"Senior, this is the place, but the road is a little messy, please don't mind."
At the edge of a cliff on the island, the Little Goblin pointed at a small cave in front of them and said to Gu Zheng and the rest.
It was no wonder that Xiao Ying did not find this place previously. If there was no one to guide her, she would not be able to find him in such a secretive place. It was almost hidden in a place that no one would find.
"No worries, lead the way." Gu Zheng looked at the cave in front of him and waved his hand to let him lead the way.
When his divine sense explored the depths of the cave, he had completely lost contact with it. It was indeed a little strange.
Li Le and Xiao Ying looked at each other and obviously discovered that there was something unusual inside. Their eyes revealed a look of interest. They really wanted to know what was so mysterious.
"Hurry up and get lost, I'll deal with you later." The Little Goblin kicked the black wolf away and then led Gu Zheng and the rest inside with a smile.
Just as they entered the cave, an extremely unpleasant smell hit them in the face. It was like the stink accumulated from not bathing or cleaning for hundreds of years. Xiao Ying immediately rolled her eyes and rushed outside, inhaling the sea breeze outside.
On the other hand, Li Le and Gu Zheng only frowned slightly and did not react to the stench.
"Senior, my cave is a little unsightly, I can't entertain you." The Little Goblin was already used to it and did not feel anything at all. He said as he led the way.
Gu Zheng glanced at Xiao Ying, who was outside, before continuing to walk inside. After Xiao Ying calmed herself down, she closed her mouth and stopped breathing before walking in as well.
Even so, she still felt waves of nausea, as if the stench was constantly touching her skin, but at least she could endure it.
After walking for a short while, they passed through a tunnel that was hundreds of meters long and arrived at a spacious cave.
This was a natural underground cave. There were some plants emitting a blue light around it, so it did not seem so dark. There was also an underground river in the distance, with the sound of flowing water. They did not know where it led to.
Contrary to their expectations, there was a weak sea breeze, which made the place less stuffy.
However, Gu Zheng and the rest weren't paying attention to the Little Goblin's residence. In one of the more messy areas, Gu Zheng saw the device that had shielded him.
It was a small sprout that had only reached the size of Gu Zheng's ankle. The emerald green aura of life constantly rose from it, and anyone who stayed near it could feel the tranquility in their hearts.
"I don't know where this thing came from either. In the past, when I fought against people as powerful as you, I panicked and came here to hide. With its company, I was able to reach this point. However, this thing is clearly still weak. Right now, I can no longer obtain any benefits from it."
The Little Goblin pushed the trash to the side and said to Gu Zheng.
Gu Zheng looked at it for a while, but he didn't know what it was. He looked at Li Le and saw him shaking his head. Clearly, he didn't know what it was either.
That was strange. Li Le was a Flower Goblin, and in theory, he should know more than he did. However, he didn't know either.
Regardless, Gu Zheng couldn't leave such a good thing here and waste it. However, it was still too young, and he didn't know what it would be when it grew up. However, it definitely wouldn't be simple. Therefore, he said to the Little Goblin beside him.
"You don't have any objections if I take this thing away, right?"
Although it was a question, the Little Goblin knew that he only had one choice. There was no room for him to refuse. He naturally knew what to do.
"It's my honor that Senior can see this thing. You can take everything here away."
"Don't worry, I won't take your things for free." As Gu Zheng spoke, he flicked his finger forward. A sparkling light shot out from his fingertip and entered the Little Goblin's forehead in the blink of an eye.
"I'm going to die, I'm going to die!"
When the Little Goblin saw Gu Zheng move, he thought that Gu Zheng was going to kill him. He couldn't help but shout in his heart. At the same time, his body fell limply to the ground.
His cultivation was basically brought to him by the sapling. Besides his strength, he didn't know anything else. He was also incomparably timid. Otherwise, he wouldn't have taken the initiative to apologize to Gu Zheng.
