Around the ruins, several people who saw Murong Jing hitting Gu Yuan subconsciously relaxed their tense heartstrings. Even Murong Jing did not expect that Gu Yuan would fight back at this time!
Feeling the energy rushing towards her face, Murong Jing only needed to use a little force on her hands to directly break Gu Yuan's heart. However, in the face of the helpless reality, she could only raise her arms and block them in front of her.
"boom--"
After the crisp sound of the blow, the two figures quickly separated in mid-air.
When the Suzaku Thorn was pulled out from Gu Yuan's back, it also brought out a handful of blood, but Gu Yuan didn't seem to notice it. He looked back and stared at Murong Jing indifferently, then roared and rushed in the other direction.
Everyone could see that Gu Yuan was at the end of his strength.
Murong Jing was a little annoyed that she didn't subdue Gu Yuan immediately. Her eyes narrowed, and she didn't even have time to deal with the blood that surged into her throat before chasing after him, but Gu Yuan was obviously burning the blood and essence in his body, and the golden color around him His blood energy was ups and downs, but his speed did not slow down due to the injury.
Jiang Shangxiu shouted softly: "Come forward!"
Murong Jing, who was in the formation, suddenly felt that her body was much lighter, and the distance between her and Gu Yuan was shortened in the blink of an eye, but Gu Yuan had already hit the shrinking barrier at this moment.
"Stab-"
There was a sound like breaking porcelain in the air, and the barrier in front of Gu Yuan immediately collapsed.
Endless power poured in, and Jiang Shangxiu was the first to be hit by the formation's backlash. He spat out a mouthful of blood, and his breath suddenly withered. Gu Yuan suffered only the most damage after Jiang Shangxiu. One side of his body was covered in flesh and blood from the impact. It was blurry, and the wound on his vest that was about to heal burst open again.
In the current situation, even Gu Yuan, who had experienced many fierce battles, just wanted to escape from the siege of Hidden Valley people as soon as possible.
His eyes were blood red, like a ferocious beast breaking out of a cage, and he immediately straightened up and ran towards the world of freedom.
He believed that as long as anyone in Gu Ci's ancient words could discover his aura, then no one who was besieging him today would be able to do without him.
Gu Yuan's mood gradually calmed down from the ups and downs of being on the verge of death. However, the breathing time had passed, and his body had grown more than ten feet taller, but he still could not get the response he expected.
The battle over Gu Yan was far more intense than Gu Yuan expected, but what about Gu Ci?
Gu Yuan was full of confusion. He looked at the sky in the center of the inner city and could only vaguely see a bloody storm. How could Mu Qing be able to haunt Gu Ci for so long?
Or is it Gu Ci’s intention?
Gu Yuan's thoughts changed and he immediately rushed towards the inner city.
Murong Yin on the ground was about to throw out a beam of sword light to cut off Gu Yuan's path, but when he saw Murong Jing chasing after Gu Yuan, he never looked at him from the beginning to the end, and for some reason the movements of his hands were A little slower.
In the air, Gu Yuan heard the whistling sound getting closer and closer behind him, and his eyes became colder and colder.
He was surrounded by three people in his extraordinary initial stage, and was able to escape after a fierce battle, even causing two of them to temporarily lose their combat effectiveness. This result is actually considered powerful for anyone, but for someone who was aiming to establish the pinnacle from the beginning. For him, who is so powerful, it seems a bit bad.
Unfortunately, he is now making a mistake every step of the way. Even if the witch blood in his body has become much stronger due to his two awakenings, if he continues to consume it, it is very likely that he will not be able to make up for it.
Murong Jing followed Gu Yuan. Seeing that Gu Yuan no longer burned his essence and blood in pursuit of faster speed, she became more and more sure that Gu Yuan had reached the limit. She narrowed her eyes slightly, and the Suzaku Thorn in her hand suddenly turned into a stream of light and rushed towards Gu Yuan. .
Gu Yuan cursed in his heart, but Gu Yan Gu Ci threw the bronze mirror on his chest behind him before he could react.
This bronze mirror had been suppressed by Mu Qing's Origin Qi and Demon Flame before, and had not yet regained its luster as a treasure. When Gu Yuan threw it behind him like a burden, it was unable to exert its maximum defensive capabilities. The stab hit and shot straight to the ground.
The Suzaku Thorn was controlled by Murong Jing and was only blocked for a moment. Its speed was slightly slower, but its direction did not change.
Feeling the sharp and sharp aura coming from behind him, Gu Yuan's eyes flashed with a trace of cruelty. Although he knew that Murong Jing would not kill her, he could have just surrendered and waited for Gu Yan and the others, but he had already recovered from death. He begged for life twice, and the pride in his heart made him make the decision with almost no hesitation.
In the air, an obscure aura suddenly appeared on Gu Yuan's body. He moved his lips and recited something quickly, and the aura became more solid.
