Gu Zheng looked around and realized that almost all the Jin Xian were grabbing towards the sky.
Old Man Mo and the other Great Heavenly Immortals were not interested at all. They even dodged to prevent themselves from being dragged in by the other party. To them, these were useless. They might as well leave them for the experience that they brought back.
The Jin Xian were in a frenzy. Every time they absorbed one, the aura on their bodies would more or less solidify. These were all real gains.
Even the smallest shard was worth a few hundred years of cultivation.
The only bad thing was that these shards could only be absorbed one by one. The absorption time for each shard was different. The smaller the shard, the faster one would awaken. However, the bigger shards seemed to be different from the smaller ones. A few of them took too long to comprehend after absorbing the bigger shards.
Gu Zheng was the same. He looked at the second elixir with sparkling eyes. According to the previous agreement, the second elixir would be given to Madam Banmeng. Everyone had reached an agreement.
However, from the third elixir onwards, it was hard to say. Even Madam Banmeng did not know how many elixirs were in there. However, according to the past, there would definitely be three elixirs. The rest would depend on luck.
There might be a few more, or there might only be the minimum of three.
No one could see the situation inside the elixir furnace. However, one-fifth of the gold had already melted. In theory, there should be at least five elixirs. However, no one could be sure.
Although the Great Dao Crystallization was important, the Heavenly Replenishing Elixir was even more important. Even if they could comprehend it in advance, they could have a clear understanding of their future path.
As everyone continued to wait, the silver light that filled the sky appeared again. An elixir was about to take shape and rolled forward. When the light appeared again, Madam Banmeng reached out without hesitation. The elixir rose from the ground and was quickly caught in her hand. She put it away.
At this moment, everyone looked at Madam Banmeng's satisfied expression. Their relaxed expressions turned serious. They were no longer as relaxed as before. Their eyes were on the door and they were ready to snatch it at any time.
Only the Jin Xian were still immersed in the stars. To them, perhaps the rest of the matter had no room for them to participate. The mission had been completed.
Without making them wait for too long, the third Scarlet Soul Pill rolled out of the pill furnace. Everyone was ready, and at the same time, they looked around.
Although it was just the four of them competing, the pressure of a storm still caused many of the peak Jin Xian cultivators to retreat to the back, lest they suffer an unexpected calamity at the front.
Just as the single pill had already fused together and was rushing inside, everyone was ready to make a move.
A sudden change occurred.
In the sky, a black shadow flashed and rushed inside. Before anyone could react, the figure was already standing below the Dragon Throne. He looked at everyone coldly with a warm face.
"Who are you? Why are you causing trouble here?!" The old woman couldn't help but shout when she saw a stranger come out.
If it weren't for the fact that the other party's aura was two levels higher than theirs, they would have probably attacked by now.
"It doesn't matter who I am. The key is that you can leave now. Thank you for opening this path for me. Otherwise, I would have had to put in a lot of effort alone." The person smiled and politely asked them to leave, as though he was the owner of the place.
Gu Zheng looked at the other party coldly. This person was the one he had met before. However, there should be another person. He was observing his surroundings without batting an eyelid, unlike the others who were focusing all their attention on him.
"Wen Tianhou, what do you mean by this? Where is my husband? " However, before anyone could speak, Lady Banmeng raised her eyebrows and spoke in a somewhat aggressive tone. She didn't seem to be afraid of the other party.
"I don't have the ability to deal with your husband. I just trapped him. You should know better. However, don't cause trouble. Otherwise, don't blame me for being impolite." Wen Tianhou looked around and warned Lady Banmeng, as though he was afraid of her.
However, the third Heavenly Restoration Pill had been successfully completed. Wen Tianhou reached out and grabbed it, disappearing into the other party's palm.
Everyone was intimidated by his power and didn't dare to make a move. They could only watch as the other party put it away.
At this moment, a silver light flashed in the sky and another Scarlet Soul Pill appeared. It felt like the appearance of the Heavenly Restoration Pill had sped up.
"Fellow Daoists, how about we work together? We don't need to defeat the other party. As long as we can get the Heavenly Restoration Pill back, no matter who gets it, they will have to give something to those who didn't get it. Otherwise, I'm afraid we won't get a single one.
There seems to be a small amount of gold ingot left, "Old Man Mo took a step forward and said loudly to them.
Everyone turned their heads and saw that there was only a third of the gold ingot left. Based on this, there were at most three more. If the other party got it, then there wouldn't even be soup left.
"Okay, I agree." As soon as the other party finished speaking, Gu Zheng immediately shouted.
"In that case, I also agree. We can't have no hope at all," the old woman also said.
"What about you? Are you going to back down just like that? "The old woman saw that the masked man didn't speak and couldn't help but ask.
"Haha, he won't agree because he's one of my people." Wen Tianhou's words caused everyone to be on guard. Even the old woman's side distanced themselves from him.
"But you think I'm going to take them all? You're thinking too much. I only need one to strengthen the power of the black dragon soul. If you know what's good for you, wait for me to finish and take it from above. General Left and General Right, block them for me."
