Meng Zhen's warning made the three of them feel much more at ease.
The three of them pushed back the Demon God's attack and gathered together again. They didn't go forward again but waited quietly for the monster to arrive.
They already had some understanding of the monster and naturally wouldn't leave its back open to them to avoid being attacked from both sides.
If the other party was still as indifferent as before even after such a blow, they would only be more worried. After all, the Demon God wanted the other party to go all out. If they didn't want to die, they couldn't hide their strength either. Once they were injured, they would dare to go all out to suppress the other party and finish them off in one go.
There was no doubt that they had the strength. Gu Zheng might have been hiding his strength, but once he unleashed it, he wouldn't be weaker than Elder Xiong. Although the other party was a Demon God, he wasn't that strong. If it was a one-on-one battle, they would definitely win. If it was a one-on-one battle, they would definitely lose.
However, the other party had allowed Gu Zheng and the others to rescue Elder Xiong, and from the looks of it, the other party still wanted to tangle with them. This made them realize that the other party was plotting something. After just a slight contact, the other party immediately changed his method, and as expected, they had forced the other party to use a trump card.
As for whether he had other trump cards, they didn't know. But no matter what, they had to kill him completely. If they missed this opportunity, it would be really difficult to find him again. Moreover, the other party wasn't the only one with trump cards.
The other party also knew what they were thinking. After being attacked and seeing that he couldn't continue stalling for time, he immediately summoned his pet.
As the other party approached, the originally serious crowd lost their composure when they saw the monster. Elder Xiong and Zhu Niao glanced at Gu Zheng who was at the side. The latter was also a little embarrassed.
Previously, he had said that the other party was incomparably powerful. But now, looking at it, it felt like a phoenix that had fallen into water. Its body, which was originally hard, was now full of holes as if it had been severely injured. Even its two legs were completely broken.
The five tentacles on the other party's head were shining brightly. It wasn't as gorgeous as before. In short, it felt like it could collapse at any time.
"It's the black water!"
Meng Zhen, who was far away, suddenly thought of Gu Zheng's last resort. However, she did not expect the black water to be so ineffective. It was beyond her expectations.
Previously, when Ren Xue had used the black water, she had only been able to disturb her opponent. It hadn't been able to pose much of a threat to her opponent. She and Gu Zheng had both ignored it. However, they hadn't expected that the black water had been weakened countless times over. Now, Gu Zheng was holding a black stone of perfect purity. After being melted by him, it was countless times stronger than the black water. That was how it had been able to deal such a heavy blow to her opponent.
However, as soon as he said that, Meng Zhen realized something and wanted to cover his mouth. At the same time, he looked at the Demon God. As expected, the Demon God was also looking at him curiously. Obviously, he had also revealed that he had Black Water. This way, the Demon God would definitely be on guard.
Thinking about this, she decided not to speak anymore. After all, she had Gu Zheng's backup plan. Ordinary methods could not kill her, and if she encountered any danger, she would return to her painting. As for giving the painting to Gu Zheng, it was equivalent to giving her life to him. She did not care at all.
At this moment, Gu Zheng was also very shocked. He did not expect the results of the battle to be so brilliant. However, before they could go up to stop the monster, a layer of black mist emerged from the monster's body. Then, the monster disappeared. When it reappeared, it was already beside the Demonic God's Land and was lying there obediently.
This made the three of them feel quite disappointed. However, the Demon God would not be so easily defeated by them, so they were not too dispirited. They focused their attention on the monster.
At that moment, the Demon God stretched out a hand and placed it on the monster's head. Motes of black light continuously fell from his palm and entered the monster's body. The monster's spirit was evidently much better, and even its tentacles moved much faster.
"Originally, I just wanted it to hide behind. Poor little guy, you actually tricked it. I have to say, it's really beyond my expectations." The Demon God smiled. Although he said that it was a pity, there was no anger on his face. It was as if it had nothing to do with him.
