Chapter 682 A Dilemma

The previous immortal formations were all arranged by people from the Tianxuan Sect and Huang Qi, and Gu Zheng did not participate. Now, having watched two performances of Corpse Tree in the Immortal Formation, Gu Zheng felt that there was an Immortal Formation that should have a miraculous effect on Corpse Tree.

The fairy formation that Gu Zheng will set up is called "Assault". The layout method of this fairy formation comes from the distribution of treasures after hunting the ancient giant insects.

In fact, things like the 'Assault and Killing Formation' are shared resources among the teams in the ancient war. Everyone knows how to arrange it, but arranging the 'Assault and Killing Formation' does not just require drawing the formation patterns. It also requires Some array devices serve as auxiliaries.

There are actually many types of array devices, which generally refer to those things that can be used when setting up arrays.

Gu Zheng took out more than a dozen items. Some of these items looked ordinary like stones, some were as bright as jewelry, and some looked like ornaments made from animal bones.

Gu Zheng used his immortal power to draw formation patterns on the ground, and then placed the formation weapons at different positions on the formation patterns. After changing the hand gestures of his hands, both the formation patterns and the formation weapons disappeared.

The 'Assault and Killing Formation' is a very partial fairy formation. This kind of fairy formation is not very effective when used to deal with people, but it should be very effective when used to deal with zombie trees that have no intelligence.

After telling the people of Tianxuan Sect about the characteristics of the 'Assault Formation', Wan Changshan and others all applauded.

"Now let's wait for it to be destroyed by all the immortal formations. I hope it can be severely damaged in the 'attack and killing formation'!"

Wan Changshan gritted his teeth. He had suffered a loss from the Corpse Tree before.

Several immortal formations were broken by the corpse tree one after another. No one saw much damage to it, but they knew that it was very angry at this time, and Wan Changshan was flying in the air with a series of electric lights chasing it.

Zhi Shu, who was kited by Wan Changshan, finally stepped into the 'attack and killing array' laid out by Gu Zheng.

There seemed to be nothing in the formation, but this did not affect the corpse tree's fury as it kicked and beat randomly in the formation.

Silently, Gu Zheng suddenly appeared behind Corpse Tree, and the Killing Immortal Palm that had been brewing outside hit Corpse Tree directly.

Although there are relatively few use of the Killing Immortal Palm in ancient times, the fully brewed Killing Immortal Palm is still very powerful with his current strength. Normally, a cultivator in the early stage of Golden Immortal will eat this palm in all likelihood. Kill.

"Bang!"

Amidst the dull noise, the corpse tree was hit by Gu Zheng's palm and ran forward a few steps. The corpse on its back was punched into a huge deep pit by Gu Zheng.

"puff……"

The corpse tree stopped, as if a person had been beaten and spit out. It opened its mouth and spat out a stream of yellow liquid.

As soon as the yellow liquid fell to the ground, it immediately turned into yellow smoke. This smoke seemed to be alive and immediately flew towards Gu Zheng.

At the same time, the huge corpse tree turned around, and Gu Zheng saw with his own eyes the deep hole that had been punched on its back. When it turned around, it returned to normal.

"Aww..."

Corpse Tree clenched his fists and roared at Gu Zheng.

The whole body of the corpse tree is composed of rotten corpses. Although these corpses are rotten, they still maintain their human form. They are like strips, and they were made into this monster like building blocks.

When the corpse tree opened its mouth wide and roared at Gu Zheng, the scene was indescribably weird! Its teeth are corpses of different lengths. While it is roaring, those corpses are also sneering at Gu Zheng. Whether it is the light in their eyes or the ghostly laughter, it makes people's heads burn. He felt so heavy that he wanted to faint.

Gu Zheng is not an ordinary person. This kind of spiritual attack cannot defeat his calming skills, but he must leave the immortal formation before the corpse monster actually attacks him. After all, the yellow mist is actually the corpse qi that injured Wan Changshan and Elder Deng before. This corpse qi has unimaginable destructive power on the immortal power protection on the body surface of the immortal cultivator. Once the corpse qi enters the body, it must be grasped Time will get rid of it, otherwise the consequences will be disastrous. This is also one of the things that the Corpse Tree has difficulty dealing with.

Gu Zheng left the 'attack and killing array' before the corpse tree launched an attack on him, and just as he was leaving, Huang Qi suddenly appeared behind the corpse tree and launched a violent blow at the corpse tree.

