In the deepest part of the room, a small moan sounded. After sensing a familiar breath, even though I thought I was hallucinating, it had happened many times before, but I still couldn't help but come out from my mouth.
The entire body was dyed black, and the dark wind that kept blowing around made the whole body tremble continuously.
But at the heart, a golden light always protects the surroundings. No matter how bad the surrounding situation is, the black mist entrenched in the body cannot penetrate at all. As long as it gets close, it will be burned away by the golden light.
"Xiaoying?"
Standing in the distance, Gu Zheng looked at Xiaoying who was being tortured above and muttered to himself in disbelief.
"Sir, help me."
As if sensing Gu Zheng's words, the little head that was hanging down suddenly raised up and looked in the direction of Gu Zheng. In the two pairs of blood-red eyes, a trace of golden light was still trapped, but the golden light was still there.
It's almost invisible, smaller than the tip of a pin.
But the desire inside made the golden light flash continuously, wanting to break free from the shackles of the red sea of blood.
"Xiaoying!"
Gu Zheng suddenly strode forward, trying to rescue the other party.
And Xiaoying's little hand was raised tremblingly and stretched forward. The originally fleshy arm now looked like a skeleton arm, covered in skin and bones.
"You're so brave, you dare to spy on this place, you die!"
At this moment, in the space, a somewhat familiar roar suddenly came to mind.
Then Gu Zheng felt the strong wind rising around him, everything in front of him began to blur, and his whole body was pulled into a whirlpool and kept spinning.
"Xiaoying!"
As the world was spinning, Gu Zheng suddenly opened his eyes and sat up from the bed. His whole back was soaked with cold sweat, and his whole body felt extremely stiff, as if he had just been released from the frozen state.
"Master"
Xiaoying's shout could vaguely ring in my ears.
Above his head, a small black tower was constantly rotating, and large black lights continued to fall from the sky downwards, surrounding Gu Zheng. As he woke up, the black light above
also gradually
"Heita, tell me what's going on!"
Gu Zheng stood up from the bed, a stern look flashed in his eyes, and then looked at the black tower above his head that slowly stopped rotating, and said in a cold voice.
The black tower trembled, and then a black energy emerged from it, appearing in the air as what Gu Zheng saw at that time. Facing Gu Zheng's unkind gaze, he avoided his gaze and said.
"The goal in your heart is too terrifying, and it's easy for you to fall there, so I took advantage of the situation and helped you hide it."
Gu Zheng first came in not only to rescue Pan Xuan, but after learning about this place, he also knew that this was Wen Tianhou's place, and decided to rescue Xiaoying together.
But after coming out of the Black Tower, he only had one wish left, and that was to leave with Pan Xuan. As for Xiaoying, it seemed that he had completely forgotten about it.
If he had really found Pan Xuan before, I'm afraid Gu Zheng would have really left here with her.
Although he has a way to leave here, and the Black Tower can also do it, there is no way to get in. Once he gets out, he will not be able to get in. If that happens, he feels like he will go crazy.
Xiaoying had been insisting on waiting for her, but she left. The thought of this made her feel heartbroken.
After retrieving the information in his heart, Gu Zheng knew who was causing the trouble.
"I don't need you to make decisions about what I do. If we are different, then don't be together. I will send you to Gucheng later and let him help you find your way back."
Gu Zheng didn't care at all what the other party said, even if the other party might have paid a certain price to come to Xiaoying's side to some extent, this was not enough to calm the anger in Gu Zheng's heart.
"No! The other party's strength is so high. You were willing to die now. If you want to save her, even if you are ten times stronger now, you still can't be her opponent. I have been here for a long time and know how terrifying the other party is.
"When the woman saw Gu Zheng's resolute attitude, she immediately became anxious, turned around in the air, and stood in front of Gu Zheng.
"That's my business. Since you are afraid of death, just keep waiting. I will return the other half of control to you, and then you can hire someone else."
