Although Li Huan is the most precious treasure of the Phoenix clan, he is suppressed by the fire wind, which makes Li Huan unable to exert his maximum power. Gu Zheng still understands this.
After all, at that time, if he had carried a heavy treasure, he would have died long ago. Even if he tried his best, he could not conceal the aura of the Phoenix clan, which would attract the attention of others, or the ancestor might have taken action directly.
Although I had a gourd at that time, I had borrowed the thing, and it would be useless if the other party took it away. As for the Judge's Pen and the Book of Life and Death, although it seemed to have a good effect, its role was mainly in the underworld, so that they could be used.
The biggest effect, purely in terms of power, is not as good as the five rings in Gu Zheng's hands.
In the eyes of those people, the jade ring is at best a good magic weapon. Even now, they will not be tempted to put down their dignity and fight for it.
But precisely because of this, as Gu Zheng was a powerful magic weapon at that time, he put a lot of effort into Li Huan. At least the ignorant bird in it was still ignorant now, but he was already very close to him.
Now, without my own permission, even the initial Fire Wind cannot be used perfectly in my hands.
The Phoenix clan may know the existence of the little bird, but they may not realize that the little bird itself can also produce glazed pure fire, which is the reason for his entry.
However, compared to the power of the Pure Fire, which is too weak at this time and cannot be formed at all, I am afraid that it will only be able to fully show its grace when the seal is unlocked. At that time, I will not be afraid of anyone coming to fight for my things.
With the protection maintained by a layer of birds, the moment Gu Zheng stepped inside, the surrounding gray mist surged up and stayed outside him, not daring to get closer.
Gu Zheng saw with his own eyes some of the gray fog rushing in, but they were running away at a faster speed, but the gray fog on their bodies was reduced by half.
The space here is full of gray mist of different sizes. If they really rush up all at once, even if there are more, they may not be able to sustain this pure fire. Fortunately, the other party has no wisdom and only instinct, and will not do this.
It reassured him a lot.
Looking at the past, as Elder Piao said, this place is like an absolute death place, but perhaps it is a matter of protection. Gu Zheng did not notice any aura from the outside world to interfere with him, as if he just entered an ordinary place, but there were too many
Just a little weird.
After looking around, except for some strange-shaped stones, there was nothing surprising. It could be said to be a closed and gloomy cave.
Knowing exactly what he wanted to do, Gu Zheng just stopped on the spot for a few breaths, and then continued to fly forward at an unpleasant speed to avoid running into the very light gray fog and consuming countless birds.
Much power.
After traveling for many years, a huge behemoth appeared in the distance. A tree that was even bigger than what was seen in the cave stood in front. Due to the height problem, the huge branches looked like a tree hanging from above.
A forest.
Unlike the bare trees outside, these branches look like they are the size of an arm, like caterpillars, and are constantly squirming. However, you can only see these from a distance. If you want to see the details, you need to get closer to see them clearly.
However, as soon as the body took a few steps closer to that side, a figure wearing white clothes was seen lying on the ground. On her body, there were two streams of black and gray mist, which were constantly moving around her body.
And her entire body was emitting red and golden light, which looked a little weird.
"It's not too late."
Seeing this, Gu Zheng breathed a sigh of relief. Whether the opponent had been injured or had been controlled by unknown changes here, it had not fallen to the worst level. The instinct of the opponent's body was still fighting against here. Everything
It’s not too late, it seems it won’t be difficult this time.
After walking a few steps, Miss Bai, who was lying on the ground, suddenly stood up. A huge momentum burst out from her body towards the surroundings. The black mist and gray mist were swept away, and everything within a few feet of the opponent's body was swept away.
, forming a temporary safe space.
"Miss Bai, right? I'm from outside to take you back, you now"
Gu Zheng suddenly stopped as he smiled and looked at Miss Bai in front of him with some confusion. Apart from some dirt on her body, there seemed to be no traces of injury, and there were no signs of a fight nearby. But here
At that time, the other party's eyes, one with a strange gray light, and the other with an equally strange black light, were staring blankly at Gu Zheng.
"Hmm"
At this moment, Bai Jiu suddenly groaned in pain, covering his head with both hands, as if he was suffering endless pain, and kept roaring in his mouth.
"If you want to kill me, you bastards should be a little bit naive. Come and die with me."
After shouting in pain, Bai Jiu turned around and rushed towards the huge tree behind him. Needless to say, Gu Zheng understood the meaning.
The other party must still have been affected to some extent. Knowing that he could not withstand the past, he could only adopt the first plan before and die with the other party. I am afraid that he was not even aware of the ancient dispute next to him.
Countless black energy nearby rioted, trying to rush over crazily. Unfortunately, once it entered within a foot of the body, it seemed to hit an invisible layer of protection, and could only keep squeezing outside, and soon formed a huge
Black Ball, on the other hand, seemed to have lost interest in her. Instead, they all gathered around Gu Zheng and kept swimming around.
Gu Zheng couldn't just watch his opponent die like this, so he immediately chased after him. He had just taken two steps when he noticed the gray fog that was in the way. With a thought in his mind, a white line of fire rushed towards him, forcing one person in front of him.
