"Crack …"
The third Heavenly Tribulation descended from the tribulation clouds.
The metal spikes on the surface of the furious man's body flashed, and a net of light was formed from them, wrapping around the third Heavenly Tribulation.
The furious man's body had been modified by the "damned thing" before. Even Gu Zheng felt that the light from his metal spikes was extremely powerful. However, the powerful net of light still could not stop the third Heavenly Tribulation. It was torn into pieces by the Heavenly Tribulation, and the remaining power of the Heavenly Tribulation landed on the furious man's body again, causing his body to ignite with white lightning fire.
The furious man's body trembled, and demonic mist came out of his body. The lightning fire was quickly extinguished, but he was basically burned beyond recognition.
The power of each Heavenly Tribulation was stronger than the previous one, not to mention the fact that it was targeted at the Heavenly Tribulation. The furious man thought that with his strength, he could only withstand one more Heavenly Tribulation.
"Rumble …"
The fourth Heavenly Tribulation was brewing in the tribulation clouds, and it was about to descend.
The furious man roared into the sky, and he actually spat out all 20 of his inner cores.
The 20 inner cores had 20 different colors. They formed a rotating light formation in the air, welcoming the fourth Heavenly Tribulation.
"Sigh …"
Gu Zheng couldn't help but sigh. The angry man was truly very strong. The light array formed by the twenty Neidans caused even his heart to tremble! However, under the Heavenly Punishment, the furious man would not be able to survive the next Heavenly Tribulation even with the inner core light formation.
"Crack …"
The fourth Heavenly Tribulation descended.
"Sigh …"
Gu Zheng sighed again. He turned around and walked towards the palace. Since he could not stop the tragedy from happening, he might as well not look at it.
"Bang, bang, bang, bang …"
The explosions in the air were continuous. Gu Zheng did not dare to look back to see if the furious man's inner core had exploded under the Heavenly Tribulation. However, even if he did not look, the furious man's screams still entered his ears.
"Master!"
The furious man called out weakly. Gu Zheng's heart twitched. He was most afraid of hearing the furious man's voice at that moment.
However, Gu Zheng suddenly turned around. He heard a trace of excitement in the furious man's weak voice! How could there be excitement at this time? Could it be that things had taken a turn for the better?
The expected scene of the furious man's twenty inner cores being shattered did not happen. They were still emitting a dazzling luster in the air.
The angry man had already stopped falling. He looked at Gu Zheng who had turned around and shouted excitedly, "Master!"
Gu Zheng frowned. He did not understand why.
Thunder rumbled in the tribulation clouds. The fifth tribulation was about to descend. The angry man didn't have time to explain. He waved his hand at the twenty cores in the air. One of the purple cores suddenly shone brightly and shot a purple beam of light at Gu Zheng.
Gu Zheng's eyes widened when he saw the purple light. He felt a trace of contract information from the purple light. He wasn't unfamiliar with this contract because it had appeared on the butterfly spirit before.
In the blink of an eye, the purple light flew into Gu Zheng's mind. Gu Zheng's body trembled as if he was shivering. He suddenly felt that his relationship with the angry man had changed.
"Good!"
Gu Zheng roared. He looked at the tribulation clouds in the sky. His eyes were filled with fighting spirit and ecstasy!
"Congratulations Master!"
Before anyone could react, the butterfly spirit was already excitedly congratulating Gu Zheng.
Gu Zheng never thought that the angry man's death tribulation would become a great opportunity for the two of them. He had actually formed a blessing and misfortune contract with the angry man!
The butterfly spirit had a blessing and misfortune contract with Gu Zheng. Therefore, she could understand why Gu Zheng was ecstatic. However, this type of contract was not something that could be formed by humans. It was purely a coincidence that she was able to form this contract! However, the blessing and misfortune contract between Gu Zheng and the angry man was clearly led by the angry man. This was simply inconceivable.
No matter how inconceivable it was, the blessing and misfortune contract between Gu Zheng and the angry man began from this moment! In the future, the relationship between him and the angry man would be like the butterfly spirit. No matter which one of them received the blessing of heaven and earth, the other would be able to enjoy it as well! If they were to face a tribulation, the two of them could bear it together and the power of the tribulation wouldn't change!
"Kacha …"
The tribulation clouds sent down the fifth tribulation that would have been able to kill the angry man. However, with the blessing and misfortune contract, if the angry man couldn't deal with the tribulation, Gu Zheng would help him!