"However, my pet has still been injured. Your strength is also beyond my imagination. However, do you think you can celebrate just because of this? I'll let you know how powerful I am. "
The Demon God suddenly grabbed the green bead on the tentacle and it instantly broke free from the tentacle and was sucked into his hand. The tentacle also shrank and disappeared.
At the same time, countless walls rose from the place where the defense was originally set up outside. In the blink of an eye, the place was completely surrounded by indestructible walls that were inscribed with arrays.
In layman's terms, they were all in this space the size of a football field. They could not escape. As for whether the Demon God had a way to escape, they did not know. However, this was his territory and he would not let them off easily.
"Do you think I'm afraid of your things?"
The Vermilion Bird looked at the green fog that was constantly spreading out from the other's hand. It did not care at all. With a flap of its wings, a large amount of flames surged out again, wanting to burn those poisonous things clean.
However, when the flames touched the green fog, the whole green fog suddenly swelled. Unexpectedly, it was not afraid. Instead, it absorbed the power of the flames and spread out. It was like adding oil to the fire.
"You have some skills."
The Vermilion Bird did not panic, nor did it give any orders. The small Phoenix flew in the air and suddenly expanded. Its whole body became oval, like a rubber ball.
In the next instant, it opened its mouth wide, and a gust of wild wind instantly rushed out from its mouth. Traces of sparks intertwined within the wind continuously emitted sparks in the air, like a large net without a physical body, directly rushing towards the approaching Lü Wu.
This time, the green fog seemed to have met its nemesis. Wherever the sparks passed, it would all turn into wisps of green smoke and disappear in the air. It even broke through the obstacles and rushed directly toward the Demon God.
The latter directly took out its green beads, completely condensing them into a thick green jelly like ball, enveloping the Demon God.
That cluster of starfire immediately surrounded it, trying to break through the defense. However, green smoke kept coming out of the two, and they quickly melted. When the starfire completely dissipated, that layer of defense was almost useless.
The Demon God raised his eyebrows and was about to say something when an ice crystal giant axe suddenly appeared above the monster's head, heavily chopping down.
Looking at the trajectory of its fall, it was obvious that it wanted to break the ball below.
It happened so suddenly that the Demon God did not seem to expect it. He only had time to turn his head to look, and the giant axe had already crashed down. A group of ice beads condensed in the surroundings and fell unceasingly.
However, this monster was not only an ornamental pet, its strength was not weak. When the giant axe appeared, it had already reacted.
Its ugly head slightly raised, and six cracks appeared where its mouth was, like a blooming chrysanthemum. A faint black gas spurted out from its mouth.
It was only the size of a baby's palm, but it blocked Elder Xiong's sneak attack above its head. Under the invasion of the other party, the giant axe lost control.
"The Chaotic Qi is indeed worthy of its reputation. Even if it's a fake, even if it's only a ten-thousandth of the original, it's still so powerful."
Elder Xiong did not mind seeing the failure of his attack. He only lamented.
"Isn't the Chaotic Qi a little too much?" Gu Zheng looked at the other party's body. The faint black fog had already disappeared, and it seemed that it had been completely dispersed by the explosion. However, when he thought of his previous sneak attack and how he could not pierce through, he believed it a little.
After all, with the other party's cultivation, it had such a strong defense. Moreover, it automatically defended itself without any consumption. It was simply unheard of.
"However, I underestimated the other party. The entrance that we came in from is a place that connects to the void. After all, the other party is a Demon God. Perhaps he has a method that we don't know of. He can extract a little of the outside world and mix it up a little," Elder Xiong explained.
"Not bad. As expected of the Qilin's inheritance. You even know about this. You're really amazing."
Elder Xiong did not lower his voice, and the Demon God naturally heard it clearly. He clapped his hands and praised. Unfortunately, no one paid attention to him.
"What's the meaning of this pet? We know the rest, but the white in the middle doesn't seem to be a threat," Zhu Niao asked Elder Xiong.