The name "Assault" is very appropriate. The characteristic of this formation is that the organizer can change the gate back and forth through the immortal formation, and shuttle between the space and reality of the immortal formation elusively.

The 'Assault and Killing Formation' is not very effective for killing people. After all, when entering through the Shengmen, immortal cultivators with spiritual thoughts will be able to detect subtle changes in the formation more easily. But when used to deal with the corpse tree, this formation is very effective. After all, although the corpse tree is also very sensitive in some aspects, it does not have the spiritual thoughts of an immortal cultivator, so it is not sensitive to the kind of fluctuations that enter the immortal formation through the living gate. , it has no way of detecting it in advance.

"Enjoyed, this is so enjoyable!"

Wan Changshan, who came out of the immortal formation, laughed.

Gu Zheng told the people of Tianxuan Sect about the rules of life transformation of the 'Assault and Killing Formation'. Among the six people of Tianxuan Sect, except for Li Qingqiu and that Junior Brother Zhang, the rest of them would also enter the formation to launch a sneak attack on the corpse tree. .

"It's a pity that the formation is already full of corpse energy, so we can't stay in it for too long. But even so, this formation has made a great contribution to the final killing of the zombie tree!"

Wan Changshan was very moved. Although the Corpse Tree is powerful and the yellow liquid it spits out can turn into overbearing corpse energy, the yellow liquid it spits out is actually the same as human blood. Excessive blood loss will make it weak. , and of course it will die as a result.

"Elder Wan, can you also let me enter the formation to experience it?" Junior Brother Zhang begged.

"Qiming, your cultivation level is still low. You can't even withstand a blow from the Corpse Tree. Neither you nor Qingqiu are suitable to participate in such a scene!" Wan Changshan said seriously.

At the same time, Gu Zheng emerged from the immortal formation again.

Everyone's performance in the formation was displayed in the void through magic, and Gu Zheng's amazing combat power was also visible to those outside the formation. Gu Zheng was in the formation just now. Gu Zheng's 'Fire Dragon Technique' and Tang Mo's wild slashes indeed caused the corpse tree to spit out a lot of yellow liquid.

"Senior Bai!"

Looking at the Gu Zheng that appeared, Li Qingqiu called out excitedly.

"Um?"

Gu Zheng looked at Li Qingqiu.

"How do you think the corpse tree will be injured in the immortal formation?" Li Qingqiu said excitedly.

"have no idea."

"How could you not know?"

Seeing Gu Zheng's calm tone, Li Qingqiu said anxiously.

"The Immortal Formation can't last long."

As the organizer of the Immortal Formation, the person who knows the situation of the Immortal Formation best is Gu Zheng.

"Furthermore, I discovered that the Corpse Tree is not as stupid as I thought. In this situation where it couldn't capture the enemy, it failed to use some of its powerful methods."

The powerful methods Gu Zheng mentioned were some of the things he had seen when watching Wan Changshan's battle videos.

"Indeed, it has not used those methods yet, let alone whether it has more powerful methods!" Wan Changshan, who also discovered the problem, said with worry.

"Then what should we do?" Li Qingqiu asked again.

"After the immortal formation is broken, there will only be head-on contact, so be careful then!"

Wan Changshan's voice paused, and then he said: "The Corpse Tree this time is extraordinary. Wait a minute, you and Qiming, decide whether to join the war or not!"

Wan Changshan looked at Gu Zheng again: "Fellow Daoist Bai, do you think it's inappropriate if I arrange it this way?"

Originally, Tianxuan Sect had two more people than Gu Zheng and his team, but now Wan Changshan does not allow Li Qingqiu and Zhang Qiming to participate in the battle. If Gu Zheng is too preoccupied, Wan Changshan's decision is indeed inappropriate. After all, when it comes to resource allocation, , Li Qingqiu and Zhang Qiming are also included in the calculation.

"The two of them have low cultivation levels and don't want to participate in the war."

Gu Zheng is actually very easy to talk to sometimes, and now he has a cooperative relationship with the Tianxuan sect. There are some things that he doesn't want to take too seriously.

Wan Changshan thanked Gu Zheng for his open-mindedness, but Li Qingqiu and Zhang Qiming, one pouted and the other pursed his lips, were obviously not happy with this arrangement.

