Jidao: I have ten equipment slots

Just leave.

Immediately, Gu Zheng summoned Yue'er, who was wandering in Qingshi County, and brought her back to his side. He also gave instructions to Sen Taibai, Ji Taihao and others.

Afterwards, he flew into the sea together with Hai Wujiang and Hai Qingshu.

Starting from Fengzhou, head southeast.

When passing through the border of Guangzhou, suddenly, Gu Zheng's miraculous voice came from the vast sea.

"Master Hai, please wait a moment."

After saying this, Gu Zheng turned around and rushed towards the ground.

Ok?
After receiving the prompt, Hai Wujiang stopped and hovered in the air with a puzzled look on his face.

Hai Qingshu, who was carried by him, couldn't help but ask directly, using magical voice transmission.

"What's going on? What is Prince Gu doing? Below is Gwangju. Could Prince Gu be passing by and assassinating the King of Jing?"

slap~
Hai Wujiang raised his hand and hit him on the forehead, and said unhappily, "What are you talking about? Is King Gu that kind of person?"

"Hehe~" Hai Qingshu laughed, "I am just worried."

As he was speaking, he suddenly saw a dark cloud appear on the ground not far away. It was moving quickly with a whistling sound, but was quickly cut into pieces by Gu Zheng's thousands of sword lights, which scattered on the ground.

"Is this... a demon?"

Hai Qingshu widened his eyes and used his eyesight to the utmost, "Prince Gu, are you going down there to kill the demons?"

"It's to kill demons." Hai Wujiang said in a deep voice, "We are killing Devouring Zerg. There is a third-order passage below, and a large number of Devouring Zerg rushed out of the passage. The Jing Kingdom Demon Slaying Division has limited manpower and is fleeing. When Prince Gu went down, he just happened to free them and saved their lives."

"As expected of King Gu!"

Hai Qingshu clapped his hands and said excitedly, "How is the head of the family? Am I right? King Gu cares most about the people and is considerate of his subordinates. Even if he has fallen out with the Zhong family now, he will still take action when it is time."

The sea was boundlessly silent.

Choosing to cooperate with Gu Zheng means you are betting on Gu Zheng's character.

To use magical weapons to suppress magical weapons, Gu Zheng is not the only candidate.

All the major families of divine weapons are welcome!

But as a member of a noble family, Hai Wujiang knows the true faces of the major families best.

The transaction is fine.

But now that you have the magic weapon, can you lend it out again?
Ninety-nine percent of the time they are trying to shirk responsibility and come up with all kinds of excuses. There is nothing you can do about it. You can't just fall out with them.

In comparison, Gu Zheng’s character is more reliable, especially the conditions Gu Zheng put forward at the end, which made Hai Wujiang feel more at ease.

In this matter, we are not afraid of setting conditions, we are afraid of having no conditions.

……

[Demon Points +2]

[Demon Points +1]

On the mountain road, pieces of sword lights were flying everywhere, killing one Devouring Zerg after another.

This group of nearly ten thousand Devouring Zergs poured out from the passage. Wherever they passed, the grass and trees withered and dried corpses were scattered all over the ground.

Gu Zheng sensed it and dropped from the sky, just in time to run into them and kill them all.

Devouring Zerg, that’s what he needs!
"Thank...thank you, King Gu!"

In the forest, the general of the Demon-Slaying Division who led the team turned towards Gu Zheng and saluted with gratitude.

"Thank you, King Gu!"

"..."

The other Demon-Suppressing Guards who had escaped death followed closely behind, saluting and shouting.

Each voice was loud, but no one dared to look up.

The news of Gu Zheng's falling out with the imperial court spread widely.

They couldn't afford to get involved in such matters, but now that Gu Zheng had saved them, they had to thank him. It was okay to take this opportunity to shout loudly.

Gu Zheng stood in the air, looking at the entrance of the two worlds located halfway up the mountain, and asked thoughtfully, "Have any Devouring Zerg rushed out before?"

"Looking back, King, there was once... No, including this time, it's the third time he broke out." The demon-slaying general replied.

"Come out three times?" Gu Zheng pondered, "So, there is a high probability that there is a nest of Devouring Zerg on the other side of the passage?"

"This..." The demon-slaying general hesitated after hearing this, "There should be. The first time the Devouring Zerg came out, there were two to three thousand. The second time, there were five to six thousand. We lost a lot of people, and we had to set up a formation to stop them. The number of Devouring Zerg rushing out is more and more each time. I think there must be a nest on the other side of the passage!"

"Yeah." Gu Zheng nodded and made a decision.

He took a step forward, walked in the air, and moved towards the entrance between the two worlds step by step.

The demon-slaying general didn't think anything at first, but when he saw a flash of light on Gu Zheng's body and he actually walked into the passage, he was stunned!
"No, King Gu, you..."

How did this get in?
Can a king's body enter the third-level channel? Or is Gu Zheng special?

wrong!

Suddenly remembering something, the demon-slaying general exclaimed.

Sky-covering leaf!
Gu Zheng had to use the Sky-Covering Leaf to enter the third-level passage!

