After killing three Mystic Level Undercurrent Sea Demons, Gu Zheng was seven more away from completing his mission.
Until noon of the second day, Gu Zheng did not waste any time on the road. The Concentric Jade Talisman showed that he was very close to Ying Fei.
Finally, Gu Zheng saw Ying Fei from afar. However, there were not two cultivators beside Ying Fei, but three.
Gu Zheng had seen two of the three cultivators in the mermaid's memories. One of them was wearing black clothes and looked like a skinny old man. The other one was wearing yellow clothes and looked like a middle-aged man with long hair. As for the third cultivator, she was a female cultivator and looked like a young girl.
Ying Fei also saw Gu Zheng. His originally lifeless eyes were instantly filled with disbelief.
The young girl beside Ying Fei frowned. She glanced at Ying Fei and then at Gu Zheng.
"Do you know the person in front?"
Ying Fei's group stopped. The middle-aged man stared at Ying Fei.
"I don't know him."
Ying Fei lied. He did not want to implicate Gu Zheng.
"He has already stopped. You still dare to say that you don't know him?"
The skinny old man sneered. Although he was talking to Ying Fei, his eyes were scrutinizing Gu Zheng. There was a trace of contempt in his eyes. There were three of them and only one Gu Zheng. Moreover, he looked very young. Even if he was in the late stage of Daluo Jinxian, the skinny old man would not put him in his eyes.
"The black-clothed old man and the yellow-clothed middle-aged man are both in the late stage of Daluo Jinxian. As for the female cultivator, she is in the early stage of Daluo Jinxian."
The Tool Spirit paused and told Gu Zheng about Ying Fei's physical condition.
The bigger Gu Zheng's Chaos Space expanded, the stronger the Tool Spirit's detection ability became. With the Tool Spirit's current detection ability, even if it was in the late stage of Daluo Jinxian, it would be hard for her to sense it.
Hearing the Artifact Spirit's words, a faint smile appeared on Gu Zheng's face. Although Ying Fei had been escorted away, he had not suffered any serious injuries. This was a blessing in disguise.
Ying Fei looked at Gu Zheng and smiled bitterly. From the smile on Gu Zheng's face, he could tell that Gu Zheng wanted to talk to him.
"Fellow Daoist Ying, how long has it been since we last met? How did you end up like this?"
Hearing Gu Zheng's words that were filled with emotion, Ying Fei's heart trembled. Their group didn't seem to have any problems on the surface, but why would Gu Zheng say that? Did he discover something?
"I don't understand what you mean, Fellow Daoist Bai. I'm fine now!"
Ying Fei deliberately put on a cold face. Regardless of whether Gu Zheng saw through it or not, he didn't want Gu Zheng to get involved in this mess.
"Your cultivation has been sealed, your Divine Sense has been sealed, and you still say you're fine?"
Looking at Gu Zheng who kept shaking his head, the three people beside Ying Fei all frowned. They didn't feel any Divine Sense probing them, but the other party was able to clearly see Ying Fei's condition. This caused them to have no choice but to withdraw some of their original contempt.
"Who are you?" The middle-aged man asked.
"I'm Ying Fei's friend."
Gu Zheng didn't even look at the middle-aged man. He just smiled at Ying Fei.
Ying Fei pursed his lips. He was so touched that he couldn't put it into words! In this situation, not all friends would dare to stand out and admit their identity. This not only required courage, but also all kinds of considerations.
"You want to save Ying Fei from our hands?"
The black-robed old man frowned and a cold smile appeared on his face.
Gu Zheng looked at the black-robed old man and said seriously, "I don't want to save Ying Fei from your hands. I want you to let him go. As for where you will go, that will be up to Ying Fei! If you don't know what's good for you, then I'll send you on your way. "
Everyone on the opposite side opened their eyes wide. The enemies' first reaction was that Gu Zheng was an idiot. But their second reaction was anger and caution.
"I can't remember how many years it has been since I heard such a joke!"
The black-robed old man looked at his companion and laughed, using this to cover up his previous loss of composure.
"I'm not joking with you. This isn't funny at all."
Gu Zheng's voice paused and his eyes narrowed, "I'll ask you one last time. Are you going to let Ying Fei go?"
"In your dreams!"
The black-robed old man roared.
"Ah …"
Along with the black-robed old man's voice, the middle-aged man beside him screamed. His body was cut in half at the waist.
The black-robed old man felt as though he had fallen into an ice cave. He didn't know when there was an enemy behind him. He only felt a cold killing intent when his companion was killed.
In an instant, the black-robed old man did two things. One of them was to activate his Immortal Domain.
The scene changed from the Undercurrent Sea to the sky. Everyone was standing on the clouds.
The one who killed the middle-aged man in one move was naturally Die Ling who Gu Zheng had released earlier.