Gu Zheng was unmoved, waved his hand to smash the opponent's phantom, and then continued to walk forward.
After taking just one step, the black tower in the sky rotated and stood in front of him again.
Gu Zheng's eyes narrowed and his face became gloomy.
"What are you going to do? Don't think that I can't do anything to you, but I can seal you for tens of thousands of years and never be born again."
"Please listen to me. I know what I did was wrong before, but think about it. If you had gone there right after she came out, I'm afraid you would have died. You have to understand that even if you save her, you still need a sound strategy and you can't act rashly.
, I have a way here that can definitely help you." Heita said hurriedly.
"Isn't it too late to say it now? What I hate the most is that others deceive and conceal me." Gu Zheng stopped, still looking at the black tower in front of him coldly, and then continued to walk forward.
If it weren't for the fact that there was nothing he could do against the other party, now he would want to tear the other party apart. Now he doesn't want to hear the other party's explanation at all.
"You should listen to it. Although the other party did something wrong, it is still for your own good after all."
At this moment, Elder Gu's figure pushed the door in from outside and said to Gu Zheng.
She had been listening outside and probably knew something about it. In fact, the shielded consciousness was not entirely the fault of the Black Tower.
Because of Wen Tianhou's relationship, all those who care about Xiaoying's existence, as long as they are within the scope of the black prison, unless they specifically avoid people, will pay less attention to Xiaoying, that is to say, their existence will be diluted.
The black tower is just going along with the flow, otherwise it would not be able to cover it up at all.
What's more important is that at that time, if Gu Zheng had a strong hatred for Wen Tianhou, the other party would be able to sense it even if he didn't mention the other party's name, because this was the other party's base camp.
Elder Gu persuaded and slowly told Gu Zheng this.
"Elder Gu is right. Even if the other party is injured now, don't keep thinking about it. The other party's control here is far beyond everyone's understanding. Although the other party can't do anything to me, I can't do anything to him. I can only
Only by hiding in a place where he can't find it can he survive quietly."
When Heita heard Elder Gu trying to free herself, he nodded repeatedly because she was absolutely right.
After hearing this, Gu Zheng was not as angry as he was at first. Thinking about it carefully, if he really saved Xiaoying at that time, he would definitely be thinking about the other party. If so, he might really be noticed by the other party.
"From the minds of those demon souls, although I don't know much, I also know that the first person who appeared in this place was him. No one knows why this place appeared and was hidden under the underworld, but the other party's
The scary thing is that you also know the cultivation level. Fortunately, when we were up there, the other party was just a ray of consciousness, otherwise everyone would have died there."
Elder Gu saw some changes in Gu Zheng, and then said quickly.
Hearing this, Gu Zheng turned his head and still said coldly to Heita.
"I have saved the other party. You didn't say there is any way. If possible, I will forgive you this time, but next time, whether you are good to me or otherwise, don't forgive me."
"I know, I won't do it next time." Heita, who wanted to fight for the past, also softened at this time.
If Gu Zheng really sealed the other party, then it can really be said to be in despair, and it brought all this on itself. Even if it resents others, it cannot resent others.
"Then tell me."
Gu Zheng said calmly, and at the same time he and Elder Gu sat down at the table nearby.
The black tower turned around, took back the phantom, and then suspended it among them, and then said.
"That's right. This plan was only discovered after sneaking in there."
"Stop turning, you're dizzy."
Gu Zheng choked the opponent directly. Black Tower's spinning figure paused for a moment, then stopped spinning and stood directly in the air before continuing.
"Through the secret technique, I just discovered an amazing secret, that is, that person has been injured, and the injury is not serious. Although I don't know why, I know that the spiritual weapon on the other person is not on him, and the little girl has already
mix together."
"So, is that scene real? I really appeared there?"
Gu Zheng was interrupted by a sudden opening.
"Yes, it's just some kind of secret magic. Although the other party has seen through it, you have seen the other party, and the other party has also seen the appearance I transformed for you. They will not know the original appearance."
