"Here?"
A few days later, a group of people flew over the mountain range. When they reached the back of the mountain range, they stopped. Starlord was at the front. He looked at the mountain peak in front of him, which was neither high nor low. It was not much different from the surrounding mountains, and said to the side.
"I can only confirm that this is the center. Within a radius of ten miles, I can't say for sure," Xie Wei said as he pointed in front.
"That's good. It's easy to find out from such a short distance," Star Tyrant nodded and said to the people behind him.
"The few of you, each lead a few people. First, chase away all the creatures that can be chased away, then bombard the place. It's impossible for the enemy to not have any defense."
The few people at the back were already prepared. After hearing the order, they immediately nodded in agreement. Then, they returned to the crowd at the back and led a few people to disperse.
"Don't worry, your Spirit Child is definitely fine. Once we kill our way in, we will definitely save her."
Seeing Gu Zheng looking at the surroundings with a serious face, Star Tyrant stepped forward and comforted him.
Gu Zheng turned his head and nodded, but his expression was still the same. This gave Star Tyrant a headache. Ever since he came here, he had never seen Gu Zheng smile. He turned around and asked Xie Wei why, but now it seemed that before he could save her, he would not be able to untie the knot in his heart.
"Rumble!"
Loud tremors began to sound in the surroundings. Feeling the deterrence of the aura, the creatures living below, from the birds to the insects in the soil, all ran out desperately. It was a spectacular sight.
Gu Zheng looked at the empty space around him. Everyone who could run had run away. After half a day, some people had already started a new round of attacks.
This time, a series of loud explosions rang out from below. Trees crumbled one after another, and large amounts of soil splashed out. Some of the mountain peaks even began to slowly collapse, completely submerging the ground below bit by bit.
This scene did not attract anyone's attention. Everyone was paying attention to their surroundings. Even if there was a slight difference, they would be able to detect it.
Even Gu Zheng began to observe the surroundings. Since the Tree Spirit said that this was the place, then it should be close. After all, the other party was using a part of it, so it could naturally detect the other party's location.
The only thing that worried Gu Zheng was that although there were so many of them, the other party was obviously not a persimmon. Once they found the other party's location, would they just give up their nest? They would definitely resist.
Moreover, Zhu Hun's figure flashed in Gu Zheng's mind again. The other party attached so much importance to this place. Obviously, it would not be defenseless. From the fragmented information he heard from Pan Xuan, this place was probably the place where the other party had high hopes....
The surrounding mountains were violently toppled, and everything was repeatedly investigated. Even if they had to dig three feet deep, they had to find the other party's location.

. Ding!
Suddenly, a crisp sound came from the sky, causing everyone to look in the direction of the sound. Somewhere, a huge black barrier had already risen, enveloping everything in the surroundings.
"Found it!"
Xing Ba's face immediately lit up with joy. He immediately flew over. Everyone behind him also rubbed their fists and followed him.
At the same time, everyone else stopped what they were doing. Since they had already found the other party's location, there was no need to waste any more effort.
This huge black shield completely covered the three nearby mountains. Just by looking at it from the outside, one could see how strong the defensive power of the shield was.
But no matter how strong it was, it was impossible to stop them.
"Could it be a smokescreen?" Xie Wei secretly asked from the side. What he got was Gu Zheng shaking his head.
The other party was in a relatively remote place. Coupled with their sudden attack, even if they wanted to use a camouflage technique, it would be impossible for them to not leave a trace. More importantly, the other party probably wouldn't do so because it wouldn't buy them much time.
Xing Ba had already given the order. The three people behind him had already flown forward. They each picked up the magic treasure in their hands and came to the top of the barrier.
Then, as if they had discussed it beforehand, the three people directly threw down the magic treasures in their hands without any warning and smashed them towards the barrier in front of them.
A huge ball of flame and two balls of golden light, carrying a light that couldn't be ignored, fell from the sky at an extremely fast speed and landed on the huge barrier.
Three huge explosions sounded from above, causing the entire black barrier to shake a little.
Before the explosion subsided, a new wave of attacks was launched. The attacks continued without pause. The three people above would launch a violent attack almost every breath of time. This went on for almost half a day before the three of them slowly stopped attacking.
At the same time, the other three people had already risen and flew to the other side. When their attacks fell down, the first three people also retreated and began to take medicinal pills in the crowd to recover.
This consumption only made them a little tired. They also knew that the enemy could appear at any time, so they had to maintain a strong fighting strength. They couldn't let themselves be powerless just to attack.
The others looked coldly in front of them, waiting for the other party to appear.
The second attack didn't take long at all. As the mountain in the middle emitted a large amount of black fog, figures flew out from below.
The one in the lead was a skeleton man wearing a black cloak. Beside him, there were almost a dozen skeletons dressed in the same way. Red flames flickered in their eyes, and black flames burned on their bodies. They looked like evil spirits that crawled out of hell.
As for the others, Gu Zheng narrowed his eyes slightly because there were a few ordinary people who didn't seem to be from the same place as the other side.
