Jidao: I have ten equipment slots

Chapter 256 [255] Betting on Gu Zheng’s character!

Call ~
call!
The cold wind blows, whistling across the sky and earth.

High in the sky, Gu Zheng's body was like willow catkins, floating forward silently.

A thousand meters ahead of him, a dozen second-order Devouring Zergs flapped their wings, making the smallest sound, and flew past.

In order to solve the insect infestation in the city, Gu Zheng harvested more than 50,000 demon points.

But he did not kill all of the Devouring Zerg. Instead, he let a dozen of them go and let them escape. Gu Zheng followed behind them slowly.

As for Mo Jia Teng, he has already left and is no longer needed in the future. He also does not know the whereabouts of the Devouring Insect Mother.

That's right.

Gu Zheng let go of these dozen second-order Devouring Zergs just to find the Devouring Zerg Queen!
As long as the fourth-level Devouring Zerg Queen does not die, Devouring Zergs will continue to be produced.

Under normal circumstances, when the Devouring Worm Queen appears, there will be a lot of noise.

Plunder vitality and turn it into death, strengthening oneself.

The destruction of several cities and the absorption of vitality all over the mountains and fields would inevitably cause a stir that would shake the entire state and even the country.

But before that, there was no movement at all.

It was only when the Devouring Zerg moved around, captured the county town, and affected the entire prefecture that they were discovered.

The Jing Kingdom's court hadn't responded yet, and reinforcements from the Demon Slaying Division hadn't arrived yet.

So many people died. If Gu Zheng hadn’t come, everyone in the mansion would have died.

The Devouring Insect Queen did not make any movement and no one knew where she was hiding.

Preparing to lay eggs?
So the other Devouring Zerg absorbed the essence of flesh and blood and plundered the vitality, but instead of strengthening themselves, they took it back?
Gu Zheng was thinking while flying silently in the air.

A dozen second-order Devouring Zergs a thousand meters ahead suddenly landed and entered a hilltop.

Then turn into a cave and go deeper underground.

The cave is wide enough to accommodate two or three people together.

Gu Zheng restrained his breath again and followed in.

Going all the way down, hundreds of meters underground, the view ahead suddenly opens up.

A huge natural hole appeared before our eyes.

In the center of the hole, there lay a devouring insect that was over three meters tall and as big as a house.

The aura of the fourth level permeated the void.

Devouring insect queen!

However, the devouring insect queen in front of him had a very weak aura, half of its body was missing, and it only had two wings left, one in front and one behind, and they were asymmetrical.

He was actually injured!
The trauma is still severe.

No wonder it didn't come out to cause harm, but hid underground, needing other devouring insects to provide it with blood, flesh and vitality.

Gu Zheng found it funny and glanced at the wounds on the Devouring Insect Mother's body.

It was not caused by a weapon, nor was it the mark left by the operation of true energy. It seemed to be caused by some kind of sharp claws.

In other words, it was not a human expert who severely injured the Devouring Worm Queen, but another powerful demon!
The problem is coming.

The battle between two fourth-level demons was quite noisy.

No one has discovered it, pay attention.

There is only one possibility, the war takes place in the demon world!

The Devouring Worm Queen is a manifestation from the demon world.

But how did it get here?

There is no fourth-level passage nearby!

unless……

"A fifth-level demon?"

Gu Zheng's heart moved.

The two fifth-level demons fought each other with absolute strength, tearing open the world barrier and forcing open a crack, allowing the Devouring Insect Queen to escape.

Even so, the Devouring Worm Queen was severely injured and unable to move, and needed external assistance.

pity……

Boom~
The hurricane field was opened first, turning into wind blades, surrounding the Devouring Insect Queen in the form of a tornado.

Crackling~
boom! boom! boom!
The Thunder Domain of Annihilation followed closely behind, blending into it, releasing the power of annihilation and strangling the Devouring Insect Mother.

"Sigh~~"

"Roar!!"