Letting out a long howl, Gu Zheng flew toward the fifth heavenly tribulation and was struck squarely by it.
However, the moment the tribulation struck Gu Zheng, the Five Elements Immortal's Ball in his body began to spin. The energy from the tribulation was absorbed by the Five Elements Immortal's Ball and didn't cause any harm to his body.
"Mister is mighty!"
Originally, when Meow Meow saw that Gu Zheng dared to take on the heavenly tribulation, it was worried. But now, seeing that Gu Zheng was able to take on the heavenly tribulation without being punished, Meow Meow finally relaxed.
The Intolerable Heavens was very powerful, but it was nothing to Gu Zheng. After all, Gu Zheng was neither a demonic cultivator nor a demon cultivator. This type of tribulation targeted at normal cultivators like him would be greatly reduced in power.
Gu Zheng withstood the remaining four Lightning Tribulations by himself. The Obliteration Tribulations no longer felt any pressure. The tribulation clouds in the sky also began to transform into auspicious clouds. The raging man's 9-by-9 Heavenly Tribulation was over.
"Master, it's like this …"
Seeing that Gu Zheng had easily passed through the Intolerable Heavens, the angry man couldn't wait to tell him the whole story.
After entering the Demon Emperor Realm, the angry man was really excited. He felt that all his inner cores had become different because of entering the Demon Emperor Realm. These inner cores seemed to have been sublimated. There seemed to be something inside that he didn't understand waiting to be discovered. He also told Gu Zheng about this.
However, when the angry man told Gu Zheng about this, Gu Zheng was still immersed in the sadness of the angry man facing the Intolerable Heavens. Gu Zheng didn't have the time to think about the difference in the angry man's advancement to the Demon Emperor Realm.
The angry man had no choice but to sacrifice his twenty inner cores to face the fourth tribulation. Under the powerful tribulation, this was his only trump card to hold on for a while.
The fourth tribulation struck the angry man's twenty inner cores. Something unexpected happened. The twenty inner cores seemed to have awakened in the process of sharing the energy of the tribulation. Not only did they resist the fourth tribulation, but a large amount of information also surged into the angry man's mind. Among them was the magic of how to make a blessing and curse contract with others!
Hearing the angry man's words, Gu Zheng laughed. This was really a blessing and a curse! The tribulation that was supposed to kill the angry man had coincidentally awakened his inner cores. From now on, the angry man's future was really bright!
"Good!"
Gu Zheng patted the angry man's shoulder. His eyes were full of praise.
"You're amazing, angry man. Looks like I won't be your opponent in the future!"
Meow Meow also patted the angry man's shoulder. Other than certainty, there was also envy in its eyes.
"Angry man, from now on, beside master, you might be the strongest. I have high hopes for you!" Die Ling smiled at the angry man.
Indeed, the angry man's twenty inner cores had all awakened. These inner cores each had their own magic. Although Nu Han had only obtained a few divine abilities, since his inner cores had already awakened, it was only a matter of time before divine abilities appeared. Even if there were still some inner cores that didn't have divine abilities, it was only a matter of time before divine abilities appeared. There was no need for any fortuitous encounters to trigger them. Twenty inner cores were unprecedented. It was hard to say how many magic arts would be created from them!
After being praised, the angry man was very happy. Then, he and Gu Zheng received the blessings of heaven and earth together.
The harder the tribulation, the more powerful the blessings of heaven and earth would be after successfully passing it.
Immortal essence rushed into the angry man and Gu Zheng's body like a tide. Their cultivation also increased under the immortal essence.
The crazy blessings of heaven and earth finally dissipated. The angry man who had just reached the Demonic Emperor realm had actually reached the mid Demonic Emperor realm!
The higher one's cultivation, the harder it was to increase it. If it was an ordinary demonic cultivator, it would take tens of thousands of years or even longer to reach the mid Demonic Emperor realm from the early Demonic Emperor realm! However, the blessings of heaven and earth were the blessings of the Heavenly Dao. Its effect on cultivation couldn't be explained with normal logic.
