I don’t know how long it has been, hundreds, thousands, ten thousand years.
The scroll originally hung on the wall flickered with light, and as the extremely strong light suddenly illuminated the surroundings, it suddenly darkened, and a figure fell from above and lay on the ground.
"Huhu"
Gu Zheng felt that his heart was beating very fast, as if it was about to explode, and his whole body was soaked with cold.
It seemed as if I had had a long dream, in which countless demons and ghosts were attacking me.
These little ghosts are just ordinary wandering ghosts. In the past, they could wipe out their opponents in half a breath, but now they find that they are already as weak as ordinary people.
In desperation, he could only run away and find a way to leave here. In fact, he didn't know why he came here, but more and more ghosts appeared, squeezing his space.
When I was finally desperate, a green barrier suddenly appeared from the sky, and that was Xiaoying's breath.
Not only did he protect himself, but he also emitted a little bit of green light and began to actively eliminate those fools, giving him a moment of respite.
I don't know how long it took, but Gu Zheng seemed to have lost the concept of time inside. Just when he was about to wipe out all the ghosts, the whole land suddenly moved. The next moment, Gu Zheng felt that his body was empty, and he fell towards the abyss below.
.
Then he looked at the building above his head and felt the coolness behind him, waking up from the endless nightmare.
After a long while, Gu Zheng woke up from the confusion and seemed to understand what happened.
He remembered that when he came back, he was attacked by Hei Kun, and then he fell into a coma and didn't wake up until now.
Gu Zheng felt that there didn't seem to be any traces of injury on his body, and it seemed that the injuries were almost healed, or even stronger.
Feeling the continuous strength in his body, Gu Zheng was stunned. He stretched out his hand and looked at him with some disbelief.
He had advanced to Da Luo without even knowing it. He thought that he would at least have to work hard.
But as I thought about my own training these days, I felt like it was a natural progression. I had been preparing to retreat and break through.
With the power of the Butian Pill, there is a high probability that I will be able to break through it in one breath. Even if I don't use the Red Soul Pill, I am confident that I can do it.
But what I never expected was that Xiaoying apparently made a breakthrough unknowingly while she was healing herself.
There were no earth-shattering sights or extremely difficult obstacles. With the endless spiritual energy around him, he arrived at the early stage of Daluo smoothly.
After half a cup of tea, Gu Zheng calmed down his mood and advanced to the Great Luo. He finally stood a corner in this ancient world. In other words, he truly stood at the top, but he was still separated from his goal by stars.
The sea, in other words, I can finally take that step and move forward.
Gu Zheng looked around. Some light dust fell on the ground. It seemed that no one had come for a while. In one corner, the core magic circle that maintained the place had exploded. It seemed that it had just been damaged.
Shocked from Xiaoying's paintings.
"Xiaoying, Xiaoying!" Gu Zheng waved to the scroll and shouted.
Xiaoying's body turned into a ball of light and rushed out of it. She bowed to Gu Zhengyingying in mid-air and said crisply.
"Master!"
"What's wrong with you?" Seeing Xiaoying's face full of fatigue, and even the lantern on her palm was dim, Gu Zheng asked in surprise.
"It's just a bit too much. I have been healing the injuries in your body for thousands of years. I just need to rest a little for a while." Xiaoying's voice sounded a little hoarse, but she still briefly told what happened before.
.
"So it turns out that eight thousand years have passed. It's been such a long time." Gu Zheng looked dazed for a while. He really didn't expect that eight thousand years had passed in the blink of an eye.
But if you think about it carefully, it seems that no major events have happened in the prehistoric period at this time.
For the entire prehistoric period, there does not seem to be much difference between eight thousand years and eight days.
"Young master, your injury is not completely healed yet. Do you want me to help you treat it? It will probably be completely healed in another hundred years." Xiaoying slowly floated in the air and looked at Gu Zheng, stunned on the spot.
Not sure what he was thinking, he said with some confusion.
"No need, that little bit of residue won't do any harm to me and won't spread. You go back and rest first. You're so tired. I'll call you if you need anything." Gu Zheng felt the inside of his body and found that it was very deep.
The place still exists there, but it seems that I can't do anything to the other party, but I can't continue to spread out, so I said.
This injury does not affect me at all, just like a small cut in the hand of an ordinary person, it is insignificant.
"Well, then I'll go back and rest first." Xiaoying didn't force it. In fact, she was already very tired and her whole body began to sway.
"Wait, I'll give you this, just swallow it when you rest." Gu Zheng handed over a Red Soul Pill. It seemed like a waste of money to give it to her, but Gu Zheng didn't need it, so he didn't care.
What's more, the other party is entrusted to me and can be considered as one of my own.
Xiaoying didn't say anything here, she just continued to speak, turned into a ball of green light and rushed into the painting, and quietly started to meditate on the grass.
When Gu Zheng stretched out his hand, the scroll rolled into a ball again and was put away by Gu Zheng.
It seemed that nothing was missing from his whole body, so Gu Zheng walked up slowly, wanting to see where he was and what changes had occurred in the past few thousand years.
