Unfortunately, other than a few people who were paying attention to Gu Zheng's actions, no one else seemed to have noticed. Gu Zheng tried a few times and realized that it was useless, so he could only speed up and leave. When he reached the core of the formation, the noise outside was almost inaudible. Everyone here was resting quietly and was not affected by the outside world at all.
"Hurry up and rest. If there's anything, we'll talk about it later."
Elder Shui was waiting for him. He led Gu Zheng to a quiet place and then left.
"I'll help you look after him. I've already rested." Meng Zhen sat down and said to Gu Zheng.
Gu Zheng nodded and then began to recover.
This time, he had suffered many injuries in his body. They were all from the aftershocks that he received when he was trying to confuse Wen Tianhou. Overall, it was not a big problem.
Following Gu Zheng's disappearance, the people outside also carefully came down.
"It's finally stopped. I'm afraid that if he said that he wants to fight with our Shura Tribe again, those people would be willing." On the other side, Elder Jin looked at the commotion and smiled bitterly to Shui Ling.
"The other party is also a foreign elder of our Shura Tribe, so they definitely won't. Hurry up and recover. Don't let the old ancestor wait."
.....
In a hidden valley in the northwest of the palace, a pitch-black water wave stood in mid-air. The moment Wen Tianhou died, the originally calm surface suddenly rippled. Soon, a spinning black vortex appeared in mid-air and spun continuously.
This change shocked everyone. They looked in front of them in disbelief because there was only one possibility for this to happen, and that was that the Heavenly King was already dead. This was the only way out for them.
After reaching there, they could still recuperate. As long as they were given enough time, they could still recover their former glory. Wen Tianhou would not really give up on them. Although they did not make much progress, their descendants still had endless possibilities.
"Stop talking. Follow the Heavenly King's orders and leave." A silver ghost general looked outside and then said coldly.
.....
Time flew, and in the blink of an eye, more than ten days had passed.
Gu Zheng, who had been recuperating, slowly opened his eyes and exhaled a mouthful of white air. At this time, his injuries were almost healed.
When he woke up, he saw Meng Zhen sitting in front of him. Her knees were bent and her hands were hugging her head. Her back was filled with loneliness.
Seeing this scene, Gu Zheng swallowed the words that he originally wanted to call out to her.
Even though Meng Zhen wasn't affected in the slightest after being rescued, he was still deeply touched.
All of her clansmen had been captured. Although there was no danger to their lives, after all, their clan leader was still making use of them. But sometimes, death was better than being alive. She had to be careful.
Moreover, she was all alone now and was being eroded by the small world. Although she was being careful now, it was like a careless follower that was entrenched in her heart, causing her to be constantly worried.
Gu Zheng stared at Meng Zhen for a while before standing up. Such an obvious action startled Meng Zhen, who stood up with a shudder. When he turned around, his body had returned to its original state. It was as though what Gu Zheng saw earlier was just an illusion.
"Gu Zheng, you're awake. There are many people outside looking for you. Hurry up and leave. Don't delay their matters." Meng Zhen said to Gu Zheng.
"Let's not talk about the matters outside first. I want to ask you what you're going to do next." Gu Zheng walked to Meng Zhen and asked seriously.
"Ah? What else can I do? Of course, I have to find a way to free myself. I've asked their elders before and they said they would help me research it. But it will take a long time. If it doesn't work, I'll help them and ask their Grandmaster to help. "
Meng Zhen didn't expect Gu Zheng to ask her this question. She was obviously stunned. Then, she panicked and tried her best to explain. Unfortunately, Gu Zheng could tell that she was lying. Even if she died in front of the Shura Tribe, the Shura Tribe's Grandmaster wouldn't help her. But other people might help her for his sake.
"Do you think I'll believe you? If you believe me, then listen to me. "
It wasn't that Gu Zheng didn't believe her. But the situation in Meng Zhen's body couldn't be solved by ordinary people. He even felt that even the Grandmaster couldn't do anything about it. It wasn't that the Shura Tribe wasn't strong enough. It was just that the Shura Tribe couldn't be affected by this karma.
When they became the Six Dao of Asura, they could no longer interfere with the affairs of the Untainted Land. They could only wait for the next opportunity to make a move. Before that, they could only stay here forever or change their identities through the Six Dao and experience life.
Of course, since they had cut off everything, their enemies wouldn't find trouble with them. If they did, they would be going against the Heavenly Dao. They wouldn't even know how they died.
"If even you can't believe me, then I won't be me anymore." Meng Zhen thought for a while and said seriously.
When she first cooperated with Gu Zheng, it was because they wanted to escape and make use of each other. When they were in the Palace City, Meng Zhen only thought of him as an ordinary friend. Just like in the Demon Soul, she had many friends who weren't much different from them.
However, since Gu Zheng risked his life to save her from the Mini Chiliocosm, his position in her heart was like that of her own clansmen. She could trust him with her back and didn't have to worry about anything. He was a very reliable companion. She believed that if he was in danger, she would save him without hesitation.
"Then trust me and leave this place with me. I will think of a way in the Primordial World. When the time comes, I will escort you back," Gu Zheng said seriously.
