"What are you laughing at?"
The Great Elder walked closer from afar and asked Gu Zheng.
"What you said is almost exactly the same as what the person who left said."
Gu Zheng had a smile on his face as if he did not know the situation he was in. He pointed at the direction where Young Master Yuan left and said.
"Oh? How did you answer? "The Great Elder was taken aback for a moment before asking with great interest.
"My answer is that the villain dies because he talks too much. Therefore, the other party has no chance." Gu Zheng said honestly.
"That's right. It makes sense. However, I want to see how we will die if I talk too much." The Great Elder deliberately said slowly.
The surrounding people immediately smiled. Some of them could not help but laugh out loud.
That's right. There were only two people on Gu Zheng's side. One was a late-stage Human Soul while the other was an early-stage Human Soul. Only he had some combat strength.
After all, there was only one Peak Grand Heavenly Realm and a few late-stage Grand Heavenly Realm experts. Although the rest of them were relatively weak, they could still be of some use. Not to mention, there were even stronger forces above Luo Shan that could come down and support them at any time.
However, there was probably no need for support. With their strength, they could only deal with two people. If they let them escape, then the entire Luo Shan would lose face.
"Yes, you're right. Even if you guys talk nonsense here for a hundred years, none of you will die. However, by then, I will have left."
Meng Zhen looked at the calm Gu Zheng. He did not know where the other party's confidence came from. He gave people the feeling that he could escape at any time and treated the other party as if they were nothing.
"You have guts. No wonder you dare to come here alone to save people. What a pity. This time, you will never be able to leave. Take them down." The Great Elder shook his head regretfully and said to Gu Zheng.
Two of the elders with the same cultivation level directly descended from the sky and pounced towards Gu Zheng. The others also spread out to prevent any accidental injuries. They could also help at any time to prevent the other party from taking the opportunity to escape.
As for the Great Elder, he remained in his original position and looked at Gu Zheng to see how he would deal with it.
No one could be underestimated. If the other party had a trick to escape, they would lose face.
Even if the other party escaped, the result would still be the same. They could not leave this world and would be caught sooner or later.
"Protect yourself."
When Gu Zheng saw the other party's reaction, he understood that Meng Zhen was temporarily safe. The other party wanted to get rid of him before catching Meng Zhen. He immediately said that.
Meng Zhen immediately retreated to the entrance of the cave to prevent herself from getting hurt. She knew that there were many people looking at her. If she dared to do anything, she was afraid that the higher-ups would arrest her first. Only the dead end behind her would not provoke them.

.................................
Terrifying auras rose into the air, and the monster in the air immediately hid in the tunnel. The shockwave from earlier had almost hit her, but it had passed by her and landed on the mountain next to her, creating a crater that was several feet deep. Even half of the tunnel's entrance had collapsed.
..........................
. Ten minutes passed in the blink of an eye. The Great Elder could not help but praise when he saw that the other party was evenly matched.
Judging from the other party's battle experience, he could tell that the other party was extremely experienced. His attacks were bold and unrestrained. Even though he seemed to be at a disadvantage, he had not been hit many times since the beginning.
"It's the same nature as a spar. There's nothing to see." An elder not far away heard the Great Elder's words and added.
The Great Elder nodded. That was indeed the case. If they were really using weapons, the other party would definitely not be so relaxed at this time. And he could also see that his two Elders had not been active for many years. Taking advantage of this opportunity to have a good time, he would let them move. If he took action, he would quickly deal with the other party, and they might even blame him.
As for the other elders, they were also in high spirits as they watched the fight below. They could also learn quite a bit from it.
But they did not know that the two elders below had gone from looking down on the other party at the beginning to being cautious now. They were even more shocked because no one knew the experience better than them.
In the beginning, when they were besieging him, they had indeed gone easy on him. However, as time passed, the other party, who was originally slightly inferior to them, was now casually clashing head-on with them. It was as if his strength was constantly rising.
Just now, they even felt that they were faintly at a disadvantage. The change in the other party's strength was beyond their imagination. It was as if he was a different person compared to the beginning.
