Originally, Dao Xingyun and the three hall masters were leading three thousand elite god kings to set up a defensive formation outside the War Dragon Palace.
It was an imperial-level formation, used to cover the entire War Dragon Palace.
With the protection of this imperial formation, the murderer cannot easily sneak into the Dragon Palace.
Even if the murderer wants to break the formation, he will alert several palace masters and expose his whereabouts.
The War Dragon Palace originally had a protective formation, but the level of the defensive formation was too low, and it was only the best at the king level.
The terrifying murderer must be a strong man in the God Emperor realm, and a mere king-level divine formation cannot stop him at all.
Originally, the masters of the three halls and Dao Xingyun used all their strength to cast spells, and with the cooperation of three thousand elite god kings, they would be able to build the formation within four days.
However, the Third Palace Master and Dao Xingyun are not familiar with each other, have never fought side by side, and are not familiar with each other's methods at all.
Even the way they cast spells is different, let alone the research and understanding of spells.
Dao Xingyun wanted to follow his ideas and arrange a large formation that he was good at.
But the Third Hall Master insisted on setting up the formation he was good at and asked Dao Xingyun to cooperate with him in casting the spell.
Dao Xingyun's status is not as good as that of the Third Hall Master, and without the support and obedience of the three thousand elite god-kings, he can only obey the orders of the Third Hall Master.
So, he started to arrange the divine formation according to the wishes and instructions of the three hall masters.
He originally thought that the world would be brighter if he took a step back, but he did not expect that during the process of setting up the grand formation, he would have many conflicts with the three hall masters.
The Lord of the Third Palace commanded him with an orderly tone and constantly urged him to speed up the progress.
Unfortunately, the two have never gotten along. They practice Shinto with different systems and methods, and they have many opinions and differences when setting up formations.
After the two argued and ridiculed each other too many times, the third hall master became more serious and no longer showed mercy to Dao Xingyun, but directly criticized and corrected him.
Dao Xingyun didn't want things to escalate and the plan to collapse, so he could only endure it.
But his mentality became worse and worse, and he failed to complete his tasks on time.
When night fell, he argued with the third hall master again, and the third hall master scolded him in anger.
After all, Dao Xingyun is also a strong man in the middle realm of the God Emperor. How can the seven masters of the temple endure it without any bottom line?
What's more, three thousand elite god-kings were present, and many people were gloating about his misfortune and watching his joke.
Dao Xingyun was also angry, and simply gave the task of setting up the formation to the third hall master and quit.
If the three hall masters alone led the three thousand elite god kings to set up the formation, it would be impossible to complete it in four days.
Therefore, the third hall master threatened Dao Xingyun to report this matter to the second hall master and the first hall master.
It is foreseeable that he will definitely add fuel to the fire and put all the blame on Dao Xingyun.
But Dao Xingyun was so angry that he refused to give in and left without looking back.
He returned to the Purple Star Palace of the War Dragon Palace and entered the secret room alone to meditate and adjust his breath, trying to calm down his anger.
However, the masters of the three halls could not stop setting up the formation, so they could only stay outside the War Dragon Palace and continue to set up the formation in the sky.
If the plan to set up the formation was stopped, he would also be reprimanded by the master of the hall, and what was reasonable would become unreasonable.
…
Ji Tianxing, led by several generals, has been strengthening defenses in the past two days.
But when he carried out various tasks and orders, he never forgot to monitor the Third Palace Master and Dao Xingyun.
When night fell, he also saw the quarrel between the third palace master and Dao Xingyun, and saw Dao Xingyun leaving with a dark face.
The two powerful God Emperors separated and had a very unpleasant quarrel. Only then did Ji Tianxing see the opportunity and decided to take action tonight.
Soon, two hours passed.
In the sky outside the War Dragon Palace, the divine light was still brilliant, and pillars of divine power were constantly cutting through the night sky.
Those were the three palace masters and three thousand elite guards, still concentrating on building the divine formation.
Dao Xingyun was in the secret room of the Purple Star Palace. After calming down his anger, he quietly closed his eyes and meditated.
Although, he has his own character and self-esteem.
But he must remain calm and restrained at all times, which is also the principle he has always adhered to.
At this time, he was blaming himself in his heart. He shouldn't have been unable to suppress his anger today and had a conflict with the three hall masters.
Having a quarrel with the third hall master out of anger will leave a bad impression on everyone, regardless of whether he will be criticized by the main hall master.
Originally, several palace masters rejected him, but now that the third palace master has such a conflict with him, it will only make his situation more and more difficult in the future.
"Nowadays, several palace masters reject me, and even the main palace master is a little disappointed in me.
At this time, I should endure the humiliation and bear the burden and pay in obscurity.
Otherwise, even if we join forces to kill the murderer, they will join forces to exclude me in the future.
That’s all, I’ll give the Third Hall Master a break tonight and let him calm down and reflect.
I will still go to help him set up the formation in the early morning tomorrow..."
These thoughts flashed through Dao Xingyun's mind, and his mood gradually became calmer and settled down.
At this moment, the guard's voice came from the door of the secret room, "Reporting to the Lord of the Seventh Palace, Counselor Changfeng asks for an audience."
Dao Xingyun did not bring any close guards with him. The two guards guarding the door of the secret room were both subordinates of Qian Zhan.
After hearing the guard's announcement, Dao Xingyun opened his eyes, frowned, and thought to himself: "Counsellor Changfeng? Isn't that a close aide of Qianzhan? What is he here for?"
When he was confused, Dao Xingyun didn't think much and said: "Let him come in."
As his voice fell, the door to the secret room was pushed open.
A tall and straight young man from the Desolate tribe entered the secret room with his head slightly lowered.
Dao Xingyun had met Yi Jingfeng before and knew that he was Qian Zhan's confidant, but he had not paid any attention to it.
After all, those generals in the God King Realm cannot stand in the eyes of the powerful God Emperor.
Dao Xingyun was still sitting cross-legged on the futon made of cold jade. When Yi Jingfeng came closer, he glanced at him and asked: "Why did you ask to see me late at night?"
In fact, he also understood in his heart that how could a small counselor have the right to come to him?
The Submarine War must have sent this counselor to convey some news to him.
As expected.
After Yi Jingfeng saluted him and said hello, he took out a jade slip and handed it to him.
"Master of the Seventh Hall, this is something that the Governor asked his subordinates to hand over to you. It is said to be related to the identity of the murderer. Please be sure to take a look at it."
At this time, Yi Jingfeng was only three steps away from Dao Xingyun.
"What? Is it related to the identity of the murderer?" Dao Xingyun's attention was completely attracted by the jade slip and not on Yi Jingfeng at all.
What's more, Yi Jingfeng was just a high-ranking god-king, and he didn't take him seriously at all, and he was not on guard.
Dao Xingyun frowned, his face became solemn, and his heart was full of doubts and expectations, and he quickly reached out to take the jade slip.
His consciousness invaded the jade slip and he immediately heard a familiar voice.
"Dao Xingyun, your death has come!"
There is no doubt that this is Ji Tianxing's voice.
Of course, it can also be said to be the voice of the Sword God back then.
Dao Xingyun was stunned on the spot, his eyes widened with a look of astonishment on his face.