"Okay."
Meng Zhen only thought about it for a while before nodding in agreement. In fact, she didn't know what she should do now. She was at a loss as to what she should do in the future. When Gu Zheng recovered, she had been thinking about this matter. What she said just now was made up on the spot. When she heard Gu Zheng's invitation, she didn't think much about it and immediately agreed.
"Don't worry. I won't sell you out. You don't have to look like it's dangerous to follow me." Gu Zheng looked at her carefully and teased her in his heart.
He breathed a sigh of relief. As long as she followed him, there was hope to send her back. Maybe he would have to fight with the other side again.
Who asked him to throw the Black Tower in his possession into the hands of the Second Elder? Because of this, the Second Elder had damaged his painting scroll. However, Meng Zhen had been rescued, but the Black Tower had been pulled into a small chiliocosm. He had even promised the Second Elder that he would send the Second Elder back. Now, of all things, he had to take out the Black Tower. He had to suffer the consequences of his actions.
Of course, Gu Zheng didn't forget Yan Yufei. He still had to send him there. If he guessed correctly, that place was where Bai Jiajia and the others were. He could ask them where they were later.
In this battle, Yan Yufei also helped him. As a result, Hollow Spirit was destroyed again. He also knew that Hollow Spirit would die again at most, and the Space of Jade Miao Space would not be able to be condensed again. It might even cause the Space of Jade Miao Space to become unstable. Therefore, he didn't want to let Hollow Spirit out to fight unless it was absolutely necessary.
This caused Meng Zhen to burst out laughing. Most of the gloominess in her heart had disappeared. Since Gu Zheng had said so, then he would definitely be able to do it. There was no point in her lamenting herself.
"That's right. You should rest for a while. I will go over there to deal with the matter. We will leave soon." Gu Zheng nodded with satisfaction.
Meng Zhen also knew that she was not in a good condition. She didn't say much and went to the side to rest.
At this time, Gu Zheng walked outside. At this time, all the Shura Clan members had carefully stood up. Because they were almost at the final stage, they didn't ask for help.
"Gu Zheng, you finally came out. I have been waiting for you for a long time." Bai Jiajia, who had been waiting for a long time, saw Gu Zheng coming out from afar and immediately rushed over.
"Sorry for wasting your time." Gu Zheng said embarrassedly.
He originally thought that two days would be enough. However, such a long time had passed in an instant. This was also the result of him actively controlling himself. Otherwise, a casual nap would have been counted in years.
"I wasn't in a hurry. I just gathered those people and was about to call you." Bai Jiajia didn't mind. "If there's nothing else, shall we go now?"
"That's exactly why I came. Let's not make them wait too long."
As he spoke, Gu Zheng and Bai Jiajia walked into the distance. In front of them was the empty space that used to belong to Soul Alliance. Almost everyone from Lone Peak and Soul Alliance were gathered there, waiting to leave together.
"Right, I have a question. Do you know where you sealed the small world?" Gu Zheng suddenly asked her on the way.
"Of course I know the approximate location. That place requires someone to guide you in. Otherwise, it will be very hard to find. Do you want to help there? Although you haven't entered before, I can recommend you. "Bai Jiajia glanced at Gu Zheng and said with surprise.
From what she saw, the other party didn't seem to want to come in contact with them. Otherwise, he wouldn't have left Lone Peak.
"I have some personal matters here. Please tell me the location." Gu Zheng didn't say the reason. After all, she hadn't entered before and probably didn't know what was inside. If she wanted to help him, wouldn't he be delaying her from washing away the aura here? If that caused any consequences, it would be a sin.
He didn't have that many misgivings because he had only been here for a short period of time. It wasn't enough for him to have too much karma with this place. Adding on the fact that he was here to comply, he naturally didn't have any problems. Meng Zhen wasn't afraid of these things. The two of them had completely different forms. She was between a spirit body and a corporeal body. Indeed, she was a mysterious species.
"Yes, that place is in the southern region. It's very close to the volcano. You have to be careful." Bai Jiajia didn't mind and directly told Gu Zheng the location. At the same time, she gave him a guide certificate. As long as he was within a certain distance, someone would naturally come to guide him.
Gu Zheng naturally thanked her and quickly came over. Huang Wei and Xu Jia had been waiting here for a long time. What entered their eyes was a black mass of people. The originally lively scene quickly calmed down when Gu Zheng arrived. They quietly looked at Gu Zheng.
Gu Zheng saw that there were many people on the other side. He took a closer look and found that City Lord Liu was looking over there. Ruo Chen was talking to Madam Xue next to her. Behind them were the survivors of their tribe. There were at least four to five thousand people.
Although they were mortal enemies with Wen Tianhou, in the end, they were still part of his creation. They were also Monster Souls. They couldn't return to the Underworld. In other words, this was their true home.
After having this thought in his mind, Gu Zheng didn't ask about them. Instead, he flew up and spoke.
