By the time Gu Zheng brought Meow Meow back to Blood Tide Island, it was already late at night. They entered the Obsidian Snail Sect from the side of the island.
Although it was late at night, the Obsidian Snail Sect was not as quiet as they had imagined. All of this had to do with Gu Zheng.
The disciples of the Obsidian Snail Sect were divided into two factions. One faction was mostly loyal to the sect leader, Rong Qiu. The other faction was smaller in number and was loyal to the Great Elder, Leng Feng.
Leng Feng was killed by Gu Zheng yesterday. When Gu Zheng cleaned up the battlefield, he naturally destroyed his body and destroyed all evidence. This created the illusion that the Great Elder had disappeared with the sect's cultivation resources.
After waiting for almost a day, Leng Feng still did not appear. Rong Qiu's attitude towards this matter had undergone a subtle change. He no longer wanted to know why Leng Feng had disappeared without a trace. He only wanted to use this rare opportunity to eliminate the dissidents in the sect.
At this moment, the Obsidian Snail Sect was fighting fiercely. In the face of Rong Qiu's attack, the disciples loyal to Leng Feng naturally resisted with all their might.
Gu Zheng, who was standing in the air, immediately saw Rong Qiu who was watching the battle from a safe place. He frowned and separated a divine thought light spot.
When cultivators were investigating something, they could separate a strand of divine thought. But when fighting, divine thought appeared in the form of light spots.
Gu Zheng did not want to alert too many people, so he separated a divine thought light spot to knock Rong Qiu out and then take him away.
With Rong Qiu's late-stage Level Five cultivation, it was easy for the divine thought light spot to knock him out. He did not even notice.
However, something strange happened. Rong Qiu seemed to have sensed something and looked in the direction of the divine thought light spot.
Gu Zheng clearly saw Rong Qiu's eyes widen. He, who was supposed to be hit by the divine thought light spot, disappeared into thin air.
"Spatial fluctuation!"
Gu Zheng frowned. When Rong Qiu disappeared, the energy of heaven and earth vibrated. It was a special fluctuation produced by space. Gu Zheng felt this special fluctuation when he was on the Teleportation Immortal Formation.
Was there a Teleportation Immortal Formation under Rong Qiu's feet? The answer was definitely no! The only possibility Gu Zheng could think of for such an anomaly was that it had something to do with the nine-storied pagoda!
For a moment, Gu Zheng's hatred for Rong Qiu had reached its peak.
While Gu Zheng was burning with rage, his sensing ability quickly spread out with the Divine Sense light spot as the center, just like how he usually did when he was scouting.
The speed at which his perception spread out was extremely fast. Gu Zheng quickly discovered Rong Qiu's location, and Rong Qiu's location was a full ten miles away from the sect.
At this moment, Rong Qiu was hiding in a cave behind the Black Sky Snail Sect. This was where he usually cultivated in seclusion.
"Damn it!"
Rong Qiu, who had just escaped death, was still gasping for breath. Rong Qiu immediately let out a scream because the Holy Pagoda in his hand made it sense that another cultivator's spiritual sense was approaching.
"Ahhh …"
The two disciples who were in charge of guarding the cave screamed. Rong Qiu saw with his own eyes that a white light spot touched their bodies gently. When they fell, they quickly turned into ashes!
Rong Qiu's mind moved. The Holy Pagoda in his hand immediately flew up and became much longer. He rode on it and broke through the mountain from the other side of the cave.
"Which senior did Rong Qiu offend? Please show yourself!"
Rong Qiu, who was riding on the Holy Pagoda, was so scared that he almost peed his pants! Even though he had the Holy Pagoda, he could only feel a deep sense of helplessness in the face of a cultivator who could kill with his spiritual sense.
"Rong Qiu, you can't redeem yourself even if you die a hundred times!" Gu Zheng transmitted his spiritual sense to Rong Qiu.
"Gu Zheng!"
Rong Qiu screamed in shock. He would never have imagined that the 'senior expert' whom he was so afraid of was actually Gu Zheng.
"Senior Gu, why do you want to kill me?"
Despite the shock, Rong Qiu chose to be a coward in order to survive.
"I'll tell you when you're dead!"
Gu Zheng's voice was filled with hatred. He spoke through gritted teeth.
Almost as soon as Gu Zheng finished speaking, the light spot of spiritual sense caught up with Rong Qiu and slammed into him.
Rong Qiu's body disappeared again. The Holy Pagoda that was flying in the air immediately fell.
"Do you think you can survive by escaping into the nine-story pagoda?" Gu Zheng sneered.
"I'll live a little longer. Come in if you dare!"
Rong Qiu shouted in the Holy Pagoda. He felt that this was his only chance. As long as Gu Zheng's spiritual sense dared to enter the Holy Pagoda, he might be able to use the restrictions in the Holy Pagoda to trap Gu Zheng's spiritual sense and escape successfully. He might even be able to kill Gu Zheng!
"What can you do to me if I go in?"
Gu Zheng did not hesitate. His spiritual sense immediately entered the nine-story pagoda.
