Chapter 919
In the puppy's memory, although it has never had any interactions with the Toad Beast King, it knows that the Toad Beast King has a lot of intelligence.
A ferocious beast with considerable intelligence and a king within a thousand miles, Gu Zheng felt that it should be able to provide him with some useful information.
"come out!"
Gu Zheng's voice was like a storm, involved in the Toad King's cave.
After a while, an 'old man' with many bumps on his head came out of the cave.
Gu Zheng originally thought that even if the Toad Beast King had a high level of intelligence, he would not be able to transform. After all, it was not easy for a ferocious beast to transform, and the Toad King's cultivation level was not too high. However, the Toad King actually transformed, and the image of this so-called 'old man' really looked like an old man.
The higher the intelligence, the easier things are to handle. Gu Zheng immediately used his spiritual mind to tell the 'old man' that he wanted to search his soul.
Gu Zheng's attitude is very tough. If you don't want to die, you can only do what he says. No matter which plane you are in, strength is the most important thing.
The 'old man' didn't express any objection. He stretched his knobby head toward Gu Zheng. Gu Zheng was not polite and immediately started searching for his soul. The 'old man' didn't dare to play any tricks.
Through the soul search of the 'old man', Gu Zheng also learned more about the world outside the circle. It is indeed a larger plane than the prehistoric world, and it also has a range similar to the division of states. Nowadays, all the places Gu Zheng has visited in this plane are only extremely remote and barren lands in the 'Western Frontier'.
The people who dealt with Die Ling and Angry Man were a relatively large "sect" organization in Western Xinjiang. The guys Gu Zheng had seen in the time return were all high-level members of the "sect".
After learning the useful information, Gu Zheng immediately rushed towards the 'sect' where those guys belonged with a 'shooting star chasing the moon'.
at the same time.
Liuhua County in Western Xinjiang, in a huge mountain gate on the outskirts of the county, a man in colorful clothes, who looked like a butterfly, opened his eyes from sitting cross-legged with his eyes closed.
The outside world is different from the prehistoric world. The demon cultivators here have transformed into shapes after cultivating. Although they look somewhat similar to humans, they still look very weird. There are also differences in aesthetics and so on, just like in the prehistoric world. Among them, if a man dresses like a butterfly, this is definitely not a normal aesthetic.
In addition to his weird clothes, the butterfly-like man also looks weird. His mouth is a fleshy tube that is not too long, and there are four small eyes arranged in a diamond shape on his forehead, like compound eyes of insects.
After Butterfly Man opened his eyes, the four compound eyes on his forehead immediately flickered on and off quickly. He was using his own methods to deduce the danger he had sensed before.
After a while, Butterfly Man sent a message, and four other weird-looking guys soon came to the room where he was.
"Brother, what happened if you summoned us here so urgently?"
Among the four weird-looking guys, a strong man with a height of one foot and a round waist spoke. He looked the most human-like among these people. At least on the surface, he did not have any characteristics retained by the monster incarnation. At this time, the few people in the room had all participated in the original battle in the ruins.
"The two outsiders we captured in the ruins a few years ago have now caused us trouble. I just calculated that the people who rescued them have now entered Liuhua County." Butterfly Man said.
"Brother, how many people are here to rescue them?"
A monster with two heads, like an orangutan, and wearing golden armor spoke. According to the names in ancient times, they should all call Butterfly Man 'sect master', but in the world outside this circle, in an organization similar to a sect, the leader and the sect master are both eldest brother or eldest sister.
"There are two, and one of them should be in danger, so I asked you all to come over for discussion." Butterfly Man said.
"Brother, what's the point of discussing this? Now that they're here, don't even think about leaving. Just catch them."
The only female among the four spoke up. According to ancient beauty standards, her appearance could not be considered ugly, but could only be considered very enchanting, with a typical waist and fat butt.
"Yes, there is nothing to discuss. If we can kill the person who came, we can also see if he has brought anything good from outside the circle."
The person who spoke was so skinny that it was unbelievable that he looked like an upright frog.
"The current situation is not 11 years ago. Eleven years ago we were eight people against two."
Butterfly Man frowned, picked up a bowl of blood-smelling wine and drank slowly, obviously thinking about what to do.