In a sudden attack, as the Devouring Worm Queen's body was cut into pieces, it screamed sharply, and the sound waves were like substance, impacting the area, and then disintegrated in an instant.

buzz~
The void trembled, and an invisible force seeped out and began to plunder.

Devour the Zerg's innate abilities and plunder vitality!
This force ignored the two major areas and descended on Gu Zheng across a distance of a hundred meters.

"Hmph~!"

Gu Zheng shouted coldly, and the Sky-Slaying Halberd appeared, condensing into a divine weapon shield to block the plundering and invasion.

Swish!

The power of thunder and fire of the Killing Heaven Halberd intertwined to form a protective shield. Although Gu Zheng used it for the first time, this power, which was different from the domain, happened to be the nemesis of the demon's innate ability.

If it were any other king body, the only thing they could do at this time would be to dodge and move.

Gu Zheng didn't need it. He used one hand to resist with his magic weapon and the other hand to strangle him.

The hurricane field added sword intent to besiege the Devouring Worm Mother, and the Silent Thunder Field continuously released thunder to destroy the Devouring Worm Mother's remaining body.

Despite the sharp cries of the Devouring Insect Queen and the plundering techniques running wildly, they slowly stopped. Finally, the entire body shattered and exploded into countless debris.

Soul capturing!

[Demon Points +2205]

[Demon Points +4166]

"Not bad."

Gu Zheng withdrew the domain and checked the demon points he had harvested, feeling quite satisfied.

The Devouring Insect Mother's demon pill is incomplete, so it is directly absorbed and converted into demon points.

As for the other Devouring Zerg in the underground cave...

shhhhhh!
The sword light was flying, and the cold light was like a blade, spreading everywhere, killing the devouring Zerg hiding in the corner.

Then, capture the souls and harvest the demon points.

Only after making sure that there were no Devouring Zerg left did Gu Zheng turn around and leave.

Return to the surface.

Gu tried to take out the Demon-Hunting Pot and sense the demons within a radius of ten thousand meters, which were mainly small groups of scattered Devouring Zerg.

After finding it, rush over quickly and kill and harvest the demons.

This time, he killed the Devouring Zerg and gained more than 100,000 accumulated demon points, but his demon skills remained unchanged.

I can only say that the killing is not enough!

But a pity.

The number of Devouring Zerg was limited, and Gu Zheng searched back and forth, clearing out the entire mansion and even several surrounding mansions. He killed all the Devouring Zerg completely and harvested another 10,000 demon points, but it was still not enough to obtain demon skills.

……

King's capital.

Inside the palace.

"What's going on? Why did Gu Zheng go to Hengzhou for no reason?" Zhong Yi, who had just finished handling government affairs, received the latest information about Gu Zheng. He frowned and asked in a deep voice, "Did he go to Hengzhou just to kill demons?"

"I think he has ulterior motives!" Zhong Zhengxiao shouted.

"What's your intention?" Xu Jianzhu said calmly, "The only person in Hengzhou who has a relationship with him is Huang Dajin, one of the 'Seven Demon Slayers', but Huang Dajin died a long time ago."

"What does Lord Xu want to say?" Upon hearing this, Zhong Zhengxiao turned his head to look at Xu Jianzhu with an inexplicable expression.

"Nothing, I just want to make it clear that Gu Zheng went to Hengzhou just to kill monsters. If it weren't for him, half of Hengzhou would have fallen and been plundered by the Devouring Zerg." Xu Jianzhu responded calmly.

"Oh, so we should be grateful to Gu Zheng?" Zhong Zhengxiao sneered. "Shouldn't we be grateful?" Xu Jianzhu asked in return.

"Xu Jianzhu! What do you mean?" Zhong Zhengxiao exploded and roared, "Are you from my Zhong family, or Gu Zheng's? If you want to betray and join the Gu family, just say so!"

