Chapter 2011

After Ren Xue finished speaking, there was still no movement in front of her. She also maintained her last action, always keeping her head down and motionless.

"Get up."

A slightly vicissitudes of life voice sounded, and Ren Xue raised her head and looked forward.

Two huge eyes and mouths grew on the trunk of the original huge ancient tree, and the words just now came from the other party's mouth.

"Who did you meet this time when you went out?" The ancient tree wolf said casually.

"It's not that I went to meet the other party, but when I was delivering things to those villagers, I met two foreigners, a man and a woman. I have warned them, and I think they will leave soon." Ren Xue said with a lowered eyebrow.

"Leave? I hope they will do so. If I find them and find this place, there will be a greater punishment for you." The wood wolf said disdainfully, and at the same time, a branch the size of an arm emerged from his body, and he rushed carefully from Ren Xue.

"Hmph"

A bloody hole suddenly exploded on Ren Xue's back and chest, and the golden light hidden inside was instantly destroyed. The huge pain made Ren Xue hum carefully, sweating profusely, but she held on tightly to prevent herself from making a painful groan.

Mulang would not show mercy to women, and directly used the most violent means to eliminate the mark buried by Gu Zheng.

"This time I came to let you prepare for the final sacrifice. Seven days later, it will be the time when the moon is waning. At that time, it will be the last opportunity for the sacrifice ceremony. Now you go down and help with Mu Tian. Don't make any mistakes, otherwise you will bear the consequences!" Mulang pulled back his branch and arranged it below.

"I will definitely arrange everything properly, please rest assured, Lord Mulang." Ren Xue took the order directly, and then turned around and retreated to the back. The wound behind her was still bleeding, staining her back red.

It was not until she left this place that Ren Xue's calm face showed a trace of pain. She simply treated the injury on her back and walked towards her room.

"Seven days? It should be in time. No matter what, I have to try. I will not give up on you, Master, and my grandmaster."

In her luxurious room, Ren Xue sat in her usual resting place, staring at her palms, muttering.

In her palms, streams of black blood flowed slowly inside, and then disappeared faintly.

"Hmm"

Gu Zheng, who was looking for this side outside, suddenly stopped and covered his mouth. A stream of blood flowed out from the gap.

"What's wrong with Gu Zheng?" Meng Zhen saw it from the side and asked worriedly.

"It's okay. The mark I left on the other party was destroyed. I just suffered a little backlash." Gu Zheng wiped the blood from his mouth and said.

"Did the other party disappear here? We searched for a long time and didn't find any suspicious places. These trees all look a little sick, which is really uncomfortable." Seeing that Gu Zheng was indeed fine, Meng Zhen said with some complaints.

"I think we should find the other party's place. Follow me." Gu Zheng said to Meng Zhen.

There was a trace of his own consciousness on the mark, otherwise he would not have suffered such a great backlash. At the moment of being destroyed by the other party, he also learned the approximate location of the other party, which was not far from them.

"Are you sure it's here?"

Meng Zhen followed Gu Zheng for a stick of incense, and then stopped in front of a mountain. Seeing him constantly groping in front of him, he couldn't help asking.

"It should be behind this mountain. Maybe we should go around it."

Gu Zheng raised his head and looked at this not-so-high mountain range, which only stood in this small area, but he didn't dare to turn over like this. He vaguely sensed that the other party's territory was behind him. He went there so openly, really not afraid that the other party would discover his existence.

"Hidden here, I don't know what the other party thinks, it's too easy to be discovered." Meng Zhen also felt a special breath inside, but was still a little surprised.

Although this place is secret, if you really know that the other party is in this area, it will be easy to find here.

"How should I know, follow me." Gu Zheng started to move to the left, motioning Meng Zhen behind to follow.

The outside of this mountain range is in an arc shape, bulging in the direction they came from. However, the further they go, the more a faint white mist rises around them, and it becomes thicker and thicker. Later, Gu Zheng couldn't even see Meng Zhen's face, so he stopped.

"Is this their outer formation? I didn't feel any murderous intent, but it is extremely secretive. The mark on the other party should be gone here." Gu Zheng felt the surroundings and followed carefully.

"Then what should we do next?"

Meng Zhen sensed the surroundings. Except for the mountain in front of her, everything else was trapped in the white mist. She couldn't see through here at all. She knew that if she kept walking by the mountain, she would never reach the end, because they were already in the formation, and this mountain was a flaw left for them deliberately.

"The person who set up the formation has good skills, but unfortunately his strength is a bit low."

Gu Zheng's words made Meng Zhen nod. This place is also a bit clever. It is not difficult for people above Daluo to pass through. She has several plans in her mind to go out or in. The key is which way to sneak in quietly, which is actually a bit difficult.

"It just so happens that Pan Xuan gave me a treasure before she left. Just use it a little bit. Follow me closely."

As Gu Zheng spoke, a dim red light emerged from his body, covering him and Meng Zhen.

Meng Zhen was surprised to find that through the hazy red light, the outer white fog had disappeared. Only then did he realize that they had walked for so long, but they had only walked a few hundred meters.

