Meow Meow and the angry man made a lot of money in the Quasi-Saint Relics, but they were also envied by a late stage Daluo Jinxian cultivator, who hunted them down.
Later, Meow Meow and the angry man successfully got rid of the enemy who was chasing them. They had been in seclusion for several months in that special spatial immortal tool. When their cultivation base had all risen to the early stage of Demon King, Meow Meow and the angry man came out of seclusion to find the Great Golden Immortal who was chasing them and killed him together.
After getting rid of their enemies, Meow Meow and the angry man went to Mount Shu to look for Gu Zheng. However, Gu Zheng was not there at that time, as he had already returned to Earth to complete the task of Great Success in Cooking.
Failing to find Gu Zheng, Meow Meow and the angry man traveled together in the Untainted Land for a period of time. Then, they went their separate ways and agreed on a time to meet again.
Eight months ago, Meow Meow came to the Turbulent Flow Sea to look for the angry man according to their agreement. However, because of enmity with someone on the way, Meow Meow was chased into the Death Mist and by chance, climbed up the Star Ruins Mountain.
Similar to Gu Zheng's experience, Meow Meow passed the test of two spirit palaces on the Star Ruins Mountain, then the test of the Doctrine Propagation Palace, and finally entered the cave.
As a divine beast, Meow Meow had her own unique characteristics. She felt that it was not easy to become the master of the Star Ruins Mountain, and after entering the cave, she found that there was a strange fluctuation that wanted to change her.
The flow of time in the cave was different from that in the Untainted Land. Fifty days of cultivation here was only one day in the Untainted Land. Therefore, Meow Meow decided to cultivate here temporarily and go back when her cultivation was high enough to avoid any mishaps.
In the beginning, Meow Meow had indeed been cultivating in the cave. However, before Gu Zheng and the others came, another person had come to the cave. That person had also shouldered the mission of killing Meow Meow. However, he was not strong enough and was killed by Meow Meow instead.
After searching that person's soul, Meow Meow knew that her failure to return had angered the consciousness of the Star Ruins Mountain. Therefore, Meow Meow did not dare to stay in the cave any longer and left to find a place in the outside world to continue cultivating.
There were many dangers in the outside world, but as long as one did not wander around and had a spatial fairy device for hiding, it was relatively safe. In the following time, Meow Meow concentrated on cultivating until she sensed a familiar fluctuation and ended her seclusion state.
Meow Meow sensed the familiar fluctuation that she had sensed..... on that day when Gu and the others came to the cave, it was the same time..
According to the time in the Wilderness, Meow Meow had been in this world for almost eight months. Of the time of the world of the Untainted Land Ruins World. of the world's Time..
. of the space space fairy Space Ow Meow... the space space space of the space space was..... of Meow Meow Meow... was space space space space space space space, five of of of of the of the Space,, of of of of of the of of of of the, the of of of of of of the space space space space time time, time.. In fact, Meow Meow's special space fairy device was not the only one with this characteristic, but all space-time fairy devices had this characteristic, including Gu Zheng's statue space. However, when Gu Zheng was cultivating in the cave, he still had to be on guard against Goddess Bi Bo, so he did not use the statue space.
It was because of the existence of the space-time fairy device that Meow Meow had cultivated for almost 164 years in the Untainted Land for eight months.
Being the descendant of a divine beast and having sufficient cultivation resources, Meow Meow's cultivation had reached the peak of the Demon King realm from the early Demon King realm when she entered this world. Feeling that her cultivation was almost there, and just happened to sense the fluctuation of the space crack, Meow Meow came out of seclusion and went straight to the cave.
Unfortunately, the place where Meow Meow was cultivating in seclusion was far from the cave. By the time she arrived at the cave, Gu Zheng had already left.
The space crack closed soon after Gu Zheng and the others entered the cave. After Meow Meow returned to the cave, she did not see any space crack that could be passed through, but she met Goddess Bi Bo, who had nowhere to vent her anger.
Being the descendant of a divine beast, Meow Meow was naturally very extraordinary, but Goddess Bi Bo was a Sage-to-be. If she had not met Gu Zheng, who could not be defeated by common sense, she was actually very powerful among the cultivators at the early stage of Sage-to-be. Her comprehensive strength was above that of Golden-winged Giant Condor and Blood Evil Venerable.