"Friends, no matter if you were a human or a Goblin when you were alive, no matter if you had enmity or hatred, I know that you didn't come here willingly. However, you still chose this path of no return and completely helped us kill Wen Tianhou. First of all, I would like to thank you for your contributions to the Eldritch World. Please accept my bow."
After speaking, Gu Zheng lowered his head deeply and bowed to the people below.
He clearly knew that they were still affected in their hearts. However, they chose to stay for his sake and for their families. However, it was still worth it for him to thank them.
The people below didn't expect Gu Zheng to do this. Everyone was shocked. However, a warm current flowed through their hearts. Perhaps they didn't expect that someone would thank them for everything they had done.
"After experiencing the Eldritch World, we had countless disasters in the past. However, now, no matter how we were in life, at least we have a future. We don't want our family and friends to wander outside and become lonely ghosts. We have succeeded. At this moment, whether you were lucky enough to survive or lost friends who saw this scene, even if many people don't remember you, all future generations will remember your contributions."
"This time, when you go back, you will bring merit with you to reincarnate. If possible, after experiencing the Tribulation of a Hundred Lives, you will naturally have your own opportunities."
Gu Zheng looked at them and made a promise to them. Of course, this wasn't something he could decide, but rather the piece of paper in his bosom. He had sensed it and told them in advance. This was their reward for their contributions to the Six Paths.
After saying this, Gu Zheng didn't give them time to speak. He took out the piece of paper that the shura had put away in advance and threw it out.
The entire piece of paper expanded in the wind and flew into the air. When it landed on top of their heads, it had completely turned into a huge piece of paper, covering everyone below it. A layer of golden light suddenly fell from the edge of the paper, forming four golden curtains that completely covered them.
At this time, the people below reacted. They said something to Gu Zheng, but they couldn't make a sound. Some people even bowed to Gu Zheng to express their gratitude.
"Thank you very much. At least they will have hope in the future," Bai Jiajia said with a smile.
"This is what I should do. In fact, they are the ones who sacrificed the most," Gu Zheng said with emotion.
If the demon soul was causing trouble below, with so many people, they wouldn't be able to focus on attacking Wen Tianhou.
"Haha, then Mister Gu, have you decided to come with us? But don't worry, I've asked the shura. They have a way to send you to the place you want to leave, "Bai Jiajia said without hesitation.
"So soon?" Gu Zheng was a little surprised. They hadn't even left yet, but they were already saying goodbye.
"Yes, we don't have anything to do here. We should leave as soon as possible," Huang Wei said.
"Mister Gu, why don't you come with us? When we reach the top, we still have to repay you for saving our lives. Otherwise, I would've been dead long ago," Xu Jia suggested.
Gu Zheng turned his head and looked to the side. The slightly transparent golden light was very dazzling, and it was still growing stronger. He couldn't see what was going on inside. At the same time, a strange fluctuation was quickly rising.
Pop!
Along with the sound of a bubble exploding, the golden light in front of them suddenly brightened, causing Gu Zheng to slightly dodge. In the next moment, the golden light suddenly disappeared, and everything returned to normal. However, all of them had disappeared. Even the piece of paper had left with them. Its mission had been completed.
There were only some scattered people who didn't arrive in time. Although they managed to avoid the battle, they would never be able to return. If they weren't slowly assimilated into this place, then they would be captured by the Asura Race. As for their fate, Gu Zheng was powerless to do anything about it.
"You guys go first. The place I want to go isn't too far from there," Gu Zheng turned his head and refused.
"In that case, we'll take our leave first. See you later!" Bai Jiajia seemed to know the result and didn't say anything more. She said goodbye to Gu Zheng.
"I'm looking forward to seeing you again."
"If there's a chance, I'll definitely come to Luo Shan's place."
Huang Wei and Xu Jia waved their hands at Gu Zheng, then they followed Bai Jiajia and left. They still had to return to the lonely peak before leaving.
After Gu Zheng sent them off, City Lord Liu and Ruo Chen came in front of Gu Zheng.
"Elder Gu truly is young and promising. It's a pity I didn't get to know you earlier." City Lord Liu hadn't even arrived yet, but a loud voice came first. When the voice faded, the three of them landed in front of Gu Zheng.
"You're too kind. This time, your losses were huge." Gu Zheng looked at the remaining three people of Soul Alliance and sighed.
Of the ten or so members, other than the City Lord's follower who chose to leave, the rest had all died. Only the three in front of him were left, and they had lost half of their tribe members.
Seeing the baby in Madam Xue's arms, Gu Zheng understood why they didn't leave.
"As long as Wen Tianhou dies, everything will be worth it. At least we won't have to live in fear." Ruo Chen said firmly.
Beside him, City Lord Liu nodded. If it wasn't for the betrayal, they wouldn't be in such a miserable state. In reality, they felt that the reason they were able to survive was because of their special body constitution that helped them block a few fatal wounds. Otherwise, they would have died in the previous battles.
"I know why you're here. If you're willing, you can join the Asura Clan. I'll give them a heads up, so you don't have to worry. As for the problem of your reproduction, you don't have to worry. They won't kick you to the curb after you've outlived your usefulness. Let them tell you the details." How could Gu Zheng not know the other party's intentions?