"I belong to the people." Xu Jianzhu responded calmly, "As the chief officer of the Demon Slaying Division, it is my duty to slay demons and eliminate evil. Saving the people from danger is my ideal."

"you……"

"That's enough!" Zhong Yi interrupted, "Stop arguing. Lord Xu is right. We should thank Gu Zheng. After all, Hengzhou was saved because of him."

"And you, don't ask me to do personal things next time. If you hadn't caused the trouble during the Devouring Zerg Rebellion, Lord Xu would have had to go over to clean up the mess. How could he have delayed the extermination of the monster and failed to rescue Hengzhou?"

"..." Zhong Zhengxiao opened his mouth and wanted to explain, but the Devouring Zerg disaster in Hengzhou was indeed because of him, and that was why Xu Jianzhu didn't get there in time.

"Humph!"

Zhong Zhengxiao had nothing to say, so he flicked his sleeves and left.

Zhong Yi did not stop him, but just sighed.

"Master Xu, you should get busy too."

Zhong Yi raised his hand tiredly.

"Yes!"

Xu Jian bowed to everyone one by one, then turned and left.

From beginning to end, there was no expression on his face, but deep down, he felt inexplicably heavy.

……

Fengzhou, Qingshi County.

On the hill outside the city.

Huh~!

The mountain wind blew, and Gu Zheng fell from the sky and landed on the ground.

"Gu...King Gu!"

Ten steps away, a young man with long blue hair faced Gu Zheng and saluted nervously.

"Brother Hai, long time no see."

Gu Zheng chuckled, "You and I are old acquaintances, relax and don't be restrained."

"This... this is not King Gu. His achievements are so great that I can't even see him if I look up to him."

Hai Qingshu smiled awkwardly, and his nervous mood eased.

Hai Qingshu, a member of the Hai family whom Gu Zheng had met on the field, gave him a small conch.

At that time, Hai Qingshu was accompanied by his sister, Hai Qingmi.

At that time, Gu Zheng had just broken through to the super body.

When they met again, Gu Zheng had already reached the third stage of King Body, and was famous all over the world!
With such a big change in such a short time, it would be strange if Hai Qingshu wasn't nervous.

Fortunately, Gu Zheng's attitude remains the same as before.

Hai Qingshu sighed and clasped his fists, saying, "King Gu, I am sorry to bother you with something. This is the head of my Hai family, Hai Wujiang."

Turning slightly sideways, Hai Qingshu pointed at the old man standing behind him who kept smiling and didn't speak.

The old man also had long blue hair, neatly combed and scattered behind his head. He wore a blue and purple gown draped over his thin shoulders, and the hem of his skirt swayed in the mountain breeze.

"Hai Wujiang, greetings to King Gu!"

Still with his mouth closed, a steady and powerful voice was transmitted to Gu Zheng through magic.

"Prince Gu, the head of the family has been unable to speak since childhood due to illness." Hai Qingshu explained hurriedly, "But he is extremely talented and works very hard. He was elected as the head of our Hai family at the age of forty. Until today, he has dedicated hundreds of years to our Hai family."

A master who can’t speak?
It’s quite interesting.

Of course, Hai Wujiang's strength was not bad either. He did not try to hide it, and revealed the aura of the second stage of the king body.

"Master Hai." Gu Zheng replied, and then asked, "I wonder what Master Hai wants from me?"

"I hope that Prince Gu can lend a helping hand to the Hai family."

Hai Wujiang transmitted his voice in an amazing way, saying directly, "Of course, you can also say that you are helping Hai to reach the third stage."

"Oh?" Gu Zheng was curious, "Master Hai, please tell me in detail."

Impacting the third stage of the king body?

This is no small matter.

"To be honest with you, King Gu, I have clearly reached the third stage of the King's Body. The path to enlightenment is the Way of Ice and Fire. As long as you understand the Way of Ice and Fire, you will be able to complete your search for the truth."

