Chapter 465: Sacrifice the Car to Save the Driver

There was a not too difficult restriction on the small gold box, and Gu Zheng opened it without much effort.

"Okay! I thought there would be resources in here, but I didn't expect it to be these things!"

Miao Miao looked at the open box. Although there was disappointment in his words, his eyes were still attracted by the things in the box.

"Yeah, I didn't expect that the box was all filled with gold and silver jewelry." Gu Zheng shook his head.

What was placed in the box was indeed gold and silver jewelry, most of which were finished jewelry, such as necklaces, earrings, rings, hairpins, headdresses, etc. The rest were gemstones that had not been deeply processed. If these things were sold for money, their value would be really hard to estimate. After all, the smallest gemstones inside were like quail eggs, and the largest opal was as big as a goose egg.

Gu Zheng raised his hand and touched Miaomiao's smooth hair, smiled and asked, "Would you like some jewelry?"

"want to!"

Miao Miao smiled, with joy in her eyes.

"Forget what's in the box. It seems that they have been used by others. When I have some free time, I will make some for you myself!"

Although Gu Zheng has never made jewelry, he is not a mortal after all. It is not a problem at all to use the 'true fire of life' to refine some metals and use immortal power to set a few gems.

"Thank you sir!"

When she heard that Gu Zheng was going to make her hand ornaments, Miaomiao jumped up while holding Gu Zheng's arm.

"You should spend more time on practicing when you have time!"

Qi Ling snorted coldly, while Gu Zheng smiled slightly and walked towards the fourth room without saying anything.

The immortal formation on the stone door was quickly broken by Gu Zheng, and the sound of cracking ice could be heard in the room again. However, this time was different from last time. There was no gold box in this ancient battle.

Just like the third room, there are still four huge monsters in the room that look like humanoid corpses.

"Sir, let me do it!"

Miaomiao asked for orders, and after Gu Zheng nodded in agreement, she quickly got rid of the four monsters.

"If the stone gate hadn't been opened, they would have thawed. I really don't want to take action in such a situation. It's so dirty!"

Even though he was not stained by blood, Miao Miao still waved his sleeves in disgust.

There were no treasures, only monsters, and Gu Zheng didn't want to waste time killing them. But if you don't kill them, they will definitely not be grateful for it, so it is useless to waste time on this.

After carefully checking the room, he still found nothing of value, so Gu Zheng had no choice but to take Miaomiao to the next room.

"This is already the fifth room. I don't know what will be in this room."

Gu Zheng input the immortal power into the stone door of the fifth room, and soon broke the immortal formation on it.

The stone door opened, and a one-foot-long gold box was placed in the center of the room. It looked like the one in the third room. Although there are no monsters in this room, the golden box cannot be obtained easily. Gu Zheng has sensed the existence of the immortal array, and if he wants to get the golden box in the room, he must first break the immortal array.

"There is no danger for the time being, but it does not mean that there is no danger in the immortal formation. This immortal formation is somewhat similar to the three-level immortal formation that I have experienced before, but it is a relatively simple first-level immortal formation. And the 'heavy' in the immortal formation does not completely refer to It’s the number of layers, and the true meaning of this ‘heavy’ refers to the high-level immortal array with the immortal array space.”

Qi Ling's voice slowed down, and then he told Gu Zheng how to crack the immortal formation. When encountering such a high-level immortal formation, Gu Zheng's current attainments in the immortal formation were not enough to deal with it.

Following the guidance of the weapon spirit, Gu Zheng broke open the immortal formation. After his eyes wandered for a while, the scene he saw had changed. It was still in that small room, but there was no gold box here, and there were only four monsters attacking Gu Zheng.

Gu Zheng entered the fairy formation space with Miaomiao. Faced with such a situation, the two of them naturally did not panic and immediately used their means to fight back.

The four monsters in the fairy formation space look different from the previous ones, and they can also spew some evil energy. Generally speaking, they are more powerful than the monsters encountered before. However, even if they are powerful, at most they can kill immortal cultivators in the Qi Transformation stage. For Gu Zheng and Miaomiao, they still do not pose much danger. The two of them quickly killed all four monsters.