He is forcibly using the bloodline secret technique to summon a great witch to possess him. In doing so, even if he kills all the people in the room, it will cause serious sequelae.
But he didn't plan to worry so much.
Murong Jing noticed the change in Gu Yuan's aura and shouted softly. The Suzaku thorn suddenly burst out with a dazzling red light. The speed increased sharply and shot straight towards Gu Yuan's vest.
At this moment, she didn't hold back any more energy.
When there is not much difference in strength between the two parties, it is actually very difficult to control the situation with ease. She must now ensure that Gu Yuan will fall into her hands!
"boom--"
The aura on Gu Yuan's body suddenly changed, like dusk stained by the remaining fire in the wilderness, with a sense of coldness and silence amidst the vicissitudes of life.
The Suzaku Thorn also dragged a dazzling light towards Gu Yuan's vest.
In this attack, both sides have exhausted their respective powers. What will be the result?
At this moment, a black stream of light rushed out from the oblique thorn. The speed of this black stream of light should not be as fast as the speed of the Vermillion Bird Thorn, but because of the tricky angle, it not only stopped in front of the Vermilion Bird Thorn, but also relied on the impact of the Vermilion Bird Thorn. He crashed into Gu Yuan first.
Gu Yuan had turned around at this time, and was stretching out his big hand to deal with the impact of the Suzaku Thorn. He did not expect such a change at all. The defense on his chest was opened, and he was actually hit by the stream of light in the middle of his chest, directly defeating him. The obscure aura about him was about to stabilize.
It was only then that the black stream of light revealed its true appearance - a black tortoise shell covered with cracks.
"Ah!!!" Gu Yuan shouted angrily. He could only watch in vain as the Suzaku Thorn was about to follow the tortoise shell and hit his chest.
But at this moment, a strange phenomenon suddenly occurred. The tortoise shell suddenly erupted into a cloud of black smoke, which directly enveloped Gu Yuan's figure. When the Suzaku Thorn arrived, it penetrated directly through the black mist.
"Xuanwu!"
Murong Jing stopped in mid-air, looking at the billowing black mist, her face extremely cold.
Xuanwu didn't waste any time. After Murong Jing spoke, he flew directly from a corner on the ground into the air.
I saw his fingers moving together, and a crackling sound came from the black mist.
After a breath, when the tortoise shell hovered in Xuanwu's palm again, the black mist dissipated immediately, leaving Gu Yuan alone looking at the two people with an angry look on his face.
"Can you Hidden Valley be any more despicable?"
Gu Yuan originally thought that Murong Yin was the last person surrounding him, but Xuanwu who appeared at this time quickly overturned his belief.
In order to catch him, Hidden Valley actually came here with five people, and it seemed that the lowest cultivation levels were in the late extraordinary stage. Shouldn't he be proud?
But Gu Yuan didn't. All he could think about now was the extremely uncomfortable feeling of not being able to climb to the top and being stopped at the last step. This even made Gu Yuan feel more depressed than when he fought with Mu Qing.
"I have sealed the meridians in his limbs and blocked the flow of blood in his body. You actually want to use him to save people, so naturally you don't want to actually kill him."
When Gu Yuan said the last sentence, he glanced at Gu Yuan with an inexplicable look on his face. He was very close to the battle between the two and was outside the situation. He was clear enough to judge the blow just now. If it comes to fruition, Gu Yuan will definitely be defeated, and there is a high probability that he will die.
"Yeah. Thank you."
Murong Jing recalled the Vermilion Bird Thorn, and when she flew to Gu Yuan's side, she placed a palm directly on Gu Yuan's heart.
"Ugh, bitch."
A ball of hot breath clung to Gu Yuan's heart veins, and his already blocked blood energy shrank in the acupoints of his heart veins, not daring to attack any more.
Xuanwu looked at Murong Jing's movements, a complex emotion flashed in his eyes, but he said nothing.
It was difficult for Murong Jingli to ignore Gu Yuan. He clasped Gu Yuan's shoulder with one hand and looked at the ground.
On the sunken ground full of cracks, Huaifenghua had appeared beside Qinglong at some point, treating the wound on his chest. Murongjing sensed someone's gaze and looked over. After hesitating for a moment, she tapped lightly. He nodded: "Thank you."
Murong Yin, who was completely covered in black robes, raised his eyebrows slightly and said calmly: "At least you are still from Hidden Valley now. We will discuss the matter between you and Mu Qing later."
Murong Jing sighed in her heart, gathered up her emotions, and turned her sights to the inner city. Her eyes could not hide her worry, and there was even a trace of fear that she did not dare to explore carefully.
She pursed her red lips into a thin line, swallowed the bloody smell in her mouth, and then murmured: "I talked half a stick longer than expected. You must wait for me."
…
Inner city, central area.
