When Gu Zheng returned to the Immortal Camp, the Sage Immortals in the Immortal Camp all came out to welcome him.
No one mentioned the result of the fight between Gu Zheng and Tathagata. However, Taiyi Zhenren and the rest's attitude towards Gu Zheng had changed. It was a kind of caution that they did not have when facing Tathagata.
Gu Zheng didn't feel too bad about this. After all, he was well aware of how powerful he was. However, the two senior sisters beside him enjoyed the feeling of Taiyi Zhenren and the rest being cautious.
"Senior Brother Taiyi, during the time we were away, did any other demons come out of the black hole?" Fairy Huan Yin asked.
"There were three times, but there weren't many of them. Their overall strength was not as strong as it was on the first day, so they did not bring any trouble to the Immortal Camp."
Taiyi Zhenren spoke to Fairy Huan Yin, but his eyes were focused on Gu Zheng's expression. He could not remember if Gu Zheng's eyes were as calm as they were now. However, this calmness gave him great pressure, causing him to panic.
"Regardless of whether they are a threat or not, we have to make a trip to the black hole as soon as possible. We have to block the black hole."
Gu Zheng also knew the purpose of Tathagata's visit. Now that Tathagata had died in his hands, he naturally had to shoulder the responsibility of doing what Tathagata should have done. Moreover, he still needed to enter the black hole to find Eldest Senior Brother Han Yue.
"Indeed, the sooner we settle the matter in the black hole, the better!"
Looking at Taiyi Zhenren, who was smiling apologetically at Gu Zheng but did not say anything, Fairy Xuan Yue could not help but feel angry. Gu Zheng could act like nothing was wrong, but she could not. When Ah Ni Lu and Fairy Xuan Yang wanted to deal with Gu Zheng, it was Taiyi Zhenren who kept her in the Immortal Camp with the excuse of deducing Han Yue's safety. Fortunately, Gu Zheng was not in trouble because of this. If Gu Zheng was in trouble because of this, she would definitely not let Taiyi Zhenren off.
"Senior Brother Taiyi, why do you keep looking at my junior brother? You are the commander of the Immortal Camp, you have to make arrangements for this matter! "Fairy Xuan Yue rolled her eyes.
"Junior Sister is right!" Perfected Taiyi smiled embarrassedly.
"Junior Brother Gu, I'll have to trouble you with this matter!" Perfected Taiyi said with a bitter face.
Gu Zheng originally didn't want to say anything about the past, but since his Senior Sister couldn't let go of the past, then as her Junior Brother, he naturally had to vent his anger for her.
"Senior Brother Taiyi, is there any scheme or conspiracy in this?" Gu Zheng said with a faint smile.
Everyone's gaze landed on Taiyi Zhenren's face. At this moment, he was extremely embarrassed.
"Junior Brother, I was wrong in the past. I hope you don't take it to heart. Similar things will never happen again!" Taiyi Zhenren smiled bitterly.
Although he did not say the details, everyone understood why Perfected Taiyi apologized. Moreover, for Perfected Taiyi to choose to apologize in public, it was enough to show his fear of Gu Zheng.
"Since Senior Brother Taiyi has said so, I'll bring people to take a look at the black hole later."
Gu Zheng didn't like to hold on to other people's weak points. Since Perfected Taiyi said that similar things would never happen again, then let the past be the past.
Although Gu Zheng didn't seem as overbearing as Tathagata, the atmosphere was still very oppressive. Gu Zheng didn't want to say anything more to them and quickly returned to his residence.
Not long after the crowd dispersed, a piece of news caused an uproar in the immortal camp. Taiyi Zhenren received news from the Heavenly Court that because Gu Zheng became the strongest person below the Sage Immortal Realm as a disciple of the Tribulation Transcendence Realm, the Battlefield of Opportunity would open in three months.
Originally, there were people in the Immortal Camp who thought that even if Gu Zheng had killed Tathagata, his strength would only be in the top two among the Saint Immortals. However, the news from the Heavenly Court undoubtedly proved that Gu Zheng was now the strongest person below the Saint Immortal Realm!
Not only was the Immortal Camp shocked by the opening of the Battlefield of Opportunity, but the entire Immortal Cultivation World was also shocked by this news. All Immortal Cultivators whose cultivation had reached the level of Daluo Jinxian would have the opportunity to enter the Battlefield of Opportunity in three months.
