With another roar and the swaying of the forest trees, the owner of this territory appeared in front and left of Gu Zheng. It was a beast that looked like a leopard, but was half the size of the tiger behind him.
The tiger was very close to the ancient war, close enough to launch a pounce, but the appearance of the leopard beast forced it to pay attention to the current problem again. Its body also stopped suddenly due to its footsteps and slid on the ground due to inertia.
Go some distance.
The tiger had to think about what to do, but Gu Zheng would not hesitate because of this. He quickly disappeared into the forest while the two beasts were looking at each other.
Gu Zheng breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. He could hear that after he escaped, the two beasts had started fighting. This was the result he wanted to see most. Being able to escape from the tiger's mouth was actually not a very unexpected thing.
He is just a wolf now, and its weakness poses no threat to the huge leopard beast. The other party will naturally focus on the tiger.
He has escaped danger for the time being, but this escape is really only temporary. Judging from the smell along the way, Gu Zheng is still in the territory of the leopard beast. He doesn't know how long it will take for the leopard beast to deal with the tiger beast, but he knows that no matter what
It was the beast that won the fight. As long as it was not seriously injured, it would chase him. After all, he was the root cause of the fight between the two beasts.
Gu Zheng was actually very tired. He had never fully recovered. If he had not been supported by his strong willpower, he would have collapsed on the ground after running away.
Finally, Gu Zheng escaped from the vast forest and came to the bank of a big river.
Because he had been running for his life, some things had been ignored by Gu Zheng before, but now that he had escaped from the forest and saw the river, he suddenly felt unbearably hungry and thirsty.
The river water is very clear, and the feeling at the entrance is very good, but Gu Zheng is just a wolf now, and he can only drink water like a beast.
Although he was very hungry, hunger was not that unbearable compared to thirst. After Gu Zheng drank his fill in one breath, he could no longer suppress the pain in his body and fell directly to the river.
He closed his eyes and gasped for breath. Gu Zheng was really tired now. He had no intention of moving. He was going to wait here for the power of space to recover.
Gu Zheng also had his considerations in choosing to restore the power of space by the river. If danger comes from the forest, he can choose to jump into the river. If danger comes from the river, then he can also choose to escape into the forest.
This is considered a very good resting place.
Time passed little by little, and Gu Zheng's physical strength was also recovering little by little. During this period, he saw many wild beasts, but these wild beasts came to the river to drink water, and most of them were far away from him and there were no traces of them.
Something dangerous happened.
"The power of damn law!"
Looking at the deer drinking water by the river in the distance, Gu Zheng couldn't help but cursed in his heart again, and his sense of crisis became even stronger.
When Gu Zheng first escaped to the river, he already felt hungry, but the hunger was not unbearable. At that time, he was still thinking about the delicious food he had enjoyed before. However, after staying by the river for half a day,
, he found that the influence of the power of law on him became more and more obvious, and he actually developed an extremely strong desire to prey on living animals! This made him feel that he had become more and more integrated into his current body, and he wanted to capture a deer with
The beast's way to deal with the feeling of being tortured by hunger.
The feeling of wanting to drink blood and eat meat is very strong. It is difficult for Gu Zheng to suppress it, and as time goes by, this feeling will become more and more unbearable. Gu Zheng believes that it will break out late at night and make him do something.
Something he didn't want to do.
Gu Zheng has no good solution. His space power will not be restored until tomorrow morning. Only by giving himself the means of an immortal cultivator can he control the instinct of this beast. However, if he really makes a decision tonight
He won't have any psychological burden on anything he doesn't want to do. It's not a big deal anyway, as long as he doesn't keep doing it and lose himself.
As night falls, no matter whether the luminous object in the sky is real or fake, at least it looks like the moon in ancient times.
Looking at the moon in the sky, Gu Zheng felt an indescribable anxiety in his heart, and his hunger for blood and meat became even stronger.
All kinds of negative feelings have accumulated together, and it has reached the point where Gu Zheng has no intention to think about anything else and can only suppress it with all his heart. During the day, Gu Zheng also thought that if he really couldn't suppress it, he would hunt like a wild beast.
