Gu Zheng looked at the head above and took a deep breath. He was not shocked by the size of the other party, but by the fact that there was an early-stage Grand Luo demonic beast hiding in the blood pool. No wonder the other party was so fearless.
"You go and play with the other party for a while. We'll deal with them together later!" The black shadow said with a bloodthirsty tone. At the same time, it dived into the blood pool above.
"Roar!"
The huge head roared, and its whole body drilled out.
Beneath that malevolent head, a smooth body that resembled a hairtail scuttled out. Its fins, which were relatively small in comparison to its body, moved slightly, and its entire body charged towards Gu Zheng like a bolt of lightning.
"You come down and watch the back. I'll block it." Gu Zheng quickly said to Song Shan when the other party came out, and he flew up first.
"Huff!"
The hairtail demonic beast suddenly exhaled, and a red beast claw the size of a house floated in the air. It was covered with scales, and it was blooming with a disgusting bloody light. The sharp claw directly grabbed at Gu Zheng.
Gu Zheng's figure paused slightly in the air, and a layer of golden armor immediately covered his body. At the same time, the pen in his hand rose in an instant. It carried a faint ancient vicissitude, and it quickly collided with the claw.
"Bang!" The seemingly powerful red claw was directly hit with a huge hole from the center. The other parts of the claw were also shattered, and it instantly turned into a cloud of red mist and dissipated in the air.
A streak of golden light rapidly advanced forward, but all of a sudden, the hairtail suddenly spat out a red ball from its mouth. It instantly collided with the pen, and the menacing magistrate's pen was stuck inside. Countless red tentacles rose from the small ball and grabbed it tightly.
At the same time, it swung its tail in the air. Its slender body whizzed through the air like a steel whip, bringing with it strong gales. When Gu Zheng grabbed the red ball in his hand, it heavily smashed into his body.
However, although Gu Zheng's figure flew back, the outer layer of golden light was still stable.
At this moment, above the blood pool, a huge red door suddenly appeared.
The door almost covered half of the blood pool. It was red all over to alert the paparazzi. Two door knockers that looked like blood-red eyeballs were hanging on the door, looking around strangely.
The entire door was carved with a strange pattern. If one looked at it from afar, it looked like the body of some kind of creature.
Countless amounts of blood Qi emanated from it. Anyone who saw it would know that something extraordinary was sealed inside.
"Puchi!"
The two eyeballs seemed to observe that there was no danger, and then they exploded in the air. Two blood-red arms reached out from the middle, grabbed the edges of the eyeballs, and began to pull them out.
"Creak"
An ear-piercing voice resounded from above. At the same time, a terrifying aura leaked out from inside. It was the aura of a peak Golden Immortal.
"That guy wants to pull people from the Blood Sea." This thought instantly appeared in Gu Zheng's mind. However, he was entangled by that treatment. The other party did not want to achieve anything, but wanted to avoid any mistakes. He did not leave the front of the blood pool. Even if Gu Zheng revealed a flaw, he would not bite him. He was extremely cunning.
"Think of a way to interrupt the opening of the door." Gu Zheng instantly made a decision. The opening speed of the door was obviously not that fast. Theoretically, there was still enough time. Looking at the cunning demonic beast in front of him, he had a clear idea in his heart. He rushed up again. If he left the other party alone, he would keep summoning blood balls to bombard Gu Zheng and the people below.
At this moment, the battle below was even more intense. The arrows in the hands of the archers could penetrate dozens of spirits with each attack. It was extremely powerful.
However, the other party had a large number of people, and they were even more fearless. In addition, there were always gaps between them, and they were gradually closing in. This made the lieutenant very anxious. He shouted loudly, but it was useless.
Other than paying attention to the blood balls above, Song Shan was also trying his best to recover from his injuries. When his injuries were slightly better, he would join in the battle again.
Xiao Ying and the rest were trying to think of a way to open the blood lock. However, it seemed like there was no way at all.
The entire battle was heading in a direction that was disadvantageous to them.