"I understand, keep talking." Gu Zheng clenched his fists under the table and said calmly.
At this time, he remembered the story from Gucheng that the master had approached Wen Tianhou. It seemed that it was the fight between them that caused Wen Tianhou's injury.
Elder Gu was aware of his little movements and knew his mood, so he didn't say anything more and Heita continued.
"Since the other party is injured, it doesn't matter, but since he has lost his accompanying spiritual weapon and is tied to that little girl, then this is our opportunity."
"When I was here, I was only a few days later than him. Even at that time, the opponent's cultivation level was not that high. However, with the appearance of those demon soul subordinates, his strength has only improved little by little."
"In the past, when he had spiritual weapons, he had spiritual weapons to protect him. Coupled with the virtual spirit formation he set up, this trick couldn't do anything at all. But now the opponent wants to combine the two weapons into one. While improving his own abilities, he also needs to
Great control over subordinates, this is our opportunity."
Heita said so eloquently, but Gu Zheng frowned. Although he knew that the other party said this just to make him understand, he didn't want to hear this nonsense.
"Tell the important point!"
"The key point is that now we can destroy the opponent's ethereal formation bit by bit on the periphery. The main formation is the four cities near the main city. They are connected together based on the nearby spiritual veins. As long as two of them are broken,
The other party's cultivation level will definitely drop by a notch." Heita said excitedly.
"If the opponent drops a level, doesn't it mean he is no longer a quasi-sage?" Gu Zheng felt that it was of no use. Is this a solution?
"But the opponent is injured. I didn't see any chance of winning before, but now I barely have half a chance. Of course, if you have a way to make the opponent's subordinates rebel and counterattack the opponent, then you can at least increase it by 10%. After all, for the demon souls of the same race,
, their damage cannot be defended, even he can't stop it. Without the support of those demon souls, his strength will be reduced a bit."
Heita paused for a moment before continuing.
"It's not bad. At least there is a way. You have to know that if the opponent is injured, even if he does not lose his cultivation, we have no chance of winning against the opponent." Elder Gu also said at the side.
Gu Zheng also knew that Gu Zheng was right. At least there was hope, which was better than the despair before.
"This is the only way. Other than that, you can find someone stronger than him now and kill him." Black Tower landed on the table and said the last sentence.
"You can't find it, Gu Zheng, don't be discouraged. Take it step by step and fight to the death. I will rescue the person you want to save." Elder Gu comforted him from the side.
"It's just a pity. Even if all my guards are manufactured, they will only have a scale of thousands at most, which is a drop in the bucket. And although I don't know how many the opponent's team actually has, they are still a little weak." Elder Gu sighed at the side.
"If I provide you with another source of energy, can you still create it?" Gu Zheng looked at Elder Gu and said.
"Did you say it's black water? That doesn't work. I've thought about it, but there is some special substance in it. I don't know what it is, but it prevents me from converting."
Elder Gu thought Gu Zheng was talking about black water. There was a lot of it. Although it was not stable, it was still relatively easy to obtain.
"No, where are you keeping that painting heart? I'll take you to see if you can use it." Gu Zheng stood up, held Heita in his arms, and said suddenly.
Pan Xuan wants to find her, but Xiaoying must save her.
At this time, I knew that if I wanted to save Xiaoying, I would definitely face Wen Tianhou, so I would first find Pan Xuan, send him away, and then face Wen Tianhou. After all, it would be too difficult to defeat the opponent, so I would go step by step.
Let's go, let's start by destroying the virtual spirit formation.
But before that, they need an army to help them. Otherwise, if they really face those endless demon souls, with their current strength, they may be wiped out by the opponent before they even arrive.
Therefore, he not only improves Elder Gu's strength, but also recruits useful people. The Gucheng side may not be too difficult, but the masters from the Soul Alliance must win over them. But he knows the true strength of the opponent.
How strong.
Not to mention the countless servants and ghosts, as well as the truly powerful ghost generals, if they really swarmed him, I might not be able to see them, and they would be smashed to pieces by their subordinates.
