"The energy of heaven and earth!"
"This is the energy of heaven and earth!"
"Second brother!"
The remaining three people were either murmuring in horror or crying out in grief.
The second level of the Thunder Tooth Sword contained the power of heaven and earth, which had been used against the Xue Guang Ancestor. However, Gu Zheng had not used the lightning to attack the Xue Guang Ancestor. After all, with the Xue Guang Ancestor's cultivation, the lightning could not do much damage to him. Its greatest use was in defense. However, the power of the lightning was more than enough to deal with a few Level Five cultivators.
"As long as you tell me obediently, I will let you live according to our agreement. However, if you want to be a tough nut to crack, he will be your example!" Gu Zheng said coldly.
"Bah, don't even think about it!"
The man who had been crying out in grief spat at Gu Zheng. The death of the red-robed old man had not shaken him. Instead, it had aroused his anger.
"A tough nut to crack? Very well! "
The Ancient Battle Sword Art pointed and condensed into a bolt of lightning that flew out. It wrapped around the Demonic Dao cultivator who was acting like a tough nut to crack until he was burned by the lightning.
"There are only two of you left. Do you want to live or die?" Gu Zheng asked.
"I want to live, I want to live!"
After two people had died in succession, Wu Laosan was really frightened. His face was pale as he shouted at Gu Zheng.
"Well, if you want to live, answer my question."
A smile appeared on Gu Zheng's face. There were still people who were afraid of death after all!
However, the smile on Gu Zheng's face disappeared in the blink of an eye. Then, an unexpected change occurred! The other person, who also looked like he was trembling, suddenly opened his mouth and spat out a green arrow of saliva at Wu Laosan. This arrow of saliva was shot accurately into Wu Laosan's mouth!
Although the second level of the Thunder Tooth Sword could mobilize some of the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, this mobilization belonged to the Thunder Tooth Sword itself. If Gu Zheng wanted to use it, he could not do it as freely as if he could blink an eye. Therefore, when the change happened, he could not stop it in time.
"Haha …"
Old Third Wu's throat made a strange sound as if someone was strangling him. His exposed skin turned green in an instant.
"You're courting death!"
Gu Zheng was furious. He gritted his teeth and looked at the person who had assassinated Old Third Wu.
"I have no intention of living after killing Third Brother. I think it's better if you don't think about what you want to know!"
The man who had assassinated Old Third Wu sneered, and the skin all over his body began to fester rapidly.
Gu Zheng didn't stop him. There were many people in the demonic path who could use special methods to commit suicide. He had heard of this before, but when encountering such a tough nut to crack, there were very few good methods.
The four people who were originally trapped were all dead. Gu Zheng did not get an answer to what he wanted to know in the end.
However, Gu Zheng wasn't too depressed. Anyway, it was impossible for Kunlun to never know about the attack of the Devil Path. So, let them investigate it themselves.
After a simple cleaning of the battlefield, Gu Zheng didn't find anything useful. Soon, he returned to the camp of the Heaven Heart Sect and the Heavenly Spiral Sect.
Seeing Gu Zheng return, the people of the Heaven Heart Sect immediately went up to welcome him.
"Brother Gu, thank you so much for rescuing Tong Rui and the others safely!" Zhang Dongliang cupped his fists to Gu Zheng.
"It's a small matter. I just helped when I could," Gu Zheng said lightly.
"Brother Gu, let's talk inside the tent. This way please!"
Zhang Dongliang gestured to Gu Zheng. They were welcoming Gu Zheng back, but the Heavenly Spiral Sect was still immersed in the shadow of heavy casualties. It wasn't good to talk outside.
"Fellow Cultivator Gu, thank you so much for saving me. What happened when you saved me?"
Tong Rui couldn't help but ask when they entered the tent. When she was saved by Gu Zheng, they didn't talk much because of the heavy atmosphere.
Faced with Tong Rui's question and the curious gazes of Zhang Dongliang and the others, Gu Zheng tried his best to simplify what happened when he saved Tong Rui.
"In that case, we were brought to that cave by them, and Fellow Cultivator Gu killed them all, right?" Tong Rui asked again.
"Yes, what's wrong?" Gu Zheng asked.
"Nothing. I just felt that they were too hateful. I wanted to kill them with my own hands!"
Tong Rui blushed. She was taken away from a special time and woke up with her clothes intact. Just thinking about it made her extremely embarrassed.
"It's good that it's nothing. Anyway, they are already dead." Gu Zheng shrugged.
"Fellow Daoist Gu, did you chase after those people just now?"
Yang Zhenling couldn't help but ask the question that Zhang Dongliang didn't want him to ask.
