The disappearance of the formation core made this place look the same. However, they knew that this place was completely exposed to the outside world. If any powerful enemy came, this place wouldn't be able to stop them.
However, this place was only half-built and there weren't many people here. Other than them, the rest of the place was probably empty. There wasn't anything worth paying attention to.
Gu Zheng and Song Shan quickly returned to Goddess Yu Fei's place. As soon as they stepped in, a familiar voice came from the entrance of the palace.
"You guys came back so quickly. Did everything go so smoothly? Goddess Yu Fei woke up a while ago. Everything is fine and she's waiting for you guys. "
Gu Zheng and Song Shan looked at each other and didn't answer directly.
"What's wrong? You look unhappy. Don't tell me you failed? Where's the formation spirit? Was it controlled by the other party? "
Brush saw Gu Zheng and Song Shan come here and was puzzled. He couldn't help but think.
"No, the Chaos Demon is dead. The matter is more or less settled. We're here to take you guys out of here." Song Shan said.
"I knew it. With the formation spirit taking action, everything will be fine. Now that he's returned to the formation core, we can be completely at ease." Brush followed Gu Zheng and Song Shan into the palace and said with relief.
"The formation spirit was sacrificed. The heroic spirit and the Chaos Demon were also sacrificed. The formation disk was also shattered." Gu Zheng paused for a moment but still said it.
Even if he didn't say it, when they left, they would know what had happened when they saw the scene.
"How could this be?!" Brush was stunned and said in disbelief.
"That's the truth. The Chaos Demon was too cunning. Otherwise, all of us would have died!" Gu Zheng stopped and said to Brush as he watched Song Shan enter the room.
"Goddess Yu Fei, please take this spiritual jade with you. I'll take you out of here and find His Majesty!" General Song knelt on one knee and said to Goddess Yu Fei solemnly.
"Why should I leave? I want to stay here and wait for him to come find me. Hasn't the matter been settled? Is there still any danger? "Goddess Yu Fei's eyes were filled with doubt.
"I'm sorry. The formation spirit has sacrificed himself for everyone. This place is no longer safe. All the defenses have been destroyed." Song Shan lowered his head and said. At the same time, he roughly explained the situation. The medicine boy and maidservant beside him were in disbelief. They didn't expect the outcome.
"This is the last item of the formation spirit? Sigh! "
Goddess Yu Fei looked at the spiritual jade in front of her and sighed.
.............................................................................
Although Goddess Yufei was stronger than Song Shan when she was alive, the present her was only a slightly stronger spirit. Before the injuries sealed in her body were completely healed, she did not have any strength at all. She was also unable to continue cultivating. Otherwise, once the injuries in her body erupted, she would be reduced to ashes.
. "Since that's the case, let's leave this place." Goddess Yu Fei looked at Song Shan and reached out her hand to receive the spiritual jade.
Like her palm, the spiritual jade shone brightly and disappeared from her palm. The next moment, it turned into a pendant that hung in front of her chest.
Layers of milky white light shone from it as a warm aura filled the surroundings.
As the white light gradually faded, the spiritual jade also calmed down. It looked like an ordinary pendant. Even if one looked at it, they would think that it was just an ordinary item. However, to Goddess Yu Fei and the others, that special wave still existed to strengthen their spirit bodies.
"There are still many dangers outside. Please be careful, Goddess. Gu Zheng and I will protect you and leave this place together." Song Shan stood up and said respectfully.
"I know. The stronghold of the demons is outside. I'll have to trouble you then." Goddess Yu Fei nodded and stood up from the chair behind her. She followed Song Shan outside.
At this moment, Gu Zheng and Brush were speechless as they waited for Song Shan and the others to come out.
"Goddess Yu Fei, Formation Spirit and the others …" Brush saw them come out and said from inside.
"I already know. Now is not the time to be sad. Let's leave this place together." Goddess Yu Fei interrupted Brush's words to show that she understood what had happened.
"Empress Yu Fei, there's no need for you to be too worried. My companions have already entered. Most of the demons have already been entangled. We'll be able to leave this place very smoothly," Gu Zheng said with a smile.
With the destruction of the formation core, the outside must be in a mess. They had a lot of people. He believed that Star Tyrant would find a way to let some of them in.
"If that's the case, it's indeed much safer. Thank you for your trouble." Goddess Yu Fei looked at Gu Zheng and said politely. But as soon as she finished speaking, her expression changed. She pointed at the kitten on Gu Zheng's shoulder.
"How did it come out?"
The kitten shook its head on his shoulder. It was too obvious.
"What a coincidence. Goddess Yu Fei, do you know it? It has been with me for a long time. "Gu Zheng looked at her strange expression as if she shouldn't have seen the kitten.
"Do you know where my sister is?" The kitten also asked.
"She has been with you for more than a hundred years? That's bad. Follow me. "Goddess Yu Fei took a deep breath and forced herself to calm down.
After saying that, she hurriedly walked into the depths of the palace.
Gu Zheng didn't expect her to have such a big reaction. It was as if she had lost something important.
"Don't look at me. I don't know either!" When the maidservant saw that the others were looking at her, she immediately jumped in fright. She said something to them and quickly followed behind the Imperial Concubine.