Wen Tianhou looked down with disdain. Then he took out a white transparent ball. Inside the ball, there was a small dragon with black smoke. It was swimming around at a fast speed.
When that pair of pitch-black eyes saw Gu Zheng's side, it sped up and opened its small mouth to bite, as if it wanted to swallow them.
Bang!
The sturdy sphere blocked the little black dragon, and it gave up on baring its fangs at the people below. Its entire body stood erect, and it raised its head to look at Wen Tianhou. It opened its mouth again and again, as if it wanted to swallow Wen Tianhou.
However, Gu Zheng's side took a step back in unison. They were so scared that they broke out in a cold sweat.
Because just now, it was as if there really was a ferocious black dragon pouncing from the sky. The old woman, who overreacted, had already taken out her weapon.
"I'm not going to play with you anymore. When the black dragon reappears, you'll know how to run." On the other side, Wen Tianhou put the transparent ball in his hand close to the Great Path Crystal in the air. The two touched.
On the other side, Lady Half Dream's face was gloomy, but she didn't stop him. In fact, no one present could stop him from doing what he wanted. They could only watch.
Because at this moment, another masked man came out from the passage behind them. The two generals stood on the side and looked at them covetously.
When the ball got close to the Great Path Crystal, the entire Great Path Crystal emitted a faint luster, as if it had sensed something. It looked very excited.
Even the small black dragon's eyes were fixed on the Great Path Crystal. Its body seemed to be fixed in mid-air, motionless. Its eyes were filled with desire.
The moment the two touched, the small black dragon's figure moved like a rabbit. It instantly rushed out of the ball and into the Great Path Crystal. It coiled up and fell into a deep sleep.
Waves of black gas rose from the crystal at the same time.
"There's no hope now," Old Man Mo said regretfully.
"What's going on?" Gu Zheng deliberately pretended not to know.
Of course, he knew what the other party wanted to do. The Great Path Crystal was condensed from the black dragon's essence, Qi, and spirit. As long as it was placed inside, after a period of time, it could be said that the black dragon could be revived again.
And what Elder Gu entrusted Gu Zheng to do was the same.
But what worried Gu Zheng was that the evil dragon had turned into a black dragon. Of course, the evil dragon's evil thoughts were the evil thoughts of the black dragon. The good thoughts were the original good thoughts. Of course, the two were different.
And from the looks of it, the other party seemed to have done something to the evil thoughts of the black dragon. Otherwise, he would not be so fearless. Otherwise, after the black dragon recovered, even if it only had one-third of its strength, Wen Tianhou would not be able to deal with it.
No matter how weak he was, he was still at the level of a quasi-saint. Even if he had an Innate Spiritual Treasure, he could only protect himself from death.
On this side, Old Man Mo quickly told him what he already knew. Gu Zheng was thinking.
Although they did not move here, the old woman would not allow the other party to take everything for himself. He did not know what conditions she had negotiated with the madam.
She suddenly pounced forward, not at all inferior to Wen Tianhou. She had already discovered that Wen Tianhou's mind was focused on the Great Path Crystal. It seemed that he needed to control something.
Such a good opportunity, of course, was to take the initiative to snatch the Heavenly Pill.
On the other side, Madam Half Dream also rushed toward the left and right generals, as if to stop them.
"Stop them for me." At this time, Wen Tianhou ordered again. In order to have absolute control over the black dragon, he could not be distracted and could not let the other party ruin his plan.
It was fine even if he did not want the Heavenly Pill.
The left general did not need his order. He flashed and appeared in front of the old woman in the next moment, blocking her way.
The right general was entangled with Madam Half Dream.
The old woman held her walking stick and did not want to fight with the left general. She only wanted to rush behind him. At this time, the Heavenly Pill was about to take shape. This was the best opportunity for her.
Wen Tianhou could not see what the other party was thinking. Looking at the Heavenly Pill that had just taken shape, he flicked his other hand and a light force emerged from his fingertips.
In the next moment, the force circled around the Heavenly Pill and then suddenly shot out.
The Heavenly Pill shot up from the ground, drew an arc in the air, and arrived in front of Gu Zheng in an instant.
Gu Zheng almost did not react. He thought that it was the other party's attack and instinctively blocked it. His hand glowed with a golden light and he was about to destroy the other party.
But when he saw what was attacking him in the air, he stopped his attack. His fist turned into a palm and he reached out to grab the Heavenly Pill.
Looking at the thing in his hand, Gu Zheng was stunned. He did not understand why the other party was so kind to give it to him. Was it just a coincidence?
"You want to interfere with me? Dream on, even if I give it to someone else, I won't give it to you, "Wen Tianhou said coldly.
As for why he gave it to Gu Zheng, no one knew.
But the effect was obvious. The old woman saw that the Heavenly Pill was gone. Although she was unwilling, she did not try to rush over.
Then, she turned around and returned to the back. She looked to the side and saw that there was very little gold nugget there. She was even more annoyed and looked at Gu Zheng with ill intentions.
But with the two of them together, the chances were even slimmer.
She did not move, but that did not mean that the others did not move.
