Just as the handstove immortal tool was about to smash onto Gu Zheng's body, Gu Zheng suddenly punched out. As if he had unleashed a burst of explosive force, a loud collision sound was instantly heard.
The handstove immortal tool was sent flying by Gu Zheng's simple punch. However, the moment it was sent flying, countless charcoal flames with strange colors flew out from the handstove and smashed towards Gu Zheng like meteors.
A black light emerged from Gu Zheng's hand. Tang Mo was waved around by Gu Zheng into a light screen. All the charcoal flames that touched the black light screen were sent flying back towards Yu Yang and the other three.
"Go to hell!"
Curses rang out as Jiang Siyuan, Qin Huo, and Gu Qingjiang attacked at the same time.
In an instant, the heaven and earth energy mobilized by the demonic technique turned into a violent black wave, as if wanting to devour Gu Zheng.
Among Yu Yang and the other three, apart from him who had returned to Earth at the late stage of Jin Xian, the other three were only at the Void Return Realm. Among them, Jiang Siyuan was at the peak of the Void Return Realm, Qin Huo was at the late stage of the Void Return Realm, and Gu Qingjiang was only at the middle stage of the Void Return Realm. Gu Zheng naturally chose to ignore the waves formed by the demonic technique of these people! Moreover, the energy he absorbed from their attacks wasn't even enough to fill the gaps between Gu Zheng's teeth with the Five Elements Immortal Ball.
Therefore, in the face of the black waves, Gu Zheng was as dazzling as a ray of light. He dashed out of the waves in an elegant and unrestrained manner. Tang Mo in his hand pierced a black spiral light ray towards Gu Qingjiang.
The black light ray enlarged in Gu Qingjiang's eyes. Gu Qingjiang roared as if he was in a nightmare. However, his body couldn't move at all. He could only watch helplessly as the black light ray broke through his defense and destroyed his ball of immortal power.
"Oh my god!"
Qin Huo and Jiang Siyuan exclaimed at the same time when Gu Zheng dealt with Gu Qingjiang so easily. Their questioning gazes also landed on Yu Yang.
"Again!"
Yu Yang also understood that Gu Zheng's strength was a little beyond imagination, but he was unconvinced. He didn't think that a person who had only ascended to the Primordial World for a few years could have such great abilities!
Accompanied by Yu Yang's bellow, his body instantly doubled in size. His entire body was filled with shuttling white light rays, as if he had been sliced into pieces.
Although Yu Yang's appearance was strange, the devil art he used this time was quite powerful! The blood-red fog that surged into the white light instantly turned into a demon god holding a sledgehammer. The demon god smashed the sledgehammer toward Gu Zheng.
The Demonic God Statue's hammer had the power of Jin Xian's early stage! Qin Huo and Jiang Siyuan, who knew how powerful this attack was, immediately revealed elation in their eyes. It was as if they could already see Gu Zheng being smashed into a meat patty by this hammer.
There was only mockery in Gu Zheng's eyes. He didn't care about the Demon God Statue at all. Instead, he shot out a spiral black light towards Qin Huo, who was rejoicing in his misfortune.
"Scram!"
Qin Huo was alarmed. He waved the bone staff in his hand and countless skulls flew toward the black light ray.
However, the black light ray formed by the Devouring Black Hole's energy was very strange. With the power of Qin Huo's attack, it wasn't enough to have any effect on it.
At the same time, the Demonic God Statue's hammer smashed onto Gu Zheng's body.
There was no earth-shattering sound as expected. The Demonic God Statue's hammer seemed to have smashed into a vortex with a strong suction force. Since it was originally formed from fog, it was instantly swallowed by the vortex and disappeared without a trace.
"Sect Master!"
Jiang Siyuan was anxious. Up until now, Gu Zheng hadn't suffered any injuries at all. On their side, Gu Qingjiang and Qin Huo had already been crippled.
"Again!"
Yu Yang's unconvinced attitude made him seem like a demon. He once again launched a powerful attack at Gu Zheng.
The black fog that overflowed from the light ray on the surface of Yu Yang's body turned into four strange hounds. They pounced at Gu Zheng as fast as lightning and were about to tear him apart.
"Hehe."
Gu Zheng's eyes were full of contempt. When the four hounds came into contact with him, their situation was no different from the Demonic God Statue's.
"NO!"
Yu Yang's eyes widened as he roared. The Demonic God Statue's devouring caused him to have some thoughts. On the surface, the four hounds' explosive attack was equivalent to four Jin Xian early stage cultivators. However, these four hounds concealed a corrosive poison!
According to Yu Yang's estimation, if Gu Zheng dared to devour the four hounds, his Immortal Body wouldn't be able to withstand the corrosive poison even if his cultivation was at the late stage of Jin Xian. He would immediately rot from the inside out and bleed from his seven orifices.