After half a cup of tea's time, Gu Zheng's confidence had completely disappeared. He used all kinds of methods, but he could not break through the other party's defense. He was like a loach. Taking advantage of Gu Zheng's rash attacks, he was injured a few times by the other party.
Facing Gu Zheng's attacks that did not hurt him, he did not care at all. Under the light of the blood pool behind him, his injuries were quickly healed.
The cunning of this fish was far beyond Gu Zheng's expectations. Facing the other party, unless he used his absolute strength to kill the other party, the other party would not fall for his tricks. This made him anxious, and he was even more nervous.
The blood red door had already revealed a gap, and a bloody light had already shot out from it. The surrounding air was tainted with the unique aura of the Asura Blood Sea, and the violent negative aura in his heart unconsciously rose.
However, this was still suppressed, but when the door was completely opened, no one would be able to escape.
The black shadow's trump card was simply beyond Gu Zheng's expectations. This time, a sense of helplessness rose from the bottom of Gu Zheng's heart. Even under the influence of the blood aura, he wanted to take Xiao Ying and the rest away from here. Ji Yi and the rest could not be saved, and they could not even open the blood lock now.
"Blood battle, for the Emperor, we will not retreat even if we die!"
Suddenly, the lieutenant below shouted. At the same time, he pulled out his sword and rushed towards the vengeful spirits in front of him. The rest of the archers also shouted. The bows in their hands changed into all kinds of weapons as they rushed towards the vengeful spirits that were approaching them.
Song Shan was also forced to wake up from his rest. He took a glance above, and immediately charged towards the vengeful spirit. He would first block the other party's ocean-like attack.
At this moment, the door suddenly trembled with a buzzing sound. Finally, a slight gap opened from the middle, and a ghostly wail resounded from the inside. A blood-red light suddenly shot out, hitting the golden light in the middle.
As the bloody light rolled, sinister faces were unceasingly wailing. There were human faces and beast faces, as if they were imprisoned in this endless abyss. They let out mournful wails, causing the bloody light in the air to become even more intense. Even the entire cave was dyed red, as if it was foretelling the end of everyone here.
"Boom!"
Following an even more miserable howl, the majority of the golden light had already been blown away by the bloody light, revealing the Desolate Cloud Sword inside. At this time, the bloody light on the sword had almost completely disappeared, and an overwhelming righteous aura was emitted from it, forming a light wave that spread out in all directions, dispersing a lot of the blood aura in the air.
However, the surrounding golden light had already completely disappeared, and the Desolate Cloud Sword was now quietly staying in the air.
Gu Zheng looked down from the corner of his eyes, other than Ji Yi and a few others who still had a trace of hope, the others had already completely lost all hope.
"My Young Master Gu, do you need my help?" Suddenly, Gu Zheng heard a familiar voice, causing him to be stunned, and almost got attacked by the other party.
His figure quickly flashed, and at the same time, he looked around from the corner of his eyes, but he didn't find anything.
"You only need to nod your head, and I guarantee that you will be able to escape unscathed. As for me, as long as you agree to one of my conditions, I will definitely not make things difficult for you." Pan Xuan seemed to know what Gu Zheng was thinking, and once again transmitted her words into his ears.
Gu Zheng looked down, only a few archers and that lieutenant were still persevering, the others had already disappeared. If it wasn't for Song Shan's resistance, they would have already reached Xiao Ying.
Other than Xiao Ying, that Kun Yu was just sitting on the ground waiting for death, and didn't even think of resisting. Although he already knew that this would be the outcome, when it really came down to it, he still couldn't be at ease.
Looking at Ji Yi's eyes that were still filled with hope, Gu Zheng thought of the Old Man Qin, and then slowly nodded his head.
Just as he nodded his head, an extremely strong aura suddenly erupted from the ground.
An object that was emitting white light exploded a huge hole in the ground, and instantly rushed towards Gu Zheng.
Gu Zheng focused his gaze, and saw that it was an ornament, an ancient jade pendant that quickly stopped in front of him.
