I picked up skill fragments in the demon world.

Chapter 782 Join forces
"What good words can you say? You are just trying to threaten me to hand over Cheng Yu and then kneel down and be your dog." Zhang Chen sneered at Gu Mingyue's words and deliberately made sarcastic remarks.

Gu Mingyue hurriedly shook her head upon hearing this: "No! The matter of Chengyu is ultimately our internal matter. Now the demon tribe has set up a large formation outside, and they want to refine us all to death."

Gu Mingyue did not dare to say too much. Now was not the time to do so. She just started to recount everything.

Zhang Chen frowned slightly when he heard this: "You fought with me before, but now you want to cooperate with me? Do you think I will put aside our grudges and cooperate with you?"

"Zhang Chen, you have to consider the overall situation. If we work together we will both benefit, but if we separate we will be defeated by the demons one by one, and the only outcome is that we will all be refined to death in Jinling City. Let's not talk about the grudge between you and me, the most important goal at this moment is to stay alive." Gu Mingyue became anxious after hearing what Zhang Chen said, thinking that Zhang Chen was young, did not understand the overall situation, and did not want to cooperate with her.

Zhang Chen looked Gu Mingyue up and down after hearing this, and after a moment of contemplation, he said, "You can cooperate with me, but there is one thing you have to promise me."

He originally wanted to rely on the power of Huang Tiandao's masters to open the Innate Water God Array.

The most important thing is that it is not difficult for him to escape from Jinling City, but if Chen Ping, Zhou Qiucheng and others want to escape, they need someone to cooperate.

"What's the matter?" Gu Mingyue asked.

"Open the Tomb of the Innate Water God and release Chen Sanliang. Don't think I don't know that you, Huang Tiandao, had already secretly arranged in the Tomb of the Innate Water God, and you transformed it into a killing game against Chen Sanliang." Zhang Chen looked at Gu Mingyue, his voice full of certainty: "Even Mr. Zhou tricked Chen Sanliang into the Tomb of the Innate Water God, I'm afraid it was also your secret arrangement by Huang Tiandao."

As Zhang Chen finished speaking, Zhou Qiucheng woke up at some point and continued, "This strategy was told to me by a nobleman in Jinling City. According to your speculation, that person should be Huang Tiandao's man."

Although Zhou Qiucheng looked pale at this time, he looked refreshed and had an inexplicable temperament.

Gu Mingyue glanced at Zhou Qiucheng with a flickering look in his eyes. After just one glance, he did not look at him again, because Zhou Qiucheng had become a useless person and was not worthy of him looking at him any more.

"Chen Sanliang ruined Zhou Qiucheng's great aspirations and is the enemy of all scholars in the world. You actually want to fish Chen Sanliang out of the Xiantian Water God's Tomb. Aren't you afraid of being criticized in the future? What's more, the tomb is filled with weak water. Chen Sanliang might have been drowned long ago. What's the point of fishing him out now?" Gu Mingyue said, "It's just a waste of time."

Zhang Chen smiled when he heard this and said, "What do the accusations from scholars have to do with me? Chen Sanliang treated me well, and I will give him a good burial after his death."

Gu Mingyue stopped insisting after hearing this and said, "I can help you, but it's not easy to open the Xiantian Water God's Tomb. Even if the two of us are very powerful, we are still not strong enough to open the tomb. We may not be able to open it."

"I don't believe that you don't have the means bestowed by the Great Sage Master. Besides, you, Huang Tiandao, have already made secret arrangements in the tomb. Don't you have left a back door to control the tomb? I don't believe what you said." Zhang Chen sneered.

Hearing Zhang Chen's words, Gu Mingyue's thoughts were exposed, and her expression was slightly embarrassed: "I can give it a try."

Then he turned his head and glanced at the ruins of Chongzheng Academy: "By the way, where is the flag of the Blood Sea Formation that I, Huang Tiandao, refined?"

One of them looked at Zhang Chen with suspicious eyes, suspecting that he had been deceived by Zhang Chen.

Seeing Zhang Chen about to refuse, he quickly said, "If we can set up the blood sea formation, we can also increase our strength in dealing with the monsters. Besides, the flag is not my own personal property. It was made by the Great Sage Master and other high-level masters. It consumed countless rare treasures that Huang Tiandao had excavated the tomb. If it falls into your hands, the Great Sage Master will definitely not give up, and it will only cause you countless troubles."

"The flag is with me, but if you want it back, I can't just give it to you. You have to redeem it." Zhang Chen said.

Hearing Zhang Chen's words, Gu Mingyue sighed helplessly again: "Where can I find the treasure to redeem it for you now? Besides, you said that in order to crack the Xiantian Water God's Tomb, you must use the Blood Sea Formation to break it."

A thought flashed through Zhang Chen's mind: "The Great Sage Teacher is a big trouble. I don't want to provoke him for the time being. Besides, I should return the flag to Gu Mingyue. If Gu Mingyue gets the flag, she will have more say in Huang Tiandao, and Huang Chao will be able to climb higher. When Gu Mingyue reaches the top in the future, I will help Huang Chao kill Gu Mingyue. By then, I may be able to control Huang Tiandao. Wouldn't this formation fall into my hands by then?"

