The Senior Brother Qing Xu that Gu Zheng mentioned was Lord Dao De Qing Xu, who was ranked last among the early disciples of the Primordial Sect.
Although Qing Xu was ranked last among the early disciples of the Primordial Sect, he was undoubtedly the disciple that the Primordial Sect cared about the most. Before the first Chaos Tribulation, he had the most fairy weapons among the early disciples of the Primordial Sect.
The fact that the Primordial Sect had sent Qing Xu to fight for the Star Ruins Mountain showed that they were determined to get the mountain! After all, he had many fairy weapons that had passed the first Chaos Tribulation and his strength was at the middle stage of the Sage-to-be. He was definitely a powerful figure who could fight Wen Shi and Pu Xiang alone.
Because Qing Xu was a powerful figure, Fairy Yunyin did not want Gu Zheng to have a direct confrontation with him at the beginning. Moreover, Qing Xu was not the only one who had arrived at the foot of the Star Ruins Mountain. The disciples of the Primordial Sect and Tian Wu were also present. Who knew if they were in an alliance now?
Gu Zheng could imagine Fairy Yunyin's worries. However, these people's cold faces made Gu Zheng feel a little better. However, Qing Xu's smiling face made Gu Zheng feel a little disgusted. What were they doing here? Didn't they want the Star Ruins Mountain? Since they wanted the Star Ruins Mountain, why did they pretend to be a family?
"It's nothing. I'm just speaking the truth. Senior Brother Qing Xu has indeed arrived quite early!" Gu Zheng smiled faintly.
Qing Xu frowned again, "Junior Brother, you have been to the Star Ruins Mountain before. You must know more about the Star Ruins Mountain than we do. I wanted to form an alliance with you to challenge the Star Ruins Mountain, but now it seems that you have no intention of doing so."
"I appreciate your kindness, but I have no intention of forming an alliance with you!"
Gu Zheng said faintly. He then looked at Fairy Yunyin and said, "Senior Sister, let's go to the other side!"
Looking at Gu Zheng and Fairy Yunyin flying to the other side of the Star Ruins Mountain, the disciple of the Primordial Sect, Venerable Wuchang, said with a smile, "Senior Brother, this Junior Brother who passed the Immortal Destroying Thunder Tribulation is very arrogant!"
Daoist Wuchang was also an early disciple of Skyreach. However, he wasn't like Qingxu, Wenhi, or Pu Xiang, who were already famous during the Investiture of the Gods era. He only obtained his Dao during the first chaos tribulation.
"We didn't know about the existence of the Star Ruins Mountain. We only found out later that something happened between Gu Zheng and the disciple of Devil Honorable Woodfern on the Star Ruins Mountain. Gu Zheng knew about the Star Ruins Mountain first, and Devil Exalted Woodfern told our master about the Star Ruins Mountain with ulterior motives. It's not hard to understand why Gu Zheng would talk to me like that. "
"Rare treasures of the heavens and earth have always been obtained by those who are fated to obtain them. He did go up the Star Ruins Mountain first, but what does that prove? Since the Star Ruins Mountain doesn't belong to Gu Zheng, why can't we fight for it? "Venerable Wuchang said coldly.
"There's nothing wrong with us fighting for it, but there's nothing wrong with them talking to us like that!"
Feng Ming, Tian Wu's disciple, shook her head and smiled. She then said, "Since we have time to talk about unimportant things, why don't the two of you think about how to break the barrier of the Star Ruins Mountain?"
"In any case, we're in an alliance now. Why does Junior Sister Feng Ming sound like she's helping an outsider?" Venerable Wuchang frowned.
"I'm not helping an outsider. I'm just telling the truth! Moreover, our alliance is only limited to climbing the mountain. Senior Brother, are you going to give up the opportunity to seize the Star Ruins Mountain to your Junior Sister? "Feng Ming said with a smile.
"Enough!"
Qing Xu said before Venerable Wuchang could speak. "It's easy to gather the strength of five Quasi-Saints to break the barrier. Originally, we wanted to wait for two people to come. But now, we'd better think of a new way! "
"It's not just Gu Zheng and Yun Yin. There's also Wen Shi and Pong Xiang. I think it'll be easier for us to form an alliance with Wen Shi and Pong Xiang," Venerable Wuchang said.
"Wen Shi and Pong Xiang?"
Qing Xu smiled coldly. "Don't wait! When I saw Gu Zheng and Yun Yin, I already knew that Wen Shi and Pong Xiang had died in their hands. "
"What?"
Venerable Wuchang and Feng Ming widened their eyes at the same time.
