Gu Zheng flew in the Scarred Canyon while the Weapon Spirit was in charge of scouting.
The time it took for a stick of incense to burn passed.
"The Immortal Formation that separates the swamp is very special. You don't have to worry that the Immortal Formation will suddenly lose its function and cause the swamp to return to its original state. Even if someone wants to turn off the Immortal Formation, there will be a process. At that time, I will definitely be able to detect the difference in advance. Moreover, the Immortal Formation that separates the swamp will not be turned off easily. The purpose of its existence is to allow the Mother Formation to smoothly communicate with the outside energy. If it is turned off, the Mother Formation will no longer be able to communicate with the outside energy! Once it is turned off, it will be very difficult to turn it on again. "
The Weapon Spirit told Gu Zheng some of the things she had discovered, which relieved Gu Zheng's original worries. Although he could move stealthily in the swamp, moving stealthily and fighting were two different concepts. If the Immortal Formation was turned off, he would have no choice but to fight in the swamp, then his strength would definitely decrease a lot! At that time, if he encountered a large number of enemies, then it would really be a very bad thing.
"This Immortal Formation belongs to the Outer Circle, right?" Gu Zheng asked.
"Of course."
The Weapon Spirit answered very proudly, and Gu Zheng smiled knowingly.
The Weapon Spirit's attainments in the Dao of Formations were much higher than Gu Zheng's. After deciding not to force the Weapon Spirit to cultivate, Gu Zheng handed over the things he had obtained about the Outer Circle to the Weapon Spirit to study.
By now, more than two months had passed since the Device Spirit had started researching those things. The results she had obtained were rather gratifying. At the very least, she was able to find some useful information about the huge Outer Circle Immortal Formation that could baffle Gu Zheng.
Moreover, Gu Zheng had also obtained a lot of things about the Outer Circle recently, especially after he killed the Centipede King and the Flood Dragon King. And these kinds of things were now all being studied by the Weapon Spirit.
"However, I am only analyzing with my understanding, so the information I obtained is definitely not comprehensive. Although it is not easy to turn off this Immortal Formation, it can adjust the central hub and trigger some variables that I am not sure about now, "the Weapon Spirit added.
Gu Zheng thought for a moment and said, "How difficult is it to destroy this immortal formation?"
Even though the artifact spirit had just said that she would definitely discover the immortal array closing in advance, she had also said that by adjusting the core of the immortal array, there would be some variables that she dared not be sure of. If they wanted to feel safe in such a place, they had to come up with countermeasures! Although Gu Zheng's temporary plan was to use Spatial Concealment to penetrate deeper, if he could destroy the immortal formation from the outside and force the enemy to face it head-on, it might not be a bad idea.
"It's not easy to destroy this immortal array. The easier way is to find the core of the immortal array. But to find the core of the immortal array, you have to go deeper," said the artifact spirit.
"Do you know where the Mother Array is?" Gu Zheng asked again.
"Keep moving forward. With your current speed, you'll reach the vicinity of the Mother Formation in about two hours. In addition, the center of the immortal formation is also there! "The artifact spirit said.
"I'll go down and take a look."
Gu Zheng lowered his flying altitude. Because he didn't know much about the immortal array, he didn't fly any lower to prevent himself from being unable to retreat in time if an accident happened. Now that he knew that the immortal array wouldn't close so easily, it was necessary to understand the situation in the deeper parts of the canyon.
The depth of the canyon wasn't particularly terrifying. It was only about seven thousand feet. Because the immortal array made both sides of the canyon emit a faint light, even at the bottom of the canyon, which was seven thousand feet deep, one's vision wasn't affected.
The bottom of the canyon was very flat. There was also an immortal array at work, so there was a layer of colorless barrier that isolated the swamp mud.
"The barrier at the bottom of the canyon was created by another immortal array. If it's only to prevent the swamp mud from rising, then its existence is redundant. Because just for this purpose, the previous immortal array could have played such a role," said the artifact spirit.
"You mean to say that this immortal array's existence doesn't want people to discover what it's hiding?" Gu Zheng asked.
"That should be the case," said the artifact spirit.
"Then what could it be that it doesn't want people to discover? The swamp mud has the characteristic of preventing people's Divine Telekinesis from probing! "Gu Zheng frowned.
