Wherever the black fog passed, the ground would turn dark as if it was being devoured by the other party.
Not only that, the black fog was also expanding rapidly in the process of spreading. By the time it had covered half of the distance, it had already filled up the entire space. It was impossible to see the situation at the Demon God's side. Moreover, the black fog was still spreading towards them.
"I'll cover Old Xiong. You go and take care of your friend!" Zhu Niao shouted at Gu Zheng.
Gu Zheng nodded and then retreated to the side of Meng Zhen.
"Stay close to me and be careful!"
"Elder Xiong and I have encountered similar situations in the past. All I need to do is to stay in the corner and ignore everything. When everything is over, you can use the painting to remind me." Meng Zhen seemed to have a card up his sleeve.
"That's a good idea, provided that the monster doesn't find trouble with you."
Gu Zheng agreed. Meng Zhen's face turned red. Only now did he realize that there was still an enemy, but he didn't know what to do.
"You just need to follow me. You don't need to ask about anything else."
In fact, most people didn't know much about the Demon God, but that didn't include people like them. As for what happened in the beginning, it wasn't a big secret. Naturally, they knew a little about it.
The Chaotic Qi didn't have any attributes. It could be used as anything. No matter what it was, as long as it was related to the opponent, it would greatly increase the power of the opponent. Even if the opponent's strength could only be converted by a little, and if it was an ordinary person, he would only be able to kill a Celestial Immortal. However, since the opponent was a Demon God, it was self-evident that he had to go all out to deal with him.
Soon, Zhu Niao and Little Phoenix who were guarding Old Xiong were devoured by the black fog and disappeared completely. The black fog would also engulf them in a few breaths' time.
Just as Gu Zheng was prepared to wait for the black fog to swallow them, a red light suddenly flashed on his body. It directly enveloped an area of three feet around him. The black fog was actually blocked outside. It tried its best to enter, but was unable to do so.
"This is?"
Meng Zhen's eyes looked to the side. Under Gu Zheng's neck, a faint red light was shining. It was the light that was supporting the defense.
She knew about this thing as it had shown its usefulness before. However, she didn't expect it to be so strange that even Old Xiong and Zhu Niao were helpless against it.
"This thing is good."
Hearing Meng Zhen's envious words, Gu Zheng didn't say anything. He just took out the Blood Origin Bead that was hanging around his neck. To be honest, he had forgotten about this thing. The bead's presence was too weak. Even though it had helped him pass through the maze, the maze was too simple, so he didn't care about it. He just treated it as a good souvenir that Pan Xuan gave him.
However, it would appear that what Wang Chong had said might be true. If that was the case, Wang Chong felt even more confident.
.. "" Follow me. We can't wait here. "
Gu Zheng didn't want to waste such a good opportunity. He immediately brought Meng Zhen to the Demonic God. The scene of the monster sucking the red bead was still fresh in his mind. He couldn't let it have its way. There was also the Demonic God. If he swallowed the Origin Bead and broke through this critical point, he couldn't guarantee that the Blood Origin Bead would be able to kill him.
After all, the Demonic God's existence was strange enough.
He didn't disturb Zhu Niao. He was already prepared to throw the Blood Origin Bead at the Demonic God and end it all. The Demonic God's actions made him feel uneasy. It seemed like he was using them. Just like how he polished the Origin Bead previously, he was using their strength to continue perfecting his Origin Bead. Although he didn't know how he did it, it seemed like he had already achieved his goal.
The more he thought about it, the more he felt that his guess was right. He quickened his pace and wanted to rush over. However, Meng Zhen couldn't keep up with him. If she were to get hurt in the black mist, it wouldn't be worth it. At most, it would delay them for a few breaths of time. He could only maintain the same speed as Meng Zhen.
By the time he thought about it, he was already near the Demonic God. He could already vaguely sense the Demonic God's location. The Blood Origin Bead in his hand lit up again. The entire protective shield expanded by half again. This was the largest range he could achieve. It just happened to cover the Demonic God and the others.
The red bead had shrunk by half. The Demonic God was holding the Origin Bead in his hand. He put his mouth in front of it with an intoxicated look. Wisps of white mist condensed into a solid line and were being sucked into his mouth continuously.