The space shook again, and the scene in front of him returned to the original room. There was no blood and severed limbs on the floor, only the gold box placed in the center of the room.

Although he had easily eliminated four monsters in the fairy formation space just now, Gu Zheng's expression was not so relaxed.

There are so many rooms in this ruins. According to normal logical thinking, the more valuable something is, the closer it is to the deep layers, and the danger will become stronger. Now we are only in the fifth room, and we have already encountered the Immortal Formation, and as soon as we enter the Immortal Formation, there are attacks coming all over us. This is not a fun thing!

The four monsters that were killed just now are not very powerful, but if there is something that can threaten the immortal cultivators in a certain immortal formation, and they still attack as soon as they enter the immortal formation, it will be easy to defeat them. People are caught off guard, resulting in losses.

"I hope there will be a good harvest!"

Gu Zheng broke the immortal formation on the golden box, and the box lid immediately popped up. What came into view finally made Gu Zheng smile on his face.

The things placed in the box are all cultivation resources, mainly medicinal materials. Among these resources, the ingredients that can be used for cooking are all ordinary! Although there is no shortage of ordinary-level ingredients in Guzheng, after all, this is only the harvest in the fifth room. I believe that as it continues to deepen, the resources and grades that can be obtained will definitely improve.

Time passes quietly, and different events are happening in different locations of the Tianluo Cave treasure.

In the quiet corridor, the sound of slight footsteps would be amplified. Lu Qi really didn't want to make any sound, but he had no choice.

At this moment, Lu Qi's face was no longer domineering. He looked back in fear from time to time, and he still had serious injuries on his body.

Recalling the scene that happened not long ago, Lu Qi still had lingering fears. Maybe he was lucky, otherwise he would have died.

"If you don't have profound attainments along the way to the Immortal Formation, you will really suffer in this damn place. What kind of damn things are released!"

Looking back at the way he came from, Lu Qi cursed bitterly, with struggle and hesitation appearing on his face.

Lu Qi had really been planning for this treasure in Tianluo Cave for many years. He thought that as long as he could get into the treasure with a treasure map, he would be able to make a lot of money, but he never thought that the treasure Maps are simply useless here.

During the period of separation from Cao Yi, Lu Qi also relied on his own strength to enter several rooms and obtained some things. However, most of these things were gold and silver jewelry, and there were really few cultivation resources.

Now that he was seriously injured, it was a bit unrealistic to open the door to hunt for treasure again, but Lu Qi was unwilling to leave the treasure just like that. After struggling and hesitating, Lu Qi decided to find a place to recover first.

After walking forward for a while, Lu Qi felt that the thing chasing him would not come over. He sat cross-legged on the ground and quickly started to exercise his energy and adjust his breath.

The injury was quite serious, and the internal organs were severely damaged. Even though there were good healing pills, the healing process would take at least two hours to return to 80% of what it was at its peak. And if you want to be completely cured, it is simply impossible without two days.

Lu Qi decided to return to 80% condition first, and then start hunting for treasures. After all, the security time of Tianluo Cave was only seven days in total, and he didn't want to waste it at all.

Lu Qi thought that the place where he was now was safe, but what he didn't know was that the place where he was now was not safe at all. At least Gu Zheng and Miao Miao had heard his footsteps just now.

"Judging from the footsteps, this is the sound made by a person who is injured and whose immortal power is unstable and then runs quickly." Qi Ling whispered.

"Who could it be? Lu Qi? Cao Yi? Or someone we don't know?"

Gu Zheng's muttering stopped, and a sneer appeared on his lips: "No matter who it is, everyone who appears here is an enemy."

After giving Miaomiao a wink, Gu Zheng and the others began to approach where Lu Qi was.

When Gu Zheng and Lu Qi were still in a cooperative relationship, Lu Qi's extraordinary performance in the first level of the triple immortal formation had Qi Ling telling Gu Zheng that this Lu Qi was not simple, and his senses were very sharp! And Lu Qi's keen sense was also demonstrated again at this time!