"The swamp mud can't prevent people's Divine Telekinesis from probing, but it can't prevent people from entering and discovering it! But with the barrier, it's different. No matter what's down there, we won't be able to discover it, "said the artifact spirit.
"No matter what's down there, since Di You doesn't want people to discover it, it must be extraordinary."
Gu Zheng paused and asked, "Do you think the immortal array at the bottom of the canyon can be closed easily?"
"This can be closed quickly, so it's safer for you to approach the destination from a high altitude," answered the artifact spirit.
Another five minutes passed. Gu Zheng, who was flying, stopped and then leaned toward the side of the canyon.
The silence in the canyon was broken. The scene that appeared in Gu Zheng's vision was shocking. A few hundred demonic creatures were chasing four people!
Because they were still far away, Gu Zheng didn't know how powerful the few hundred demonic creatures were, but they shouldn't be too strong. However, there were three unusual existences among them. They should be the main reason why the four people were running for their lives.
Three unusual existences, two of them were Mud Spirits. However, these two Mud Spirits were not as big as the one that Gu Zheng had seen before. They were wandering in the void of the canyon, looking like two whales. As for the other unusual thing, it was an intact Sky Traversing Ship!
Gu Zheng had seen the four people who were being chased by the demonic creatures, Mud Spirits and Sky Traversing Ship at the Heavenly Court's banquet. They were Maitreya from the Buddhist Sect, Po Suo, Zhunti's Tribulation Passing disciple, and Feng Ming and Yang Liu, the two disciples of the Heavenly Dance Sage Fairy.
The battle was very intense. There were strange sounds in the void, and the light was bright. Because of this, the waves had been transmitted to Gu Zheng.
"These people don't seem to be in a good situation!"
Gu Zheng sneered. Seeing the people of the Buddhist Sect being besieged, his mood became better.
"Their situation is not good, and your situation is not optimistic either! There is a choice in front of you. If you don't fly out of this place quickly, the changes in the immortal formation will create a barrier at the top of the canyon. At that time, it will be difficult for you to leave! However, if you leave the canyon at this time, then the person controlling the central control will know that there is something that it can't see hidden in the canyon before, "the Device Spirit said seriously.
"Has the enemy adjusted the central control of the immortal formation?" Gu Zheng frowned.
"That's right. Otherwise, why don't those people who are being chased fly out of the canyon?" the Device Spirit said.
"The existence of the canyon is to allow the mother formation to communicate with the outside energy. If the upper part is sealed, will it affect its ability to communicate with the outside energy?" Gu Zheng asked again.
"It will. Therefore, even if the upper part of the canyon is sealed, it should be unsealed soon. However, the unsealing is based on the premise that the enemy is destroyed! "the Device Spirit said again.
"I'd better not go out! Otherwise, my previous' Space Concealment 'will be wasted, "Gu Zheng said.
"If you don't go out, it will be wasted. With so many enemies approaching you, even if they don't discover your existence, you can't hide from the Sky Traversing Ship's detection!"
The Device Spirit now knew more about things outside the circle than Gu Zheng. Her words were more authoritative.
"If that's the case, then I'd better go out!"
Gu Zheng began to fly towards the top of the canyon.
"It's too late. Due to the changes in the central control of the immortal formation, a barrier has already appeared above. Who asked you to not seize the time!" the Device Spirit complained.
"It's okay. Since I'm here, I'll just take it as it comes. Since I can't go out, then I'll just stay here and watch the show!"
Although he said it casually, Gu Zheng's heart was heavy. He really did not want to give up the 'Space Concealment' state.
"Device Spirit, other than the Sky Traversing Ship that can see through my 'Space Concealment', can the person controlling the central control of the immortal formation discover my existence?" Gu Zheng asked.
"They can't! Although this immortal formation is huge, it's not a surveillance immortal formation. Therefore, the person controlling the formation doesn't have 'eyes' everywhere. His only 'eyes' are the special waves above the canyon after the changes are made through the central hub. He can sense anything that goes out through the waves. "
The Device Spirit paused for a moment, then said, "Hurry up and fly back. As long as the Sky Traversing Ship does not come within a certain distance of you, your 'Space Concealment' state will still be effective!"
After hearing the Device Spirit's words, Gu Zheng immediately flew back the way he came. However, he did not fly for long before Gu Zheng stopped again.
