"Rumble!"
Just as he came out of the white circle of light, the vibration coming from outside gave Gu Zheng a big fright.
Shouts of killing, as well as the aftershocks of the battle, made the entire cave seem as if it was about to collapse.
However, although they had left the cenotaph, this place was still a small space, not a real mountain in the sense of the word. Otherwise, it wouldn't be able to withstand the battle of those people.
"Why are there so many people outside?" Brush lowered its body in the sky and said softly.
Even here, they could feel the astonishing battle aura, as if countless people were fighting.
"You should lean on my shoulder and be careful. Kitten, if there's a need, you can also help." Gu Zheng also said to Kitten.
Although his battle strength was low, the key was that his talent was still more useful.
Kitten nodded, indicating that it understood, and closed its eyes again, quietly lying on Gu Zheng's shoulder.
Although Brush wanted to show off, after feeling the movement outside, it obediently stood on Gu Zheng's shoulder.
Gu Zheng looked outside, then glanced to the side, and then walked out.
The passage here didn't look much different from before, but it was obvious that there were a lot more branches, and they were all connected together, making it a big maze. However, he didn't ask anything else, and directly approached the place of the battle, but how to ask his own people about the situation first.
Just as he appeared from a corner, a demon soul wrapped in black fog suddenly appeared in front of him. The other party was stunned at first, then two pairs of sharp claws directly slashed through the air, grabbing towards Gu Zheng's chest and head.
"Bang!"
Gu Zheng only punched, and this somewhat weak demon soul was beaten to death. However, although this one was dead, there were more demon souls behind, and they rushed over here. Even if the demon soul in front died, the ones behind continued to rush over as if they were running for their lives.
What made them somewhat happy was that the demon god didn't stop them, allowing them to escape smoothly.
Very quickly, the three familiar figures behind him also caught up. Gu Zheng hurriedly came out and stopped them.
"We're on the same side, don't attack!"
Gu Zheng's sudden appearance scared the three of them, and one of them was about to pick up his weapon and attack Gu Zheng, but he was quickly stopped by his companion.
"Young Master Gu, so it's you. That's great, Elder Xie Wei told us to find your whereabouts and let you meet up with them. They are now attacking the main road, and we are defeating these Little Goblin on the side." The person in the middle who stopped the attack said excitedly.
"What's the situation outside? How many people came in total? "Gu Zheng first asked the situation outside.
"A total of four elders came in, the rest are fighting with the Demonic Souls outside, but there will be reinforcements coming in at any time. As for us, nearly twenty people came in one after another. The defense here is not very strict, so we split up to completely kill these Demonic Souls." That person continued.
.. is........ and...........
Following their instructions, Gu Zheng quickly rushed back, and the three of them continued to chase after the Little Goblin.
"Why don't we chase after the Imperial Jade Seal? The Chaos Goblin took the Imperial Jade Seal at all costs. He must be doing something shady," Brush whispered.
"They are definitely doing something. That thing is definitely not small, and its defensive power is definitely not weak. If we follow them, it will be much faster than if we search blindly. More importantly, it is very safe. We can't assume that they don't have any defensive power here," Gu Zheng said without stopping.
"I'm a little anxious. That's true." Brush thought about it and changed his words.
According to the person's instructions, after turning a corner, Gu Zheng stepped onto another path, which was obviously much wider. At the same time, he found Xie Wei's aura, which made things easier. He followed the aura and traces along the way and continued to chase after Xie Wei.
"There's space."
Gu Zheng, who was sprinting, suddenly stopped and looked at Xiao Mao beside him. Xiao Mao had already stood up. When he saw Gu Zheng stop, his body lit up with a golden light.
Then, Xiao Mao stretched out his paw and pressed in the air. A golden paw appeared in the air, and then slowly floated to the side of the wall. Finally, it stuck to the wall, which was very eye-catching.
"There's something here," Xiao Mao said again, and then he didn't say anything else.
Gu Zheng looked at the wall and heard the sounds of battle in front of him. He thought for a while and decided to see what was here first. The other party was so secretive, so it was worth seeing.
Feeling the hardness of the wall, Gu Zheng took a deep breath and then raised his fist and punched it.
There was a huge vibration, and a few slightly bigger stones fell. The entire wall didn't even have a mark. The wall seemed to be even harder.
"Put your hand on it!" Xiao Mao's voice sounded again, and he couldn't help but laugh.
Although he didn't react, he found it funny when he saw Gu Zheng's awkward expression.
"What are you laughing at?"
Gu Zheng said in a bad mood, and at the same time, he pressed his hand against the paw on the wall.
As soon as the two came into contact, Gu Zheng's body was instantly sucked in and disappeared into the stone wall in front of him.
"This is?"
Gu Zheng's figure appeared in a huge cavern. It was circular in shape, with a very high ceiling in the middle. The rest of the cavern was empty. Only in the middle was a railway that fell from the ceiling. Under the illumination of several burning torches, a half-dead figure could be seen lying on top of it.
Below him, there was a water tank that was constantly emitting a foul smell. It was placed on a stone platform that was half the height of a person. Wisps of black fog were constantly rising, slowly lingering around the figure.