The prey was nothing, but Gu Zheng no longer dared to think so. He always felt that the night was indescribably weird to him.
Not thinking about anything else, this also reduced Gu Zheng's perception, preventing him from noticing that the leopard beast that helped him escape the tiger crisis during the day was quietly approaching him.
In the daytime battle with the tiger, the leopard beast finally killed the tiger, but it also paid a small price. It recovered for half a day, and then began to track the ancient dispute.
The leopard beast lurking in the night was as silent as a ghost. After approaching Gu Zheng for a certain distance, it finally launched a pounce to lock the target.
Gu Zheng felt a shiver in his heart. The leopard beast had cautiously approached him without noticing it before, but the sound of wind caused by the leopard beast's pounce still made him feel it.
The leopard beast launched a sneak attack from behind Gu Zheng. Gu Zheng knew what was attacking him without looking back. The breath of the leopard beast had been smelled by him first along with the air wave generated by the pounce.
Gu Zheng didn't hesitate at all. He was already at the river and jumped directly into the river. His reaction was fast enough, but in the end it was still too late. Although he was not held down by the leopard beast, the claws of the leopard beast were still there.
It left a long wound on his body, so much so that when the cold river water entered the wound, Gu Zheng grinned at the pain.
"Woo!"
The leopard beast standing on the shore roared, but it did not jump into the river following Gu Zheng. Under normal circumstances, beasts can swim, but they also have an inherent fear of the river water and will not jump into the river unless it is absolutely necessary.
Gu Zheng swam towards the other side of the river, feeling glad that he had chosen to rest on the shore during the day, otherwise he might have been in big trouble this time.
However, the happiness did not stay in Gu Zheng's heart for long. He stared at the upper reaches of the river with wide eyes, where a big wave was approaching quickly.
When he saw the huge wave, Gu Zheng was so angry that he almost wanted to curse. If the sudden big wave was not the "color" given to him by the weapon spirit, he would not believe it even if he were beaten to death.
"Damn weapon spirit!"
In the end, Gu Zheng couldn't help but curse in his heart. Since Da Lang was the color given to him by the weapon spirit, then things were worse than expected. He thought that the weapon spirit had given him a gift by forcibly absorbing him into this world.
The color was at its limit. He didn't expect that the weapon spirit could still trip him up like this! Moreover, since the big waves were the stumbling blocks given by the weapon spirit, would the tigers during the day, or even the leopard beasts now, also be the weapon spirit?
Where is the stumbling block?
Gu Zheng did not swim desperately to the other side of the river. The river was very wide, and at his speed it was impossible to swim to the other side of the river before the big waves came, so he might as well save some effort.
Soon enough, the big wave was very close to Gu Zheng, and Gu Zheng dived into the water before the big wave hit him on the head.
There are undercurrents in the water caused by big waves. This is something that Gu Zheng has thought of before, but it is better to face the undercurrent directly than to be blown into the undercurrent by the big wave. If it is really blown into the undercurrent by the big wave, it is better to face the undercurrent directly.
, then he may be knocked unconscious directly, resulting in drowning.
The undercurrent is rolling Gu Zheng, just like a strong wind rolling leaves. If Gu Zheng is just an ordinary beast, he will definitely drown in the process, but Gu Zheng is a cultivator after all, and he is swept by the undercurrent.
I didn't panic, I just held my breath firmly.
There is only one big wave, which Gu Zheng had seen before when he was diving, so he knew that the undercurrent would not last too long, but where he would be after the undercurrent ended was something he could not know, because
He has lost his way in the sweep of the undercurrent. He does not hope that the undercurrent will send him to the side of the leopard beast, but he also knows that this hope is very slim! Since the weapon spirit is stumbling on him, it will definitely not let things happen.
develop in the direction he wants.
The undercurrent was weak, and Gu Zheng's struggling legs had already hit the mud, and half of his head was above the water. This allowed Gu Zheng to understand that he had been rolled to the shore even without opening his eyes.