"Otherwise, why would I greet them with a smile when I knew that Gu Zheng wouldn't be happy with us?" Qing Xu said with a smile.
Venerable Wuchang and Feng Ming were shocked. Although Wen Shi and Pong Xiang were only Bodhisattvas and not Buddhas, they were already famous figures during the Age of Gods. Their strength was self-evident! But now, they had died in the hands of Gu Zheng and Fairy Yun Yin. This could only mean that Gu Zheng and Fairy Yun Yin were stronger than them. This was somewhat unexpected!
They had already flown to the other side of the Star Ruins Mountain. Fairy Yun Yin couldn't help but send a voice transmission to Gu Zheng. "Junior Brother, Senior Sister knows that you're unhappy that these people came to snatch the Star Ruins Mountain from you. However, Qing Xu didn't say anything overboard. Mocking him won't do us any good!"
"Senior Sister, you know that they want the Star Ruins Mountain. I'm already being polite by not thinking of harming them. As for greeting them with a smile, I'm too lazy to do so. Anyway, even if I greet them with a smile, I won't be able to change their original intentions. I understand Senior Sister's worries. Qing Xu has many Immortal Weapons that have gone through the first Chaos Tribulation. However, I want to tell Senior Sister that our strength isn't weak either! "
Gu Zheng paused and then said, "Senior Sister, you know that I have the Divine Ability to absorb damage. However, you don't know how I survived the Immortal Destroying Thunder Tribulation. Unless Qing Xu's Immortal Weapons are more powerful than the ninth Tribulation Thunder, they can't hurt me."
Gu Zheng's tone was calm. However, there was no doubt that Fairy Yun Yin's heart was exploding with thunder.
"Junior Brother, you mean to say that you didn't rely on Immortal Weapons to help you survive the Immortal Destroying Thunder Tribulation. You only relied on your Divine Ability to absorb damage?" Fairy Yun Yin's eyes widened.
"You can say that!" Gu Zheng smiled.
"You …"
Fairy Yun Yin was shocked and didn't know what to say for a moment.
Fairy Yun Yin had seen Gu Zheng's Divine Ability to absorb damage during the fight with Wen Shi and Pouncing Elephant. She was indeed shocked. However, she had never expected that Gu Zheng's ability to absorb damage was far beyond her imagination. He had actually survived the Immortal Destroying Thunder Tribulation with such a Divine Ability.
How powerful was the Immortal Destroying Thunder Tribulation? It was hard to say. In any case, no one except Gu Zheng had been able to survive the Immortal Destroying Thunder Tribulation. In the legends, the person who had lasted the longest in the Immortal Destroying Thunder Tribulation had only survived the sixth Tribulation Thunder! As for the people who had died under the Immortal Destroying Thunder Tribulation, they were also powerful people who had made a name for themselves during the Investiture of the Gods Era and had survived the first Chaos Tribulation! When they had died under the Immortal Destroying Thunder Tribulation, they had used all the Immortal Formations, Immortal Weapons and the like.
"When Master asked me to assist Junior Brother, she told me about some of Junior Brother's Divine Abilities. However, because of Jadewave's death, I also harbored hatred towards Junior Apprentice Brother in my heart. Master also knew about this. When I asked Master for more detailed information about you, Master smiled meaningfully but didn't say anything! Now, it seems that Master wanted you to shock me and also wanted you to dispel my arrogance! "Fairy Yun Yin sighed.
"Oh? In that case, Senior Apprentice Sister's degree of displeasure towards me in the past far exceeded my imagination? "Gu Zheng said with a smile.
Fairy Yun Yin stared at Gu Zheng. "I had a good relationship with Jadewave. After knowing that Jadewave had died, I went to the Heavenly Court to look for Master. Master told me that you had killed Jadewave. At that time, I really wanted to break the rules and kill you! In order to prevent me from doing anything rash, Master punished me by going into seclusion. It was only until this gathering that I was released. After I came out, I was still very displeased with you. However, after knowing about your relationship with Master, I had no choice but to accept Jadewave's death. When the gathering was about to end, Master asked me to help you. However, I was very displeased with you! Naturally, I had to look down on you from the bottom of my heart. I even thought of sparring with you in the Fog of Death to vent my anger. When we were at the edge of the Cloud of Death, I ignored you when you talked to me because I wanted to teach you a lesson. But when I really entered the Cloud of Death, I heard Master telling me not to disappoint her before she left. Only then did I feel a jolt in my heart, and I finally got over some things! Ever since then, Junior Brother, you've given me one shock after another! "
"Alright!"
