The black cat looked at the fox demon in front of him cautiously.
He could feel a terrifying aura from the other party, causing the hair on his body to stand on end, as if a great disaster was about to befall him.
The feeling of death seemed to have choked his throat, making it difficult for him to even breathe.
"Who doesn't know how to talk big? Die. "
The black cat whispered. As soon as the word 'die' came out of his mouth, he rushed up again. At the same time, more than ten black cat shadows flew up from the side at the same time, making it impossible to tell which one was the real body.
He had always believed that the first to strike would gain the upper hand, and the last to strike would suffer. He was unwilling to give the initiative to others.
However, as soon as he got up, he felt as if he had fallen into thick water, and his speed was greatly reduced.
The other party was using the power here to trap him.
However, he did not care at all, and instinctively wanted to activate the power of the core jade. Only then could he break free from the other party's control.
However, what he did not expect was that the core jade in his body did not respond to his needs. It seemed that other than protecting him, there was no reaction.
This made him panic. An ordinary golden jade immediately appeared in front of him, turning into a golden light and entering the outer golden light of his body. Then, he fell from the sky.
As for his shadows, he did not have time to care about them.
However, while his body was still in mid-air, the fox demon grabbed at him from afar. The black cat, who had just broken free, immediately froze in mid-air, unable to break free no matter how hard he struggled.
"How is this possible?"
The black cat's panicked voice was heard. How could his movements be controlled by the other party in an instant? He took out an ordinary golden jade again, wanting to merge it with the core jade to strengthen the control.
However, just as it appeared, a force came from the side, cutting off the connection between it and the black cat. It flew far away, rolling on the ground a few times, making a few crisp sounds, and lying quietly on the ground.
The black cat was dumbfounded. He raised his head and looked at the fox demon in the distance. Those red eyes made him shudder.
However, before he could ask anything, his body flew up again, and then crashed heavily on the ground below.
Accompanied by a loud bang, a small pit was smashed out of the ground.
Then, his body flew again, crashing to the side.
Following that, a series of crashing sounds rang out and craters were smashed into the ground. The surrounding area became filled with potholes and there was not a single spot left unscathed.
After the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, the demon fox vented the anger in her heart. Only then did she slowly stop.
"What … what … is this?"
The black cat floated weakly in the air. Its entire body was soaked in the black liquid and it fell down like blood. It could not even utter a complete sentence.
He didn't care about the injuries from crashing into the ground, but in that wave of attacks just now, his body was constantly being hit by an invisible force, and he couldn't resist at all, which was the cause of his serious injuries.
"Do you want to know? Because you're too stupid. "
There was no expression on the fox demon's face because she felt that everything was boring. She had more important things to do, so she couldn't be bothered to talk nonsense with him.
"Even if I'm going to die, I want to die knowing!"
The black cat glared at the demon fox and squeezed out this sentence from between his teeth.
"You think I didn't do anything to that golden jade? You think I don't know that you instigated that idiot? I just didn't expect that idiot to barge in while my clone was fighting and ruin my plan. Otherwise, how could I be in such a sorry state?" The demon fox coldly said.
"This golden jade is bait, wah!"
The black cat didn't expect it to be like this. Unable to withstand the blow, it spat out a mouthful of black mist. It didn't even struggle anymore, and it was completely disheartened.
It didn't expect that after all the scheming, it would be the one in the most miserable state. It felt like everything it had done was for someone else.
Now, it just wanted to die completely, or at least not suffer too much torture.
"Of course, that's why I have to thank you for bringing it here. I have stored a lot of green jade energy inside, but unfortunately, I can't go out. With it, I have more confidence."
Saying this, the demon fox's face was filled with pride, as if she had completely fulfilled her wish all along.
"Even if I die, I won't give it to you!"
The black cat roared furiously. Seeing this opportunity, it stuffed the majority of the golden jade into its mouth, and the sealing ability disappeared.
The golden light around its body began to revolve and reform, returning to its original form.
As soon as it reappeared, the black cat used all its strength to raise its paw, and the golden jade core flew into the corridor.
Just what was the demon fox doing? Unfortunately, this golden jade core wasn't an enchanted treasure. Whoever held it could use it.
"You dare?!"
The demon fox's expression was no longer as proud as before. It roared in exasperation, and at the same time, it teleported over to take back the golden jade core. It no longer cared about the black cat.
But as soon as it moved, it saw that the cat was already blocking its path, and its body was shining with golden light.
It would rather die than be tortured. Furthermore, seeing its enemy's exasperated appearance in the end was also quite interesting.
If it devoured the golden jade core, it would definitely die. But before that, it had to drag the demon fox down with it. Even if it was useless, it had to stop the demon fox from obtaining the golden jade core. Even if it could delay the demon fox for a bit, it might still have a chance.
It thought of the person who had possessed its body. If that person knew that the golden jade core couldn't be used, and if they still had one, perhaps there really might be hope.
But it was truly unwilling to accept this!
BOOM!
A huge explosion occurred in the air. Even the demon fox didn't dare take the attack head-on. It hastily dodged.
But with this delay, the golden jade core had already fallen into the corridor and was quietly lying on the floor above it.