The Immortal Vanquishing Lightning Tribulation was on the same level as the Immortal Vanquishing Lightning Tribulation. Since ancient times, only Gu Zheng had successfully passed the Immortal Vanquishing Lightning Tribulation. Compared to the Immortal Vanquishing Lightning Tribulation, among all the demonic cultivators and demonic cultivators who encountered the Immortal Vanquishing Lightning Tribulation, only the angry man had successfully passed it! After Gu Zheng passed the Immortal Vanquishing Lightning Tribulation, the blessings of heaven and earth were also very shocking. It allowed Gu Zheng's Gokusen Technique, which had just reached the seventh level, to reach the third level of the seventh level. Even the early Demonic Emperor realm Die Ling reached the mid Demonic Emperor realm. And this time, Gokusen's Technique, which had reached the seventh level and 40% of the seventh level, was forcefully raised to the seventh level and 60% of the seventh level. He was only 10% away from the late Demonic Sage realm!
"Master, you used to be envious of my cultivation speed. Now, you don't have to be envious!"
Die Ling had reached the mid Demonic Sage realm before Gu Zheng. But now, Gu Zheng's cultivation speed was faster than Die Ling's and was closer to the late Demonic Sage realm. This made Die Ling very happy. She liked the feeling of looking up to Gu Zheng.
"It's a pity." The angry man suddenly said.
"What's a pity?" Gu Zheng asked.
"It's a pity that Sister Miaomiao has already reached the Demonic Emperor realm. Otherwise, she could also form a Blessing and Misfortune contract with Master. That way, Master's cultivation speed would be even faster!" The angry man said.
"What do you mean? You mean you can make Miaomiao form a Blessing and Misfortune contract with me? "
Gu Zheng's eyes widened. Die Ling and Miaomiao's beautiful eyes also widened.
"The ability awakened in the purple inner core is the Contract Formation. Not only can it be used on me, it can also allow others to form a Blessing and Misfortune contract with Master. However, this ability can only be used once. "The angry man said.
"That's great!" Miaomiao shouted excitedly.
Gu Zheng and Miaomiao didn't have a master-slave contract. Due to certain reasons, Gu Zheng didn't form a master-slave contract with Miaomiao. This didn't matter to Gu Zheng, but to Miaomiao, it was a bit of a pity. In the past, when Gu Zheng only had Miaomiao and the angry man as servants, Miaomiao's regret could be ignored. However, after meeting Die Ling, Miaomiao's regret intensified. Although she got along very well with Die Ling, and the two of them were sisters at first sight, it was inevitable that sisters would compare themselves! What's more, apart from having a master-slave contract with Gu Zheng, Die Ling and Gu Zheng also had a Blessing and Misfortune contract. This was something that Miaomiao couldn't be more envious of! But now, the angry man's opportunity had given her a chance to form a Blessing and Misfortune contract with Gu Zheng. How could she not be excited!
"Then let Miaomiao form a Blessing and Misfortune contract with me!"
Gu Zheng was also very excited. He naturally understood Miaomiao's thoughts. If he could make Miaomiao happy and benefit both of them, why wouldn't he do something like this?
Gu Zheng didn't think much of what the angry man said. After all, even if a Blessing and Misfortune contract was formed, before Miaomiao advanced to the Demon Emperor stage, he would only gain the accumulation of Immortal Force. At his current cultivation level, the density of Immortal Force wasn't the only standard to measure one's strength. What was more important was enlightenment! As long as he formed a Blessing and Misfortune contract with Miaomiao, no matter which one of them was able to trigger the blessings of heaven and earth due to enlightenment, the other person would be able to share it.
Moreover, don't think that it was difficult to trigger the blessings of heaven and earth. To others, it was something that could only be chanced upon and not sought. However, to Gu Zheng, it wasn't! After all, Gu Zheng was the owner of the Star Void Mountain. He himself had many experiences of triggering the blessings of heaven and earth due to enlightenment. As long as the Star Void Mountain could be repaired to a certain extent and the Doctrine Propagation Palace could be restored to normal use, then it wouldn't be a dream for him to be able to trigger the blessings of heaven and earth!
Under the effect of the angry man's remarkable ability, Miaomiao and Gu Zheng also formed a Blessing and Misfortune contract. At this point, as long as one of the three could trigger the blessings of heaven and earth due to enlightenment, Gu Zheng would be able to share it with them.
This was an exciting day. The unhappiness brought back from the poisonous swamp was swept away in everyone's hearts. Gu Zheng wanted to fulfill his promise to the angry man. He wanted to cook a table full of delicious food to celebrate.
Everyone was naturally very happy that Gu Zheng wanted to cook delicious food to celebrate. This was something that they always craved.
In order to make everyone happy, Gu Zheng wanted to cook a total of eighteen dishes this time. Among them, the Dragon Whiskered Fish that the angry man wanted to eat was the highlight.
