"Master, my Mark of Evil Karma has disappeared."
Gu Zheng had wanted to tell his master about it after the gathering, but now it seemed that it was better to let his master know as soon as possible.
"It seems that the calamity will happen during your trip to the Death Mist."
Gokusen paused for a moment before continuing, "Along the way, Lin Xuan has communicated with many people through voice transmission. They should be talking about the Star Void Mountain."
At Gu Zheng's level, he could not sense the voice transmission between Saints. Now that Gokusen had mentioned it, he agreed with Gokusen's guess.
"The Star Void Mountain is a good thing. I must get it. After the gathering, I will send you to the Death Mist immediately. There are some things that Saints can do, but there are some that Saints can't participate in. What happens next depends on you, my disciple, "Gokusen said seriously.
"Thank you, Master!" Gu Zheng said.
While Gokusen and Gu Zheng were communicating through voice transmission, Lin Xuan and his disciple, the Enchantress, were also communicating through voice transmission.
"Master, who do you think will get the Star Void Mountain?" The Enchantress asked Lin Xuan.
Just as Gu Zheng had guessed, Lin Xuan had already told the other Saints about the Star Void Mountain.
"No matter who gets the Star Void Mountain, they will owe me a favor. As long as it's not Gu Zheng!" Lin Xuan sneered.
"That damned Gu Zheng. The Star Void Mountain belongs to me!" The Enchantress gritted her teeth.
The Enchantress had not entered the Quasi-Saint Realm, so the person who had gone to the Star Void Mountain was the Bloodthirsty Demon Supremacy. However, even if the Bloodthirsty Demon Supremacy had gotten the Star Void Mountain, it would have become the Enchantress' immortal weapon in the future. Unfortunately, Lin Xuan did not have any suitable subordinates to go to the Star Void Mountain. Otherwise, he would not have told anyone else.
"He who has the last laugh is the best. It doesn't matter who temporarily controls the Star Void Mountain. After the Battlefield of Opportunity, whoever has the Star Void Mountain will be the true owner of the Star Void Mountain. However, you are definitely no match for Gu Zheng now. You better be careful when you meet him, "Lin Xuan said.
"Understood, Master!" Mo Mei replied.
"It's time for a toast. I didn't expect him to be the first one to want that aura." Cyathea smiled.
Primordial raised his cup towards Shera Fern. From his smile, Shera Fern knew what he wanted.
Cyathea smiled and flicked a finger. A colorless ripple flew toward Primordial and was absorbed into his sleeve.
Next, Cundi also raised his cup to Cyathea and received a colorless wave.
A moment later, Gu Zheng sneered in his heart.
Gu Zheng naturally knew what was inside the colorless ripple that Cyathea had just shot out. As for those who had received the colorless waves, they were the Primordial Lord of Heaven, Zhunti, Tongtian, Jieyin, and Tianwu.
"The five forces are eyeing the Star Ruins Mountain!" Gokusen transmitted his voice to Gu Zheng.
"Master, this is actually less than I thought!" Gu Zheng smiled.
"This trip may be very dangerous. Disciple, don't underestimate the enemy. I'm not worried about your strength, but Immortal Artifacts are a variable!" Gokusen said seriously.
"I understand."
When Gokusen mentioned Immortal Artifacts, Gu Zheng became much more serious. Before meeting Gokusen, Gu Zheng had underestimated Immortal Artifacts.
After the last Chaos Tribulation, the Eldritch World had become a higher plane. As a result, changes had appeared in various aspects. For example, the density of Immortal Core Power, the probability of breaking through bottlenecks, the probability of enlightenment, the number of Holy Positions, and so on. Among these changes, one of them was Immortal Artifacts.
Most of the Immortal Artifacts that Gu Zheng had heard of in legends since he was young could be found in the Eldritch World. Most of these Immortal Artifacts were no longer the same as in legends. They had become even more powerful! The extent of these Immortal Artifacts' power depended entirely on how much they had contributed to the Eldritch World during the last Chaos Tribulation.
Gu Zheng's Flipping Sky Seal was originally a very famous fairy weapon in the legends. Unfortunately, the Flipping Sky Seal did not participate in the last Chaos Tribulation, so its power was still the same as in the legends.
For the current Gu Zheng, the Flipping Sky Seal, which was originally very famous, was not powerful enough! However, those Immortal Artifacts that were not as famous as the Flipping Sky Seal were almost more powerful than it after the last Chaos Tribulation.