"It depends on the situation."
After a while, Butterfly Man spoke. He hadn't seen the enemy yet, so it was hard to say anything.
After a while.
"The people in charge come out!"
There was a sound outside the mountain gate that reached the ears of Butterfly Man and others.
Butterfly Man and the others all stood up. The sound that reached their ears was not loud, nor did it sound menacing.
"Let's go and take a look!"
Butterfly Man flew out of the mountain gate with everyone and saw Gu Zheng and Miaomiao standing outside the mountain gate.
"A few years ago you captured two of my men in the ruins. Today I'm asking you for help." Gu Zheng said straight to the point.
"Your people took my stuff, and if they take it out, I can let them go."
Butterfly Man's eyebrows folded and his eyes lit up a few times, and the sense of danger in his heart increased.
"I don't want to cause trouble. I want to see my people first and ask about the situation." Gu Zheng said.
"Do you think you are..."
"Okay!"
The two-headed gorilla was interrupted by the butterfly man before he could finish his angry words.
"Brother, this man is so arrogant. Who does he think he is? It would be great if we could kill him together!" The two-headed gorilla sent a message to the butterfly man.
"If he dares to speak so arrogantly, he must have a certain strength. Moreover, the person who is talking to us now is not his real body. It is better for everyone to stay calm!"
The few times when the butterfly man's eyebrows were bright, he saw that the Gu Zheng in front of him was not his real body! This is something Gu Zheng did not expect. After all, the earth fetus clone is the most difficult to detect among all the clones. The reason why he could see through Xiao Qi's clone was because of the spirit of the weapon.
"If you want to see it, just look!"
The skinny frog laughed strangely, and the black robe on his body opened up. Gu Zheng was able to see that in his skinny abdomen, there was something like an hourglass, and in the two spaces of this thing, the butterfly spirit and the angry man who were sitting cross-legged were trapped.
The skinny frog flicked the hourglass lightly, and a circle of halo passed over the hourglass. The butterfly spirit and the angry man opened their eyes at the same time.
"Master!"
When they opened their eyes and saw Gu Zheng, the butterfly spirit and the angry man cheered immediately.
Gu Zheng's clone nodded to the butterfly spirit and the angry man, and then asked: "They said you took their things, what's going on?"
"Master, this is what happened..."
The butterfly spirit began to tell Gu Zheng the whole story. Through her story, Gu Zheng also knew what happened to them.
A few years ago, the butterfly spirit and the angry man did not get anything in the ruins hall, but in the previous exploration, they got a treasure chest in a side hall. The so-called "their things" in the butterfly man's mouth refers to this treasure chest.
Die Ling and Nu Han were trapped in the hourglass, but they did not suffer any damage. The main feature of the hourglass is to trap them, and secondly, to slowly wear them down. If they stay in the hourglass for another two years, they will become wastes that cannot use their immortal power and divine thoughts, and will be slaughtered by Butterfly Man and others.
During the years trapped in the hourglass, Skinny Frog also asked Die Ling for the box many times, but Die Ling never agreed to give it to him. There are two reasons. One is that there are some things in the box that can be used by Gu Zheng, such as food from the outside world and a small amount of resources to repair Xingxu Mountain. The other reason is that without the box, there is almost no guarantee of safety. Who knows what Skinny Frog and others will do.
"You have already obtained most of the treasures in the ruins. If it is just this box, you have trapped my people for so many years. Even if it is compensation, you let my people go. Can you just let it go?"
Gu Zheng didn't want to cause trouble. This is the outside world, which is a battlefield that is unfavorable to them. Moreover, because of the lack of understanding, there is a greater possibility of unexpected variables! Therefore, in dealing with this matter, Gu Zheng's plan is to do less trouble than more.
"Are you dreaming, or are you used to being domineering in your plane? This is not your plane. Not a blade of grass belongs to you here, let alone a treasure chest!"
The thin frog seemed very angry, and the other people, except the butterfly man, all had similar expressions.
Gu Zheng's clone frowned, and after thinking for a while, he said, "Okay! You don't need the treasure chest, but you can let my people out and I'll give you the treasure chest!"
