After emerging from the black mist, the Soul-Eating Beast was actually so weak.
It's not that the opponent is weak, but that the opponent's aura is only at the late Golden Immortal stage, which is beyond Gu Zheng's expectation. Could it be that layer of black mist is the opponent's strongest state.
Gu Zheng was not sure whether the other party was deliberately showing weakness or it was just like that. As he thought about it, he flew towards the distance and soon came to a dilapidated village.
Looking at the messy village below, you can't tell anything different at all.
However, I felt that the other party's position was in this area. Although it used some method to block Gu Zheng's prying eyes, it could still vaguely know where the other party was.
Seeing that the other party still wanted to pretend to be dead, Gu Zheng stretched out his hand and flicked it, and a golden shield suddenly surrounded the vicinity to prevent the other party from looking for a chance to escape. Not only that, the Li Huan in Gu Zheng's hand had once again stimulated a trace of white light.
, shrouded in the wrist.
Feeling the warmth and softness in his body, Gu Zheng then swept down the sword energy one after another.
Anyway, there's no one down there, so I don't have to worry about anyone causing trouble.
Countless sword energy swept across the entire village wantonly, not leaving any suspicious spots untouched.
Perhaps the Soul-Eating Beast knew that it could no longer hide, so it exploded out of the ruins below, with a ferocious look on its face, and rushed towards Gu Zheng waving its long knife.
A huge black light burst out from the long sword, and before reaching Gu Zheng, the huge sword light had already swept over.
Faced with such a ferocious blow, Gu Zheng didn't even try to dodge. In the late Golden Immortal stage, he had nothing to fear and rushed straight towards the opponent.
"Qiang"
The extremely powerful sword light was blocked by Gu Zheng on the way, and then he took advantage of the situation to speed up. The black sword in his hand rushed directly towards the opponent and chopped off the ugly head in the air.
The soul-eating beast raised his long sword to block it, but was cut into two pieces by Gu Zheng's sharp black sword, and then cut him into two pieces along the head from beginning to end.
But Gu Zheng didn't feel happy at all. He didn't even see the entire soul-eating beast in front of him being divided into two parts. He turned around quickly, and a solid white flame condensed on his fist, and he quickly struck behind him.
.
"boom"
The soul-eating beast that had just revealed its figure had not even raised its weapon when it was shocked to find a fist appearing in front of its eyes, and was knocked away by the punch.
Its body was burning with large white flames, and the white flames soaring into the sky were melting its body.
The soul-eating beast was struggling in severe pain, and large clouds of black energy kept coming out of its body, but without exception, it was evaporated as soon as it came out.
Gu Zheng watched the opponent's last struggle with cold eyes. In less than a stick of incense, the soul-eating beast had melted into a ball of black gas, floating in the air. The white flames outside were still burning, but there was nothing left to burn.
.
Gu Zheng took out the purple crystal core, then stepped forward and pierced the black energy with a sword.
Countless black mist continuously poured out from inside and disappeared into the air.
The purple crystal core in his hand also shone slightly. A few streaks of yellow mist were sucked out of the black ball and entered the purple crystal core. Then the crystal core became silent again.
Gu Zheng looked at the purple crystal core that had not changed at all, with some confusion on his face. This soul-eating beast died like this. You must know that he had prepared a counterattack before the opponent's death, but after the opponent was broken by him, he
Almost lost the ability to resist.
But now the other party has completely disappeared, and the mark he left in the other party's body has also disappeared. This cannot be faked.
After taking another look at this place, Gu Zheng's figure disappeared from the sky and flew towards the place where Xiaohou and the others were hiding.
The little monkey and the old bird below were standing in the hall with anxious faces. They clearly felt the huge vibration just now, but they did not dare to go out to observe. After comforting everyone below, they could only continue anxiously.
Wait here.
It has been quiet for a long time now, which makes the old bird even more anxious. The torture makes him want to rush out without asking.
"Old bird, please stop wandering around. My head is dizzy. Although I am also anxious, you have to believe Mr. Gu." The little monkey comforted him from the side.
