Chapter 1789

"Get out of my way? Are you going to fight now?"

The bald man over there was obviously not as angry as the woman next to him, but said in a calm tone.

"Of course not, after all, there are still a lot of you. I just came to warn this kid, don't go with these people, be careful behind you." The leader was a young man with a hedgehog head. He stretched out a finger in the air and shook it when he heard the bald man say that.

Seeing the bald man's face suddenly turned pale, he laughed and walked away with his people.

He liked this aggressive momentum very much. The other party's anger but not daring to fight really made people feel comfortable from the bottom of their hearts. These days, the bald man was very embarrassed by both soft and hard tactics. One person had been forced away before, and now they just happened to lack one. After fighting with others in the previous period, even if the injury was not healed, they came here to provoke again. Anyway, the other party dared not resist.

Although only two months have passed, Gu Zheng has been resting with his eyes closed and has not gone out, but he also knows that one of the original three people disappeared alive in front of him, which should be the other party's lifespan here.

The other two were also stimulated by this and entered the archway, but they were never seen coming back.

After the bald man and the woman lost three teammates, it was obvious that the people around them looked down on them. Although the cultivation here was the same, the incident here was also very serious. Although for some reason, both sides would not fight to the death, but when one side suffered a loss, it would definitely be unpleasant.

At least in the surrounding area, in just two months, there would be a fight every few days on average. If the two sides were evenly matched, both would lie down, and others would not take advantage of the situation to provoke, and those who were at a disadvantage would be beaten up by the advantaged side.

However, Gu Zheng could understand these people a little. After all, if they were bored in this place day after day, normal people would get sick. Moreover, here, the air could vaguely feel the anxiety hidden underneath, which would explode at any time.

However, another thing surprised Gu Zheng very much, because when those people were fighting, the black fog disguise on their bodies disappeared and they returned to their human bodies. Even some monsters could turn into their own bodies. If they were equally powerful, they would definitely crush humans.

It was not until later that he realized that in this place, this could slow down the speed of physical loss, which made him sigh in his heart. Even if the battle consumed more, he had to vent his inner feelings. It can be seen that the atmosphere here is particularly tense.

And the bald man obviously didn't want to be bullied, and tried to win over some people, but they didn't want everyone, at least they had to look so good in their hearts. After all, people with different beliefs can't work together, and they don't want to endure with different people.

"Brother Tietou, Miss Yingxi, otherwise I'll withdraw first. I'm alone over there. You pull someone and I'll come over." Although the man didn't say anything at the time, he was obviously a little worried when he came here, and said to the two bald men.

"Okay, you have to be careful, it's not so peaceful over there. If you need it, feel free to find us." The bald man looked at the people and horses not far away, who were groaning in pain. He heard it clearly here, knowing that the other party was a little timid, and said helplessly.

"Thank you." The man said gratefully, and then left first.

"Really, it wastes a lot of our time." The woman named Yingxi said with some dissatisfaction when she heard it.

"Forget it, I can see that the other party really wants to buy us some time. If we weren't so few in number and rarely cause trouble, we would have been beaten up long ago. After a while, I feel that I'm ready and want to go in again." The bald man said to Yinghua without any regrets.

"We'll go together then." Yinghua looked at the bald man with a firm look, completely ignoring Gu Zheng who was standing aside.

"Ahem"

Gu Zheng looked at the other party with a deep affection, and it seemed that they had known each other before, but he had to interrupt.

"Brother Gu, you're awake, is there any difference here for you?" The bald man turned his head and said to Gu Zheng, and Yinghua next to him seemed a little shy and left directly from the side.

"No, I didn't feel absorbed. Maybe it doesn't affect humans." Gu Zheng understood what the other party was talking about and said to the bald man.

Gu Zheng didn't feel the power here, but he realized that the spiritual energy here was full of resentment and negative auras. If he wanted to absorb it, he would need to spend a lot of energy, and he couldn't even get twice the result with half the effort. This was the biggest impact.

"Are you going to go? Even if you don't say it, I have to remind you. After all, if you fail, it will take a long time to recover. If you go too late, the time may not be enough." The bald man said to Gu Zheng.

"Well, I know, I hope to succeed at once." Gu Zheng smiled and said confidently.

"I hope so. After all, there are too few people who succeed at once. Come on! I don't want to see you come back." The bald man looked at Gu Zheng who was full of confidence, and didn't say anything else, but cheered him up at the end.

Gu Zheng nodded, and then walked away without looking back.

Along the way, the human demon souls looked at Gu Zheng very curiously, and they looked gloating over his misfortune. Even the mocking words kept entering Gu Zheng's ears along the way, trying to interfere with him.

But unfortunately, these words really had no effect on Gu Zheng.

Soon he came to the huge archway and stood still. The width was only the size of a house. He looked up at the huge entrance, which seemed like a giant beast that would eat people and wait for people to fall into its trap.