Gu Zheng also knew that the Battlefield of Opportunity would open in advance because of him and couldn't help but feel excited. The Dao Ancestor had personally said that he was the strongest person below the Saint Immortal Realm. This also gave him a more accurate understanding of his own height.
Originally, Gu Zheng planned to explore the outside world after the matters in the Immortal Camp were settled. However, the Battlefield of Opportunity would open in three months. His original plan might have to be changed because of this. He had already decided to settle the matters in the Immortal Camp as soon as possible and then go and see Gokusen.
Gu Zheng didn't plan to bring too many people to the Black Hole, so he only brought Fairy Xuan Yue with him.
In the beginning, there were two entrances to the outside world in the Black Hole. These two entrances corresponded to the outside world, and their strength wasn't much higher than that of the Untainted Land. The number of times the two sides had interacted with each other was countless. Therefore, they were in a relatively stable state. Basically, there wouldn't be too many changes.
The real reason why Han Yue brought people to the Black Hole was because there was another entrance to the outside world in the Black Hole, and the level of the outside world was higher than that of the Untainted Land.
Later on, because of Fairy Ling Long, eight more entrances to the outside world appeared in the Black Hole. Although Taiyi Zhenren and the others didn't know that this was Fairy Ling Long's doing, they had obtained some useful information by searching the souls of the demons outside the circle. Therefore, Gu Zheng didn't waste any time on finding the location of the entrance to the Black Hole. This was the information he already had.
This time, apart from repairing the entrance, Gu Zheng's purpose in coming to the Black Hole was to find Han Yue and the others.
Last time, Perfected Taiyi had held Fairy Xuan Yue back and prevented her from participating in the battle between Gu Zheng and Ah Ni Lu. He had done something useful. Through the relationship between Fairy Xuan Yue and Han Yue, he deduced that Han Yue and the others had entered the world outside the circle that was higher than the Untainted Land through the additional entrances that appeared in the Black Hole.
Before leaving, Gu Zheng asked Perfected Taiyi to deduce again. Han Yue and the others were still not in danger. Gu Zheng planned to repair the eight entrances in the Black Hole first before going to the world outside the circle to look for Han Yue. In any case, to Gu Zheng, who had mastered the high-level Dao of Space, repairing the Black Hole would not take too long.
After entering the Black Hole, Gu Zheng determined the location and immediately used Meteor Chasing Moon.
In a special environment like the Black Hole, spatial divine abilities that were originally useful would be affected to a certain extent. This was because the spatial structure of the Black Hole was special.
If Gu Zheng's control of the Dao of Space was still at the intermediate level, there would be a certain degree of danger when he used Meteor Chasing Moon in the Black Hole. Due to the special space and the speed being too fast, he might encounter spatial turbulence and spatial storms that could appear at any time.
However, Gu Zheng's control of the Dao of Space was now at the advanced level. His understanding of space was already very deep. This allowed him to know in advance about the spatial storms that were about to appear, greatly reducing the danger of traveling quickly.
After using Meteor Chasing Moon a few times, Gu Zheng arrived near the entrance of the first Black Hole.
It was about the size of a square. Looking at the world outside the circle through the entrance, one could see a vast ocean. The entrance of the Black Hole in such a special state did not have any suction force. Otherwise, the seawater would definitely be sucked into the Black Hole if it was so close to the surface of the sea.
Gu Zheng's heart stirred as a golden glimmer acted around the entrance. This was the scene of the power of the Dao activating in a special environment like the Black Hole.
Under the effect of Gu Zheng's power of the Dao, the entrance quickly began to close. It was estimated that in seven breaths of time, this place would be dark. However, just as the entrance was about to be sealed, a monster that looked like a shark but had a pair of wings of light suddenly rushed out of the sea and rushed toward the Black Hole.
The monster's strength was equivalent to Daluo Jinxian's level. It did not even see Gu Zheng in the Black Hole.
Gu Zheng flicked his finger, and a flame the size of a medicinal pill struck the monster. The monster immediately let out a pained cry, and its body burned with raging flames. After it fell into the sea, a large part of the sea was set ablaze.
After repairing the first entrance, Gu Zheng immediately used 'Meteor Chasing Moon' to head to the second entrance.
The entrances were about the same size and the time it took to repair them was about the same. During the repair process of the remaining entrances, not a single incident occurred. This made Fairy Xuan Yue, who was staying in the Chaos Tower, feel very bored. She originally thought that if she could meet a large number of monsters entering the Black Hole from the entrance, she could also fight side by side with Gu Zheng.