Gu Zheng had just seen Lu Qi sitting cross-legged, and Lu Qi had already jumped up. Under normal circumstances, it was impossible for late-stage immortal cultivators to discover them so early, not to mention they were still in the state of healing. Gu Zheng's sneak attack plan failed.

"Don't come here!"

Although Gu Zheng had a smile on his face, Lu Qi still stopped coldly.

"What's wrong with you? Are you scared out of your wits? Or is our cooperative relationship over since you and Gongsun Changsheng escaped from the triple immortal formation?" Gu Zheng smiled faintly.

Lu Qi frowned, and there was an imperceptible doubt in his eyes, and then he laughed: "I didn't expect, I really didn't expect that the ancient leader and Miss Miao Miao could actually come out of the 'still space'!"

Lu Qi really didn't expect to see Gu Zheng and Miaomiao again, so when he saw Gu Zheng and Miaomiao, he was frightened and jumped up.

But now, Lu Qi is calm. Regardless of whether Gu Zheng knows his identity or not, he cannot force the other party to the opposite side like a hedgehog. This is not a wise choice.

"Yeah! We didn't expect it. This is really a bit of luck. What's wrong with you? Where is Gongsun Changsheng?"

Gu Zheng smiled and continued to move forward. He wanted to paralyze Lu Qi with his smile.

"Stop, Master Gu, don't come over yet!" Lu Qi said.

"What do you mean?" Miao Miao said coldly.

To be honest, Gu Zheng didn't want to fight with Lu Qimoji, but whether it was entering the prehistoric space for a sneak attack or the magical power of the immortal realm, he had already used it today. Without the support of these two means, at such a long distance, he was not sure that he could kill Lu Qi within a suitable range. As for this suitable range, it is speculation caused by Lu Qi's injury! After all, Lu Qi himself was a cultivator in the late stage of becoming a god. What on earth could have injured him like this and made him run away? Gu Zheng had to consider these factors.

"Don't get me wrong, Master Gu. I don't mean anything else. It's just that there are a lot of weird things in this treasure. Master Gu and Miaomiao came out of the 'still space', which makes me have to doubt what's going on in front of me." Master Gu and Miss Miao Miao are still not the two people I know well," Lu Qi said.

"I understand what you mean. Don't you just want to verify our identity? Tell me, how do you want to verify it?" Gu Zheng said with a smile.

"Master Gu, as long as you give me some of your and Miss Miao Miao's clothes, I can verify your identities."

Lu Qi sneered in his heart, as long as he got some clothes from Gu Zheng and Miaomiao and within a suitable distance, he would have more trump cards.

"Scheming a person through things like blood and hair is not uncommon. It's also possible to calculate a person through things like clothing, but it's just more difficult and rarer. It seems that Lu Qi wants to use these things to plot against you and Miaomiao!" Qi Ling said.

"You want our clothes, are you trying to use them to plot against us?" Gu Zheng asked with a smile.

"How could it be? The ancient master has heard that a person can be plotted through blood, hair and other things, but have you ever heard of a sorcery that can plot a person through foreign objects such as clothing? Besides, even if it is calculated through Using blood, hair and other things to plot against a person is also a legendary evil technique. In today's world of cultivation, have you ever heard of anyone using such evil techniques?" Lu Qi smiled bitterly.

"Well, I really haven't heard of it." Gu Zheng shook his head: "In that case, then do as you say! After all, in such a dangerous place, it would be better for someone to cooperate."

"If Master Gu can think like this, that's great! Let's make an oath later and treat each other sincerely when we cooperate. As long as we join forces, we won't be afraid of any dangers in this treasure!"

Lu Qi was really excited, and he was really thinking that if he could hold Gu Zheng and Miaomiao's clothes in his hands, it would not be impossible to cooperate sincerely in this treasure.

"Meow meow, give me your personal jade talisman."

What Gu Zheng wanted didn't exist at all, but Miaomiao understood what he meant, took it out of his pocket, and said, "Here!"

Gu Zheng's palm touched Miaomiao's hand, and there was an extra jade talisman in the palm that was originally empty.

"This is the jade talisman for the two of us, please take it!"

Gu Zheng casually took out the jade talisman from the ancient space and threw it to Lu Qi in the distance.

