Chapter 2596 Successor to Star Lord?
After hearing Zixiao Tianzun's words, Ji Tianxing suddenly realized.
It turned out that before Zixiao Tianzun, there was the previous Zixiao Tianzun.
It was a strong man from ancient times who discovered this secret place in the deepest part of Zixiao star and transformed it into Zixiao Cave.
The Zixiao Shrine that Ji Tianxing was in was also built by the previous Zixiao Tianzun.
"Before I entered the Requiem Hall just now, I deciphered a large formation at the level of a god.
Since the Zixiao Shrine was built by the former Zixiao Tianzun, then... the big formation was also arranged by him?
In other words, the former Zixiao Tianzun is a strong man in the realm of gods? "
Ji Tianxing stared at the statue and asked.
The remnant soul of Zixiao Tianzun replied: "That's right! The previous Tianzun is indeed a god.
In Zixiao Cave, he discovered a special kind of sacred stone, which is of great benefit to the gods in cultivating their souls.
After years of research, he used that special sacred stone to successfully create several stone sculptures, which were stored in the shrine.
He peeled off a wisp of remnant soul from his divine soul and sealed it in the stone carving.
In this way, the stone sculpture became his appearance and could preserve the remnant soul.
It's a pity that the remnant soul has consciousness, but cannot be reborn.
In ancient times, when the former Zixiao Tianzun fell in the war, he was truly fallen.
The same is true for the old man, even if he keeps a remnant soul, he can only explain some funeral affairs to you, and it is impossible to be reborn.
As for what happened outside, there is a special connection between Jin Peng and the old man, so the old man naturally knows what happened. "
Hearing this, Ji Tianxing understood the reason, and nodded involuntarily.
"That's how it is! The previous Zixiao Tianzun is indeed worthy of being a strong god, which is very interesting.
However, I still have one question. "
The remnant soul of Zixiao Tianzun asked quickly: "What question? As long as the old man knows, I will definitely answer it."
Ji Tianxing asked in a calm tone: "The previous Zixiao Tianzun was a strong man in the God Realm, why do you only have the strength in the Real God Realm?
It stands to reason that the divine power in Zixiao Cave is extremely abundant, and if you have lived and practiced here for tens of thousands of years, you should have broken through to the realm of the gods long ago.
How is this going? "
The remnant soul of Zixiao Tianzun explained in a calm tone: "Actually, this question of yours has always troubled the old man.
When the old man was in charge of Zixiaoxing and became the new Tianzun, he was already at the ninth level of the Martial God Realm.
After practicing here for three hundred years, the old man successfully broke through to the Real God Realm.
After 20,000 years, the old man will reach the ninth level of the True God Realm.
However, in the 40,000 years since then, the old man has remained at the Ninth Layer of the True God, making almost no progress. "
According to the time of the outside world, Zixiao Tianzun has only been the star master for 30,000 years.
But the speed of time in Zixiao Cave is twice as fast as that of the outside world.
Therefore, he lived in Zixiao Cave for nearly 60,000 years.
Ji Tianxing nodded slightly, and asked: "For 40,000 years, you have been stuck in the Ninth Layer of the True God, and you never thought about investigating the reason?"
The remnant soul of Zixiao Tianzun quickly replied: "Of course I have investigated it, even the old man spent more than 10,000 years!
At first, the old man thought that his qualifications were not enough, but it turned out that he was not.
Later, the old man thought it was a problem of practicing exercises.
Therefore, the old man searched the entire Zixiao star field and found several god-level kung fu techniques handed down from ancient times.
But it is useless for the old man to cultivate the god-level skills, and he still cannot break through the gods.
Later, the old man left the Zixiao Starfield and traveled in the void.
For eight thousand years, the old man has traveled through five star regions and met countless warrior gods and many true gods.
But the old man discovered that not only the Zixiao star field, but even other star fields do not have a god!
Moreover, the star master of a star field is also facing the same problem.
Like the old man, he also reached the ninth level of the True God Realm, but he was still unable to break through the Heavenly God Realm. "
Hearing this, Ji Tianxing vaguely guessed something, and asked: "Then what happened later, how did the star master solve it?"
The remnant soul of Zixiao Tianzun said with a wry smile: "That Star Lord has been waiting for three thousand years, but he really didn't want to wait any longer, so he simply triggered the laws of heaven and earth and ascended to the God Realm."
"Oh?" Ji Tianxing raised his brows, and said thoughtfully: "Then you mean that your inability to break through the gods has nothing to do with aptitude and skills?
Could it be that the limit of the mortal world is the true god Jiuzhong?
In the mortal world, it is never possible to reach the realm of gods? "
"That's right." The remnant soul of Zixiao Tianzun said firmly: "Only this answer can explain it.
It's not that I can't do it, it's because the rules of heaven don't allow it! "
Ji Tianxing frowned, and asked suspiciously: "But in the ancient times, there were not only gods in the mortal world, but also gods and gods!
How do you explain this? "
"What? There have been gods, gods, and gods in the mortal world?" Zixiao Tianzun's remnant soul was suddenly full of surprise, and his tone was full of disbelief.
"Of course." Ji Tianxing said in a firm tone: "The world I live in has appeared in ancient times."
"This..." Zixiao Tianzun's remnant soul suddenly became speechless.
After a long silence, he said solemnly: "Your Excellency, the world you live in may not be simple.
Logically speaking, this is absolutely impossible. "
Ji Tianxing was also silent, lost in memory.
He recalled the words that old man Shenxu had said to him before his death.
Naturally, he also believed what Zixiao Tianzun said.
The world of five elements is definitely not an ordinary world of mortals!
Ji Tianxing made up his mind, after returning to the Five Elements World, he must investigate carefully, hoping to solve the mystery.
However, it is not suitable to discuss this matter with Zixiao Tianzun now.
He hurriedly changed the subject and asked, "Since you can't break through to the god realm if you stay in the mortal world, why do you still want to stay?
Why not directly ascend to the God Realm like that star master? "
The remnant soul of Zixiao Tianzun replied: "If you can only break through the heavenly god realm by ascending to the god realm, then the old man would rather stay here and guard Zixiao star forever.
After all, the old man and Jinpeng have an agreement to live and die together.
Even if you want to ascend to the God Realm, the old man has to wait for it to accompany you.
It's a pity that before it has grown to the ninth level of the true god, the tengu-killing thief came to kill it... Sigh! "
At the end, Zixiao Tianzun sighed helplessly.
Ji Tianxing was a little moved.
He admired the deep friendship between Zixiao Tianzun and Jinpeng.
He also finally understood, no wonder Jin Penghan was not afraid of death, and died with Marshal Zhengnan without hesitation.
It turned out that it was to avenge an old friend!
Just as Ji Tianxing was contemplating, Zixiao Tianzun's remnant soul said again: "Okay, I don't have much time, it's time to get down to business.
Your Excellency saved Zixiaoxing. On behalf of the 40 billion people, I would like to express my most sincere thanks to you.
I hope that your Excellency can enter Zixiao Cave, take over the position of Zixiao Tianzun, and continue to guard Zixiao Star.
As a thank you gift, this old man will give you a magic pill and a rule, please accept it! "
