Half a day later, Gu Zheng and his group were imprisoned in a relatively spacious cave. At this moment, there were over a thousand people inside, and most of them were weak and exhausted.
Almost all the people who had been tricked out over the years were gathered here. What surprised Gu Zheng was that although these people looked half-dead, they had only used up too much energy and were a little exhausted. As long as they rested for a while, they would be able to stand up again.
Looking at the starry sky, he cast a spell on the door. These people definitely wouldn't be able to leave, so he left and disappeared without a trace.
Gu Zheng's eyes flashed, it seemed like the other party didn't have any intention of killing them, it seemed like he wanted to continue keeping them captive until he achieved his goal.
After separating a strand of his divine sense to constantly pay attention to the outside, Gu Zheng continued to squat inside like a normal person. Who knew if there were any of his people inside who were leaking information.
At the same time, he secretly prepared to break the black lightning on their bodies.
Ten days later, Starry Sky, who had been recuperating above, finally went out again. It seemed like he had set off ahead of time to break through the defenses of the Heaven Sacred City.
Half a day after the other party left, after confirming that the other party had completely left, Gu Zheng walked out of the crowd and walked towards the unstable gap.
"Captain Rong, what are you doing? Don't waste your energy!" Just as Gu Zheng approached, one of the team members behind him shouted at Gu Zheng.
As for the stout old man, he didn't even raise his eyelids and didn't ask anymore. He was no longer as stout as before, and in less than a month, he looked as if he had aged ten years.
Gu Zheng waved his hand behind him, and did not say anything. This person would usually come to Gu Zheng's side when he had nothing to do, and it seemed like he had a good relationship with the person Gu Zheng had replaced before.
"Forget it, don't try to persuade him. If the other party wants to test him, then let him try. In any case, he won't lose anything." The person beside him laughed.
The others didn't pay much attention to it. Every time a newcomer came, they would have to go up and experience it before completely giving up. They were already used to it, so they might as well rest more if they had the time.
When the person called Gu Zheng heard this, he opened his mouth and said a few words, then sat down and waited for Gu Zheng to return.
Gu Zheng quickly walked to the exit and looked at the barrier in front of him. His body flickered with a faint light, and he actually passed through it, causing some of the people who were watching to be instantly stunned.
After rubbing their eyes and discovering that the other party was already outside, they immediately scrambled forward, feeling as if they could also go out. Unfortunately, they were facing an impenetrable defense.
Just like before, he couldn't get out and was trapped inside.
"Captain, Captain Rong, how, how?" one of them stuttered......
"It's easy to come out. You guys can wait here in peace. You'll all be out soon." Gu Zheng withdrew his gaze from the surroundings. He turned his head and smiled as he walked forward with large strides.
.............. Captain..................
When the rich man saw that his captain was so powerful, he was stunned for a moment, even forgetting to shout for the other party to bring him out.
For them, it was much safer inside than outside.
Even if the other party didn't do anything, there were still some small warnings everywhere in the cave. If they weren't careful, they could be smashed to pieces.
At this time, Gu Zheng and the others were at the lowest level, where they were imprisoned. There was a cave next to it, and there were some people who were completely unable to escape the control of the starry sky. There were more than a hundred people trapped inside.
Gu Zheng could feel the black water aura in his body from outside. His whole body could be said to be completely dead, just barely hanging on to life. Gu Zheng couldn't save them, it was too late.
After a little pity, Gu Zheng didn't stop. Soon, he arrived at the upper level, where the three of them were imprisoned.
At this time, the previously calm Black Lightning Prison looked a little violent. Even the black lightning on their bodies had become thicker, almost drowning their figures.
Starry Sky seemed to be guarding against the three of them, but for some reason, it didn't kill them completely. But for Gu Zheng, it was indeed good news.
Man Tian didn't want to untie the rope like he did at first. He also obediently stayed inside, afraid of triggering the black lightning.