Among them, Gu Zheng saw Black Shadow, who had fought with him before, Zi Yi, who he had regained his connection with, and Pan Xuan, who would occasionally look in his direction. They were also among them. It was truly unexpected.
While Gu Zheng was looking at them, the other party was also looking over here. They also noticed Gu Zheng, but they were very tactful and didn't look at Gu Zheng at all. Like an ordinary person, they looked at Xing Ba who was at the front.
"You guys have finally come out. I thought I would be a tortoise for ten thousand years and hide inside." When Xing Ba saw the other party appear, his heart was slightly relieved. Judging from the people that appeared, the other party's strength was slightly weaker than this side. However, those people below Jin Xian were far away from the battlefield. They could only wait until they went in to play a role.
"Hmph, you guys found me very quickly. Since you are courting death, when my army comes out, all of you will face our wrath." The leader, Jin Yi, was also at the peak of the Grand Heavenly Realm. When he heard Xing Ba's words, the golden flames in his eyes kept surging.
"You guys won't be able to wait. This time, we will completely drive you guys back. You should know that the Wilderness of Chaos isn't a place where you can come and go as you wish." Xing Ba was about to move. At the same time, he signaled the people beside him to be ready for battle.
"Is that so? However, there are too few of you. First, you have to break the shield in front of you. Otherwise, you can only watch from the outside. "Jin Yi also said in a sinister tone.
This sentence gave Xing Ba a bad premonition in his mind because the other party didn't seem to have any intention of coming out.
And the next action of the other party proved this point. Those black skeletons stood still, and a black light curtain rose from their bodies, surging directly to the front. The barrier in front of them became thicker and thicker at a speed visible to the naked eye.
At this moment, the faces of the people here didn't look too good. The other party didn't intend to come out and was prepared to defend to the death.
Although this strengthened shield couldn't be defended under the attacks of all of them, it would consume too much energy. Once it was broken, the original advantage they had against the other party might no longer exist. It might even become a disadvantage.
But if they didn't use their full strength, they wouldn't be able to break the black shield in front of them. Everyone here knew this and was speechless for a moment.
On the other hand, Xing Ba took a step forward and continued to shout.
"You guys are so cowardly. Where's the courage you had when you destroyed our place?"
However, the other party didn't answer at all. The skeletons couldn't see the other party's expression, but Xing Ba still continued.
While Xing Ba was talking to the other party, Gu Zheng was communicating with the purple-clothed person in his heart. Not only did he know some things about them, but he also knew some things about this place.
"Uncle Xing, let's not talk to them for now. I already know all the information inside. It seems like we have to speed up." Gu Zheng glanced at Pan Xuan one last time, then stepped forward and pulled Startyrant, who continued to attack the other party, back.
"What's wrong? What's the situation inside? " Xing Ba asked after being pulled back by Gu Zheng. Seeing that the other party was like an old monk in meditation, ignoring him, Xing Ba felt a little annoyed.
"Because of our arrival, the other party has begun to forcefully open the passage. It seems like they want to send more people to chase us away first. So, no matter what, the other party won't come out and fight us head-on. However, there is a way to destroy the defense outside. The other party's core is inside, and the outside is just a smokescreen used to confuse people."
Gu Zheng ignored the hateful gaze and said to Xing Ba.
"But the other party is guarding the outside, and we can't enter. There isn't much we can do." Xing Ba pondered for a moment and said helplessly.
Even if he knew some things about the other party, the other party seemed like they wouldn't come out even if they were beaten to death.
Gu Zheng thought for a moment and said, "I'll go ask Xie Wei and see if he has any other ideas."
"Alright then. I'll continue to watch over them. At least I can restrain the other party." Xing Ba nodded. At the same time, he waved his hand and at least five people came forward. They looked like they were ready to attack at any time.
Gu Zheng came to the other side and asked Xie Wei, "Fellow Daoist Xie, I wonder if you can find the other party's weakness or directly enter?"
"This old man is a little regretful. I've been trying to find the other party's weakness ever since they came out. Unfortunately, my ability is limited. Plus, that place seems to be an independent space. After they covered it up, I couldn't find anything suspicious."
Xie Wei slowly opened his eyes and said regretfully.
Gu Zheng turned his head and saw the black shadow following him. He couldn't help but say firmly, "That's a pity. If it really doesn't work, we'll have to break the other party's tortoise shell."
"Hmm? I'll go to the back first. "Gu Zheng felt the strange movement in his arms and raised his brows. He then said to Xie Wei.
Without waiting for the other party's reply, his figure flickered and landed behind a mountain, completely blocking everyone's line of sight.
Feeling the heat in his arms becoming more and more tyrannical, Gu Zheng hurriedly took out Xiao Ying's picture scroll. This time, his expression suddenly changed.
This was because on top of the scroll, wisps of black fog appeared at the edge and were slowly descending. The entire scroll turned gray, and everything that came into contact with it seemed to have lost their lives, becoming deathly still.
