This place has no name, and it is very large, enough to accommodate tens of thousands of people, but usually the place will not be filled even when there are the most people.
Many stayed here, some took a temporary rest and healed their injuries. Some lone rangers carried the aura of keeping away from strangers, wandering around among them, and soon disappeared here. More people were shouting here.
I want to form a team and go in together.
“Get a companion with strong defense, as long as it can block the full force attack of the ghost in the later stage.”
“Four companions equal two, and the hunting is distributed according to merit.”
The noisy sounds, as well as some loud talking and laughing, made the place never quiet for a moment. It made Gu Zheng feel like he was in a vegetable market, especially those teams looking for their companions, which made him feel a surge of emotion.
It's a weird feeling, I feel like I'm in a game place, upgrading and hunting treasures together.
But dying here is really death, there is only one life.
“This little brother.”
Just as Gu Zheng and the others were continuing to move forward, suddenly a neatly dressed young man stopped the two of them, with a sunny smile that made people feel good.
"What do you want?" Gu Zheng glanced at the other person, judging that the other person should belong to the race of Xiaoqian World, and said calmly.
There are no human beings here, but rather some strange creatures, which are barely on par with the demon clan, and their status is high and low. This seems to belong to the status of a rabbit demon among the demon clan.
“Little Bi Chen, it seems that this is your first time here.” The young man said with a smile, his attitude of not caring at all was so humble.
From the two points of view, he could tell at a glance that Gu Zheng was the leader, so he ignored Wei Wufan at all.
Gu Zheng did not speak, but continued to wait for the other party to speak, wanting to see what the other party said.
Seeing Gu Zheng's look, Bi Chen felt that he had been seen through from beginning to end, inside and out, and even his own thoughts. He felt a little uncomfortable but continued to speak.
"I see absolute self-confidence in the adults. It is absolutely extraordinary at first glance. Otherwise, you would not wear those defensive clothes. In fact, the effect it can produce is very small."
Bi Chen flattered him a little, but after seeing the impatient look in Gu Zheng's eyes, he knew that he should get down to business, otherwise he might be driven away again.
"Sir, this is how it is. I found a very old lotus plant in a relatively hidden cave. It is of great value. I want to dedicate it to you. I just ask you to help me with a little thing. It is definitely not difficult.
, it was just a matter of passing by. There was a friend of mine in front of the Youliancao. The last time we came there, we encountered an unexpected incident. As a result, I was the only one who escaped by chance, but the monsters there were alarmed. I think
It’s not even possible to collect the body of my friend.”
"I don't want anything in there. I just want to bring my friend's body back. I saw the righteous look on your face, so I boldly stopped you and asked you to do me a favor."
Bi Chen’s eyes were red as he spoke. He seemed to be thinking of his friends, his voice was a little low, and tears fell at any time. He looked like he had the deepest friendship.
"Master Gu, Ghost Grass is an important raw material for making high-level recovery. It is worth a lot of money. On its own, it is enough for a Golden Immortal to recover from serious injuries in the later stage. However, the other party seems to have other plans. You should be careful. The people here are wandering around.
No one has a bad heart, so don’t listen to the other person’s nonsense.”
After the other party finished speaking, Wei Wuxuan secretly sent a message to Gu Zheng and said.
Gu Zheng nodded slightly, indicating that he understood Wei Wuxuan's concerns, but his thoughts were opposite to Wei Wuxuan's. This person seemed to be obviously flexible and a perfect target for exploitation, so he said with interest.
“Really? I didn’t expect to meet such a friendly person here.”
"Sir, what I said is true. The other person has saved my life several times. It was my recklessness that caused the other person. I am really sorry for him." Bi Chen forced a few tears to flow from his eyes, speaking in an emotional tone.
It's so deep that even ancient disputes can't be discerned.