The demon fox circled around it and arrived in front of the corridor. Its red eyes were gloomy, and it unwillingly hammered down. A barrier suddenly appeared above it, blocking the demon fox's attack.
Looking at the golden jade core that was only a hand's length away, fury burned in its eyes. Its chest heaved up and down even more intensely. She regretted spending so much effort to block the black cat. It had died too easily.
She knew who had placed this barrier. She had been trapped here for countless days. She had also wanted to disregard everything in order to leave. But there were gains and losses. Leaving this place was also very simple.
It was to give up everything here.
Was that even possible?
Impossible!
No matter how powerful she was, she was still just one of the strongest members. There were many others who were not inferior to her.
She was ambitious. She even wanted to return to the Great Wasteland. This was her best chance. As long as she could control this place, she would have nothing to fear. She could even rule with Wen Tianhou.
"Phew."
She exhaled and calmed down. Even without it, she could still succeed. It was just that it would take longer and there would be more uncertainties.
But just as she was about to leave, her eyes widened.
That was because the jade core on the ground was slowly flying up on its own. It was as if someone had picked it up.
"It's you. You've always been here."
The demon fox only needed to turn its head to know why such a strange situation had occurred.
"I didn't expect that we would meet again. Your gift from before made me feel very pampered."
Gu Zheng's figure slowly appeared from the corridor. The golden jade core was hooked on his finger with a warm smile.
"Give me this and I'll let you leave this place."
The demon fox's face was as cold as frost. She naturally knew what Gu Zheng was talking about.
In fact, if it wasn't for that damned trace of will blocking her, the other party would have died long ago. Naturally, she would have taken back the things on her body.
"It's a little too late now. I'm a person who bears grudges. If someone makes me uncomfortable, I'll make them uncomfortable. If someone wants to kill me, then pay with your life."
Gu Zheng took a few steps forward and looked down at the demon fox in front of him. He said word by word.
"Good, good. I gave you a way out but you didn't take it. Then you can just wait for death!"
The demon fox's figure flashed and appeared in the distance. She wouldn't raise her head to look at the other party.
"Come up and hit me! If I don't resist, or if you let me beat you up and let me out, maybe I'll take pity on you and give it back to you. "Gu Zheng said to the demon fox with a look that was asking for a beating.
"I don't want to waste my time talking nonsense with you. Anyway, it's a dead end inside. If you have the ability, come down. But I think you've been here for quite some time. You must have seen what happened just now. Without the golden jade core, you'll end up like that black cat if you come down. Or rather, you're betting that you can completely control the golden jade in your hand."
The demon fox thought of the other party's situation and felt that she had the upper hand.
"As long as you return it to me before I change my mind, I'll definitely open up a path for you and let you leave. I think you know where I'm stationed. In fact, I can leave whenever I want."
"So that's how it is. But I'm a little curious. How attractive is this place to make people risk their lives? Why don't we discuss it? How about you leave this place and give it to me? I'll definitely reward you handsomely."
Gu Zheng took a step forward and walked out of the corridor. At the same time, he spoke.
Seeing Gu Zheng walk out, the demon fox's eyes narrowed. Then, she laughed.
"You're walking right into my trap. Then, you can't blame others. I've seen many arrogant people, but this is the first time I've seen someone as arrogant as you."
"Perhaps." Gu Zheng shrugged his shoulders and a golden light shone from his body. "Coincidentally, I have a golden jade core with me. I'll keep your golden jade for you. Who knows, I might be able to use it."
From the battle just now, he had understood a little. He was glad that the black cat was so kind. It used its life to let Gu Zheng know how to use the golden jade core. It even took away his golden jade core so that he wouldn't be fooled.
If Gu Zheng had come down first, there might not have been any resistance and he would have been taken care of by the demon fox.
But now, with the black cat's selfless sacrifice, he had a lot of confidence. Now, he just had to see how strong the demon fox was.
Out of the eight tails, only five were left. Plus, the green crystal was damaged. This was his confidence.
Seeing the golden light on Gu Zheng's body, the demon fox thought of what she had just said. Her face darkened. Without any warning, her tail started to dance. Balls of white light appeared from her tail and flew out from behind her tail towards Gu Zheng.
Those white dots of light, while still in the air, had already rapidly expanded, turning into white boulders that were several dozen feet in size. White flames burned on them, and like meteors, they smashed towards Gu Zheng's direction.
The demon fox knew that since the opponent had the golden jade core, her biggest advantage was gone. And her pet was just a joke. At that time, she didn't think that there would be a fisherman behind her.
But whether the fisherman would have the last laugh, she wouldn't allow it.
When Gu Zheng saw this, he was also shocked. Killing without a second word was really what he wanted.
But he also knew that his ordinary methods couldn't hurt the demon fox. Just like the ghost, he needed the power here to kill it.
Immediately, he dodged to the side and took out a golden jade in his hand. Soon, it turned into a long sword.
When the white meteorite saw Gu Zheng dodge, it also turned in the air and rushed towards Gu Zheng.
Gu Zheng didn't think of this. When he wanted to turn and leave again, it was a little too late. A huge meteorite had already smashed down.
