Before I knew it, more than a month had passed.

In the past fifty days in the outside world, Ji Tianxing has been cultivating in the secret room for more than eight months.

After this period of retreat and penance, his strength has increased by leaps and bounds, and has increased by about two times.

The fourth-layer exercise of the Sword Soul Dao, he has already cultivated to the realm of Dacheng, and the power of the Yuan Shen is also very strong.

His strength realm has reached the sevenfold peak of the Yuan God Realm.

As long as he breaks through a layer of bottleneck, he can step into the eightfold realm of the primordial gods.

At that time, he will truly be an invincible existence under the Tribulation Realm!

Originally, he also wanted to retreat and cultivate in a secret room, trying to break through the bottleneck.

He wanted to strive to reach the eightfold of the Yuan God Realm before leaving Fengshen Mountain.

It's just that early this morning, someone knocked on the door of the secret room.

Ji Tianxing was awakened, and after finishing his cultivation, he walked out of the secret room, only to find that the person who knocked on the gate was the guard of the East Courtyard.

The golden-armored guard bowed respectfully and saluted, handing over a jade slip with both hands, "Master Ji, here is a summons jade slip, which is presented to you."

Before your retreat, you were instructed that if you received such a jade slip, you should knock on it to wake you up. ”

Ji Tianxing took the summons and looked at the jade slip, and saw that there was a mysterious mark engraved on the jade slip.

In the imprint, there is a majestic and tall mountain, which rises to the sky like a giant sword.

On the top of the mountain, there is a vast sea of clouds, and a bright moon hangs in the sky.

On the identity token that Zhibai took out at the beginning, there was such a mark, representing Tianzhu Mountain.

Ji Tianxing waved his hand to signal the guard to retreat, and then invaded the jade slip with his divine sense to check the news inside.

"Master, my subordinates are waiting for your arrival in Kazuya City, there is an elder who wants to see you, please be sure to come and meet you. ”

There is only one sentence in the jade slip, which is concise and to the point, which is the tone and style of Zhibai.

At the beginning, when Ji Tianxing returned to Fengshen Mountain from the Glacier God Mine, he asked Zhibai to stay at the bottom of the mountain and wait.

There has long been an agreement between the two that if there is something important, they will be summoned by jade slip.

"Zhibai, this guy actually ran to Kazuya City?

One of his elders wants to see me? What elder? Could it be a descendant of Tianzhu Mountain?"

Ji Tianxing put away the jade slip, frowned and pondered for a moment, and then made up his mind.

He walked out of the eastern courtyard of the Heavenly Saint Palace, left the Fengshen Mountain, and hurried to the Radiant Night City.

Hui Night City is the closest prosperous city to Fengshen Mountain, and the two are more than 10,000 miles apart.

With such a close distance, it only took Ji Tianxing an hour to reach the gate of Kaguya City.

Kaguya City sits amidst rolling mountain ranges, a majestic mountain that is thousands of feet high.

The city is a hundred miles in circumference and has a history of more than 2,000 years.

The black city walls and towering city gates exude a quaint atmosphere of vicissitudes.

Ji Tianxing passed through the heavily guarded city gate, accepted the inspection of the city guards, and paid a few spirit stones before being allowed to enter the city.

He had just entered the city and was walking on a straight and wide avenue.

At this moment, a young man wearing a cloth coat and a hat suddenly followed behind him.

"Master, please come with me. ”

Hearing this familiar voice, Ji Tianxing turned his head to look at it, and saw an unfamiliar face under the hat.

On the surface, the face was dark yellow, like an ordinary person or a woodcutter.

But Ji Tianxing recognized those deep and sharp eyes, which were Zhibai.

"Heh, do you want to disguise yourself?

Ji Tianxing showed a hint of a smile, and the sound transmission was talking to him.

Zhibai led him into an alley, and while shuttling through the intricate alleys, he explained: "We people from Tianzhu Mountain, when we walk outside, have always paid attention to concealment and hiding, otherwise it will be difficult to continue until now. ”

Ji Tianxing suddenly frowned, and asked suspiciously: "Zhibai, what do you mean by this? Could it be that there are some strong people and forces who have been dealing with the people of Tianzhu Mountain?"

"This thing...... You'll know later. Zhibai responded, obviously not daring to disclose the news without authorization.

It wasn't long before the two came to the end of a dark, damp alley and burrowed into an old mansion.

The area of this house is not large, and the courtyard and house layout look like an ordinary house, which is not noticeable at all.

Probably the house has been uninhabited for too many years, and there are many weeds growing in the yard.

In disrepair, the roof tiles have been shattered, and in some places there are water leaks.

Zhibai took Ji Tianxing and entered a quaint study.

The door was ajar, and there was a thin white-haired old man in a black robe, standing in front of the window, quietly looking out the window at the flower garden.

The old man had his back to the door of the study, and he could only see his thin back and long gray hair in his shawl.

Zhibai entered the study and stood still, bowed respectfully, and said, "Fourth Elder, the distinguished guest has been brought." ”

The black-robed old man had probably been waiting for a long time, and when he heard this, he immediately turned around and looked at Ji Tianxing with burning eyes.

He didn't speak, staring at Ji Tianxing with bright eyes, but he lost his mind and froze in place.

It's just that he has a black iron mask on his face, and he can't see what the expression is.

Ji Tianxing was also silent, looking at him quietly.

After a long time, the old man in the black robe came back to his senses, and said with some emotion: "It's too similar! If it weren't for the old man's preparations, I'm afraid that he would recognize the ancestor in person!"

His voice trembled a little, and his eyes were quite complicated, with a bit of nostalgia, reminiscence, and sadness.

Seeing his reaction like this, Ji Tianxing could vaguely guess the reason.

Then, the old man in the black robe calmed down, and then bowed to Ji Tianxing, and said, "The old man Fengping, I have seen Ji Gongzi." ”

Ji Tianxing nodded at him and arched his hand, "Elder Feng is polite." ”

"Ji Gongzi, please sit down and talk. Feng Ping stretched out his hand and made a gesture of please.

After Ji Tianxing sat down, Zhibai stayed by his side.

At this time, Feng Ping added another sentence and said, "Master Ji, you still call the old man the fourth elder." ”

"Hmm. Ji Tianxing nodded and said, "Fourth Elder, these are all your own people, can you take off the mask and show your true face?"

Feng Ping was stunned for a moment, quickly took off the mask on his face, and laughed self-deprecatingly: "The old man lost his temper for a while, which made Ji Gongzi laugh." ”

When he took off his mask, he revealed a weather-beaten face with a vicissitudes of temperament.

Ji Tianxing could clearly see that there was a deep scar on his forehead and on the left side of his face, like a scar cut by a sharp blade.

Even so, Feng Ping's face was not hideous, and there was still a bit of peace and kindness.

After the two exchanged a few words, Feng Ping talked about business.

"Master Ji, the old man came to Hui Night City this time because of the order of the Great Immortal, and he came to talk to you about some things in person.

The old man knows that you have the Burial Heaven Sword, and it seems that you have inherited the sword inheritance of your ancestor.

Therefore, the old man wanted to ask Ji Gongzi to show the Burial Sky Sword and let the old man take a look at it himself......"