“Well, I appreciate your feelings. It just so happens that this is my first time here and I have no specific goal, so I just want to help you.” Gu Zheng directly waved his hand to interrupt the other party’s incitement and agreed to the other party’s request.
"Thank you, sir. Thank you, sir. Do you need to buy anything else? I still have some savings." Bi Chen slowly put away his expression, and showed a hint of joy in a very suitable way, just like the corpse of his friend.
It's like being able to be found.
"No need, just lead the way. I just happened to pick up a group of people and will leave in two days." Gu Zheng had no intention of telling his purpose.
“That’s too much trouble, sir. I’ll lead the way for you.”
Bi Chen diligently walked in front, like a guide, and quickly brought Gu Zheng to this entrance.
It is said to be an entrance, but it is actually a simple barrier that is a hundred feet wide. Many people come in and out here, carrying with them the fierce aura that has not dissipated from the battle.
Gu Zheng took a quick look on the road and found that most people were in the Heavenly Immortal and Golden Immortal stages. It was rare to see people above the Golden Immortal stage, let alone Da Luo. They probably didn’t even bother to come here.
“My lord, please, this road is a bit far, but it only takes half a day, so please don’t be in a hurry.” When he arrived at the entrance, Bi Chen said something to Gu Zheng in advance to prevent this powerful and powerful man from getting up.
Then he put on the clothes he had disdained before, tightly wrapped his body, exposed his head, and then took the lead and walked in.
Passing through this layer of faint black cover, the scenery in front of you changed drastically. What you saw was a blood-red sky. Blood mist like a sandstorm filled the air, making the sky look like it was covered with a layer of glass.
It was even weirder, and a depressing feeling fell on my heart.
At this time, there are still many people scattered, with the group as the center, heading deeper. The further inside, the more depressing the scenery becomes, the greater the danger, and of course the greater the reward.
Smelling the faint indescribable smell, a faint golden light appeared on the surface, and then I felt better.
In this place, all the spiritual energy is very violent, and there is always a layer of extremely light red mist in the sky, disturbing everyone. It is impossible to see clearly a hundred feet away, as if covered with a veil, blurry.
For others, the line of sight is only about ten feet.
Stepping on some soft ground, it felt like a swamp under their feet, and there was a disgusting smell. After giving Wei Wufang a careful look, they set off towards the inside.
Gu Zheng really has no interest in helping him, but he also knows that the other party will definitely come to this city to look for traces of him. Now he needs this guy who comes to his door to help him. Only in this way can he get the other party's attention.
You can attract them with all your strength and save yourself a lot of thought.
For the sake of safety, Gu Zheng and the other party patiently followed each other.
Along the way, I also encountered monsters here, a few monsters that were only in the immortal stage, a monster formed by the entanglement of black mist and red mist. It was like two monsters merged into one, and their strength was one level higher than those with the same level of cultivation.
However, he didn't even take action, and was defeated by Wei Wuxian three times.
There were even a few black cores dropped. When Gu Zheng saw it, he was a little surprised. The black cores dropped by seemingly violent monsters actually contained pure spiritual energy. They were very supple and even Gu Zheng could do it smoothly.
There is no abnormality at all when inhaled into the body, so it is no wonder that it is used as the common currency here.
After dispatching the monsters blocking the road, Bi Chen led Gu Zheng to a stop in less than half a day.
"There is a cave below here. We accidentally fell here when we were fighting monsters. According to our analysis at the time, it was probably the cave of a senior. There were many things in it, but there were a few powerful puppets.
, is still guarding it now, and it is even stained by the red mist. It is very powerful, please be careful, sir."
While groping carefully, Bi Chen told Gu Zheng the information he knew.
“Don’t worry, with my cultivation at the peak of Golden Immortal, I can handle them as long as they are not a large group.” Gu Zheng said with a proud look on his face.
“Then there is absolutely no problem, sir. The next step is easy for you. Thank you sir for helping me.” Bi Chen said gratefully, and the movements of his hands sped up a bit.