Gu Zheng looked at the black lightning that had once been troublesome for him and was a little stunned. Thinking back to the first time he saw Starry Sky, he never thought that he would become like this. But the evil aura of the black water on his body couldn't be faked, it was very similar to Wen Tianhou's.
Without thinking too much, in the next moment, Gu Zheng directly stretched out his hand and pointed in front of him. In the face of this black lightning that could kill a peak gold immortal at any time, to Gu Zheng, it was just a slightly stronger restriction.
A trace of golden light flashed on Gu Zheng's hand, and a layer of golden fine lines rose from the point of contact, quickly dispersing to the surroundings. In almost less than a few breaths, a passage that was enough for two people to walk side by side appeared in front of him.
Gu Zheng smiled faintly. He didn't need to practice the Magic Arts he had comprehended before. He could use them as he wished, as if they were part of his body.
In other words, he could fully exert his strength when he had just advanced to the early-stage of the Grand Heavenly Realm. He didn't even need to stabilize it.
"Who!"
Man Tian's eyes were mostly covered by the black lightning. He could only see an unfamiliar figure walking in from the outside. It was a person who made his hair stand on end, walking towards him.
"Don't be agitated, it's me, Gu Zheng!"
Gu Zheng looked at the other party's vigilant voice. His figure flashed, and his face returned to normal as he spoke to Man Tian.
"Young Master Gu, you're awake!" Man Tian sensed a familiar aura, especially the aura of the other party that was as vast as the sea. It was obvious that not only had Gu Zheng awakened, his cultivation had also improved, reaching the Grand Heavenly Realm in one fell swoop. This made him both happy and ashamed.
"Wait a moment, I'll let you out and we'll talk in detail." Gu Zheng sensed the other party's tone and seemed to understand his thoughts. He stopped the other party from continuing to speak.
Man Tian took a deep breath, and then stood still. Not to mention that Gu Zheng's strength was not on the same level as his, even the Gu Zheng who had not advanced before, he felt that the seemingly powerful starry sky was not a match for Gu Zheng.
Gu Zheng looked at the black spots on Man Tian's body, and his eyes flashed with golden light. Suddenly, he slashed forward, and a golden light flashed in the air. In the next moment, all the black lightning suddenly stagnated, and then dissipated in the air in the next moment, completely disappearing.
"Thank you for your help, Young Master Gu!" Man Tian was very surprised, but he still said with shame on his face.
"How did you get trapped by the other party? You don't seem to be injured, and the other party's cultivation shouldn't be much higher than yours. Why do I feel that you were captured without any resistance?" Gu Zheng looked at Man Tian curiously and asked.
"It's a long story. At that time, I really did not expect the enemy to be Starry Sky. After all, we have met once. In the end, I foolishly fell into the other party's trap. Otherwise, how could I have fallen into this place so easily without any resistance?" Man Tian said with regret.
"The other party even warned us to stay here obediently, and only let us out after the matter is over. As if I would believe him!"
Although he had failed to reach the Grand Heavenly Realm, under the nourishment of the Scarlet Soul Pill, he felt that he was infinitely close. It was just that his cultivation technique was special. With the right opportunity, he would definitely be able to advance.
"So that's the case. If it were me, I would have suffered a huge loss if I was caught off guard. Don't worry about it. As long as you guys are fine, it's fine." Gu Zheng explained to Man Tian.
"There are two other fellow daoists. One of them is a guard sent from below, and the other is a fellow daoist who happened to be passing by. They are both trapped by the other party. I implore Young Master Gu to save them. The other party will definitely notice that we have escaped. If he gets close enough, he will be able to control this dangerous plaything." Man Tian said anxiously.
"Hold on, I'll release the other party right away." Gu Zheng nodded his head and went out with Man Tian. Following the instructions given by Man Tian, they quickly rescued the other two people.
Man Tian introduced himself to each other, and found out that the fellow daoist who was passing by was called Lu Tian.
As for the guard, he just had to address him as a guard. He was mysterious.
Gu Zheng looked at the other party and thanked him. Then, he got straight to the point.