No one could care about the emotions of Li Qingqiu and Zhang Qiming, because the 'attack and killing formation' was broken by the corpse tree.

Gu Zheng and others immediately flew towards the corpse tree, and launched various magic spells on the corpse tree.

However, Gu Zheng and others were not allowed to fly in the air for long. Corpse Tree's previous method of dealing with Wan Changshan and others was revealed! With its roar, a large area centered on it completely became a restricted air state. If Gu Zheng and others wanted to attack it, it would be impossible unless it landed on the ground!

"Swish, swish, swish..."

When Gu Zheng and others fell to a suitable height, Corpse Tree's real counterattack came. This was a method that Wan Changshan and others had not seen before.

I saw many wrist-thick things shot out from the corpse tree's body. They were like tentacles, lashing out at Gu Zheng and others in the air.

Although I had long thought that Corpse Tree might have some tricks that no one had seen before, when this trick appeared, it was still so unexpected.

Screams rang out, and Zhang Qiming's father was the first to be hit and was sent flying out.

"Father!"

Zhang Qiming screamed in surprise and flew towards the battlefield regardless of Wan Changshan's previous instructions.

"Junior Brother Li!"

As soon as Zhang Qiming moved, Li Qingqiu also flew up.

"Zhi Yang Pearl!"

Wan Changshan roared and offered an orb as big as a goose egg.

The oversized orb is a high-level fairy weapon, and it emits a strong light as soon as it appears.

The strong light was very strange, and it was not dazzling to the human eye, but the corpse tree immediately let out a strange scream, and the 'tentacles' that had been raging immediately wanted to withdraw, and black smoke came out from all over, as if it had suffered a strong burn. Same as roasting.

However, the situation did not improve because of a Zhiyang Pearl. In fact, it only improved momentarily.

"Ouch!"

While the angry corpse tree roared at Wan Chang Mountain, a black shadow shot out from its mouth.

"cut!"

Gu Zheng, with quick eyesight and quick hands, slashed the black shadow's body with his sword, cutting it into two pieces.

However, half of the severed black shadow fell to the ground, while the other half was still flying towards Wan Chang Mountain, and the speed was faster than before.

Everything happened in the blink of an eye. Faced with the flying black shadow, Wan Changshan felt sweat on his forehead!

The black shadow is actually a refined corpse cut off by the ancient struggle, but it carries such great pressure that Wan Changshan seems to have suffered a nightmare. He wants to take action, but he can't even move his feet. , obviously the mind is very clear, but the body is not under control.

"bundle!"

Elder Deng, who was closest to Wan Chang Mountain, offered a helping hand, and a white silk-like fairy weapon was wrapped around the corpse in the air.

However, before the white silk-like fairy weapon could wrap around the refining corpse, the white silk that originally attacked it flew towards Fang Xing who was standing aside.

The next moment, Lian Zhi hugged Wan Changshan, and then there was a loud noise.

The corpse refining exploded. Although Wan Changshan was not shattered by the explosion, it was blown far away.

"Lao Wan!"

Elder Deng screamed in pain. She did not choose to escape and launched another attack on the corpse tree.

"Back off!"

At this moment, Gu Zheng knew better than anyone else that the corpse tree encountered this time was unprecedentedly difficult, and the price to be paid to destroy it was very high.

Unfortunately, people on the Tianxuan Sect side did not listen to Gu Zheng's words, and even Zhang Qiming and Li Qingqiu, who were still weak, joined the fight. Huang Qi and others mainly focused on the ancient struggle. They wanted to evacuate the battlefield immediately, but the corpse tree no longer gave everyone a complete chance!

"Bang bang bang bang..."

The corpse tree roared and trampled the ground violently, causing the entire valley to shake.

Whether it was the roar of the corpse tree or the vibration of the valley, everyone couldn't help but feel sick and weak. This was actually a spiritual attack.

Gu Zheng and Elder Deng's cultivation levels were not bad for an attack of this level. After all, they were both in the late Golden Immortal stage. But for Huang Qi and the others, their speed was immediately affected, and they staggered as if they were about to fall. Li Qingqiu and Zhang Qiming, who had the lowest cultivation level, fell directly to the ground.

The corpse tree, which was like crazy, really didn't give people any time to breathe. As soon as the stampede ended, it roared again with a different tone.