When Lady Half Dream also retreated, the left and right generals stood together again. At this time, they stood in the middle and looked around as if they were loyal guards.
The people below did not act rashly for the time being. They just looked at the black light in Wen Tianhou's hand and did not know what he was doing.
But it only lasted for a stick of incense's time. As the silver light appeared in the sky again, the entire scene changed.
Not only did the old woman become restless, but even Old Man Mo became restless.
This was because he hadn't achieved any of his goals in coming here. The Great Path Crystal was already pitch-black, and even the Black Dragon that had entered it couldn't see clearly. If this continued, then it would be like drawing water with a sieve. This was unacceptable to him.
"Young friend Gu, please help me on the account that I helped you before. I will definitely repay you generously in the future." Old Man Mo looked forward and transmitted his voice to Gu Zheng.
"Don't worry, I am not an ungrateful person. I will definitely help you." Gu Zheng also transmitted his voice.
As for the Heaven Mending Pill that fell from the sky, he would definitely not give it to him. But he would help him snatch one.
"The two of you, the other party is in a critical period and cannot move. If we do not act now, it will be too late. No matter who it is, the other party will have to suffer." At this time, the old woman suddenly transmitted her voice.
Old Man Mo and Gu Zheng looked at each other and nodded at the same time. They agreed with each other's idea.
At this time, the silver light above their heads became stronger and stronger. They would wait until the Heaven Mending Pill was about to take shape before they acted. This way, their chances of success would be higher.
However, how could he not know that they were secretly discussing this under Wen Tianhou's nose?
Just as the silver light appeared, suddenly, countless black gas appeared out of thin air beside the left and right generals. They took out two black crystals at the same time. Even more black gas surged out from inside and spread in all directions. It almost drowned the entire Great Hall in an instant.
And these people only had time to put on a layer of protection around themselves before they fell into darkness.
At this time, there were suddenly many exclamations around them. They were interrupted from their enlightenment and found that their surroundings were dark.
"Everyone, maintain your current state and wait for me to break through!" On the other side, Lady Half Dream was also enveloped by the black gas. Anger rose in her heart. Since the other party did not give her face, why should she care about the other party? Especially when her reinforcements were already on the way.
If something really happened, her husband would definitely be able to come in time.
However, just as she finished speaking, a strange fluctuation suddenly shook the air. Everyone felt waves of pressure coming from outside their bodies. It was very difficult to even raise their hands and feet. Even the circulation of the immortal energy in their bodies was somewhat sluggish.
Gu Zheng immediately felt the strange pressure. This should be a special magic treasure. It was very likely that Wen Tianhou had given it to them a long time ago.
Gu Zheng's body was supported by a yellow light that separated the black gas from his body. Only then did he feel much more relaxed.
Golden light flashed in his eyes. Gu Zheng turned his head to look in the middle. He saw the two generals were surrounded by a large amount of black light. Endless mana surged towards the black crystals in their hands.
As for the black crystals, they turned into black gas and scattered in all directions. The two black crystals trembled in a very rhythmic manner. At the same time, a black ring jumped out from his body and swept out in all directions to strengthen the power of the black gas.
One must know that even Big Luo could feel the restraints. Those Jin Xian were like ordinary people now. They could not help at all.
But they also saw that the black gas only filled the first half of the hall. It did not spread to the back.
Gu Zheng could see it. Everyone else could see it. They all put up their own defenses to minimize the pressure on themselves.
Old Man Mo roared angrily. His body swelled with a large yellow light. To him, the power of faith was better than ordinary magic treasures at this time.
The black gas was instantly pushed into an oval shape. More incense power was emitted from his body and spread to the surroundings.
The black gas was quickly corroded by the incense power and continued to retreat.
On the other side, Lady Half Dream and the old woman each put up a black shield and a golden shield to separate the black gas.
But the two of them could not completely isolate the influence of the black gas. But they could offset a part of it.
The old woman threw the weapon in her hand forward. It flashed with an intense golden light. It broke open a path in the air and struck towards the two generals.
On the other side, Lady Half Dream also took out a few decent looking immortal treasures and rushed towards the two generals.
Gu Zheng also took out a few flying swords. After inscribing a few simple runes on them, he also broke through the black gas and flew towards the center.
On the other side, Old Man Mo continuously waved his hands, and yellow chains appeared one after another. However, this time, he didn't control them. When there were a few dozen shortened chains in front of him, he threw them all in that direction without thinking.
His frightening aura was more eye-catching than the other three.
When the generals saw this, they did not panic. The two of them touched the black crystal in the air and it stuck close to each other.
In the next moment, a black light flickered above, and a layer of slightly transparent black barrier was instantly activated from above, enveloping the two of them inside.
Tadpole-Like black runes constantly flowed inside, making the surface of the shield overflow with black light. Even in the black fog, it was very conspicuous.
"Ding ding dang dang!"
When the flying magic treasures and weapons hit the black gas outside, they only brought up a string of black gas. They were not damaged at all.
Clearly, the power was not enough to break through their shield.
Seeing this, Lady Halfdream retreated without even turning her head. The old woman beside her also followed suit, at least retreating from the black fog before deciding what to do next.
