In the blink of an eye, another fifty years had passed.
At this time, Gu Zheng, who was like a fossil, finally opened his eyes. He exhaled faintly and slowly stood up.
After decades of treatment, he had consumed several precious elixirs to speed up the recovery of his injuries. Although the elixirs were somewhat wasted here, Gu Zheng didn't want to waste a long time to treat the chronic injuries in his body.
Otherwise, it would take at least ten times longer to achieve a complete recovery.
As Gu Zheng twisted a few times and took a few deep breaths, his body emitted crackling sounds. Looking around, the surrounding scenery didn't change much.
And the kitten was still sleeping as expected. After a careful examination, Gu Zheng felt relieved.
This time, it was all thanks to the kitten's help. Otherwise, he would have been able to run away when facing that freak. He was really too strong. This was the strongest person he had ever seen. He was so strong that Gu Zheng couldn't believe it.
But now he understood why. It was because the person in the other party's space definitely didn't just increase his strength. Otherwise, he wouldn't have had no reaction at all. Compared to the other party's strength, he felt like he could crush the other party. After all, Long Tian's strength was about the same, but he didn't have such great power.
Of course, Gu Zheng wasn't referring to the Dragon Clan's Long Tian below, but the former Black Dragon Long Tian. Previously, he thought that the other party's strength was already very high. With a comparison, he found that the other party was strange.
But it was all in the past. In any case, he had the last laugh.
Now, apart from these decades, he didn't know how much time he had spent down there. But it was definitely not as exaggerated as down there.
Right now, he had a lot of things to do. But first, he had to release Xiao Ying.
Gu Zheng took out the image from his bosom. At this time, he could clearly see a red light covering the surface of the scroll. And it was still the same as before. Xiao Ying was still running outside with an anxious look.
He gently raised his hand, and a layer of golden light covered the surface of his palm. Then, he gently wiped the surface of the painting.
Gu Zheng was very careful, fearing that he would damage even the slightest bit of the painting. Every time he wiped a piece of the painting with his palm, that piece of red light would vanish without a trace, and the scenery inside would once again sway slightly. After half a day, the last bit of red light in the painting disappeared, and the entire painting suddenly expanded.
Very quickly, a figure rushed out from inside. With a grab of her hand, the lantern was also caught in her hand as she shouted at Gu Zheng.
"Young Master, be careful!"
"What's there to be careful of? Look around you!" Gu Zheng felt warmth in his heart when he saw the other party's worried face, but he did say so.
"Eh, where is this? How did I end up here? "Xiao Ying looked at her surroundings. It was completely different from her previous appearance. At the same time, she was dumbfounded.
"Alright, didn't I tell you to stay inside? Why did you think of it again? " Gu Zheng looked at the other party and said unhappily. Although the other party's actions moved him, she did not listen to him, which made him grit his teeth.
"I've been here all this time. However, when I saw you suddenly fainted and fell from the sky, I wanted to come out and catch you. However, just as I moved, a strange power suddenly restrained me. It was only a few breaths later when I realized that the power had disappeared. Of course, I had to come out," Xiao Ying said as she looked at her surroundings.
At this moment, the weather was bright and sunny. It was completely different from the previous scene, and a confused expression appeared on her face.
"Where is this place? Was I hallucinating just now? "Xiao Ying asked embarrassedly when she saw Gu Zheng's deliberately serious expression.
"You're not hallucinating. I've already come out of that place and arrived at a new place. In any case, it's over, and there's no danger. You can just wait outside."
Gu Zheng did not give the other party a detailed explanation. However, he had promised to release the other party once he dealt with Uncle Gao. Now that the matter had come to an end, it was time to fulfill his promise.
"Oh, I know. What's wrong with the kitten?" Xiao Ying nodded. In any case, it was fine as long as the young master was fine. That was what she thought. She looked around and placed the kitten on Gu Zheng's shoulder.
"It's fine. There are some opportunities on it. As long as it has enough time to rest, it'll be fine." Gu Zheng placed the kitten down and handed it to Xiao Ying.
"That's good. It seems I've missed out on a lot." Xiao Ying took the kitten and gently stroked it.
Whoosh!
At this moment, a white figure in the distance let out an extremely fast sound in the air, and grabbed at Xiao Ying's body.
"What is this? It's so cute! " Xiao Ying watched as a small fox flew into her hand from afar. It firmly guarded the kitten in her palm behind its back and bared its fangs at Xiao Ying with a ferocious look.
However, in Xiao Ying's eyes, it was just a cute creature. She did not feel threatened at all.
"Don't mess around. It's one of us and the kitten's friend." Gu Zheng understood the little fox's thoughts. He also understood that it could understand his words.
Just by spreading the medicinal energy, it was enough to increase its intelligence by a large step. Although it could not reach the level required for true transformation, it was enough for it to understand his meaning.
When the little fox heard that, its attitude immediately changed. It actually began to lick Xiao Ying's hand.
"Keke!"