Before Gu Zheng could raise his head, there was a sharp pain on his neck. The leopard beast bit the back of his neck and lifted him out of the water.
If a wolf was really grabbed by the neck by a larger beast, it would almost surrender and give up resistance, but Gu Zheng was an immortal cultivator after all, and his claws slashed hard to the side.
Gu Zheng injured the leopard beast. His claws scratched the skin below the leopard beast's neck, but it was only a minor scratch.
The leopard beast was in pain and roared angrily from its nostrils. At the same time, it flicked its neck and threw Gu Zheng out of its mouth.
Blood flew from Gu Zheng's neck. Gu Zheng was very lucky. When the leopard beast bit the back of his neck, the bite was not too deep. Its flick only caused a large piece of meat to fall off Gu Zheng's neck.
Although the injury is serious, it is not fatal immediately! But if the leopard bites deeply and the cervical vertebra is injured by this blow, the consequences will be really disastrous, and the cervical vertebra may be broken directly.
After flying out, Qu Guzheng fell heavily to the ground. He struggled to get up, and the leopard beast slowly approached him with cold eyes.
The leopard beast wanted to bite Gu Zheng to death. If the fight between it and the tiger during the day was an old grudge, then the claw that Gu Zheng had just fought by the river was a new grudge. However, the leopard beast was not anxious at all. In its eyes
The dispute between China and ancient times is no different from a cooked duck.
Indeed, although Gu Zheng stood up, his body was already shaking uncontrollably, the injury on his neck was very serious, and the dizziness caused by excessive blood loss had already appeared. If he was really just an ordinary wolf, then
As the leopard beast slowly approached, he must have been lying on the ground again due to excessive blood loss.
However, Gu Zheng was not a real beast. He was thrown away by the leopard monster before. Even though he knew he was seriously injured, he was still lucky in his heart. That was because he felt that as long as he did not die immediately, things might turn around.
Appear.
Before the leopard beast attacked Gu Zheng, Gu Zheng was wholeheartedly suppressing the negative feelings that had accumulated together. Gu Zheng's negative feelings were mainly concentrated in two aspects. One was the hunger to drink blood and eat meat, and the other was the hunger for blood and meat.
On the one hand, there was a kind of anxiety that appeared in his heart as the moon rose.
If it was just hunger that caused the problem, Gu Zheng felt that even if he couldn't suppress that feeling, it would be okay to do beast-like things. However, the anxiety that accompanied the appearance of the moon made Gu Zheng dare not think as he did before.
! He felt that once he allowed himself to suppress that feeling of anxiety, he would not only do beast-like things, but he would also probably be unable to recover, thus losing himself and becoming a real beast.
In fact, when the leopard beast bit him on the back of the neck, Gu Zheng didn't have a clear understanding of the anxious feeling. But when the leopard beast was injured by one of his claws, he saw the leopard beast's blood flowing out, which made him feel...
A special feeling, he finally understood what that anxiety was! It was a power that was affected by the moon and could mutate the body and was about to move!
There are no beasts or monsters in the ancient world that can mutate on a moonlit night, but even if such an existence mutates, it will return to normal afterward. However, Gu Zheng has already understood that once he no longer suppresses the feeling of anxiety,
It is very likely that he will not be able to recover because of this! However, things have developed to the point where there is no retreat. Compared with the death that is about to come, survival is the most critical issue. Gu Zheng can no longer suppress that kind of anxiety.
The anxiety that was no longer suppressed erupted like a mountain torrent in Gu Zheng's heart.
"Ouch!"
Gu Zheng raised his head and let out a wolf howl. His body swelled with violent trembling, as if there was a demon hiding in his body.
The leopard beast that originally walked towards Gu Zheng calmly was obviously shocked by the changes in Gu Zheng. However, the shock was only for a moment, and the leopard beast accelerated and rushed towards Gu Zheng.