The wind stirred up by the two made the surroundings bumpy. Gu Zheng's figure was like a shadow. He kept dodging in the gaps between the two people's attacks. He did not let the other party get close to him even once.
The Great Elder's face, which was originally full of smiles, gradually became serious. He looked down carefully and seemed to be thinking about something.
"You guys get out of the way. I'll deal with him."
When his gaze fell on the other party's five strange jade bracelets, he glanced inside. Nothing could be hidden from him. His face suddenly changed and he shouted to the people below.
The two elders below did not know why the Great Elder wanted them to leave, but they also had the same intention.
However, Gu Zheng had already felt something from the other party's tone. He did not hesitate and his aura suddenly burst out.
"Boom!"
A thunderous boom reverberated on the ground, causing everyone to feel dizzy. Ripples appeared in the void within a radius of dozens of meters. It was like boiling water, completely sealing off this space.
Although the two elders beside Gu Zheng were still in mid-air, they felt that they were in a whirlpool of stormy waves. They were in a daze and everything around them was in a trance.
They were shocked and tried hard to recover, but it was a little too late. Two palms had already gently pressed on each other's shoulders.
The two elders suddenly flew out of control like a plane that had lost control. They directly fell to the ground and spat out a big mouthful of blood.
"Elder!"
The people around them exclaimed. Those who were close even came down in a flash, wanting to check the other party's condition. No one expected that the other party was actually a wolf in sheep's clothing. He was a peak Grand Luo and hid so deeply. If the Great Elder had not discovered it, they would have suffered a great loss.
If Young Master Yuan knew about it, he would probably be extremely glad. If he really did not know what was good for him and insisted on pestering Gu Zheng, he would probably end up in a bad situation.
"I'm fine, I'm fine."
After the two elders spat out a mouthful of blood, they felt much better and said while waving their hands.
They knew in their hearts that the other party had shown mercy. Otherwise, it would not be a matter of spitting out a mouthful of blood.
"How is it, Great Elder? Do you know why I said that villains die because they talk too much? In fact, there is a saying after that, that is to beat the tiger early. Otherwise, when the tiger grows up, it will bite back. How about letting me go?" Gu Zheng stood below and looked up at the Great Elder above him as he said in a deep voice.
"I don't know how many years it has been since someone spoke to me like this. You want to deceive me? I think you're still not qualified. Let me see how much power there is in your Dharma Treasure for you to squander." The Great Elder's eyes were vicious. He could see at a glance that Gu Zheng's cultivation was definitely not that high.
If he really had it, he would have left directly from the beginning. Those people from the small Yuan Family would probably not even know how they died. The source of the other party's power all came from the five jade bracelets. However, it was impossible for him to rely on a strange Dharma Treasure to threaten him to leave.
As soon as the Great Elder's voice fell, his figure immediately descended from the sky. At the same time, he clenched his hand into the void below and the boiling space instantly calmed down.
"Then don't blame me for being impolite."
Gu Zheng knew that if he wanted to successfully leave with Gu Zheng, he had to quickly defeat the other party. If the other party came to support him, he wouldn't be able to stop them even if he had three heads and six arms. At that moment, he didn't hesitate anymore and didn't consider the power in the jade bracelets. He directly condensed a weapon.
At this moment, he also knew that he couldn't use the Cloud Desolate Sword and the Black Tower. The moment they appeared, the other party's Quasi-Saint would descend here.
Even on the Li Bracelet, a wisp of flame that was different from the others lit up. It was as if there was an additional blooming blood jade on the Li Bracelet.
During the process of descending, the Great Elder waved his hand continuously downward. Streams of white air currents that could be seen with the naked eye continuously appeared in the air and condensed into white crescent-shaped arcs. They gathered layer by layer below and pressed down together.
An invisible pressure instantly swept in all directions like a huge storm. The surrounding Elders couldn't help but retreat a lot. As for Meng Zhen who was in the cave, she didn't have to worry for the time being as she had Gu Zheng's protection. She was also looking outside in shock.
At this moment, Gu Zheng seemed to have completely transformed into another person.