Of course, Zhang Chen would not take such a mere formation seriously. After all, it was he who spread the Blood Sea Formation, and the Blood Road was still in his hands.

Zhang Chen looked towards Gu Mingyue with an inexplicable look in his eyes, and then took out the flag of the Blood Sea Formation: "Forget it, I'll give it back to you."

Gu Mingyue took the flag with a happy look on her face, and a smile appeared in her eyes: "Let's act quickly, and don't wait until the demons are ready. If we wait until the demons are ready, they will launch a thundering attack, and we will be in danger."

With the Blood Sea Formation in hand, he felt much more at ease and gained a sense of confidence.

The demon clan has the Twelve Yuanchen Formation, so their own Sea of ​​Blood Formation isn’t any worse, right?
Zhang Chen nodded upon hearing this, and turned to look at Zhou Qiucheng: "Sir, please wait here, we will be back soon." The weight that Zhang Chen's Five Elements Escape Technique can bear is limited, and it is obvious that Zhou Qiucheng's weight is not within this weight range.

As for the claim that his measuring stick can shrink people?

The measuring ruler can shrink a person, but its weight cannot be reduced. Although Zhang Chen has the skill of moving mountains and can bear Zhou Qiucheng's weight, he cannot do the same with the skill of escaping.

The most important thing is that the Heavenly Ruler cannot be in an activated state all the time. It requires the innate energy to continuously nourish the Heavenly Ruler.

Xiantian Qi is too important, and Zhang Chen still has a lot of use. There will be a fierce battle later, and Zhang Chen needs to accumulate Xiantian Qi.

After Zhang Chen and Zhou Qiucheng said goodbye, they followed Gu Mingyue to the ruins of the Shen family. Gu Mingyue said to Zhang Chen, "In order to activate the Blood Sea Formation, we need 1,200 people holding banners. I have summoned Huang Tiandao's disciples to come here. Let's stay here for a while."

Zhang Chen glanced at Gu Mingyue without saying much. To be honest, if the coverage of his Nine-Bend Yellow River Formation was not as good as that of the Innate Water God's Formation, there would be no need to go through so much trouble. He would have broken the Innate Water God's Formation long ago.

Soon a group of people were seen running from a distance, led by Huang Chao, followed by Pojun Star Zhao Lie and various Huang Tiandao monks wearing yellow scarves.

"It's you!!!" Zhao Lie couldn't help but writhe his eyes when he saw Zhang Chen. Divine power was surging around him and murderous intent was flashing in his eyes.

"I'm right!" Zhang Chen said with a smile, "What do you think?"

"I'm going to kill you!" Zhao Lie's eyes turned red.

"Alright, stop arguing! We are all from the same sect, what hatred can we not get over? Besides, we are now trapped in a jar, so how can we have the energy to fight among ourselves? If you want to be refined to death here by the demons, just kill Zhang Chen." Gu Mingyue turned her head and looked at Zhao Lie.

Upon hearing this, Zhao Lie immediately stopped and turned his head to look into the distance, but the bulging blue veins on his neck showed the anger in his heart.

"Let's set up the formation! The Tomb of the Innate Water God is also our last resort. If we are really defeated, this Tomb of the Innate Water God may be our last chance of survival." Gu Mingyue said to Zhao Lie: "Nephew, the overall situation is more important!"

As these words fell, everyone looked at each other, and stepped forward to take the flags. Then Gu Mingyue used his magical powers to lead them. The next moment, the void twisted, and the blood sea formation rose again.

As the Blood Sea Formation was rearranged, Gu Mingyue mobilized the power of the Blood Sea Formation and pressed towards the formation of the Innate Water God's Tomb. The next moment, the Innate Water God's Formation burst out with blue light, constantly confronting the Blood Sea Formation.

For a while, the blue and red were in confrontation, with a clear distinction.

"The Innate Water God Formation is too powerful, and the Blood Sea Formation cannot completely suppress it. You need to take action yourself to break the Innate Water God Formation!" Gu Mingyue shouted above the clouds.

Zhang Chen looked at the innate water god formation that turned into a pillar of light reaching the sky, and began to quickly deduce the core of the formation.

He holds the power of water. As long as he wants, the Innate Water God Array will be completely defenseless and transparent in his eyes. The next moment, Zhang Chen's measuring ruler passed through. The measuring ruler distorted the void and directly twisted a passage in the Innate Water God Array. Zhang Chen walked in without hesitation.

Seeing Zhang Chen enter the tomb, Zhao Lie's eyes flashed with murderous intent, and he looked at Gu Mingyue tentatively: "Uncle Master..."

Gu Mingyue immediately guessed what the other party was thinking and quickly shook her head and said, "No! The Twelve Yuanchen Formation is really powerful. Without Zhang Chen's help, it is almost impossible for us to break through the formation and escape. Let's put aside the grudges between you for now. There will be plenty of opportunities to get back at each other later, but you can't hold us back today."

No matter how unwilling Zhao Lie was, he did not dare to disobey Gu Mingyue's orders and could only swallow his anger.

"Master, do you have any plan to break out?" Zhao Lie asked Gu Mingyue.

Gu Mingyue shook her head, not wanting to cause any trouble: "The Twelve Yuan Chen Formation is too powerful. It can break all methods with one force. Even if I have more plans, I can't break the formation. It's all in vain."
