Cheng Jiao was filled with murderous aura. He jumped up the moment the arrow left the bowstring. A gust of wind suddenly blew up in the hall, and everyone subconsciously closed their eyes.
Suddenly, a loud noise was heard from the top of the hall, and roof beams and tiles fell down. Everyone hurried to avoid it. After the danger passed, everyone looked up at the roof and gasped.
"Look, what is that!"
A man suddenly pointed in the direction of the Imperial City, and many people stopped and looked over there.
I saw a huge golden dragon coiled in a cloud, shining with golden light and looking solemn and dignified.
"The true dragon has appeared, why don't you kneel down and submit?"
Following a dragon's roar, everyone in the hall felt an unprecedented terrifying pressure. Everyone was pinned to the ground by this force, except for Zhao Chengmo and a few others who were kneeling on one knee, still struggling to hold on.
Gu Lingze saw the golden dragon from afar, and as soon as he entered the city, he immediately released Gu Xiuyi from the secret realm.
Without time to explain, Gu Lingze said to Gu Xiuyi with a serious face: "Brother, go find our parents. I'll go to the palace."
Gu Xiuyi tightly grasped his wrist and said, "Be careful."
Gu Lingze nodded quickly, made a gesture with his fingers, and disappeared from the spot in an instant.
As soon as he entered the Taichu Hall, a powerful pressure came over him. Gu Lingze summoned the Mo Shuang Sword, cut his fingertips and drew talismans in the air.
"The heaven and earth are natural, and the foul qi is dispersed. The mysterious void in the cave is bright and clear. The mighty gods of the eight directions make me natural. The spiritual treasure talisman is announced to the nine heavens. The evil and filth are dissipated and the Taoist qi lasts forever."
"Hurry up and obey the order!"
A talisman floating in the air quickly expanded and enveloped the entire Taichu Hall. The pressure suddenly disappeared, and everyone in the hall covered their chests and gasped.
"Gu Lingze, I didn't expect you to come back alive." Cheng Jiao looked at the people standing below, and a hint of murderous intent flashed in his huge dragon eyes.
Gu Lingze smiled contemptuously, "Even if you die, I can't die."
"Cheng Mo, take it." He threw the bottle in his sleeve towards the other party, then circulated his spiritual energy to fly into the air.
Although Gu Lingze looked calm, the blood surging in his chest made him clench the Mo Shuang Sword in his hand.
He and Cheng Jiao have always been enemies and are extremely jealous of each other. Now the situation is even more like a fight to the death.
Gu Lingze rose to mid-air, without wasting time talking to him, and went straight up with his sword in hand.
Cheng Jiao opened his mouth wide and blew out a cloud of black mist, which directly enveloped him. Gu Lingze made a hand gesture with his left hand and recited the spell rapidly.
Cheng Jiao sneered, swung the dragon's tail and lashed out at the mist fiercely. Gu Lingze flew out from the black mist, and just as he stabilized his body, he spat out several mouthfuls of blood.
Before he could circulate his spiritual energy, the dragon's tail whipped him hard again, and Gu Lingze's whole body fell heavily on the broken roof of the Taichu Palace.
Zhao Chengmo felt like his breathing was about to stop at this moment. All he could see was Gu Lingze vomiting blood, and his eyes were almost bloodshot.
"Lingze——"
Zhao Chengmo's heart-wrenching cry did not receive any response. Gu Lingze was now dying, lying on the broken tiles and spitting out blood.
Cheng Jiao raised his head and howled happily, then lowered his head and looked at the man struggling to death on the edge of the eaves and said, "Gu Lingze, your time of death has come."
As soon as he finished speaking, the dragon's head opened its huge mouth and swallowed towards this direction. Zhao Chengmo pulled the bowstring and shot three arrows in a row, but all of them hit the dragon's body and had no effect.
Zhao Chengmo was like a madman. He snatched the divine arm bow from a black-clothed soldier and continued to shoot. Other black-clothed soldiers who reacted also aimed their bows and crossbows at the golden dragon.
But now, these injuries are nothing but an ant trying to shake a tree for Cheng Jiao, and cannot stop him at all.
A fierce look flashed across the golden dragon's eyes. Once he ate Gu Lingze, destroying the Qianyuan Kingdom would be as easy as taking something from a bag.
"roar--"
A loud roar shook everyone below and they covered their ears. Then there was a hissing sound and something seemed to be pulled off.
The golden dragon twisted its body in pain in mid-air. The golden scales on its body fell down like snowflakes, and a sword was stuck in its lower jaw.
Gu Lingze staggered to his feet from the roof, holding a crescent-shaped white scale in his hand.
"A dragon has a reverse scale. Anyone who touches it will die."
If anyone touches the dragon's reverse scale, the dragon will seek revenge on that person, both in heaven and on earth.
The reason why such a powerful creature attaches great importance to this tiny piece of scale is because it is the fatal point on the dragon's body. Once it is pulled out, it will bleed to death, and even the Golden Immortal will be helpless.
What's more, the reverse scale is connected to the dragon's heart, and the pain will kill Cheng Jiao.
Gu Lingze raised his hand to wipe the blood from the corner of his lips, looked at the scales on his hand, and his thin lips slowly stretched into a playful arc.
All the golden scales on Cheng Jiao's body fell off. He was originally a fake dragon, and now his true appearance was finally revealed.
A vicious dragon with four horns on its head, strange red pupils, and a dark body covered with pustules, which is a sign of being attacked by the negative energy in the body.
Green blood was constantly dripping from the neck, which looked very disgusting.
Gu Lingze flew down and landed in front of Zhao Chengmo. The other party hugged him tightly. Gu Lingze could clearly feel the trembling coming from him.
"I'm sorry." Gu Lingze apologized in Zhao Chengmo's ear. The other party did not say anything, but just hugged him tightly.
Cheng Jiao, who was tumbling in the sky, finally stopped at this time. The ground had become bumpy, all of which were corroded by the green liquid flowing from its body.
"Gu, Ling, Ze!!" Cheng Jiao's hatred has reached its peak at this moment.
He was almost there, just almost there. As long as he had the dragon energy from the Dongchuan Imperial Mausoleum, he could ascend to become a dragon, but Gu Lingze ruined it all.
Then he would also destroy everything of Gu Lingze.
Ever since he heard crackling sounds coming from Cheng Jiao's body, Gu Lingze had already expected that the other party would definitely detonate his inner elixir, and both sides would be destroyed.
He stepped out of Zhao Chengmo's arms and looked at him deeply.
"Cheng Mo, I'm sorry." Gu Lingze said it again, then flew into the air without looking back.
Gu Lingze rose to mid-air, stood tall and slender, and looked at Cheng Jiao quietly.
If Cheng Jiao self-destructs his inner elixir, the entire imperial city will be razed to the ground and no one will survive.
Cheng Jiao's blood-red eyes also looked at him intently. He wanted to see how Gu Lingze would protect these people now that things had come to this.
Gu Lingze raised his left hand, put his fingers together, bent his index finger slightly, and slowly closed his eyes.
"With my heart of Tao, I divide my primordial spirit. The Tao is ruthless. It moves the sun and the moon. It reduces the essence and flows the end. Nine, nine, return to one."
Cheng Jiao's eyes widened in disbelief, "You——"
A tremendous force hit the dragon and the dragon at the same time. In an instant, the sky and the earth lost their color, and an intense light accompanied by a strong wind swept across.