In terms of strength, Gokusen ranked Gu Zheng in the top five Sage-to-be. However, if the Immortal Artifacts were taken into account, Gu Zheng's overall ranking would definitely fall. After all, Gu Zheng did not have Immortal Artifacts that had gone through the Chaos Tribulation and received the blessings of Heaven and Earth. However, these Immortal Artifacts that had received the blessings of Heaven and Earth had become very special. Not only could they not change owners, but they would also be completely destroyed after the death of their owners!
To Gu Zheng, some of these legendary special Immortal Artifacts were existences that could threaten him.
After an incense stick's worth of time, the banquet ended. Laozi said a few more words and everyone began to leave the Dew Palace.
This time, not only the disciples of the Sages attending the Dew Palace's banquet, but also the early disciples of the Sages who could attend.
Gokusen was the first to leave with Gu Zheng. Then, many people outside the Dew Palace disappeared. Of the ten Sages, only Laozi, Empress NvWa, and Shala were left standing outside the Dew Palace. The three Saints looked at each other, each with different expressions. Then, they all disappeared, leaving behind the confused Immortals looking at each other.
Gokusen brought Gu Zheng to the edge of the Fog of Death. Le Xian immediately brought her eldest disciple, Yunyin, and appeared nearby.
"Senior Brother did not bring Lan Yue with you?" Le Xian asked.
"Lan Yue has her own things to do in the Immortal Camp! Besides, Junior Sister has already brought Yunyin. There is no need for too many people! "Gokusen said.
"Thank you, Uncle-Master. Actually, I was planning to go to the Star Ruins Mountain alone."
Gu Zheng felt warmth in his heart. He did not know that Le Xian would bring Fairy Yunyin.
"This time is different from the past. It is not wrong to be careful. Having Yunyin accompany you is the only help I can give you!" Le Xian said solemnly.
Although the early disciples of the Sages would not clash with the Tribulation Transcendence disciples under normal circumstances, there were certain exceptions! For example, some restrictions and rules did not apply in places where the Sages could not set foot. For example, the Fog of Death! If two types of disciples clashed in the Fog of Death, the early disciples of the Sages could also kill the Tribulation Transcendence disciples!
"Be careful. Other than you, no one else who came to the Fog of Death is a Tribulation Transcendence disciple!"
Gokusen had already found out which Sages and their disciples had appeared at the edge of the Fog of Death. He also transmitted the information of these people to Gu Zheng.
"Every killing has its own sin to bear, especially when the person who was killed is a disciple of a Sage! Sometimes, evil karma can really affect one's luck. "
Gokusen patted Gu Zheng's shoulder and his expression turned solemn. "After entering the Fog of Death, do not take the initiative to cause trouble. However, do not be overly merciful. If there is anyone who does not know their place, kill them!"
"Master, I understand!" Gu Zheng said solemnly.
"Go!"
Gokusen nodded at Gu Zheng and then disappeared with Le Xian.
"Senior Sister, shall we go?"
Gu Zheng smiled at Fairy Yunyin.
Gu Zheng had seen Fairy Yunyin at the banquet. He had also greeted Fairy Yunyin, but Fairy Yunyin had ignored him.
Fairy Yunyin did not say anything and only glanced at Gu Zheng before flying into the Fog of Death.
Gu Zheng felt a headache coming on. He had thought that Fairy Yunyin's attitude towards him would change after being sent by Le Xian. However, it seemed that was not the case at all! If he had to bring such a companion along, Gu Zheng felt that it would be better not to bring her along.
"Let's go. What are you waiting for? I don't know how to find the Star Ruins Mountain! "
Fairy Yunyin turned around. Her voice and expression were no longer as cold as Gu Zheng had imagined. It was as if she had become a different person.
"Senior Sister, you don't know how to find the Star Ruins Mountain?"
Fairy Yun Yin's change was too fast, which made Gu Zheng ask subconsciously.
"Do you think it's so easy to find the Star Ruins Mountain? Master spent so many years of effort to allow Junior Sister to sense the existence of the Star Ruins Mountain! "Fairy Yunyin glared at Gu Zheng.
"Let's go!"
Gu Zheng smiled awkwardly and followed Fairy Yunyin.
Gu Zheng's cultivation was now at the early stage of the Quasi-Sage Realm. Previously, the lightning in the Fog of Death had little effect on him, but now, it could be ignored. As for Fairy Yunyin, her cultivation was at the middle stage of the Quasi-Sage Realm. The lightning's effect on her was also negligible.
