The light between heaven and earth was dim, and the surrounding mountains and forests were completely silent.
Ji Tianxing stood above the ruins, his clothes and long hair fluttering in the wind.
His expression was calm, without sadness or joy.
Looking up at the vortex of calamity clouds above his head, his eyes revealed the brilliance of calmness and wisdom.
The aura all over his body is also extremely restrained, as calm as a mortal.
But in this state, he is like a god who does not eat the fireworks of the world, but is aloof, overlooking all living beings.
In this world, no one can understand what kind of state that is.
That is not the realm of martial arts, but the realm of Shinto.
More, it comes from a state of the soul.
"Whoa!"
The vortex of calamity clouds in the sky quickly dissipated and turned into a ray of sacred golden light, falling from the sky.
Ji Tianxing was bathed in golden light, his body and soul were baptized, and they were rapidly strengthening.
A quarter of an hour later, the sacred golden light gradually disappeared.
His strength has also increased several times, reaching an even more unimaginable level.
"Huh... going through three heavenly tribulations in a short period of time is really nerve-wracking and exhausting."
Ji Tianxing took a long breath and showed a look of relief.
Even someone as strong as him, who survived three tribulations in a row, still felt extremely exhausted.
But this is the will of heaven, and even the gods cannot resist it.
Unless he hides in the Nine Heavens and Ten Jue Towers, he will not be able to withstand the test of heavenly calamity.
But he can't hide in the tower forever.
In that case, if he doesn't survive the nine heavenly tribulations, he will never reach the realm of martial saint.
Ji Tianxing looked at the surrounding mountains and realized that he had indeed been delayed for three months in trying to escape the tribulation here.
"I have been away from Tianzhu Mountain for more than half a year, and I don't know what the situation is like on the mountain?"
He murmured something in a low voice and prepared to turn around and leave.
But at this moment, a huge gap suddenly opened in the sky behind him.
"Whoa!"
From the cracks, dazzling golden light burst out, illuminating the world for hundreds of miles.
The golden light condensed into a giant palm covering the sky, and with the power to suppress everything, it struck down hard.
Before the giant palm arrived, the terrifying repressive force had already enveloped Ji Tianxing.
He felt like he was stuck in a quagmire, unable to move even an inch, and the skin and nerves all over his body were tense.
"It's a strong martial saint!"
He reacted in an instant, and a strong Martial Saint took action.
The power of that giant golden palm was enough to threaten his life!
At the critical moment, he took out the Heaven Burial Sword without hesitation and stabbed the golden palm with a fierce sword.
The Heavenly Burial Sword burst out with golden light that soared into the sky, condensing into a giant sword a hundred feet long.
The swords and palms collided, causing a loud "boom" sound.
At that moment, a thunderous noise shook the sky and spread hundreds of miles around.
The golden sword collapsed on the spot, shattering into countless fragments and flying around.
The giant palm covering the sky was also pierced with a big hole, but its power was not reduced, and it hit Ji Tianxing with a bang.
"Bang!"
Ji Tianxing was knocked away by the giant palm of golden light. He flew dozens of miles away with a pale face, and crashed into a ruins.
The hundred-foot-high ruins were instantly shattered into pieces, sending up huge amounts of dust.
After a long time, the smoke and golden light in the sky dissipated.
Ji Tianxing flew back into the sky, not caring about arranging his messy hair and clothes, holding the Sky Burial Sword and looking towards the north.
I saw a purple-robed figure walking slowly from the darkness.
It was a man wearing a purple robe and with white hair. He was thin and tall, and his eyes were as sharp as swords.
However, he wore a mask made of purple jade, covering his entire face.
Except for a pair of eyes, his face could not be seen clearly.
That purple jade mask is not a mortal thing, it can block the detection of spiritual consciousness, making it impossible for people to pry into his true appearance.
There is no doubt that the man in purple robe does not want to reveal his identity.
Ji Tianxing stared at him with gloomy eyes, looked up and down several times, and vaguely felt that he was somewhat familiar.
But he couldn't see any clues and couldn't guess the identity of the other party.
So, he quietly used the Divine Eye of Ten Thousand Thoughts to see through the truth.
His pupils immediately turned into dark gold, releasing mysterious power as he looked towards the purple-robed man.
The camouflage effect of the purple jade mask was immediately seen through by the Wan Nian Divine Eye.
Ji Tianxing vaguely saw a pale face under the mask, with a white beard.
It's a pity that the Wan Nian Divine Eye cannot completely break through the disguise of the mask.
The faces Ji Tianxing saw were also a little blurry and distorted, making it impossible to identify who they were.
The man in purple robe looked at him sharply and said in a low and hoarse voice: "Ji Tianxing, there is no need to waste your efforts. You cannot see through this Emperor's Void Mask."
Ji Tianxing could naturally tell that this person's voice was also fake.
He frowned and asked in a cold tone: "You actually know me? How can you find me so accurately in this vast ruins of gods!
You want to kill me, but you put on a mask to hide your identity, which means that I also know you, or at least I have met you!"
The purple-robed man's reaction remained calm, without any disturbance.
He said in a low tone: "You are from Tianzhu Mountain, and you claim to be the successor of the Sword God. It is difficult for a strong man from all major forces not to recognize you.
As for the identity of this emperor, you don’t have to guess anymore, there will never be an answer.
Because you neither know me nor have you seen me."
Ji Tianxing raised his eyebrows and sneered: "Oh? So, we have no enmity or enmity?"
The purple-robed man shook his head calmly and said in an indifferent tone: "Of course it is impossible to be without injustice! The sword god has defeated so many strong men and killed so many people in his life.
I don’t know how many powerful people he caused, their families were destroyed, and how many forces declined and were destroyed because of this.
The sword god has fallen, and we have no way to take revenge. We can only blame Tianzhu Mountain for this.
You are the successor of the Sword God and the successor of Tianzhu Mountain. If I don’t kill you, who will I kill?”
Ji Tianxing knew very well that this person's words were half true and half false, so he couldn't believe them all.
But he did not go into details and continued to ask: "The ruins are so big and I am traveling alone, how can you know my whereabouts?"
A hint of contempt flashed through the eyes of the man in purple robe, and he sneered: "Of course this is thanks to your arrogance and arrogance!
After the Yin-Yang Secret Realm appeared, you had a fierce battle with people from the Sky-Ending Alliance, which was witnessed by powerful men from many forces and spread around a few months ago.
Although you didn't give your name, your features are so obvious that people who know you can certainly guess that it's you.
What's even more ridiculous is that I have been searching for you in the ruins of the gods for three months, and it was originally very difficult to find you.
Unexpectedly, you are here to overcome the tribulation and make such a big noise, which can be clearly seen thousands of miles away!
You’ve made it clear that you don’t care about life and death and are seeking your own death!”
Ji Tianxing suddenly realized this and was secretly vigilant.
“Back then, I was the most powerful person of my generation and the most powerful person in the world, and I offended countless forces and powerful people.
Even now, there are still countless powerful people spying on my inherited skills and the mystery of my ascension.
There are many forces and powerful people who are eyeing Tianzhu Mountain.
I will have to be more careful when I act in the future.
After all, it’s easy to dodge an open gun but hard to avoid a hidden arrow.”