"It's really useful. If you perfectly integrate yourself into the formation, no one will find any abnormalities."

Gu Zheng felt the difference next to him and praised it. This thing can be regarded as a rare treasure just for this effect, not to mention that it is just a small function of the other party.

The product of the ancestor must be a fine product. Gu Zheng labeled it.

They walked along for only half an hour and came to the gap of the mountain. Looking inside, there was a small valley that was exactly the same as the outside, as if it was a shrunken mountain. There were two identical crescent-shaped gaps at the exit.

The small valley was inside the large valley, and it was definitely built by humans.

"So that's how it is. Use the intersection to gather the spirit veins? No wonder the spirit energy here seems so scarce. It turns out that it was forcibly plundered here."

Looking at the terrain inside, Gu carefully followed.

And there is an answer over there. The spirit energy over there is reduced, and naturally everything will slowly decline. Naturally, the surroundings will also be carefully followed. The liquids that Ren Xue gave to the other party can greatly reduce the burden on the other party's body. No wonder those people are so happy.

"What should we do next?"

The two hid behind a boulder. This place is out of the range of the white fog and does not need to rely on the red light. However, there are several black-clothed guards guarding the only entrance. Obviously, it is not easy to walk in under the other party's nose.

Gu Zheng looked around and thought of some ways in his mind, but he rejected them one by one. There was a wide enough distance in the middle, and there was no obstruction. In front of the other party's entrance, there was also a layer of extremely hidden formation. The other party's cultivation was also at the peak of the Golden Immortal. If they wanted to break the formation without attracting the other party's attention, even they could not.

This time, a defensive array has been opened around the valley to prevent them from sneaking in from other places.

"Someone is approaching from outside, and it is estimated that they will come here soon." Meng Zhen suddenly said.

"This is a bit difficult to deal with. Let's wait and see if we can find an opportunity to go in."

Gu Zheng looked at the tightly guarded valley and had no choice but to retreat and think of a way. This entrance was less than ten feet away. In order to avoid alerting the enemy, he did not squat here.

The two people withdrew from the entrance, and then found a hidden place not far away, and then opened the surveillance array left there, just in time to see the entrance.

Soon, a dozen black-robed people came in from outside carrying some wooden boxes. Not long after, some people came out again. After leaving a certain range here, they soared into the sky and didn't know where they went.

For three consecutive days, Gu Zheng and his men watched the other party go in and out, as if they were busy with something.

"We have to find a way to get in. The other party seems to be doing something." Gu Zheng said to the people who kept going in and out with a serious look.

Considering what Ren Xue said before that she would not come again, it was obvious that something happened inside.

"I think we might as well go in and kill them. Anyway, with your strength, you can kill even Wen Tianhou, and at least you can fight with the peak of Daluo. Why should we be afraid of them? I am sure that the other party must not be a quasi-saint, or even the strength of the peak of Daluo, otherwise they would not hide in this remote place." Meng Zhen suggested on the side.

"What you said is right, but things are not that simple." Listening to Meng Zhen's suggestion, Gu Zheng explained with some laughter and tears. The other party's thinking is still accustomed to the following things, which is so violent and simple. I really think I am so strong. If that's the case, there is no need to think of a way here and go straight to the door.

"This is very simple. After three days of observation, I found the opponent's fatal weakness."

At this time, the brush suddenly jumped out and said.

"Oh? What do you think you can do?" Meng Zhen turned his head and looked at the brush next to him, and asked curiously.

"We just want to go in and not alarm anyone, right?" The brush shook in the sky, his tone full of pride, and he seemed to have a plan in mind.

"Of course, as long as we go in and figure out the situation first, it would be better if we can find Ren Xue. Only in this way can we prepare for what happens inside. Don't think that the other party will easily let us take them away." Gu Zheng said affirmatively.

"It's not too difficult in this case. I have already taken you in." The brush said confidently.

"Tell me where it is? You are shaking me so hard that my head is dizzy."

Meng Zhen quickly grabbed the brush with a light hand. It was already this time, and he was still keeping it a secret, which made her very dissatisfied.

"Wait a minute and follow me. I have seen through the flaws of the other party's outer formation in three days. I can buy three breaths of time. As long as you take me across, it will be fine." The brush's body flashed with light and slid out of her palm.

At this time, there were still a few people from the other side rushing towards this side. After the other party went in, the two of them, one brush each, went in and went around from the side to the side of the valley inside.

"Are you ready? You only have three breaths of time. Then, go in directly through the temporary passage I opened."

When he estimated that the distance was about the same, the brush stopped, leaving a stone-mill-like fountain in the air, reminding them to enter from here later.

Seeing Gu Zheng and the others nodding, a faint golden light lit up at the tip of the brush, then moved towards a point in front of them, and disappeared into the void with their entire body.

The next moment, on the mountain range in front of them, within the circle he had just drawn, a golden light spot appeared in the middle. In the blink of an eye, it expanded into a golden channel, carefully connecting with the outside.

Gu Zheng and Mengzhen didn't hesitate, they jumped in. The next moment they appeared in a strange place and heard the sound of a brush begging for mercy.

"Xia Nu, spare your life!"