"Why would you ask that?" Gu Zheng was stunned. "There were only a few of them. I didn't have the ability to chase after them. I just followed them to see if I could find anything."
Gu Zheng didn't look like he was lying. This made Yang Zhenling and the others look at each other.
"Brother Gu, did you find anything?" Zhang Dongliang asked.
Gu Zheng shook his head and said, "I didn't find anything special. I just found out that they seemed to have other tasks to carry out. The harassment of the Heaven Will Sect and the Heavenly Spiral Sect should be over."
Hearing Gu Zheng's explanation, Zhang Dongliang and the others glanced at one another. Disbelief flashed through their eyes.
"I thought you went to chase after those people. It turns out that you didn't!"
A voice came from outside the tent. Luo Jin and Shangguan Feng came over.
"Chase after those people? Even you don't have that ability. How can I? "
Hearing the sarcasm in Luo Jin's tone, Gu Zheng looked at his swollen hands and smiled sarcastically.
"You …"
Luo Jin wanted to say something but was interrupted by Shangguan Feng.
"Fellow Cultivator Gu, are you saying that his harassment should end here?" Shangguan Feng asked.
During the time when Gu Zheng was chasing after the Diabolism people, Shangguan Feng and Zhang Dongliang had talked. Shangguan Feng's guess about Gu Zheng saving Tong Rui and leaving was the same as Zhang Dongliang's.
"Anyway, that's what I heard," Gu Zheng said lightly.
"That's good. That's good."
Shangguan Feng murmured. There was no relief in her voice, only helplessness.
If Shangguan Feng was the only one from the Heavenly Spiral Sect here, he would have used the Nine-Colored Illusion Sonic Shell when confronting the Diabolism people. However, he still had to lead the team. His mission made him have a lot of concerns and made him feel deeply depressed.
The night passed quickly. No matter how alert the Heaven Will Sect and the Heavenly Spiral Sect were, nothing happened that night. Not only that, it was the same during the day.
When it was close to dusk, they were not far from the Kunlun Sect. Gu Zheng told Yang Zhenling and the others that he had something to deal with and would not enter the Kunlun Sect with them.
Gu Zheng came to the Kunlun Sect with a mission this time. The Kunlun Divine Stone was in an important place of the Kunlun Sect. Other than applying to the Kunlun Sect to see it, there was no other way.
At the beginning, Gu Zheng told Yang Zhenling and the others that he was just a rogue cultivator because he did not want to be ridiculed. He did not expect that he would have to communicate with them later. Now that he had to report his identity to the Kunlun Sect, he could not go with Yang Zhenling and the others.
Gu Zheng found a random place and stayed there until the sky turned dark. Then he rushed to the Kunlun Sect.
There were long steps and the majestic and simple mountain gate. The two words "Kunlun" were carved in flamboyant calligraphy.
Although it was night, the Kunlun Sect was brightly lit because of the Kunlun Grand Meeting.
"Who are you? What are you doing here?"
In front of the mountain gate of the Kunlun Sect, the guarding disciple asked Gu Zheng.
"Gu Zheng, the leader of the Emei Sect, is here to visit the leader of the Kunlun Sect, Wu Chen Zi," Gu Zheng said in a clear voice.
"The leader of the Emei Sect?"
The two guarding disciples frowned and looked at each other.
"What a rare guest. I did not expect the leader of the Emei Sect to come to our Kunlun Sect."
"That's right! I did not expect that someone from the Emei Sect would come to our Kunlun Sect during this Grand Meeting. Moreover, it is the leader of the Emei Sect! "
Listening to the guard disciple's playful words, Gu Zheng's face was calm. After all, the Emei Sect had offended the Kunlun Sect. Now that they had come to their territory, it would be strange if they were not ridiculed.
Seeing that Gu Zheng did not speak and his face was expressionless, the two guarding disciples opened their mouth again.
"If I remember correctly, our Kunlun Sect did not send an invitation to the Emei Sect. I wonder why the leader of the Emei Sect came to visit our Kunlun Sect at this time?"
"Could it be for resources? Could it be that the leader of the Emei Sect came to our Kunlun Sect to ask for some resources? "
The two guarding disciples talked to themselves, but in the end, the topic was brought to Gu Zheng.
"Don't worry, I don't want your Kunlun Sect's resources. I just have an important matter to discuss with Wuchen Zi!" Gu Zheng said seriously.
"Important matter? What important matter? "
"Yes, could it be that you want to meet our leader, so you are looking for an excuse? We have seen a lot of people like you! "
The two guarding disciples smiled and still refused to report.