"What's wrong with him?"
Xiao Ying finally looked away from the sapling. When she saw the Little Goblin on the ground, she also fell into a tranquil atmosphere. At this time, she saw the Little Goblin's lifeless eyes twitching on the ground. He looked frightened, but he didn't have any injuries. She couldn't help but ask curiously.
"It's fine. He might be too surprised. He'll be fine in a while. Li Le, keep this thing first. You can study it later," Gu Zheng instructed Li Le.
Li Le nodded and walked over. He was going to carefully transplant the sapling and not hurt it.
"Thank you, Senior. Thank you, Senior."
At this moment, as memories continuously flowed into his mind, the Little Goblin finally understood what it was. It was actually a pretty good Martial Technique. This made him go wild with joy. He didn't even know how to cultivate it. He directly rushed over and almost knelt down in front of Gu Zheng.
"Cultivate properly. Do not do anything that offends the heavens and reason." Gu Zheng slightly moved away from the other party before instructing.
"Yes, yes, I'll definitely listen to Senior's instructions," the Little Goblin immediately said as he patted his chest. He was so excited that he didn't know what to do.
"Let's go," Gu Zheng looked around and said to Li Le, who had finished packing.
"Senior, Senior, I still have a treasure. I don't know what it is, but it's something that Hei Lang brought back. I don't know how to use it either. See if you can use it."
When the Little Goblin saw that Gu Zheng and the others were about to leave, he suddenly thought of something and shouted at Gu Zheng.
"Oh? What is it? " Thinking about how the Hei Lang had dared to steal his weapon, Gu Zheng thought that the ignorant were fearless. Perhaps there really was something, he thought.
"Wait a moment, I'll take it out for you."
The Little Goblin climbed down from the ground and quickly ran over to a resting place. It seemed to be his usual resting place.
"Because this thing is very soft and warm, I pressed it under it."
The Little Goblin said as he rummaged through the cabinets.
"This is it. Senior, look."
The Little Goblin held an item as if he was presenting a treasure and ran over again. However, when he got close to Gu Zheng, he respectfully stopped outside and raised the item in his hand.
Gu Zheng didn't pay much attention at first and asked Li Le in a low voice. However, when he saw the item from the corner of his eyes, his gaze froze and he stared at it. His eyes were filled with confusion, doubt, and shock.
"Isn't that a feather? I can't tell what it is? "
Xiao Ying walked over from the side and stretched out her hand to take the red feather that looked like a fan. Although it looked very big and seemed to have fallen from a bird-like creature, there wasn't anything special about it.
The only thing special about it was that when she held it in her hand, there was a warm aura coming from it that made her feel as if she was beside a warm stove. It was very comfortable.
"Where did this thing come from?" Gu Zheng ignored Xiao Ying and asked the Little Goblin.
"A few thousand years ago, I had just found this place. At that time, three huge creatures suddenly appeared in the sky. One of them was black and couldn't see anything. The other was a huge white bear and a huge firebird. They fought a few battles not far away, and then the Hei Lang picked this up on the island."
The Little Goblin looked at Gu Zheng's serious face and quickly explained.
"What's wrong? Do you know the owner of this feather? "Li Le noticed something from Gu Zheng's expression and couldn't help but step forward to ask.
Gu Zheng took a deep breath and looked at the Little Goblin before continuing to ask, "Yes, if I remember correctly, I know the two people that the other party mentioned."
"Where did they go after that?"
"Senior, I really don't know. At that time, I had just gained sentience. Furthermore, the other party's cultivation was higher than Senior's, so I couldn't detect any traces of them. They just disappeared in front of my eyes." The Little Goblin looked at Gu Zheng's anxious expression and said carefully.
"It's been a few thousand years. That's too long. Even I can't find any traces of them, let alone her," Li Le comforted from the side.
Gu Zheng nodded slowly. He understood that Li Le was right. It had been too long, and who knew what had happened?