It was already too late. The changes in Gu Zheng's body happened very quickly. When the leopard beast rushed over, Gu Zheng, whose body had become much larger, slapped the leopard beast on the ground with one paw.
.
Gu Zheng mutated on this moonlit night, but he did not turn into a werewolf. He just turned into a wolf that was larger than a leopard beast. His original gray fur turned into gold, and his body looked like a golden sculpture.
Only one pair of eyes was completely blood red, with no pupils visible at all.
The leopard beast that was slapped down by Gu Zheng's claw groaned. When it tried to struggle to get up, Gu Zheng slapped it down again, followed by the sound of bones breaking and flying out.
of brain.
Being able to smash the skull of a leopard beast with his claws already shows that Gu Zheng's mutation has gone beyond the scope of ordinary beasts. However, his next actions are undoubtedly like those of ordinary beasts. He lowered his head and made a move to satisfy his hunger.
action.
Gu Zheng was indeed lost. At this moment, he had no thoughts at all and was just doing things based on instinct.
The sound of biting flesh and crushing bones was particularly terrifying in the darkness, and the consciousness that was observing the ancient struggle in the air also disappeared without a trace at this moment.
Not to mention that the current Gu Zheng and the beast are undoubtedly unable to discover the consciousness that observed him before. Even when Gu Zheng was awake, he failed to discover the existence of that consciousness, and that consciousness was the immortal-level space immortal.
The consciousness of the spirit within the instrument.
However, although Gu Zheng could not detect the consciousness of the weapon spirit when he was awake, he would be observed by the weapon spirit. This was something he had guessed. After all, the weapon spirit had used big waves to target him.
As for Gu Zheng, he thought of something when he saw the big wave. He felt that the weapon spirit used the big wave to target him, not to use the big wave to destroy him. Although the wave was called a 'big wave'
, but it is obviously unrealistic to kill him with a big wave. The real purpose of the weapon spirit is probably to send him back to the leopard beast through the big wave.
However, what Gu Zheng did not expect was that Qi Ling, who knew his situation very well, understood that once he no longer suppressed the anxiety in his heart, the leopard beast could not be his opponent at all, so Qi Ling did not expect the leopard beast to be able to defeat him.
Solve it. However, although the leopard monster cannot directly solve Gu Zheng, it can indirectly solve Gu Zheng. As long as Gu Zheng no longer suppresses that kind of anxiety and eats raw flesh and blood, then with him
Under the current situation, it is impossible for him to find himself again! An outsider without self will soon be assimilated into this world and become a part of this world, which will no longer pose a threat to the weapon spirit.
What a threat.
Qi Ling has not been observing Gu Zheng all the time. In addition to the fact that it has determined that Gu Zheng cannot turn around, there is also the speculation before Gu Zheng that everything has two sides. Its response to Gu Zheng also makes it pay for itself.
At a certain cost, its current state also needs a rest.
Gu Zheng really turned into a beast. He had eaten the leopard beast and was now rampaging in the forest. All the beasts he found could not escape his claws. As for the leopard beast that was left on his neck before
His injuries have already recovered to normal after eating the leopard beast.
The killing took place in the forest under the dark night. Gu Zheng had just killed a tiger. This tiger was bigger than the one that chased him during the day. Just when Gu Zheng wanted to enjoy the prey, his head suddenly raised
, blood-red eyes looked towards the sky.
In addition to the moon in the sky, there are also two birds that are somewhat transparent in the moonlight. These two birds look a bit like phoenixes. They both have long tail feathers and their wings can be one foot long when spread out.
They look very weird, but the fact that their bodies are somewhat transparent makes them look very weird.
"Ouch!"
Gu Zheng raised his head and let out an angry roar. Although he was mutated due to the design of the weapon spirit, he still belonged to the category of wild beasts. Although he felt the observation from the air, but for the observation of his two strange birds from the air, he
Apart from roaring, there is no other way to deal with it.
It's a pity that Gu Zheng has completely lost himself at this moment, otherwise he could at least see from the eyes of the two strange birds in the sky that these two strange birds have awakened.