However, none of this happened. Not only did Gu Zheng not feel the slightest bit of discomfort, he even licked his lips as if he had just devoured the four hounds. The taste was extremely good.
"I'll fight you to the death! Heavenly Demon Transformation!"
Yu Yang roared again, causing Jiang Siyuan to shudder. He no longer called out to Yu Yang and flew straight back the way he came.
Jiang Siyuan planned to run for his life. Gu Zheng wasn't human at all. How could he fight with someone who wasn't human? This was a battle that couldn't be continued. Running for his life was the way to go!
Jiang Siyuan didn't have any psychological burden when it came to running for his life. After all, he and Yu Yang had only known each other on Earth. Joining the Heavenly Demon Sect was just for what each of them needed.
Unfortunately, Jiang Siyuan didn't manage to run far before he fell from the sky with a scream.
Jiang Siyuan had been ambushed. The person who had ambushed him was Jian Ying, who had hidden herself long ago and suddenly attacked at the critical moment.
"You dare to ambush me?"
The injured Jiang Siyuan looked at Jian Ying in anger.
"I didn't dare before, but I dare now! Not only did I ambush you, but I also want to cripple you! "
Jian Ying was in high spirits. She attacked Jiang Siyuan with her claws that flashed with cold light.
Jian Ying was originally no match for Jiang Siyuan. However, with the high-grade immortal weapon that Gu Zheng had given her, everything was different.
On Gu Zheng's side, Yu Yang was indeed going to fight to the death with Gu Zheng. The light around his body instantly ignited, and his entire body turned into a huge black fireball.
The huge fireball smashed toward Gu Zheng with a power that caused the air to wrinkle. The power of this attack was close to that of Jin Xian's late stage.
Whoosh!
Gu Zheng pushed his palm forward. He didn't use any of the energy of heaven and earth. He only used some of the energy that he had absorbed from the battles after returning to Earth. He didn't dare to use the energy of heaven and earth to coordinate with it. He was afraid that this palm would kill Yu Yang, who was full of momentum.
The energy of different attributes turned into a gray palm and collided with the burning fireball, producing a loud sound that shook the sky.
The palm disappeared under this attack, and the huge fireball was pushed away. Yu Yang's groan could be heard from it.
"Heavenly Demon Second Transformation!"
Yu Yang roared. The black fireball instantly turned into a two-meter-long demonic dragon and rushed toward Gu Zheng.
Gu Zheng understood that the reason why Yu Yang was able to use the cultivation that was not allowed by the laws of Earth was because of one of his immortal weapons. The 'Heavenly Demon Change' that he spoke of was indeed a very powerful demonic technique. The attack power of this second transformation was already equivalent to that of Jin Xian's late stage.
"You think you're worthy of using fire?"
Gu Zheng laughed. Yu Yang's' Heavenly Demon Change 'was indeed a fire-attribute demonic technique.
A huge fire dragon appeared. This was Gu Zheng's fire dragon. It was fiery red and its body was more than four zhang long. Compared to Yu Yang's demonic dragon, other than the difference in body length, it was also the same in strength! After all, Gu Zheng's fire dragon, in addition to the fire-attribute energy that originally belonged to his Five Elements Immortal Ball, also had the fire-attribute energy that it had absorbed in the past few battles! The combination of the power of the two types of energy made the fire dragon's power far surpass that of an ordinary Jin Xian's late stage.
"Bang!"
Yu Yang's demonic dragon that was baring its fangs and brandishing its claws was sent flying by Gu Zheng's fire dragon's tail. As for the demonic fire that he spat out when he was sent flying, it wrapped around Gu Zheng's fire dragon. However, Gu Zheng's fire dragon's body shook and instantly extinguished it.
Gu Zheng's fire dragon teleported and once again appeared beside Yu Yang's demonic dragon. It swung its tail again and viciously slapped the demonic dragon's body.
"Ah …"
The demonic dragon let out Yu Yang's miserable cry. In the process of being sent flying, it turned into Yu Yang's appearance.
"Quick, use the method I taught you to restrain him!"
The Artifact Spirit's voice rang out in Gu Zheng's mind.
The method that the Artifact Spirit taught Gu Zheng was a special restriction. Gu Zheng did indeed use it on Yu Yang, who was already unable to fight back.
However, the restriction was still unable to prevent what was supposed to happen from happening. Just as the restriction was about to be completed, a certain connection in Yu Yang's body was removed.
The Artifact Spirit shrugged and smiled, "I've already beaten him to such a state, but I still can't stop the connection from being removed. There's nothing I can do about it."
"It's fine. The removal of the connection doesn't mean that there's no connection at all. Through this weak connection, I can still find him. It's just that killing him will take some time," Gu Zheng said.
