When the three thousand Divine Kings were concentrating on cultivating and recuperating, Ji Tianxing quietly left his residence.
The others were here to participate in the competition or carry out missions to make a name for themselves and gain the favor of the temple.
However, he was here to scout for information and investigate for clues.
Previously, there were more than seven thousand Divine Kings in the secret realm. There were too many eyes and ears.
The defense of the five giant peaks had also increased by a few times. They were heavily guarded to prevent any accidents from happening.
Now that the elite competition had ended, the three thousand elite Divine Kings were cultivating and healing in their residences. The rest of the people had also left.
All the peaks were quiet. The defense of the five giant peaks was also lifted and returned to normal.
Ji Tianxing finally had a chance. After leaving his residence quietly, he began to explore and investigate the five giant peaks.
Before this, he had already observed the five giant peaks many times and investigated for a few days.
He also had a sufficient understanding of the formation layout of the five giant peaks, as well as the situation of the patrols and guards.
Even so, he still had to act cautiously, just in case.
After all, the five Hall Masters of Shang Qing Temple were all in the secret realm, overseeing their respective giant peaks.
Ji Tianxing sneaked into the giant peaks to scout for information. He was moving under the eyes of the five Hall Masters. If he was not careful, there was a risk of being exposed.
After much consideration, he decided to investigate the giant peaks of the Fourth and Fifth Hall Masters.
After all, he had seen the Fourth and Fifth Hall Masters with his own eyes. He knew the abilities of the two Hall Masters.
One of them was a God Emperor Beginner who had condensed three Daoist Rhymes. The other was a God Emperor Intermediate who had condensed four Daoist Rhymes.
In comparison, the two Hall Masters were weaker. The probability of discovering him was not high.
Ji Tianxing first sneaked into the giant peak where the Fifth Hall Master was overseeing.
The elite competition was held there previously. He took the opportunity of the competition to study all the formations and defenses on the mountain peak.
With confidence, he easily broke through the defenses and sneaked into the giant peak.
He remained invisible and hid his aura as he moved around the giant peak.
If it was another occasion, perhaps he would capture a guard commander and interrogate him with torture, or even directly refine his soul memories to obtain the information he wanted.
However, he couldn't do it now. What if he assassinated a guard commander?
Do I have to possess him?
Thus, he continued to move around the giant peak in his place.
In that case, he would have to give up his identity as Su Juechen.
He had already attracted the attention of the vice hall master, two elders, and many Godkings.
If Su Juechen suddenly disappeared, it would definitely arouse suspicion.
So, Ji Tianxing could only wander around the mountain peak?
They secretly observed and monitored those commander-level characters.
After three days of lurking and observation?
Based on the conversation between the Guard Commanders, he could tell that the Guard Commanders were in charge.
He received some news.
However?
Were those pieces of news related to the construction of the sixth mountain and the Divine Palace?
There wasn't much meaning to it anymore.
Until the fourth day?
Three elders had come to the peak of the giant mountain to meet the Fifth Palace Master?
They were discussing some important matters.
Ji Tianxing pondered for a moment.
Finally made up his mind?
He secretly followed the three elders and sneaked into the depths of the Divine Palace to eavesdrop on their conversation with the Fifth Palace Master.
The Fifth Palace Master met the three elders in the study deep in the Divine Palace.
Ji Tianxing hid outside the study and did not alert the many guards around him. He secretly listened to the conversation between the Fifth Palace Master and the three elders.
Originally, he was worried that the Fifth Palace Master might notice something was wrong.
However, this was the Shang Qing Mystery Territory, and the Fifth Palace Master had lived in for more than twenty thousand years.
The Fifth Palace Master was not vigilant at all. He did not expect someone to be so bold as to eavesdrop on his conversation with the three elders.
Therefore, the Fifth Palace Master did not notice anything unusual even though Ji Tianxing eavesdropped in the study for four hours.
As for the guards patrolling and standing guard around the study in the depths of the Divine Palace, they were all High-Level Godkings. It was even more impossible for them to notice Ji Tianxing.
The three elders had come to look for the Fifth Palace Master to discuss the upcoming mission … which was also that earth-shattering matter.
"Fifth Palace Master, we have received the news.
The First Palace Master said that he will personally lead the team. The Third Palace Master, the Fourth Palace Master, and you will follow. They will lead three thousand elite Godkings to the Chaos Sea. "
"The Second Palace Master and eight elders will stay in the Shang Qing Mystery Territory. The other eight elders will follow the army to carry out the mission."
"Fifth Palace Master, you also know that we have been in the Divine Palace for tens of thousands of years. We have always been hardworking and dedicated.
Our loyalty to the Divine Palace can be witnessed by the heavens and the earth. "
"With our talent and qualifications, the First Palace Master has long asserted that we can only be Peak Godkings in our lives.
Going to the Chaos Sea is our last chance in life.
I hope that the Fifth Palace Master can help us persuade the First Palace Master to let us follow the army. "
Obviously, the three elders came to the Fifth Palace Master for help.
They wanted the Fifth Palace Master to plead with the First Palace Master to bring them to the Chaos Sea.
Ji Tianxing remembered their words in his heart, especially the three words' Chaos Sea ', which aroused his greatest curiosity and importance.
"The First Palace Master is personally leading the team, leaving only the Second Palace Master to guard the Shang Qing Mystery Territory.
The four Palace Masters are leading the eight elders and three thousand elite Godkings to the Chaos Sea to carry out an earth-shattering mission? "
Connecting the mysterious mission and the elite selection competition, Ji Tianxing understood the ins and outs of the matter. He felt that this matter was very strange.
What kind of place was the Chaos Sea?
Why did the Shang Qing Temple place so much importance on it? Why did they send all their elite forces to the Chaos Sea?
According to the three elders, they would stop at Peak Godkings in their lives. Only by going to the Chaos Sea would they have a chance to break through to the God Emperor Realm?
Ji Tianxing listened to the conversation between the Fifth Palace Master and the three elders. His mind was working quickly to analyze and guess the truth.
At this moment, the Fifth Palace Master continued, "The three of you are all my seniors, even my elders.
Before I broke through to the God Emperor Realm, all of you gave me some help and care.
Don't worry, I'll never forget the help and affection you've given me.
But since you came to find me, it means that you have already received the news and know which eight elders will follow the army.
Obviously, the First Palace Master has already made a decision.
And the three of you are among the eight people left to guard the Shang Qing Mystery Territory. "
The three elders were silent. They could not refute him.
The Fifth Palace Master sighed and continued, "Sigh … I want to help you, but my words carry little weight.
Among the five Palace Masters, I am the youngest and ranked the last. I do not have much authority.
Especially, the First Palace Master did not let us discuss this matter and made a decision directly.
I can be where I am today all because of the First Palace Master's nurturing and guidance.
Since he has already made a decision, how can I object?
I can only promise you that if the First Palace Master allows us to discuss, then I will definitely recommend you. How about that? "
