"Bang, bang, bang, bang …"
Explosions kept coming from underground. The Mysterious Ice Sect was built on the Eternal Mysterious Ice. Even with the protection of the Immortal Formation, the buildings began to collapse one by one.
No matter which side would win in the underground fight, it would not benefit the Brookwater Sect to stay. Therefore, the people of the Mysterious Ice Sect had already abandoned the sect and fled.
The underground fight was very fierce. It was the close combat that Gu Zheng had always wanted.
At first, Cold Wind Venerable was quite happy. With the help of the Eternal Mysterious Ice, close combat was his strength. However, when he really fought Gu Zheng in close combat, he found that he was no match for Gu Zheng at all!
In close combat, Cold Wind Venerable borrowed the power of the Eternal Mysterious Ice. The toughness of his ice armor was not inferior to that of a top immortal weapon. Even if it was damaged, it could be repaired in a very short time because it was in the Eternal Mysterious Ice.
However, Gu Zheng's Tang Mo was too sharp. It could cut an ordinary top immortal weapon in two strikes. Under the continuous attacks of Tang Mo, the ice armor on Cold Wind Venerable's body was already in a state of not being able to keep up with the supply! The huge hyena that was originally wrapped in ice armor had now shrunk by more than half.
In terms of defense, Cold Wind Venerable's destructive power was also very strong. With the help of the Eternal Mysterious Ice and in the form of a hyena, an ordinary late stage Sage-to-be could not bear the damage of his claws. Unfortunately, Gu Zheng's strength was not only the Five Elements Shield, but also the ability to absorb damage. This Divine Ability really made Cold Wind Venerable feel desperate.
At this point in the battle, Venerable Han Feng's thoughts had completely changed. He did not have extravagant hopes of killing Gu Zheng. He only hoped to escape with his life. However, his desire to escape was only his personal desire. Gu Zheng naturally did not agree to it, which caused his attempts to escape to fail time and time again.
Since the beginning of the battle, Gu Zheng had already exchanged blows with Venerable Han Feng over a hundred times, so the exhilaration in his heart had naturally declined. To him, it was time to end the battle.
"Bang …"
Accompanied by another loud sound, Gu Zheng pulled apart the distance between him and Venerable Cold Wind.
Venerable Han Feng, who had no desire to continue fighting, immediately disappeared under the layer of ice. He wanted to use this method to slip away.
The corners of Gu Zheng's mouth curled into a cold smile. Venerable Han Feng was truly at his wit's end. Even though he knew that this method was useless, he still seized the opportunity to use it again and again.
The power of the Dao caused ripples to appear in the air. Gu Zheng used the high-level control of the Dao of True Water to temporarily change the structure of the Ancient Mysterious Ice, causing Knight Cold Wind to run into a wall in the ice layer.
"Kacha …"
Under the continuous effect of the power of the Tao, a huge crack appeared in the solid Ancient Mysterious Ice. Once again, Master Han Feng was exposed to the air.
"Damn it!"
Venerable Cold Wind let out a strange cry. As he flew out from the crack, countless chunks of ice smashed towards Gu Zheng.
With the intention of ending the battle, Gu Zheng faced a similar situation and slashed out with an unusual saber. It contained all the energy he had absorbed from the battle with Venerable Han Feng.
As if it wanted to cut through everything, when Gu Zheng's saber slashed out, a large area of the already damaged Ancient Mysterious Ice cracked. The chunks of ice that were flying towards Gu Zheng were all turned to dust by the saber wind. Venerable Han Feng, who was in hyena form, widened his eyes. He didn't expect that the energy absorbed by Gu Zheng could be converted and used by Gu Zheng.
The hyena ran, but it couldn't escape the saber wind's lock. In the end, the saber wind ruthlessly struck its body.
"Bang …"
An unprecedentedly loud sound was heard. Although the hyena used the energy of the Ancient Mysterious Ice to resist Gu Zheng's domineering saber strike, it had still used the energy of the Ancient Mysterious Ice to its limit! The Ancient Mysterious Ice that carried the Mysterious Ice Gate completely exploded, turning into chunks of ice that fell like a meteor.
Without the energy of the Ancient Mysterious Ice to borrow, Venerable Han Feng transformed back into his human form. He and Gu Zheng weren't buried in the ruins. The two of them flew out into the sky.
