When Gu Zheng arrived at the Great Trench, it didn't take much time, but the Great Trench was very long and he had a lot to do here, so the passage of time was inevitable.
What Gu Zheng wanted to do in the Great Trench was to find the whereabouts of the three items required for the mission, so as soon as he entered the Great Trench, he left the Heart Demon Bead and used his spiritual thoughts to explore the Great Trench.
It is a relatively boring process.
The rock walls on both sides of the trench do contain various metals, but there are no metals like Xuanyingjin required for the mission. However, Gu Zheng is not discouraged, nor is he anxious. Now the mission is about to end.
, there is still a lot of time, at least the night has not yet fallen, and the time he submitted the task was during the day.
Different from the previous sea area, the number of monsters in this sea area is not too small, and their strength is higher than that outside. Anyway, every once in a while, there will always be one or two monsters blocking the way.
.
Gu Zheng was just concentrating on the exploration, not only looking for Xuanying Jin, but also looking for shell monsters that might produce phantom pearls. As for the monsters blocking the way, they were all left to Hantan monks and his son to deal with.
Gu Zheng's mood didn't fluctuate much along the way. Even if it was still fruitless, he still searched patiently.
When more than half of the daylight hours had passed, and only one-fifth of the length of the Great Trench was left to be explored, things finally took a turn for the better, and this so-called turnaround was a bird hiding in a gap in the cliff.
An extremely large shellfish monster.
In fact, since entering the Great Trench, Gu Zheng and the others have encountered ten shellfish monsters. However, none of these shellfish monsters produce pearls. But for the shellfish monsters discovered this time, Gu Zheng has high hopes for them.
!After all, the shellfish monsters we encountered before all attacked Gu Zheng and the others, but this shellfish monster was hiding in the gaps in the cliff. If Gu Zheng’s spiritual thoughts were not careful enough, even
Can't even discover its existence!
Knowing that after being discovered by Gu Zheng, the huge shellfish monster suddenly became as big as a fingernail. Among the monsters Gu Zheng encountered in this space world, he had seen the kind that could grow in size, but the size could
This was the first time he had seen a monster that had become smaller and smaller to this extent.
The shellfish monster shrunk in size and burrowed deeper into the cliff. Gu Zheng immediately ordered Brother Hantan's son to pull it out. Among the three of them, only Brother Hantan's son had this ability.
Although Gu Zheng has spiritual thoughts, because his strength has not reached the stage of returning to the void in this space world, the light points of spiritual thoughts do not have much attack power, so he has nothing to do in this case. However, Gu Zheng does not
There is a way to pull out the shellfish monster. The son of Brother Hantan can do it. His strength is already in the late stage of returning to the void. The light-band tentacles stretched out from behind can not only absorb the monster's original energy, but also have some attack characteristics.
.
The tentacles of light had already stretched out from the back of Brother Hantan's son and chased after the escaping shellfish monster.
Although the shellfish monster could become smaller, its common problem of slowness did not improve much due to its smaller size, so it was soon caught up by the light-banded tentacles and was tightly entangled.
The shellfish monster that was entangled by the light-banded tentacles did not resist. It was not until the son of the Hantan monk dragged it out of the cliff with the light-banded tentacles that its counterattack really started.
Brother Hantan's son's light-belt tentacles were not very effective in attacking and could not withstand the shell monster's sudden enlargement. It was immediately stretched to pieces and turned into polarized spots, while the shell monster's shell expanded.
After opening it, a strange wave immediately affected Gu Zheng and the three of them. After all, Gu Zheng and Brother Hantan did not stay in the inner demon bead!
The strange fluctuations made people drowsy, even the son of the monk Hantan, who had the highest level of cultivation, was no exception. After seeing the three people falling asleep, the shellfish monster actually stretched out a tongue full of barbs and pointed at Hantan.
Brother Tan's son was rolled over, but Brother Hantan's son, who fell into a coma, was not aware of such a turn of events.
