After listening to the Immortal Official, Gu Zheng nodded his head and said, "I understand."
"The mission difficulty is divided into three stars. One star means you can stay in the Heavenly Realm for a month. Two stars means you can stay in the Heavenly Realm for three months. Three stars means you can stay in the Heavenly Realm for a year. Which star mission do you want to accept?" The Immortal Official asked again.
"Is there a choice of mission content?" Gu Zheng asked.
"No, there is only one type of mission for each three-star mission." The Immortal Official said.
"Then I'll accept a three-star mission!"
Gu Zheng handed ten blue Immortal Coins to the Immortal Official, but the Immortal Official did not take them.
"Boy, it seems that you have such a cultivation at such a young age. This is really rare! However, I want to remind you that a three-star mission is so difficult that even a late Daluo Jinxian might die. So you should be careful! "The Immortal Official said seriously.
"Don't worry, Immortal Official. If I feel that I can't handle it, I'll just give up this mission." Gu Zheng said.
It was not that he could not give up the mission. Giving up the mission would only cost him ten blue Immortal Coins.
The Immortal Official shook his head and smiled. He did not say anything else and took the blue Immortal Coins from Gu Zheng. Then, he handed a simple jade slip to Gu Zheng.
After leaving the Transfer Pavilion, Gu Zheng used his Divine Thought to enter the jade slip. He saw that the mission in the jade slip was for him to bring back ten Demonic Cores of a Mystic Level Undercurrent Sea Monster within a month.
The Undercurrent Sea Monster was a Demonic Beast unique to the Undercurrent Sea. The Undercurrent Sea was one of the few famous dangerous places in the Untainted Land.
There were undercurrents in the Undercurrent Sea, which was how it got its name. However, this undercurrent was not an ordinary undercurrent. If one's cultivation was not at the late Jin Xian stage, the undercurrent in the Undercurrent Sea could easily tear one into pieces!
Due to the special environment, the strength of the Undercurrent Sea Monsters living in the Undercurrent Sea could be seen at a glance. It could be said that if one's cultivation was not at the early Daluo Jinxian stage, it was impossible to kill a Yellow-level Undercurrent Sea Monster with one blow!
The Undercurrent Sea Monsters were divided into four levels: Heaven, Earth, Mystic, and Yellow. If a Yellow-level Undercurrent Sea Monster was at the early Daluo Jinxian stage, then a Yellow-level Undercurrent Sea Monster was at the middle stage Daluo Jinxian stage stage. and Earth-level Undercurrent was at the late Daluo Jinxian stage....................
Gu Zheng's mission required ten Demon Cores of the Mysterious Undercurrent Sea Demon. If his true cultivation was only at the Early-stage of Perfected Golden Immortal, then this mission could be completely abandoned. This was also the reason why the Immortal Official reminded him to be cautious.
"How do you feel?" The artifact spirit asked Gu Zheng.
"I've been to the Barren Desert in the past. Unfortunately, my cultivation was too low and I was with the Yan brothers. I didn't even see one-tenth of the real Barren Desert. To be honest, I'm very excited to go to the Undercurrent Sea this time. I also want to see how dangerous this so-called dangerous place is! "Gu Zheng said excitedly.
The Tool Spirit nodded: "With your strength, you can go to most places in the Undercurrent Sea. As long as you don't run into a Heaven Undercurrent Sea Monster, you won't be in any danger."
"The mission time is one month. I think I can go back and forth in 20 days. There are still 10 days left. I can go visit an old friend." Gu Zheng said.
"Are you talking about Ying Fei?" The Tool Spirit asked.
"Yes."
Gu Zheng smiled. The image of Ying Fei in white fluttering clothes appeared in his mind.
He met Ying Fei in the Skull Palace. When they parted, Gu Zheng went to the Floating Mountain. Ying Fei went back to his cave to recuperate. He also told Gu Zheng the location of his cave.
"When we parted, Ying Fei told me to visit him when I had time. I thought I wouldn't have such an opportunity. But who would have thought that in less than two years, I would want to visit him."
"In less than two years, you have advanced from the Early-stage of Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal to the Middle-stage of Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal. However, I'm afraid that Ying Fei hasn't even recovered from the injuries he suffered in the Skull Palace!"
"At that time, I didn't have a deeper Dao Eye, nor did I have a Dao Heart. Although the effect of the food therapy I made for Ying Fei was very good, it couldn't be compared to what I can do now. After seeing Ying Fei this time, I'm going to make another food therapy for him. This food therapy will definitely help him recover in a year! "Gu Zheng said confidently.