Back on Foggy Wind Island, Gu Zheng threw the three Dragon Whiskered Fish into the pond in the Chaos Space and didn't bother with them. Now, the three Dragon Whiskered Fish that were originally more than ten kilograms each had grown to around twenty kilograms. Moreover, because they were in a special environment like the Chaos Space, the Dragon Whiskered Fish that were originally only mid-grade ingredients had grown to become excellent ingredients.
The angry man wanting to eat the Dragon Whiskered Fish naturally reminded Gu Zheng of many things about his hometown. Therefore, for the Dragon Whiskered Fish this time, Gu Zheng used all the ingredients that he had brought from his hometown.
Earth was a low-grade plane, and there were very few high-grade ingredients. However, for the current Gu Zheng, even if it was a low-grade ingredient, he could still turn it into a delicacy through his culinary skills.
With the Dragon Whiskered Fish as the main ingredient, there were six supplementary ingredients. Gu Zheng improved the quality of these ingredients and then cooked them into a dish called 'Fish Leaping Over the Dragon Gate' through his superb food skills. The angry man and the others ate to their heart's content.
After enjoying the delicious food, Gu Zheng and the others rested for a night at the Star Ruins Mountain. Then, they set off for the Poisonous Swamp again.
Using the 'Meteor Overtakes the Moon' to move forward, Gu Zheng and the others didn't take much time to reach the border of the Poisonous Swamp.
Due to the special environment of the Poisonous Swamp, they couldn't travel quickly. Therefore, Gu Zheng and the others had to slow down. It was estimated that it would take them one and a half months to reach their destination in the depths of the Poisonous Swamp.
The last time they came to the Poisonous Swamp, they were aimlessly looking for opportunities. Along the way, they just casually picked up any ingredients they saw. For this trip to the Poisonous Swamp, Gu Zheng had a clear goal and direction. Therefore, he almost didn't stop along the way.
Unknowingly, half a month had passed. Gu Zheng and the others arrived at the border of the Poisonous Swamp's periphery and the depths.
It was also a misty green world, but the color in the depths was obviously more intense than the periphery. Therefore, it formed a sharp contrast. Apart from that, the space in the depths was more unstable. If it was said that it was not easy for spatial cracks to appear in the periphery, then the chances of spatial cracks appearing in the depths were much higher.
The Poisonous Swamp was divided into three parts: the periphery, the depths, and the core. The depths were the largest, the periphery second, and the core was the smallest. Not to mention the time needed to enter the core from the depths, Gu Zheng and the others still needed to travel for a month to reach their destination from the border to the depths.
In the depths of the Poisonous Swamp.
A barrier formed by demonic energy propped up the swamp mud, causing a huge space to appear in the swamp.
Specks of light floated in the space. Even though there was a thick layer of swamp mud above them, the light here didn't seem dark at all.
The Flood Dragon King was busy in the space, using all kinds of demonic techniques. He looked like a middle-aged man, more dignified than the Centipede King, and emitted a cold aura from his body.
"Bam bam bam …"
A knocking sound came from the demonic energy barrier. The Flood Dragon King waved his hand without turning back, and the demonic energy barrier's color faded. A two-headed bird that looked a bit like a phoenix flew through the fading barrier.
The Flood Dragon King flicked his finger, and two specks of light flew toward the bird.
The bird's two heads pecked at the specks of light, and then it let out a cheerful cry.
"Report!" The Flood Dragon King said lightly.
"Whoosh!"
The bird in the air let out a cry, and the light from its four eyes converged in the air to form an image.
In the image, a man and a woman were flying in the swamp. The man was Gu Zheng, and the woman was Meow Meow.
After seeing the image transmitted by the bird, the Flood Dragon King frowned slightly and said, "Ning Cui, do they have the aura of the Mud Spirit?"
The Mud Spirit was killed, and the teleportation immortal array in its body was affected, so the Flood Dragon King naturally had to investigate.
The Flood Dragon King obtained the aura of Gu Zheng and the others through demonic techniques in the Mud Spirit's body. Ning Cui, who was sent by him to patrol the depths of the Poisonous Swamp, naturally understood the aura of Gu Zheng and the others.
"Whoosh whoosh …"
Ning Cui's two heads chirped at the same time, and her head nodded repeatedly.
After getting the answer from Ning Cui's reaction, the Flood Dragon King sneered, "To be able to kill the Mud Spirit and the Centipede King, let me see what kind of means you have!"