Although the entire archway looked extremely huge, there was only one entrance, which was more than ten feet wide, but there was no door, so people could enter at any time.

The entire entrance was pitch black, and you couldn't see or feel the inside. It was just terribly quiet.

Just as Gu Zheng was observing, suddenly a figure flew out from inside and fell directly to the ground in front of him in a very embarrassed manner. The whole body was curled up and trembling violently, as if he had experienced something terrible.

Gu Zheng took a deep breath, then walked past the failed demon soul and walked inside.

However, when he stepped inside, his figure paused, stretched out his hand and waved it to the back, indicating the bald man who was secretly following behind, and then stepped in.

As Gu Zheng entered, the noisy sound behind him suddenly disappeared, and even the door behind him disappeared. Only the red crystal in his hand was emitting a faint red glow, illuminating the surrounding area within a radius of ten feet. In the distance, it was extremely dark and nothing could be seen.

Gu Zheng also felt that under an inexplicable pressure around him, his strength was rapidly declining. In just a few breaths, he was like an ordinary person. He couldn't even feel the mana in his body, not to mention the magic weapon he was carrying, which was like an ordinary thing.

The only difference was the kitten on his body. Gu Zheng could still feel the other party, but thinking of the other party's previous words, it was probably the same as Gu Zheng.

He didn't move forward, but stretched out his arm and twisted it hard.

"Hiss"

A strong pain came from his arm, making him gasp. It seems that this place is really like a mortal.

After waiting for the pain to subside, Gu Zheng continued to move forward. At this time, he hadn't entered. This place seemed to be a transit space. Although there was no danger, you would always be here until you die.

People coming in from outside cannot meet him, just like being locked in a dark room until you move forward again, and the lives of the demon souls here are still fading, forcing them to move forward.

Of course, Gu Zheng couldn't feel the strange power, hiding here to study is a good idea, but unfortunately he must get through within half a year, or fail three times, otherwise he will be thrown into the endless void, and that's when he will really die without a burial place.

Just a few more steps, an ordinary stone door appeared in front of Gu Zheng, surrounded by stone walls that stretched for an unknown length.

There was only a shallow groove in the middle of the stone wall, just right for the red crystal in Gu Zheng's hand, and Gu Zheng put it in without hesitation.

"Boom boom"

As the crystal was put in, the heavy stone door was slowly pushed open with a somewhat harsh stone mill vibration sound, and as the stone door was opened, a dark breath that seemed to have been sealed for thousands of years came to his face, and at that moment, even Gu Zheng, who had been prepared, felt cold all over and trembled suddenly.

After more than ten breaths, Gu Zheng slowly recovered from that feeling, and his stiff body walked towards the stone door mechanically.

As he entered, the stone door behind him suddenly closed again, and at the same time, a sound like a ghost crying and a resentful laugh came from a very far distance, indicating that Gu Zheng officially began to break into here. Either he failed to get out, or he successfully reached the deepest altar and left here. There was no other way.

"Pah Pah"

As the stone door closed, two light sounds were heard on the side, and then two lights like kerosene lamps suddenly lit up from the wall, vaguely illuminating the surroundings.

And below, there was a red square table, and the big red color looked so weird under the candlelight.

However, there were a few things on the table that people could see at a glance.

A stone emitting yellow light, as big as a fist, flashing yellow light on its body, and a few small stones emitting crystal blue light next to it, nothing else.

Gu Zheng knew that this was the only item that could help him leave here, so he went forward and picked it up without hesitation.

The yellow stone looked big, but in fact it was not as heavy as those blue pebbles. He could hardly feel the weight in his hand, and it automatically emitted a faint yellow light as Gu Zheng intended, like a candle on his palm.

This light could illuminate everything within a radius of three feet, but even at a distance, the brightness disappeared sharply, and it could be said that he could not see anything outside.

However, this was the only lighting information inside, and the blue stone was only used as a signpost, but there were only five of them, which was too rare compared to this huge area.

And there would be nothing to help him except those ghosts inside.

The yellow light in Gu Zheng's palm dimmed again, and with the help of the weak candlelight, Gu Zheng came to the only stone door and listened to the sound outside.

However, outside at this time, he could only hear some wind sounds like ghosts crying, and no other sounds.

As the stone door made a noise that was neither too loud nor too small, Gu Zheng finally walked out.

However, Gu Zheng frowned when he looked at the stone door, because the sound was too harsh, and it was too easy to attract enemies in such a silent tunnel.

Even though Gu Zheng had been very, very careful to open it, the sound was made just when the stone door was half open and just allowed Gu Zheng to go out, as if it was deliberately preventing him from leaving quietly.

With a sigh, Gu Zheng put away his thoughts. It seemed that the bald man was right. He still couldn't take advantage of the situation.

Looking at the pitch black space on the left and right, Gu Zheng could only see a little bit in front of him, and he couldn't even see clearly what was on his shoulders.

