On the way back to Central State City, Ji Tianxing was still silently calculating.
"Currently, the Demon Race's influence is rapidly growing. They are madly attacking the Western Wilderness and the Eastern Sea, harassing the human race's borders.
Chaotic times are coming. Soon, the various races will definitely fight the Demon Race to the death.
Between me and the Demon Emperor, there will be a fated confrontation.
Before that, I must find Kenshin's four followers as soon as possible and ask them to come out and help. Only then can we resist the Demon Race.
If Xiao Clan's Ancestor is also one of Kenshin's followers, then there are only two followers left. I still need to continue searching … "
Five days later, Ji Tianxing returned to Central State City.
After returning to the Monarch Mansion, he summoned the steward and asked a few questions.
Knowing that the ten days he was away were peaceful and nothing major happened, he entered a secret room with peace of mind and went into seclusion to cultivate.
Although, he urgently wanted to find Kenshin's four followers and establish his own faction.
But he was very clear that increasing his own strength was the most important thing, the most important thing.
If he was not strong enough, even if he found the four followers, they might not be willing to come out and help him.
Therefore, whenever he had a bit of time and leisure, he would go into seclusion to cultivate and strive to increase his strength.
In a secret room filled with spiritual energy, he sat cross-legged on a jade throne. He quickly swallowed spirit stones and elixirs, cultivating the way of the sword soul.
Five days later, he had accumulated a vast amount of magic power and nurtured his soul to an extremely powerful level.
Then, his soul entered Kenshin's tomb and began to comprehend and practice the Nine Swords of the Burial Of Heaven.
Whether it was the Sword Drawing Style or the Sword Thrusting Style, they all required millions of times of diligent practice to achieve the strongest effect and power.
The process of cultivation was very dry and drained a lot of magic power.
He repeatedly drew and thrusted the sword, condensing his spirit, will and magic power into one, constantly tempering his sword arts and comprehending his own sword intent.
For ten whole days, he did not sleep or rest, drawing and thrusting the sword more than ten thousand times.
The gray fog in Kenshin's tomb was broken apart by him bit by bit, revealing even more empty areas.
The previously empty space with a radius of ten miles gradually expanded to a radius of fifteen miles.
More patterns and lines appeared on the mysterious formation on the ground.
Unfortunately, such a huge formation was still only the tip of the iceberg.
Ji Tianxing observed and studied it many times, but he could not find any clues. Instead, he became more and more puzzled.
Even with his attainments as a Formation Dao Grandmaster, he was unable to see through the mysteries of this grand array.
He couldn't help but suspect that the grade of this mysterious grand spell formation far exceeded that of a Soul-grade spell formation. It was at the Nascent Divinity level, or perhaps … even beyond that!
Unknowingly, half a month had passed.
Through this half a month of closed door cultivation, Ji Tianxing's cultivation had steadily increased, gradually advancing towards the third level of the Soul Refining Realm.
Moreover, his attainments in the Way of the Sword had doubled, and the power of the Nine Swords of the Burial Of Heaven was much stronger than before.
The only thing he felt regretful about was that he still hadn't been able to comprehend his own sword intent.
If he could add his own sword intent into the Nine Swords of the Burial Of Heaven and the Soul-grade spell sword, he would definitely be able to bring his swordsmanship to the acme of perfection, possessing unimaginable power.
But he also knew that something like comprehending sword intent could only be understood and not explained.
Some Sword Dao martial artists couldn't comprehend it their entire lives, but some people could inadvertently comprehend it.
This kind of thing could only be left to nature and could not be forced.
On the morning of the sixteenth day, he ended his closed door cultivation and came out in high spirits.
Not long after he walked out of the secret chamber and returned to his room, the housekeeper of the residence hurried over to report the news.
"Domain Lord, good news, there's great news!"
The old housekeeper's emotions were rather excited, and his spirits were high. He entered the room with a flushed face and bowed to him.
Ji Tianxing raised his eyebrows, vaguely having a premonition in his heart, and hurriedly asked, "What good news has made you so excited?"
The old housekeeper hurriedly said, "Sir, just yesterday, the Imperial Court issued an edict, announcing to the world.
The Third Prince, Long Zaitian, used sorcery to control the head of the Duanmu family and the Divine General of the West Wilderness, as well as the heads and heads of hundreds of noble families.
In the past ten years, the Third Prince has used sorcery to recruit soldiers and buy horses, constantly expanding his power, invading countless noble families and torturing countless people.
He has committed heinous crimes and committed all kinds of evil, causing the people to complain and greatly damaging the prestige and dignity of the Imperial Court.
After careful investigation and evidence collection, the Imperial Court finally confirmed the Third Prince's crimes.
Therefore, the Imperial Court has decided to put the Third Prince on trial and announce the results to the world as a warning to others. "
When Ji Tianxing heard the news, he was immediately shocked, and a smile flashed in his eyes.
"Well, it has been more than a month since the incident, and the news has already spread throughout the Central Region. The Imperial Court should also make a judgment.
Housekeeper, in the edict announced by the Imperial Court, did it state the result of the judgment? How did the Imperial Court deal with Long Zaitian? "
The old housekeeper said with a smile, "Of course it was announced, and it was already carried out yesterday!
The Imperial Court has announced that the Third Prince's crimes are unforgivable, and he must be severely punished to rectify the situation.
The Imperial Court has decided to strip the Third Prince of his identity as a prince, take back his fief, Flying Dragon City, and remove all his official positions and titles. He will be demoted to a commoner and sent to the northern border.
All of the Third Prince's power and wealth have been taken back by the Imperial Court, including his relatives and family. They have all been demoted to commoners and sent to the southern border.
From now on, the Third Prince can only stay in the northern border to resist the invasion of the Demon Race. He will never be able to step into the Central Region, nor can he be an official. "
The old housekeeper said with great excitement.
To him, the former Imperial Court Prince was an incomparably noble person. Now that he had fallen to such a state, it was really shocking and unbelievable.
But after Ji Tianxing heard it, he frowned, and a cold light flashed in his eyes.
"I didn't expect the Imperial Court's judgment to be like this!
Although it sounds clear and logical and extremely solemn, in the end, this punishment is really too light! "
He muttered in his heart, very dissatisfied with the result of the punishment.
In his opinion, with the crimes that Long Zaitian had committed, the Imperial Court should at least sentence him to death.
But the result was not so!
Even if the Imperial Court stripped Long Zaitian of his identity as a prince, confiscated all his properties, power, and wealth, and demoted him to a commoner and sent him to the border to resist the Demon Race.
But he was still alive and not executed!
For a sinister, despicable, ruthless, and shrewd person like Long Zaitian, all power and wealth were worldly possessions.
As long as he was still alive, there was still hope, there was still a chance to make a comeback!