With room to move forward, he accelerated and quickly arrived in front of Bai Jiu.
"Miss Bai, please stop. I'm here to rescue you. Just leave the problems here to me." Gu Zheng looked at Bai Jiu with his eyes closed and said immediately.
"You monsters, are you still determined to give up?" Bai Jiu's body stopped, and he still closed his eyes and said in a hoarse voice.
But before she finished speaking, Gu Zheng's figure immediately left the place, and a red beam of light emitted from the opponent's palm. As it rubbed against Gu Zheng's body, the huge power made him feel a surge of light.
Cold sweat.
The opponent is a quasi-sage master. If it weren't for those interferences, I would have been seriously injured by the opponent's casual blow.
And just when Gu Zheng was dodging, Bai Jiu had already rushed out again and didn't care at all. After all, Gu Zheng's aura was there and posed no threat to her at all.
At this time, Gu Zheng also had a wry smile on his face, feeling like he didn't know what to do.
He wanted to save her, but obviously the difference in strength between the two was too big. It was impossible for him to stop her, but he couldn't watch the other party die. He immediately set off to chase the other party not far behind him, and started to face Bai Jiu.
shouted.
But obviously Bai Jiu didn't take Gu Zheng seriously at all, or regarded it as phantom harassment. As long as he didn't stand in front of her, she didn't ask at all. From the painful moans coming out of her mouth from time to time, it was obvious that there wasn't much.
Use your energy to distinguish the authenticity of ancient disputes.
As he got closer, Gu Zheng became more and more anxious. He really hadn't thought of this outside, but if he were in his shoes, even under normal circumstances, he would be extremely wary. After all, he had no idea that no one could get in here.
Deep-rooted, not to mention that the other party is now being interfered with and may only be thinking about how to complete their own tasks.
Just when Gu Zheng was still racking his brains on how to get her to stop, Bai Jiu, who was advancing in front of him, suddenly stopped. Just as he hurriedly stopped to avoid accidentally bumping into her, a sound came from his ears.
The roar was extremely violent and the sound was so unpleasant that it was impossible to tell what kind of creature it was.
When I looked up, I found that I had unknowingly approached the giant tree. On the dark-looking branches, one by one spread their wings. There were nearly hundreds of black phoenix creatures, which were constantly flashing their wings and screaming.
Mo's eyes, in this dimly lit space, were so bright that they were like stars hanging in the sky, but they were filled with a terrifying light, as if they were about to be swallowed with their bones.
The strength of those black phoenixes does not appear to be strong on the surface, or in other words, each of them has a similar level of cultivation to Gu Zheng. They are not strong only for Elder Piao's quasi-sage, which is what he cannot understand.
There were a lot of opponents, but it shouldn't be difficult for Bai Jiu. But looking at her cautious expression with her eyes closed, it was obvious that there was something he didn't know.
With a loud roar, hundreds of black phoenixes flapped their wings, flew down from the branches, and rushed towards Bai Jiu. While still in mid-air, black rays of light emerged from the opponent's eyes and headed toward the center.
Bai Jiu shot away, not even interested in taking a look at Gu Zheng not far behind.
Gu Zheng immediately retreated to the side. If he had resisted forcefully, he would probably have evaporated directly. At the same time, he looked towards Bai Jiu,
Bai Jiu did not dodge Gu Zheng's irresistible attack. He just stretched out a hand and took a staggering step forward. A red flame instantly surrounded her, forming a ring of fire that kept burning outside. Those attacks
When it falls on it, it just throws up a large amount of sparks, giving the feeling of being as big as a thunder god but as small as a raindrop.
The duel between the two seemed very harmonious. Black Phoenix seemed to know that its attack could not cause any damage, so it just accelerated and hit Bai Jiu directly.
In Gu Zheng's surprised eyes, a black phoenix in front seemed to commit suicide, and its whole body rushed forward. Its huge body did not bring it any advantage. The moment it got closer, he could clearly see that its entire body
It quickly shrunk and was actually sucked into the seemingly ordinary fire ring, but the center of the fire ring seemed to be a bit dim.
Gu Zheng's eyes couldn't help but twitch, because the second phoenix had appeared again and crashed towards it. It looked like it was committing suicide to break the opponent's defense. Bai Jiu's posture was even more strange, as if he was waiting.
When the other party arrived, it didn't have the same unique momentum as before, but it seemed that the interference on the other party was not getting stronger, which was puzzling.
Although he didn't know what Bai Jiu was thinking, Gu Zheng had already thought of a good idea at this time.
Bai Jiu's target is not just the mouth of the black tree. She can't force her back. As long as she destroys it in advance and completes the task, she can't sacrifice herself in unnecessary actions. The other party seems to be held back by these black phoenixes.
Even if he didn't know the reason, he knew that there was no way he could let such a good opportunity pass.
The next moment, Gu Zheng's figure slowly dissipated in mid-air. Even though it didn't seem to have much effect, Gu Zheng still hid his body, walked away from it, and approached the giant tree from another direction.