Gu Zheng felt that this picture scroll seemed to be contaminated by some kind of power. He had a premonition that if the picture scroll was completely covered by the black fog, Xiao Ying would never be able to come back.
However, he didn't know what happened to Xiao Ying. He hurriedly grabbed the black fog in the picture scroll. A golden light flashed on it, trying to stop the other party.
However, the black fog completely ignored Gu Zheng's attempt to stop it and still steadily fell down bit by bit. The originally beautiful picture scroll had now turned gray and lifeless. The river above no longer flowed and was dried up. Even the picture scroll seemed to be a little different.
At this time, a golden light suddenly lit up inside. The cat, who had been resting in the middle, woke up at this moment. It quickly flew to the branch of the last tree and took out the lantern that Gu Zheng had hung on it. Then, it quickly went to the house below and hung it under the eaves.
After doing all this, the golden light lit up again and appeared in front of Gu Zheng.
This series of changes happened in the blink of an eye. Gu Zheng had almost forgotten about it. When he saw the picture scroll's strange appearance, his first reaction was to stop the other party.
"Kitten, what's going on inside?" Gu Zheng asked as he pulled his hand out of the picture scroll and looked at the tired cat.
"She's going to be demonized. Hurry up and save her. That lantern can help her buy more time. When the picture scroll is completely taken over by the black fog, she will completely lose herself." The cat turned around and lay on Gu Zheng's shoulder as it spoke weakly.
It could be seen that the cat still hadn't recovered. The overdraft and the special evolution seemed to have consumed a lot of energy. However, there were no other problems. It just needed time to recover.
Gu Zheng looked at the cat a few times. After confirming that it was fine, he looked at the picture scroll again.
This time, it didn't matter. His expression changed again because the black fog that had occupied a small part of the picture scroll had now taken over most of it. Only a corner of the last house was left.
The flame of the lantern lit up again, igniting a hazy green light. It bloomed in all directions, firmly guarding the last place and preventing the other party from invading.
"Damn it, where is Little Ying? How can this be? I haven't finished this picture scroll yet." Gu Zheng's face was somewhat distorted. He looked at the picture scroll that was about to lose its life and said fiercely.
"The other party is no longer in this world. However, I can feel my sister's aura inside." The cat's body that was originally lying on the ground suddenly stood up and said without any head or tail.
"Your sister? Your sister is also in the space in front? "
Gu Zheng understood the meaning of the other party's first sentence. It meant that Little Ying had left the Wilderness. He didn't know where she had been taken to. However, he was sure that Zhu Hun had arrived there through the transmission array. No matter where he went, there must be clues to find Little Ying. He had promised her that he would take good care of her. He had also promised her grandfather that he wouldn't let her be in danger.
"That's right. However, I wish to ask young master, exactly how long are you going to seal yourself? I can sense a seal within your body. In this chaotic era, why are you sealing yourself?" The little cat flew up and asked Gu Zheng.
"I'm sealing myself? How come I don't know about this? " Gu Zheng was shocked. He first forgot about the other things in his mind. Then, he quickly checked his body. There was no sign of a seal at all.
"Young Master, you can't find it even if you check because it's your own doing. It's not a seal of cultivation or something like that. It's just some memories. It seems to have affected part of your mind and caused some cognitive deviation in your understanding of the Wilderness. I don't know why." The cat continued to say.
"Don't continue to train in the mortal world. If you continue like this, you will really sink into oblivion. It will be very difficult for you to come out. Even if you are reluctant to leave and you are polishing yourself, you have to stop."
At this time, Gu Zheng suddenly remembered that someone had told him not to continue to stay in the mortal world and wanted him to go back. At that time, the other party had already seen through it. However, they didn't say it clearly. At that time, he didn't understand at all. Now, he finally understood a little.
"I don't know. Now that you mention it, my previous memories are indeed a little biased. However, if I'm the one who sealed myself, then it means that I have to be prepared. Naturally, when the time comes, it will definitely be unlocked. At that time, I will naturally understand."
Gu Zheng was silent. Then, he continued to speak. Although he remembered that at first, he was only looking for some ingredients to obtain the power of the Wilderness. He had always felt strange that a pair of hands made him unconsciously step into the mortal world. Now, he finally understood that those hands were his. He had done something to himself.
"I'm just a little curious. After all, I always feel that it's too difficult to be ruthless to myself." The cat continued to lie on Gu Zheng's shoulder and said.
"Hehe, you have also changed a lot. It seems that this evolution has brought you extraordinary benefits. In the past, you wouldn't talk so much." Gu Zheng also suddenly laughed. He threw his question to the back of his mind and said to the cat.
"Fellow Daoist Gu, Fellow Daoist Gu, I found something just now. I found something strange on the side. I think I can sneak in quietly."
At this time, a figure flew over from the sky. After seeing Gu Zheng, he immediately came down and said to Gu Zheng.
"That's great. Take me to see it." Gu Zheng had been here for some time. When he saw Xie Wei excitedly say this, a trace of joy appeared on his face.
"Let's talk about it later. For now, let's go find your sister and save Xiao Ying."
