Just now Ji Tianxing felt strange, how could Shenyin Sect arrange it like this?
Even if we don't send a large number of experts to guard the mountain gate, we shouldn't let a sloppy old drunkard guard the mountain gate, right?
Now, the old drunkard has blocked the pressure of the soul of the ancestor of Sanjue without taking a step back and showing no fear at all.
Only then did he realize that the old drunkard was a strong man who had hidden his secrets.
He secretly released the power of the soul, and after some investigation, he discovered that the old drunkard's strength had actually reached the ninth level of the Soul Refining Realm.
Moreover, the old drunkard's skill is extremely profound, and it is no worse than the current ancestor of the three arts!
"No wonder the mountain gate of Shenyin Sect is so desolate, with only an old drunkard guarding it.
With him here alone, he is comparable to thousands of troops. As long as the supreme soul does not arrive, it is impossible to force his way in!
This Shenyin Sect seems to be low-key, even in decline, but it has such wisdom and courage, it is incredible!"
These thoughts flashed through Ji Tianxing's mind, and he finally understood why the emperor trusted and valued the Shenyin Sect so much.
At this time, the old drunkard carried a green-skinned gourd, raised his head and took a sip of old wine.
The strong smell of alcohol overflowed, and it actually contained powerful spiritual power, making people feel in a trance.
There was a trace of flush on his dark face, he squinted at Sanjue Ancestor and Ji Tianxing, and sneered: "Hahaha... It is a good thing for distinguished guests to come to our door, and we should treat them warmly.
However, we will not accept guests today, and we have never accepted rude guests since ancient times!
Please go back, you two, and don’t spare me my drunkenness!"
The old drunkard smelled of alcohol and said these words drunkenly.
As he finished speaking, he casually drew a deep ravine on the stone floor under his feet with the index and middle fingers of his left hand.
This ravine more than three feet long separated him from the ancestor of Sanjue.
His meaning was very clear. If Ji Tianxing and Sanjue Ancestor dared to take even half a step forward, he would not be polite.
Seeing this scene, the ancestor of Sanjue immediately frowned and shouted with a cold face: "You old drunkard, you are really unreasonable! I must teach you a lesson..."
While saying this, the ancestor of Sanjue raised his palm and was about to attack.
"Ah San!" Ji Tianxing waved his hand, signaling the Sanjue Ancestor to step back.
The ancestor of Sanjue suddenly trembled. He quickly suppressed the anger and surging mana and stepped aside obediently.
Ji Tianxing took two steps forward, looked at the old drunkard with a calm face, took out the mountain and river seal, and said: "Senior, my servant has offended me a lot, please forgive me.
I am Ji Tianxing, the Lord of Tianchen Territory. I have come here to visit your sect on the order of the emperor. I want to discuss a major matter with your sect’s leader. I would like to ask my senior to tell you about it.”
He announced his identity, showed his identity token, and expressed his intention to the Shenyin Sect in an upright manner.
When he thought about it, the old drunkard was a strong martial artist, so he would know the priorities and would not dare to make things difficult again.
But he never expected that the old drunkard glanced at him and didn't bother to look at the gold seal of the Territory Lord in his hand, so he waved his hand and said: "Young man, who you are and whose order you have taken have nothing to do with me.
It has nothing to do with this department!
This sect is a small sect that lives in seclusion from the world. It has always avoided the world, never participated in worldly disputes, and has nothing to do with the imperial courts of various clans.
Please go back and don't get entangled here, otherwise I will have no choice but to expel the guest."
Ji Tianxing suddenly frowned, stared into the old drunkard's eyes, and asked in a deep voice: "Senior, are you serious about this? You must consider the consequences!"
The old drunkard looked at him sideways, raised his head and took a sip of old wine, and said with a joking sneer: "Are you threatening me? Hahaha... Young people today are really arrogant and lawless!"
After that, he carried the wine gourd, staggered back to the mountain gate, went back to the stone house and lay down.
"Hey, this damn old drunkard!" The ancestor of Sanjue suddenly turned livid with anger, his eyebrows were raised, and he wanted to catch up and argue.
Ji Tianxing waved his hand, and he quickly stopped and stepped back.
He looked at Ji Tianxing with a puzzled face and asked: "Master, is this old drunkard perhaps confused, or is he pretending to be stupid because of his drunkenness? Does he even dare to disobey the orders of the Imperial Court?"
Ji Tianxing frowned and thought for a moment, shook his head and said, "When he said these words just now, I saw that his eyes were clear and his soul was normal. It didn't look like he was lying at all.
So, this old drunkard probably doesn’t know anything about it!”
The ancestor of Sanjue became more and more confused and asked: "Even if the Shenyin Sect deliberately concealed it, the old drunkard is a top powerhouse. How could he not know the relationship between the Shenyin Sect and the Imperial Court?"
Ji Tianxing said calmly: "That's not necessarily the case. This old drunkard is just a gatekeeper, not an elder or leader of the Shenyin Sect. It's possible that he doesn't know about it."
The ancestor of Sanjue thought about it for a moment and felt that it made sense. He couldn't help but ask: "A guard guarding the mountain gate has such a strong strength. How strong is the power of Shenyin Sect?"
Is it possible that there is still a supreme powerhouse in the Yuan Shen Realm sitting here?"
"It's possible." Ji Tianxing nodded.
The ancestor of Sanjue thought for a moment and asked: "Master, what are you going to do? You don't know who the leader of the Shenyin Sect is, and you can't contact him.
Are we being stopped by an old drunkard, so we can only wait here?"
Ji Tianxing shook his head, showed a playful smile, and said: "That's not necessary, I have my own way."
After that, he rummaged through the space ring for a while and soon found a jade slip for communication.
He entered a message into the jade slip and released it.
"call out!"
The jade slip turned into a stream of light and flew into the sky, then disappeared immediately.
When the ancestor of Sanjue saw this scene, he asked doubtfully: "Master, what are you..."
Ji Tianxing smiled and explained: "A long time ago, I knew a good, upright and brave young man who happened to be a disciple of the Shenyin Sect.
When I went to the Xiao Clan before, I saved his life again on the way, so he gave me two jade slips for communication and told me to contact him in the future, which will come in handy today."
The ancestor of Sanjue suddenly realized this and stood aside silently without saying anything more.
The two of them waited at the mountain gate for a hundred breaths before they saw a dazzling true energy light on the top of the mountain.
The next moment, a young man in a white robe, riding a thousand-meter-long dark gray dragon, rushed over at lightning speed.
"Whoosh!"
In just two breaths, the gray dragon rushed to the foot of the mountain gate and stopped in front of Ji Tianxing and the ancestor of Sanjue.
The strong wind brought by the dragon blew the sand and rocks under the mountain gate and kicked up the dust all over the sky.
The young man in white robe didn't care at all. His face flushed with excitement and he jumped off the dragon's back in a hurry.
He rushed to Ji Tianxing like an arrow and shouted excitedly: "Brother Tianxing, you are finally here! I have known for a long time that we will meet again sooner or later!"