"I don't know either. It should be something that belongs to the other party. Normally, all the Demon Gods should be dead or hidden. The other party captured her to make her call out the power of her bloodline willingly. After all, her bloodline was also fused with an external force, so it's not impossible to take it away. The main purpose is to help the Demon God recall the fragments of his memories. He's trying to use his own power to break through this layer of obstruction." Elder Xiong was not sure either. He only knew that he was the best choice for the other party, which was why he kept his life.
"The other party is about to make a move again."
Gu Zheng turned his head and saw that the Demon God had already picked up the black ball. As if to prevent Gu Zheng and the others from disturbing him, a layer of blood-red light shrouded the top of his head.
"I'll deal with it. You guys see what the other party is up to," Gu Zheng volunteered.
"Be careful. Since that's the case, wait for me. My secret technique is about to be completed. When the time comes, no matter what the other party does, we'll just charge at them," Elder Xiong said worriedly.
Just the addition of the other party's pet was enough to put a lot of pressure on them despite the other party's half-dead appearance. At the very least, their previous lineup was no longer a threat to the other party. Once Elder Xiong recovered his cultivation, they would crush the other party with absolute strength.
This was not the only way, but it was the safest way. Besides, they did not need to kill the other party. As long as the other party was weakened to a certain extent, they would naturally use their ultimate move.
"I'm the best at dealing with this kind of evil."
Gu Zheng gave the other party a reassuring look. His whole body actually rushed towards the other party. Along the way, a clanging sound could be heard. A golden light flashed beside him, and the Cloud Desolate Sword was already emitting a golden light.
Naturally, he would not get close to the Demon God. In fact, the black fog had already rushed out. He was at the front, and his body suddenly tilted. His hand took advantage of the momentum and slashed forward. A bright golden light suddenly burst out from the Cloud Desolate Sword.
This beam of golden light was like a huge shield. Its height almost reached the top, and its width took up three-quarters of the space. On the surface of the shield, there were countless golden longswords that were constantly swaying. Like a bulldozer, it pressed forward with a courageous momentum towards the demon.
The first to bear the brunt of the attack was the black fog. Almost before it came into contact, it had already dispersed. The ghostly figures that had just formed did not even make a sound before completely dissipating.
The Demon God looked at Gu Zheng and no longer looked at him with disdain. Just from this move alone, he could see the other party's foundation. It seemed that during the previous battle, he did not use his full strength. He did not care and directly threw out the black ball in his hand. All the black fog in the air retreated and was instantly sucked into the black ball.
In the next moment, the entire black ball suddenly exploded in the air. Accompanied by a loud ghostly cry, a black shadow formed by countless black fog appeared in the air. It just pushed its hands forward, ignoring the sharp swords, and directly pressed on the golden shield. It actually blocked the shield and directly dragged the other party into a stalemate in the air.
"Do you want me to help you?" The Vermilion Bird, who was preparing to attack the other party's defense, immediately shouted.
"No need, I can deal with the other party."
Gu Zheng did not even turn his head. With a pinch of his hand, the two sides of the shield in the distance immediately bent back to the middle, wanting to trap the Demon God inside.
At the same time, the golden swords on the shield trembled and constantly fell off the surface. Then, they turned slightly in the air and the tips of the swords rushed towards the Demon God with a sharp whistle.
The Demon God held the shield and could not move, but similarly, black ghost claws appeared around his body. He rushed forward without any hesitation and directly perished with the golden swords in the air.
Not only that, but more black fog also surged out from his body. It flowed along his arm to the shield and began to corrode it quickly. Black streaks kept spreading out in all directions. In the middle, there were even tiny black threads connected to it, like the veins of a tree leaf. Everything that passed by was controlled by the other party.
At most, in the span of a dozen breaths, the attack that Gu Zheng had spent a lot of energy to launch would be controlled by the other party and attacked him instead.