"Pfft …"
Venerable Han Feng spat out a mouthful of blood and flew away like a meteor. Without the energy of the Ancient Mysterious Ice to use, and with the strong backlash, he was really done for.
"Die!"
Venerable Han Feng's escape was expected. Gu Zheng was naturally prepared for it. He threw out a five-colored light.
The five-colored light was even faster. It turned into a dazzling five-colored immortal lotus in the air. After catching up to Venerable Han Feng, it bloomed brightly on his body.
"Ah …"
As the flames rose, Venerable Han Feng's scream echoed in the snow-filled Fallen Ice Snowfield.
In the past, Gu Zheng could use the Five-Colored Immortal Lotus, but he couldn't stop the five-colored flames from disintegrating. Because of this, Gu Zheng lost the chance to search the souls of those who had been hit by the Five-Colored Immortal Lotus.
Now that Gu Zheng had gained elementary control of the seventh sense, his strength had increased in all aspects. He now understood how to control the five-colored flames.
Gu Zheng reached out and used the complete Dao of the Five Elements. The five-colored flames that were about to be extinguished by Venerable Han Feng were about to be extinguished. Gu Zheng pressed his hand on Venerable Han Feng's head and began to search his soul.
The only useful information Gu Zheng found from the soul-searching was that this guy was actually the junior brother of Fiend Exalted Woodfern!
Gu Zheng didn't know whether to laugh or cry at the fact that he'd killed another junior brother of Fiend Exalted Woodfern. However, even if Fiend Exalted Woodfern didn't come looking for trouble, Gu Zheng wouldn't be afraid of him since he wasn't afraid of Empress NvWa.
There were many good things in Venerable Han Feng's spatial immortal item. Other than the Meteoric Jade Spring Water, there were a few immortal items that were more valuable to Gu Zheng. Although Venerable Han Feng was a demonic cultivator, some of his immortal items weren't only usable by demonic cultivators. For example, the skull he'd taken out at the beginning of the battle had no problem being used by the angry man.
Gu Zheng let Meow Meow and the others out. Now that he'd obtained the Meteoric Jade Spring Water, he wanted to see if he could comprehend any of the mud spirit's abilities. It would be better to have someone to protect him during the process.
Gu Zheng poured out a bowl of Meteoric Jade Spring Water and placed the mud spirit's inner core in it.
Although the mud spirit's body was large, its inner core was only the size of a goose egg. When it touched the spring water, it immediately melted at a speed visible to the naked eye.
The jade-like inner core quickly melted and the clear spring water in the bowl turned into a bowl of noodle soup.
"Look at this bowl of soup too!" Gu Zheng had an idea.
No one knew whether or not one could comprehend the Mud Spirit's divine ability by turning the Mud Spirit's inner core into soup. But there was one thing that Gu Zheng knew. If he didn't comprehend it, the information contained in this bowl of soup would completely disappear after the time it took to brew a cup of tea! Since that was the case, it was better for everyone to try their luck together. No matter who could comprehend it, it would be better than wasting this opportunity.
Understanding Gu Zheng's thoughts, Die Ling, Meow Meow and the angry man didn't say anything. They all focused their attention on the swaying soup in the bowl.
Gu Zheng still didn't have a clue. He could only use his mind to look. The soup in the bowl swayed slightly, creating a hypnotic effect. Gu Zheng unknowingly entered a mysterious state.
He didn't know who he was or where he was. All Gu Zheng could feel was an endless darkness and a sticky feeling that made him very uncomfortable.
In fact, it wasn't just Gu Zheng who had entered a mysterious state. Die Ling and the other two also entered the same state. It wasn't that they were too lucky. It was just that when the information in the mud spirit's inner core was released, they were in the correct state to comprehend the information. However, entering the mysterious state could only be said to be a treasure trove of comprehension. Whether or not they could gain anything from this treasure trove depended on their own luck.
The endless darkness and the sticky feeling made them uncomfortable. Although everyone had forgotten who they were and what they were here to do, none of the things they could feel made them feel at ease. These feelings only brought about negative emotions such as depression, nervousness, anxiety and panic.
