On the other side, Gu Zheng, who had been forced to travel, was now in a spacious blood-colored region.
Behind him was a huge red screen that separated the other side of the world. He could see that not far away, there was a huge blood-red tunnel that led to the distance. He had already reached the end of this area.
This giant screen was very tough, and it would take some time to break open a gap that was big enough to leave. Behind him, the red figure had already rushed up and completely blocked the only exit.
At this moment, he was attacking the red figures that kept rushing over. The tunnel in front of him was completely dyed red. Some red smoke was floating towards him. It wouldn't take long for this place to be occupied by the red smoke. He started to think about leaving this place first. Otherwise, it wouldn't be so easy to leave.
Just as this thought popped up in his head, he suddenly saw a golden light appear on the wall in front of him. Then, a tunnel flashed from above. Meng Zhen's figure came out of it. When he saw Gu Zheng, he happily shouted, "Hello!
"So you're here. It took me a long time to find you."
Seeing Meng Zhen, Gu Zheng was very surprised. He didn't expect him to find him so quickly. It seemed that he was much more relaxed than him.
"Let's not talk first. Let's leave this place first."
Meng Zhen saw the red figures that came out because Gu Zheng stopped attacking. They started to rush over. Looking at the unusually bright bodies of the red figures, he pulled Gu Zheng and went in.
When Gu Zheng reappeared, he found that they were in a new place. Although it was the same scene, the surroundings had become hard rocks. It was not like the simple soil from before. Of course, the strength was still the same.
"We finally got rid of those places." Meng Zhen heaved a sigh of relief.
"Where did you go? Where is this place?" Gu Zheng asked curiously. The uniqueness of this place was beyond his imagination. It didn't feel like a magic treasure, but it also felt like a magic treasure.
"At first, I was like you. I thought this was a magic treasure. In fact, after my investigation, this is not it. It's very deep underground. It should be the Demon God's palace. But his place is a little special. I don't know why he likes to build it underground."
"The area of light is almost the same as the space above. However, many places seem to be incomplete. We are in the middle of the core, and above us is the bottom of the valley."
"The other party has set up all kinds of formations here. It won't be difficult to get out. Let's go to your friend's place now. That place has a huge restriction. If we want to go in, I'm afraid it won't be that easy. However, before I left, I left behind a blank piece of paper. I don't know if it's destroyed. If it's possible, I'll be able to pass through. "
Meng Zhen naturally knew what Gu Zheng was thinking. She immediately explained. She had only found out about this after teleporting here. She also emphasized the situation when she was teleported here. Elder Xiong continued to be sealed by the array formation.
"You don't have to worry about the defense over there. I've also left a backup plan over there. I can vaguely feel it. It seems like we're thinking the same thing. Now, let me ask you, is this place very big? Did you find anything else? "Gu Zheng thought for a moment. He was thinking about what to do next to release Elder Xiong.
He didn't think that the other party didn't have any other means other than the two of them triggering the trap. He was afraid that the other party was constantly monitoring that place. He had to think of a way to make the other party busy. Only then would he have a chance to release Elder Xiong.
"It's very big. Other than the area you're in, there are three other areas of the same size. They have places that corrode one's mind and are filled with poison. There's also a place of chaos and darkness. I dare to go to that place. After I found the traces you left here, I've been following you. I'll cooperate with Mao Zhen. As long as you give me a suitable space, I won't be afraid of this kind of seal in the future." Meng Zhen said proudly.
"What about the front?" Gu Zheng asked.
Of course, it was mainly because of Mao Zhen's talent. With her providing sufficient magical power, she could be said to be the nemesis of ordinary seals. She could leave in just a few breaths unless the space was completely sealed. However, there were very few people who could do that.
However, compared to Little Cat, Mao Zhen was still inferior in this aspect. The other party was good at traversing through space. There was almost no seal that could stop him. If Little Cat was still around, she wouldn't have been tricked by the other party.
Of course, Little Cat's combat strength was weak. Even if Mao Zhen was weak, she was still stronger than the other party.
"I don't know about the front. However, I can feel that there's danger ahead. Further ahead, there are two extremely strong people fighting. I don't dare to get close. I think we should go back first. Think of a way to release your companion. That way, our strength will be much stronger than the other party. Even if your companion is weak right now, she can still be of great help." Meng Zhen shook his head and said.
"I know what you mean. However, now isn't the best time to go over. Even if we force our way over, we might be sent back here. Let's go ahead and find my companion. Maybe we can cooperate with her to kill the other party. That's an easier way." Gu Zheng made up his mind and said immediately.
"Alright."
Meng Zhen saw that Gu Zheng had made up his mind and didn't object. He naturally had his own thoughts that he didn't know about.
Gu Zheng then led Meng Zhen forward and entered the similarly huge maze. However, this time, it was impossible to trap them here. With Meng Zhen's skills, they only needed to guard against the dangers here and there.
However, Gu Zheng didn't feel any pressure when Meng Zhen sensed danger. Because if the other party's strength was high enough, he would definitely help him deal with the Vermilion Bird. However, he was behind them now. Obviously, his strength hadn't reached the standard and he couldn't go forward. Even if there was a late-stage Grand Luo, he could still wander around and harass them.