Gu Zheng didn't know what to say. If Fairy Yun Yin hadn't mentioned this, he wouldn't have known that Fairy Yun Yin had wanted to break the rules and kill him. Before entering the Fog of Death, she was still thinking about how to punish him.
"Haha …"
Looking at the bitter smile on Gu Zheng's face, Fairy Yun Yin laughed happily. After she had laughed enough, she stuck out her tongue at Gu Zheng and said, "Fortunately, Senior Sister didn't really punish you. Otherwise, the one who would be punished would definitely be me!"
Gu Zheng smiled but didn't say anything. The smile on Fairy Yun Yin's face was quickly replaced by a trace of sadness.
"Junior Brother, now that we've fallen out with Qing Xu and the others, how are we going to break the barrier that seals the Star Ruins Mountain? What's going on with the Star Ruins Mountain? "
Although she was talking, as a Quasi-Saint, Fairy Yun Yin still had a certain understanding of the Star Ruins Mountain's barrier. She knew that if they wanted to break such a barrier, they would have to gather the strength of four Quasi-Saints.
"When I first came to the Star Ruins Mountain, there wasn't such a barrier outside the mountain. Previously, when I hadn't observed the Star Ruins Mountain up close, I had already told Senior Sister that I felt that this matter wasn't as simple as it seemed! Now that I've come into close contact with the Star Ruins Mountain, in addition to my understanding of the Star Ruins Mountain, I feel that there seems to be only one explanation for the abnormality of the Star Ruins Mountain. That is, someone has climbed the Star Ruins Mountain before us! "Gu Zheng said.
"Ah? Someone has climbed the Star Ruins Mountain before us? Who could it be? "Fairy Yun Yin frowned.
"I don't know. Anyway, it's not someone that the Sacred Immortals brought this time. Perhaps someone had climbed the Star Ruins Mountain not long after I left! It's really hard to say when it comes to luck. I thought that my luck was already very strong, but when it comes to the Star Ruins Mountain, perhaps there really is someone whose luck is stronger than mine! "
Gu Zheng shook his head and smiled, then said, "We'll still have to climb the Star Ruins Mountain to see what's going on! As for how to climb the Star Ruins Mountain, it doesn't necessarily require the combined strength of four Quasi-Saints! "
"Junior Brother, have you thought of a way?" Fairy Yun Yin's eyes lit up.
"I have. Previously, I've obtained some things that belong to outside the circle. Among them, there are some records about formations. I think I can try to use these things to break this barrier."
Gu Zheng had once broken through a formation that belonged to outside the circle in the mysterious space of the Turbulent Current Sea, and had also obtained some things that belonged to outside the circle.
After leaving the mysterious space of the Undercurrent Sea, Gu Zheng's affairs had been one after another. Even so, he still had time to sort out the things that belonged to outside the circle. He also paid extra attention to the records about formations. After all, the power of the mechanism formation that he had experienced in the mysterious space could not be said to be weak.
Unfortunately, as he had little time and did not have a deep understanding of things outside the circle, Gu Zheng could only say that he had some general idea about the research on formations. However, the Star Ruins Mountain was also outside the circle. Gu Zheng had already thought of using his knowledge about formations to break the barrier that had troubled the Quasi-Saints.
Gu Zheng took out a few strange metal objects from the Chaotic Space. After arranging these metal objects in a certain order, the metal objects produced rays of light that connected with each other, and then suspended in the air to form a formation.
Gu Zheng frowned, and a dark blue energy flew from his fingertip into the formation formed by the metal objects.
The formation was activated, and immediately, strange colored rays of light were produced from it, coming into contact with the barrier of the Star Ruins Mountain.
"Junior Brother, there's energy in your body that belongs to outside the circle?"
Fairy Yun Yin was very curious. The energy that Gu Zheng had used to activate the light formation gave her a strange feeling.
"Senior Sister, have you been outside the circle?" Gu Zheng asked.
"No." Fairy Yun Yin shook her head.
"Although I didn't ask my Master too much about things outside the circle, there are many things that are interconnected on the Great Dao. For example, as long as one has a sufficient understanding of the Dao of the Five Elements, the energy needed to activate this formation can be created through the fusion and differentiation of the Power of the Tao! After all, the Great Dao of the Five Elements is also applicable outside the circle, "Gu Zheng said.
"It's a pity that although Master is good at the Dao of the Five Elements, the Power of Gold in my body has yet to reach the level of the Tao, and the rest are only at the elementary level. On the other hand, Junior Brother, you've only obtained the opportunity from the Spiritual Sense Phantom that Master left behind in the Doctrine Propagation Palace, and your control of the Dao of the Five Elements has already reached the intermediate level, and because of this, you've developed various incredible magical powers. I can only say that I'm envious of you! "Fairy Yun Yin exclaimed.