Die Ling's strength wasn't bad. Moving silently was also her specialty. After obtaining the Darkmoon Dagger, her strength increased by a lot. The Darkmoon Dagger, which could even leave a mark on a top grade immortal item like the Sky Flipping Seal, was used by Die Ling to sneak attack a late stage Daluo Jinxian cultivator. If this person wasn't killed in one move, then he must have been prepared.
Gu Zheng had already guessed that the enemy had an Immortal Domain God Art or an Immortal Domain God Art. After all, Ying Fei had an Immortal Domain God Art. If the enemy didn't have this ability, it wouldn't have been easy for them to capture Ying Fei.
Gu Zheng had seen Ying Fei's Immortal Domain before. Its sturdiness couldn't be compared to the black-robed old man's. But if the black-robed old man's Immortal Domain was compared to Gu Zheng's, it was like a Grand Wizard.
"Brat, I want you dead!"
The black-robed old man roared. The cloud under everyone's feet flipped and turned into a huge Jiu Ying.
Jiu Ying let out a strange cry like a baby crying. Some of its nine heads sprayed water, some sprayed fire, some used the immortal domain's energy to suppress Gu Zheng and Die Ling, and some sprayed out smoke and poisonous rain. The scene was extremely shocking.
"You want me dead? You're still too inexperienced! "
Gu Zheng sneered and flew to dodge the Jiu Ying's attack.
The black-robed old man's face turned green. The Immortal Domain energy was suppressing Gu Zheng! But Gu Zheng was able to break free so easily. This meant that Gu Zheng's attainments in the Immortal Domain had reached a level that the black-robed old man could only look up to!
Although there were many different Immortal Domains, they were all essentially the same. They were all formed from the combination of Spirit Sense and the Dao of Space. Those who didn't have the Immortal Domain Mystique would be at a loss when they entered the Immortal Domain. But those who had the Immortal Domain Mystique would be able to see some things even if they entered a foreign Immortal Domain.
If the most common energy suppression in the Immortal Domain Mystique was a knot, then the higher one's attainments in the Immortal Domain, the easier it would be to untie the knot! Even if one's attainments were high enough, one could even tie a knot for the owner of the Immortal Domain through the rope of the owner of the Immortal Domain!
Gu Zheng made his move. He didn't attack the weak points of the Immortal Domain to break free, nor did he use his Immortal Domain Mystique to make the enemy's Immortal Domain explode. He used a method that he had never used before.
The earth yellow hammer was brought out by Gu Zheng. It grew in the wind from its initial finger length to a heavy hammer with a long handle! This was Uduo Lili's Gaia Hammer. As a hidden immortal tool, it had the ability to shatter an Immortal Domain.
"Destroy!"
Following Gu Zheng's roar, the Gaia Hammer was lifted up by someone and smashed into the void.
"Kacha …"
The Immortal Domain let out a sound under the impact of the Gaia Hammer. Spiderweb like cracks spread to every corner and the huge Immortal Domain turned into fragments.
"Pfff …"
The Immortal Domain was broken. The black clothed old man in the undercurrent coughed out a mouthful of blood.
Without needing Gu Zheng to say anything, Die Ling, who was behind the black clothed old man, stabbed the black clothed old man's dantian with her Dark Moon Dagger. She sent her demonic energy over and imprisoned his ball of immortal energy.
Gu Zheng frowned. The original number of people had decreased by one.
"Where's the girl?" Gu Zheng asked Ying Fei.
"She ran."
Ying Fei replied. He stared at Gu Zheng and sized him up. "Dao friend Bai, you, you guys …"
His heart was filled with shock. Ying Fei really didn't know what to say.
He had only separated from Gu Zheng for a little over a year. At that time, Gu Zheng was only at the early stage of Daluo Jinxian. Ying Fei had seen his Immortal Domain before. It wasn't as strong as the black clothed old man's Immortal Domain! Although Gu Zheng had other methods, as long as his Immortal Domain wasn't as strong as the other party's, he would be easily dealt with. This was why Ying Fei didn't want Gu Zheng to get involved in this mess. But in reality, Gu Zheng had just entered the black clothed old man's Immortal Domain for a while when the old man's Immortal Domain was broken!
"Senior Ying, are you so excited to see us that you can't speak properly?" Die Ling smiled at Ying Fei.
"Indeed, I'm really shocked by you master and servant!"
Ying Fei smiled bitterly. He looked at Die Ling and said, "Girl, it's only been a little over a year. Not only have you grown from a little thing to a slender and elegant woman, your strength has also left me flabbergasted!"
"Hehe."
Die Ling smiled embarrassedly at Ying Fei's praise.
"Ai, I thought you would be able to use the Waning Moon Curved Blade I gave you for a long time. Who would've thought that in just a little over a year, you would have an even stronger Immortal Tool! This dagger is really good. Just looking at it makes me shiver! "Ying Fei looked at the Darkmoon Dagger in Die Ling's hand and said.