After Lu Qi took the jade talisman, a trace of blood from his fingertips adhered to the two jade talismans without leaving a trace. After looking at them pretendingly, he threw them towards Gu Zheng again.

"It seems that it's really Master Gu and Miss Meow Meow!"

Lu Qi laughed loudly. He didn't care at all whether the two people opposite him were the original Gu Zheng and Miaomiao. What he cared about was just tampering with the jade talisman.

"Of course it's the two of us!"

Gu Zheng also laughed and walked towards Lu Qi again.

Originally, Gu Zheng thought that Lu Qi could find out from the jade talisman that it was not theirs at all! If such a situation happened, all they could do was to hunt him down, but who would have thought that Lu Qi didn't notice it.

"I hope our cooperation this time will be very pleasant. We can all make a lot of money from the treasures of Tianluo Cave." Lu Qi said.

"Of course, we are already in the treasure. If we don't make a lot of money, wouldn't it be a big loss?"

Gu Zheng's voice paused, and then he said sincerely: "Fellow Taoist, what's going on? With your ability, how could you be so seriously injured?"

Lu Qi was indeed seriously injured, not to mention his internal injuries. There were already several cracks in the turtle shell immortal weapon on his body.

"Hey, don't mention it!" Lu Qi sighed: "Master Gu still doesn't know that after you were trapped in the 'Still Space', Gongsun Changsheng and I cooperated to open the treasure door, and then we parted ways at the first intersection. Then I ran into some trouble here..."

Before Lu Qi could say anything, Miaomiao, who was at a suitable distance, suddenly took action, and two sharp claw winds struck Lu Qi like lightning.

"asshole!"

Lu Qi cursed. He was not defenseless against Meow Meow, so when faced with Claw Wind's attack, although he was angry, he did not panic.

Lu Qi's eyes widened instantly as he dodged the claw wind. Gu Zheng, whom he had always underestimated, took action, and the location of the attack was the only way for him to avoid it! And the momentum contained in Gu Zheng's palm made his heart tremble.

"Bang!"

Amidst the huge noise, Gu Zheng's palm hit the target. Unfortunately, Lu Qi, who had been wearing a turtle shell, retracted his head at the critical moment. This palm failed to kill him, and could only kill him both human and turtle. The shell belt flew out.

Now that he has taken action, there is no need to worry that the dispatch of the energy of heaven and earth will be discovered. Meow Meow, who has dispatched the energy of heaven and earth, suddenly appeared behind him, a shadow that looked like a cat and a rabbit, and hit the turtle shell hard.

"Crack!"

"Bang!"

Two loud noises were made one after another, one was the cracking of Lu Qi's turtle shell, and the other was the burst of red light from the cracked turtle shell, which offset the shadow behind Meow Meow.

"Whoosh!"

Gu Zheng, who was in Tang Mo's hand, used the 'Mountain Knife Technique' to swing out a sword force, and once again struck Lu Qi's turtle shell, causing the turtle shell to make a cracking sound.

Lu Qi, who was hiding in the turtle shell, was very anxious. When he was attacked by Meow Meow, he had already started to activate his movements. Unfortunately, the jade talismans were not worn by Gu Zheng and Miaomiao. There was almost no breath of Gu Zheng and Miaomiao on them. The counterattack power of the evil magic would naturally not be able to affect Gu Zheng and Miaomiao.

Although the tortoise shell immortal weapon shouted fiercely, Gu Zheng and Miao Miao were more powerful. Hiding inside would only mean death. However, Lu Qi did not dare to expose his head and limbs in this situation. The situation was extremely critical.

"Turtle, I wonder how long you can hide!"

Miao Miao shouted, and the shadow behind him appeared again, but this time the shadow's attack was not to hit or pounce, but to open its mouth to bite.

At the same time, Gu Zheng's Tang Mo had raised his sword again, and the whole knife was surrounded by Peng Bai's energy of heaven and earth. He chopped fiercely at the tortoise shell with a momentum of opening up the world.

Even if he was reluctant, Lu Qi could no longer hesitate at this time. He had to sacrifice the car to save the king.