"Well, so this is the variable caused by the change in the central control. It seems that you have no choice but to face those enemies."
The Device Spirit did not expect that a barrier would appear behind them. Now, Gu Zheng was trapped in a huge rectangular space.
Gu Zheng licked his lips and hid by the side of the canyon. Since things had developed to this point, he just had to be ready to fight at any time.
"Ah …"
With a shrill scream, Fairy Willow, the disciple of the Heavenly Dancing Sage, was pierced by the light beam from the Sky Traversing Ship.
However, Fairy Willow's divine thought left her body and sought protection from her junior sister, Fairy Phoenix Cry.
"Whoosh …"
A strong suction force came from the mouth of a Mud Spirit. Before the divine thought could reach Fairy Phoenix Cry, it was swallowed into its stomach. Fairy Willow's divine thought carried the weakness of her three spiritual and seven physical souls after completely leaving her body. Coupled with the powerful digestive ability of the Mud Spirit, this time Fairy Willow had completely fallen.
A Sage-to-be in the middle stage had fallen under the siege of demons. It was really shocking! However, this was not the end of the matter. The overbearing light beam from the Sky Traversing Ship once again aimed at the disciple, Po Suo, who was undergoing the tribulation.
"Go!"
Maitreya, who was entangled by a Mud Spirit, pointed his finger. The kasaya on his body flew up and blocked the attack of the light beam from the Sky Traversing Ship for the injured Po Suo.
On the human side, the one with the highest cultivation was naturally Maitreya. As the future Buddha of Buddhism, his strength was equivalent to the late stage of the Sage-to-be. However, in such an environment, even if he had the strength of the late stage of the Sage-to-be, he could not do it! After all, the Mud Spirit was very powerful. The Sky Traversing Ship was an artifact that invaded the Untainted Land during the first Chaos Tribulation. Its strength was beyond doubt! What's more, hundreds of demons like minions were still eyeing covetously. They wanted to change the situation of the battle, but they were afraid that they were powerless.
"Go!"
Maitreya shouted. He, who had finally found the weak point of the barrier, pushed his palms up fiercely. He wanted to give Po Suo a chance to use the Jade Dragonfly.
As Maitreya pushed out his palms, a huge golden light beam was produced. There were countless phantoms of dragons and elephants in it, and it fiercely hit the barrier at the top.
"Bang …"
A loud noise came out in the air. The barrier was cracked by Maitreya's blow. Po Suo did not dare to hesitate and immediately crushed the Jade Dragonfly that could help her escape.
The precious Jade Dragonfly was crushed, but Po Suo could not escape because of it. Because the moment the barrier cracked, the light beam from the Sky Traversing Ship covered her like a net.
"Damn it!"
Maitreya shouted angrily. The 108 prayer beads hanging around his neck flew out, turned into a ball the size of a house, and smashed toward the Sky Traversing Ship in the air. He wanted to save Po Suo by attacking the Sky Traversing Ship.
Maitreya's prayer beads were a Buddhist artifact that had survived the first Chaos Tribulation. Its power was indeed very powerful. When the house-sized beads flew up, time seemed to be frozen. All the demons were fixed in the air, and the 108 beads whizzed past.
All the demons touched by the beads instantly turned into granular objects like sand sculptures. However, the two Mud Spirits flashed with black light, as if they were reflecting each other. They both broke free from the suppression of the beads and attacked Maitreya and Po Suo at the same time!
"Bang …"
Even though there was a protective golden light on the surface of his body, Maitreya was still sent flying by the Mud Spirit's tail. As for Po Suo, who was already injured, her situation was even more miserable. After being sent flying by the Mud Spirit's tail, she was really like an egg that had been thrown on a stone by someone! Moreover, because she was surrounded by the net of light of the Sky Traversing Ship, she didn't even have a chance to escape from her body with her divine consciousness. She couldn't be more dead!
"Amitabha!"
Po Suo's death made Maitreya wail. This time, he shouldered the mission of protecting Po Suo, but Po Suo died just like that. How could he go back and face the two Sect Masters?
No matter how miserable Maitreya's wail was, the situation was still going in a worse direction. The things in the air that had been fixed in the air moved again. After a flash of light at the bottom of the abyss, hundreds of demons rushed out from below.
"Ugh!"