"Apart from the lightning, the Fog of Death also has the property of making people lose their bearings. This property would be very troublesome for ordinary cultivators. However, it was not a problem for the disciples of the Sage Immortals! Although Sacred Immortals were unable to enter the 'clouds of death', they were able to create special jade talismans that allowed the holder of the jade talisman to not be affected by the disorientation power of the 'clouds of death'. This was why Gu Zheng was able to meet Paragon Bloodfiend and Fairy Jadewave on Mt. Starvoid.
Gu Zheng and Fairy Yunyin both had such jade talismans. They did not have to worry about getting lost.
"Among the few Junior Sisters, I have the best relationship with Bipo." Fairy Yunyin sighed.
"I'm sorry, Senior Sister. There are some things that you have to look on the bright side!" Gu Zheng smiled bitterly.
"Yes, there are some things that you have to look on the bright side! Even Master can look on the bright side, but I can't let it go. My state of mind still needs to be sharpened. "
Fairy Yunyin paused. When she turned to look at Gu Zheng, a smile appeared on her face. "Junior Brother, don't take what happened before to heart. I will definitely do my best to help you obtain the Star Ruins Mountain this time!"
Gu Zheng was originally worried that Fairy Yunyin would be emotional. He did not expect her to adjust so quickly. He was delighted and said, "I don't remember any unhappiness between me and Senior Sister! I am extremely grateful for Senior Sister's company this time! "
"Pfft!"
Fairy Yunyin was amused by Gu Zheng's serious expression. She glared at Gu Zheng and said, "If you really want to thank Senior Sister, after this trip is over, I will cook a few dishes for you as repayment. I haven't tasted enough of the dishes you cooked at the banquet!"
"Sure, if Senior Sister wants to eat, forget about a few dishes, even dozens of dishes won't be a problem!" Gu Zheng laughed heartily.
"Junior Brother, you are really amazing. I heard Master praising you non-stop. A few days ago, you even passed the Immortal Annihilation Thunder Tribulation. Amazing!"
Although Fairy Yunyin was a mid-Saint, there was a trace of undisguised admiration in her eyes when she praised Gu Zheng.
"Senior Sister, you flatter me!"
Gu Zheng was a little embarrassed by Fairy Yunyin's praise.
"Junior Brother …"
Fairy Yunyin, who had untied the knot in her heart, immediately asked him about her curiosity one by one.
Due to his relationship with Le Xian, Gu Zheng also kept a close eye on Fairy Yunyin. He answered her curiosity as much as he could. The two of them also laughed from time to time during their conversation.
After a while, Fairy Yunyin, who was chatting happily with Gu Zheng, suddenly asked, "Junior Brother, are you feeling a little helpless?"
"Oh? Why do you say that? "Gu Zheng asked in return.
Fairy Yunyin glared at Gu Zheng and said, "I heard from Master that you have some tricks up your sleeve. Junior Brother, you have the Moon Catching Shooting Star Divine Ability. Isn't this speed a little too slow for you to travel with Senior Sister?"
"Finding the Star Ruins Mountain depends on luck. We have to find the jade-white lightning in the depths of the Death Fog. Therefore, it is not certain that we will be the first to ascend the Star Ruins Mountain. Besides, our current speed is not considered slow. I am using the Phoenix Eagle Wings and you are using the Wind Escape Technique. Our speed is already considered fast. "Gu Zheng laughed.
"I didn't realize that Junior Brother was so good with words! Do you have a Dao Companion? "Fairy Yunyin glared at Gu Zheng again.
"No, Junior Brother is wholeheartedly pursuing the Dao. I have no intention of becoming a Dao Companion!"
Regardless of what Fairy Yunyin meant by her question, Gu Zheng gave a dishonest answer.
Fairy Yunyin smiled and spoke again, "Senior Sister's grasp of the Space Dao is only at the elementary level. You can use the Moon Catching Shooting Star Divine Ability to bring me along. Although finding the jade-white lightning depends on luck, if we can reach the depths of the Death Fog earlier, it is better to reach it earlier!"
"Forget about it! Even if Senior Sister has also grasped the Space Dao, Junior Brother's Dao is not enough. If I use the Moon Catching Shooting Star Divine Ability to bring you along and an accident happens and Senior Sister is thrown into the black hole, then the loss will outweigh the gain. "Gu Zheng shook his head.
"Just do as I say. Why are you talking so much? If Senior Sister is not confident, would I suggest this to you? "Fairy Yunyin said with a stern face.
"Alright!"
Gu Zheng smiled helplessly and released the Chaos Pagoda. "Senior Sister, enter the pagoda. I will bring Senior Sister there now!"