In less than a cup of tea, a dark hole was successfully dug out. The entrance was reinforced by him, making it difficult to enter accidentally.
“Sir, please, I will go down and explore the way for you first.” Bi Chenreluo pointed at the entrance, and then jumped directly.
"Master Gu, do you really want to help each other?" Wei Wuxuan felt something was wrong. Gu Zheng was not unaware of their current situation. He wasted too much time here, which made him anxious.
"Don't worry, I already have a way to leave here. If nothing happens, I will be able to leave smoothly. I'm more anxious than you are. You can leave after I finish things." Gu Zheng glanced at him.
, and then jumped right in.
Wei Wuxian wanted to say a few more words but had no choice but to go in together.
Hearing Gu Zheng's last words, his heart became confused because he didn't want to leave. He wanted to leave with Gu Zheng. There was no place for him here. If he showed any trace, he might get monsters in the sky.
It was miserable, so I decided to follow him out of here.
After arriving below, Bi Chen held up a bead emitting white light in front of him, dispersing the surrounding darkness, and waited for Gu Zheng and the others to come down before speaking.
“There are a lot of monsters in front of me, but they are not very strong. I can deal with them, but I need you to take action in the back.”
“Lead the way. Since I will do what I say, there’s no need to worry about anything else.” Gu Zheng pointed to the front and said nonchalantly.
This Bi Chen is not weak at all, he is in the early stage of Golden Immortal. It seems that he has been around here for a long time, and he has a lot of good things hidden in him.
This passage is not a line, but has many forks, like a maze, and a monster will pop out from time to time.
Bi Chen also dealt with the opponent quickly and neatly, without even missing some falling black cores, giving Wei Wuxuan an advantage.
The journey continued deep underground until they came to a spacious hall. After struggling to deal with a group of enemies, Bi Chen said breathlessly.
“Sir, if we are going forward, that is where we have arrived. The medicinal material I mentioned is right in front, and my friend’s body is a little further ahead.”
“Okay then, you follow me.”
Gu Zheng took the rest of the matters directly into his own hands and walked straight ahead towards the only passage.
This place really looks like a buried site. From some traces around it, it can be seen that this place was originally in a cave. There are still some traces of life here, but I don’t know why it turned into this place.
This way, it doesn't look like it's abandoned.
He doesn't want to pursue the story here. If he goes deeper, he might be able to learn some little-known secrets, but he just wants to finish the scene and leave here, and he doesn't care at all.
Starting from the passage in front of us, the surrounding area is not solid land, but a special kind of decoration. Now it looks like the surface is gray and has not been cleaned, and is a bit dilapidated. It can be seen that it was very luxurious back then.
Gu Zheng is like a willful young master, and then goes all the way forward. Even if the kind of puppet Bi Chen talks about appears here, it seems to be a special kind of clay refinement with extremely strong defense. However, in front of Gu Zheng, there is basically no chance of a few rounds.
The enemy, this was Gu Zheng deliberately suppressing himself. If he used his full strength, these powerful puppets would not be his opponent at all.
With Gu Zheng's exaggerated forward speed, he quickly pushed in, and a very huge underground space appeared in front of him. At a glance, it was almost the same size as the city above.
In this space, there are many equally majestic rooms, as if the owner who originally lived here was not small.
There are many rare medicinal materials growing scatteredly in some surrounding places. Of course, for this place and for ancient times, good things are like poison and cannot be taken.
“My friend is outside the palace inside, please sir, and the herb is in the side hall, and there are some monsters more powerful than me.” Bi Chen next to him said carefully, telling the monsters he had in the air.
If he remembered correctly, there were at least hundreds of monsters around the middle stage of Golden Immortal in this area, otherwise he wouldn't have been the only one who ran out last time. Unfortunately, the most important thing is his friends.
He has always wanted to find someone to help him outside, but of course he would not tell the person his purpose, but several years have passed and he has not found anyone.