"Forget it, let's leave." Gu Zheng shook his head and didn't ask any more questions. He led Xiao Ying and the others outside.
Soon, they left the cave and returned to the island.
"What are we going to do next?" Li Le asked Gu Zheng. She had already decided to follow Gu Zheng for a while and leave when it was about time to familiarize herself with this world.
"Next, we're going to …"
"Ah, ah!"
Just as Gu Zheng was about to say something, Xiao Ying's surprised shriek suddenly came from the side, interrupting Gu Zheng's words.
"What's wrong? Why are you so happy? "Gu Zheng looked at Xiao Ying's joyful expression and asked in confusion.
"It, it can find us." Xiao Ying pointed at the feather in her hand and said happily.
She had been holding on to the feather this entire time because it didn't have much use. Gu Zheng wouldn't use it to find the other party. Besides, if it wasn't an expert, how could it find the other party so easily?
The other party wasn't some random cat or dog. She had the Phoenix bloodline and her cultivation made it impossible for others to spy on her.
"Who can find who? I don't understand. "Gu Zheng looked at the other party and said in confusion.
"It's it, it's the little fox." Seeing that Gu Zheng didn't understand, she picked up the little fox in her hand and jumped in front of Gu Zheng. She raised the little fox and pointed at it with her other hand.
"What's wrong with it?" Gu Zheng still didn't understand what she meant and asked in confusion.
The little fox, who was originally proud of itself, was about to be praised. However, when it heard Gu Zheng's words, it became anxious. It struggled out of Xiao Ye's hand and went to the feather fan. It pointed at it and began to cry.
"You're saying that you can find the owner of this feather?" Gu Zheng didn't understand, but he could tell what the other party was trying to say.
"That's right. Although the other party's scent has disappeared, it has a special way to sense the other party's location." Xiao Ying explained from the side. The little fox also quickly nodded, indicating that Xiao Ying was right.
"If that's the case, then you've done a great service." Gu Zheng was overjoyed. He already knew where he was. He actually ran to the North Continent.
Seeing the existence of the divine bird, he also wanted to find Elder Xiong to talk about the old days. He originally thought that he would return home and continue his investigation in Aurora City.
The last time he came out of the Sword Mausoleum, he followed Pan Xuan to help the Blue Medicine Sect. In the end, he was interrupted and ended up here. He really didn't expect it.
Of course, Xiao Ying in front of him didn't know what Gu Zheng was thinking, but she still said it.
"Of course it's true. Otherwise, why would I be so happy?" Xiao Ying's eyes narrowed into slits as she said to Gu Zheng with a smile.
"Mm, then let's set off immediately." Gu Zheng directly ordered.
The three figures immediately rushed into the sky. Under the little fox's finger, they moved quickly in a direction.
The little fox didn't know where the other party was, but it followed the judgment in its heart and with its special ability, it directly led Gu Zheng to the west.
And to the west was the closest piece of land to here.
In less than half a day's time, they had already stepped into the sky. Above their heads, dark clouds covered the entire sky, making the entire world seem somewhat dusky.
At this time, the little fox was already standing on Gu Zheng's shoulder, directing Gu Zheng's direction. It also prevented Gu Zheng from increasing his speed because every once in a while, the little fox would be able to sense again. And from the looks of it, there was a limit to the number of times it could do so.
Just three times, and one could see the exhaustion on its face.
Seeing this, Gu Zheng had no other choice. He could only try to let the little fox sense when it was about time.
Li Le and Xiao Ying followed behind him. However, Gu Zheng noticed that there was a faint Buddhist light on Xiao Ying's body. She was using this time to cultivate, which made him a little surprised.
He also knew that Xiao Ying was neglecting her and wanted to find an opportunity to talk about it. He didn't expect the other party to know, which made him feel relieved.
After an entire day of hard work, they finally stopped because the little fox needed to cultivate.