Everyone was different. Gu Zheng chose to walk forward, the angry man chose to walk left, Meow Meow chose to walk down, and Die Ling chose to walk up.
After walking for an unknown amount of time in this uncomfortable environment, just as Meow Meow was about to lose control, she was the first to see something different in the mysterious state.
The thing different from the darkness was a ball of light. It was very prominent in this environment, so Meow Meow was able to see her surroundings clearly and see that she was in the swamp.
Meow Meow's true form was a beast, and the Glutton Immortal had added the Galactic Jade Rabbit's bloodline into her veins. She had a unique advantage in certain aspects, and she instantly understood that she was in the mystical realm unleashed by the information of the Dao of Mud.
Unfortunately, sometimes understanding wasn't a good thing. Understanding meant thinking, and thinking made Meow Meow unable to move forward. She didn't know whether or not to approach the ball of light, nor did she know how to approach it. However, the mysterious state didn't give Meow Meow a chance to understand everything. The ball of light suddenly lit up, and there was nothing in Meow Meow's eyes other than the blinding light. When her vision recovered, she was already in the real world.
Looking at Gu Zheng and the others who had yet to leave the mysterious state, Meow Meow felt like crying.
Among the Daos displayed by the mud spirit, the Daos of Herculean Strength and Space were the most prominent. When Gu Zheng asked them to watch the soup together, Meow Meow had made a wish in her heart. If she was lucky enough to enter the mysterious state, she hoped to be able to comprehend the Dao of Space, even if it was the most basic one! After all, she was the only one who hadn't comprehended the Dao of Space among Die Ling, Meow Meow, and the angry man.
In the mysterious state, the angry man was the second person to notice something strange. The thing he noticed was also a ball of light. Due to his unique inner core, he also woke up when he saw the ball of light. However, the angry man's personality was different from Meow Meow's. He didn't think too much and rushed toward the ball of light.
When he rushed toward the ball of light, the angry man's vision changed. He was no longer in the swamp, but in a clean and bright world. He was looking at a man covered in blood lying in the swamp from the perspective of the mud spirit. That man was the centipede king.
The blood on the centipede king's body wasn't fresh, and his wounds had already healed. Before the angry man could observe him from the perspective of the mud spirit, he had already woken up.
"As expected, you still saved me."
The centipede king shook his head and smiled. The fighting spirit in his eyes slowly rose. "One who survives a great disaster is bound to have good fortune in the future! Since I didn't die this time, I will definitely rule the periphery of the poisonous swamp in the future! Are you willing to follow me? If you're willing to follow me, what's mine will be yours. I won't stop you from eating whatever you want to eat! "
"Chirp chirp!"
The mud spirit let out a strange cry. The angry man could feel that it was happy.
"Alright!"
The centipede king cheered, but it caused him to cough until he coughed up a mouthful of blood.
The moment he saw the centipede king cough up blood, the angry man suddenly had a thought. A large amount of information surged into his brain, and the scene in front of him shattered bit by bit.
When the angry man gained something in the Mystical Realm, Die Ling also saw something strange in the Mystical Realm.
Different from Meow Meow and the angry man, Die Ling was in a dark and sticky environment. Although she was affected by negative emotions, she didn't panic. The strange thing she saw wasn't a ball of light, but she felt that the darkness seemed to have reached its end. In an instant, she felt very refreshed. She also heard a man's voice.
"I don't expect you to have limitless potential in the future. I just hope that you can become a great help to me in the future."
When she heard the man's voice, Die Ling was completely awake. The man's voice was not unfamiliar to her. It was Di You's voice. Besides hearing Di You's voice, Die Ling also realized that she couldn't move. Facing such a strange situation, she didn't panic. Instead, her mind was working at lightning speed.
"Initially, when Master searched the Mud Spirit's soul, he thought that the Mud Spirit was a strange creature born naturally. However, as he went deeper into the poisonous swamp, Master understood that the Mud Spirit wasn't born naturally. It was a product of Di You's interference."