Feeling the ticklish sensation in her palm, Xiao Ying smiled happily. Then, she placed the two of them on her shoulders at the same time. She turned her head and curiously sized up this snow-white little fox.
After dealing with this one, Gu Zheng let out a sigh of relief. Next, he needed to take out his weapon. That lone wolf really had guts. It actually dared to take away his weapon. It really didn't know the difference between life and death.
It should have been an easy matter. However, when Gu Zheng sensed it, he found that it did not go so smoothly.
Although his connection with the Cloud Desolate Sword was not broken, he could only sense that it was not far from him. He was unable to sense its exact location.
It really was strange. How did that little black wolf have the ability to block the Cloud Desolate Sword? It was truly strange.
Gu Zheng's Divine Sense began to expand rapidly in all directions. In the blink of an eye, everything within a radius of ten thousand li was clearly imprinted in his mind. However, he still could not find the location of the Cloud Desolate Sword.
"Interesting!"
The corner of Gu Zheng's mouth curled up into a smile. He wasn't worried that his weapon would go missing. Unless the weapon was damaged, the connection would always remain in his heart. Even if the almighty was sealed, he would still be able to sense the other party's existence. It was impossible for him to completely lose track of the other party.
However, this also reminded Gu Zheng that he could only roughly sense the other party's location. He could not isolate himself from the other party's seal. If he was thrown into a strange space, he might be able to sense the other party's presence but not their location.
"What's wrong? Did something good happen? "Xiao Ying, who was playing with the little fox, saw Gu Zheng's smile and took a step forward.
"No. Don't tell me you have nothing to do. I'll give you a task. Go find the place where this stone is glowing. When you find it, just tell me." Gu Zheng took out a small white stone and said to Xiao Ying.
"What is this?" Gu Zheng saw Gu Zheng's smile. It seemed that he did not lose anything.
"It's nothing. I just happen to need to do something here. I need some time. Slowly search outside. No matter what happens here, come here. There might be a big commotion." Gu Zheng thought for a moment and instructed Xiao Ying.
"Okay, I understand." Xiao Ying seemed to understand. After taking the stone, she walked outside.
There was no danger on this island, so Gu Zheng did not need to worry about her safety. What he needed to do next was wake Li Le up. After that, he would have nothing else to do. He needed to refine the magic treasure in his hand and quickly leave this place. He still had to explore the stars. This was something that Gu Zheng had not forgotten.
He had promised Xiao Ying something, so he would definitely fulfill it.
When Gu Zheng saw the other party leave, he walked towards the surroundings and began to make some arrangements. Only then did he reach out and grab something that looked like a weed above his head. He carefully took it down.
Although it looked like a weed, there was a very small flower bud at the top. It was only the size of a fingernail, and it looked like it could bloom at any time.
Li Le's aura was extremely weak. It was like a candle that could go out at any time. Only a weak candlelight was left, but outside, there was a storm that wanted to completely extinguish it.
But the wind liquid was protecting her heart, resisting the mysterious power. It made her seem like she could go out at any time, but she was always strong.
Gu Zheng knew that under normal circumstances, Li Le's life would have been exhausted. Even if she came out and came out again, she would not be able to resist the loss of her life.
But in the whole of the Wilderness, there were only a few people who could come back to life after death. Other than the Phoenix Clan, no one else had grasped the mysteries of this.
However, whether Li Le could change the shackles of her fate depended on herself. Gu Zheng could not do it.
Carefully placing the flower in the center, Gu Zheng began to busy himself. Gu Zheng used his magic power to carve lines on the ground. At the same time, he buried one crystal after another.
Three days later, Gu Zheng's busy figure finally stopped. At this time, the ground was covered with complicated patterns, and in the center was Li Le's body.
"It's time to start."
When Gu Zheng saw that everything was perfect, he retreated outside of the area and muttered to himself, "That's right.
As his voice fell, he shot a ray of light into the sky and disappeared.
A moment later, a ray of silver light the size of a bowl suddenly fell from the sky and landed on Li Huan's body in the center.
"Boom!" A light sound was heard.
This silver beam of light seemed to have opened the curtains. Around it, rays of silver light lit up continuously, following the lines that Gu Zheng had already drawn. At the edge, a huge silver shield about ten feet tall appeared. It formed an oval shape and covered the nearby ground, protecting Li Le.
On Li Le's body, a large amount of red light was emitted. At the same time, an exuberant aura was emitted from the shield that was full of star power, embellishing it with many red lights.
As the medicinal power of the wind liquid was completely released, Li Le, who was on the verge of death, began to grow at a speed visible to the naked eye.
In just a few breaths of time, the weed-like Li Huan had already grown to a height of several tens of feet. On the thick branches, there were even buds of flowers that were about to bloom, and they were blooming as they grew.
Soon, when it was still a distance away from the shield above, it finally stopped growing. However, its body, which was like a hundred-year-old tree, was like a flower bush, blooming with all kinds of flowers.
Almost all the types of flowers that one could see could be found. However, no matter the flower type, they were all bright red.
This did not last for long. After only a few breaths, those beautiful flowers began to wither quickly, falling from the branches.