Gu Zheng was also very puzzled. But he could only bury the question in his heart. He followed Goddess Yu Fei to the back with everyone.
Everyone walked for a full fifteen minutes before they reached the deepest part of the palace.
Unexpectedly, the deepest part wasn't a bedroom. Instead, it was a huge back garden. It was just that there weren't any flowers. But they could still see the distribution. This should be a planned garden.
Goddess Yu Fei's figure didn't stop at all. She walked straight to the pavilion on the right. But she didn't go in. Instead, she searched outside the courtyard.
Everyone watched as she searched bit by bit. It seemed like she wasn't sure where she was looking for. She searched almost half of the periphery before she found it in a hidden corner.
"Rumble!"
It seemed like Goddess Yu Fei had triggered some mechanism. The fake mountain in the distance actually separated in all directions. It only allowed two people to walk side by side. A dark secret tunnel appeared in front of everyone. There were rows of stairs that led down. It was at least ten feet deep.
"What's going on?" Gu Zheng looked at Goddess Yu Fei as she returned to them. He was confused.
"Follow me first. I will explain to you later." Goddess Yu Fei said to them. Then, she walked into the tunnel.
When everyone saw this, they could only follow behind her and walk inside.
Song Shan immediately threw out a white ball of light. He led the way in front of Goddess Yu Fei and lit up the tunnel below.
The tunnel wasn't very long. After going underground for a while, they reached their destination.
The reason was that Goddess Yu Fei would lead them to another place. But when everyone walked in, they realized there was another tunnel. There was also a noise behind them. It completely blocked off the way back.
"There's still some distance. Everyone, be patient." Goddess Yu Fei spoke again. She led everyone forward.
Gu Zheng was even more confused. Where was this secret place going?
Things didn't go as smoothly as before. It was difficult to walk, and there were many forks in the road. But Goddess Yu Fei was very familiar with them. She quickly led everyone out.
"Where is this?" Gu Zheng looked around and couldn't help but ask.
This was a small secret room. There was a locked door in front of them. There were walls all around. There was only one exit behind them.
"Only I know about this place. No one else can find this secret place. That is why I am so anxious. This is a treasure room. I wasn't planning on coming here." Goddess Yu Fei said as she took out a gold key. She walked towards the only door on the other side.
Creak.
Goddess Yu Fei opened the door and said to them, "Since we are here, let's take the things inside. We can't come here empty-handed. Even though there isn't much inside."
Everyone walked in and saw a room that wasn't very big. There were only two rows of shelves. There were some things on them, but they weren't full. Just as she said, there were only a few things. But every one of them was good. For people like Jin Xian, they were treasures.
There was another tunnel in the distance. They didn't know where it led.
But what attracted Gu Zheng the most was the shelf on the right. There was a transparent crystal box. It was only the size of a plate, but there were five drops of liquid of different colors inside. It was the purest Five Elements power. He didn't know where such pure Five Elements power came from. It was very rare.
"Don't mention it. After we leave, we won't be coming back. Take whatever you need. Otherwise, we will stay here." Goddess Yu Fei smiled. Although she couldn't hide the anxiety on her face, she still spoke to Gu Zheng.
"Thank you very much, Your Highness." Gu Zheng saw that Song Shan had already picked up a new weapon. Seeing this, he didn't stand on ceremony. He thanked Goddess Yu Fei and walked over.
Gu Zheng didn't put it away. Instead, he opened it and took out his five jade bracelets. They floated in the air.
The five jade bracelets seemed to know something. Their bodies trembled slightly. At the same time, a suction force came from them. They sucked in the water droplets of each element.
The five different colored Five Elements water droplets fell into the five jade bracelets. It didn't cause any ripples. It was like raindrops falling into the sea. There weren't any waves.
But Gu Zheng smiled. These five drops of pure Five Elements power would slowly merge into the bracelets in the future. It would strengthen the power of the jade bracelets.
"I've already taken them. Whether or not they are useful, you can keep the rest." At this moment, Song Shan walked over and said to Gu Zheng.
At this moment, Song Shan was wearing a set of exquisite light armor. At the same time, there was a black spear on his back. It seemed like he had found another set of weapons and armor.
Gu Zheng looked around and realized that only a small portion had disappeared. It seemed like Song Shan had deliberately left them for him.
However, there were very few items here to begin with. There weren't many left.
"Then I won't stand on ceremony."
Seeing this, Gu Zheng didn't reject. He knew that the other party was thanking him for what he had done previously. Gu Zheng quickly swept away the remaining items.
"Alright, let's continue." Goddess Yu Fei waited for Gu Zheng to finish before saying again.
At this moment, Gu Zheng still didn't know what the other party's goal was. However, she clearly didn't want them to come here to take the treasures. She had already said that she had no intention of taking these items.
Soon, they passed through the tunnel and arrived in a vast cave. There was only a small house in the distance. Everything else was empty.
Outside the small house, there was a door that shone with golden light. There were two pictures on it. It seemed like two cats were on it. They looked similar to a kitten.
Seeing this, Gu Zheng was shocked. He then looked at the kitten that had been asked to hide.