In just a few long steps, Gu Zheng had already reached the spacious platform above. There was a towering tower next to it, with Gu Zheng's familiar divine dragon cover floating on it. However, at this time, there was a golden light blooming on it, reaching far away.
The place just fell.
Passing by, within a radius of a thousand miles, six huge cities were all shrouded, and they seemed to be defending something.
Especially the rising and falling murmurs below. As soon as Gu Zheng came out, he felt that there was a huge crowd below. When he walked to the edge and looked down, Gu Zheng was already stunned. On several wide streets nearby, there were already
Countless people were kneeling in a dense crowd, whispering piously to the giant tower in front of them.
When Gu Zheng listened carefully, it seemed to be the most basic incantation of the power of incense, but something was missing. It seemed that the most important foundation-building and god-refining spell had been removed, leaving only those gorgeous words in it.
When Gu Zheng was looking around, suddenly the person at the front looked up. Although he couldn't see Gu Zheng behind, he still saw a figure above. His face couldn't help but reveal a look of ecstasy, and then he shouted even louder.
.
Soon everyone below looked up and looked at the figure above. They all prostrated themselves on the ground and shouted more piously.
Gu Zheng looked at some people below looking feverishly at the top, feeling as if the whole city was boiling.
However, the look in his eyes full of hope still made Gu Zheng stunned. His consciousness quickly looked around and understood something.
He turned around and walked towards the back, disappearing above.
Before the people below could react, the door below, which had been closed all year round, suddenly opened.
The first one was wearing a black brocade robe with rare birds and beasts embroidered on it. He looked very powerful. Upon seeing this, he immediately climbed down from below and walked towards the door.
As for the others, they just looked up in envy, but did not follow. Seeing the door closing again, they felt a little hopeful.
In the empty hall at the bottom, Gu Zheng watched a slightly fat man walk in. His breath was strong and he walked steadily. He was a human being with the cultivation level of a mid-level immortal.
"The sinner pays homage to the Immortal!" As soon as the man came in, he immediately knelt down to Gu Zheng, but as if he was kneeling, a soft force held him tightly, making him half-suspended in the air, unable to kneel down.
.
"Get up, what's going on now?" Gu Zheng looked at the other party and asked directly.
"I am the city lord of this generation of Tiansheng City, Hai Tiantao!" Hai Tiantao stood up immediately and introduced himself before saying.
"Shangxian, now our country of Yunmeng is in danger, please help us."
"Don't worry, tell me from the beginning, starting from the establishment of this first city." Gu Zheng had already seen the outside and saw that there was no danger, so he was ready to inquire about this place in detail.
Gu Zheng listened carefully to the other party's words, and then he realized that all of this was the city built by the people who fled there, and it had developed into a small country with a strong army.
In theory, the leader here is the nominal Xingba and others, but after two thousand years since leaving here, Tiansheng City must be an immortal to become the city lord. In fact, the city lord of Tiansheng City is also the actual commander of the so-called Yunmeng Kingdom.
people.
However, they know that the star tyrant in the distant star tyrant is not missing. They have even asked here several times over the years, and they don't care about the name.
Everything was going fine. Unexpectedly, five years ago, it seemed that they had been noticed. Some people with cultivation skills disappeared frequently, which made people panic. Everyone said that monsters had seen them.
Later, we invited the retreat elders who were in charge here.
As a result, the elder left and never returned, which made everyone panic. You must know that he was an elder in the middle stage of Golden Immortal. He had been responsible for the delivery of materials below, as well as some other things.
As a result, he temporarily activated the Nine Dragon Shield above, turning it into a huge barrier that enveloped several cities.
This is a last resort. You must know that once it is opened, you can only go out but not in.
But later it was proved that his decisiveness was correct. In less than half a year, a person at the peak of Golden Immortal came here openly and informed the people in a carefree manner, saying that he wanted to hand over a painting, otherwise all the people here would be killed.
Buried with.
How did he know which painting was there, and even if he guessed it was in this tower, he couldn't get in.
Fortunately, the protection left by Xingba and the others was particularly strong. The enemy at the Golden Immortal Peak level bombarded them continuously for three days and three nights, but the shield did not even tremble.
Angrily, he left words, saying that he did not believe that this barrier could protect them for a lifetime until they handed over the scroll, otherwise they would come here every month.
From then on, he would come here every month, spend a day attacking the barrier, and take the opportunity to encourage the people inside to come out and surrender to him to avoid disaster.
Needless to say, there were quite a few people who were fooled and tricked out by the other party. It is not known whether they were killed or captured by the other party.
Under his strong management, he can control these things. The only thing is that the city's reserves are not enough.
The daily consumption of these six huge cities is astonishing. Even if they had stored enough supplies before, they are now unable to harvest at all, and all supplies are still visible to the naked eye. If they persist for a few years at most, they will end up without it.
Materials collapsed.
Suddenly there was a person who lived here, who was considered an older member, and had stayed here since the city was founded, and he suddenly put forward his own suggestions.
There is also a great deity in the tower, and the holy object they worship that can slightly make them physically stronger is the other party's object. He implores everyone to pray together, maybe it will be effective.