Gu Zheng's appearance completely stunned the Demonic God. He couldn't believe how the other party had safely entered this place. However, before he could speak, his eyes instantly focused on Gu Zheng's palm. Then, with a cold snort, his entire body suddenly disappeared.
Gu Zheng didn't even notice how the Demonic God had disappeared. He couldn't stop him in time. Of course, he felt that it was a pity. If only the Blood Origin Bead had the ability to trap people. The Demonic God clearly recognized the item in his hand and fled without a fight. Perhaps the Demonic God had sensed the danger and wanted to wait for him to completely swallow the Origin Bead before dealing with them.
Thinking about it was one thing. He naturally knew that he had to find the Demonic God first. However, there was still a hindrance in front of him. Just as he was about to rush toward the monster, the Demonic God seemed to know that something was wrong. He actually swallowed the red bead in front of him, leaving Gu Zheng no chance to interrupt him.
The Demonic God's body, which was originally red, suddenly expanded. Its body doubled in size. On both sides of its body, transparent red ribbons appeared. They danced in a disorderly manner, and some red mist drifted out from them.
The Demonic God's head, which couldn't be seen before, also appeared from the sturdy shell. The Demonic God's flat head had two red eyes that took up half of its head. It was looking at Gu Zheng with hatred.
Of course, the Demonic God didn't forget the heavy injuries that Gu Zheng had inflicted on the Demonic God. With a flap of its wings, it left a red trail in the air. Almost instantly, it appeared in front of Gu Zheng. The Demonic God's four front limbs immediately pierced toward Gu Zheng from different directions.
"Ding Ding Dang Dang."
Four consecutive sounds rang out. Gu Zheng protected Meng Zhen and took two steps back, accurately blocking the Demonic God's attack. However, he saw a red mark on his Cloud Desolate Sword. The next moment, a golden light flashed and disappeared from the sword. However, he could vaguely feel that the Demonic God was absorbing a negligible amount of energy from his body.
After absorbing the red ball, the Demonic God's body actually had that strange property. This was a bit troublesome.
Even if the Demonic God didn't have that layer of black mist on its body, and its defense didn't seem to be as abnormal as before, Gu Zheng didn't have the time to store up energy and just happened to hit the Demonic God's body.
Adding on the Demonic God's cultivation and how difficult it was to deal with, he had no idea how to deal with the Demonic God.
While he was thinking of a way to deal with the Demonic God, the Demonic God had already charged forward. Midway, it opened its mouth and spat out a large amount of mist like a drizzle.
"Hu!"
Gu Zheng raised his right hand. A scorching flame instantly formed an oval-shaped curtain of fire in front of him. He wanted to evaporate the mist.
However, the Demonic God's body actually passed through the curtain of fire. Furthermore, it even absorbed the power of the flames. Its body had expanded quite a bit, and it was even more ferocious as it smashed toward him.
Gu Zheng miserably dodged and then raised his weapon to block the Demonic God's attack. His entire body was sent flying by the Demonic God's huge strength. The Demonic God's body had directly escaped his red light and was hidden in the darkness.
"Are you alright? If not, I'll just stay at the side. "
Meng Zhen said with concern. She also knew that if she hadn't caused trouble for the Demonic God, he wouldn't have been sent flying so easily. She was the one who had dragged him down.
"No, you can see how strange the Demonic God's body is. If the Demonic God wanted to deal with you, you could still buy some time if there was no black curtain. But now, you can only wait for death." Gu Zheng bluntly rejected the Demonic God's suggestion of seeking death.
"Don't think that you have the painting scroll. Once this kind of power touches your body, unless you find a way to get rid of it, the Demonic God's body will continuously absorb your energy and vitality."
Hearing Gu Zheng's words, she knew that it was better to stay by Gu Zheng's side obediently. If it was really as Gu Zheng said, then she would really be courting death if she went out. It would only make the Demonic God worry.
While they were talking, Gu Zheng was still looking around. The red curtain couldn't block the Demonic God's body. With such a short distance, no matter which direction the Demonic God came from, it could reach him in the blink of an eye.
He was sure that the Demonic God was still nearby. It couldn't have gone to look for Elder Xiong. After all, Elder Xiong was protected by the Vermilion Bird and the little Phoenix she summoned. They were very powerful. On the other hand, there was no way Elder Xiong could compete with them. In addition to the hatred from before, the Demonic God must be watching him.