Gu Zheng had no choice but to light up the yellow light, otherwise he couldn't even see his shoulders, and he was no different from a blind man. Then the yellow light rose from Gu Zheng's hand again.

I have heard this scene before. In fact, it is just a change in appearance. Others include cities, woods, deserts, etc., but they are all the same. Anyway, I can only find the way out in this maze-like place.

It sounds very simple, but it is actually too difficult. Even if you know the way and there are no enemies, it will still take a long time, not to mention those ghosts that follow you hauntingly. Once caught by the opponent, That would mean complete failure.

"jingle"

A long ringtone came from a distance, just like a wind chime hanging on the edge of the window. As the breeze came, it swayed gently, emitting that beautiful lingering sound. People couldn't help but immerse themselves in it and listen to the sound hidden in the window. Stories in sound.

However, Gu Zheng's face suddenly changed when he arrived, and then he identified the direction, and then moved towards the opposite direction of the sound.

"Deng Deng Deng"

Gu Zheng started running directly on the ground. Although it was a flat ground, there were loud footsteps, especially in this tunnel of any height, which was even more obvious.

After just running a few steps, Gu Zheng remembered it, stopped immediately, and walked ahead at a normal speed. Although the footsteps were still there, they were already very small.

If Gu Zheng slows down again, his voice will be quieter, but his speed will also be slower.

"If you come in unprepared, you will definitely suffer a lot."

Gu Zheng slowed down to a certain level and thought to himself at the same time.

The bell behind him never rang again. I don’t know if it went far away or if it was out of range of the other party’s voice. In short, at least it was safe now.

As soon as I came out, I encountered a ghost. This was terrible luck.

After picking up his mood, he walked along again. This tunnel was barely big enough for two people to walk together, and it was still relatively spacious for him. Within a few steps, a crossroads appeared in front of Gu Zheng.

Looking at the darkness around him, Gu Zheng's body was trembling slightly, not because of fear, but because there was a very cold breath in the air. Even though his body was different from ordinary people, he was also a little cold, and There was a constant sound of ghost crying in the air, just like the cry of a baby that kept ringing in Gu Zheng's heart, making him feel a little upset and he could only suppress it forcefully.

Pick an intersection at random and walk there again. As for luck, you can only rely on luck. Anyway, the only thing you know is to find a brightly lit hall and leave here.

Gu Zheng kept walking at a leisurely and constant pace. He didn't know how long he had been walking. He estimated that he had been walking for at least half a day. Until this time, there was still no trace of the edge.

Every distance there is an identical crossroads or three-way intersection, but the only thing that is certain is that he feels that he has been walking in a general direction. Although it is not very useful, it can eliminate a corner, which is a stupid method. A little bit of troubleshooting.

But the scary ghost didn't appear, which made Gu Zheng feel a little relaxed because he was so nervous. Maybe they were all in another place.

But just as Gu Zheng finished his thoughts, a pleasant ringing sound suddenly sounded in the passage, and the sound seemed to come from not far ahead.

This suddenly startled him, and he immediately stopped and slowly squatted down, then began to retreat towards the back.

"jingle"

The sound sounded in the air very regularly, and at the same time, Gu Zheng's mind suddenly felt dizzy, as if a familiar and kind voice rose in his mind, asking him to walk over.

"Steady, steady!"

A thin layer of cold sweat broke out on Gu Zheng's forehead. He squatted down again and sped away from here. At this moment, he felt a little bit of the feeling that the other party said, because this voice was not a temptation from the other party, but rose from the bottom of his heart, even if he also He suddenly stopped and stood up, trying to lean over.

But the voice was still approaching Gu Zheng, and it seemed that it had discovered traces of Gu Zheng.

Gu Zheng tried hard to keep his breathing steady. He must not run at this time. The other party would definitely hear his voice and chase him. There was no place to hide around. In this place, the physical exertion would be greater, and he would soon be beaten by the other party. Get caught.

Fortunately, there was a passage not far behind Gu Zheng. When he didn't notice the other party's appearance, he retreated toward the untraveled path behind him. After turning the corner, he immediately stood up and continued to retreat slowly.

Slight footsteps sounded in Gu Zheng's ears. Every time he could hear his own footsteps clearly, vibrating his chest like a drum. Coupled with the sound of the bell getting closer and closer in front of him, it made him want to Quicken your pace and get out of here.

"Gulu"

Gu Zheng straightened his neck and swallowed his saliva with difficulty. He felt like a big drum, and his heart seemed to be jumping out of his heart. He had to stop and take a breath, otherwise he would explode.

"Dingling"

At this time, the ghost was still approaching this side, and he was less than three feet away from the intersection, and still far away from the next intersection.

Gu Zheng immediately turned off the light in his hand, leaned against the corner, and waited quietly.

When he saw the other party coming out, he would know where he was going. If he was going towards him, he could just admit defeat.

After a few breaths, a red light appeared from the front, and the ghost was about to come out.
