Chapter 2027

On both sides of the rock, where Gu Zheng and the others could not explore, there were grid-like voids, barely big enough to squeeze two people in. They were sitting cross-legged inside, with their bodies covered in a layer of black mist and sand. Like a sculpture, it is connected to the formation outside.

At the back, there was an obviously relatively open space. At this time, Tang Li was standing in it, and next to him were the men and women who had come out a step earlier. They were also standing on both sides of Tang Li, looking through the translucent wall in front of him. Watching the ancient struggle moving forward cautiously below.

"Master Tang, why don't we take the initiative to detonate the defensive formation, but instead trap them in." The woman asked with some confusion.

As people who have been stationed here all year round, they naturally know this finale formation. They also know that this formation has the ability to self-destruct when it cannot trap others, exerting huge destructive power and most likely delaying time.

"You still have to ask? Did you practice stupidly some time ago? We still need to buy time later. If it detonates, it will not only affect the following, but also cause the transmission to fail. Not to mention that there are so many of us now. Is this the case? They died together in vain.”

Before Tang Li could explain, the man next to him started to explain.

"I was too dizzy and didn't think there was anything to protect behind." The woman patted her forehead and said awkwardly.

After being outside for many years, in addition to being curious about the back at first, but unable to know, I gradually forgot about it. This time I was really negligent.

"The other party is about to arrive at the predetermined location. How about the person who asked you to retreat before?" Tang Li looked at the two of them and suddenly asked.

"We have no people who participated in the formation here. They are all gathered together and waiting for the adults to open it and let them leave. But there is a little regret." Upon hearing this, the man said quickly, "Those people we arrested are all on the upper level. There is no secret passage where the other party is, so those people are still being detained inside. "

"It doesn't matter, we were wrong in our early estimation, otherwise we would have had enough time to move." Tang Li did not pursue the other party's fault, but comforted him, "Now you leave here to assist the operation of the formation, and I am also preparing to move at the right time." opportunity to go down.”

"Sir, do you want them to leave first?" The woman suddenly asked curiously before leaving.

"Yes, after all, we are serving the Lord Demon God. As long as we resist for a certain period of time, we can retreat. At that time, the Lord Demon God will definitely reward everyone." Tang Li nodded, looked at her and said seriously.

The woman and man retreated with joy. The reward from Lord Demon God must be extremely generous, which made them unable to help but think about it. After all, it was very easy for them to leave in this situation.

But they didn't see the cold light in Tang Li's eyes or the hint of a sneer on his lips.

"No one in this place can leave."

After murmuring in his mouth, Tang Li also left.

"It's really strange. Are we overthinking it?"

The two people who were walking carefully below were naturally unaware of the situation above. Mengzhen looked at the silence around him and saw that they had covered more than half the distance, and muttered to himself in confusion.

You know, as long as they speed up this distance, they can rush over in the blink of an eye.

Could there be a trap ahead?

Mengzhen looked over involuntarily, but there was no dangerous atmosphere in the passage ahead. It was just like a very ordinary passage. Except for being fixed by a kind of rock around it, there was no engraved formation.

In the midst of doubts, when they were about to propose a proposal to Gu Zheng, they rushed forward with all their strength. Suddenly, a different change appeared in front of them, causing the two of them to immediately stand still and stop moving.

Around them, ripples appeared in the void without any recruitment, layer upon layer, spreading rapidly towards the surroundings, as if they were already in a strange space.

Gu Zheng stretched out his hand to block Meng Zhen who was about to do something, frowned and looked behind him.

There were also ripples in the distant space, giving this passage an illusory feeling. The entrance they entered had disappeared, and the surrounding stone walls were slowly disappearing before their eyes. They felt that the whole world was changing. .

"It's okay. When we came in, we had already stepped into the other party's trap. But I want to see what changes have occurred in the other party. Now it seems that the other party is very vigilant and has only activated it now. If we don't activate it, it will be really difficult for us to go out. Trouble." Gu Zheng said calmly from the side.

Mengzhen suddenly realized that no wonder he always felt a little strange before, or that he had too little experience and had no understanding of all kinds of strange formations or other things in the prehistoric world.

"Then this is what we do?" Meng Zhen looked at him calmly, putting a brush on his shoulder as if he were a dead body. He didn't know whether the other party could see through their plan, but with his IQ, he was afraid that he would be betrayed at that moment. Know the truth of the matter.

"Yes, this is the opponent's lair. If you want to move forward, you must pass through here, so you must break through here first, otherwise you will always be trapped here, but it seems different from the ordinary formation. ," Gu Zheng understood the true meaning of the dream and immediately explained it carefully.

"We work together. No matter how powerful this formation is, it cannot stop us. We will definitely be able to break it." Meng Zhen also nodded and said.

While they were talking, the ripples around them had slowly stopped and returned to their normal state, but the place had completely changed.