"Where are the cat guards?"
Goddess Yu Fei walked halfway and shouted at the door.
As Goddess Yu Fei's voice fell, two golden lights flashed out from the door. They landed on the ground and turned into two cat demons. They looked exactly like the kitten.
"Sister?"
The kitten's doubtful and certain voice sounded in Gu Zheng's ears. At this moment, it was hiding in accordance with Goddess Yu Fei's figure. No one could see it.
"Nothing happened while you were guarding, right?" Goddess Yu Fei looked at the two of them with sparkling eyes and asked.
"Reporting to Goddess, everything is fine. No demon soul or enemy came here." The cat spirit on the right said in a deep voice.
The voice was exactly the same as the kitten's. However, it seemed much more mature than the kitten's.
"That's good. Little Lian, did you find anything strange here?" Goddess Yu Fei nodded and turned to ask the cat spirit beside her.
"There's nothing out of the ordinary. I'll go and maintain it every three days. Is Your Highness here to take it away this time?" The cat spirit called Little Lian also asked doubtfully.
"No, I have some questions for you. Come here." Goddess Yu Fei said to Little Lian.
Little Lian nodded. Just as it was about to fly over, something strange happened. The cat spirit beside it flashed with a black light and reached out its sharp claws to grab Little Lian. The latter didn't expect this at all. It froze on the spot and even turned its head to look at the source of the danger.
Although Gu Zheng had his suspicions, he didn't expect the other party to suddenly attack. However, even if he was prepared, at such a distance, he couldn't react in time. The other party was too fast and the distance was too short.
Although they couldn't react in time, there were others who could.
A golden light flashed on Gu Zheng's shoulder. The kitten on it disappeared. When it appeared again, it was in front of Little Lian. It also clawed at the other party.
Bang!
The other party's power was not as big as the kitten's. In addition, the other party's unexpected appearance caused it to fly backward. At the same time, its body exploded in the air and turned into a black cat-like monster.
It had six claws and three tails. Its body was covered in a faint black fog. Its sharp teeth could be vaguely seen. It roared at the kitten.
"Little … Little Brother, who is it?" Little Lian was scared silly. It only reacted when the two sides finished fighting.
"Sister, it was him who attacked me and severely injured me. He even threw me into the space crack. In the end, I hid in Master's Sword Mausoleum by accident. However, I lost some of my memories." The kitten seemed to remember everything. Its eyes were red as it looked at the demon cat. When it heard Little Lian's question, it spoke.
"Goddess Yu Fei, is this kitten supposed to guard this place? What is behind it? " Gu Zheng now understood why she was shocked when she saw the kitten. It was obvious that the main guard had been replaced.
"To be honest, the most precious imperial jade seal is here. That was why I was so excited. If I didn't see it, I would have thought that there was nothing to worry about here. I was going to keep it here." Goddess Yu Fei explained to Gu Zheng.
"My king's imperial jade seal is here. I didn't expect it," Song Shan muttered.
"Sister, be careful. You go back to Goddess Yu Fei first. I will deal with the other party first." The kitten shouted at Little Lian. After it finished speaking, it pounced at the demon cat in the air.
Compared to before, it was more than twice as strong. Facing its enemy, it was of course very jealous.
In the air, the heart mark on the kitten's forehead lit up. A red flame suddenly shot out.
The demon cat looked at the wheat in front of it with a serious expression. Its tail swayed gently, and three black mists quickly flew out. They quickly formed a black mist in front of it, blocking the red light.
However, the kitten clawed at it. The demon cat's face changed. Its body exploded into a black mist and disappeared.
And at its original position, four black marks flashed past.
When the demon cat appeared on the other side, one of its claws had disappeared. The demon cat's face revealed a trace of fear. It did not expect the kitten to be so strong.
It had been bullied by the demon cat before. Now, it seemed that it could not even last a few moves against the kitten. The pride it had before was completely gone.
"Meow!"
The little cat let out a loud cry and the bell beneath its body shook gently. The eyes of the demon cat in the distance suddenly turned sluggish. After that, the little cat swiped one of its sharp claws at the void. Ripples could be clearly seen forming behind the demon cat as a black crack slashed towards the demon cat.
In the nick of time, the Demonic Cat's sluggish eyes suddenly became clear. Then, it looked at the little cat with resentment and turned into a cloud of black fog again. At the same time, a black round hole suddenly appeared in the void, and the black fog went in headfirst.
However, it left a black tail in the air.
The kitten saw that the demon cat was trying to escape. Just as it was about to give chase, it was stopped by Gu Zheng.
"Kitten, don't chase. The demon cat's level is not much lower than yours. If it wants to run, it won't be easy to catch it. What if it is dangerous?"
The demon cat's talent was about the same as the kitten's. It was no wonder that the adorable Little Lian did not notice it. Gu Zheng looked at it a little more and knew that if he wanted to kill the demon cat, he had to be prepared. Otherwise, it would be easy for the demon cat to escape.
The kitten's body paused in the air, and it slowly descended. It came to Little Lian's side and said happily.
"Sister, I'm finally back. I missed you so much!"