Gu Zheng waved his hand and tore apart the invisible restraints around him. Just as he was about to charge forward, his expression suddenly changed. He had just taken a step forward when he suddenly disappeared from where he was like a ghost.
The moment he disappeared, the crescent-shaped energy that was descending from the sky also suddenly disappeared in mid-air and reappeared around him. It was like a lotus flower that completely shattered that illusion.
He used a killing move right from the start. He didn't hold back at all.
When Gu Zheng saw this scene from the side, his pupils shrank. The weapon in his hand slashed towards the Great Elder. Three streaks of golden Sword Qi formed the shape of a triangle. The void trembled and formed some kind of formation. Not only did it lock onto the Great Elder's position, it also sealed off the Great Elder's body. No matter how the Great Elder tried to dodge, he couldn't escape.
Of course, this was just an appetizer. At the same time, he sped up. His entire body was like a phantom as he directly passed through his own attack. He even directly passed through the Great Elder's body and suddenly appeared behind him.
"Swish!"
A golden light suddenly flashed in the sky. The extremely bright light dyed half of the sky golden yellow, making it impossible for people to look directly at what was happening inside.
However, all the elders who were watching outside weren't worried about the Great Elder. If he was so easily injured, then he wouldn't be the Great Elder that they were familiar with.
All of a sudden, a series of explosions rang out in the air, causing the entire void to tremble. This time, even the entire Luo Mountain began to tremble violently. More and more of the protective grand formations were activated, but they were unable to calm down. Only when the true grand formation of Luo Mountain was activated did everything calm down.
Even though the tremor only lasted for a few breaths of time, the impact was huge. Everyone in Luo Mountain was discussing what was going on outside. Even many people in the distance could feel the commotion here.
There were peak Grand Heavenly Immortals fighting. Many people rushed over, wanting to see what was going on. Who dared to behave atrociously in Luo Mountain?
On Gu Zheng's side, the dense explosions quickly dissipated, revealing the two figures once again.
From the outside, neither side was injured. In the battle just now, neither side could do anything to the other.
"Very good. You're worthy of my full strength."
The Great Elder glanced at him and grabbed with his claw. The lotus flower that had already formed on the side instantly collapsed into a mass of white gas. It gradually dissipated on the spot, but it appeared above the Great Elder's head.
Then, the Great Elder slapped at Gu Zheng's location. The airflow in mid-air rapidly descended again, pulling out white gas. In the process of descending, the white gas condensed again, forming a giant white palm that was more than a hundred feet in size. It slapped at Gu Zheng's location.
At this moment, behind Gu Zheng was the entrance of the cave where Meng Zhen was hiding. Although he had the time to dodge, he couldn't because Meng Zhen couldn't dodge.
Meng Zhen's eyes flashed fiercely. He took a step forward and slashed the golden sword in his hand upwards. With an ear-piercing whistle, a golden sword light flashed through the air and met the giant palm that was descending from the sky.
Bang!
Even though it was a sharp sword, the moment the two collided, there was a loud sound. In the middle of the giant palm, an extremely long crack appeared in the space. The giant palm directly collapsed into a mass of white gas, losing its greatest power.
"Meng Zhen, go inside and wait for me to come and get you." Gu Zheng shouted to the back. His body flashed again, and he rushed towards the Great Elder.
Meng Zhen immediately understood Gu Zheng's meaning. Although it was a dead end inside, this was the only way to prevent Gu Zheng from being distracted.
More importantly, the two of them had done something in the past ten days. Using Meng Zhen's painting, the two of them had a chance to pull the other to their side. Of course, in order to carry out this plan, they had put in a lot of effort.
At that time, it was only to prevent any accidents from happening, so that they could split up and win the chance to escape. However, now that Gu Zheng's strength had skyrocketed, Meng Zhen could not pull him, but Gu Zheng could pull the other party. It seemed like this time, he had to use it so quickly.
However, this was the only way to leave safely.
Just like what Meng Zhen had said, he had already felt the lack of energy in the Fifth Ring. Even if he was holding on, he wouldn't be able to hold on for too long. After all, maintaining the strength of a peak Grand Heavenly Realm consumed a lot of energy at every moment. Even if the Fifth Ring was still being converted, it was still very difficult.