The strange fluctuations are a kind of mental attack. When Gu Zheng suffered a mental attack, the Anshen Technique would automatically operate to help him lower himself, so he quickly woke up, and then the power of the true water in his body vibrated, and the sea water turned into a
Hundreds of ice spears shot towards the tongue of the shellfish monster.
The tongue of the shellfish monster was shot into a hornet's nest by Gu Zheng's ice spear, but this did not cause much damage to its tongue. It only slowed down the speed of its tongue shooting towards Brother Hantan's son, but it was only in the blink of an eye.
Here, Brother Hantan's son had also fought for the control of the mental attack. He woke up from his slumber and quickly flew back.
Seeing that it failed to entangle the monk Hantan's son, the shellfish monster let out an angry cry, which sounded like a wild beast roaring filial piety. Then its tongue flicked, and the ice spear originally inserted on it was directed towards Gu Zheng.
Wait for someone to shoot over.
After this moment of delay, the Hantan monks had also broken free from the control of the mental attack. Therefore, the ice spears that were shot back could not hurt him. They were all resolved by their methods. What followed was the ancient shellfish monster.
The three of them jointly attacked.
The shellfish monster can release weird wave attacks, but this weird wave attack is obviously a big move that cannot be easily launched. Therefore, in the following battle, its shells have been smashed by Gu Zheng and the others.
Still, this effective method has not been used again.
Just when Gu Zheng and the others thought that the shell monster would no longer display that weird wave, the shell monster opened its shell again, and weird waves emanated from it again.
The three of Gu Zheng were hit again and fell into a short-term coma. However, Gu Zheng's ice dragon and fire dragon were not hit. They are not real life forms. Without mental power, they are naturally not afraid of this kind of attack.
Psychic attack.
Therefore, in response to the strange fluctuations released by the shell monster, the ancient ice dragon and fire dragon all shot towards the shell monster's unfolded shell.
In fact, the strange fluctuations of the shellfish monster are not magical powers that require a long time interval to be used, but every time it is used, it will be in a state of exposing its weaknesses, so after releasing the strange fluctuations for the first time, it did not dare to
Easily released for the second time. However, now it has no choice but to use it because its shell has been broken. If it does not use strange waves to seek a breakthrough, Gu Zheng and the others will damage the shell inside it.
Tender meat, that is a very fatal thing.
It's a pity that the strange fluctuations caused by the shell monster put Gu Zheng and the others into a temporary sleep, but Gu Zheng's ice dragon and fire dragon took the opportunity to rush into the shell, and the hot and cold feeling hit them
When it touched the shell monster's body, the shell monster immediately closed the shell in pain.
The moment the shell closed, the force was very strong, and it directly broke the ice dragon and fire dragon that broke into the shell into two pieces. However, the ice dragon and fire dragon were not real life forms, and their bodies were broken into two pieces.
It didn't kill them either. They were still in the shell of the shellfish monster and launched a crazy attack on its body.
Gu Zheng and others woke up from their slumber one after another and launched attacks on the shell monster. Under this coordinated attack, the shell monster soon died.
When the son of the monk Hantan opened the shell of the shell monster, Gu Zheng's spiritual thoughts also penetrated into it. Of course he was looking for pearls.
The shellfish monster lived up to expectations. It was special enough and indeed contained a pearl within its body. However, this pearl was not the colorful pearl that Gu Zheng wanted. It turned out to be a black pearl as black as ink.
The original hope turned into disappointment at this moment, not only for Gu Zheng, but also for Brother Hantan and his son! After all, more than half of the day has passed, and there is still nothing found in the trench, but there are three items needed for the mission.
So many, this is really a reality that makes people feel a little panicked!
"Let's move on!"
Gu Zheng didn't want to show too much disappointment, so he took the lead and flew forward, continuing to use his spiritual thoughts to explore the remaining section of the trench. As for the black pearl he had just obtained, he casually threw it into the inner demon bead.
, placed together with the white pearl obtained previously.
However, a strange meditation took place in the inner magic pearl. Two pearls, one black and one white, touched each other, and then burst out with dazzling light.
