In the following time, Gu Xu first used the "Star Array" to summon several stars such as the Sun Star, Pojun Star, Sheep Blade Star, and Tuoluo Star, making them bombard Wen Xuan continuously like cannonballs.

Wen Huang howled, controlling the strong wind in the wilderness while showing his fangs and fluttering flexibly, launching round after round of attacks on Gu Xu.

However, Gu Xudu relied on his "Wind Movement Talisman" and his flexible body skills to continuously pull away and remain unharmed under the fierce attack of this monster.

At this moment, Wen Huang had been beaten to pieces by Gu Xu and his whole body was burnt. He made a stinging sound from time to time, which made people think of the roasted suckling pig on the barbecue grill.

But it still lives on tenaciously and its power of action has not diminished.

Gu Xu even used the Jinghong Pen to release "Thousands of Flowers Blooming in the East Wind Night", and concentrated his true energy to deliver a powerful blow, but he still failed to successfully kill the "wild boar" - it seemed to have locked up its blood. He was mortally wounded, but he couldn't be killed.

"Perhaps this is also part of the rules of the 'Dragon Secret Realm'," Gu Xu thought silently, "I can't rely on brute force to kill it, I must use some special method."

Although the "Seven Styles of Burning Heaven" have the ability to break the rules, the "Secret Realm of Tianlong" is after all a small world of the Daqi royal family, which continues to operate with the support of the famous weapon "Tai'a Sword".

Chi Yangzi was only an eighth realm monk before his death, and Gu Xu's current cultivation level is also relatively low, and it is impossible to completely ignore the rules in the secret realm.

He still needs to figure out the rules and act according to them.

Just as Gu Xu was dodging and thinking about the problem, Wen Huang, who was burnt all over, suddenly jumped up with his hooves and jumped onto the rock next to Liu Daxi and Zhang Yonggui.

Zhang and Liu were shocked.

They no longer cared about hiding themselves, but rolled and crawled in the strong wind, just wanting to stay away from this terrible "wild boar" and away from this dangerous battle.

Because of his panic, the dagger in Zhang Yonggui's hand accidentally dropped to the ground.

He wanted to reach out to pick up the sword, but saw that the sword was blown up by the strong wind. Together with the surrounding sand and gravel, it flew several feet high, then circled and hit "Wen Huang".

Zhang Yonggui's dagger is just a low-grade magic weapon.

Wen Huang was able to withstand the terrifying lethality of the "Star Formation" and "Seven Burning Sky Styles" - logically speaking, this dagger could not pose any threat to it at all.

However, unexpectedly, the moment the dagger touched it, Wen Huang suddenly let out a shrill wail, then staggered to the ground and turned into a pool of black ashes.

The strong wind in the wilderness also suddenly stopped.

Gu Xu stood there stunned for a second, unable to believe his eyes——

The monster that he couldn't kill with all the powerful methods was actually killed after being struck by an ordinary low-grade dagger!

This is simply unreasonable!

But he quickly calmed down.

After all, he knew that the rules in the "Dragon Secret Realm" were special and many things could not be explained by common sense.

For the strange scene in front of him, two explanations came to his mind -

First, only purely physical attacks can kill the monsters in the secret realm. True essence and magic damage can only cause serious injuries to them, but cannot truly endanger their lives.

Second, the monks cannot kill the monsters in the secret realm alone. Only when at least two monks take action together can the monster be completely killed.

Gu Xu prefers the second explanation.

Because the first type is unfair to monks who major in spells and talismans. The "Luoshui Conference" is the most anticipated and highest-level event in the Da Qi Dynasty. The court should not adopt potentially controversial rules on such an important occasion.

And if it is the second type, it means that the monks who are competitors must choose to cooperate in order to deal with the monsters in the secret realm.

However, this is currently just speculation in Gu Xu's mind.

The specific one still needs to be verified through experiments - which means he has to find a few "guinea pigs."

Gu Xu thought about it for a moment, then walked straight towards Zhang Yonggui and Liu Daxi.

Zhang and Liu had just gotten up from the ground and picked up their weapons.

After witnessing the fierce battle just now, they already had a clear understanding of Gu Xu's strength. Seeing Gu Xu approaching at this time, they all turned pale with fright, fearing that this proud man of heaven would take action against them.

Whether it is the dreamlike "Firefly Flame" or the majestic "Star Formation", it can easily kill ten of them in the blink of an eye and burn them to ashes instantly.

"Don't... don't come over!" Zhang Yonggui held the jade talisman, raised his hands, and said tremblingly, "Don't hit us, we surrender! Let's get out now!"

Seeing the trembling looks of the two of them, Gu Xu shook his head with a smile and said, "I won't do anything to you. I'm here to cooperate with you."

"Cooperation?" Zhang and Liu opened their eyes wide, feeling incredible.

They really couldn't imagine what the value of cooperation would be in the face of a powerful person like Gu Xu who could instantly kill Mr. Shen and challenge the ferocious beast Wenhuang.