Although the area under their feet was still there, outside, the place that was originally a rock had turned into a dark place, as if it was an endless void. In the distance, some bright spots of different sizes could be seen, arranged in no regular pattern. It vaguely looked like a human figure, as if it was providing mana for this formation.

However, the void in front of them was really an endless void. Even if Gu Zheng stepped into it, he might be completely lost. If he wanted to be completely safe, he would at least have the strength of a quasi-saint to ignore it.

If he really wanted to rush over and kill those stupidly, it would probably be exactly what the other party wanted.

"Boom" "Boom"

Two huge vibrations suddenly sounded in the distance, pulling the two people's eyes back, only to find that in the distance, a huge monster with a height of ten feet suddenly appeared.

This monster had a pair of equally thick thighs, and the bare soles of his feet only took a step, causing the ground to tremble a little, and even left a clearly visible footprint behind him.

There was a body like a rotten corpse on top, with two arms showing white bones, waving a black wooden stick in one hand, and the other hand was a bone claw, waving in the air, leaving a series of terrifying wind whistles.

This was of course not the most peculiar. If it looked like a huge humanoid enemy, but the other party's head had something like tentacles growing out, waving above the head. One of the thickest tentacles had a hideous head on top, and the pupils, which were twice as big as usual, were emitting black light, as if burning black fog, constantly emerging, and watching Gu Zheng and the others from afar as the tentacles danced.

The other tentacles also had heads of different sizes on top, but these heads were all closed, looking like they were in a sleeping state, far less terrifying than the one in the middle.

The overall look was that of a person with a strange head, and more importantly, the other party's aura was even more frightening, no less than a dream really existed.

"It seems that this place is more powerful than we thought. Be careful." Gu Zheng looked at the giant and said solemnly. He could see that this monster was just summoned by the formation.

"I hope we can get through." Meng Zhen grabbed his weapon, the brush, in his hand, and said cautiously while looking at the front.

"Roar"

The head in the middle of the monster opened its mouth and roared loudly. At the same time, the eyes of the other heads opened one after another. The red eyes seemed crazy, and then suddenly lit up. Then, a series of substantial red lights instantly broke through the void and shot towards them.

"I'll do it!"

Seeing this scene, Meng Zhen took the initiative to step forward. The brush in his hand suddenly glowed with a black light. As it danced quickly in the air, a series of black lights that were no less inferior also appeared in the void, no more and no less than the other side, and collided in the air.

There was no earth-shattering sound. The two merged silently in the air and disappeared at the same time, as if each melted the other.

The attack missed, and the head in the middle showed an angry look. Although there was a great distance between them, the huge wooden stick in his hand smashed down directly from the air, and it seemed that it could not touch this side at all.

However, a black shadow entangled with the stick, and when the stick suddenly stopped in the air, it left the body directly and turned into a black tornado. With the help of the huge wind, it rushed directly towards this side.

Facing the attack of the monster, Meng Zhen was not careless at all. With a white wrist, a picture scroll rose in front of him instantly, and then continued to expand, extending to the edge, and then stopped expanding.

A picture scroll that was even bigger than the monster stood in front of them, completely blocking the space in front of them. The fierce black whirlwind rushed directly into the picture scroll, and then the picture scroll shrank back to its normal appearance, floating behind Meng Zhen.

But at this time, the monster had already arrived in front of them. This time, the stick in his hand could directly sweep towards them, and the other hand grabbed towards Meng Zhen. The whole space was originally a long and narrow rectangle, surrounded by the void, and it seemed that there was no way to leave.

Seeing this, the two people jumped up and dodged each other's attacks. Meng Zhen drew a stroke with the brush in her hand, and some rotating black light suddenly emerged from her figure. The whole person seemed to have no gravity, floating in the air without order, like an irregular falling leaf. The seemingly huge bone claw passed by her body every time, like a slippery loach, and could not catch Meng Zhen at all.

Gu Zheng, who was behind, was still falling in the air. Suddenly, under him, the void suddenly opened a dark round hole, and a huge suction force came out from it. In the blink of an eye, Gu Zheng fell into it, as if he was swallowed.

"Gu Zheng disappeared!"

The brush pretending to be dead on Meng Zhen's shoulder suddenly reminded loudly.

With this interference, Meng Zhen was almost touched by the opponent's claws. She dodged the opponent's wooden stick again. Seeing a good opportunity, the black light of her body shook, and her figure fell behind, just in time to see the black fog in the void closing.

"Don't worry about the opponent, you might as well worry about me, how to deal with this monster." Meng Zhen said immediately.

"I can't beat him, so why not wait for Gu Zheng to come out and kill him together." Mao Bi heard Meng Zhen complain and immediately admitted his weakness.

"I don't believe there are monsters you can't solve." Meng Zhen retreated backwards, watching the monster in front of him approaching him, trying to find a way to solve the other party.

Mao Bi didn't respond at this time, and the monster didn't seem so stupid. It stood there and kept attacking, trying to get close to Meng Zhen. Meng Zhen was forced to retreat, but soon he was about to retreat to the back, and there was no way to retreat. Behind him was the void.

