Outside the secret realm.
When Gu Zizhen led people to the ruins, the black storm had already enveloped most of the ruins. Except for a dozen Gu family disciples standing on the edge of the ruins, no one else was left here.
Gu Zizhen felt something bad in his heart, so he walked over and asked, "What's going on? There should be nearly thirty people with you. Where are the others?"
No one answered.
The panic in the eyes of this group of young people who were regarded as the future of the Gu family has not disappeared, and they all looked lost. It was not until Gu Zizhen asked several times that someone said hoarsely: "The elder and the young master are still in the secret realm. The others are probably... dead.".
Gu Zizhen's body swayed and he almost fainted. With Gu Tong and Gu Yan beside him, half of the people were actually dead?
"What happened inside?" Gu Zizhen asked in a serious voice.
No one knows what happened.
The disciples of the Gu family were equally confused in their eyes. They were practicing well, but they were beaten again and then walked away. They were humiliated and humiliated without repayment. As soon as they entered the ideal state of cultivation, they encountered floating mountains and rivers, and mountains hanging upside down. There may be some connection between this. But those who know the truth are still in the secret realm.
The men Gu Zizhen gathered this time were all the most powerful casual cultivators in Juye City, including several who were in the early stage of transcending the mortal world, but it was these few people who were the first to be in trouble at this time.
Some people apologized and left directly, while others said frankly: "Pavilion Master, the black storm is still getting stronger and stronger. I'm afraid it won't take half an hour to cover the entire ruins. We may not be able to help by staying here. "
Gu Zizhen sighed inwardly. The black storm was getting stronger and stronger. It didn't matter even if the ruins were rolled into ruins. What he was more worried about was how long the entrance to the secret realm in the depths of the black storm could hold on.
Gu Zizhen cupped his fists towards these people and said: "Everyone, the elders and the family head have always had some kind of direct connection. If something like this happens in the secret realm, the people of the Gu family will arrive soon."
The casual cultivators' eyes met, and someone said: "What can we do now?"
Gu Zizhen raised his head and glanced at the black storm that threatened to overwhelm him. He felt extremely bitter in his heart. However, with so many people around him looking at him, he never dared to show his timidity. He could only say: "Some of you will escort them back to the Gu family. The rest come with me."
"There is a stable entrance arrangement in the ruins of the Gu family. Just follow me and you will be fine."
The crowd was silent. Gu Zizhen said it categorically, but in the end, no one was willing to go with him to Black Storm.
Gu Zizhen's eyes glanced at these casual cultivators expectantly, his face was full of anxiety but he was really happy in his heart. After confirming that all the young people of the Gu family had seen it, Gu Zizhen raised his head and sighed, and said in a low voice: "Manpower It is too small to contend with the changes in the world, so please follow me and send these young people back to the clan, and report the situation here to the head of the family at will."
Within the secret realm.
A jade talisman that had just shimmered flew out of Gu Yuan's arms and fell into Qing Ying's hands.
Qingying looked at it with interest for a moment, then raised his head and smiled at Gu Yuan who no longer tried to escape: "This is the messenger jade talisman of Liuguang Pavilion. Who did you want to contact just now?"
Gu Yuan looked at the jade talisman that was broken into several pieces in Qing Ying's hands, and sighed in his heart. This thing was obtained by the Gu family when they explored the ruins. It can contact people from the outside world in the secret realm. It is extremely precious. One piece will be lost.
This time, for the opportunity in the secret realm, he and Gu Tong both carried a jade talisman with them. However, once this piece of jade talisman was broken, the three people in the secret realm lost the possibility of directly contacting Gu Tian.
Gu Yuan slowly exhaled a breath, raised his head and looked directly at Qing Ying and said, "Senior, what exactly do you want to do?"
There was a faint smile on Qingying's lips, and he said: "You have the blood of the Witch Clan in your body, but it is not pure. I wonder what those guys who swore to keep the blood of the Witch Clan pure would do if they saw you. I think it will be fun.”
The more Qing Ying talked, the heavier Gu Yuan's heart became.
Qingying was not confused. He knew that this was not the era back then. He participated in that war. So was he an enemy or friend of the Wu clan?
Qingying walked around the hall with his hands behind his back, but it put a lot of pressure on Gu Yuan. He seemed to know what Gu Yuan was thinking. He stopped at the door of the palace, looked into the distance and said slowly: "According to the plan that everyone is defeated, In the end, I'm going back
Yuan Zong and your Wu clan can be considered allies. I wonder which force is leading the northern border now? "
Gu Yuan said frankly: "I have seen the map of the Northern Kingdom. The current Northern Territory is a desolate desert. After the ancestors of the Gu family were defeated, although they were not exterminated, they were required that future generations not leave the Northern Wilderness, so today's Beihuang is headed by my Gu family."
Qingying was silent for a while, then suddenly burst out laughing: "Hahaha, ridiculous! How ridiculous! The descendants of sin and punishment have become the owners of this land, so what were we fighting for back then? You old guys really deserve to die. .”
Gu Yuan looked sideways at Qing Ying's not-tall back and kept cautiously silent. After Qing Ying's laughter stopped, he said: "Senior, Gui Yuan Sect is now in a broken space, the entrance to the outside world. It will disappear at any time, and when the time comes, this secret realm will wander in the realm of absolute spirits."
Qing Ying narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at the floating river spiraling away. A glimmer of light flashed in his eyes. He turned around and asked, "Do you have any good suggestions?"
