Everyone was kneeling down devoutly. Only Ji Tianxing did not kneel and even dared to look straight at the Divine Master statue!
This was absolutely a great disrespect!
This was the first time the Great Protector had encountered such a thing in the hundreds of years he had been overseeing the Vast Heaven Pagoda.
He did not recite the Holy Text. His sharp gaze stared at Ji Tianxing, and anger was written all over his face.
A formless pressure was released from his body and suppressed towards Ji Tianxing.
In order not to affect the worship ceremony, he chose to use this method to remind Ji Tianxing.
He believed that even if the white-robed youth was momentarily absent-minded, he would definitely kneel down respectfully after being reminded.
Swoosh!
The formless pressure enveloped Ji Tianxing, causing his body to tremble twice. His face also became ghastly pale.
However, he did not have any reaction. He still stood tall and straight with his eyes looking straight at the Divine Master statue. His expression was still changing.
Seeing this scene, the Great Protector was instantly enraged. He thought to himself, "Damn brat, you actually ignored my reminder and still dare to be so rude!!"
The worship ceremony could not proceed for the time being. The Great Protector stared coldly at Ji Tianxing and scolded in a deep voice, "You junior, how dare you!
You actually dare to offend the Divine Master's dignity and disrupt the worship ceremony. You really don't know what's good for you. Why aren't you kneeling down and admitting your guilt?! "
The Great Protector's angry roar suddenly sounded like thunder exploding in the main hall.
The hundreds of young geniuses and the six Divine Envoys were all shocked.
Everyone turned their heads and looked around the main hall. Finally, their gazes fell on Ji Tianxing.
Seeing him standing stiffly on the spot with his eyes looking straight at the Divine Master statue, everyone's expression changed drastically. They revealed complicated expressions.
Most of the young geniuses were shocked and puzzled by this. They secretly sized up Ji Tianxing and discussed in whispers.
"Who is this guy? He actually dares to behave atrociously in the temple. Is he tired of living? "
"This is the most sacred worship ceremony. Everyone is kneeling down to worship. He actually dares to stand?"
"Hmph! Looks like he's from the Chu Yun Empire. What a disgrace! "
"Is that brat crazy? How dare he lose his composure in front of the Divine Master's statue? Isn't that courting death? "
"The Head Protector is furious. This brat is finished! He will definitely be punished severely, and even expelled from the Vast Heaven Pagoda! "
The geniuses of the various countries all looked on coldly as if they were watching a good show.
The young geniuses of the Chu Yun Empire were even more shocked, and their expressions became even more complicated.
"Ji Tianxing has always been arrogant and condescending. I didn't expect him to behave so atrociously in the Shrine!"
"That damned bastard! Don't drag us into this mess!"
When Kuang Long and Lan Yiqing came back to their senses, a cold light flashed in their eyes as they sneered inwardly.
"Hahaha … I really underestimated this guy. I didn't expect him to be so arrogant that he even dares to offend the Divine Master!"
"Hmph! Originally, I was still cultivating diligently, vowing to surpass him and personally kill him for revenge …
Who would have thought that he would offend the Divine Master's dignity in front of so many people? This was a heinous crime!
The Head Protector will definitely punish him severely. It would be best if he is expelled from the Vast Heaven Pagoda. Then, the honor of being the number one genius of the Chu Yun Empire will return to my hands! "
Yin Wu Que was standing behind Ji Tianxing. When he saw this scene, his heart was burning with anxiety, and his eyes were filled with worry.
He hurriedly transmitted his voice to Ji Tianxing and shouted, "Young Master Ji! What are you standing there for? Quickly kneel down and pay your respects!
Ji Tianxing! You despicable brat, we are in the Shrine now. Don't be stupid! "
Yin Wu Que shouted anxiously. He was so anxious that his face had turned red.
Unfortunately, Ji Tianxing did not respond. He also ignored Yin Wu Que's voice, and his body was still stiff as he stood there.
Lin Daoyi also frowned, and a look of worry and anger flashed in his eyes.
When he saw that Ji Tianxing had become the center of attention and was being criticized and mocked, he hurriedly shouted coldly, "Ji Tianxing, you are in the Shrine. Do not be rude!"
However, Ji Tianxing still did not respond. He did not make a sound, and he did not move. He was like a wooden puppet.
No one knew that just now, an invisible layer of shackles in the depths of his soul had been broken.
Some memories and images sealed in the depths of his soul surged out like a tide, drowning his Primordial Spirit.
His consciousness was swallowed by a black whirlpool, and a vast image appeared in the depths of his soul.
In the sky above a vast sea of clouds, two figures stood proudly.
The figure on the left was a valiant man wearing golden armor and a wide cape.
This person was tall and muscular, and his face was dignified. He exuded a domineering aura that looked down on all living things.
When he saw this person's face clearly, Ji Tianxing was shocked.
This person looked exactly the same as the statue of Divine Master Taihao in the Shrine!
Obviously, this man in golden armor was Martial God Taihao.
In the white sea of clouds beneath his feet, half of a dark golden pagoda was revealed. It shone with a sacred golden light.
Ji Tianxing immediately recognized that it was the Clear Sky Pagoda.
He looked at the second figure in the image.
It was a tall young man in white robes. His face was resolute and cold. His eyebrows were sharp and his eyes were bright. His eyes contained a domineering aura that looked down on the world.
His attire was rather simple. He only wore a snow-white robe and a pair of black cloth shoes.
He had a silver belt around his waist, and his long hair was tied up with a green hairband.
When Ji Tianxing saw his face clearly, a trace of fear flashed in the depths of his soul.
This white-robed young man's appearance was exactly the same as his, without the slightest difference!
However, this white-robed young man was not him, but Kenshin!
At this moment, Martial God Taihao bowed to Kenshin and said solemnly, "I've long heard of Kenshin's name. It's my honor to invite Kenshin to Mount God-Bestowment."
Kenshin looked at Martial God Taihao calmly and nodded slightly. He asked, "Why are you looking for me?"
Martial God Taihao did not answer. Instead, he asked, "I heard that Kenshin once sparred with Luo Shui and defeated her in three moves. He also enlightened Luo Shui and made her Divine Power reach the Perfection Stage?"
"That's true," Kenshin nodded calmly.
Martial God Taihao's eyes flickered. He said with anticipation, "I've always admired Kenshin, and I've long wanted to get to know you.
Besides, I believe that my Sword Principle has reached the Perfection Stage. No one in the world can defeat me.
If I can't spar with you, it'll be my greatest regret. "
Kenshin had expected this. He nodded calmly and said, "Please make your move."
Martial God Taihao's palm flashed with golden light. A divine sword with a golden sheath appeared, and he assumed a stance.
"Kenshin, draw your sword!"
Kenshin shook his head and said calmly, "The sword is in the heart, between the Heavens and Earth, outside of the rift. It's not in the hand!"