When the Artifact Spirit first saw Yu Yang, it felt that there was something wrong with him. After investigating his body, it found out that Yu Yang cultivated a rare demonic technique, the Doppelganger Technique.
The Doppelganger Technique was a backup plan. Under normal circumstances, the doppelganger would stay in a safe place and cultivate on its own. Once the original body was in danger, as long as the connection with the doppelganger was cut off, the doppelganger would truly become another original body! It had all the memories of the original body, but its strength was a little lower.
The restriction that the Artifact Spirit gave Gu Zheng was to prevent the original body from cutting off the connection with the doppelganger. If the restriction was set up successfully, Gu Zheng only needed to find clues about the doppelganger's hiding place through the Soul Search. Then, he could go over and easily kill the doppelganger, who only knew how to cultivate.
However, the connection between the original body and the doppelganger had been cut off by Yu Yang. Even if Gu Zheng now knew where the doppelganger was hiding, by the time he went over, Yu Yang's doppelganger would have disappeared without a trace.
At this time, Jian Ying came over with Jiang Siyuan, who had been subdued. After Gu Zheng brought these people to Ziyan Island, he carried out a destructive Soul Search on them.
The screams of Yu Yang and the others did not erase the hatred that the islanders had for them.
After Gu Zheng finished Soul Searching on Yu Yang and the others, he immediately handed them over to the islanders to be dealt with.
"Although Ziyan Island has been temporarily taken over, you should stay here to prevent any accidents from happening!"
Gu Zheng gave a jade pendant to Jian Ying and told her to crush it immediately if anything were to happen.
After leaving Ziyan Island, Gu Zheng immediately flew to Foggy Wind Island, which was relatively close to the island.
Although Gu Zheng had found out the whereabouts of Yu Yang's doppelganger through the Soul Search, it was meaningless to look for it now.
Gu Zheng had found a clue about Jiaojiao during the Soul Search on Yu Yang.
When they attacked Emei Sect that day, the people of Heavenly Demonic Sect had broken into the mountain gate. Since the Chaos Tower was a top-grade Fairy Artifact and was controlled by Jiaojiao, it had been a headache for the people of Heavenly Demonic Sect.
However, just like the others, Yu Yang did not know why the Primal Chaos Pagoda did not attack in the end.
However, after the attack on Emei, the Grand Elder of Heavenly Demonic Sect, Yan Linglong, had temporarily left Heavenly Demonic Sect, saying that she had something to do and had not returned yet.
Yan Linglong was the second most important person in Heavenly Demonic Sect and was also a demonic cultivator at the late stage of Jin Xian. Yu Yang knew very little about Yan Linglong. She had said that she had something to do but had not returned yet, which made Yu Yang suspicious. At that time, when the people of Heavenly Demonic Sect were having a headache over the Chaos Tower, Yan Linglong seemed to have attacked the Chaos Tower.
The so-called clue was actually Yu Yang's guess, but it was the only clue about Jiaojiao at the moment.
According to the Weapon Spirit, although Yan Linglong's whereabouts were unknown, if Jiaojiao's spirit was really in her hands, she would go to Emei sooner or later! After all, the biggest use of Jiaojiao's spirit was to control the body of the Chaos Tower. If Yan Linglong wanted to get the body of the Chaos Tower, she would have to go to Emei.
Gu Zheng was flying towards Foggy Wind Island, and so was Yu Yang's clone.
Yu Yang's clone could be said to be Yu Yang himself. He was terrified and angry that he had been defeated by Gu Zheng.
Yu Yang still had lingering fears about the terrifying ability to absorb other people's attacks. His thousand years of cultivation had been destroyed today. This kind of encounter made Yu Yang furious!
Yu Yang's clone was originally hiding behind the cave abode at the bottom of the sea. The location of the cave abode happened to be relatively close to Gu Zheng's Morning Clouds Island, so Yu Yang decided to go to Morning Clouds Island first.
The internal defenses of the four islands that Gu Zheng owned were actually relatively weak. Before he ascended, Foggy Wind Island was guarded by the angry man, Ziyan Island was guarded by Meow Meow, and as for Emerald Peach Island and Morning Clouds Island, there were no cultivators on them. They only relied on the external island protection immortal array.
When Gu Zheng ascended, the cultivation world was still under the rule of the Orthodox Dao. Not to mention that the people of the Demonic Dao didn't know the specific location of these islands, even if they did, they wouldn't have dared to have any ideas about them.
However, as time passed and the era of the Demonic Dao came, the four islands that Gu Zheng owned became a fat piece of meat in the eyes of the Demonic Dao. In order to fight over these four islands, the Demonic Dao fought openly and covertly before finally deciding the ownership rights.