"Ren Xue, stop!"

Gu Zheng saw Ren Xue grabbing the brush in mid-air and immediately whispered.

"Why are you guys? Stand there and don't move." Ren Xue's eyes narrowed, and she instantly inserted the brush into her hair, then threw it forward, and a green light covered the bodies of Gu Zheng and Mengzhen.

Then Ren Xue squatted down in front of Gu Zheng, tilted his hand, and a seed sank into the soil under his feet. Several green branches and leaves broke out of the ground almost in the blink of an eye, stretching his body and swaying slightly in the air. With.

At this time, there were more than a dozen dense footsteps nearby, coming from all directions and surrounding them. There was also a half-yellow but not green branch in their hands, gathering towards this side.

"Lord Ren Xue, you are here."

After more than a dozen of them came here, they did not come forward. They just stopped where they were and observed the branches in their hands. One of them stepped forward and said politely.

"I'm really sorry. I accidentally alarmed everyone again. I still haven't fully mastered the spells Master Timber Wolf taught me." Ren Xue stood up, stroked the ends of her hair, and faced them with an embarrassed face. apologized.

"We were reckless, but Lord Mutian told us not to take it lightly during this period. We are on strict alert."

"I know, I just feel something in my heart. I will pay attention these days. I really caused trouble for you." Ren Xue did not look down on the other party because of his identity. She said politely and at the same time gave up her body to make it easier for the other party. Be aware of what is happening behind you.

"We have to go back and continue to be vigilant. Lord Renxue takes his leave."

The man glanced at the branch in his hand, then glanced at the situation in other hands. After finding nothing suspicious, he immediately left with the others.

Gu Zheng, who was standing there motionless, seemed not to notice them, so they retreated.

Ren Xue waited until they left and continued to take care of her little sapling. Unfortunately, after half a day, the small branch that grew into it fell down without any care.

"Hey, it's such a pity that we failed again this time."

Ren Xue shook her head, then sighed and left here, as if she had forgotten that Gu Zheng and the others were standing still and left without giving them any prompts.

However, Gu Zheng and Meng Zhen understood what the other party meant by shaking their heads at the end. It seemed that they were regretting their own spells, but in fact they were telling them not to move.

In this way, Gu Zheng and Mengzhen stood here for two full days. During this period, they watched some people walking back and forth busily. Even they could feel the tension in the air. It seemed that something would soon happen. Things are about to come, and the Holy Gui in their mouths makes Gu argue at a loss, not knowing what the other party is doing.

When there was a sudden silence, Ren Xue appeared in front of them again. After subconsciously looking around, she said to Gu Zheng and the others.

"Follow me and don't make a sound."

Soon Ren Xue took them back to the place where she lived. It was a very simple room with no extraneous things except the most basic things. There were two rows of such rooms next to it.

"crunch"

After Ren Xue closed the door and put a simple soundproof barrier on it, she breathed a sigh of relief.

"Why are you here? Do you also know that my master and the others are in danger?"

She felt that Li Le and Gu were fighting together, and the two might have an unspeakable relationship. Perhaps they came here after sensing each other's danger. Otherwise, the world is so big, why would they pass by this place where birds don't shit? And even after entering that town, it was obvious that the specific location of the other party could not be found.

"Can you tell me what's going on specifically? How is Li Le doing now?" Gu Zheng didn't reveal anything, but just asked the question in his mind.

"After I left last time, I rushed back with my master. She was also detained in the backyard as a prisoner. When I tried to rescue my master, I still failed. She was also captured. In two days, they were completely devoured. At that time, Timber Wolf will use the power to perfectly restore his own strength and break away from the shackles of the ancient tree. "

"As for my situation, you also know that after discussing with the master on the road, I finally found out the other person's identity, so I personally captured the master. However, in order to guard against me, the other party left a restriction in my body to control my life and death. , I have to serve them, of course I just compromise and want to find a way to rescue our master and the others. "

"As a result, this time I lost both my husband and my army. Instead of rescuing the master, I trapped the master."

Ren Xue quickly said to Gu Zheng to let him understand his current situation.

Although Ren Xue's words were a bit fragmentary, Gu Zheng probably still understood what happened and asked the most critical questions at the first time.

"How strong is the other party? And those subordinates, why do they feel a little strange."

"They were just ordinary people, but later they were bewitched and parasitized on him. All their cultivation was brought by the parasite, and he completely belonged to the other party from both body and mind. However, from the surface, the other party thought he was favored and was extremely loyal to him, looking no different from ordinary people."

Ren Xue pondered for a moment and continued.

"As for the other party, he calls himself Lord Mulang, and his strength is in the middle stage of Daluo."

"No way, in the middle stage of Daluo, it seems that he is not as strong as you." Meng Zhen said a little exaggeratedly.

Originally, she thought that the other party was at least in the late stage of Daluo, or even the peak of Daluo, but his cultivation was similar to Gu Zheng, which meant that the other party would definitely die.

With the combat power that Gu Zheng admitted himself, he would not be afraid of even the peak of Daluo when he burst out with all his strength, let alone a middle stage of Daluo.