Meow Meow suffered a big loss in the first fight with Goddess Bi Bo, but it was also not easy for Goddess Bi Bo to kill Meow Meow. After escaping, Meow Meow found a place outside the cave to recuperate. After recovering, she went to find trouble with Goddess Bi Bo.
During the time when Gu Zheng left the cave, Meow Meow fought with Goddess Bi Bo seven times and was injured seven times. In the last fight, Meow Meow was seriously injured and had been recuperating until today. When she entered the cave again to fight with Goddess Bi Bo, the space crack opened again!
Originally, Meow Meow wanted to return to the Star Ruins Mountain, but after fighting with Goddess Bi Bo several times, she had deeply realized that although her strength was at the peak of the Demon King, she was still far from being able to return to the Star Ruins Mountain! Therefore, she, who did not want to return to the Star Ruins Mountain, entangled with Goddess Bi Bo, who wanted to return to the Star Ruins Mountain. Thus, Gu Zheng heard her voice and fought with her.
After listening to Meow Meow's story, Gu Zheng asked, "Meow Meow, are you sure you can advance to the Demon Emperor level?"
"Sir, I need to wait for an opportunity."
Meow Meow paused and took Die Ling's hand, saying, "Not all divine beasts can be as extraordinary as Sister Die Ling. The Demon Emperor Realm will be a big hurdle for me!"
When Gu Zheng was chasing after Goddess Bi Bo, Meow Meow and Die Ling had interacted. They had arranged in order of seniority and naturally asked each other about their respective realms.
"It's okay. When I go to the Heaven Realm to see Master, I'll ask him if he has any ideas!"
Gu Zheng stroked Meow Meow's hair and said again, "If you want to become the true master of the Star Ruins Mountain, you can't do without the cultivation of a Demi-Sage. You've offended the consciousness of the Star Ruins Mountain. If you return to the Star Ruins Mountain with me this time, it won't be good for either of us. This is a rare place for cultivation. You can cultivate well here and wait for Sir to become the true master of the Star Ruins Mountain. Then, I'll take you back, okay? "
"I'll listen to Sir."
Meow Meow smiled sweetly, but her eyes were uncontrollably red, "I've just met Sir and we're going to be separated again!"
"Separation is also for the sake of meeting again!"
Gu Zheng hugged Meow Meow and patted her back, "Stay here and wait for me to take you back!"
Without saying anything more, Gu Zheng put the butterfly spirit into the primitive space and then returned to the main hall of the Star Ruins Mountain through the space crack.
"Lucky one, welcome back!"
As soon as he saw Gu Zheng appear, the Spirit Palace Lord, who had been waiting by the side, smiled.
"Did you kill any divine beasts and get the keepsake?" the Spirit Palace Lord asked.
"No, I didn't encounter any divine beasts in that cave," Gu Zheng said.
"Wait a little longer. After the passage closes, if the other lucky one hasn't returned, then you'll be the last person in this test," the Spirit Palace Lord said.
Gu Zheng didn't say that Goddess Bi Bo was dead. Anyway, even if he said that, the Spirit Palace Lord would definitely wait until the crack closed.
"What about my other two companions?"
15 days in the world outside the circle was only one day in the Star Ruins Mountain. Gu Zheng and Xiong San had only parted ways yesterday.
"Your female companion has died in the test and has become a Palace Lord of the Spirit Palace!" the Spirit Palace Lord said.
"Sigh!"
Although Gu Zheng had a premonition that something was going to happen to Fairy Fei Yu, he didn't know whether she would die or not. Now that he heard the news, he could only sigh.
"Your senior brother passed the test successfully, but he made the consciousness of the Star Ruins Mountain unhappy, so he must be punished," the Spirit Palace Lord said again.
"What kind of punishment?" Gu Zheng asked.
"He will serve on the Star Ruins Mountain for ten years!"
As soon as the Spirit Palace Lord finished speaking, the space crack closed. He said again, "Well, since the other lucky one hasn't returned, you can rest for half a day. I'll take you to see the consciousness of the Star Ruins Mountain in the evening!"
"Why don't we go see it now? I don't want to rest! "
"The consciousness of the Star Ruins Mountain is still sleeping and will wake up tomorrow."
Through beating around the bush, Gu Zheng got the answer he wanted.