"If there is an important matter, then there is an important matter. Do I need to explain to you what it is? Who are you? If I can explain it to you, then is it still an important matter? " Gu Zheng sneered and said, "I have already said it. If you want to report, then go now. If you don't want to report, then I will go back now. In the future, when the influence of this matter comes out, don't blame me for not warning you. You can't afford to be punished!"
Gu Zheng, who was originally calm, changed his attitude. Although the two guarding disciples were embarrassed, they did not dare to continue to ridicule him.
"Wait here. I will go in and report to you!" One of the guarding disciples said.
"Fifteen minutes is enough for a normal report. I will give you twenty minutes. If you don't come back in twenty minutes, I will leave here."
Gu Zheng had been embarrassed in front of the gate of the Qingcheng Sect. He did not want the same thing to happen again.
Hearing Gu Zheng's words, the guarding disciple who went to report stopped and shook his sleeves fiercely. Just as Gu Zheng had expected, he'd originally intended to delay for a period of time and make Gu Zheng wait properly. But now, he didn't dare to do that.
Gu Zheng waited for about fifteen minutes outside the gate. The guarding disciple who went in to report led a middle-aged man with a long face out.
"This is Deacon Guo of our Kunlun Sect. The leader is now in charge of receiving him because of an important matter." The guarding disciple said.
"The leader of Emei Sect, Gu Zheng?" Deacon Guo asked.
"Yes." Gu Zheng said.
"Well, as young as the rumors say." Deacon Guo nodded. "If you have something important to say, you can tell me. I will pass it on to the leader."
Deacon Guo's tone was still acceptable, but Gu Zheng's brows still furrowed.
Under normal circumstances, when a leader of a sect came and said that he had something important to see the leader of the Kunlun Sect, even if the leader of the Kunlun Sect had something to do and could not get away, he should let an elder come out to receive him. Only then could it be regarded as important. Moreover, the reception should be to invite him into the gate and have a chat with him. But now, Deacon Guo's so-called reception was just to ask him questions, and he was facing the guarding disciple in front of the gate. There was no sense of importance in it.
"There are some things about the Devil Path. When I came here, I happened to be attacked by the Devil Path people. I caught a Devil Path person and learned some secrets from him. This secret can only be told to leader Wuchen Zi. If he has something to do now, I will take my leave first."
Gu Zheng left as soon as he said. If the Kunlun Sect's resentment of Emei Sect had reached the extent that he could not even enter the gate, then it was simply impossible to see the 'Divine Stone of Kunlun' through normal means. In that case, there was no point in staying here and chatting.
"Leader Gu, please stay. If you really need to talk to our leader face to face, it is not impossible, but Leader Gu needs to stay in our Kunlun Sect for a while." Deacon Guo said with a smile.
"Okay!"
Gu Zheng originally wanted to enter the Kunlun Sect. Now that Deacon Guo invited him in, he would not refuse.
"It just so happens that during this period of time, it is also our Kunlun Sect's grand event. Leader Gu will not be too lonely here." Deacon Guo made an inviting gesture to Gu Zheng.
After following Deacon Guo into the Kunlun Sect's mountain gate, they did not walk far before some high and low houses appeared in front of them. The surroundings also became more lively, and there were people walking on the road from time to time.
The mountain gate was built on the mountainside, and the real core of the Kunlun Sect was at the top of the mountain. There was the famous Ancestral Dragon Hall of the Kunlun Sect, the famous Dragon Battle Square of the Kunlun Sect, and some of the iconic buildings of the Kunlun Sect.
The closer they walked to the top of the mountain, the more people they met on the road. Most of these people came to participate in the Kunlun Grand Event, and their faces were filled with joy.
Deacon Guo brought Gu Zheng to the guest room, briefly explained some of the rules of the Kunlun Sect, and then left. After Deacon Guo left, Gu Zheng did not stay in the guest room for long. He wanted to go to the Dragon Battle Square of the Kunlun Sect to take a look.
The Dragon Battle Square of the Kunlun Sect was very famous. There was an immortal array arranged on it. During the Flourishing Magic Era, it was the ideal place for immortal cultivators to fight and learn from each other.
Although it was night now, it was also the time of the Kunlun Sect's grand event. Therefore, the Dragon Battle Square was very lively, just like a market.
Most of the merchants in the market were from the Kunlun Sect. Of course, there were also those who came to participate in the grand event. However, compared to the merchants of the Kunlun Sect, the resources they sold were less, and the quality was generally not good.
Gu Zheng went to the Dragon Battle Square to see if he could find some resources. In any case, Deacon Guo did not say when Wuchen Zi would finish his business. Gu Zheng was also idle, so it was good to go to the Dragon Battle Square to try his luck.
