Unknowingly, a day had passed.
The people of Liantian City were still immersed in shock and were still discussing the execution of the City Lord, Qin Zheng.
The decree issued by the Imperial Court not only destroyed more than a dozen factions and families, but also made the people of the city remember the name 'Ji Tianxing'.
At the same time, the ordinary people who didn't know much about the 'Imperial Prince' finally understood how powerful and noble the Imperial Prince was.
Although Liantian City was in turmoil and all kinds of rumors were flying everywhere.
But under the suppression of the Imperial Court, there was no chaos in the city.
Those big forces who were eager to take advantage of the situation also quieted down and obediently tucked their tails between their legs.
Late at night, on a mountain outside Liantian City.
At the top of the mountain where spiritual energy was abundant, there was a luxurious and magnificent manor that occupied a large area.
Inside the manor, in a heavily guarded secret room, two people were whispering to each other.
One of them was tall and strong, wearing a golden robe and a purple cloak, exuding a powerful and noble aura.
He wore a crystal mask, only revealing a pair of sword-like eyebrows and red phoenix eyes.
His back was facing the door of the secret room, staring at a star map on the wall.
Not far behind him stood a young man in a green robe with an extraordinary temperament.
This man had a resolute and handsome face, and he was Duanmu Yulong.
He stared at the back of the golden-robed man and said in a low voice, "My Lord, one of the men I sent to assassinate Ji Tianxing was injured and killed by him.
After the mission failed, Ji Tianxing became more cautious.
I didn't send any more men in the past few days, in case he finds out that it was me.
My plan is to wait for him to let down his guard for a while, and then I'll send the strongest assassins from Tianyuan to carry out the mission.
At that time, we'll be able to kill him in one blow and completely eradicate him! "
The Lord was still staring at the star map on the wall. His aura was cold and indifferent, and there was no change in his expression.
He said in a strange voice that was hard to distinguish between a man and a woman, "Ji Tianxing's growth is too fast, and we've underestimated him.
After tonight, it's inconvenient for me to show up, so your plan can be canceled.
Sending assassins to assassinate him is not a foolproof plan. Once the operation fails, your identity will be exposed.
That idiot Qin Zheng is an example. Don't tell me you still don't understand? "
Duanmu Yulong frowned and asked in a solemn tone: "Then what do you mean?"
The High Lord said in a low voice, "There's no need to send assassins to assassinate him anymore. Just focus on preparing for next month's competition for the position of Territorial Lord.
With your strength, you'll definitely be able to kill him in a duel on the arena.
I have already made the arrangements. When the time comes, not only will you have to kill Ji Tianxing openly, but you will also have to seize the position of Heavenly Stellar Region Lord!
This matter is extremely important to me. You must complete this task, otherwise … "
The High Lord did not finish his sentence.
However, his cold and imposing voice still caused Duanmu Yulong's body to tremble. A trace of fear flashed through his eyes.
Duanmu Yulong only weighed the pros and cons for a moment before saying in a firm and resolute tone, "Lord, please rest assured. If I am unable to complete the mission, I will definitely commit suicide in front of you as an apology!"
"Very good! You are indeed worthy of being my right-hand man. "The High Lord said in a sonorous tone. It was clear that he was very satisfied with his attitude and determination.
Duanmu Yulong was very clear in his heart that he had made the right bet by committing suicide.
If he was unable to complete the mission given by the High Lord, he would have to commit suicide as an apology.
However, if he completed the mission, he would be the High Lord's number one hero. He would become the High Lord's right-hand man.
In the future, after the High Lord's great ambition was achieved, he would become one of the most respected experts of the human race. The Duanmu Family would once again enjoy a thousand years of glory!
Thinking of this, Duanmu Yulong's mood was somewhat excited and expectant.
He had already made up his mind. In the next twenty days, he would work hard to increase his strength.
No matter what, he would complete the mission. He would kill Ji Tianxing and seize the position of Heavenly Stellar Region Lord!
… …
Cloud Mist Courtyard, Pine Wave Hut.
Ji Tianxing cultivated in the secret chamber for a whole day, and finally, he recovered his strength and vitality.
He ended his cultivation but did not leave the secret room.
He took out the Star Divine Gold from his spatial ring and carefully examined it in his palm.
This fist-sized oval-shaped crystal had a bumpy surface and reflected a dark golden brilliance.
Although it was only the size of a fist, its weight was comparable to a ten-thousand-kilogram boulder. It was very shocking.
Only a Sky Origin Stage expert like Ji Tianxing could hold it in his palm.
If it were an ordinary Origin Core Stage expert, even if he could hold it in his palm, he would not be able to hold it for too long.
Ji Tianxing frowned and sized up the Star Divine Gold with his sharp eyes. He muttered to himself in a low voice, "Qin Zheng said that this Star Divine Gold can activate a mysterious gravitational force. What's going on?"
Puzzled, he activated a trace of True Essence and injected it into the Star Divine Gold.
Suddenly, the Star Divine Gold released a dazzling dark golden brilliance. It was like a lamp that lit up half of the secret room.
Ji Tianxing also suddenly felt that the Star Divine Gold's weight had doubled, reaching twenty thousand kilograms!
Fortunately, he was mentally prepared and held the Star Divine Gold with both hands.
If he was caught off guard, he was afraid that his wrist and finger bones would be crushed by the sudden increase in weight.
"I injected a trace of True Essence and the Star Divine Gold's weight doubled. Could this be the mysterious gravitational force that Qin Zheng mentioned?"
Ji Tianxing muttered doubtfully and injected another trace of True Essence into the Star Divine Gold.
This time, the amount of True Essence he injected was twice as much as before.
Suddenly, the Star Divine Gold lit up with an even more dazzling golden light, illuminating the entire secret room.
Ji Tianxing's hands suddenly sank. His knuckles and palms turned pale and bloodless. His bones also made a slight cracking sound.
Obviously, the Star Divine Gold's weight had doubled again, reaching thirty thousand kilograms!
Such a terrifying weight was not something that the hands of an ordinary Sky Origin Stage expert could bear.
Even though Ji Tianxing had cultivated the Way of the Sword and his body was stronger than that of an ordinary Sky Origin Stage expert, he could not bear it.
Moreover, he could feel that the Star Divine Gold was releasing a formless force that enveloped the entire secret room.
The air in the secret room also rippled and twisted silently. It was as if it was compressed and deformed by that formless force.
Ji Tianxing hurriedly withdrew his True Essence, causing the Star Divine Gold's brilliance to dim. Its weight also quickly returned to normal.
He stared at the Star Divine Gold and thought to himself, "Injecting True Essence into it can increase its weight exponentially. This Star Divine Gold is indeed amazing.
But what's the use of increasing its weight? How can I use it to increase my strength? "
At this moment, the voice of the Burial Of Heaven sounded in his mind. "Tianxing, the change of gravity is only one of the many effects of the Star Divine Gold.
If you use it to forge weapons, you will have a powerful combat strength and be invincible.