"I want to see my senior brother."
"He's serving, so it's not convenient for him to see anyone."
The Spirit Palace Lord paused and then said, "If you really want to see him, you can tell the consciousness of the Star Ruins Mountain when you see it!"
Gu Zheng's heart skipped a beat, but he didn't say anything else.
Then, the Spirit Palace Lord took Gu Zheng back to his residence and left.
"I feel that something is wrong!" the Device Spirit's voice sounded.
"Indeed! The Spirit Palace Lord said that my senior brother is serving, but he won't let me see him. It makes me feel that my senior brother isn't just serving, "Gu Zheng said.
"Then what are you going to do?"
In the face of the Device Spirit's question, Gu Zheng was silent for a moment, then said, "I don't know my senior brother's situation, and this makes me very worried. It seems that I have to 'tour' the Star Ruins Mountain and do both things at the same time!"
According to the rules, Gu Zheng's range of activity was only on the mountain where he lived. However, when he said tour, he meant to go to other places, which was not allowed by the rules.
"The two things you want to do, one is to prepare for your return to the Star Ruins Mountain in the future, and the other is to find Xiong San, right?" the Device Spirit asked.
"That's right!" Gu Zheng said.
"The consciousness of the Star Ruins Mountain is sleeping, and this is indeed a good opportunity for you to prepare for your return to the Star Ruins Mountain in the future. However, I don't recommend you to find Xiong San. This matter is different from the first matter, because once the consciousness of the Star Ruins Mountain wakes up, it should be able to know that you have gone to find Xiong San! You are going against the rules set by it. In an environment where the enemy is strong and we are weak, this is not a wise decision! "the Device Spirit said worriedly.
"I have to know my senior brother's situation."
Gu Zheng paused for a moment, then continued, "If I don't know my senior brother's situation, everything will have to go according to the original plan. However, the consciousness of the Star Ruins Mountain won't let me see my senior brother, which makes me feel that things are not as simple as I initially thought. After all, after Le Xian completed the final test, although the consciousness of the Star Ruins Mountain did not immediately see her, she was relatively free. When she asked to tour the Star Ruins Mountain, the consciousness of the Star Ruins Mountain did not refuse! Unlike now, where even when I return to my residence, the Palace Master of the Spirit Palace follows me. It's like watching over a prisoner! "
"Well, I didn't think too much about it."
The Device Spirit frowned, then said, "Since you were escorted back to your residence by the Palace Master of the Spirit Palace, I'm afraid he is also secretly watching you, right?"
"That's not necessarily true. After all, the consciousness of the Star Ruins Mountain is not human. It doesn't have such complicated thoughts."
Although this was what he said, for safety reasons, Gu Zheng did not immediately take action after leaving the palace. He slowly walked around the mountain.
His understanding of the Way of Space allowed Gu Zheng to easily discover things hidden in the void. However, after walking around the mountain, he did not find any surveillance by the Palace Master of the Spirit Palace.
Frowning, Gu Zheng used the spatial magic, Meteor Chasing Moon, and instantly arrived at the bottom of a long staircase. This was the place where he had first landed on the Star Ruins Mountain.
"I have to say, this trip to the outside world was really worth it!" Gu Zheng thought to himself.
He appeared dozens of miles away in an instant. Whether it was the speed of the Phoenix Eagle's wings or the strangeness of teleportation, it was impossible to be as fast as Meteor Chasing Moon.
Le Xian told Gu Zheng that the reason why it was impossible to climb the Star Ruins Mountain again after leaving it was because those who had come to the Star Ruins Mountain had left a special mark on it. It was precisely because of the existence of this special mark that the Star Ruins Mountain could easily sense those who had come to the Star Ruins Mountain! Therefore, as long as someone who had been to the Astral Ruins Mountain appeared in the Death Mist, the Astral Ruins Mountain would sense it. It would use its own methods to avoid the people who had been to the Astral Ruins Mountain, causing the people who had been to the Astral Ruins Mountain to be unable to sense its presence.
The mark left on the Star Ruins Mountain by those who had come to the Star Ruins Mountain was at the place where they had first landed. This was also the reason why Gu Zheng had appeared here.
At Gu Zheng's level of cultivation, it was not difficult for him to find the mark he had left behind. To put it bluntly, the mark was a Qi that had been sealed by the Star Ruins Mountain and would not dissipate.