"Now, I can hear Di You's voice, but I can't move. Isn't this scene similar to the scene that Master taught me? Could it be that I'm using the Mud Spirit's senses to feel everything around me? Is the voice that I'm hearing now what Di You said when the Mud Spirit was born? "
"Yes, that must be it! When the Mud Spirit was born, it shouldn't have any memories. It doesn't have any memories, but to it, some things are actually hidden in the depths of its memories. If it wasn't for some special stimulation, it wouldn't have remembered! It should be like that. Otherwise, why didn't Master find this part when he searched its soul at the beginning? "
After understanding the situation in the depths, Die Ling couldn't help but feel excited. She felt that she was going to gain something in this Mystical Realm.
"In order for you to become my helper, I have to bestow you with a special ability. Otherwise, before you grow up, you will die in the mouths of those monsters."
Di You's voice sounded again. Die Ling felt as if her head was pierced by something. At the same time, some Mystical Realm information surged in.
Die Ling also gained something, but Gu Zheng still had nothing and was still in an unconscious state.
Gu Zheng's situation in the Mystical Realm could be said to be completely different from Die Ling and the others. When he first entered the Mystical Realm, he also had some negative emotions due to the environment. However, he had already obtained the control of the seventh sense. Under the premise that he was strengthened in all aspects, the so-called negative emotions quickly disappeared without a trace. As a result, even though Gu Zheng couldn't see anything, he still walked forward unhurriedly as if he was in a profound state.
The Mystical Realm this time wasn't like the time when Gu Zheng comprehended the Immortal Transformation Dao. That time, when he was about to use up all the time in the Mystical Realm, the feeling transmitted by the seventh sense gave him a sense of urgency. From there, he obtained the opportunity to comprehend the Dao. This time, although Gu Zheng still gained nothing, he was able to maintain his state of mind and walk for so long in such an environment. In fact, he had already satisfied the conditions to enter the Mud Spirit's Dao.
His vision suddenly lit up and Gu Zheng's perspective changed to the Mud Spirit's. However, he didn't wake up because of this. He only looked at what had happened to the Mud Spirit in an indifferent manner.
The scene was the periphery of the Rotten Poison Swamp. The time was when the Centipede King was leading it in the final battle to unify the periphery of the Rotten Poison Swamp.
The Mud Spirit and the Centipede King's opponent was a Mud Monster that was born in the swamp. It had a terrifying strength and an extraordinary ability to control mud. With a wave of its hand, it could create thousands of Mud Monsters that were one size smaller than it. In this final battle, the Mud Spirit and the Centipede King could only be considered a pyrrhic victory.
Gu Zheng finally woke up in the Centipede King's battle to unify the swamp. He was too familiar with this scene. When he searched the Mud Spirit's soul, he had lamented this tragic battle more than once.
When he first watched this battle in the Mud Spirit's memory, Gu Zheng didn't have any special feeling about comprehending the Dao. However, this time, when he watched it in the Mystical Realm, Gu Zheng's heart couldn't help but beat wildly. This was because the Mud Spirit and the Centipede King were able to turn the tables in this battle because the Mud Spirit had comprehended the Space Steal at the critical moment. It had stolen the source of the Mud Monster's power — its heart.
For Gu Zheng, replaying the scene in the Mystical Realm was no different from teaching the Dao to the Immortal Cultivators. He tried his best to calm down and focused his mind to wait for the moment to turn the tables.
The Mud Spirit was already heavily injured, and the Centipede King was still fighting the Mud Monster. The critical moment to turn the tables had arrived. Gu Zheng sensed the Mud Spirit's turbulent thoughts. However, Gu Zheng only sensed the Mud Spirit's turbulent thoughts. There was no information about the Dao in them at all!
Gu Zheng wanted to curse out loud. He had been itching to learn the Spatial Steal ability for a long time. He had finally gotten a chance to learn it, but it had disappeared without a sound.
"Whoosh!"
The Mud Spirit let out a sharp cry. Gu Zheng understood that it was going to use the Space Steal that it had comprehended to steal the Mud Monster's heart.
"No!"
Gu Zheng's heart trembled. If this was the opportunity to comprehend the Dao, then he had already missed it. The Mystical Realm should have ended because of this, but why was it still continuing?
Gu Zheng was overjoyed. He felt that the situation had taken a turn for the better!
The power of the Dao was visible to the naked eye. The Mud Monster that had lost its heart collapsed. A wave of information that belonged to the Dao of Space also crazily flooded into Gu Zheng's mind the moment the Mud Monster collapsed. He was so excited that he wanted to shout.