He didn't stand still and wait for the Demonic God's body. Instead, he flew directly in the direction he came from. The Demonic God followed him and stood outside the darkness. Countless red streams of water were flowing around its body. It was obviously brewing something.
Although Gu Zheng didn't have a good way to deal with the Demonic God, it didn't stop him from stopping it. With a thought, an ordinary long sword floated beside him and flew towards the Demonic God's body.
The Demonic God didn't care at all. Dozens of tentacles flew out from its body, trying to entangle the long sword. As long as it was trapped, the Demonic God would be able to control this ordinary weapon in the blink of an eye.
However, when the long sword approached the Demonic God's body and was about to touch it, it exploded. The dozens of tentacles were blown apart. Even the Demonic God's body was blown away by the huge shockwave.
It didn't cause any damage to the Demonic God's body. The Demonic God's attack was dispelled and the Demonic God's attack was interrupted. The Demonic God didn't receive any backlash. This made the Demonic God even angrier. Its entire body emitted countless red smoke. The next moment, it started to surround Gu Zheng.
Circle after circle, it seemed to be looking for Gu Zheng's weakness.
"Look at the red smoke around us. The Demonic God wants to seal us off completely," Meng Zhen suddenly shouted.
Gu Zheng was so focused on defending against the Demonic God's attack that he didn't notice the thin layer of red smoke around him. After Meng Zhen's reminder, he immediately noticed the situation around him.
To be honest, he didn't have a good idea of how to deal with the red smoke. He still hadn't thought of a good way to deal with it. If he used Cleansing Fire, he was sure he could deal with the Demonic God. However, he felt that it would be a waste.
The Demonic God was only relying on this power. If he didn't have this power, it wouldn't be so difficult for him to deal with the Demonic God.
"Here, take this." Meng Zhen saw that Gu Zheng wasn't moving. He quickly took out some black crystals and handed them to Gu Zheng.
"Why didn't I think of that? I still have some. I don't need yours." Gu Zheng immediately understood what Meng Zhen meant.
"Even a wise man can make mistakes. You just haven't thought of it yet," Meng Zhen explained.
Gu Zheng laughed and took out the black stone in his hand. He couldn't deal with the red smoke, but he could deal with the Demonic God.
The weakness of the Demonic God was obvious. Against weaker creatures or other creatures, the Demonic God could quickly control and absorb them. However, against him, the Demonic God could only fight a tug of war. In other words, the Demonic God didn't have enough explosive power.
Of course, he was confident. After all, the Demonic God had shown its power before, especially against the Demonic God.
The Demonic God shattered the crystal in his hand. He forcefully pulled it out and mixed some of his mana into it. The crystal was like a pile of mud. It formed into a very rough looking black sword.
Gu Zheng didn't care. After all, the Demonic God was the Demonic God. Of course, he could give it to the Demonic God. However, Gu Zheng was too lazy to waste his mana. It wouldn't affect the Demonic God's power.
The Demonic God's black sword flew out. It was a little crooked in the air. It came to the top of the Demonic God's head and slashed down.
The Demonic God's reaction was very intense. When the Demonic God's black sword appeared, it stopped moving. It kept spitting out red water from its mouth. In the end, the Demonic God's body was surrounded by the red water. It was very afraid of the Demonic God's black sword.
However, the Demonic God's defense was like jelly. It was easily pushed aside by the Demonic God's black sword. The Demonic God's red mist wanted to climb up the Demonic God's body, but it was like ice. It was perfectly left on the surface. It couldn't attach itself to the Demonic God's body, let alone control it.
An extremely painful roar came from the Demonic God's mouth. On the Demonic God's body, there was an extremely long and narrow cut. A large amount of red water flowed out from the cut. It looked like the Demonic God's blood.
Gu Zheng saw how powerful the Demonic God's black sword was. Dealing with the Demonic God was like bullying a child. The Demonic God couldn't resist at all. If the Demonic God hadn't dodged at the last moment, it would have been cut in two.
Naturally, he wouldn't miss such a good opportunity. The Demonic God's black sword was constantly fluctuating. As time passed, it would naturally lose its effectiveness. He couldn't waste any time. He immediately controlled the Demonic God's black sword to turn back and stab at the Demonic God.
