The Lord of Jadefall had always thought that the experts of the two temples not only looked down on it, but also rejected it.
Because it had followed them all the way and expressed its intention to get a share of the loot, the two temples would definitely be on guard.
But it hadn't expected the second hallmaster of Taiyu God Emperor to take the initiative to find it.
"If I remember correctly, you should be the Lord of Jadefall, correct?"
The second hallmaster was dressed in a purple robe and had a white beard. He stood in the dark sky and stared at the Lord of Jadefall a hundred miles away.
The Lord of Jadefall nodded and sized up the second hallmaster. "You are the second hallmaster. We met once more six thousand years ago."
It was located in an unknown land between the territories of the Pantheon of Immortality and the Taiyu Shrine.
Although the three factions usually stayed out of each other's way, there would always be friction and interaction when they got close. It was reasonable for them to know each other.
The second hallmaster thought back and confirmed that the Lord of Jadefall was telling the truth. He nodded. "Lord of Jadefall, since you know who I am, you should be able to guess why I'm here, right?"
The Lord of Jadefall naturally knew what the second hallmaster wanted to do, but it wouldn't say it out loud.
The second hallmaster didn't want to play riddles with it and went straight to the point. "I'm sure you know that our two temples have joined forces and formed an alliance to deal with the Kenshin.
Kenshin alone isn't enough for us to form an alliance, nor do we need to mobilize so many people.
However, Kenshin has roped in several sea beast lords and will have a large number of elite sea beasts to protect him.
So … if you participate in this operation alone, you have no chance of winning. You might even lose your life.
You know what I mean, right? "
The Lord of Jadefall naturally understood, but played dumb. "So the second hallmaster is here to make me withdraw?"
The second hallmaster smiled playfully. "If that's what you think, then it's not wrong.
However, I believe that you've chased me all the way here, so how can you give up?
I'll give you two choices. Either you leave now and stay away from this war.
If you're not satisfied, then join us and form an alliance with us. We'll work together against the Kenshin and the Sea Beast Lord. "
After that, the second palace master didn't say anything else. He stared at the Lord of Sky, waiting for it to make a decision.
Jadefall sneered inwardly, but he didn't let it show on his face. He calmly asked, "The two Shrines are so powerful, how could they possibly look at me?
If you want me to work for you, you should at least show some sincerity, right? "
The Second Palace Master frowned and said sullenly, "Listen carefully. It is an alliance and cooperation, not taking you in as a subordinate.
Therefore, you only have two choices. There's no sincerity or conditions. "
"Since that's the case, I'll have to think about it for a while. I can't give you an answer for the time being. You can go back now."
The second palace master's frown deepened. His face was gloomy as he said coldly, "Overlord of Jadefall, if you make the right choice, we can tolerate you.
But if you want to wait and see, then don't blame us for not being polite.
After all, we won't allow any uncertain factors to exist near the battlefield. "
These two sentences were very straightforward. The gist of it was that if Jadefall didn't leave and didn't form an alliance, then the two Shrines would have to eliminate it before the war began.
Jadefall's expression turned grave. He was wary of the second palace master. "I already knew that you have no sincerity at all. Then what's the point of talking about cooperation and alliance?
If you want to eliminate me before the war, then it's as easy as turning over your hand.
However, I'm still a middle level God Emperor. How can I be so easily killed?
If you want to kill me, then you have to pay a price.
The war is imminent. If you lose one or two palace masters, then it might affect the final outcome. Hahahaha! "
Jadefall naturally didn't dare to challenge the two Shrines. If it had a choice, it wouldn't want to fall out with them.
But now that things had developed to this point, it was clear that it couldn't back down.
Otherwise, even if it formed an alliance with the two Shrines, it would only be reduced to cannon fodder.
As expected, the second palace master frowned but didn't say anything else.
He went silent for a moment before suppressing the flames of rage in his heart, and then he said in a low voice, "I'll give you 10 days at most to consider. If you still don't make a decision after 10 days, then it won't just be me who'll come."
With that, the second palace master flicked his sleeves and left, soon disappearing into the dark sky.
Suzerain Jadefall watched Yang Qi disappear into the distance. After a long moment passed, a cold smile appeared on his face. "You want me to throw my life away for you," he murmured to himself. "And now you're acting all high and mighty, taking pity on me? What a hypocrite!
With that, it also turned and flew into the distance.
Since the two Shrines' experts were so aggressive and it didn't want to be used, it could only stay away.
It believed that the two Shrines wouldn't send experts to hunt it down.
That would not only waste time, but also weaken their forces.
At the edge of the Evernight Sea, they could be attacked by the sea beast army at any time. How could they dare to split up?
...
Time passed quietly.
Unknowingly, another month had passed.
Ji Tianxing had been cultivating in seclusion in the Xuan Bing and Zi Dian caves for six years.
Fortunately, his seventh Daoist Rhyme had finally condensed its foundation and embryonic form.
Although he was still one step away from the upper level of the God Emperor, he only needed to condense the seventh Daoist Rhyme.
But even this one step would require at least a hundred years, and at most a few hundred years of meditation and hard work.
Ji Tianxing was also worried that things would change if he delayed too long.
The more time the two Shrines had to prepare, the more prepared they would be, and the lower his chances of success would be.
Most importantly, he had already deeply realized that continuing to comprehend the Heaven Punishing Divine Art in seclusion would not allow him to make much progress.
Condensing the seventh Daoist Rhyme required more than just cultivating in seclusion. The most important thing was opportunity and experience.
Therefore, he decided to end his seclusion.
On the second day after coming out, he summoned the six Sea Beast Lords in the Great Conference Hall and discussed the plan and countermeasures with them.
The six Sea Beast Lords had already done the preparatory work. They only needed to discuss some details with him before the army could set off.
On the third day, Ji Tianxing left the cave abode under the escort of the six Sea Beast Lords and the twenty thousand elite sea beast army. They rushed to the Evernight Sea in the north.
At the same time, at the edge of the Evernight Sea, the experts of the two Shrines also welcomed their allies.