"Yes, cooperation," Gu Xu said sincerely, "In this small world full of unknowns, one person's power is too weak. I have to do something next and need some help from my companions.

"I think you are a good candidate."

us? A good candidate?

What exactly does this boss like about us?

Is it that you hide far enough when the crisis comes, or that you raise your hands and surrender quickly enough?

Zhang Yonggui and Liu Daxi turned to look at each other, feeling unbelievable.

"What do you need us to do?"

"A little thing. I will tell you when I meet the next monster."

Hearing this, Zhang and Liu were still a little confused, but they were afraid of offending Gu Xu because they were too verbose, so they didn't dare to continue asking questions.

"By the way, may I ask the names of these two fellow Taoists? Where are they from?" After a short silence, Gu Xu asked them again.

Zhang and Liu immediately nodded slightly and announced their names, hometowns and teachers, without daring to delay for a moment.

They originally thought that Gu Xu had never heard of a remote and unknown small sect like "Zhaoyang Mountain".

Unexpectedly, Gu Xu smiled slightly and responded: "Zhaoyang Mountain, I heard that your ancestor, Master Long Tingyu, is a genius - he practiced hard on the mountain alone without the guidance of his master. In a few years, he created the middle-level swordsmanship "Zhaoyang Sword", which can be said to be a powerful method for melee monks to deal with ghosts and ghosts.

"It's my great fortune to meet the descendant of Master Long here today."

Liu Daxi immediately said humbly: "The two of us are too stupid. Now we have only learned the surface of "Zhaoyang Sword" and dare not claim to be the descendants of the ancestor."

At the same time, he had some admiration for Gu Xu - in addition to being "a great fighter", he also labeled Gu Xu as "erudite and well-informed".

"I don't know your name?" After a moment, Liu Daxi also asked cautiously.

"I'm from Yishui, Gu Xu, and now I'm working in the Luojing Exorcism Department." Gu Xu responded.

Zhang and Liu immediately clasped their fists and bowed in salute: "The common people have met Mr. Gu."

Although they have been practicing in seclusion for a long time and do not know Gu Xu's legendary deeds, they have heard Gu Xu's name from other people's comments and know that he is an important official at the Exorcism Department Headquarters, so they dare not slack off in their attitude toward him. .

But when they saw Gu Xu's overly young face, they still couldn't help but sigh in their hearts. Young people today are really not simple. They hold important positions in the court at a young age-how different from themselves, who have already established themselves in the past. Years, but still a waste that has accomplished nothing.

"You two don't need to be polite," Gu Xu said with a kind smile, "Since we competed on the same stage at the 'Luoshui Conference' and now we are traveling together, we can call each other 'fellow Taoist' instead of 'adult' .”

How dare Zhang Yonggui and Liu Daxi do this?

Still lowering his head, he responded: "Yes, Master Gu."

Gu Xu didn't bother to spend any more time correcting it.

His eyes were fixed on the black ashes left on the rocks after "Wen Huang" was burned to death.

With keen observation, he noticed that there seemed to be something unusual hidden in the black gray.

So he walked straight over there, stretched out his hand, and picked up a yellowed piece of paper from the ashes.

There were some small words and graphics on the paper, but due to the severe damage, the contents could not be seen clearly.

Gu Xu frowned slightly.

His intuition told him that there might be clues to the "Ginjiu Zha" hidden in this piece of paper.

It's just that he couldn't read any valid information from it.

However, just as he was concentrating on thinking, a milky white halo suddenly appeared on the scraps of paper and the jade talisman he was holding.

Then, the pieces of paper broke free from his hand, flew up, and then merged into the jade talisman, disappearing completely.

At this moment, a huge picture appeared in Gu Xu's mind——

At first it was gray, as if chaos had not yet opened, or as if it was covered by a layer of thick fog.

Suddenly, a small area in the corner suddenly lit up - as if the fog lifted, revealing what was hidden underneath.

It was a small and quite detailed map, with information such as mountains, plains, caves, rivers, and even the location of the monster's lair marked on it.

It's just that the range it displays is very narrow, only about a few miles around.

Next to it, there is a big character "Xun" that seems to have nothing to do with the map.

"If I guessed correctly, this should be the map of the 'Dragon Secret Realm'," Gu Xu secretly thought, "but I have only glimpsed the tip of the iceberg of it so far, and more content is still hidden in the mist.

"If you want to get a glimpse of its full extent, you need to kill more monsters to obtain more pieces of paper and light up more areas of it."

Thinking of this, Gu Xu thought, and the map disappeared from his sight.

Then he turned to Zhang Yonggui and Liu Daxi and said, "Let's go! Let's go to the Wenhuang's nest first to see how many companions it has."

Zhang and Liu sighed in their hearts: As expected from the exorcism department, he actually took the initiative to find trouble with monsters.