"Why do I feel that you don't have any sincerity? You came to our plane and were caught by us again. Instead of giving us benefits to redeem people, you are either thinking of taking advantage or not being at a disadvantage? How can there be such a good thing in the world!"
The bee waist woman smiled sinisterly, and then said, "I am really curious. This is an outside world that is not good for you. Why can you be so bold? What gave you such courage? Are we too kind?"
What the bee waist woman said was right. This is indeed an outside world that is not good for Gu Zheng and others. The most obvious difference is the energy contained in the air, which is not the immortal essence in the prehistoric world. If you just practice in silence and convert the energy here into absorbable immortal essence, there is no way, such as the 'Nine Months Food Cultivation' created by Gu Zheng, or converting energy through the immortal formation.
However, if you fight with others, the disadvantages will be magnified! For visitors from the prehistoric world like Gu Zheng, the immortal power is used up as time goes by. It is impossible for them to consume and absorb at the same time like in the prehistoric world. If they want to replenish immortal essence here, they can only rely on pills like the Immortal Yuan Pill. However, taking the Immortal Yuan Pill to replenish immortal power requires time to guide the vigorous immortal essence that suddenly appears in the body, otherwise the collision of the immortal essence will cause internal injuries, which will be counterproductive! Therefore, the method of taking the Immortal Yuan Pill to replenish immortal power is not suitable for practical use in the ever-changing fighting methods.
More importantly, because the energy contained in the air is different, all immortal arts that need to increase their power by dispatching the energy of heaven and earth will be greatly discounted! Although immortal essence does not represent the energy of heaven and earth, it is the main component of the energy of heaven and earth.
"The energy of heaven and earth is different, but the great way is connected. After reaching a certain level of cultivation, what matters is the dispatch of the energy of heaven and earth, and the control of the power of Tao."
The clone of Gu Zheng paused and said coldly: "The reason why I am so bold is that I am used to being domineering in my plane! For me, I will make the conditions just now, which is already a big concession. If you don't even agree to my conditions just now, then this matter can only be solved through fighting! If you want to solve the problem through fighting, you must also consider your disadvantages. This is your mountain gate, and there are many of your subordinates here. You are not afraid of death, but what about your subordinates? Will it be a pity for you to die? And once the fight starts, the conditions I made before will be declared invalid!"
"Are you threatening me?"
The butterfly man frowned. After all, he is a big brother. Even if he is afraid of Gu Zheng, he will lose face when someone comes to the mountain gate and threatens him.
"Yes, I am threatening you. Whether to accept my conditions or not is in your hands." Gu Zheng's clone said.
"Looking for death!"
The two-headed gorilla roared, and while the two heads roared, they also sprayed flames and ice mist at Gu Zheng's clone.
The intense heat and terrifying cold air approached Gu Zheng's clone. The gorgeous phoenix eagle wings behind Gu Zheng's clone spread out, and the Chaos Tower flew up and cast a shield above his head. He quickly evacuated to a distance.
Gu Zheng's clone was not strong, but he could use all the immortal weapons belonging to Gu Zheng. Immortal weapons like phoenix eagle wings and Chaos Tower were not very useful for Gu Zheng when fighting with others, so it was not bad for him to use them.
"Swish..."
"Buzz..."
Two strange sounds came from the mountain gate. The man with a height of one meter grew wings behind him, and the woman with a wasp waist grew wings behind her. The two of them chased after the fleeing Gu Zheng's clone and butterfly spirit.
"Don't go!"
The two-headed gorilla also wanted to chase, but the butterfly man stopped him. He had long understood that Gu Zheng's clone and Meow Meow were just a trick, and the Gu Zheng's original body who never appeared was the highlight. What's more, Gu Zheng's clone mentioned his subordinates just now, which made him have to guard against luring the tiger away from the mountain.
The butterfly man made strange sounds, and the compound eyes on his forehead shot out beams of light, and began to scan the open space in front of the mountain gate. He wanted to see if Gu Zheng's true body was hiding somewhere.
At this moment, many of the butterfly man's subordinates had gathered in the mountain gate, with a total of more than a thousand. When such a thing happened in the sect, they were naturally ready to fight at any time. However, their strength was not good. Only the butterfly man and a few others were equivalent to the quasi-saint realm. As for the monsters below this realm, they were all garbage to Gu Zheng.