"Since everyone is safe, we just have to capture the other party. Fellow daoist guard, you will be in charge of rescuing everyone below and escorting them to Heaven Divine City. We will go and look for them directly."
Hearing Gu Zheng's instructions, the three of them did not have any objections. After a short conversation, they separated again.
"Young Master Gu, the other party's gourd is very powerful. It's completely different from ordinary magic treasures. You have to be careful." Open Sky, who had suffered a huge loss, cautioned Gu Zheng carefully before leaving the hill.
Even at this point, his injuries had not fully recovered.
"Don't worry. Young Master Gu can deal with the other party with a single finger. You have to know that Young Master Gu has already advanced to the Zenith Heaven Realm. How can the other party fly to the sky?" Man Tian immediately defended himself.
"Sss!"
Lu Tian looked at Gu Zheng in disbelief. He had thought that Gu Zheng was some special magic treasure when he had removed the restrictions on them so cleanly. He did not expect that the other party's cultivation had already reached the Zenith Heaven Realm.
"Then I can rest assured. I will just stop the other party from escaping." Lu Tian also said in a low profile manner.
"Young Master Gu, I want to vent my anger first. How dare he deceive me. I must beat him to a pulp." Man Tian also said eagerly.
"Okay, be careful. Don't kill the other party. I need to ask him some questions." Gu Zheng nodded but still reminded them.
Not only did he remind them, but he also reminded himself.
The other party's behavior was a little strange. Although he had been corroded by the black water, it felt like he still retained his consciousness.
The three of them rushed all the way. When they arrived above Heaven Divine City, they did not find the other party's figure.
"Let's go down first and wait for the other party to arrive!" Gu Zheng thought for a moment and understood that the other party should have gone to check on the concealment array nearby. It would probably take a long time, so he might as well wait for them first.
Man Tian and the other two nodded. The three of them descended rapidly. When they were about to reach the golden barrier, a circular hole appeared from below. The three of them went straight to the tower in the middle.
Hai Tiantao, who had been observing from below, of course knew about such a conspicuous action. He was overjoyed and immediately rushed to the tower alone.
However, when he reached the bottom, he was rejected. He was not in a hurry. He continued to wait outside under the scorching sun.
However, he did not have to wait for long. Soon, the door opened. Hai Tiantao was shocked and immediately walked in.
Half a day later, Hai Tiantao came out with an uncontrollable joy. He was holding a green ball in his hand. However, he did not make a fuss and returned to the City Lord Mansion.
"That thing is very rare. You gave it to him just like that?" Man Tian said enviously.
"It's just a one-time use clone. Besides, it's only suppressed here. It's not rare. When you find precious materials in the future, you can also make it. Even your current puppet is the same." Gu Zheng did not feel any heartache. Instead, he said.
The remaining black gas and green crystals were all merged into one. Adding a little bit of divine sense, he made a clone that could last for several days. It could be used as a trump card here.
"I can make something so powerful that it can last for thousands of years. Oh right, Young Master Gu, this is a letter that Star Tyrant asked me to pass to you before he left thousands of years ago!" Man Tian took out the letter from his bosom. It was still intact at this time.
Gu Zheng reached out and opened the letter. He quickly read ten lines at a glance. Then, a flame burned in the air and completely swallowed the letter.
Gu Zheng looked into the distance in a daze. He seemed to be looking at Lu Tian who was praising this place.
"What's wrong? Do you need me to do something? "Man Tian looked at Gu Zheng for a long time without speaking and asked tentatively.
"There's something I need you to do. When this matter is over, take this to Star Tyrant. He will naturally know what I mean." Gu Zheng's eyes focused again. He reached out and grabbed at the void. A small blue pearl appeared in front of Man Tian.
"Okay! What about you, Young Master Gu? "Man Tian kept the pearl and continued to ask.
"Me? I'll talk about it when the time comes. The world is so big. I still want to see it. Looking at your state, you should find a paradise to continue recuperating. Who knows, you might be able to break through again in one breath. "Gu Zheng chuckled and said confidently.