They casually found a place to rest for the night before continuing on with the little fox.
The place they were at was considered a remote place in the North Continent. As far as the eye could see, there was a field of white snow everywhere. There weren't even many ordinary creatures. It was extremely desolate.
Unknowingly, snowflakes the size of goose feathers fell from the sky again. Accompanied by the whistling of the wind, their figures did not stop.
.....
In an endless mountain range that reached into the clouds, snowflakes fell from the sky constantly. Whether it was the forest or the ground, everything was covered in a layer of silver.
However, the animals and plants that lived here had long been accustomed to this place. Such cold weather could not stop them from coming out to look for food.
In this area, snow covered most of the year, and there were only a few months when the sun shone brightly.
A snow-white creature that looked like a rabbit quietly walked out of its cave. After looking around and confirming that there was no danger, it quickly flew away along the soft ground, leaving only faint footprints on the ground. However, the footprints were quickly covered by the snowflakes again.
Little did it know that behind it, a similarly snow-white tiger slowly got up from the snow after it left and quietly followed it.
Soon, the rabbit stopped at the foot of the mountain. It nimbly pricked up its ears and dug at the relatively thin snow under its feet. Some tender grass was pressed under it and exposed as it moved.
Looking around vigilantly, the rabbit lowered its head and began to nibble on the grass slowly. At the same time, its ears kept moving slightly. However, it did not realize that not far behind it, a white tiger was quietly approaching it.
As long as it got a little closer, it would be able to eat for the next few days.
However, suddenly, a few figures flew over from the sky. Although they flew over their heads, they still startled the rabbit below. It instantly discovered the white tiger lurking beside it.
This frightened the other party quite a bit. Without another word, it quickly ran towards the mountain peak.
How could the tiger watch the other party escape? It no longer hid and also chased after the other party.
The two began a common chase in the mountains. Some of the panicked rabbits, seeing that it was about to be caught by the white tiger, suddenly found an empty cave in front of it. Although there were layers of snow covering the outside, it still jumped in without hesitation and drilled inside.
There was a soft "poof" sound.
The rabbit drilled into the snow and continued to drill inside. The white tiger was stunned. Without another word, it began to sweep the snow and chased after the rabbit. The rabbit was seeking its own death. When it reached the ground below, it would not be able to run even if it wanted to.
However, as the gap grew bigger and bigger, when the white tiger saw a dark cave entrance below, it could not help but be stunned. The rabbit had actually run in.
After a slight hesitation, it also rushed down. However, just as its head entered the cave, it saw the prey it had chased before lying on the ground, trembling.
The white tiger was overjoyed and rushed up, wanting to kill the other party. However, just as its entire body entered, a huge pressure came from the front. It could not help but imitate the rabbit and lie on the ground, not knowing what had happened.
"Sigh, they still found it in the end."
With a faint sigh, the two of them quickly fled.
The white tiger, who had recovered its ability to move, did not even look at its prey. It directly flew outside. However, just as it took off, a figure suddenly landed beside it. The next moment, it lost consciousness.
"I didn't expect the other party to be hiding here. It seems that this white tiger has contributed a lot." One of them looked at the cave entrance in front of them and said slowly.
"We worked so hard to find it. Without this beast, the other party would not have been able to hide for long. It deserves to die." Another person said with a snort.
"Don't talk nonsense. The other party is now in an injured state. Be careful not to lose your life." A dignified voice sounded. Clearly, it was somewhat dissatisfied with the other party's attitude.
"Of course I know. However, I believe that with Lord leading the way, there will definitely be no problem. If it wasn't for the commander chasing after the white bear, it would be much easier."
"Don't talk nonsense. Follow me."
The four figures were prepared and rushed into the cave at the same time. However, they did not meet the figure. Instead, they found a passage deep in the cave that led to an unknown place.
The four of them looked at each other and then carefully began to rush in.