As soon as his spiritual sense entered, Gu Zheng immediately felt a viscous resistance. This resistance was like a swamp, trying to trap his spiritual sense.
Unfortunately, Gu Zheng's spiritual sense was very strong. It was far from being trapped by this level of resistance.
"What level are you in?"
Rong Qiu exclaimed. He thought that Gu Zheng's cultivation level was at most in the Divine Transformation Realm. The resistance in the Holy Pagoda would definitely be able to trap a spiritual sense of such a level! However, it seemed that Gu Zheng's cultivation level was not in the Divine Transformation Realm. It was impossible for a Divine Transformation Realm cultivator to have such a strong spiritual sense!
"Even if I'm not in my current level, you still can't escape death!"
Gu Zheng roared. The light spot of spiritual sense moved along a certain path as if it was trying to break through a formation. The resistance was completely ineffective against him.
"What's going on?"
Rong Qiu was completely shocked. The abnormality in his eyes was beyond his imagination.
"You're using my Immortal Artifact against me. Aren't you a little too naive?"
Gu Zheng's words caused Rong Qiu's eyes to widen to the extreme.
The Blood Soul Sect once wanted to use the Nine-Story Pagoda to deal with Gu Zheng, but Gu Zheng turned the tables. Now, Rong Qiu wanted to use the Nine-Story Pagoda to deal with Gu Zheng, and the tables were turned as well.
"This, this is impossible!"
Rong Qiu exclaimed. His body was ejected from the Holy Pagoda in his heart.
Just as Rong Qiu was ejected from the Nine-Story Pagoda, he was hit hard by the Nine-Story Pagoda. Blood gushed out of his mouth as he was sent flying.
Before Rong Qiu landed on the ground, Gu Zheng's hand had already grabbed his head and forcibly used Induction on him.
Even without Induction, Gu Zheng knew that Rong Qiu had refined the Nine-Story Pagoda into his personal Immortal Artifact. This was also what made Gu Zheng extremely angry!
Once an Immortal Artifact was refined into a Natal Immortal Artifact, the Immortal Artifact would inevitably be damaged if the owner of the Immortal Artifact died. There was no upper limit to this kind of damage, and it was determined by the degree of refinement of the Immortal Artifact by the owner.
From Leng Feng, Gu Zheng already had a better understanding of the Nine-Story Pagoda. Naturally, he was also aware of its Divine Powers.
Previously, when Rong Qiu suddenly disappeared in the Black Sky Snail Sect, Gu Zheng was shocked. The first thing that came to his mind was that this damned guy must have refined the Nine-Story Pagoda into his personal Immortal Artifact. This was because, for a Immortal Artifact like the Nine-Story Pagoda, some of its Divine Powers had to be refined by the Immortal Artifact. According to the information provided by Leng Feng, the Nine-Story Pagoda had never been refined by anyone from the Black Sky Snail Sect!
No one had refined the Nine-Story Pagoda before. This did not mean that no one had ever thought of doing so. However, those who had such thoughts were restricted by the teachings of their ancestors and did not dare to turn their thoughts into reality. The reason why their ancestors had passed down such a rule was that once the Nine-Story Pagoda became a personal Immortal Artifact, as long as the original owner died, it would inevitably be damaged. How could it continue to be passed down?
Just like Gu Zheng's Emei Ring, he did not have the right to refine it into a personal Immortal Artifact. This was because the Emei Ring had to be passed down to the next Emei Sect leader.
Gu Zheng asked a few questions, most of which were related to the Sacred Blood Sect. After all, he had already gotten the answers from Leng Feng regarding other matters.
"Rong Qiu, even if you die a hundred times, you won't be able to redeem yourself!"
After knowing what he wanted to know, Gu Zheng used his Divine Thought to disintegrate Rong Qiu into a pile of ashes.
After putting away the Nine-Story Pagoda, Gu Zheng flew back to the Red Sky Snail Sect with Meow Meow.
After entering the Red Sky Snail Sect through the normal procedures, Gu Zheng immediately sent someone to inform Mu Chunfeng.
It did not take long for Mu Chunfeng to arrive at the small courtyard where Gu Zheng lived.
Mu Chunfeng could not hide the smile on his face. He heaved a sigh of relief that Gu Zheng had returned safely from the Heavenly Snail Cave.
After taking a seat in the central room, Mu Chunfeng asked impatiently, "Sect Leader Gu, how was the trip to the Heavenly Snail Cave?"
Gu Zheng understood that Mu Chunfeng must be extremely curious about what had happened in the Celestial Snail Cavern. After all, the Celestial Snail Cavern had been destroyed. It was already a miracle that he was still alive and sitting in front of Mu Chunfeng.
Gu Zheng did not beat around the bush. He picked out some things that could be said about the Heavenly Snail Cave. Even so, the story of the Heavenly Snail Cave still shocked Mu Chunfeng. It took him a full two minutes to recover.
"I really did not expect the Heavenly Snail Cave to be set up like this by the Ancestral Master. I also did not expect the Ancestral Master to actually …"
There were so many things that Mu Chunfeng could not wrap his head around them. He really did not know what to say for a moment.