The bloody tornado has gradually subsided, and the surrounding ground has already been torn apart, rippling disorderly with the surging rock flow that has not yet solidified.
This is the area where the rock flows are most active and concentrated. Going down is a magma pool that can be tens of feet deep.
At this time, a figure rushed out of the magma, stopped in mid-air, and sneered again and again: "It's just hiding here and there like a wild dog. If you come out now, I might be able to spare your life."
There was no response, there was only the sound of hot air rushing out of the magma.
Gu Ci's face was extremely gloomy. The deep magma blocked Mu Qing's perception. He followed the surging blood energy between heaven and earth several times to find Mu Qing, but before he could take action, he lost Mu Qing's position again.
He really couldn't understand why Mu Qing, who had been punched hard by him, could still persist until now, and even had the energy to induce the blood energy between heaven and earth to recover from the injury.
More than a quarter of an hour had passed since they separated from Gu Yuan.
He took a look at the outer city and saw that there was not much movement. He calmed down and thought that the people in Hidden Valley must have been hiding like foxes and rabbits for a long time. It would be difficult for Gu Yuan to find them alone.
And further away on the horizon, the fighting in Gu Yan has not stopped.
This made Gu Ci finally lose his patience. He must get rid of this kid named Mu Qing as soon as possible and help Gu Yan kill Murong Yun together.
Gu Ci closed his eyes slightly, and his black and white hair floated slightly. After a moment of silence, a series of sounds suddenly came from his body. This sound was not as urgent and loud as the sudden rain hitting the eaves, and had its own rhythm. The rain hits the banana trees.
When the sound ended, the aura on Gu Ci's body rose by half a point, and the aura that was originally as solid as a mountain became a little thicker.
He looked down at the rock flow below him, his chest rising and falling slightly, he raised his palm to the level of his chest, and then slapped it down sharply.
"Buzz——"
There was no huge whistling sound between heaven and earth, only a long and continuous buzzing sound.
The surging rock pool on the ground suddenly sank downwards, and the separated gravel blocks on the surface quickly collided together. This process was extremely short, and before the collision of the gravels made a louder sound, the magma surface directly A huge palm print appeared.
This palm print almost covered the entire magma pool. Amidst a trembling sound that tortured the ears, the palm print sank quickly, and the majestic force squeezed the magma and caused the rocks to fly.
The earth shook.
The majestic power finally spread to all directions. The inner city, which had become a scorched earth, began to split at unknown places. The cooling magma began to squeeze and split, revealing the surging rock flow below.
At this moment, the skinny Gu Ci looked like a giant walking here dissatisfied with what he saw in front of him.
Probably because of his age, Gu Ci has already lost the tallness he had in his prime. He has long grown white hair and looks more like a lean old man with good energy.
But with such an image, he just pressed the ground heavily, and in the black scorched earth, scorching fire-colored flowers bloomed.
The largest one bloomed under him.
The surging rock flow carried the gravel and spurted directly into the sky. At that moment, it also swallowed his figure. When the rock flow fell back to the ground, Gu Ci's figure also disappeared.
Behind a half-standing crumbling wall in the distance, Liu Weirui held her breath and watched the scene with a pale face.
Although it is not as powerful as the continuous roar of swords in the sky in the distance, the act of forcibly changing the appearance of a place in silence also truly demonstrates the power of the late stage of transcendence.
It was not that she had never heard of stronger people from Ling Qingzhu's mouth, but because she was vaguely sure that Mu Qing was the person who was attacked by Gu Ci, she had a real sense of it in person.
But she didn't hesitate at all. After forcibly suppressing the surging emotions in her heart, she concealed her breath and rushed forward extremely cautiously but very quickly.
Somewhere underground, Mu Qing, the focus of everyone's hearts, was leaning against a stone wall, struggling to calm down the power in his body.
For him at this time, the ubiquitous magma was hot and crowded, but it did a good job of suppressing the chaotic power that wanted to break out of his body.
His whole mind was immersed in controlling the power mixed together in his body. He no longer endured waves of pain all the time, and occasionally had to avoid Gu Ci's pursuit, so much time had passed. Can't tell the difference.
How was the battle between Murong Yun and Gu Yan?
If Gu Yan is free, will everyone be found? Or has everyone been found?
Mu Qing frowned and never relaxed. He was worried about the safety of everyone during the rare moment of respite. But the more he did this, the less he found a way to solve the chaos in his body. He just reluctantly relied on the power of the outside world. A weak balance is established.
He was sure that even if Gu Ci didn't attack him, as long as he left here and went to the ground, the power in his body would completely explode, and by then, he would probably be worse off than dead.
It was at this moment that a huge sense of oppression came from around him. Before Mu Qing could figure out what the movement was about, he saw Gu Ci's proud old face.
"Boy, you hide it deep enough."
Gu Ci sneered and rushed to Mu Qing and slapped Mu Qing on the head.