Hai Wujiang explained through a mysterious voice transmission, "However, the enlightenment of the Way of Ice and Fire requires conditions. For this reason, Hai has been looking for a suitable place since the last heavenly change. My efforts paid off, and I finally found it."

"There is an island region three thousand miles away in the southeastern sea of ​​Jing Country. Several island regions have accumulated over the years due to the eruption of submarine volcanoes and the convergence of ocean currents, forming glaciers under the island regions, turning them into ice and fire islands."

"Just half a month ago, Hai was patrolling this Ice and Fire Island and discovered two magical weapons that were being born."

"A divine weapon is being born?" Upon hearing this, Gu Zheng couldn't help but ask through divine transmission, "Master Hai, are you sure? A new divine weapon is being born?"

"Sure, sure."

Hai Wujiang also continued to transmit his voice in a mysterious way, "Although the Ice and Fire Island was formed only two thousand years ago, it has a long history. Tracing back to ancient times, it is not surprising that a magic weapon was born. But I didn't expect that two magic weapons would be born this time. Hai has observed for three days and determined that the two magic weapons that were born are two swords. The Ice and Fire Swords!"

"If I can get the help of these two swords of ice and fire, I have a 70% chance of completing my understanding of the way of ice and fire and completely realizing my search for the truth!"

"But newly born divine weapons are difficult to tame and cannot be forced. Only by using divine weapons against divine weapons can the sharpness of the newly born divine weapons be blunted."

"The Ice and Fire Swords require two magical weapons. The Hai family already has one magical weapon. If we can get the help of the magical weapon in King Gu's hands, we will definitely succeed."

"After the matter is completed, the Ice and Fire Swords will belong to King Gu!"

"..." Gu Zhengjian raised his eyebrows, "Master Hai is saying that after the Ice and Fire Swords are subdued, both swords will belong to me?"

"Yes."

Hai Wujiang nodded and said in a mysterious voice, "After King Gu obtained the Ice and Fire Swords, he hoped to use me to comprehend the Way of Ice and Fire."

This……

"Aren't you afraid that I might go back on my word?" Gu Zheng's eyebrows twitched. "After I get the Ice and Fire Swords, if I go back on my word and don't lend them to me, what will the Hai family master do?"

"That means Hai lost the bet."

Hai Wujiang's expression remained unchanged, and he transmitted a mysterious voice, "Whether to lend or not is originally decided by King Gu. If you don't lend, I will continue to explore. If you lend, I will hopefully break through to the third stage of the King Body."

Gambling and fighting for character!
It’s also awesome.

Gu Zheng himself didn't know that he would let others believe it so.

Inform the birth of the twin swords of ice and fire.

You know, this is a magical weapon!
Or two pieces!

It can be said that the Hai family gambled a lot. Of course, even if Gu Zheng regretted it, the Hai family would not suffer any loss.

"You win."

After a moment's silence, Gu Zheng said with a smile, "Sure. If you really want to get the magic weapon, you can lend it to Master Hai for his enlightenment. However, I also have a condition."

"Please speak, King Gu." Hai Wujiang bowed.

"One day in the future, I will need the Hai family's magic weapon. At that time, the Hai family must lend it to me." Gu Zheng said solemnly, "This is the condition I have. The head of the Hai family..."

"can."

Hai Wujiang directly transmitted his voice with divine power, nodded and replied, "Whenever King Gu needs it, the Hai family will present the magic weapon!"

As for why Gu Zheng needed to borrow other people's magic weapons after he already had a magic weapon and the Ice and Fire Swords, Hai Wujiang didn't ask.

The reasons behind it must be complicated, and it is better not to know.

"very good."

Gu Zheng smiled, "Then let's have a happy cooperation."

"It's a pleasure working with you." Hai Wujiang also smiled.

"Are we going to the Ice and Fire Island now?" Gu Zheng asked.

"If King Gu has nothing else to do, you can set off now." Hai Wujiang nodded.

"Let's go!" (End of this chapter)