"I also want to believe it, but there has been no movement for such a long time. I'm afraid that something unexpected has happened to Mr. Gu." Lao Niao said pessimistically.
"Impossible!" After hearing what the old bird said, the little monkey immediately retorted.
"You will have confidence in Mr. Gu then! I don't have any confidence at all. After all, the opponent is too strong, so strong that I don't even have the courage to face him." The old bird mocked, still looking at the mouth of the well.
As soon as he finished speaking, a figure fell down from above. The old bird's heart tightened, and then he realized that the figure was Gu Zheng. Although he was exhausted, he returned obviously safely. Doesn't this mean that the soul-eating beast has already
died.
"Little monkey, your guess is very accurate. Mr. Gu is indeed fine. Has the soul-eating beast been eliminated?" Old Bird excitedly walked towards Gu Zheng and said with joy.
"Of course, you don't even look at who I am. How can you take a mere soul-eating beast seriously? What were you just saying? You look sad." Although the process was a bit difficult, Gu Zheng still pretended to be relaxed.
said.
"Great! Great! Just now, Little Monkey and I were discussing your safety, but Little Monkey believed you and directly concluded that you are fine." The old bird was so excited that he couldn't control himself, so he said briefly.
"Master Gu, I knew you could do it." The little monkey here was equally excited and came over and congratulated Gu Zheng.
"Master Gu, you must be tired. Take a rest quickly. Since the soul-eating beast is dead, there is no danger." The old bird looked at Gu Zheng and said with a tired look on his face.
"That's okay. Old bird, you'd better inform everyone that we will move out after a while, and then take you out first, and then let people remove the restrictions here." Gu Zheng shook his head, and instead gave orders to the old bird.
road.
"You are right, this good news should be known to everyone." Upon hearing this, the old bird immediately agreed, then stretched out his hand and began to inform everyone one by one.
On the one hand, it is better for everyone to go out and camp outside than here. On the other hand, it also cheers up everyone's hearts. After all, many people here have long been desperate. They just survive instinctively. If it lasts for a period of time, they can change.
A walking corpse.
Seeing waves of cheers coming from the cave, many people shouted wildly and rushed out one after another, constantly asking if it was true. They became even more excited until they were confirmed again and again, and some people even started crying.
Gu Zheng also showed a happy smile.
"Master Gu, how did you kill the soul-eating beast? I'm really curious! You know he killed so many of us." The little monkey said with admiration.
"Actually, it's very simple. Even if the Soul-Eating Beast is so powerful, it still has weaknesses. You know that after dark, there will be huge noises, right?" Gu Zheng chuckled lightly and started talking to the other party indifferently.
"Yes, isn't that the Soul-Eating Beast going crazy? We don't even see it." The little monkey said truthfully, and then became a little confused.
"Of course not, it was just to break out. Of course, how could he, a little soul-eating beast, break out here? At that time, he was weak, so he just needed to find the other party!" Gu Zheng said faintly.
"I understand. You went out not only to dispel his vigilance, but also left a mark on it, and then waited until the other person hid before finding and killing him. Mr. Gu, you are really amazing!
You really kill two birds with one stone." The little monkey here simply worshiped him and immediately told him the meaning of what Gu Zheng did.
"Yes, it seems that you are really smart, little monkey! You know exactly how I do this, as if you have seen it with your own eyes." Gu Zheng admired.
"You'd better give me some advice, Mr. Gu, otherwise I wouldn't be able to think clearly about the meaning." Little Monkey's face turned a little red and he said modestly.
"What are you two talking about? You are so happy. By the way, little monkey, go and keep those people in discipline. I'll go get something from my room." The old bird came back and watched Gu Zheng talking and laughing, and he did the same.
smiled.
"Okay, I'll go now. I can finally go back." The little monkey stood up and said with a smile on his face, and walked inside.
But just after taking two steps, I saw the old bird's happy face filled with panic, pointing behind him, as if he wanted to say something.
The little monkey was confused. As soon as he turned his head, he saw a black sword coming into his eyes, and then it was inserted into his head the next moment, and his eyes fell into darkness.
There was a "bang" sound.