On the other side, when the Great Elder saw Gu Zheng approaching, he waved his hand. A layer of misty white fog immediately filled the air and surrounded him. There were unknown dangers hidden in the fog.
However, Gu Zheng was even more daring. He directly rushed in. It was as if he had poked a hornet's nest. He felt countless small attacks coming from all directions, stabbing towards him.
When Gu Zheng broke through the layer of white fog in less than a breath's time, there were already more than ten bloody holes on his body. Blood kept flowing out, but he didn't seem to notice it. He even accelerated to the side of the Great Elder and swung the weapon in his hand. In a blur, he directly chopped towards the Great Elder's head.
The Great Elder didn't even move. He didn't know when, but a dagger formed from a white ball was clamped between his fingers. When he saw Gu Zheng's attack, he directly moved his finger. The dagger that was less than a finger's length flew in an instant and blocked his side.
When Gu Zheng saw that it was too late for the Great Elder to change his direction, he waved his hand heavily and increased his strength, wanting to defeat the Great Elder.
His other hand didn't stay idle either. He stretched out his hand at lightning speed and directly reached for the Great Elder's heart like a black tiger. The surface of his fist was rippling with golden light.
However, the Great Elder seemed to have expected it. He directly raised his arm, and a layer of sparkling white light appeared on it. It was like a newly sharpened weapon. It was abnormally powerful and blocked Gu Zheng's path.
"Ding!"
The small dagger and Gu Zheng's weapon collided. A huge wave of Qi instantly swept out from the point of contact, surging in all directions.
The Great Elder, who had been forced to react passively, actually managed to block Gu Zheng's attack. Even though the cold light was less than a finger's length away from the Great Elder, this distance was like an insurmountable chasm. He was unable to do anything to the Great Elder.
At the same time, Gu Zheng's fist also collided with the Great Elder's arm. It was as if he had collided with ten-thousand-year-old black iron. A dull sound rang out. It was as if the bones on his fist had been shattered. A burning pain spread through his entire arm, making it impossible for him to use any strength.
At this moment, the Great Elder suddenly bent his leg and swept it towards Gu Zheng's chest. His counterattack was fast. It was as if he had already made his move before the Great Elder's attack had even landed.
"Bang!"
At this moment, Gu Zheng was injured. He was simply unable to block the Great Elder's attack. He could only watch as the Great Elder's leg slammed into his stomach.
Gu Zheng's figure immediately flew high into the air. A mouthful of blood sprayed through the air as he fell into the distance.
In their first exchange, Gu Zheng was at a disadvantage.
A beam of white light suddenly rose from below, chasing after the distant Gu Zheng like a bolt of lightning.
Feeling that huge threat, Gu Zheng forcibly controlled his body in the air. He fell rapidly in the air, narrowly avoiding the Great Elder's attack.
However, his abdomen was still scratched by the Great Elder's sharp Qi.
However, the white light made a turn in the air and once again chased after Gu Zheng. It was as if it would not stop until it had caught up to him.
Just as Gu Zheng was about to land on the ground, he completely controlled his body. The tip of his foot touched the ground, leaving a deep mark as he quickly retreated.
When the white light landed, its speed did not decrease. It directly turned at a right angle and continued to accelerate towards Gu Zheng.
When Gu Zheng saw this, he gave up on his previous idea. He put his arms together in front of his body. The golden and yellow lights on his wrist flashed. One by one, golden and yellow dots quickly floated out. They quickly formed a two-colored shield in front of him, directly blocking in front of him.
At this moment, the white light had only just touched the first shield when it was instantly destroyed. It turned into specks of fluorescent light and dissipated.
"Pu pu pu"
When one shield was destroyed, another shield took its place. In the blink of an eye, the dozen or so layers of defense that had just been set up had already been broken by the Great Elder. However, it had also successfully reduced the Great Elder's initial momentum.
At this moment, a red light had already shot out from Gu Zheng's neck. It turned into a rocket and shot out.