However, Gu Zheng still directly grabbed it in his hand, but he didn't know how to use it.
"Drip a drop of your blood into it, and you will naturally know what to do next. I will wait outside for you to come out." Following Pan Xuan's last words, the other party seemed to have really left this place.
Gu Zheng didn't understand what this thing could do, but thinking of Pan Xuan's words, he still opened his mouth, and a drop of golden blood fell from his mouth onto the pendant.
After the jade pendant was infused with Gu Zheng's blood essence, a bloody light flashed on it, and then it emitted an intense white light.
"Whoosh!"
The Cloud Desolate Sword's body slightly swayed, as if it had sensed something, and the entire sword directly soared into the sky, and instantly stopped in front of Gu Zheng's eyes. At the original hilt, the round hole that was emitting a faint white light in the distance was flashing, as if it was indicating something.
Gu Zheng didn't have to think too much, and stretched out his hand to grab the Cloud Desolate Sword, and quickly hung the jade pendant on it with his other hand.
When the people in the distance saw this scene, their eyes finally revealed a look of fear, and they abnormally rushed towards Gu Zheng.
At the moment when Gu Zheng hung the jade sword on his neck, a familiar feeling suddenly surged into his heart, as if the Cloud Desolate Sword was a part of his hand, and was connected to his mind. Almost in an instant, he understood its various divine abilities.
"Boom!"
A golden wave of air suddenly exploded from Gu Zheng's body, and from the top to the bottom, a huge golden wave exploded on the ground, and quickly spread out in all directions.
For Song Shan, Xiao Ying, and the others, it was just a gentle breeze, but for those vengeful souls, after this golden light passed through all of their bodies, they all stagnated on the spot, and in the next moment, their bodies turned into fine powder and dissipated, and not a single one was left, and all of them completely dissipated.
Only the scarred lieutenant was left, and when he saw this scene, his face revealed a trace of a smile, and straightened up in the direction of Gu Zheng, and muttered under his breath.
"Never retreat, my Emperor will win!"
In the next moment, his body once again turned into a silver whistle, and with a gentle breeze, it turned into silver powder and dissipated in the air.
Song Shan looked up with a complicated expression, and no one knew what he was thinking.
Gu Zheng looked at Ribbonfish, who rarely took the initiative to attack, and in the next moment, his body moved, and the sword in his hand slashed at the opponent across the air. Without holding back, a black crack appeared in the void, and rapidly spread out towards the opponent.
Even though Ribbonfish had already dodged in advance, the end of its hard body was still forcibly cut off, causing it to hiss in pain, and retreat once again.
However, Gu Zheng did not take the opportunity to continue his pursuit, but instead, he turned his head and came to the top of the blood chain, waving his weapon, and slashing at it again.
This time, the chain did not block Gu Zheng's attack, and with a "crash", it was directly cut off from the sky, and fell heavily to the ground.
Then, Gu Zheng's figure did not slow down at all, and after landing from the sky, he waved his sword a few more times, like cutting tofu, cutting a gap in the chain, and urged Ji Yi and the others to come quickly.
This sudden turn of events stunned everyone, so much so that when the gap was cut open by Gu Zheng, they did not react, and just stared blankly at the exit.
"Why are you still cold? Come out quickly!" Seeing that the other party did not move, Gu Zheng hurriedly urged, and only then did the people inside come to their senses, and hurriedly ran out.
"I knew you could definitely do it, but I did not expect you to be secretly subduing that sword." After Ji Yi came out, he patted Gu Zheng's shoulder, and said enthusiastically, not at all unfamiliar with his cultivation.
To him, it was as if they were still fighting side by side in the past, and the passing of these years did not reduce the distance between them at all.
"Now is not the time to talk about this, let's leave quickly. When they come out, even if I have the sword, I might not be a match for them." Gu Zheng chuckled, and immediately said to them.