In order to kill the demon, I used one... no, I used two pieces of the Sky-Covering Leaf!

One piece goes in, one piece comes out.

Isn’t it just two pieces?

A rare item like the Sky-Covering Leaf can conceal the secrets of heaven.

Gu Zheng actually just...

The demon-slaying general was silent, his heart was extremely shocked.

The other Demon Suppression Guards were in an uproar.

"King Gu, is this for us?"

"I've heard that King Gu hopes to break into the demon world and kill the demons. I didn't expect it to be true. In order to kill the demons, he even used the Heaven Covering Leaf."

"Well, should we go into the passage together?"

"Let's just forget about it. It's better not to hold King Gu back."

"..."

The Demon Suppression Guards were talking about it in awe, with shock, astonishment, admiration and worship.

Some of them even wondered whether they should go to Fengzhou for refuge.

air.

Hai Wujiang's eyes widened as well, and he asked in surprise, "Prince Gu, is this... too kind?"

"Ah?" Hai Qingshu was stunned. "Master, what's going on? What did Prince Gu do?"

"Prince Gu entered the passage and went to the demon world." Hai Wujiang transmitted the message mysteriously with a complicated tone.

"Oh, so it's inside...what!?"

Hai Qingshu suddenly woke up, "Master, are you saying that Prince Gu entered the third-level passage? He is not a prince body... Wait, the Heaven-Covering Leaf! Prince Gu used the Heaven-Covering Leaf?"

"But...but..."

Hai Qingshu was shocked and didn't know what to say.

In order to defeat the demon, he actually used the precious Sky-Covering Leaf.

No wonder Hai Wujiang said “too much kindness”.

Gu Zheng's enthusiasm is more than just hatred for the devil, it's simply selfless!
……

Huh~!

In the demon world, at the entrance of the passage, as soon as he came out, Gu Zheng enjoyed the baptism of the dry hot air.

Looking around, there are withered hills and stones all over the ground. There is no trace of grass or life.

Wherever the Devouring Zerg passed, life was plundered and the place became dead silent.

After finally encountering the Devouring Zerg and with a high probability of finding their nest, Gu Zheng naturally did not hesitate to use the Sky-Covering Leaf.

After destroying several noble families in succession, Gu Zheng now has a lot of source fruits and rare items in his hands.

There are more than a dozen sky-covering leaves.

Using two pieces in exchange for demon points, or even demon skills, is totally worth it in Gu Zheng's opinion!

Hu~hu~
Hot, dry winds blow.

Gu Zheng leaped into the air, holding the demon-hunting pot in his hand, sensing the demons in all directions.

Gu Zheng was already familiar with the aura of the Devouring Zerg after having killed so many of them.

With the help of the Monster-Hunting Pot, you can eliminate individual monsters and specifically target groups of monsters.

Soon, the location was determined.

Whoosh!
swoosh~
Gu Zheng flew past like lightning.

Descend from the air and enter a cave.

Dry bones were scattered at the entrance of the cave, forming layer upon layer.

Some dry bones are transforming into bone demons, and the death energy is evolving into monsters.

Gu Zheng ignored him and entered the cave.

It meandered all the way downward until it encountered a swarm of hundreds of Devouring Zerg coming out from underground.

咻咻 咻 ~
The knife flashed past him. Puff! Puff! Puff!
With a strange noise, hundreds of Devouring Zergs shattered to the ground.

Soul capturing!

[Demon Points +1]

[Demon Points +2]

[Demon Points +1]

……

A small gain.

Gu Zheng continued to dive deeper into the ground.

After a while, they arrived at an underground cave with corridors winding around each other. From time to time, they could see small nests of Devouring Zerg scattered everywhere.

Gu Zheng decisively opened his domain, and thousands of wind blades swept across.

Huhuhu~
laugh!laugh!laugh!
As the wind blades flew and cut, the Devouring Zerg nests were shattered one by one, and all the Devouring Zergs, big and small, inside were killed.

Capture the soul, capture the soul!
Gu Zheng harvested demon points while moving.

The underground caves are very large and connected together.

Gu Zheng walked along the passage, passing one by one. Wherever he passed, the corpses of the Devouring Zerg could be seen everywhere.

Eight thousand, nine thousand, ten thousand, thirteen thousand, fifteen thousand…

Twenty thousand, thirty thousand, forty thousand!
In less than three minutes, 50,000 demon points were harvested.

The number of Devouring Zerg is still huge, spreading throughout the huge underground caves.

But the remaining Devouring Zerg, sensing the commotion, began to flee.

According to Gu Zheng's perception, it dispersed into countless strands and rushed in all directions, some went deep into the ground, and some fled to the surface.

Gu Zheng followed, expanding the domain to the largest range, and doing his utmost to kill the fleeing Devouring Zerg.

Chi chi chi~
Amid the strange noises, a large number of Devouring Zerg died again.

The demon orders fifty-two thousand, fifty-three thousand, fifty-eight thousand...sixty thousand!
All the way forward and downward.

No matter whether it is the first, second, or third level Devouring Zerg, as long as they are within the range, they will all die.

Keep killing, capturing souls and harvesting.