"Boom boom boom!"
A series of huge explosions rang out once again, and the white flames that filled the sky burned fiercely on the ground. The ground that was already full of potholes now looked even more terrible.
A figure suddenly jumped up from below. The weapon in his hand slashed in the air. He actually cut the meteorite in half and broke out from the meteorite rain below.
Seeing the demon fox in the distance, Gu Zheng didn't say anything. He raised his weapon and flew towards the demon fox. At the same time, he waved his hand in the air and the five jade bracelets flew out. Although the jade bracelets couldn't hurt the demon fox, they could still hinder the demon fox's movements.
Seeing Gu Zheng fly over, the demon fox's hand flashed with white light and a white sword appeared in his hand. Although it looked completely different from Gu Zheng's, it was also formed by the power here.
The figure shook slightly and a total of six demon foxes appeared below. Every one of them had the same aura. Gu Zheng couldn't tell which one was the real one.
He didn't think that the demon fox would also have a high-level clone technique. However, it seemed to be much stronger than the black cat. He couldn't see any flaws at all.
With this slight delay, the demon foxes below rushed up and surrounded Gu Zheng in the middle. They all attacked at the same time.
The five rings circling around each of them cried out. Their bodies turned into different colored shields and blocked the demon foxes at the side.
Gu Zheng, on the other hand, charged towards the last possible original body, slashing at it.
In the next moment, six sounds of metal clashing rang out in the air.
The five jade bracelets couldn't block the demon fox's surprise attack at all. They were all sent flying. Gu Zheng's hand was also shocked. He faced the demon fox in the air. The weapons in their hands were still touching in the air. No one could do anything to the other.
This made Gu Zheng shocked. From the feedback of the five rings, the demon fox's strength seemed to be similar to the one in front of him. No wonder he couldn't block the demon fox's attack.
After sending the jade bracelets flying, the demon foxes at the side had already surrounded him.
"Bang!"
A dazzling white light exploded in the air. All the demon foxes suddenly stopped in place and pretended to cover their eyes. Among them, five of them melted like snow under the sun. Including the demon fox in front of him. Only the demon fox on the right was still in the air. However, it was still slightly affected.
Without waiting for Gu Zheng to make a move, the demon fox's figure disappeared. It was as if she teleported and appeared in the distance.
"I didn't expect you to still have this thing. It seems like that traitor has provided quite a lot of information about me." The demon fox frowned.
This was her famous technique. However, it was easily broken by the other party here.
"Not a little, not a little. I still have dozens of them. If you come a few more times, I will use them all up." Gu Zheng was grateful to Wu Fan. Otherwise, he would really be at a disadvantage.
The other party's technique was strange. It seemed like all six of them were real bodies, but they weren't real bodies. No matter how confident he was, he would definitely fail if he couldn't break through the six of them.
His probing just now couldn't find the other party's flaw in a short time.
However, with the white crystal, the other party's trump card was wasted.
"So what if I have that? A mere early-stage Grand Luo. I will let you see how powerful I am!"
The demon fox didn't bother to argue with the other party. As she spoke, a ball of white flame appeared in her hand and she threw it into the air.
"Boom!"
Resplendent flames exploded in the air. Balls of white flames bloomed in all directions like a blooming white lotus. It looked very beautiful.
However, Gu Zheng didn't have the time to appreciate the fatal beauty. Under his control, the five jade bracelets that were sent flying had already landed in a designated location in the distance. This was his trump card.
Because if he wanted to kill the other party, he needed the power here. However, if it was so easy, he wouldn't have occupied this place all the time. First, he had to trap the other party. If he couldn't even catch the other party, how could he hurt the other party?
Even if the golden jade absorbed a large amount of green energy, it wouldn't be able to last for too long. Ending the battle quickly was the most appropriate method.
The only pity was that he didn't find any of the things that could stop the ghost. Otherwise, if he threw it, even if it was only for a breath of time, the other party would be at his mercy.
That was a good idea. However, the white flames in the air were already like a drizzle, densely falling towards Gu Zheng. He didn't even have the space to turn around.
Gu Zheng waved his hand and a golden barrier rose up. At the same time, he quickly flew into the air.
After the white flames bloomed once, they didn't disappear. They returned to their original appearance. In just two breaths, they bloomed once more in the air.
When the white flames landed on Gu Zheng's golden barrier, they exploded even more violently. The huge impact almost knocked him down.
The power wasn't very great, but there were a lot of them. He couldn't dodge even if he wanted to.
He just steadied himself and adjusted his position to avoid those as much as possible. Braving the countless white flames, he quickly approached the top.
How could the demon fox let Gu Zheng do as he pleased? At the same time that Gu Zheng moved, she also charged forward and launched an attack from the side.
When Gu Zheng was in the air, she had already arrived at his side. The white flames seemed to know who the enemy was and automatically avoided her.
She wanted to deplete all of Gu Zheng's energy. Without the golden jade, it was like scratching teeth without teeth. The other party couldn't hurt her at all, and she was in an invincible position.
Even if the core golden jade had a lot of energy, it would only take a little more effort.
Thinking of this, the fox demon attacked Gu Zheng.