The Undercurrent Sea was at the border of the Dong Sheng Divine Prefecture. If one wanted to go to the Undercurrent Sea, they had to go through the Immortal Transfer Formation in the Tianmen County to the Undercurrent County.
After teleporting from the Tianmen County to the Undercurrent County, Gu Zheng left the county city and flew toward the Undercurrent Sea.
Three days later.
In the same sky, there were two completely different scenes.
On one side, the sky was clear. On the other side, there were dark clouds. On the other side, there were ripples on the sea. On the other side, the sea was shrouded in a thick fog. From time to time, there were flashes of lightning.
"If the mission didn't have a time limit, I would like to see the Death Fog in the Undercurrent Sea." Looking at the fog in front of him, Gu Zheng muttered to himself.
"Unless you want to find a breakthrough in the Death Fog, I don't recommend you to go there just because you're curious! Although your cultivation is at the Daluo Jinxian Middle Stage, very few of the Daluo Jinxian Middle Stage who have ventured into the Death Fog have come out alive. "The Device Spirit said seriously.
The Death Fog contained a very strong power of law. Even a Sage-to-be would lose his sense of direction if he entered it. Once he entered a certain distance, it would be very difficult to come out again. Moreover, the deeper he went, the more powerful the lightning would be. It was said that some lightning was even as powerful as the Nine Heavenly Tribulations.
"I'm just saying. Look at how worried you are!" Gu Zheng said with a smile.
"I'm not afraid that you don't know the immensity of heaven and earth and will attract some danger!" The Device Spirit stuck out his tongue.
"Although I'm at the Daluo Jinxian Middle Stage, I'm not so arrogant as to think that there's nothing in the world that can threaten me."
Gu Zheng shrugged his shoulders with a smile and plunged into the sea.
The Five Elements Immortal Ball in his body vibrated. After using the Water Control Art, Gu Zheng still moved in the water as if he was flying in the air.
When he really entered the Undercurrent Sea, the color of the sea water was obviously different from before. It actually looked clearer! Moreover, the more amazing thing was that the Undercurrent Sea's surface was obviously covered by the Death Fog, but the light in the sea was ridiculously good. It was as if nine suns were shining. Even if he went deep into the sea, his vision was not affected.
After flying for a short distance, Gu Zheng saw the difference in the Undercurrent Sea. Moving whirlpools began to appear in the sea water.
The whirlpools basically appeared abruptly and disappeared abruptly. They didn't look big and didn't last for long. However, even though these whirlpools looked like they couldn't even contain a single person, when they really came into contact with them, the tearing force they produced was truly frightening!
After half an incense stick's time.
"I've already activated the Seventh Sense, and my five senses are already very, very strong. Even I can't sense every whirlpool in advance, let alone ordinary cultivators."
Hearing Gu Zheng's sigh about the strangeness of the whirlpools, the Tool Spirit smiled slightly and said, "Fortunately, these whirlpools aren't very strong for you. If you're just an ordinary Jin Xian Late Stage cultivator, you'll definitely fall in the distance you've experienced."
The Tool Spirit wasn't exaggerating at all. Gu Zheng could sense most of the whirlpools in advance, so naturally, he could avoid them. But even so, during the time he entered the Undercurrent Sea, he was still swept by the whirlpools three times! Fortunately, just as the weapon spirit had said, his immortal body was relatively strong. If it were an ordinary cultivator in the late stage of Golden Immortal, he would have been dead for sure if he had been hit by all five attacks.
The Undercurrent Sea's environment was strange, but it wasn't without life. There were also things like fish, prawns, and crabs. However, the bodies of these creatures were exceptionally flexible, and each of them had a strange appearance.
Although he had been flying for half an incense stick's time, the Undercurrent Sea was very big, and this was only the edge of the Undercurrent Sea. If he really wanted to see the Undercurrent Sea Demons, he'd have to fly for at least two days.
Perhaps there were Undercurrent Sea Demons at the edge in the past, but whether it was the need of the Heaven Realm or the value of the Undercurrent Sea Demons, it was almost impossible to see them at the edge of the Undercurrent Sea.
Ying Fei's cave residence was also at the edge of the Undercurrent Sea. Gu Zheng needed to fly for about a day and a half.
After a day and a half, Gu Zheng, who was originally flying in the middle of the Undercurrent Sea, landed at the bottom of the Undercurrent Sea.
There were also mountains at the bottom of the Undercurrent Sea, and there were many unique plants growing on them.
With the specific location given by Ying Fei, Gu Zheng landed at the bottom of the sea, which was very close to Ying Fei's cave residence.
"Eh?"
Gu Zheng frowned. He saw the immortal array outside Ying Fei's cave residence, but the immortal array was open.