Gu Zheng's pupils shrank, and then he looked around. There were no enemies in the surrounding dark places. In other words, he didn't find anything suspicious in this empty cave. There were only the burning flames in front of him and the figure on top of it.
"Who is that person?" The brush flew up from Gu Zheng's shoulder and asked quietly.
"Starry Sky!"
Gu Zheng slowly walked over, and at the same time, he was vigilant of the surroundings. He didn't expect to find the other party here. In fact, he really thought that the other party was dead. Now it seemed that he was still alive, but he didn't know the specific situation.
In fact, the figure couldn't be seen at all. It was the faint aura of the body, the gourd in the corner, and the black water in the water tank that confirmed the other party's identity.
"Oh, I don't know him. Be careful." The brush said in realization. At the same time, it flew back to Gu Zheng's shoulder, afraid that the enemy in the dark would take care of it first.
Gu Zheng didn't let down his guard at all. Although there was a battle outside, and perhaps the Monster Souls that were guarding inside had already gone out, it was better to be safe than sorry.
However, when he came to the middle of the cave, there was no abnormality in the surroundings, which made him even more cautious.
A cold light flashed in the air, and the essence chain that bound Starry Sky's feet was suddenly cut in half. His body fell straight down, and just as he was about to fall into the water tank below, Gu Zheng pulled his hand, and his whole body floated down not far away.
At the same time, Gu Zheng also left the platform and landed next to Starry Sky.
Looking at the black smoke and the strong stench of the other party, as if he hadn't taken a bath for hundreds of years, Wu Qi waved his hand. A stream of water appeared out of thin air and rushed toward the other party.
It was not an ordinary stream of water, but the seawater of Yu Miao's space. Of course, it could not only clean the other party's appearance, but also wash away some of the Demon Aura that had contaminated him.
At this moment, the other party's appearance was finally revealed. Although his face was almost completely covered with pale scars, and was almost unrecognizable, it was still possible to tell that he was Starry Sky.
Gu Zheng stepped forward and put his hand on the other party's body. After a careful examination, a look of surprise appeared on his face.
"What's wrong? Has he been demonized as well? "asked the brush next to him in a hurry.
"That's not the case. Apart from being heavily injured, he hasn't been demonized. You should know that demonizing a normal human is extremely difficult, especially for those with strong wills. It's basically impossible." Gu Zheng placed a precious bullet into Xingxing's mouth before speaking.
"That's right. He has been like a dead duck all these years. Not only is his mouth stubborn, but his Divine Soul is even more stubborn. No matter what we do, we can't make him give up. If it weren't for the fact that we wanted to pry open his mouth and find out how to use the gourd, he would have been dead long ago. Why bother torturing his soul with Yin Water?"
Before the brush could answer, an ethereal voice suddenly rang out in the air, as if it was coming from all directions.
"Who is it?!"
Gu Zheng stood up abruptly and looked around. However, he could not find any trace of the other party, not even a trace of strange aura. It was as if the other party was not here at all.
"I'm just his watcher." The voice did not sound as aggressive as the Demon Soul, and seemed to be easy to talk to.
Gu Zheng stood up and said, "The battle outside is so intense. Why aren't you going out to help? Instead, you're looking at this person who has no fighting power at all."
"Although I'm in the same place as the other party, I'm not one of them. I only owe someone a favor, so I'm here to help stabilize the space here. I'll be happier if they're all dead. Even if this place is destroyed, it doesn't matter."
The voice said casually, as if it did not care at all.
"Are you that surprised? Even below, not all Demon Souls are cruel, vicious, and selfish. Although most of them are like that, there are still many who have no intention of going down and did not get involved. "
The voice could see the surprise on Gu Zheng's face and could not help but laugh.
"Don't be fooled by the other party. Which Demon Soul isn't evil? Who do you think you can fool with this kind of bewitchment?" Before Gu Zheng could say anything, the brush next to him suddenly spoke.
"A spiritual object? Interesting. It's really rare. " The voice's tone was slightly surprised. After all, it was not a weapon spirit. It was formed after birth, so it was really rare to encounter one.
"No matter what your attitude is, if you're not willing to fight to the death for the other party, then I'll take him away." Gu Zheng said at this time.
"Impossible. I promised that person that I would not let him leave. However, if you wait until all of the Demon Souls outside are killed by you all, then I will be free. If you all leave, I will not stop you in the slightest." That voice rejected Gu Zheng's suggestion.
"Then you mean, you won't let me." Gu Zheng said expressionlessly.
"You're right. After all, it's a promise to the other party. As long as you don't take him away, you can heal him here. I won't stop you. But if you want to take him away, then I'm sorry."
The voice still said indifferently, but there was a hint of warning in the tone.
"Kitten, let's go!"
Gu Zheng did not care about the other party's threat and shouted at the kitten.
The kitten nodded and clawed forward again. A cat claw appeared in the air and flew towards the wall.
That place was not the entrance, but Gu Zheng did not understand the profoundness of space. He held his weapon with one hand and grabbed the claw with the other as he retreated towards the wall. As long as he could leave this place, if the other party dared to follow, he would let them know what it meant to be surrounded.