Man Tian nodded and did not say anything. He could hear that Gu Zheng seemed to want to leave this place and continue to train. It felt like he did not relax for a moment.
And it seemed like he wanted to continue to break through like Gu Zheng said. In this place, he could not completely relax. This was why he was implicated.
In the blink of an eye, ten days passed. In the originally calm sky, a figure appeared in the sky again. At the same time, a very arrogant voice resounded.
"Seems like you guys have not made your choice. What a pity."
Man Tian Xing did not notice that the cave that Gu Zheng purposely hid had been destroyed.
As usual, just as he was about to throw down a few vicious words and attack again, three figures suddenly rose up from below.
"Haha, there's someone seeking death again. You really don't know Tian Tian Tian …" The Starry Sky mocked. He thought that it was a few Celestial Immortals below and wanted to rush up. However, before he could finish his sentence, he was stuck on the word "Tian" when he saw the person who rose up from below. He could not even finish his sentence.
"Long time no see, Man Tian Xing. I didn't expect you to do things for others. Why are you going to take the treasure for yourself after getting it back? Aren't you going to return it? " Gu Zheng flew up to the sky and stood side by side with Man Tian. Lu Tian had already hidden himself in the surroundings to prevent Man Tian from escaping.
"Young Master Gu, I didn't expect to see you here. Didn't you leave this place? Why are you back?" Man Tian Xing kept his smile and said with a serious face.
At the same time, he subconsciously took a few steps back and became even more nervous.
Gu Zheng frowned slightly and a trace of doubt flashed across his eyes. He did not believe that Man Tian Xing did not know that he was injured. After all, with his identity, as long as he went back to disguise himself, he would definitely know about his situation.
Taking a step back, Man Tian Xing did not know that he was in the painting. But so many people knew that he was injured. It was impossible that no one knew about it.
"My Young Master comes and goes as he pleases. How can you stop him? I haven't settled the score for your deceit last time. This time, you won't be able to escape even if you have wings." Man Tian Xing stepped forward and said angrily.
"Heh, you are a fool. Moreover, you look like someone who can be easily deceived. If I didn't deceive you, I would feel sorry for myself. It's a pity that time was too short and I couldn't break your treasure. Otherwise, you would have turned into a pool of blood and still be standing here shamelessly." Man Tian Xing raised his eyebrows and snorted. He was not afraid of Man Tian Xing at all.
"Young Master Gu, let me teach him a lesson. Don't dirty your hands!" Man Tian Xing was anxious. He stretched out his hand and a row of cloth dolls suddenly appeared in the air.
As soon as each of them appeared, their bodies bulged like air. The small ones were only ten feet tall and the big ones were ten feet tall. Each of them exuded a powerful aura.
Gu Zheng was still frowning. His figure retreated slightly as if he was guarding Man Tian Xing and could go up at any time.
But in his heart, he was thinking about the contradictions of Man Tian Xing. Man Tian Xing had been imprisoned there for nearly a year. When he saw him, he did not have a treasure to protect himself.
In other words, if Man Tian Xing wanted to kill them, why wait until now? They would have been drowned by the endless black spots.
There were so many humans. It was said that except for the first half of the year when they took turns to go there, almost all of them were locked here. But they did not have to worry about food and drink.
All of this made Gu Zheng feel a little strange. Even if Man Tian Xing's aura was somewhat similar to Wen Tianhou's at that time, Gu Zheng was a little uncertain.
But at this moment, Gu Zheng's ears twitched. He maintained his previous appearance and quietly looked in front of him.
"I can't deal with Young Master Gu, but can't I deal with you?" Man Tian Xing carefully glanced at Gu Zheng. A gourd suddenly appeared in his hand. Traces of black light flowed on it.
"Hmph, you are dead this time. Let me send you off first to save you from suffering." Man Tian Xing just wanted to vent the anger in his heart. He snorted coldly and waved his hand. Two cloth dolls, one big and one small, rushed up first.