Gu Yuan glanced at the place where Qingying was standing, lowered his eyes and said: "There are still three people in the Gu family in the secret realm. We can help our seniors leave here. When we get to the outside world, the Gu family is willing to do our best to help our seniors rebuild the Guiyuan Sect."
Qing Ying half-smiled but said, "It seems that your status is not low."
Gu Yuan admitted: "I am the young master of the Gu family. Although the Gu family today is far inferior to the Wu clan back then, it is still one of the top ten families in the cultivation world."
Qingying sighed: "It seems that some old guys are really accurate. It's true that one generation is worse than the other."
"senior?"
Until now, Gu Yuan still has not been able to find out what Qing Ying wants, and Gu Yan Gu Tong and the others have not broken into the palace for so long, and they are gradually eating away at Gu Yuan's patience.
Qing Ying slowly walked towards Gu Yuan and said: "Those guys from the Wu Clan are all huge and round-waisted. I don't like them. The aura in your body is mixed and there is a disgusting earthy smell. I think it is your struggle to survive." The way. That young man is much better than you, but it's a pity that he still refuses to come over."
Gu Yuan felt a warning sign in his heart, a trace of ruthlessness flashed in his eyes, and he rushed straight towards Qing Ying.
"Not bad!" Qing Ying stopped with admiration in his eyes and stayed where he was, waiting for Gu Yuan's attack.
Gu Yuan raised his brows, and the blood in his body surged like thunder. When he rushed in front of Qing Ying, he had already grown ten feet taller, so he simply stepped down with his foot.
This was an extremely contemptuous attack. Qing Ying snorted coldly and pointed out, an invisible stream of water condensed between him, and the next moment it hit the sole of Gu Yuan's feet.
Gu Yuan groaned. When he activated Pangu's body, he also directly awakened the Great Witch's bloodline. However, facing Qing Ying's finger, it seemed as if he had stepped on an extremely hard ice pick.
In an instant, the cold breath eroded his entire leg, and even the power of the great witch's bloodline was sealed.
But Gu Yuan did not give up. With Qing Ying's counterattack, he took the initiative to lean to the side, and his whole body was like a big stone rushing towards the palace gate.
"Want to run?"
Qing Ying's eyes were cold, and she stepped in front of Gu Yuan as he rushed out of the door, and hit Gu Yuan on the forehead with his finger.
"Uh-"
Gu Yuan was in great pain.
Qingying's finger seemed to be an understatement, but it carried an extremely cold and sharp aura, but in an instant, the blood running in his body was frozen.
Qingying smiled warmly and said, "You'd better calm down, otherwise you'll end up with minced meat all over the floor, and I won't be too lazy to clean it up."
Gu Yuan gave him a stern look, then turned his neck with difficulty to look at the square at the palace gate.
Gu Yan was still walking towards them in the square, but for some reason, it seemed he could never reach it.
Qingying opened Gu Yan's eyebrows with his fingertips and said slowly: "What opportunities do you want to get when you come to this secret realm?"
"All three thousand of my descendants from the Guiyuan Sect are now dead. Their magic weapons have probably faded, and the elixirs in the treasure house have also lost their spirituality. What do you want, and why do you want to disturb our peace?"
When Qing Ying's fingers traced the flesh and blood, and what came out was an unusually strange coldness, Gu Yuan finally determined one thing.
He stared at the white-haired, childlike head of the Guiyuan Sect in front of him with burning eyes, and said in a cold voice: "The real Qing Ying is dead, what are you doing?"
What is it? "
Qing Ying's movements were slightly stagnant, and she shook her head and said, "I am Qing Ying, you don't need to test me."
Gu Yuan frowned, relying on the contact between his own blood and Qingying, he caught a particularly familiar breath, and said solemnly: "Some of the rough stones in the canyon have the same breath as yours? You are not the gasification of chaos. Shape, what are you?"
As Gu Yuan revealed his identity bit by bit, Qingying's expression became stiffer and his eyes became colder. When he finally spoke, half of his face was rotten, and his voice was even more sinister and angry: "I am Qingying, I am Qingying! "
The more excited he became, the more rotten flesh appeared on his face, and he even had to postpone his attack on Gu Yuan to stabilize his emotions.
Gu Yuan's eyes moved down and landed on Qing Ying's chest.
There, there was a sword mark that had never been revealed before. The rotten flesh on Qingying's face decreased, and the sword mark became darker.
Gu Yuan narrowed his eyes and said in a deep voice: "Were you killed by a sword back then?"
Qing Ying's movements were stiff, and the sword mark on his chest suddenly brightened, exploding his figure into a diffuse mist.
Without Qingying's control, Gu Yuan hit the ground with a thud. Just as he was supporting his body to rush out of the palace door, a palm fell on his head.
Qing Ying's voice was extremely hoarse: "I was indeed seriously injured by this sword, but since I have chosen you, where can you escape to?"
A trace of extremely cold water mist followed Qingying's palm and invaded Gu Yuan's eyebrows. Gu Yuan's body trembled, and he felt that the control over his body was being quickly stripped away.
He finally realized something, his arms were spinning like the wind, hitting Qingying crazily, but Qingying was like a ball of water mist, unable to bear any force. Gu Yuan could not stop him at all, and in the end he could only put down his arms feebly. , said in great pain: "Don't you think my constitution is not good? If you let me out, I will capture Mu Qing for you and seize his body."
"Seize the body?" Qing Ying sneered and said indifferently: "No matter how special your body is, how can it compare to my body, which has survived the catastrophe?"
"Relax, I'm just borrowing your body for the time being. After repairing this body, I may return your freedom."