Originally, the corpse tree had no eyes. Its eyes only had an eye socket built by a corpse, and the eyes were two huge black holes. However, along with the uncle's roar in different tones, two strange red flames suddenly appeared in the black hole!

The moment he saw the red flames, there was a roar in Gu Zheng's mind. He used all his strength to calm the mind and save Qingming. As for Elder Deng, Huang Qi and others, they fell to the ground in an instant.

"Ouch..."

The corpse tree roared again, and the 'tentacles' that had been retracted reappeared, most of them aimed at Gu Zheng, and the others aimed at the people on the ground.

"Crazy Crazy Knife!"

A sword appeared as if it was about to open up the world, and all the 'tentacles' that were shot towards Gu Zheng were cut off.

At the same time, Gu Zheng was also horrified. Using the 'Crazy Crazy Sword' was a helpless move. He originally wanted to activate the Immortal Domain to absorb the corpse tree, but if he could not use the Immortal Domain to eliminate the corpse tree, at least it would be a waste for Huang Qi, the others and Tian Xuanzong's people bought some time to see if they could wake up and evacuate to a safe place.

But it was a pity that when Gu Zheng decided to launch the Immortal Realm against the Corpse Tree, he discovered that the Corpse Tree could not be enclosed in the Immortal Realm at all! Although this monster has no spiritual thoughts, it has unimaginable resistance to the space formed by spiritual thoughts.

The helpless 'Crazy Crazy Knife' caused Gu Zheng to suffer some backlash, but the time bought for him was very limited. The 'tentacles' that were shot at other people were about to come into contact with their bodies.

In the flash of lightning, Gu Zheng has only one choice: who among the people present should he save? Although the Immortal Realm cannot take in corpse trees, it can take in people.

However, dealing with the Corpse Tree is not a close-quarters fight, so the distance between everyone is not tight. It is impossible to take everyone in with the Immortal Domain, so Gu Zheng must have a choice.

Regarding the choice, Gu Zheng did not hesitate. After all, Huang Qi and others were friends, but the people from Tianxuan Sect were not.

Gu Zheng disappeared on the spot, and using the characteristics of the prehistoric space, he was already within a suitable range of Huang Qi and others when he reappeared.

The next moment, Gu Zheng rushed into Huang Qi, Yang Jue and Fang Xing into the fairyland before the 'tentacle' shot Huang Qi and the others, and he himself also disappeared.

Although he entered the Immortal Realm, Gu Zheng could still see clearly what was happening outside. He could clearly see the corpse tree's 'tentacles' piercing into the bodies of Wan Changshan and others, causing their bodies to twitch violently. .

Anger filled Gu Zheng's heart, and he tried to awaken Huang Qi and others in the fairyland.

After casting five calming spells on Huang Qi and others, they finally woke up after fainting.

Instead of being able to express their feelings about the magic of the Immortal Realm, after listening to Gu Zheng's narration of the battle situation, Huang Qi and the others were both angry and scared at the same time.

"I didn't expect such a setback!" Fang Xing gritted his teeth.

"Is this picking a successor? First the ancient giant insect, and then the corpse tree. This is only the second floor of the Skeleton Palace. Do we still want people to live?" Yang Jue roared.

Huang Qi is relatively open-minded. At this time, he smiled bitterly and said: "Generally speaking, we are still not strong enough. If we are the mid-to-late stage immortal cultivators of Daluo Jinxian, we may have no choice when facing the corpse tree."

As a descendant of Tie Xian himself, Gu Zheng knew best that the great masters valued the successor's luck when selecting successors, so he was quite tolerant of the difficulty of the treasure.

But even so, Gu Zheng also felt that the difficulty here was a bit too strong.

"Maybe it's not that it's too difficult here, it's just that we are not evil cultivators, let alone evil cultivators who are refining corpses. If we are such evil cultivators, we may know better what the weakness of the corpse tree is!"

While Gu Zheng was talking, he also secretly made a decision in his heart. In the future, if he gets something like evil cultivation techniques, even if they are very evil ones, he will never destroy them casually. Taking a look at them will always give him more insights.

"Why!"

Gu Zheng's words made everyone sigh.

"Fellow Daoist Bai, what should we do now?" Huang Qi asked.

Faced with Huangqi's question, Gu Zheng frowned tightly. This is really a dilemma!