However, he was a threat to Meng Zhen. The other party's strength might be at the mid-stage of the Grand Luo Realm. To Gu Zheng, he naturally didn't need to worry about him. If he dared to come out, he would deal with him first.
This place was obviously much more spacious than before. The space had expanded by five times. It looked the same as before. Naturally, it didn't feel as oppressive as before.
After walking for a short distance, they reached the end. A white, hard wall blocked their path. It was as if they had to pass through the maze at the side.
Gu Zheng looked at Meng Zhen. If the other party could pass through here, there was no need for them to enter the maze at the side. They could just go to the back.
Meng Zhen walked forward and waved the Maozhen in his hand. Soon, a golden light emerged from the stone wall. Gu Zhengyi was overjoyed. However, after a while, the light did not move forward. The golden tunnel did not appear on the wall either.
"No, there's a force interfering with me. I can't go over." Meng Zhen stopped his actions and said to Gu Zheng.
After all, this technique wasn't perfect. Especially when it came to long places. With Mao Zhen's talent, it was beyond his ability.
"Then we can only go from here." Gu Zheng didn't mind at all. He chose a direction and walked in.
"Why don't I speed up?" Meng Zhen followed beside him and suggested.
"No, you should conserve your strength first. You used up a lot just now. It's a waste to use it to travel." Gu Zheng quickly stopped him.
If he used Meng Zhen to travel, he could easily speed up. However, Meng Zhen could see that he had used up a lot of energy. At this critical moment, if he used too much energy, he might not be able to react in time. Moreover, he was thinking of letting Zhu Niao deal with the other party while Meng Zhen helped Elder Xiong break the seal.
He had already told her about the node of the seal. With her cultivation, she could destroy it. The main thing was Elder Xiong's nightmare world. He didn't know if he could help her break free in time.
Meng Zhen listened to everything Gu Zheng said. She didn't think about why. Because she trusted him too much. Even if Gu Zheng wanted to sell her out, she would agree immediately. She just thought that he had a plan and needed her to do it.
It couldn't be helped. After experiencing what happened in the mini world, if one couldn't even trust him, then one shouldn't blame the world for abandoning one.
Just as they started to travel, there was a huge pond that was hundreds of meters deep in the middle of this area. Above the pond, there was a huge black pipe that stretched out from the top of the pond. Four different colored streams of water flowed out from each of the pipes and flowed into the pond.
There was already a small part of the pond below. The black color was mixed with a strange pink color. As the black shadow at the bottom swayed slightly, they could see the reflection of other colors. It was very strange.
If Gu Zheng saw this, he would definitely recognize the pipes. They corresponded to the four different areas that Gu Zheng had mentioned before.
The bloody river and the black fog that Meng Zhen had seen at the beginning all turned into thick streams of water and flowed down continuously. As for the green light, it should be the poisonous thing. As for the last one, it was very strange. It didn't flow down tirelessly like the previous three. Instead, it took a long time for a fist-sized black crystal to drip down.
Although the crystal was small and took a long time to fall, once it fell into the water below, it would immediately melt, causing the other three incompatible colors to gradually mix together.
Although the pond was deep, it wasn't big. No one knew how long it had been like this. Under normal circumstances, it would have been full long ago. But below, as Gu Zheng entered, a black shadow trembled slightly. It seemed to be startled and slowly floated up from below. It silently flew out of the pond and entered this area.
Gu Zheng knew that if he barged in like this, he would definitely alert the other party. He wanted to take the opportunity to get rid of the other party's underlings first so that they wouldn't cause trouble later. So, even if there was no danger along the way, he would still knock on the wall from time to time, trying to lure the other party over.
But when he saw the other party come over, Gu Zheng was a little dumbfounded. He looked at the other party's body that wasn't very big and looked familiar. He said to Meng Zhen, who was next to him.
"I have a suggestion. Now is not the time to save energy. Let's hurry up and leave this place. There's no need to waste time here."
"I think that's a good idea. Why bother arguing with him? It's more important to fight that Demon God." Meng Zhen was also like Little Chick, nodding quickly.
Her hand had already begun to dance to the side. Immediately, a golden light flashed on it. The familiar passage was about to open. Gu Zheng looked at the approaching monster in front of him and directly pushed Meng Zhen, following her into the golden passage.
Just as they rushed over, a red flood rushed past their position.
"That was close. We're safe now."
After coming out of the golden passage, Meng Zhen said with a look of fear.
"How long can this passage of yours last? Can it close on its own? Can others pass through? "Gu Zheng suddenly asked with a serious expression.
"It will close and disappear in about ten breaths of time. I can close it for longer than that. If you want others to come in, it shouldn't be possible. Without my permission, no one can pass through," Meng Zhen said strangely.
"While we're on the way, tell me how Mao Zhen's magic arts were formed.
We're going to run now, "Gu Zheng said quickly to Meng Zhen, then grabbed her by the wrist and ran towards another passage.