These people who eat bones but don’t spit out the dregs are afraid that they will die when they get to the place. He doesn’t want to die so early. Just when he was getting more and more desperate, he discovered two people in Gu Zheng.
Although he didn't know who the other party was, he used his own talent to judge that the other party was the person he was looking for. Of course, he might not succeed. As a result, he was pleasantly surprised and got help from the other party. As long as he took away his friend's things, then
This inheritance is his.
“Wei Wufan, you also take action and search the area, leaving me to deal with it slowly.”
Gu Zheng felt that many monsters were wandering in this area, and many were sleeping, waiting for the arrival of the enemy to be awakened. However, there were only a few late-stage Golden Immortal monsters in the deepest part, and there were no other monsters that could threaten Wei Wufang.
What's more, these monsters have been here for such a long time, and they are a little weak without any supplements.
Wei Wuxuan glanced at Gu Zheng with some surprise, but Gu Zheng nodded, suppressed the doubts in his heart, and then went down to look for the Youliancao in the side hall pointed by the other party.
The ancient war slowly went on, gradually drawing out the monsters, and then the battle began.
For a time, the entire cave was filled with the sound of fighting.
It took half a day before all the monsters were swept away, and Wei Wuxuan also confiscated many things. Looking at the other party's appearance, it was obvious that he had taken a lot of good things.
This place has been abandoned for so many years. Even though many things are not well preserved and have been damaged, there is still a lot left.
"You can go, we will leave after collecting the body." Gu Zheng said calmly to Bi Chen behind him.
“Thank you, sir, thank you, sir.”
Bi Chen rushed up with a grateful face. When he saw that his companion had not been touched and that the inheritance was still in his arms, he felt extremely excited in his heart and kept thanking Gu Zheng.
“I’m afraid you won’t thank me after a while.” Gu Zheng glanced at the other person, wondering what was on that body, but it was not exciting at all.
"What?" Bi Chen was shocked and his face changed, but he still pretended to be calm and raised his head and said.
“It’s nothing, I appreciate your friendship, so just let you stay here with your friend. I don’t want people to know that we are here.” Gu Zheng smiled at the other person, which made the latter’s heart light up even more.
“Boom, boom, boom”
The entire cave suddenly began to shake at this time, and large chunks of soil fell from above. Even the palace over there began to become unstable under the violent vibrations. Some places that had been in disrepair for a long time were immediately shaken.
Collapse and collapse.
“Sir, what’s wrong!” Bi Chen turned pale and shouted to Gu Zheng.
My heart is already falling into the abyss infinitely, wondering if the other party has discovered something and now wants to silence him.
"It's okay. I helped you fulfill your wish, and I won't take anything away from you, so I didn't break my promise. It's just that you were unlucky enough to meet us. Wei Wufang, let's go." Gu Zheng glanced at Bi Chen.
, immediately turned around and went back the way he came.
But the pen body wanted to follow, but was shrouded in a ray of light, and was pressed to the ground unable to move. He could not even open his mouth. Countless clods of soil fell on him, and he watched Gu Zheng and Wei Wuxian leave here.
“Sir, how long are we going to stay here?”
“If possible, wait until at least the next opening, but of course it may be longer. Wei Wuxian, in a few days, to avoid the limelight, go out and buy some.”
As the two of them went away, Bi Chen couldn't hear each other's words clearly. He looked at his friend's body out of the corner of his eye and smiled bitterly in his heart. It seemed that he was really going to die here.
He thought of what Gu Zheng said to him last time. He promised to help find his friend, but did not say what happened next. But who would have known that the other party did not want his own things at all, but instead killed him because he had seen him.
.
“Okay, friend, it looks like I’m going to be your companion this time.”
Bi Chen looked at the collapsing clods of soil above and felt that the power in his body was getting stronger. He was afraid that he would be killed soon, and he smiled bitterly in his heart.