"Young Master, Young Master, this is the antidote on them. It suddenly appeared in my hand, and a female voice told me that this was their antidote. I don't know if it's true or not." Kun Yu and the others also came over, and Xiao Ying took out a jade pendant and said to Gu Zheng.
"Don't worry, it's true. We're preparing to forcefully leave this place. Everyone, follow closely behind." Gu Zheng took out the jade bottle, and asked Ji Yi and the others to quickly distribute it. Then, he turned his head and said to Song Shan.
"General Song, thank you for what you did previously. Now that the other party is strong, how about we leave together?"
"Alright, this is the will of the heavens. I did not expect you to find Yu Zong. Now, there is still Devil Qi in the Cloud Desolate Sword, and the two Spirit Pearls of Water and Fire are missing. I hope you can take good care of him." No one knew what Song Shan was thinking, but he said to Gu Zheng with a complicated expression.
"Alright, I'll …"
"Boom!"
A huge vibration from above interrupted Gu Zheng's words. At this time, the people above seemed to know about the situation of Gu Zheng and the others, and now, they were opening the door faster.
At this time, through the gap, a lot of Blood Qi had drifted out, and quickly gathered in the air. Red mist surrounded the body of the Cutlass, and he was looking at Gu Zheng with resentment. He seemed to be quickly recovering from his injuries, and was ready to attack again.
"We have recovered at least fifty percent of our cultivation base, and the rest needs to be recuperated. It's basically useless to stay here. Let's go!" Ji Yi glanced at the sky and said to Gu Zheng.
"Let's go, we'll talk after we get out of here!" Gu Zheng said decisively.
"I'll lead the way. Otherwise, you don't know where to go." Song Shan said to Gu Zheng. After seeing Gu Zheng nod his head, he immediately rushed forward.
Almost forty people followed behind him, and together, they flew toward the tunnel that Shura came from.
Feeling the suffocating aura behind them gradually fading away, the group felt a little more at ease. After passing through a few halls, they finally approached the exit above.
In an incomparably huge cave, there was a seven-colored whirlpool at the top. Waves of spatial energy were emitted from the center, but looking at the narrow whirlpool, it seemed like only one person could pass through at a time.
"Those Shura are smart. They know to open up all the paths. Otherwise, they would definitely give them a taste of their own medicine." Seeing the exit before them, they couldn't help but say fiercely.
"Yes, they want to stop us without a Grand Luo to oversee the situation. Not to mention that we have a lot of people, just Gu Zheng and Zhou Xin alone are enough to give them a taste of their own medicine. "Ji Yi agreed.
"Let's not talk anymore. Let's leave this place first. You guys go first. One by one." Gu Zheng said to them after seeing that there were no ambushes around them.
Everyone knew that time was of the essence. After a few breaths, the order was discussed. Leng Xin and Zhou Xuan flew up, and in the blink of an eye, the two of them disappeared before the group.
Behind them, after the person in front of them disappeared, the people behind them would immediately rush forward. However, with every breath, one person would leave. Soon, more than half of the group had left.
Just as everyone thought that they had successfully left, a loud roar suddenly came from behind them. At the same time, a blood-red stone stele emerged from the top of the mountain. A blood-red barrier enveloped the stone stele, isolating it from the seven-colored vortex.
One of them, who was slightly late, directly crashed into it without any warning. However, he was already unable to leave.
"Xiao Ying, bring your little cat and quickly return to the painting." Gu Zheng said to Xiao Ying with a serious face. A sense of danger rose in his heart. He didn't have the confidence to protect her in battle.
"Little cat, return to my house first. My house is fine. We'll come out after Young Master brings us out." Xiao Ying said to the quiet little cat on her shoulder. In the next moment, her figure turned into a stream of light and rushed into Gu Zheng's embrace.
On the other side, Song Shan had already flown to the edge of the barrier. He punched the barrier with all his might. However, he could only cause a large ripple on the barrier. He was still far from breaking through it.
The roar behind them was getting closer and closer. Clearly, the appearance of the blood-red stele was to prevent them from leaving.