"Evil beast!"
Among the monsters, a guy who looked a little wretched and looked like a raccoon suddenly opened his mouth and roared.
The air rippled, and the effect of the raccoon's roar was extraordinary. More than a thousand monsters, at least eight hundred of them had a terrifying breath of death on their heads, and then they fell to the ground collectively.
"Outside the circle is outside the circle!"
The raccoon laughed strangely, as if he was not satisfied with the lethality of his roar.
Indeed, the raccoon was very dissatisfied. If it was in the prehistoric world, he would not have completely wiped out all the demon cultivators below the quasi-sage realm with this shout, and there should not be many left. However, things outside the circle are more strange. There are more than a thousand demons, and his shout only killed 800 of them. Moreover, the consumption of death power is even more than that of killing thousands of demons with one shout in the corrupt swamp. How can he be satisfied?
"You..."
The butterfly man stared with his eyes wide open and couldn't speak. He didn't expect that Gu Zheng's original body had come to his side at some point, and he killed hundreds of his subordinates with one shout. This shock was really like a thunder in his heart! Even now, if Gu Zheng's original body hadn't used the "Way of Death", he still didn't see that this damn raccoon was actually an enemy.
Among the Dao power mastered by Gu Zheng, there are two Dao powers that have reached advanced levels, one is the Dao of Life, and the other is the Dao of Change.
The advanced Dao of Change is also called "Xuantian Eighteen Changes", which Gu Zheng has never used since he comprehended it. Because, the 'Xuantian Eighteen Changes' can only transform into eighteen fixed things, and if he uses one, he will have one less. However, compared with the 'Eighteen Changes of the Earthly Evil' and the 'Thirty-Six Changes of the Heavenly Gang', the 'Eighteen Changes of the Xuantian' has the characteristic of being more difficult to be detected.
Gu Zhengxian used 'Space Hiding' to enter the sect where the Butterfly Man was without anyone noticing, and then killed a raccoon monster who sent wine to the Butterfly Man, and searched its soul to turn it into his appearance.
"Brother, this guy sent us wine!"
In a flash, the thin frog with a changed face remembered that when they were discussing how to deal with things at the Butterfly Man's place, this damn raccoon sent them wine, and the taste of the wine seemed to be better than before.
The butterfly man and others stared at Gu Zheng with wide eyes, and Gu Zheng laughed: "How did the wine taste just now?"
The finger gestures on his hands changed, and his mind moved with it. Whether it was the butterfly man who was not too far away, or the two-headed gorilla and the wasp waist woman who chased Miaomiao and his clone, they all felt pain in their stomachs.
Medicine and food are inseparable. As a fairy chef, Gu Zheng naturally has an unimaginable understanding of pharmacology. When he served wine to the butterfly men as a raccoon monster, Gu Zheng added some ingredients to the wine. When he needed it, he could stimulate the medicinal properties through his own blood.
"Stop, stop fighting!"
The Butterfly Man, with sweat on his forehead, spoke up quickly, and the subordinates who were already attacking Gu Zheng also stopped the attack immediately.
When the enemy stopped, Gu Zheng naturally stopped too. Although he had said it was tough before, his original intention remained unchanged, and he still believed that it was better to do less than more. However, some things cannot be negotiated at the beginning, and they must have a process of fighting! What's more, on the surface, Gu Zheng killed hundreds of monsters and made the Butterfly Man and his men feel pain in their stomachs, but these are nothing. None of the hundreds of monsters are equivalent to the quasi-saint realm, and the abdominal pain can be easily suppressed with the strength of the Butterfly Man and his men.
The Butterfly Man also understood that abdominal pain can be easily suppressed, but shock is not easy to eliminate.
Gu Zheng came from outside the circle, and the Butterfly Man also didn't know what tricks he had, which was also a factor that he would inevitably be afraid of!
Let's not talk about whether Gu Zheng can be killed or what benefits there are in killing Gu Zheng. Just at the beginning of the battle, he has lost hundreds of subordinates. What kind of losses will he suffer if he continues to fight? Is it really worth it to continue like this?
It was because of these considerations that the Butterfly Man called a halt to his own people.