Mu Chunfeng was silent for the second time. This time, he was silent for a full five minutes before he raised his head.
"Sect Leader Gu, the Demon Sect has obtained the Nine-Colored Illusion Sonic Conch. The Blood Tide Forbidden Area is actually such a place. What should our Red Sky Snail Sect do?" Mu Chunfeng looked at Gu Zheng with a worried face.
"Sect Leader Mu, what I told you today, you should keep it to yourself. There's no need to tell anyone for the time being. As for what your Red Sky Snail Sect should do, it's best to pretend that you don't know anything for the time being. Just act according to the circumstances! "Gu Zheng said.
"That's good. Thank you for your guidance, Sect Leader Gu." Mu Chunfeng cupped his fists.
At this time, Mu Chunfeng was still a little confused. After all, the Demon Sect's conspiracy was enough to turn the entire Blood Tide Island into a battlefield between good and evil.
"I've already told Sect Master Mu everything that needs to be said. Now, it's time for me to leave this place. As for the matter regarding the Demon Gate, I have to inform Kunlun and Mount Shu as soon as possible. Therefore, I won't be staying on Blood Tide Island any longer," Gu Zheng said.
"It's late at night. Sect Leader Gu, can you leave tomorrow?" Mu Chunfeng urged him to stay.
"No, I'll leave tonight!"
Gu Zheng smiled and waved his finger at Meow Meow.
Meow Meow understood and nodded its head. A piece of cloth covering the corner of the central room was immediately blown away by the wind. Some gold boxes were neatly stacked underneath.
"According to our agreement, I'll give you some of the harvest of the Heavenly Snail Cave. You also know that the harvest of resources in the Heavenly Snail Cave is limited, so most of the boxes here are filled with gold and silver treasures," Gu Zheng said.
Mu Chunfeng was a good person, so Gu Zheng gave him more than half of the gold and silver treasures. As for the resources and the like, Gu Zheng didn't give him much. However, there were still three boxes, including some fifth-grade resources and some special resources.
"Sect Leader Gu is too polite! You can keep these things. In the future, the Heavenly Snail Sect will have to rely on Emei! "
Mu Chunfeng wasn't happy about Gu Zheng's bonus. Instead, he stood up nervously and cupped his fists at Gu Zheng.
Mu Chunfeng wasn't stupid. Gu Zheng's power really shocked him time and time again! Especially the story in the Heavenly Snail Cave. Although Gu Zheng had edited it several times, Mu Chunfeng could still speculate that it was extraordinary.
Seeing Mu Chunfeng's reaction, Gu Zheng was quite satisfied. He felt that Mu Chunfeng was a smart person who knew the severity and propriety.
Moreover, Gu Zheng also understood that Mu Chunfeng's words just now were to make the Red Sky Snail Sect acknowledge Emei as their boss! Gu Zheng only smiled faintly at Mu Chunfeng's request.
"That's a separate matter! These things belong to the part of our agreement. You just have to accept them. As for the future, if your Red Sky Snail Sect has any trouble, I'll help within my ability, "Gu Zheng said.
Mu Chunfeng's eyes were full of gratitude. "With Sect Leader Gu's words, I can't thank you enough!"
"Sect Leader Mu, I feel that you're a good person. Before I leave, I'll give you a gift."
Gu Zheng placed a small box on the table. "Alright, there's no need to send me off."
Gu Zheng left with Meow Meow. Mu Chunfeng wanted to say something, but Gu Zheng had already said that he didn't want to send him off. He didn't dare to say anything more and could only cup his fists at Gu Zheng again.
After Gu Zheng left, Mu Chunfeng opened the gift from Gu Zheng. Excitement immediately appeared on his face.
Although this was the first time Mu Chunfeng had seen the 'Pure Pill', during her time in Kunlun, she had seen this miraculous pill from Gu Zheng. Its pill fragrance and pill color had already spread far and wide.
Gu Zheng left Blood Tide Island. When his phone had a signal, he directly dialed the number of Shu Mountain's contact point.
Gu Zheng told others that he would inform Kunlun and Shu Mountain about the Demon Gate. But in fact, he wouldn't inform Kunlun. After all, Emei was a branch of Shu Mountain. He just needed to inform Shu Mountain. As for Kunlun, Shu Mountain would naturally inform them separately.
The current Emei was no longer the Emei of the past. If it was the Emei of the past, Gu Zheng wouldn't even be able to find the Grand Elder Xuan Qizi. Even if he found the Sect Leader of Shu Mountain, it would probably be an indefinite wait.
But it was different now. When Gu Zheng said that he wanted to talk to Xuan Qizi, the messenger disciple didn't hesitate at all. When he learned that the matter was related to the world, the messenger disciple immediately sent someone to Shu Mountain.
When the sky was about to brighten, Gu Zheng, who was still on his way back to Emei, received a call from Xuan Qizi.
After a simple chat, Gu Zheng told Xuan Qizi part of what happened in Heavenly Snail Cave. The focus was on the Blood Tide Forbidden Zone and the Demon Gate.