The result was that Guzheng came out only on the third day.
Hai Tiantao spoke very slowly and carefully, for fear of missing any details. Even Gu Zheng interrupted several times in the middle to explain everything here.
"I understand. The first thing to solve is the external problem." Gu Zheng nodded after hearing this. He could also feel the faint power of incense outside, but it was too light. It seemed that the plan was no longer being prepared below.
Gu Zheng took a look at the simple patterns at his feet, and some things left in some corners. He could tell that this should be a place for transferring supplies, but he didn't know how to contact the people below, nor how to open it.
However, all cities have enough reserves now, so there is no rush to contact the following.
The first thing that matters now is what happens to Mantian and the elders Hai Tiantao talks about now.
I felt his aura nearby, but I deliberately delayed the time and the other party hadn't appeared yet. Now the situation was different.
"You can inform everyone, don't worry. Next time the other party comes, you should let go of some people who want to surrender. I will follow him back to see where he comes from and deal with him in one go." Gu Zheng's calm eyes showed
There is no fluctuation at all, it seems to be just doing an insignificant thing.
"Okay, Immortal!" Hai Tiantao said happily. He couldn't see through the other person's cultivation, but judging from the other person's appearance, he must have enough confidence.
Gu Zheng watched the other party walk out, and returned to the top again. He watched the crowd below cheer continuously and gradually disperse. His eyes looked into the distance, and a sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth.
However, if the other party dares to harass you, then don't blame yourself for forgetting to read the almanac when you go out.
Although Hai Tiantao has issued the order and told everyone that there is a way to deal with the existence of the enemy, some still don't believe it and are even full of pessimism about this place.
The other party didn't let Gu Zheng wait much longer. Just seven days later, Gu Zheng, who was squinting slightly above, suddenly opened his eyes. A layer of vague fluctuations covered his body. The layer was completely different from that of Jinxian.
The smell of rules.
A small figure came to the top of Tiansheng City. The other person looked very confident. He was alone. No one here could do anything to him.
However, the entire face under the black robe was also mostly covered by the black mist, and only a pair of black eyes could be seen.
But for some reason, Gu Zheng looked at those eyes, as if he had seen them somewhere before, and the aura surrounding them was very similar to the black energy of the swamp. He wondered if the other party was a remnant left behind.
"You are still stubborn. Do you still want to come over there to save you? It's just wishful thinking. If I come here a few times at most, this barrier will not be able to protect you. I will see how you can resist when the time comes. I want you all to regret today.
Choice." The figure said very arrogantly.
Because Gu Zheng didn't use it to maintain the dragon cover, it still looked a bit broken and its spirituality was greatly lost. However, it still had no problem blocking several attacks from the opponent.
But he didn't answer him. The people below had all hid, and only some bold and hateful people looked up.
Gu Zheng, on the other hand, felt a little nervous. The other party was quite good at scaring people. Looking at his proficiency, he would probably threaten him every time he came.
As for whether it has any effect, I feel that there are some tides surging in the dark, and I know that some people still accept this trick. The longer time passes, the more panicked people become.
The people above did not expect a reaction from below. After finishing speaking, a large amount of black energy emerged from the hands, and soon enveloped all the cities above.
As the lightning and thunder thundered above, the opponent deliberately slowly unfolded the spell, and the thick arcs of lightning continued to emerge from the sky, stimulating the nerves of the ordinary people below.
"Click"
Only half an hour later, he saw that the atmosphere was almost complete. As he waved his palm downwards, a bright bolt of lightning instantly fell from the sky and the earth, even brightening the dim sky around him. The visual effect was very astonishing.
This thick silver lightning fell on the golden barrier. As the golden light flashed above, the powerful lightning shattered into countless black arcs and continued to spread towards the surrounding areas.
It felt like an egg hitting a stone. The stone didn't react at all, but the egg fell apart.
And this lightning was just the beginning. As this lightning shattered, the entire sky suddenly lit up, and the silver-white light made the earth seem to turn into daylight, which was extremely dazzling.
Immediately afterwards, accompanied by a scalp-numbing thunder, countless bolts of lightning fell from the sky. In the blink of an eye, the sky turned into a sea of lightning, falling endlessly.
If the barrier hadn't greatly weakened the outside sound, I'm afraid most of the people below would have been shocked to death by the sound. Even so, after seeing it many times, many people were still photographed by the power of this heaven and earth, with terror flashing in their eyes.
look.
The only consolation for them was that the golden barrier above still emitted a faint golden light. Facing such a terrifying attack, it was still the same as before, as if a high mountain was blocking their way, without causing any harm to the people below.
Gu Zheng looked at the shadow above. Even at this time, the opponent did not relax his vigilance at all. It seemed as if he was vigilant about some enemies hidden nearby. There was no flaw in his body.
However, in Gu Zheng's eyes at this time, whether he wanted to kill him or catch him alive, it was very easy. However, thinking about where the other party was hiding, there was still a lot of comfort from them all over the sky.
Gu Zheng's body moved and disappeared in the next moment.