Xie Wei and the others were outside. Any one of them could deal with the other party, provided that the other party's strength was not too strong. However, it shouldn't be too strong. There should be some kind of restriction that prevented the other party from summoning a Demon Soul of a certain cultivation. Otherwise, why would there be a Demon Soul of the same cultivation as Xingba? The stronger, the better.
"Want to leave? I've said it before. You have to get my permission first. "The voice was slightly angry and shouted at Gu Zheng and the others.
At the same time, the Yin water in the water tank in the middle started to boil violently, as if something was about to come out. The strange beasts carved on the sides also opened their mouths and spat out black smoke, creating a spectacular scene.
Seeing this scene, Gu Zheng quickened his steps and sneered in his heart. The other party was moving so slowly that by the time they came out, the flowers would have withered. He did not fully believe the other party's words. Perhaps the other party was right, but what did it have to do with him?
However, when he was still a few steps away, he suddenly felt a gust of Yin wind behind him. He quickly turned around and found that the golden cat claw print on the wall had disappeared.
"The other party took it off," the kitten told Gu Zheng in an emotionless voice.
"Haha, did you think that the middle was where I was hiding? I was just trying to attract your attention. I thought that you were proficient in the power of space. If you want to leave, don't even think about going through me." The other party's complacent tone sounded again, causing Gu Zheng to gnash his teeth in anger.
Previously, he really thought that it was the other party's hiding place. It was just the other party's trick. That aura just now, even he did not notice it. In the end, he was fooled.
"Kitten, again." Gu Zheng stood outside the wall at this time and said to the kitten again.
He was so close to see how the other party would act under his nose.
"The other party has reinforced the space, so we can't use the previous method to leave." The kitten rarely spoke a long sentence, but it brought news that gave people a headache.
"Is there any other way to leave?" Gu Zheng said. He really did not want to waste time here, especially the situation outside. It might be a new situation at any time. Because ever since he came out, a faint sense of danger lingered in his heart.
"Yes, time, no interference." The kitten said cleanly.
"Then you start directly, I'll block the other guy." Gu Zheng also directly ordered. At the same time, a layer of golden light emitted from his body, like a torch, illuminating the surroundings.
The kitten nodded. Its body was still lying on Gu Zheng's shoulder. A faint golden light also emitted from its body, and the power of space slowly condensed around it.
"Huala"
At the same time, the sound of water crashing suddenly came from the water tank in the distance. A black water immediately rushed out of it, forming a dozen black ropes and attacked Gu Zheng.
On the torch next to him, the flames were also floating in the sky by an invisible big hand. They gathered together and formed a large fireball. It spun rapidly in the air. Small fireballs the size of a fist fell from above like rain, smashing towards Gu Zheng from all directions.
Looking at the attacks in the sky, Gu Zheng's face revealed a sneer. Then, a golden light shield directly propped up. Those attacks that fell on it could only shatter one after another like an egg hitting a stone. It did not have any effect at all.
"This is the last warning. If you don't stop, don't blame me for being impolite." The voice was obviously not as relaxed as before, shouting at Gu Zheng.
"Come if you have the ability. I want to see how impolite you are." How could Gu Zheng be frightened by the other party? He also coldly retorted.
"Swoosh"
Just as Gu Zheng's voice fell, a gray shadow suddenly appeared behind Gu Zheng. At the same time, a gray cold light flashed in the air in an instant, chopping towards his shoulder, wanting to completely interrupt the kitten's magic.
However, Gu Zheng did not let down his guard from beginning to end. After all, an unknown enemy was hiding in the dark. It was absolutely impossible for him to relax even if he wanted to. His reaction was also very fast. His whole body twisted and turned. Not only did he leave his position, but he also quickly turned around in the air, preparing to attack behind him.
But just as Gu Zheng turned around, his hand froze. Because there was no one behind him. It was as if that attack was just an illusion.
He was stunned, but that unknown enemy was not stunned. A gray fog quietly appeared beside Gu Zheng. It formed a fist sized shape and ruthlessly attacked his side.
"Bang"
With a loud sound, Gu Zheng's body suddenly flew towards the center.
Gu Zheng, who was in mid-air, abruptly swung the Cloud Desolate Sword in his hand. Streams of chaotic sword energy appeared in the air around him, completely covering the surrounding space to block his opponent's next attack.
However, Gu Zheng's action was clearly unnecessary. The enemy did not seem to intend to chase after Gu Zheng. Starry Sky, who was originally sleeping on the ground, was slowly picked up at this time. At the same time, a gray shadow stood behind him and said to Gu Zheng.
"If you want to try to take him away, then I will have to kill him first."
"Is that so? Then do as you wish. "Gu Zheng looked at the other party. The Sword Qi that filled the sky scattered and he said with a sneer.
"What?"
The gray shadow was a little surprised. Then, he saw Starry Sky turn into specks of golden light and dissipate. And in another corner, Starry Sky's figure appeared again. However, this time, the other party was surrounded by a layer of golden light.
In the next moment, his figure directly disappeared.