The entrances that needed to be repaired had been repaired. Gu Zheng then went to the last entrance and entered the world outside the circle where Han Yue was.
There were strange plants and strange rocks. The place where Gu Zheng entered the world outside the circle was a mountain stream at the bottom of two towering mountains.
Glancing at the Positioning Jade Talisman that had been used by Taiyi Zhenren, Gu Zheng was more or less relieved. There was only one red dot on the Positioning Jade Talisman, but it was as red as blood. This meant that Han Yue and the other three were in the same place.
Han Yue did not come to the Black Hole alone. She was accompanied by Laozi, Cyathea, Jieyin and Zhunti's disciples. Moreover, through the soul-searching of the monsters in this world, the Immortal Camp had obtained a lot of information about this world. Therefore, Gu Zheng concluded that Han Yue and the others were trapped in a sect called 'Wild Thunder Mountain' through the location of the red dot on the Positioning Jade Talisman.
Gu Zheng had saved Miaomiao and the angry man who were trapped in the world outside the circle. According to the information given by the Immortal Camp, the strength of this' Wild Thunder Mountain 'was similar to that of the butterfly man and the others. They were both overlords with several Sage-to-be existences.
Last time when Gu Zheng went to save Die Ling and the angry man, he still had a lot of worries in his heart. After all, it was also a higher plane than the Untainted Land. He was also worried that some of his actions might lead to some existences that were difficult to deal with. After all, he was an outsider. Once something happened, there might be some very powerful existences coming to deal with him.
However, the present was different from the past. Ever since he grasped high-level Spatial Dao, Gu Zheng's strength increased by more than just a little bit. Although the sect he was going to face this time was still an overlord, Gu Zheng had no worries about this trip.
The Great Daos were interconnected, and the Dao of Space was the supreme Great Dao of Taoism. Since he could become the first person below the Holy Immortal in the Untainted Land, he would not be bad in the world outside the circle! After all, even in the world outside the circle, even if it was a higher plane than the Untainted Land, the Power of Tao controlled by the Immortal Level was still extremely rare. The existences at the Holy Immortal Level would still not easily intervene in ordinary things. Therefore, he did not need to worry too much.
After using Meteor Chasing Moon twice, Gu Zheng came to a place where he could see 'Wild Thunder Mountain'.
The weather was gloomy, and thick dark clouds were swirling in the sky. Dense bolts of lightning fell from the clouds, and were all absorbed by a floating mountain top.
"Wild Thunder Mountain!" Gu Zheng said lightly.
"Junior Brother, let Senior Sister out for some fresh air. Senior Sister is suffocating!"
Since entering the black hole, Fairy Xuanyue had not left the Chaos Pagoda. Now that they were close to their destination, she could not help but want to come out and take a look.
"It's different from the Untainted Land!"
Fairy Xuanyue, who was let out by Gu Zheng, muttered to herself. She was feeling the energy in the air of this world and looking at the environment of this world. This was the first time she had entered the world outside the circle.
"Junior Brother, how do you plan to deal with Wild Thunder Mountain?" Fairy Xuanyue asked.
"If Senior Brother and the others are fine and the people of Wild Thunder Mountain are sensible, then everything will be easy to deal with. If not, then I will start a massacre." Gu Zheng smiled coldly.
"Start a massacre?" Fairy Xuanyue murmured.
If the demons from outside the circle entered the Untainted Land, it would not be a problem to kill as many of them as possible. Not only would it not cause bad karma, but it would also increase one's luck. However, if it was in the world outside the circle, excessive killing would increase one's bad karma! There were tens of thousands of demons from outside the circle in Wild Thunder Mountain. If Gu Zheng started a massacre, it would definitely cause the accumulation of bad karma.
"Senior Sister, you don't have to worry. When the time comes, you don't have to start a massacre." Gu Zheng understood Fairy Xuanyue's concerns.
"Junior Brother, could it be that killing Tathagata increased the evil aura in your heart?" Fairy Xuanyue asked worriedly.
"Senior Sister, you worry too much. I dared to start a massacre because when I had this thought in my mind, I discovered that I could actually make the Seventh Sense directly abandon the evil karma when killing those from outside the circle!" Gu Zheng said.