Although Gu Zheng was not the owner of the Heart Demon Bead, he had owned the Heart Demon Bead for a long time. Although others were not in the Heart Demon Bead, he could still sense some strange changes in the Heart Demon Bead in time, so he hurriedly
Go into the Heart Demon Bead and check it out.
In Gu Zheng's surprised eyes, the two colliding pearls finally completed the combination and turned into a radiant orb, which was exactly what the clay giant wanted.
"It's true that the flowers planted with intention do not bloom, but the willows with unintentional planting create shade!"
Looking at the colorful pearls in hand, Gu Zheng couldn't help laughing. The Hantan monks and his son, who were originally surrounded by loss, were also brought into the inner demon pearl by Gu Zheng to witness the transformation of the two pearls.
The two of them were also extremely happy! After all, one of the three items required for the mission was finally obtained.
After obtaining the Symphony Pearl, Gu Zheng's luck seemed to have improved. During the subsequent exploration of the Great Trench, although Xuanying Jin was not discovered, they found a cave at the end of the Great Trench.
The cave in the Great Trench was a strange place for Gu Zheng. He had experienced several caves like this, and none of them were ordinary. Even though he knew in his heart that the more he raised his hopes, he would be more likely to be disappointed, but for this hidden cave
In the cave at the end of the Great Trench, Gu Zheng and the others couldn't help but gain hope.
After entering the cave on the cliff, Gu Zheng used his spiritual will to open the way ahead, while he and the Hantan monk and his son followed behind.
Gu Zheng's brows gradually furrowed as he moved forward. His spiritual mind had already explored the bottom of the cave, where he discovered a strange existence.
The strange existence has the body of a woman, but has a head that looks like a sea anemone. When it discovered Gu Zheng's spiritual will, it immediately hid in a crack on the side.
Gu Zheng did not disturb the sea anemone witch for the time being. He thought this sea anemone witch was very strange.
First of all, he saw enough intelligence in the eyes of the sea anemone monster. That intelligence not only gave him the feeling that he could search for souls, but also made him feel that the other party could talk to him.
It stands to reason that a monster that can talk is the kind that can issue tasks to Gu Zheng, but the strange thing is that the sea anemone banshee is not protected by the power of law. In other words, she is one of those who can be killed.
kind!
What's more important is that there is a piece of metal on the forehead of this sea anemone witch. The color of the metal is very similar to the Xuanying gold demanded by the clay giant.
After telling Brother Hantan and his son about the situation detected by the spiritual sense, Brother Hantan and his son were very excited. It was difficult for them not to be happy that Xuanyingjin was found so quickly. Brother Hantan's son even volunteered to ask for help from Gu Zheng.
He said he wanted to capture the sea anemone banshee. He was the best at catching such things hiding in the cracks of the cliff.
Gu Zheng did not approve Brother Hantan's request for his son's life. He felt that that special feeling seemed to be born. It might be due to the exploration of his spiritual mind, so the dish was not born directly! Therefore, he wanted to see it with his own eyes.
Make your final decision after passing the Anemone Banshee.
Gu Zheng took the Hantan monks and his son to the bottom of the cave very quickly, and the sea anemone banshee that was originally hidden in the cracks of the stone actually got out of the cracks on its own at this moment.
"Enter, that's great!"
The Anemone Banshee looked at Gu Zheng and others speaking, with surprise and panic in her eyes.
"Yes, it is indeed great!"
The son of Brother Hantan licked his lips. His eyes were always on the forehead of the Anemone Banshee. The piece of metal there was sufficiently attractive to him.
Seeing the look in the eyes of Brother Hantan and his son, the Sea Anemone Banshee took a step back in fright, then covered her forehead with her hands: "You can't distract it. If you take it away, I will die!"
"If you don't let me take it, then I won't take it?"
"alright!"
The son of Monk Hantan wanted to have some fun, but was interrupted by Gu Zheng.
"What's the name of that piece of metal on your forehead? Why will you die if you take it away?" Gu Zheng asked.