Before Meng Zhen could react, she had already left with him. At the same time, a familiar aura appeared in her passage. In the blink of an eye, it appeared at their previous position.
That monster had actually followed their passage and chased after them. No wonder Gu Zheng had suddenly asked her such a strange question.
This creature shared some similarities with the one he'd seen in Tang Li's underground chamber. It looked like an insect with five tentacles waving in the air. Aside from the blue pill at the end of the tentacles, he recognized the auras of the other four.
The green light above the monster's head flashed and a huge cloud of green mist sprayed out. It turned into a green line that rushed towards their backs.
"Be careful!"
Meng Zhen saw everything clearly from behind and immediately warned.
"I know!"
Gu Zheng's footsteps sped up again like a gust of wind. Before the green arrow caught up, he had already turned the corner and kept running forward.
As soon as he turned the corner, he saw a familiar golden light shining from a nearby wall. By the time he reached it, it had already opened and he immediately dove in.
"Hurry and close it!"
Gu Zheng urged Meng Zhen as soon as he came out. He wanted to shake off the monster's pursuit for a while.
Meng Zhen hurriedly closed the passage in a flurry. Before the other side could follow them, the passage automatically closed. Meng Zhen also stopped half of his spells and innocently looked at Gu Zheng.
She had said before that no matter how fast she was, she couldn't keep up with the speed of the passage closing. She was just putting on an act.
"Don't say that yet. Keep opening a few more to get away from here," Gu Zheng felt unsafe and urged her.
After a few times, Gu Zheng heaved a sigh of relief and let Meng Zhen take a break.
"This thing is so powerful. Why is it here instead of helping the Godfiend?" Gu Zheng didn't expect his deduction to be wrong.
"How would I know? I only knew that there was danger here. Who would have thought that there would be a monster at the peak of the Grand Luo Realm here," Meng Zhen said.
Yes, that monster wasn't a mid-stage or late-stage Grand Luo like Gu Zheng thought. Its aura was at the peak of the Grand Luo Realm. When they saw it coming, Gu Zheng and Meng Zhen were dumbfounded. They immediately ran away without saying anything.
"We can't stay here. Let's continue on our way! Do you know how far we need to go? "Gu Zheng rested for a while and was ready to leave.
"We should be more than halfway there. We'll be out soon." Meng Zhen was very confident about this. She remembered the distance previously. Now that they had run so far, she could roughly estimate the location.
"Well, Mao Zhen, tell me the pros and cons of your spell," Gu Zheng nodded and asked while walking quickly.
Although there were many twists and turns here and there and they were escaping in panic, their perception wasn't messed up. They continued to move towards the end, where the Vermilion Bird was.
"My talent is very powerful. I automatically knew how to use it when I fused with the Imperial Jade Seal," Mao Zhen couldn't help showing off when there was no danger and she heard Gu Zheng's question.
"As long as it's the same material and the space isn't sealed, I can build a golden passage at any two places with it. It can allow people to pass through directly. Ordinary Restriction Arrays can't stop me at all."
"But the disadvantages are very obvious. First of all, connecting two places has to be the same material. It has to rely on a medium. For example, in the sea, as long as you have enough spiritual power, you can use the sea to travel any distance. But even if you're under the sea, you can't reach the surface. It's also impossible to reach the surface without any attachment point in the air."
Mao Zhen's explanation was very clear. Gu Zheng also roughly understood how she operated. In fact, when he opened the space, once he entered, he wouldn't move at his own speed. There was a kind of power similar to the rules that forced him to move forward. Inside, he couldn't move even if he wanted to. Maybe that was the power contained in the Imperial Jade Seal.
No matter what it was, once it was endowed with a certain belief, it would naturally produce a kind of power. This power wasn't weak. After all, the original owner was very powerful. But if one's strength reached the Sage-to-be level, he could easily pierce through the golden light.
If they were still inside, needless to say, the result would be obvious. In short, Mao Zhen's strength wasn't strong enough, which was why she had these flaws.
Suddenly, Gu Zheng stopped. Meng Zhen, who was beside him, was stunned. She didn't know what was going on and looked at him suspiciously.
"We can't go directly. I keep feeling that there's something wrong with that monster. If it's really that strong, we won't be able to get rid of it so easily. Not to mention, there's a battle going on in front. And it's still behind. There must be some kind of conspiracy." Gu Zheng said suspiciously.
"Maybe. But those four balls aren't something we can deal with. You also know how powerful that red water is. Not to mention that mysterious black ball. Just one look at it and I feel like I'm being sucked in." Meng Zhen hurriedly advised.
"No, if we go in like this, we'll be the ones at a disadvantage if the Demon God has some kind of plan. But don't worry, I know my limits. It's hard for us to resist the other party's little things. I'm just teaching them a lesson."
Gu Zheng thought of the things in his hands. This was also inspired by seeing Ren Xue. One had to know that he still had a few good things in his hands.
"I don't think we need to find him. I feel that he's already here."
Following Mao Zhen's trembling voice, Gu Zheng and the rest felt a threat approaching them rapidly.