It was not difficult to destroy the mark that sealed the Qi. However, the difficult part was that not only did he have to destroy it, but he also had to avoid being discovered by the consciousness of the Star Ruins Mountain.
According to the method taught by Le Xian, Gu Zheng used the Way of the Five Elements and set up a new seal around the seal of the Star Ruins Mountain. With the seal of the Way of the Five Elements, the original seal would slowly lose its effectiveness with the passage of time. Le Xian believed that this kind of loss of effectiveness would be able to avoid the detection of the Star Ruins Mountain's consciousness.
After completing the first task, Gu Zheng once again used the Meteor Moon Overtaking Technique and instantly appeared on top of a mountain.
Although the Star Ruins Mountain's consciousness did not allow Gu Zheng to see Xiong San, Gu Zheng and Xiong San had a positioning jade talisman. Therefore, he knew where Xiong San was.
There was only one palace on the mountain. The doors of the palace were wide open, and Xiong San was in this palace.
Gu Zheng saw Xiong San sitting cross-legged in the middle of the palace as if he had fallen asleep. His body was connected to twelve rays of light that led to an unknown place. His immortal power was flowing away along with the rays of light. His hair, which had been black the day before, was now snow-white.
"Bastard!"
Gu Zheng cursed in his heart. Although he did not know where Xiong San's immortal power was being used, he knew that such an extraction of immortal power would cause a person's cultivation level to drop.
Resisting the urge to cut off those rays of light, Gu Zheng, who felt terrible in his heart, used his Spiritual Force to call out to Xiong San. He called out three times in a row before Xiong San opened his eyes.
"Little Junior Brother!"
Xiong San's voice transmission sounded like he was about to cry.
Gu Zheng clenched his fists and asked with a voice transmission, "Senior Brother, what happened while I was gone?"
Xiong San began to explain in response to Gu Zheng's inquiry.
Through Xiong San's explanation, Gu Zheng was able to find out what had happened after he had left.
Xiong San, Fairy Fei Yu, and the other two immortal cultivators' so-called test was also to go to a world outside the circle!
In the dangerous world outside the circle, Xiong San and the others needed to help the consciousness of the Star Ruins Mountain retrieve something. During this process, the other two immortal cultivators died one after another. Fairy Fei Yu was also seriously injured in order to save Xiong San. Fortunately, they completed their mission and returned to the Star Ruins Mountain through the spatial rift.
After returning to the Star Ruins Mountain, something that made Xiong San's heart wrench immediately happened. Fairy Fei Yu's body floated up uncontrollably. Xiong San could feel the power of the Star Ruins Mountain acting on her body! Xiong San resisted, but there were many star spirits that made it impossible for him to resist. He could only watch as Fairy Fei Yu died in front of him and the ball of immortal power in her body flew into the distance.
When some people were around, one might feel nothing, but when they were no longer around, one would realize how precious they were.
Xiong San was filled with regret and hatred. He regretted deliberately keeping a distance from Fairy Fei Yu. He hated that he did not say what he should have said and done what he should have done. His hair also turned white overnight in the torment of regret and hatred.
Xiong San was a very emotional person. As he narrated the story to Gu Zheng, he couldn't stop his tears from flowing.
Gu Zheng could feel the pain in Xiong San's heart. He could also feel his regret, as well as his hatred for the consciousness of the Star Ruins Mountain.
The anger in Gu Zheng's heart soared. This kind of anger made him want to vent through slaughter. However, he could not do that. He had to stay awake!
"My senior brother's immortal power was extracted, and Fairy Fei Yu died. However, the ball of immortal power flew into the distance strangely. Do you know what this means?" Gu Zheng asked the artifact spirit.
"Under normal circumstances, once an immortal cultivator dies, the ball of immortal power will definitely collapse. Fairy Fei Yu's ball of immortal power flew away, and your senior brother's immortal power was extracted. In my opinion, this is the consciousness of the Star Ruins Mountain, which is used to protect the Star Ruins Mountain! We already know that the consciousness of the Star Ruins Mountain is almost at the end of its life. A consciousness that is almost at the end of its life may have lost control of the Star Ruins Mountain. This is the only speculation that can explain why it needs immortal power! "said the artifact spirit.