No matter what the situation was, as the immortal array outside the cave residence, it shouldn't be open. This made Gu Zheng have an ominous premonition.
Stepping into the immortal array, Gu Zheng saw the array stone used to set up the immortal array. He couldn't help but frown even more! The immortal array was broken by someone. This could be seen from the damage to the array stone.
The immortal array outside the cave residence was broken by someone, but it wasn't repaired in time. This could only mean that something big had happened to Ying Fei!
Although the immortal array was broken, it hadn't lost all its functions. At least its function of hiding the cave residence was still there. Through the open immortal array, Gu Zheng smoothly flew through the fake scenery and arrived outside Ying Fei's real cave residence.
Ying Fei's cave residence was built in the mountain range at the bottom of the sea. The outside of the cave residence was originally very carefully decorated. For example, there were all kinds of fake mountains and plants. However, all these things were now unrecognizable from the aftermath of the battle. It was a dilapidated scene.
After passing through the broken door of the cave residence, Gu Zheng entered Ying Fei's cave residence.
Compared to Gu Zheng's simple and crude cave residence, Ying Fei's cave residence was as big as a palace. Although the inside was also dilapidated, from the decorations, one could see how luxurious it was when it was in good condition.
Standing in Ying Fei's cave residence, which was almost in ruins, Gu Zheng released his spiritual will to search.
Originally, he didn't think that he would find anything special. However, Gu Zheng found a secret room in a hidden place.
The restriction on the secret room came from the Skull Palace. Gu Zheng didn't spend much effort to break it.
The moment the door of the secret room slowly opened, a silver white shadow shot out from inside.
Gu Zheng pressed his hand down. The omnipresent energy of heaven and earth caused the seawater to become dense. The shadow, which wanted to escape, bounced back as if it had hit a wall.
The white shadow was a fish. It looked a little like a hairtail. However, it was very strange.
"Show yourself. I have something to ask you!"
Gu Zheng transmitted his spiritual will to the strange fish. The weapon spirit had already told him that this strange fish was a demonic cultivator equivalent to the Void Return Stage.
The strange fish's body trembled. However, it didn't do as Gu Zheng said.
"Don't worry. I am Ying Fei's friend. I am not his enemy."
Upon hearing Gu Zheng's words, the strange fish, which had been trembling with its head lowered, raised its head to look at Gu Zheng. The fear in its eyes instantly turned into excitement.
After a bubble appeared around the strange fish, the strange fish turned into a human. It looked like a young woman, and it was very beautiful.
"You, you are Atractylodes Atractylodes?"
The fish woman looked at Gu Zheng excitedly and said Gu Zheng's alias.
"You heard Ying Fei mention me?" Gu Zheng asked.
"Waa …"
Seeing Gu Zheng admit that he was Bai Zhu, the fish woman burst into tears.
Although the fish woman lost her composure and cried, she was a demonic cultivator after all. She quickly stopped crying. She directly asked Gu Zheng to search her soul so that Gu Zheng would know what happened here.
As for what happened in the Skull Palace, Ying Fei naturally told his wives and concubines. Of course, he also mentioned Gu Zheng. Therefore, the fish woman, who was Ying Fei's fourth concubine, guessed his identity when she saw Gu Zheng.
Half a month ago, two Daluo Jinxian cultivators attacked the immortal cave. They killed Ying Fei's family and took Ying Fei away. Perhaps they had already achieved their goal by taking Ying Fei away. Therefore, they didn't carefully search the immortal cave. Therefore, the fish woman escaped.
Why did the two Daluo Jinxian want to capture Ying Fei? Were they acquainted with Ying Fei before? The fish woman didn't know anything about these things! She could only give Gu Zheng a Heart Connecting Jade Talisman and beg Gu Zheng to save her husband.
The Heart Connecting Jade Talisman didn't break. It meant that Ying Fei was still alive. The constantly flashing red dot on it indicated his current location. He was in the depths of the Undercurrent Sea!
Gu Zheng and Ying Fei could be considered as life and death friends. Since he encountered this matter, he definitely wouldn't stand by and watch.
After telling the fish woman to find a safe place to stay, Gu Zheng immediately left Ying Fei's ruined immortal cave.
"Ying Fei's location is in the depths of the Undercurrent Sea. Do you think he got rid of those two cultivators and temporarily hid in the depths of the Undercurrent Sea?" The tool spirit asked.
"It shouldn't be! From the fish woman's memory, it can be seen that the two cultivators are late Daluo Jinxian cultivators. Although Ying Fei is a demonic cultivator and has a lot of strange means, it should be impossible for him to escape from the hands of these two cultivators! "Gu Zheng frowned.