Actually, even if Fairy Yunyin did not mention the problem of speed, Gu Zheng would have mentioned the problem of speed. It was just that he was too embarrassed to say it and Fairy Yunyin had said it herself.
"Dishonest!"
Fairy Yunyin glared at Gu Zheng before entering the Chaos Pagoda.
Gu Zheng brought the Chaos Pagoda and immediately used the Moon Catching Shooting Star Divine Ability to rush into the depths of the Death Fog.
Previously, it had taken him a long time to reach the depths of the Death Fog. Now, Gu Zheng had reached it after using the Moon Catching Shooting Star twice.
With the jade talisman, Gu Zheng did not have to worry about losing his way in the Death Fog.
However, the jade talisman could not completely negate the characteristics of the Death Fog. In here, the five senses, including Spiritual Force, were still limited! Therefore, when Gu Zheng used the Moon Catching Shooting Star Divine Ability to rush, it was not much different from rushing forward blindly. Because of this, the place where Gu Zheng ended the Moon Catching Shooting Star Divine Ability was not ideal. Before he could release Fairy Yunyin from the Chaos Pagoda, two bald heads appeared in his line of sight.
"Amitabha!"
The moment they saw Gu Zheng, the two bald heads chanted the name of Buddha at the same time. They were the two Bodhisattvas that Zhunti had sent to the Death Fog, Wen Shi and Pu Xiang.
"Fellow Daoist, we are truly fated!" Bodhisattva Wen Shi laughed.
"Yes, we are truly fated!" Gu Zheng shook his head and laughed.
"Fellow Daoist, where did Fairy Yunyin go?" Pu Xiang asked.
If Gokusen could know who the other Sage Immortals had brought, Zhunti and Zhunti naturally knew that Fairy Yunyin had brought Fairy Yunyin to help Gu Zheng.
"Fellow Daoist, why are you asking about my Senior Sister? Could it be that when my Senior Sister is around, you treat me with one attitude, and when my Senior Sister isn't around, you treat me with another attitude? "Gu Zheng laughed.
"I knew you were the smartest, fellow Daoist!"
Wen Shi smiled at Gu Zheng, a ruthless look on his face. "Shouldn't we settle accounts for killing my mount?"
"Fellow Daoists, do you really want to settle accounts with me?"
Gu Zheng glanced at Wen Shi and Pu Xiang, and then at Wen Shi. Then he said solemnly, "Fellow Daoist, have you forgotten what I warned you before we parted?"
Wen Shi naturally remembered Gu Zheng's words. At the same time, he also knew that Gu Zheng was now a Sage-to-be and his cultivation was much stronger than before. However, Wen Shi was not afraid of Gu Zheng. When he went to the Xuanyin Sect, he did not expect to meet a strong opponent. Therefore, he did not bring the fairy weapons that were being nurtured in the Buddhist Sect! If it were not for this reason, as one of the Four Great Bodhisattvas of the Buddhist Sect, how could he swallow the resentment of having his mount killed!
"If you don't mention the warning, I will let you live a little longer. Since you mention it, I will release your soul now!"
Like a mad lion, Wen Shi was truly enraged. Gu Zheng's warning back then was a humiliation to him! It was like an adult being warned by a child that he would be killed if he caused any more trouble! However, the adult was forced by the situation and did not dare to say anything. This was not only a disgrace, but also an unspeakable grievance!
Almost along with Wen Shi's roar, the "Death Fog", which was not well lit, shone with golden light. A yellow and orange golden pillar smashed toward Gu Zheng's head.
The yellow and orange golden pillar was Wen Shi's fairy weapon, the Invisible Dragon Rod. It was originally a fairy weapon used to tie people up. After being blessed by heaven and earth, it was more powerful than the Flipping Sky Seal when it smashed people.
Gu Zheng moved in a flash and avoided the Invisible Dragon Rod's attack on his head. At the same time, he released Fairy Yunyin, who could not wait any longer, from the Chaos Tower.
"Junior Brother, since Wen Shi wants to release your soul, you don't need to hold back. Release his soul first! I will help you to hold off the bald ass Pong Xiang! "
Yunyin was self-aware. Although her cultivation was the same as Pong Xiang's, she did not think that she could kill Pong Xiang without a fairy weapon blessed by heaven and earth.
"Senior Sister, be careful!"
Gu Zheng exhorted. The Flipping Sky Seal released by him automatically defended against the enemy. It collided with the Invisible Dragon Rod that flew over again, making a loud noise.