It was precisely because the islands were a fat piece of meat that everyone coveted that when Yu Yang arrived at Morning Clouds Island, the "reception" he faced was not friendly. After all, the Heavenly Demon Sect had also coveted Morning Clouds Island and had fought with several Demonic Dao cultivators on Morning Clouds Island.
After wasting his breath, Yu Yang still couldn't convince the Demonic Dao cultivators who occupied Morning Clouds Island that he wasn't scheming against them. Helpless, Yu Yang could only let the other party examine his body and speak the truth.
Yu Yang's cultivation level wasn't a secret in the Demonic Dao. After examining Yu Yang's body, the Demonic Dao cultivators on Morning Clouds Island discovered that the famous Yu Yang's cultivation level was only at the early-stage Void Return. Only then did they believe his words.
The Demonic Dao cultivators who occupied Morning Clouds Island were itinerant cultivators. They hadn't joined any sects and were considered relatively strong. Although there were only four of them, one of them was at the late-stage Jin Xian, and the other three were at the peak of the Void Return realm.
Xi Hao, the Demonic Dao cultivator whose real cultivation level was at the late-stage Jin Xian, frowned and said, "This Gu Zheng is truly a legend. He only entered the Primordial World for a few years, but after coming out, he crippled Yu Yang and the others!"
Hearing Xi Hao's words, Yu Yang's expression turned ugly. However, Fan Haining's next words made his face turn purple.
"Yu Yang, I already said that you would pay the price for your arrogance. Now, it's come true, right?" Fan Haining sneered.
Fan Haining, who had been injured by Yu Yang before, was incomparably pleased now. He looked at Yu Yang with a gloating expression.
"You …"
Yu Yang wanted to say something but hesitated. Hatred overflowed in his heart.
In the past, Yu Yang didn't take Fan Haining seriously. However, the current him had no choice but to be careful when facing Fan Haining. After all, if Fan Haining wanted to kill him now, it would be as easy as flipping his hand.
"Yu Yang, what's your purpose in telling us all this this time? Do you want to join us, or do you want us to help you take revenge? "Hou Hualin mocked.
"No matter what, we're all Demonic Dao cultivators! In the past, it was fine if we fought openly and secretly. However, now that Gu Zheng has returned, his strength will definitely reverse the situation. How can any eggs remain intact when the nest is overturned? Therefore, I hope that you can join the Demonic Dao Alliance! "Yu Yang said angrily.
The four Demonic Dao cultivators of Morning Clouds Island fell silent.
A moment later, Demonic Dao cultivator Ding Fei said, "What you said makes some sense. We can join the Demonic Dao Alliance, but our conditions remain the same!"
Mobilizing the four Demonic Dao cultivators of Dawn Island to join the Demonic Dao Alliance was something that had been done before. However, the conditions proposed by the four Demonic Dao cultivators of Dawn Island were unacceptable to Yu Yang and the others. Therefore, they didn't come to an agreement.
The Demonic Dao Alliance wasn't as simple as joining forces to deal with the Righteous Dao. Their alliance had great benefits.
The few people at the top of the Demonic Dao Alliance were much stronger than Yu Yang. Below these people, there were three so-called Elders of the Alliance. They were Yu Yang, the Sect Master of the Blood Transformation Hall, and the Sect Master of the Profound Underworld Sect.
The Elders represented the second-tier factions in the Demonic Dao Alliance. This faction was linked to the final distribution of benefits. It was also because of this that there could only be three second-tier factions!
Previously, when the four Demonic Dao cultivators of Dawn Island were mobilized to join the Alliance, the condition proposed by the four Demonic Dao cultivators of Dawn Island was to become the second-tier faction in the Alliance. How could the Heavenly Demon Sect, Blood Transformation Hall, and Profound Underworld Sect agree to this?
"Yu Yang, don't just stand there! Although you're not dead yet, the Heavenly Demon Sect can be said to be finished. It will definitely fall from the second-tier faction. Rather than that, you might as well take the initiative to give up your position to us. We'll consider it as a favor to you! "Xi Hao said.
Yu Yang fiercely clenched his teeth, "Fine, I'll give up my position to you!"
When he came to inform the four Demonic Dao cultivators of Dawn Island, Yu Yang already had the resolve to give up his position! Just as Xi Hao said, their Heavenly Demon Sect was basically finished. It was inevitable that they would fall from the second-tier faction.
"Since Gu Zheng has recovered Violet Yan Island, Dawn Island will probably be recovered soon! You should return to the island as soon as possible to prepare. I'll return to the Alliance now. We'll give Gu Zheng a head-on blow on Dawn Island! "
After Yu Yang left, the four Demonic Dao cultivators of Dawn Island looked at each other and smiled. Their eyes were full of ridicule.