The little monkey's head exploded into pieces like a watermelon, and red and white things splashed out. The headless body fell to the ground with a crash, and a large amount of blood came out of it, dyeing the surrounding area red.
"Little bird!" The old bird shouted with splitting eyes when he saw this situation. At the same time, he pulled out his weapon and pointed at Gu Zheng and shouted.
"Soul-Eating Beast!"
The sudden change made the demons a little dumbfounded, but they quickly came to their senses and shrank back.
They didn't expect that the other party would break into their originally safe place, and they would have no way to escape.
"Wait a minute and listen to me first, okay?" Gu Zheng stood opposite, spread his hands and said to Lao Niao.
"What else are you going to do! You killed Mr. Gu, and you even turned into him to deceive us, and even killed the little monkey. I will fight you!" Old Bird's eyes were red, and he roared at Gu Zheng.
Dao, I haven’t heard Gu Zheng’s explanation at all.
Xiaoniao and his brother of many years died in front of his eyes, which instantly made him lose his mind.
As soon as he finished speaking, he rushed forward brandishing his weapon.
However, with his unorganized methods, after just a few rounds, the weapon in his hand was knocked to the ground by Gu Zheng, and his whole body was pressed to the ground and unable to move.
The person couldn't move, but he could struggle desperately and still shouted crazily.
"Soul-Eating Beast, I'll fight for you!"
It's a pity that his whole body was restrained, and the magic power in his body was also blocked. He didn't even have a chance to self-destruct, so he could only struggle in vain.
Gu Zheng looked at the other party and simply knocked him out, which made him feel calmer.
At this moment, while Gu Zheng was knocking the old bird unconscious, a black light suddenly appeared from the corpse and took the opportunity to rush towards the outside of the well mouth.
However, Gu Zheng ignored him. After completing the movements in his hands, he slowly turned around.
At the entrance to the well, a mass of black air has been surrounded by a mass of purple light. On top of it, a purple crystal core is shining, firmly imprisoning the mass of black air, and even most of the cave is illuminated.
into purple.
The black energy struggled desperately in the air, but under the purple light, like a child, it could not escape at all, and was even pulled into the purple crystal core little by little.
On the way back, Gu Zheng was thinking about the Soul-Eating Beast's last move, which seemed a little weird. Even if the opponent was in a weak state, it was too easy.
Gu Zheng admitted that the opponent's illusion skills were rare in his life, and the opponent's strength was also super strong. If it were a head-on confrontation, it would be difficult for him to win.
But at the end, the other party's counterattack was like a joke, which made him a little suspicious.
I was sure of defeating the opponent, and I was even prepared to be seriously injured, but it ended suddenly, and it was so easy that it was unbelievable.
I thought carefully along the way, and then I suddenly understood the other party's purpose, and then I hurried back. The problem must have appeared on both of them.
As expected, this little monkey was the final body of the Soul-Eating Beast.
Everything has been abandoned, even the cultivation level and injuries are exactly the same.
After thinking about it carefully, I was afraid that when I came here, I was plotted by the other party. Even though I was severely injured by him before, it seemed that it was a trap set by me because of my own complacency, but I didn't expect that the other party had already planned it.
Including this time, he broke through the golden shield and left himself in a severely injured and weak state.
The ultimate goal is to leave this world with your own token. All previous actions are all paving the way for the last moment.
Even if you can't break free from the illusion, I'm afraid the other party will deliberately create a loophole to let you escape.
Because only you can open that token.
Otherwise, it can destroy several ancestral gods, but it can be killed so easily by itself, and it has no means at all?
What a powerful scheming person. If I hadn't thought about it more, I might have fallen into the other party's trap.
Looking at the black mist, it finally failed to escape the attraction of the crystal core and was eventually sucked in.
Gu Zheng made a casual move, and the crystal core slowly floated down from the well mouth and fell into his palm.
Condensed with this crystal core, it does not want to dim again at this time. Instead, it flashes very regularly. The pure light is very comfortable, and the black mist does not stain it with any color.
Gu Zheng sighed and wanted to put the crystal core away, but was shocked to find that it could no longer be put away. Maybe it had something to do with absorbing the soul of the soul-eating beast. He simply stopped asking it and let it stay in the air first, heading inside.