At this time, the monster took a step outward, almost occupying most of the area, and then stretched out its bone claws to slap Meng Zhen below.

While falling, the middle of the entire bone claw suddenly lit up layers of black light like a film, completely eliminating Meng Zhen's idea of ​​​​drilling into the gap, and he had to slap it down like before.

Meng Zhen took a look and immediately rushed forward. Even if the opponent occupied most of the space, there were still many gaps.

But how could the monster not think of this? As she moved, the stick in her hand thrust downwards, expanding rapidly in the blink of an eye, completely forming a huge shield, blocking all the paths in front of her, and in the air were bone claws with great power.

Meng Zhen's face remained unchanged, and the brush in her hand quickly drew a few strokes in the air, and then flew out at an even faster speed, sticking to the shield that seemed to have extraordinary defensive power.

The symbols twisted quickly on it a few times, and actually connected end to end to form a semicircular ring, and then with a flash of green light, the scene behind the shield could be clearly seen.

The next moment, Meng Zhen's figure jumped, and her figure shrank in the air, rushing directly into the semicircle, and when she appeared again, she had already arrived behind the monster.

The ghost monster naturally knew the other party's traces, but he didn't quite understand how the other party escaped. Since this method didn't work, he changed to another method. The ghost monster turned around and continued to attack Meng Zhen.

While the battle was going on outside, Gu Zheng calmed down instead. He was not attacked at the first time. He looked at the middle-aged man in front of him, hesitated for a moment and then said.

"Tang Li, right?"

"It's me! Thank you for not killing my daughter." Tang Li looked at Gu Zheng in front of him and said with a smile. There was no hostile atmosphere at all, as if two friends were talking to each other.

During these two sentences, Gu Zheng had already found that they were already in a special place. The space was not big, at most the size of an ordinary room, and there was nothing around. He found that the place under his feet was where they were just now.

He could clearly see Meng Zhen and the monster fighting.

"I won't deal with a weak woman, not to mention that the other party has not done anything bad." Gu Zheng said with a cold snort.

He did not lie, which was why he did not kill the other party. He could easily see that there was almost no killing on the other party.

"So I am very grateful to you. Please stay here for a while. I will let you all go. Everything here will be destroyed, including the people you chased. They will die. Do you think you are satisfied?" Tang Li continued to smile.

"What do you mean? Aren't you afraid that I will catch you here first? You should know that you are not my opponent." Gu Zheng looked puzzled, looked around carefully, and saw nothing suspicious. He said with cold eyes.

"Since I dare to stand in front of you, I am naturally not afraid of you. If it weren't for your kindness in keeping my daughter, I would not be like this with you at this time." Tang Li spread his hands and didn't care about Gu Zheng's threats.

"Why do you want to delay time? And why do you want to work for the demon god?"

Gu Zheng looked down and saw that Meng Zhen was still interacting with the monster. There was no danger and he was even in the upper hand.

This was not beyond Gu Zheng's expectation. A monster with only a few instincts, no matter how strong the opponent is, under the same circumstances, still cannot defeat the enemy, not to mention that the opponent is a monster forced to give birth by the formation. However, if the opponent is a group of people in the Golden Immortal Stage, it is still invincible.

However, he has a little interest in Tang Qing. The other party does not seem to be lured into becoming a puppet of the other party. Instead, he maintains his own self. Judging from the other party's appearance, he is really working for the other party.

He does not think that the other party, in such a critical position, does not know who is above him.

"It's not that I can't say it." Tang Qing glanced at Gu Zheng and said slowly.

"My daughter was once seriously injured. It was thanks to the help of the Demon God that she was saved. He even helped her to improve her cultivation to such a level. I will never be able to repay such a great kindness even if I die."

"But you don't know how much blood and gore the Demon God caused when he was born. Don't tell me that you don't know anything about it." Gu Zheng stared at the other party.

"Of course I know. I have killed countless people and I am guilty of heinous crimes. I am willing to do all this. As long as it is for my daughter, I am willing to give everything." When Tang Li said this, his eyes were still clear, without any guilt.

"If I had known earlier, I would have brought the other party down with me. Otherwise, he would have been very easy to deal with."

Gu Zheng looked at the other party and knew that he was a mentally tough person. He was valued by the demon god, so he was obviously capable. However, his biggest weakness was his daughter. The demon god saved his daughter, so it was no wonder that he was desperate to repay him.

"Then what are you doing here, why are you stalling for time?" Gu Zheng knew that he could not change the other party's mind, so he asked the last question in his mind.

The other party was so deliberate and low-key, and his plan was obviously not small.

"In fact, it's nothing, just refining the origin of the energy for the demon god. Now it is almost formed. It will be teleported away in half an hour. At that time, my mission will be completed, and I will stay away from here with my daughter."

In the face of Gu Zheng's inquiry, he said it without hesitation.

"So as long as we have a good chat, I can even stop the monsters below from attacking. Except for me, everyone lurking outside will die together in the end."
