Facing Ji Tianxing's salute and thanks, Xuan Bing and Zidian bowed slightly and returned the salute.
Then, they both smiled and said in a playful tone: "Sword God, when we first met in the depths of the Sea of Chaos, you were already in trouble and were hunted down by the powerful men of the temple.
Unexpectedly, after several years, not only have you not resolved the original grudges, but you have also made new enemies."
"If we guessed correctly, I'm afraid you've offended all the four major temples, right?"
Although Xuan Bing and Zidian had a teasing tone, they still had some concern for Ji Tianxing.
Ji Tianxing is the chosen one. They are believers who believe in the way of heaven and protect the sea of chaos. This is secondary.
And Ji Tianxing helped them refine the emperor-level artifacts and left them an emperor-level heaven and earth furnace. That was a real kindness. As an 'uneducated' sea beast tribe with clear grievances, this favor must be repaid.
.
Ji Tianxing naturally knew what they were thinking, so he explained with a smile: "I am the so-called chosen one, and the four major temples are determined to find the chosen person, in an attempt to open the door to heaven and pry into the secret of immortality.
Therefore, it is reasonable for them to bite me like a mad dog and chase me across most of the continent of origin and even to the Sea of Chaos."
Xuan Bing and Zidian thought for a moment and nodded to express their understanding.
"That's it! Greed is indeed the original sin!"
"It's not surprising. We were wondering before about what outrageous things you did to make the four major temples hate you so much."
After a pause, Xuan Bing asked again: "By the way, Sword God, can you tell us why you are the chosen one? How are you determined?
Also, what’s so special about the chosen one?”
Ji Tianxing frowned, pointed to the depths of the Chaos Sea in the north, and said, "I can't explain this matter for a while. Let's talk about it as we walk."
Therefore, Xuan Bing and Zidian escorted him and flew all the way to the depths of the Chaos Sea.
Along the way, Ji Tianxing explained to Xuan Bing and Zidian: "The fact that I am the chosen one is not determined by myself, but is unanimously agreed upon by the powerful men of the four major temples.
As for the special features, apart from what you know before, the extraordinary talents, super strength, various tricks and extreme intelligence, the rest is related to the Gate of Heaven..."
Although, Ji Tianxing's words sounded like bragging and a bit arrogant.
But Xuan Bing and Zidian nodded their heads in agreement, not feeling exaggerated at all.
After all, these characteristics of Ji Tianxing are recognized by many powerful God Emperors.
After listening to his explanation, Zidian asked: "Sword God, you mean... you are not even sure whether you are the chosen one?"
Ji Tianxing waved his hand and said: "Of course not, I have been sure of this for a long time."
Zidian nodded and said: "Okay, what are your plans next? Are you going to go to the depths of the Chaos Sea to ignite the eternal fire and open the door to heaven?"
Ji Tianxing nodded slightly and added, "However, before doing this, I have to retreat to heal my wounds.
I guess the people from the Taiyu Temple and the Immortal Temple will not let me go easily.
Even if they lose the chase, they will most likely go near the Gate of Heaven, waiting to capture me."
Xuan Bing and Zidian looked at each other and discussed in secret.
"There is no objection or suspense to the fact that the Sword God is the chosen one. There is nothing wrong with us cooperating with him for mutual benefit."
"But there is one thing that I am always worried about. Our duty is to guard the Sea of Chaos and guard the gate of heaven. We do not allow any living beings to come close. What about the Sword God?
He is going to the Gate of Heaven, should we stop him?"
"I think, according to the racial memory passed down from generation to generation, we should intercept all intruders.
However, in the past tens of thousands of years, the powerful God Emperors of the four major temples have arrived at the Gate of Heaven many times, and we have not been punished by Heaven...
So, I think we can turn a blind eye and let the Sword God enter that area."
"Isn't this not good? In the past, when the powerful men from the temple arrived at the gate of heaven, we couldn't resist it, so surely heaven would not punish us harshly.
But if we allow the Sword God to reach the gate of heaven, we may not be forgiven by heaven."
"Who can say for sure about such a mysterious thing?
Besides, aren't you curious about what secrets are hidden in the Gate of Heaven?
You don’t want to know whether the Sword God can ignite the eternal fire and what will happen after opening the door to heaven?”
"Uh... If you put it this way, I'm not the only one who is curious. I believe that all powerful people will be interested and want to know the answer."
"Anyway, the Sword God is the chosen one, so let's make an exception and let him go.
What does the chosen one mean? That must be the incarnation recognized by heaven and walking in the world!
If he goes to open the door to heaven, isn't it equivalent to going home?"
"Well, what you said does make some sense, so let's do what you say."
Xuan Bing and Zidian communicated privately through voice messages. After discussing for a while, they made up their minds.
Ji Tianxing had long noticed the two of them muttering secretly, and seeing the changes in their eyes, he guessed that they were discussing something important.
But he didn't ask and just pretended that nothing happened.
Next, Xuan Bing and Zidian hurried side by side, rushing back to their lair.
Ji Tianxing thought carefully for a moment before making a decision.
"Xuan Bing, Zidian, I need your help with something."
Xuan Bing and Zidian turned to look at him and said calmly: "You tell me, if we can help you, we will do our best."
Ji Tianxing said in a sincere tone: "As you have guessed just now, I will recover from my injuries soon and will definitely go to the Gate of Heaven, and the powerful men from the two major temples will also rush there to ambush me there.
Therefore, I hope you can send a message to the other lords and ask them to come and help."
"This..." Xuan Bing and Zidian were stunned for a moment, both hesitant.
It is true that they are willing to help because they have received the favor of the Sword God.
But the other four sea beast lords have nothing to do with the Sword God, so how can they come to help?
Xuan Bing said with some embarrassment: "Long Tian, we regard you as a friend, and we will naturally help you resist the powerful men of the two major temples, but we cannot make decisions for the other four lords."
Ji Tianxing nodded to express his understanding and said in a relaxed tone: "Blue Dragon and Yu Bingxin came to help me out before, and they fought with Taiyu God Emperor for this reason, and they must have been injured.
Judging from their behavior, I believe they will probably rush to help after receiving the summons.
As for the other two sea beast lords..."
After pondering for a moment, he smiled and said: "First explain my identity and intentions to them, and secondly, explain the invasion of the two major temples.
Guarding the Sea of Chaos and the Gate of Heaven is their mission and responsibility, and they should make the right choice."
