In the neighboring palace, there were more than one hundred God Lords and one Lower God King.
The God Lords were patrolling guards while the God King was the guard captain.
Violetcloud Grotto had five thousand guards.
One hundred people formed a team under the command of the guard captain.
One thousand people formed a camp under the command of the guard captain.
Ji Tianxing did not waste time dealing with the ordinary guards. He snuck into the guard captain's secret chamber and knocked him unconscious while he was still cultivating.
Not only would this captain be unconscious for half a month, his injuries were so severe that he would not be able to fight again. He would need ten-some years to recover.
Ji Tianxing only needed ten seconds to complete his mission and stealthily leave the palace without anyone noticing.
He then made his way to another mountain and continued to assassinate the God Kings of the Luwu race.
Unfortunately, Patriarch Luwu had more than one hundred God Kings under his command, but only thirty-some remained in Violetcloud Grotto.
Of the other one hundred and twenty God Kings, eighty percent had gone to the front lines to lead the army.
The thirty-some God Kings left in Violetcloud Grotto were basically logistics personnel.
Although they were not fighting, they were responsible for various matters, such as providing information, intelligence, and the mobilization of soldiers and weapons for the army on the front lines.
To put it simply, these thirty-some God Kings were very important. They were a powerful guarantee for the Luwu race to win the war.
Upon discovering this, Ji Tianxing no longer felt burdened, and he began to strike again and again.
In a short four hours, he had assassinated 23 Godkings consecutively and seized their Godhead Fragments.
Although the God Kings he had assassinated were all Lower and Middle God Kings, their Godhead fragments might not contain much energy or Divine Dao Laws.
But no matter how small a mosquito's leg was, it was still meat. If he wanted to return to his peak as quickly as possible, he would not mind.
"The God Kings on the periphery have all been cleaned up. The ten-some God Kings I need to deal with are all near Violetcloud Divine Hall. Most of them are the Elders and Protectors of the Luwu race."
Violetcloud Divine Hall was the core of Violetcloud Divine Palace and also the residence of Patriarch Luwu. The conference hall was also located there.
Naturally, this place was also the most heavily guarded.
Ji Tianxing flew through the air, heading for a mountain near Violetcloud Divine Hall.
He looked down from the sky and found that all the mountains were very calm. There was nothing unusual.
As it turned out, no one had discovered that the God Kings had been assassinated.
Swish!
A moment later, Ji Tianxing landed on the target mountain. He quietly avoided the guards and snuck into the depths of the palace.
He quickly discovered that the Godking who lived in the palace was cultivating in a secret room.
This person was a purple-haired old man from the Lu Wu Clan. His strength had reached the eighth level of the God King Realm.
When Ji Tianxing snuck into the secret room and saw the person's figure and face, combined with the aura of the person's divine power, he guessed the person's identity.
The Grand Elder of the Lu Wu Clan was a veteran expert who had cultivated for more than twenty thousand years, and his foundation was extremely deep.
"This is a huge problem. We must get rid of him."
This thought flashed through Ji Tianxing's mind as he quietly approached the purple-haired old man.
Unexpectedly, just as he flew behind the purple-haired old man, the purple-haired old man was already on guard and hurriedly stopped his cultivation.
Since the other party had already been alerted, Ji Tianxing no longer hesitated and attacked as fast as lightning.
"Heaven Piercing Finger!"
Ji Tianxing circulated all his energy and thrust the index and middle fingers of his right hand at the back of the purple-haired old man's head.
At the same time, the purple-haired old man opened his eyes. His dark brown pupils flashed with cold light.
Without hesitation or turning his head, he used Instant Movement to flee toward the door of the secret room.
However, Ji Tianxing's speed was even faster than his, and he stuck close to him like a shadow.
The purple-haired old man raised his palms and prepared to undo the defensive divine array and open the door.
Kacha!
With a crisp shattering sound, Ji Tianxing's two fingers struck the back of the old man's head.
The bones at the back of the old man's head shattered, and an extremely sharp Divine Soul energy surged into the old man's sea of consciousness and struck his Godhead.
Weng!
The purple-haired old man felt his mind explode, and then his vision went black and he lost consciousness.
In truth, his Godhead had already shattered, and his sea of consciousness was in chaos.
Thump …
The purple-haired old man's body fell to the ground powerlessly, and he no longer made a sound.
Ji Tianxing pressed his palm on the old man's head and circulated his energy to absorb more than a dozen Godhead Fragments.
He put away the Godhead Fragments, quietly left the secret room, and continued to rush to the next mountain peak.
However, the two guards outside the door of the secret room frowned as they vaguely sensed something unusual.
"Something seemed to have happened just now?"
"I heard a little too. I thought I was hallucinating."
"There was a fluctuation of divine power in the secret room. It disappeared in a flash, and it seemed to be very powerful."
"Could it be that the Grand Elder is trying to break through a bottleneck?"
"I don't know. Should we knock on the door and ask?"
"It's not good to disturb the Grand Elder at this time, right?"
"But I still feel that something is wrong. What if there is something wrong?"
"Then … should we try?"
The two guards outside the secret room discussed for a while, and then they mustered up the courage to knock on the door and ask the Grand Elder in the secret room if something was wrong.
The result was obvious. The two of them knocked on the door several times, but there was no response from the secret room.
The two of them found it increasingly strange and began to worry.
However, the secret room was protected by a defensive divine array, so the two of them could not open it.
The two of them discussed for a while more before deciding that one of them would report this matter to the Vice Patriarch and have him make the decision.
As for Patriarch Lu Wu, he was currently in a meeting to discuss important military matters. The two of them did not dare to disturb him.
… …
Ji Tianxing searched through three mountains in a row, but he discovered that there were only Divine Lord guards and experts in the palaces and courtyards. There were no God Kings.
According to the information he knew, there were five God Kings living in these three mountains.
Three of them were Elders of the Luwu Race and two were Deacons.
Even though some of the Elders and Deacons had already left Violetcloud Grotto to lead troops on the front lines, these three mountains should not be empty.
But there was no reason for these three mountains to be empty.
He vaguely sensed that these Elders and Deacons had either been summoned by Patriarch Lu Wu for a meeting.
Or his assassination attempt had been exposed and these people were on guard.
"I hope that they've only been summoned for a meeting and haven't noticed anything strange.
At the very least, I can kill a few more Elders and Protectors before I'm exposed. "
With this thought in mind, Ji Tianxing continued to rush to the other mountains and palaces.
However, when he snuck into two more mountains, he found nothing.
Confused, he took the risk of being discovered by Patriarch Lu Wu and used his Divine Sense to investigate the situation in Violetcloud Divine Hall.
The result was just as he expected. Ten-some God Kings were currently in Violetcloud Divine Hall, discussing important military matters.
There were five Elders and two Protectors, as well as Region Lord Kong Wen and the others, who were all present in the main hall.
The white-haired elder seated on the throne at the head was none other than Patriarch Lu Wu.