"Look at you, such a big thing happened to you and an enemy escaped. Why don't you talk about it at all? Instead, you talk about something else?" Gu Zheng shook his head.
"Hahahaha …"
Ying Fei smiled and said, "No matter what, today is a happy day. Fellow Daoist Bai saved me from danger. I can't thank you enough!"
"What's there to thank me for? We're friends in life and death!" Gu Zheng smiled.
"Fellow Daoist Bai should've been to my cave residence?"
Even though Ying Fei wanted to speak calmly, his lips couldn't help but tremble. After all, his wives all died there.
"Yes."
Gu Zheng then recounted what happened in Ying Fei's cave mansion to him.
Ying Fei shook his head and smiled bitterly. Pain is pain but he is a Yao cultivator after all. Even if some emotions are revealed, it will only last for a moment.
"Fellow Daoist Bai, please remove the seal for me!"
The seal in Ying Fei's body can only be removed by others.
"Alright."
Gu Zheng nodded. Without much effort, he removed the seal on Ying Fei's body.
"Crack!"
Ying Fei clenched his teeth and sent his Yao energy into the black clothed old man's head. The originally unconscious black clothed old man immediately woke up.
"Ah …"
The black clothed old man screamed. His body trembled like a sieve. The Yao energy Ying Fei sent into his head made his head hurt like it was being cut by a knife.
The black clothed old man's Immortal Energy ball and Spiritual Sense were sealed by Die Ling's seal. At this moment, he had no ability to resist.
"Hahahaha …"
Facing Ying Fei's torture, the black clothed old man endured the pain and let out an inhuman laugh.
"Do you want to avenge your wife? Then kill me! "
The black clothed old man who wanted to die shouted. When Die Ling killed his companion, he knew that he was most likely going to die this time! After all, the casual Gu Zheng didn't even make a move and one of their men had already died. This proves that Gu Zheng wasn't someone who didn't know the immensity of heaven and earth. He was someone with true strength! Therefore, when the black clothed old man activated the Immortal Domain, he also sent a message to the female cultivator. He told her to run for her life immediately.
"Don't worry, you will definitely die. But not now!"
Ying Fei sneered. As the black clothed old man screamed in pain, Ying Fei began to soul search the black clothed old man.
After the destructive soul search, the black clothed old man seemed to have turned dumb.
"Senior Ying, you made him like this. How are you going to avenge him?" Die Ling couldn't help but ask.
"Avenge him? His death can be considered as revenge! However, I don't want to kill him here. I want to bring him back to my cave residence and use his blood as an offering to my wives. "Ying Fei said.
"That's too easy on him."
Die Ling gritted her teeth. If someone dared to do such a thing to Gu Zheng, she didn't know what she would do to that person.
"Dao friend Ying, what's going on?" Gu Zheng asked curiously.
"It's like this …"
Ying Fei told Gu Zheng what happened.
Ying Fei's good friend was killed by the black clothed old man and the middle aged man. The two of them searched his soul and found out the location of Ying Fei's cave residence. They also found out one of Ying Fei's secrets.
Over a hundred years ago, Ying Fei discovered a cave in the depths of the Undercurrent Sea. He sensed a strange calling from the cave. Unfortunately, there were many Undercurrent Sea Monsters in the cave, so Ying Fei couldn't explore the cave.
Regarding the mysterious calling from the cave, Ying Fei felt that it was very mysterious. The feeling that reached his heart made him feel that it might be the legendary opportunity to become a sage! He told this to his good friend and agreed to wait until their cultivation was equivalent to Daluo Jinxian late stage before they went to explore the cave together.
After searching Ying Fei's good friend's soul, the black clothed old man and the middle aged man also felt that the calling from the cave was the opportunity to become a sage! Therefore, they went to find Ying Fei and wanted to find out the location of the cave from him.
Ying Fei was a Sea Demon cultivator. Sea Demon cultivators usually had some strange abilities that could make soul searching ineffective. This was one of Ying Fei's abilities.
Since they couldn't find out the location of the cave through soul searching, the black clothed old man and the middle aged man could only let Ying Fei lead the way.
As for the female cultivator, she was the granddaughter of the black clothed old man's master. She seemed to have some special ability. After meeting up with the black clothed old man and the others in Undercurrent Sea, they went to the cave where Ying Fei sensed the calling.
Unfortunately, when they arrived outside the cave again, not only did Ying Fei not sense the calling, the others also couldn't sense it.
The black clothed old man and the others didn't give up. They also went deep into the cave to see if there was anything special inside. But the result was that they didn't find anything special. Instead, they encountered something bad! They bumped into a Heaven Rank Undercurrent Sea Fiend. If they weren't prepared, they would have all died there.
