stayed nearby and kept roaring.
A black shadow appeared in front of them. It was the body of the Ghost General that was occupied by the last trace of the Goblin's soul. At this time, although there was no more black gas on his body, he gave Gu Zheng an even more terrifying feeling. The other party had definitely reached the Daluo Realm.
However, looking at Elder Gu's calm face, he did not seem to be worried at all. This made Gu Zheng's heart calm down.
"Are you guys lining up to die? As long as you hand over that thing, I will allow you to live. You can also get rid of that half-dead body. Think about it. "The Ghost General laughed and shouted at them.
"Let's not talk nonsense. You traitors, when the Black Dragon returns, none of you will be able to escape." Elder Gu's expression did not change. He just looked at the other party coldly.
"You're daydreaming. You can't even leave this place. How can you talk about returning? Since you don't want to give up, then don't wait for death! "The Ghost General sneered.
As soon as his voice fell, his body emitted black gas. At the same time, the blood moon in the sky shone brightly. It was as if the entire world was bathed in blood light. Suddenly, a beam of red light fell from above. It landed on the Ghost General's body.
An even more powerful aura came from the other party. It was as if his strength had increased by another level.
"Boom!"
The Ghost General suddenly raised an arm. The red light on his body instantly exploded. It rushed out in all directions like a gale. The blood moon in the sky also gradually returned to its original state.
When the red fruit passed by the ghosts behind them, everyone's figure suddenly swelled. It was as if they were in a state of red blood.
A white, misty light screen suddenly rose in front of them. It was Elder Gu who had made a move to block the aftershock of the opponent's attack. Then, he grasped the red key in front of his chest, and a white light suddenly appeared.
That white light came quickly and left quickly. In the blink of an eye, the fully armed Elder Gu appeared in the sky.
An exquisite and beautiful armor covered her body. However, the armor looked more like a set of clothes that was suffused with a metallic radiance. In his hand, he held a short sword. However, the sword was filled with sawtooth. A trace of white light flickered on it. She looked like a valkyrie.
At this time, the Ghost General's appearance also changed greatly. The crescent blade in his hand turned into a large black machete. In his other hand, a pitch-black simple shield was also held in his hand.
What was even more strange was that below the waist, it disappeared. It turned into a mass of black gas. The armor on his body also changed greatly. It was like a bronze armor. Even his face was completely covered.
"Don't tell me these Spirit Guards will also go berserk for the second time." Gu Zheng glanced at the Ghost General. At this time, it was abnormally bold and powerful. Those white bones also changed.
The White Skeletons also had a layer of light armor on their bodies, and a layer of green barrier appeared around the Wild Ghosts. Even the Rotting Corpses had a blood-red weapon that shone with a cold light. It seemed that the overall strength of the Rotting Corpses was not just a little stronger.
Just as Gu Zheng thought this, Elder Gu threw a magic treasure into the sky. It was a black and white ball that constantly changed colors. It exploded in the air and turned into specks of starlight that fell from the sky.
When it landed on Gu Zheng's body, a wave of energy appeared out of thin air. Because of the blood moon, the discomfort from before disappeared. Even Gu Zheng felt that his resistance to the blood poison had greatly increased. This allowed Gu Zheng to perfectly display his strength.
"Quickly look behind you." Xing Cai's cry came from the side.
Gu Zheng turned his head and couldn't help but be dumbfounded. He didn't think that there would be a killing move here. Whatever he thought of would come out.
As the starlight fell, the Spirit Guards behind him flashed with a huge spiritual light.
As the spirit light faded, a beautiful woman with a solemn expression appeared behind him. She was wearing a large silver daoist robe that covered her entire body. She had a head full of silver hair, and with the addition of a shawl, she looked like an expert.
In her originally empty hand, there was now a brush. It had red wood and blue hair that flickered with a faint light.
Finally, the four spirit talismans that were originally revolving around her had all turned dark blue. Traces of lightning constantly jumped out from them.
Now that she looked like this, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that she was a female Elder of the Dao Hall.
As for the controlled zombies, they didn't change much. Only their muscles looked more solid. It seemed that their defense was a bit stronger.
As for the puppets, they didn't change at all.
However, just by relying on these 20 Spirit Guards, their soaring aura wasn't inferior to the other side. It had to be known that they could block the other side before. Now that they had a stronger attack, they might really be able to defeat the other side.
Before the starlight had completely shone, Elder Gu rushed towards the other party in a flash.
With an explosion, the two figures instantly disappeared in the air. No one knew where they went.
"It all depends on us. Before Elder Gu is defeated, we must rush in and break through this layer of barrier." The black-robed priest took a deep breath and said to Gu Zheng and the others with a serious expression.
"Elder Gu can't defeat the other side?" Xing Cai asked in surprise. Looking at her expression before, it didn't seem like there was any problem.
"How is that possible? This place has long been the other side's world. Even if Elder Gu's body has been transformed into a half-human, half-ghost state, these years of endless battles have already emptied her of everything. So, we must do our best." The black-robed priest bitterly smiled. Then, his expression returned to normal.
"Two friends, you guys stay back a bit. Pay attention to protect yourselves. We will use the Spirit Guards to force open a gap in the front. Next, as long as we force open a gap, our Elder Gu will be able to leave this place at any time. Friends, we have known each other for so long. This will be the last time we fight for the Black Dragon." The black-robed priest said to everyone beside him.
"People who have already died long ago have already seen through everything. We will definitely do our best." A red-robed man beside him said calmly.
"For Lord Black Dragon!" The young man also said with a face full of determination.
"Then let's set off!"