Not only the flowers that filled the sky like falling leaves, but even the roots that were full of vitality just now also seemed to have reached the end of their life, falling limply to the ground.
In a time twice as fast as before, the lush flowers had already withered, and everything returned to the weeds.
However, if one looked closely, they would find that the originally sickly weeds now had a little more vitality than before.
Soon, as the red light in the sky was absorbed back, the weed-like Li Huan grew crazily again.
Grow, wither, grow, wither.
The cycle of life of a flower kept appearing in front of Gu Zheng. He did not know the mystery, but he could feel a trace of Nirvana in it.
Although it was not as good as a real phoenix, in this alternative method, it could still exert a mysterious effect.
With every cycle, the life that had disappeared long ago was once again injected into Li Le's body, allowing her to recover bit by bit and become more energetic.
Seeing such a magical side, Gu Zheng was full of praise. It could be seen that in the past, the Dragon Phoenix Clan dared to fight for the Heaven and Earth Providence with a small number of people. They were really too strong. At that time, even the Goblin did not dare to compete with them.
Here, the cycle continued. The weed-like Li Le was now like a newly born flower. With every cycle, a layer of filth would fade from her appearance.
After a short half a day, she, who was originally like a weed, was now like a tender green seedling, still growing rapidly in the cycle.
"Now is the time."
Gu Zheng's eyes flashed, and when Li Le's outer layer of clothing was completely removed, his hands began to rapidly form hand seals. Inside the shield, more and more Star Force seemed to be guided and began to pour into the sprout at an extremely fast speed.
Not only that, but a silver pillar of light the size of a millstone appeared in the sky and shot down. This phenomenon could be sensed by anyone within a radius of 10,000 miles.
However, no one dared to come here to check. At a glance, it was obvious that there was a senior cultivating. If they disturbed him, it would be disastrous.
The boundless power of the stars surged into the sapling like a vast sea of stars, providing it with great help.
Originally, it could only grow a little during the cycle, but with the influx of starlight, it grew more than ten times. Almost every cycle made it jump.
At this time, the power of the wind liquid was rapidly weakening. Even if it was refined, the amount was too little. This was also the reason why Gu Zheng took action.
Now, the speed of reincarnation was greatly reduced, and even the number of flowers that could bloom had decreased. However, Li Yue's body was still growing rapidly. Some branches had already stretched out from his body to the side, and a red flower bud had appeared at the top.
Thump, thump!
The sound of a heartbeat suddenly echoed in the air, which made Gu Zheng overjoyed. The star power above his head shone even more brilliantly and accelerated the infusion.
Half a day passed once again, and after the last cycle, countless red lights scattered in the air. The power of the wind liquid had completely disappeared.
But now, the sea of flowers had grown to the same size as before. At the top, there was a small house-sized flower bud, and the rhythm of a heartbeat was steadily coming from it.
With Gu Zheng's help, Li Le finally completed her transformation. Of course, this was also due to her hard work. Otherwise, it wouldn't have been so perfect.
Gu Zheng finally withdrew the spell in his hand, and the silver light pillar in the sky and the radiance on the ground also slowly faded.
As the flower bud slowly bloomed, a familiar figure appeared inside.
But Gu Zheng only took a glance before hastily turning around. That Li Le was actually naked, which was really out of his expectations.
Rustling sounds came from behind him, and soon, Li Le's voice came from the side.
"Thank you for your help, Young Master. I can't repay you for saving my life."
Gu Zheng turned his head and saw Li Le in a snow-white dress gratefully looking at him.
"That's your fate. Besides, it was just a small matter for me, not worth mentioning."
Gu Zheng waved his hand. He was generally willing to help if he could. Of course, it also depended on the person. At the very least, he wouldn't even spare a glance for those vile people who died in front of him.
"That's true. But without your help, I wouldn't have been able to reach this step. Not to mention, you helped me advance my cultivation. This way, I'll have at least 500,000 years of life to squander." Li Le smiled at Gu Zheng.
"Only so much time? Although the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi has shrunk quite a bit, it should be easy for you to enter the Grand Heavenly Realm. After all, it's different now. There are many things that can assist you. "Gu Zheng was a little surprised. He didn't expect her to have such a short lifespan.
It seemed like a lot, but in fact, it was just a blink of an eye.
"If not for your help, I would only have tens of thousands of years. After all, being able to live is already a blessing in disguise." Li Le didn't feel anything. Instead, she rejoiced.
Compared to the group of companions who went in, she was the only one left. Or rather, there weren't many people who could live until now.
At least for her, there was still a chance to fight for it.
"That's a good way of thinking. You're now in the late Jin Xian Realm. Follow me for a while to get to know me better. After all, that era has passed. Work hard. After you enter the Grand Heavenly Realm, the world will be yours to roam again."
Gu Zheng looked at her with appreciation. Ordinary people wouldn't have such open-minded thoughts like her.
"Then I'll have to trouble you, Young Master."
Li Le smiled and didn't reject Gu Zheng's good intentions.