So you can see some gray fog constantly surrounding an empty place, and the place they surround is one of the few pure places here.
Gu Zheng also knew, but he just wanted to hide it from those Dark Phoenixes. What surprised him was that they really didn't seem to pay attention to him, allowing him to get close to them very smoothly.
As he approached here, the gray fog that always surrounded him had quietly left. He seemed to have the same fear of this giant tree, but the black air here was even more intense. Standing below, you can see countless
The black air rising on each branch is the caterpillar that I saw standing on it before, which looks more enlarged. The wrinkles on the body and the fluff are even more disgusting when viewed up close.
There is only a small hole like a mouth on it, and countless black gases continue to emerge from the small hole as the body continues to squirm, turning into wisps of black smoke and rising upward. The higher you look, the more black smoke becomes.
After reaching a certain level of density, a thick black cloud has formed.
Seeing this, Gu Zheng also took a deep breath. There was no cover around him, and he could see that there was no such unforgettable mouth below. It was obviously at a higher place, which was also the most dangerous place.
Turning his head and looking behind him, Bai Jiu saw that half of the number of black phoenixes had disappeared, and half of the fire ring below was dyed black. Bai Jiu didn't know when he had advanced a lot further, and the branches that had recently been hanging down were all gone.
It was less than a few feet away from him, so it was obvious that Gu Zheng didn't have much time.
If you continue to think like this, when the other party dies together, everything you have done will be in vain, and what you plan will naturally come to nothing.
Gu Zheng immediately stopped hesitating, his body appeared outside, exerted force under his feet, and his whole body rose into the air, jumping directly to a height of more than ten meters. A pressure came from above, and he stepped on the branch suddenly, and with "
With a crisp and soft sound, the branch under his feet broke into two pieces, and Gu Zheng took the opportunity to jump into the air again.
He didn't use his magic power, and wanted to get as close as possible with his physical body, but the outside of his body was still defended by birds. He didn't want to deal with the black smoke that couldn't tell the way.
Maybe it's his caution, maybe it's his weakness, and Bai Jiu outside has helped him attract attention. If the giant tree here has its own consciousness, it will obviously know what his old opponent is going to do this time, and maybe it will be for him.
He didn't attach much importance to it. In short, Gu Zheng had successfully touched the clouds of black mist.
It can be clearly seen that after countless black mist merged into it, it did not completely stay inside. Some of it continued to be drawn away from above. As for the above, it was no longer clear. If you want to know, you must break through this barrier.
.
As Gu Zheng thought, the little bird that had been sitting quietly on Gu Zheng's head had raised its wings and was about to fly, and a layer of bright white light quickly condensed on its entire body.
He knew that no matter how low-key the other party was, if he really broke into this place, the other party would definitely take measures. It would not be so easy at that time. He just hoped that he would not take himself so seriously. After all, the guy below was very powerful and had the attitude of dying together.
, how come he is obviously better than him, who is only a person in the later stage of Daluo.
"Shua"
The bird's wings were folded together, and its body quickly flew upwards. A fierce flame burst out from outside its body and rushed towards the black mist. Wherever it passed, a passage for one person was forcibly opened.
Gu Zheng followed closely behind, breaking through this layer of black fog in just the blink of an eye, and came to the world that the other party had deliberately hidden.
Here, there is fog everywhere, which greatly compresses his field of vision, so that he can see things within three feet at most. From his sight, he can only see black cocoons that are as tall as a person.
There are growths on each branch, and as the black cocoon beats regularly like a heart, a small part of the surrounding black mist is sucked in.
Looking at these black cocoons, his heart jumped suddenly, as if there was something terrifying inside. Once released, it would definitely bring huge disasters to the world. Fortunately, the other party seemed to be in a deep sleep. Maybe he could only leave here.
After completely releasing the opponent's power, he now understood a little bit why the Phoenix clan wanted to suppress this place and prevent these things from coming out.
Regarding these, Gu Zheng only paid a little attention, and then his eyes were already looking through the endless black fog towards a certain position in the sky. Although he could not see what was there, he had a feeling in his heart that there seemed to be something "similar"
"There he is, and the other party is also deliberately exuding his own aura, attracting him to come over.
"Ha, I want to see what kind of tricks you are playing."
Above Gu Zheng's head, a passage without any black mist appeared in mid-air. The road was somewhat curved in order to avoid some impassable places. It was obviously a passage specially prepared for him.
He had no idea about this, and felt that the other party was playing with fire. The expected entanglement did not come, so he naturally would not let go of this opportunity and flew upwards quickly along this passage.
In just a dozen breaths, after crossing a height of a hundred meters, Gu Zheng finally saw that the thing that invited him up was the mouth he was looking for.
It is said to be a mouth, but in fact, there is a shape that looks like a mouth at the position of the head, like a flattened circle, and underneath there is a human body and limbs, and the only pair of eyes are also at the breasts on the chest.
.
Streams of black air were continuously inhaled from his navel, and then a round hole like a mouth was emerging in his head. However, what came out was not black air, but an extremely thin layer of gray mist.
, continue to rise upward.
It turns out that the birthplace of gray fog actually comes from here.
