General Du and Vice General Li waited eagerly in the square for a full hour, but no one came to pick up the books.
Both of them were a little anxious, but due to the orders, they could only wait patiently.
Not long after, a white figure suddenly flew out of the sea of clouds halfway up the mountain.
It was a young man wearing a white robe, flying in the wind and descending from Fengshen Mountain.
Seeing the young man in white robe appear, Vice General Li breathed a sigh of relief and said with a pleased expression: "General Du, that man should be here to receive the tribute.
Once we hand over the tribute, the mission will be completed."
General Du nodded and said: "After handing in the tribute, we will lurk under Fengshen Mountain, waiting for that kid to appear!
It is said that the other two empires have also learned about the Sky Burial Sword, and they seem to be acting secretly and sending people here.
By then, things will definitely be very difficult!”
Vice General Li kept looking up at the sky, watching the white-robed figure getting closer and closer.
He suddenly frowned, a gleam flashed in his eyes, and asked via voice transmission: "General Du, look at that young man in white robe. Why does he look familiar?"
"Looks familiar?" General Du was stunned for a moment, looking intently at the white-robed young man in the sky, and his expression suddenly changed.
"It does look familiar! This person's figure, appearance and clothing style look a bit like Ji Tianxing!"
As he spoke, a white light flashed in General Du's palm, and a picture scroll appeared.
On the scroll is a young man in white robe, holding a dark and mysterious sword. It is Ji Tianxing and the Sky Burial Sword!
General Du glanced at the portrait, then looked up at the white-robed young man flying in the air, and a look of surprise suddenly flashed in his eyes.
"It is indeed him! Great, God is helping me!
Unexpectedly, the person who came to receive the tribute was Ji Tianxing!
It’s really hard to find anything without wearing iron shoes, and it takes no effort at all to get it!”
While transmitting the message, a white light flashed in his palm, and he put the scroll away.
Vice General Li was also in a very excited mood. He sent a message and asked: "General Du, should we take action directly, or should we take action after handing in the tribute?"
General Du sneered secretly, and warned through a message: "Don't be anxious, hand in the tribute first, confirm his identity, and then grab the sword!"
Lieutenant General Li hesitated for a moment and asked with some worry: "But we are here as envoys. If we take action directly, wouldn't it cause trouble to the Holy Emperor if the matter is exposed?"
General Du was startled for a moment and said in a cold voice: "First seize the sword and then talk. If he is looking for death, then kill him!
Anyway, he is just a candidate for the disciple of God. When the time comes, let’s fight to the death without any proof!
If we don’t take action today, we will have no chance in the future!”
After hearing what he said, Vice General Li no longer hesitated and made up his mind.
After a while, Ji Tianxing fell from the sky and landed on the square.
He stood expressionless in the field, looking at General Du and Vice General Li with indifferent eyes.
The two of them hurriedly stepped forward to greet Ji Tianxing, stood in front of him, put on a respectful posture, and bowed.
"The envoys of the White Night Empire are here to hand over the tribute on the orders of the Holy Emperor!
May I ask if this young master is here to hand over the tribute?"
"Exactly." Ji Tianxing glanced at the two of them, nodded slightly and said, "Present the tribute."
General Du quickly took out a black ring from his robe sleeve and handed it to him respectfully.
"Sir, there are more than 7,000 books in this ring, including 2,000 volumes of alchemy books, 3,000 volumes of secret techniques, and more than 1,000 volumes of formation diagrams..."
General Du looked at Ji Tianxing with a smile and introduced the number of tributes to him.
Ji Tianxing was not interested in this, and said calmly: "Thank you both, please come back."
After that, he put away the black ring, turned around and left.
"Wait a minute!" General Du shouted and said, "Please tell me your name, sir, so that we know who hands the tribute to, so that we can go back and report to the Holy Emperor."
"Ji Tianxing." Ji Tianxing said his name, flew into the sky without looking back, and was about to leave.
After confirming Ji Tianxing's identity, General Du took action immediately without any hesitation.
A golden light flashed in his palm, and a dark golden sword appeared. He swung the sword towards Ji Tianxing without any explanation.
"Whoosh!"
The extremely sharp sword light flashed across the sky in an instant and struck Ji Tianxing hard on the back.
"Bang!"
Amidst the muffled sound, golden light splashed out, and Ji Tianxing was slashed away by the sword light.
The white robe on his back was torn open by the sword light, revealing a shallow bloodstain with blood seeping out.
Fortunately, his physical defense was strong, so he was suddenly attacked and only suffered minor injuries.
If it were an ordinary fifth-level soul master, he would definitely be cut in half on the spot.
The sudden change caused Ji Tianxing's expression to change dramatically.
He turned around and looked at General Du and Vice General Li, with a cold light emerging from his eyes.
"You are seeking death!" He shouted angrily, immediately steadied himself and stopped at the edge of the square.
"Whoosh!"
A black light flashed in his right hand, and the Heavenly Burial Sword appeared in his hand, emitting a cold and powerful aura.
"Ji Tianxing, if you know the truth, please hand over the Heavenly Burial Sword obediently, and I will spare your life!"
General Du shouted murderously.
When Ji Tianxing heard this, he was suddenly shocked: "These two people actually know about the Sky Burial Sword? And they still want to snatch my sword?"
Before he could think about it, General Du and Vice General Li rushed in front of him.
The two of them attacked from the left and right, and both swung their swords to create an overwhelming sword light and swung it towards him.
Hundreds of criss-crossing sword lights not only contain the power to destroy the world, but also sparkle with traces of purple thunder and lightning!
This is the proof of a strong person in the Tribulation Realm!
Ji Tianxing immediately frowned, his face became solemn, and the magic power in his body burst out crazily.
"The Dharma Body of Heaven and Earth!"
He used his secret technique to mobilize the power of thousands of miles of heaven and earth, and condensed an oval-shaped multicolored shield to protect himself.
The sword light falling from the sky struck the shield hard, causing a loud "click, click, click" sound.
In the blink of an eye, the colorful shield was shattered into pieces and dissipated on the spot.
Ji Tianxing was also hit by more than a dozen sword rays and flew towards the valley thousands of feet away.
His Secret Technique of Heaven and Earth Dharmakaya is certainly a unique skill with strong defensive power. Even a strong man at the seventh or eighth level of the Yuan Shen Realm may not be able to defeat him.
But General Du's strength has reached the level of transcending tribulation!
The slightly weaker Lieutenant General Li also possesses the strength of the ninth level of the Yuanshen Realm!
The strength gap between the two sides is too big and they are not at the same level at all.
Ji Tianxing was only knocked away and slightly injured, which already shocked the two of them beyond belief.
"Damn boy, you actually have some ability!"
"He only has the strength of the Yuanshen realm, but he can block two of our attacks without dying. It's incredible!"
"Stop talking nonsense, fight quickly, and seize the sword in his hand as soon as possible!"
General Du and Vice General Li exchanged a few words in secret, and then they burst out with great strength, charging towards Ji Tianxing with murderous intent, and launched an all-out siege.
They knew very well that this was at the foot of Fengshen Mountain, and the sound of the two sides fighting would soon alert the golden-armored guards.
They must kill Ji Tianxing and snatch the Heavenly Burial Sword in the shortest possible time!