Finally, a fourth-level devouring insect queen rushed out from deep underground, making a sharp cry, and headed straight for Gu Zheng.

The terrifying plundering technique descended upon Gu Zheng, but was easily blocked by the magic weapon shield.

The next moment, Gu Zheng held the Scarlet Moon Sky-covering Sword in his hand, transmitted his thoughts to Yue'er, and with supernatural powers, he performed the "Ten Thousand Blades Slaughtering the Sky".

Swish~!

laugh!laugh!laugh!
The space was broken and cut into countless pieces.

The fourth-order devouring insect queen that rushed out chirped for a while before suddenly stopping. Its huge body was enveloped in light, and it was dismembered and shattered into pieces on the ground.

A knife!

With the magic weapon and perfect unique skills, and with Gu Zheng's urging, he killed the fourth-order devouring insect queen with one sword!
Soul capturing!

[Demon Points +4672]

[Demon Points +6838]

A big harvest.

continue! continue!
Gu Zheng sensed the surroundings and chased after the fleeing Devouring Zerg.

咻咻 咻 ~
laugh!laugh!laugh!
Kill and harvest along the way.

The accumulated number of demon points continues to increase.

Finally, when the total number exceeded 300,000 demon points, there were only a few fleeing Devouring Zerg left.

In the entire underground nest, there was not a single Devouring Zerg still alive.

Given the racial characteristics of the Devouring Zerg, this nest can only be considered small in scale.

Gu Zheng chased and killed them everywhere and collected 310,000 demon points before he stopped and returned to the passage.

……

"Come out, come out!"

Outside the passage, a group of Demon Suppression Guards had not left yet. When they saw Gu Zheng coming out, they called out to him excitedly.

"Thank you, King Gu!"

The demon-slaying general was the first to bow and salute.

“Thank you, King Gu!!”

The other Demon Suppression Guards followed closely behind, shouting in unison.

"No need to be polite."

Gu Zheng said calmly, "I have cleared out the Devouring Zerg nest on the other side of the passage. It is up to the General to decide how to make the next arrangements."

As soon as he finished speaking, he rose into the air and flew away.

"Farewell, Prince Gu!"

The demon-slaying general maintained his posture and watched Gu Zheng disappear from his sight.

Then, he stood up and waved excitedly to everyone, "Everyone heard it, the threat of the Devouring Zerg has been eliminated, let's go into the passage and clean up the other small monsters as well!"

"Yes~!!"

The crowd cheered.

……

air.

"Gu Wang Renyi!"

Hai Wujiang clasped his fists and saluted Gu Zheng who had returned, "I have rarely admired anyone in my life. King Gu's righteous act deserves my respect!"

As he spoke, he bent down towards Gu Zheng.

Hai Qingshu was excited and followed behind to salute.

Gu Zheng dodged and moved aside, raising his hand and said, "Master Hai, you are too kind. I am not that great. I just want something."

"Let's not talk about this any more. It has delayed us for a while. Master Hai, let's continue on our journey."

"Okay." Hai Wujiang didn't say much, but nodded and said, "King Gu, please!"

At this moment, the group of three continued on their journey.

Did Gu Zheng want something, so he used up two Sky-Covering Leaves and charged into the passage?

Hai Wujiang believes this reason!
Gu Zheng rose so quickly and made continuous breakthroughs along the way. The major families had secretly studied and researched this countless times.

There are several conclusions drawn.

One of them is all about killing!
Gu Zheng can become stronger through killing!
This could explain why Gu Zheng was so keen on killing demons and cleared more than a dozen passages.

But the ability to become stronger by killing is something that both the Baili family and the Zhu family have and is not special.

Adding a Gu Zheng is no big deal.

……

Sea area.

The vast ocean seems endless.

Gu Zheng and Hai Wujiang flew in the air together.

Hai Qingshu stayed behind when he went out to sea and returned to his ancestral land.

Gu Zheng and Hai Wujiang are even faster.

The howling sea breeze had no effect on the two of them.

He flew three thousand miles in one breath and arrived at the Ice and Fire Island.

"King Gu felt it, right?"

Hai Wujiang stopped and pointed at an island in the distance with volcanic ash all over the sky and red light surging, and said in a mysterious voice, "That is the birthplace of the Flame Sword."

"As for the Frozen Sword, it's over there!"

Hai Wujiang turned sideways and pointed to an island more than ten kilometers away in the south. "The Frozen Sword was born underground, in the center of the island... Hmm? Wait!"

As he was speaking, Hai Wujiang's expression straightened up, his brows furrowed, "Something is wrong, there is something wrong on the frozen island."

"It's the evil god."

Gu Zheng put his hands behind his back, looked out at the frost-covered island in the distance, and said softly, "An evil god has descended on that island. It looks like we'll have to work harder if we want to take the Ice and Fire Swords."

Buzz~~!

The void trembled.

Almost as soon as Gu Zheng finished speaking, the frost island in the distance suddenly shook, pulling the surrounding sea water to flow and form whirlpools.

Huhuhu~!

The wind was swirling and dark clouds were gathering.

A huge black shadow, as if walking out of nothingness, stands above the island! (End of this chapter)