"This is not metal, these are the exogenous bones of our clan, and they are also a gift from the royal bloodline. Their names are golden royal bones!"
"Master, don't listen to her nonsense. There are still exogenous bones. This is clearly a piece of metal, and it is clearly Xuanying Gold!"
As soon as the sea anemone demon girl finished speaking, the Hantan monk hurriedly spoke.
Gu Zheng did not agree with the words of the monk Hantan, but he did not say anything more about it. If he did not have control over this immortal-level space fairy weapon, he would not have that special feeling. If he did not have that kind of
With the emergence of a special sense, he would not know that the Sea Anemone Demon Girl was lying! But the Hantan monk did not have this special sense, so it was not surprising that he would think that the golden royal bone on the Sea Anemone Demon Girl's head was Xuan Ying Jin.
"Why did you say it was great to see us?" Gu Zheng asked again.
"Because only those who enter can save my sister! So, I want to beg you, save my sister."
The sea anemone banshee looked at Gu Zheng pitifully, and at the same time Gu Zheng also felt the request of the mission.
"Where is your sister? How can I save her? What's the benefit of having her? What's the harm of not being able to save her?"
Gu Zheng is very cautious. If he hadn't developed a special feeling for the sea anemone banshee, then when faced with this situation, he would definitely search the sea anemone banshee's soul to confirm what she said.
, already knew what she knew. However, Gu Zheng did not do so, because the special feeling made him understand that if he searched for the soul of the sea anemone banshee, then the sea anemone banshee would die from searching for the soul, because she herself
Too weak.
Nowadays, the sea anemone banshee who is too weak to be protected by the power of law and Gu Zheng can do anything to her has actually sent a mission request to Gu Zheng. So Gu Zheng naturally has to ask clearly about the details of the mission!
After all, no matter whether you are weak or strong, with the existence of a task request, the things you agree to will be protected by the power of the law, so there are some things that need to be asked clearly, either you accept it or you don't accept it.
"I can't tell you where my sister is! Unless you promise me first to help me rescue my sister."
Come on, things are not that simple after all. This weak sea anemone banshee didn't even tell Gu Zheng what he wanted to know right now.
"Then you have to at least tell me, if I agree to save your sister, what are the benefits, and what are the penalties for not being able to save her?" Gu Zheng asked again.
"If you can't save her, it's my sister's fate. There's no punishment. If you can save her, I'll just be grateful to you. There's no reward."
The Sea Anemone Banshee looked at Gu Zheng with a look of disgust. This attitude made Monk Hantan's son extremely dissatisfied. He opened his mouth and cursed: "Are you mentally ill? How dare you talk to my master like this?"
Gu Zheng waved his hand to control the anger of Brother Hantan and his son, and what he said next made the eyes of Brother Hantan and his son widen.
"Okay, I promise you, tell me where your sister is!"
Gu Zheng would agree because the past made him feel that the situation he encountered was a bet, and in the end he chose to bet. He felt that helping the weak sea anemone banshee was right! If the bet was wrong
, he didn’t feel any danger, and felt that it was just a waste of time, but if the bet was right, Gu Zheng felt that he could get benefits, and even the benefits he got were related to the tasks issued by the clay giant! Although the sea anemone girl
The demon said that there was no real benefit in rescuing her sister, but just because she said it, it didn't mean that her rescued sister wouldn't give her anything.
"Very good!"
The sea anemone banshee cheered, and Gu Zheng agreed to help. There was a contract between her and Gu Zheng, so there was something round and shiny in her hand.
At first glance, Gu Zheng and the other three couldn't help but get excited when they saw the round and bright thing, because it looked so much like a mirror, and among the three mission items Gu Zheng needed, there was a sky mirror.
However, what the anemone Banshee took out was not a mirror, it was like a piece of black ice, bright and transparent.
There is not nothing in the transparent black ice. There seems to be a mountain and a vast ocean sealed there. In the vast ocean at the foot of the mountain, there is a head exposed, and judging from her appearance, she is a sea anemone.