Phoenix Cry Fairy cried out in pain. She was sent flying by a demon with a sledgehammer in its hand. Its strength was at the Demon Emperor realm.
"Forget it!"
Looking at Phoenix Cry Fairy who was like a meteor, Maitreya suddenly laughed.
"Ksitigarbha once said that if I don't go to hell, who will? This poor monk will fulfill your wish. I hope you can escape!"
As soon as Maitreya's voice fell, he put his palms together and laughed wildly. A dazzling golden light emitted from his body, and a powerful sealing force was produced.
As if his whole body was burning with golden flames, Maitreya's entire body was rapidly "volatilizing". The golden light produced by him formed a huge wall that separated the space.
The demons separated by the huge wall crazily hit the huge wall, but they couldn't shake the energy produced by Maitreya's sacrifice.
"Amitabha!"
"Amitabha!"
"Amitabha!"
In the space, the Buddhist chants kept ringing, as if the Buddhas of the Western Heaven were responding to the fall of the Future Buddha.
In the end, Maitreya had completely "volatilized". He, who had nothing left of his body, left Phoenix Cry Fairy with a golden wall. The wall had completely materialized, and it was covered with shining scriptures. Even if the other side was still being hit by the demons, the wall didn't move at all.
"Get lost!"
Phoenix Cry Fairy waved her sword, her white clothes stained with blood.
Although the golden wall had blocked the demons from before, the hundreds of demons that appeared later were not stopped by the golden wall. They were still chasing after the injured Phoenix Cry Fairy. However, without the existence of the Mud Spirit and the Heavenly Boat, Phoenix Cry Fairy wouldn't die under the siege of these demons. However, it was not easy for her to escape.
Gu Zheng was shocked. In a short period of time, three Sage-to-be had died in succession. Among them were the disciples who had received them and the Future Buddha of the Buddhist Sect. Such a loss was disastrous for the Buddhist Sect!
"Do you want to save her?" The Device Spirit asked.
Gu Zheng frowned. He didn't have a good impression of Phoenix Cry Fairy, and the interactions they had when fighting for the Star Ruins Mountain were not pleasant at all.
Gu Zheng was a little hesitant about whether he should save Phoenix Cry Fairy or not. However, another variable had appeared.
Phoenix Cry Fairy had already fled to a place not too far away from Gu Zheng. Her eyes suddenly lit up, and she looked at the place where Gu Zheng was hiding.
The next moment, Phoenix Cry Fairy waved her sleeve. Under the effect of the power of space, Gu Zheng, who was in the state of Space Concealment, was forced to reveal himself.
"Fellow Daoist Gu!"
Seeing that the person hiding was Gu Zheng, Phoenix Cry Fairy cried out in joy.
"Awoo …"
The demons chasing after Phoenix Cry Fairy also cried out in joy. They were happy to see a new enemy.
Gu Zheng frowned and glared at Phoenix Cry Fairy.
"Evil creature!"
The air rippled with Gu Zheng's shout. Under the effect of the power of death, the air suddenly became a dumpling-like spectacle.
Although there were more than three hundred demons chasing after Phoenix Cry Fairy, none of them were at the Demon Emperor Realm. They were doomed to die under Gu Zheng's Dao of Death!
"Wow!"
Phoenix Cry Fairy opened her eyes wide and cried out in surprise. She really did not expect that Gu Zheng's shout would have such power.
"Come in!"
Gu Zheng looked at Phoenix Cry Fairy fiercely, and at the same time, told the Primal Chaos Pagoda to allow outsiders to enter.
Phoenix Cry Fairy's eyes lit up. She did not expect that Gu Zheng would have an immortal artifact that could accommodate people. However, she did not dare hesitate and immediately flew towards the Primal Chaos Pagoda.
"Let's teach her a lesson!"
After Phoenix Cry Fairy entered the Primal Chaos Pagoda, Gu Zheng immediately transmitted his voice to Meow Meow and the angry man.
"This stinking woman!"
Gu Zheng, who had entered the state of Space Concealment again, could not help but curse Phoenix Cry Fairy.
Originally, he had hidden well, but in the end, he had been schemed against by Phoenix Cry Fairy. Fortunately, Gu Zheng was strong and instantly solved the trouble she brought. However, if he was not strong enough, then he would have been killed by Phoenix Cry Fairy. How could he not hate Phoenix Cry Fairy!