He strode over.
When those monsters saw Gu Zheng coming, they screamed in fright. Some brave people tried to attack Gu Zheng. Without exception, once they got close to Gu Zheng, they all rolled their eyes and passed out.
But in the eyes of others, these people are already dead, which makes people even more desperate.
In fact, Gu Zheng just caused the other party to cause trouble, but when he saw so many people panicking, he frowned and snorted, and suddenly everyone's ears rang like thunder, and the next moment everyone fainted.
Feeling that the world has become purer, Random Guzheng took out another green pill and crushed it directly in his hand. A sweet fragrance spread out in the air, which calmed everyone down and relaxed their tense minds.
one time.
A little closer to the inside is the little monkey's residence. One of them lives in front and the other lives in the back, so that no matter what happens, the people inside can be protected in time.
When I walked into Xiaohou's room, I saw that everything was empty and there was no sign of Xiaohou. This was beyond Gu Zheng's surprise.
Was he really killed by the Soul-Eating Beast?
Gu Zheng thought in his heart, but it was still unlikely. If he really died here, the old bird would not have no reaction at all. They had a relationship of hundreds of thousands of years and were as close as brothers. If something happened to anyone, he would naturally have a feeling in his heart.
vigilance.
With the attention that the Soul-Eating Beast takes, it will definitely not leave such obvious flaws.
After Gu Zheng looked around, he returned to the door again and looked around.
The left side is the end of the road, and the right side is the direction from which Gu Zheng came. The rooms next to them are all empty, with nothing out of the ordinary.
After a long while, Gu Zheng nodded in realization, and then walked directly towards the wall. When he touched the wall, a layer of ripples rose on the wall, and the next moment Gu Zheng's figure disappeared into the wall.
When Gu Zheng passed through the wall, he found a room with only one room inside. At a glance, he could see the unconscious little monkey lying on the ground.
At this time, the little monkey's condition was not very good. His face was dark and full of pain. His whole body was tied up with a bunch of black ropes, and there were waves of black energy running around his face.
Seeing this, Gu Zheng flicked his fingers, and the restraints on his body were loosened, and the little monkey was immediately rescued by Gu Zheng.
After swaying for an unknown amount of time, the old bird finally woke up and stared blankly at the sky. It took him a while to realize what he was doing.
Shouldn't he be dead?
Looking at the familiar bad surroundings, I realized that I was already lying in my room.
"Master Gu, it's all thanks to you this time, otherwise I would really be dead this time." A familiar voice came into Lao Niao's ears, and he was so excited that he immediately got up from the bed and walked outside.
"I can only blame you for being lucky. If it were later, it would be impossible for even the gods to save you!"
When Lao Niao walked out of the door of the room, he saw the dead little monkey talking and laughing with Gu Zheng. This familiar scene made him couldn't help but shout.
"Little monkey, danger!"
"Old bird, you finally woke up." After hearing the warning, the little bird turned around and said with a smile.
"No, aren't you dead? You damn soul-eating beast still wants to paralyze me." Lao Niao felt that all the demons had fallen into a coma, and his face changed and he said angrily again.
"Xiaoniao, explain to him, I'm going out first." Gu Zheng looked at all this and said helplessly.
"Don't worry, Mr. Gu." the little monkey said respectfully.
Gu Zhengdian nodded and jumped down from the dry well to the top.
At this time, the sky is still the same sky, but there is no trace of the Soul-eating Beast in this space, and the originally dark atmosphere has become somewhat sunny.
As soon as he came out, Gu Zheng felt something strange about the purple crystal core in his arms, so he quickly took it out.
The crystal core that had been silent now began to glow again, and as if there was some kind of guidance, the flashing speed was accelerating. Before Gu Zheng could study the reason, the crystal core was already too hot to hold.
hand and asked him to quickly put down the crystal core.
The unsupported crystal core did not fall to the ground, but slowly flew into the air.
At the same time, the golden shield that usually disappeared suddenly appeared in the sky, covering the entire sky.
Gu Zheng didn't know what was happening, so he could only watch from the sidelines.