"Directly abandon it? Only when killing those from outside the circle? "Fairy Xuanyue's eyes widened.
"That's right. If you could directly abandon the evil karma under normal circumstances, then it would be terrible!"
Gu Zheng smiled. If he could do this under normal circumstances, then he would really not be affected by karma. He would not have to bear the consequences of his karma being weakened because of his evil karma.
"Even if you can only abandon the evil karma in this matter, it's still a very good ability. At least, ordinary people can only obtain the basic control of the Seventh Sense. They can't do it like Junior Brother! The reason why Junior Brother can do this should be related to your Seventh Sense being different from ordinary people, right? "Fairy Xuanyue said with a smile.
"That's indeed the case."
Gu Zheng's Seventh Sense was really different from ordinary people. Not only did it have the appearance and temperament of a human, but it also had the opportunity to become a Sage and the Seven Mysterious Power.
"Junior Brother, have you ever thought of using this advantage of yours to take the initiative to do something?" Fairy Xuanyue laughed.
Gu Zheng naturally understood the meaning of Fairy Xuanyue's words. After knowing that he could abandon the evil karma of killing those from outside the circle, Fairy Xuanyue wanted him to be a real resource robber.
"I'll say the same thing again. If they know what's good for them, everything will be fine. If they don't know what's good for them, I will naturally not let go of their resources when I start a massacre!" said Gu Zheng.
"Haha!"
Fairy Xuanyue laughed happily. "Junior Brother, you are still so kind. You really didn't increase your evil karma after killing Tathagata!"
Gu Zheng rolled his eyes at Fairy Xuanyue who was testing him. Then he murmured, "Dao is untraceable, but it is in everyone's heart. The demons outside the circle are violent by nature. Their invasion and plundering of the Untainted Land are part of their nature. They are following their path of growth. Compared to the demons outside the circle, we belong to the category of 'human' life. This kind of life is different from demons and animals. "
Fairy Xuanyue was a little stunned. She looked at Gu Zheng and said solemnly, "Junior Brother, Senior Sister has learned a lot. If Senior Sister can reach Junior Brother's height in the future, I will definitely not lose myself in greed!"
"Junior Brother, I heard you say that you saved Miss Die Ling from another world outside the circle. Are you going to use a similar method to save Senior Brother and the others?" Fairy Xuanyue asked.
"More or less! I want to go to the Wild Thunder Mountain to take a look. It would be best if I can save Senior Brother and the others directly. "
Gu Zheng was not afraid of any of the demons in the Wild Thunder Mountain. However, Han Yue was still in their hands. Therefore, he had to be careful in this matter.
"Junior Brother, then put me into the Primal Chaos Pagoda!"
Fairy Xuanyue really wanted to fight side by side with Gu Zheng. However, she also understood that this was not the time to fight side by side.
Gu Zheng put Fairy Xuanyue into the Primal Chaos Pagoda and flew towards the Wild Thunder Mountain in the state of 'hidden space'.
The Wild Thunder Mountain also had a defense similar to the Mountain Guarding Immortal Array. However, its protective barrier was very strange. It was covered with terrifying electric light. For those who were not at the level of Daluo Jinxian, not to mention breaking the array, even if they touched the electric light outside the barrier, they would be turned into ashes.
Previously, the Immortal Camp had captured the upper echelons of the Wild Thunder Mountain and searched their souls. They also knew the method to break the Mountain Guarding Array. However, there were many variables in the Mountain Guarding Array. To deal with different variables, the method to break it would naturally be different. Gu Zheng still needed to investigate and deduce to know which method was suitable.
After leaving the investigation and deduction to the Artifact Spirit, Gu Zheng sized up the Mountain Guarding Array of the Wild Thunder Mountain and the two demons standing in front of the mountain gate.
The two demons had fangs that were not too long. They stood upright and held weapons. They looked like two wild boars.
With his understanding of this world, Gu Zheng understood that this was still a high-level plane that was generally weaker than the Great Desolate Land in terms of intelligence. Just like the two wild boars standing in front of the gate. Their strength was already equivalent to that of a beginner cultivator. However, their intelligence might not even be as good as that of a seven-year-old child in the Great Desolate Land.
However, this was after all a higher level plane than the Great Desolate Land. The energy contained in the space was many times denser than that of the Great Desolate Land. The flow of time was also different from that of the Great Desolate Land. It was more advantageous for cultivation.