Gu Zheng felt that he was quickly losing control of the situation in front of him. He quickly pointed at a few spots on the Cloud Desolate Sword. Every time he pointed, the Cloud Desolate Sword would tremble and a golden flame would burst out from its body. Lines of runes hidden inside the sword would spin rapidly, and the entire sword seemed to come alive.
Finally, Gu Zheng patted heavily on the spot where Yu Zong was. The Cloud Desolate Sword immediately turned into a golden light and disappeared from his hand. Then, a loud dragon roar exploded in the air, and a huge golden dragon was revealed in the golden light.
Although its body was not big, the majestic aura it exuded was extremely powerful. A golden light beam shot out from its mouth and directly blasted a big hole in the Demon God's core that had been completely corrupted, revealing the Demon God behind it.
Countless black threads appeared from the ghostly figure's body. Tens of thousands of them shot out from the large hole that had been blasted open. They scattered in the air and rushed toward the golden dragon from different directions. They formed countless connected black webs, trying to control it as well.
The golden dragon swayed its body in the air, and layers of golden flame burst out from its body. Before the black threads could get close to it, they were already ignited. Then, with a burst of speed, it rushed from the center and disappeared into the big hole.
There was no sound, but an even more dazzling golden light rose from behind the big hole. The huge shield dissipated and the golden light retracted. The Cloud Desolate Sword turned upside down and returned to Gu Zheng's hand, but the Demon God had completely disappeared.
"Amazing!"
The Vermilion Bird could not help but exclaim in admiration.
That ghostly shadow's strength wasn't weak at all. If it was based on the transformation of strength, it was at least at the advanced-stage of the Golden Immortal Realm. Coupled with its extremely strange body, she felt that even she wouldn't be able to kill it as easily as Gu Zheng.
"It's nothing, I just restrained it a little." Gu Zheng waved his hand modestly. He glanced at Elder Xiong, who was standing still, and pointed to the front. At this moment, the Demon God had picked up the red ball again. "This is very difficult to deal with. I don't have a way to deal with it."
"Let me try." Even though the Vermilion Bird did not know the power of the red stream, she knew that it was not easy to deal with from Gu Zheng's simple explanation.
"I'll attack it from the side. I can't let it be so easy."
Gu Zheng nodded and did not retreat. He was prepared to forcefully attack the Demon God's defense. He could not let it be so fearless.
"Haha, you have some skill. It's been a long time since I had such fun. Let me play with you guys for a while." The Demon God did not mind and casually threw the red ball in his hand.
However, this time, the Demon God did not rely on the red ball to launch an attack. Instead, the monster that had been lying down stood up and took a step forward. A black circular straw extended from the monster's mouth and directly pierced into the red ball.
It was obvious that countless red liquid was continuously entering the monster's body through the straw. The wounds on the monster's body were rapidly healing, and even its pitch-black body was turning red.
At this moment, the Demon God plucked the last black ball from above. It was also the one they were most afraid of. Only the white ball on top gave off a holy feeling.
"It's the Origin Bead!"
Without any interference, the white ball's aura could be easily sensed. Gu Zheng instantly realized what it was and involuntarily cried out, "What is it?!
He never expected that the other party had made other preparations. It was no wonder that he dared not do anything when he snatched the other party's item.
At this moment, Gu Zheng completely understood that this monster was probably just a pet with a transformation function. In the end, it used other forces to cultivate the bead in its body.
"That's right. Do you think you can live peacefully just because you snatched my item? It's just that I don't have the time to compete with you now. However, since you've walked into the trap and are with them, that's good. None of you can escape. "The Demon God chuckled and gently stroked the black ball.
The black fog was constantly emerging from the black ball, making the Demon God's strange eyes look even more terrifying.
"Be careful. There's something strange inside. It can disturb one's mind and senses."
After seeing the terrifying aura, Meng Zhen immediately thought of her previous encounter and could not help but warn the other party and the others loudly.
Just as she spoke, the black ball had already shattered silently. Like cold air, it fell from the Demon God's palm to the ground and turned into clouds of black fog that rapidly spread in all directions.