"The opportunity that I obtained from Master's Spiritual Sense Phantom is already used for the Doctrine Propagation Palace, so I can't use it to discuss the Doctrine with Senior Sister. However, I also have my own understanding and experience regarding the Dao of the Five Elements. Once the matter of the Starvoid Mountain is over, the two of us can communicate more. Perhaps Senior Sister will be able to gain something from it, "said Gu Zheng.
Although the Doctrine Propagation Palace had caused many more Immortal Cultivators to comprehend the Tao in the Untainted Land, the experience that could be used for the Doctrine Propagation Palace was not something that could be shared with others without limit. There was only one chance to share this experience with others, and the person who shared it could not share the experience of comprehending the Tao again! Otherwise, there would definitely be many more Immortal Cultivators comprehending the Tao in the Untainted Land. Otherwise, the Myriad Immortal Taoist Field would be overcrowded every day.
"Thank you, Junior Brother!"
Although it was only an exchange of experience, it was a very precious opportunity, and Fairy Yun Yin thanked him happily.
"By the way, Junior Brother, if you use this method to break the barrier, will the barrier be completely broken, and Qing Xu and the others will be able to ascend the Star Ruins Mountain?" Fairy Yun Yin asked.
"Senior Sister, the method I used will create a gap in the barrier, which will make the entire barrier weak. We can use the gap to ascend the Star Ruins Mountain and take the initiative. The fastest way for them to ascend the Star Ruins Mountain is through the gap that we have created. The second way is to destroy the barrier that has already become weak. "
Gu Zheng paused for a moment before continuing, "Senior Sister, the passageway is about to open. After entering the Star Ruins Mountain, both of us have to be more careful! According to my initial understanding of the Star Ruins Mountain, the consciousness of the Star Ruins Mountain is already very weak, and it should not pose any threat to us. However, Senior Sister has already seen the abnormality. After entering the Star Ruins Mountain, we have to be extremely careful. If we are forced to separate once we enter the Star Ruins Mountain, Senior Sister must not act rashly. Just stay where you are and wait for me to find you! "
"Alright, I will listen to Junior Brother!"
Fairy Yun Yin nodded solemnly when she saw how serious Gu Zheng was.
"Crack …"
The sound of ice cracking could be heard as a round passageway appeared on the colorless barrier of the Star Ruins Mountain.
Gu Zheng put away the light array, held Fairy Yun Yin's hand, and flew into the passageway.
The last time they had come to the Star Ruins Mountain, Gu Zheng had been forced to separate from Xiong San and the others. Gu Zheng had been worried that the same thing would happen again, so he had been holding Fairy Yun Yin's hand tightly.
However, what he had not wanted to happen had still happened. Gu Zheng felt the scene before his eyes change, and his hand instantly lost its gentleness and softness.
A moment later, Gu Zheng's vision recovered. He realized that he had arrived at the place where he had first ascended the Star Ruins Mountain. As for Fairy Yun Yin, who had been holding his hand, she was nowhere to be found.
With a thought, a green jade talisman appeared in Gu Zheng's hand. It was Fairy Yun Yin's positioning jade talisman.
Something that Gu Zheng had not expected happened again. He had been able to find out Xiong San's location through the positioning jade talisman the last time he had been on the Star Ruins Mountain. However, this time, the positioning jade talisman was affected by some mysterious force. It did not show Fairy Yun Yin's light spot at all. Furthermore, Gu Zheng realized that there were many colorless barriers on the Star Ruins Mountain. These barriers had probably divided the Star Ruins Mountain into many grids, and he and Fairy Yun Yin were in two grids.
"Damn it!"
Gu Zheng cursed. Just as he was about to break the barriers and try to find Fairy Yun Yin, a strange sound was heard.
Gu Zheng was delighted. The strange sound was Fairy Yun Yin's guqin. He had not expected that Fairy Yun Yin's guqin would be able to break through the barriers and guide him in such an environment.
Without hesitation, Gu Zheng immediately flew in the direction of the guqin sound.
"Bang …"
A loud sound was heard, and Gu Zheng's body swayed in the air. He had been hit by an invisible attack, but the damage caused by the attack had been absorbed by his Yin Yang Immortal Sphere.
"The consciousness of the Star Ruins Mountain!"
Gu Zheng gritted his teeth. He had encountered a similar attack on the Star Ruins Mountain the last time.
However, a scholar who had been away for three days had to be looked at with new eyes. The current Gu Zheng was not the Gu Zheng who had ascended the Star Ruins Mountain for the first time.