Therefore, we need reinforcements, the more the better. We must fight for all we can.
From what I eavesdropped on the conversation between Master Jin and Ma Nan, the demon soul seems to be focusing all its energy on the Soul Alliance now, as if it wants to take this opportunity to completely destroy the other party.
What the other party wants to do is what he has destroyed, and he also needs help from the Soul Alliance, and he also needs to find Pan Xuan, so he needs to end things here quickly and go to the Soul Alliance.
"I know you value her. I kept her alone and didn't do anything to her. I just waited for you." Elder Gu stood up and motioned for Gu Zheng to follow her out.
"Thanks!"
When walking out of this room, Gu Zheng said to Elder Gu seriously.
"What are you talking about? If it weren't for you, I would have died a long time ago, let alone you saved my life this time. You also know what my wish is." Elder Gu instead spoke seriously to Gu Zheng.
Gu Zheng smiled slightly, said nothing more, and then flew towards the distance under the leadership of Elder Gu.
As for when Elder Gu played a trick and made himself unconscious, he was not worried at all, otherwise he would not have been able to accept the trick calmly without any resistance.
In the cell specially set up by Elder Gu, it is said to be a cell, but it is actually an ordinary room with a simple barrier on the outside, and then it is left alone.
Although he could see his surroundings clearly, Hua Xin was completely in despair.
Originally, the other party caught him and wanted to ask him for information, but he also thought that he would rather die than surrender and say nothing.
But the other party left her alone for half a month, and no one came over during this period. If she hadn't seen the other party's figure occasionally showing up around her, she felt that she might have thought that she had been abandoned, and she would have to forcefully trap her to death.
it's here.
Not to mention a few years or more, in this short period of time, she felt that every day was like a year. You must know that although the Huahun clan is good at restraining others, they hate being restrained.
Now she feels that if the other party comes to ask, she can say anything. Anyway, the other party knows that there is nothing they can do, so how can she go in?
Don't laugh, just the elders of their clan can crush each other over and over again.
Thinking of this, her face was filled with pride, but in a blink of an eye her expression turned down again, because originally she was just here to escort things, but now she has become a prisoner.
"Hey, it's out."
Just when she was feeling sorry for herself, a voice suddenly came from outside. She looked up and saw that at some point, the men of her captors were standing outside the room, shouting at her.
"What are you doing standing still? Do you want me to help you?" Xiao Qing looked at the other person, and then said with some disgust.
"Who called me?"
Seeing that the barrier outside disappeared, she became frightened. She felt that she was worthless and wanted to kill herself, so she said with some flinch.
"My parents always tell you to come out quickly if something happens." Xiao Qing said impatiently.
She is not worried that the other party will run away. Anyway, the other party has been sealed by Elder Gu and cannot run away.
Hua Xin saw that the other party was trying to force his way up, but was not in Moji, so he immediately left here and followed the other party towards the center.
Along the way, I looked around with a very calm expression. In fact, I felt a little uneasy. I felt that it would be better for me to be tougher. Only in this way can I make the other party feel that I am more useful.
There was a hall they had built before, which was intended for Master Jin to use temporarily, but now it was occupied by the other party.
"Elder Gu, the other party has been brought here."
It didn't take long for Hua Xin to be brought over by Xiao Qing, who then left her alone.
"Draw your heart, right? This time you"
"I don't know anything. It's useless for you to ask me unless you torture me."
Gu Zheng looked at the other party, and then spoke slowly. As soon as he opened his mouth, the other party couldn't wait to interrupt him, which made him a little surprised.
"Otherwise? Are you asking again? I definitely won't be the first to say it."
Looking at Gu Zheng's strange eyes, Gu Zheng finally understood why Gu Feng said that the Huahun clan was a little different from ordinary demon souls.
Meng Zhen, whom I first met, and Hua Xin, whom I have just come into contact with now, feel that their brain circuits are different.