At this moment, the Demonic God's speed increased. It began to dodge. At the same time, a large amount of red water was spat out from its mouth. All of it was suspended in the air, completely enveloping Gu Zheng and the others. Some of the Demonic God's red mist had already filled the space. However, under the illumination of the Demonic God's Blood Pearl, it was almost impossible to distinguish.
A faint layer of black water rose up around Gu Zheng. It was Meng Zhen who had crushed his Demonic God's Black Stone to provide a layer of defense around them. It would prevent Gu Zheng from disturbing them. He even had a Demonic God's Black Stone in his hand. If the Demonic God dared to charge over, he could attack it at any time. This also made the Demonic God's Blood Pearl a lot more cautious.
In just half a cup of tea's time, the Demonic God's Blood Pearl was in a sorry state after being chased by the Demonic God's Blood Pearl. There wasn't a single part of its body that was intact. However, the surrounding area had become a long red river, almost filling up this small space. It could be said that they were completely trapped here.
With so much Demonic God's Blood Pearl, if the Demonic God's Blood Pearl were to come crashing down on them, Gu Zheng and Demonic God's Blood Pearl would be in serious trouble.
The Demonic God's Blood Pearl increased its speed and temporarily escaped from the Demonic God's Blood Pearl. Its entire body stood upright, and its few injured claws kept waving in the air. At the same time, it spat out a red pearl that was only the size of an eye. After that, the entire Demonic God's Blood Pearl began to boil.
Gu Zheng gave Meng Zhen a look. At the same time, he controlled the Demonic God's Blood Pearl to stab at the Demonic God's Blood Pearl. However, from the looks of it, it was impossible to stop the Demonic God's Blood Pearl in time.
However, at the moment when all the Demonic God's Blood Pearl was about to pour down, Meng Zhen threw the Demonic God's Blood Pearl in her hand out. She forcefully opened up a passage for one person to pass through the Demonic God's Blood Pearl in the Demonic God's Blood Pearl. Gu Zheng's Blood Pearl and Demonic God's Blood Pearl immediately.
At the same time, all the water currents squeezed towards his original position, but they all hit nothing.
If it had been a bit earlier, it would have been seen through by the enemy, and if it had been a bit later, it would have been attacked by the enemy. The timing was perfect. The two of them worked together so well that the monster could only watch as its target ran away, while it could only have a black sword descend from the sky and pierce its body from the top of its head. It couldn't do anything else, and its body suddenly expanded into a round ball.
Even though he had already reached his limit, his entire body was still trembling.
Bang!
Following a huge explosion, the monster's body was completely torn apart by the violent power.
The black and red colors within his body splashed out chaotically in all directions. Even the large red river beside him flowed continuously in all directions under the influence of this enormous force.
Gu Zheng had fled far away, so he wasn't affected at all. He turned back to look at the glimmer of light in the black world. Although it disappeared in the blink of an eye, he understood that the monster had been completely eliminated.
Before he could rejoice, something even more exciting happened. When the red water currents flowed in all directions, it absorbed the power of the black world. Everywhere it passed, it returned to its original state.
However, the red water currents didn't seem to be able to completely digest the enemy, and they were also decreasing rapidly.
Seeing this, Gu Zheng directly brought Meng Zhen and rushed into the center of the river again. Anyway, with the protection of the black rock, the enemy couldn't threaten them at all.
Then, Gu Zheng took the initiative to hit the void with his palms in all directions. He consciously let the uncontrollable water currents flow in all directions.
He remembered Elder Xiong's position, so he naturally wouldn't go near them.
When the red water currents were completely exhausted, most of the space had returned to normal. Only the surrounding area was still black, and there were some scattered black pieces in the middle that stubbornly stood in the middle.
Even though they were only the size of a palm, they couldn't be ignored.
Gu Zheng took a deep breath and then looked at the black area beside him. Zhu Niao was still there, and she didn't know what was happening outside.
Just as he was about to go in and tell her what was happening outside, his expression suddenly changed. He immediately turned around and propped up a defense, protecting him and Meng Zhen.
At the same time, a terrifying aura swept across from afar.
