Chapter 929: Unsealing (Seeking Monthly Votes)
In a restaurant on the star island of the Tongxuan War Zone, Xu Jin was drinking and chatting with Ninth-Tribulation True Person Deng Kui, a friend introduced by Old Hei before.
The twenty jars of fine wine from the East Profound Star Boundary sent out casually were not worth mentioning in value, but the intention was there.
With intention, and value for each other, the relationship was naturally very good.
This was also the helplessness of cultivators after their cultivation status reached a certain level.
Except for the friendship fought out side by side with people like Seeing Guan Laohei, others all valued value.
It was very difficult to get friends who truly confided in each other!
Ninth-Tribulation True Person Deng Kui, who was in front of him, took a fancy to Xu Jin's potential and future value, while Xu Jin took a fancy to the convenience in information that this person could bring him, plus Seeing Guan Laohei as a link, and this relationship became closer.
Deng Kui had lived in the center of the Tongxuan War Zone for a long time and naturally knew information that other star island garrison commanders could not compare with.
For example, the Inspection Heavenly Official Hua Tu of the Great Luo Ancestral Court was stationed in the Tongxuan War Zone, although he did not intend to intervene in the War Zone military affairs, he already had a certain influence.
Another example was the rumor that the East Profound Emperor was going to inspect the Star Ruins Tongxuan War Zone.
Another example was the three Emperors who came to support from the Star River present world, all of whom took over the position of garrison commander.
There were three other Emperors who had been in the Star Ruins who also served as star island garrison commanders.
Currently, between two to three star islands, there was at least one Emperor stationed.
Emperor Kongyuan's inspection of each star island had recently begun to strengthen, and he had personally taken action to punish four True Persons who violated military law.
The recent Tongxuan War Zone could be called turbulent.
Originating from the Star Calamity, but not stopping at the Star Calamity!
Regarding this, Deng Kui only spoke of information but did not make any comments, still very cautious.
But no matter how cautious, he was still led into the ditch by Xu Jin intentionally or unintentionally, or rather, led into Xu Jin's circle of purpose.
They chatted about Emperor Kongyuan's past and his disciples.
Xu Jin was no longer the rookie who had just come out of the cottage back then.
Is Emperor Kongyuan not good?
Actually, he was very good to him!
It could be called responsive to every request, but there were two points that made Xu Jin feel like a thorn in his throat, very uncomfortable.
The first is that the master-disciple identity cannot be leaked in the slightest; like today when Xu Jin arrived at the War Zone star island, he could only send a starlight message to greet him, although the reason was very acceptable, but being uncomfortable was being uncomfortable.
Sometimes, following one's heart is also very important.
The second is that Emperor Kongyuan only cared about the cultivation progress of Xu Jin's Abyss Domain divine ability; he didn't pay attention to other aspects, and didn't even ask about Xu Jin's plan to attain the True Person path.
This made Xu Jin feel uncomfortable; of course, it was also possible that Emperor Kongyuan was really busy.
After all, it was the Star Calamity, and it was a time of turbulent undercurrents.
Xu Jin was also a person who fought against the Emperor and seized imperial power back then; just listening to what others said, Xu Jin saw the problem: the current Emperor Kongyuan was above ten thousand people under one person.
On the surface, there was the East Profound Emperor above him, but in the Star Ruins, there was no difference from a King.
If the East Profound Emperor were an Emperor and had such a Grand Marshal who unified a boundary under his hand, what would he think?
It just so happened that his strength was also very strong, and his battle record was very terrifying!
A hundred years ago, he killed three Emperors alone!
So what about now?
If Xu Jin were the East Profound Emperor, I'm afraid he would also find it difficult to handle.
However, these general trends and major events were ultimately not something Xu Jin could change much; what Xu Jin thought about was himself or his own one-third of an acre of land.
"The Commander-in-Chief's disciple, ah, I haven't seen the first one; it is said that he fought an Emperor, but the second one, Floating Shadow True Person, I have not only seen, but also fought side by side with." Deng Kui revealed a reminiscent expression.
"Oh, was he very strong?"
"I was Eighth-Tribulation back then, and Floating Shadow True Person was Sixth-Tribulation back then; fighting with him, I was only qualified to be his assistant. He killed Eighth-Tribulation like cutting vegetables, but later, it was a pity..."
"Pity? What do you mean?"
"Just the literal meaning! According to the investigation, he was sneak-attacked by alien experts and died in battle," Deng Kui said.
"Such a strong person, wouldn't it take alien Emperor experts to sneak attack and kill him?" Xu Jin asked suspiciously.
"At least two Ninth-Tribulation, and they must both be of the breakthrough kind, or even Emperors; otherwise, Floating Shadow True Person wouldn't have failed to support for even a few breaths, and wouldn't even have sent out a request for help message."
In Xu Jin's suspicious gaze, Deng Kui added, "Floating Shadow True Person was the Commander-in-Chief's disciple; as long as he sent out a request for help message, with the Commander-in-Chief's cultivation, he would definitely arrive within a few breaths!"
After finishing, Deng Kui suddenly sighed. "To tell the truth, fighting with Floating Shadow True Person, that feeling is the same as fighting side by side with Old Hei and you; it can be called invincible in battle!"
"If Floating Shadow True Person hadn't fallen, I'm afraid I would have already attained the Emperor path by now!"
Once Xu Jin heard this, he immediately understood a few points.
Deng Kui fought with Floating Shadow True Person; it seems the harvest was great.
"Old Kui, having said that, Floating Shadow True Person had great battle merits; then he should have left a family behind, right?" Xu Jin asked.
"Yes! Back then, Floating Shadow True Person used military merits to request a True Person title; the True Person title was Floating Shadow, also known as Floating Shadow King!"
"He also requested a medium-sized world in the present world as a fief to serve as a place for family inheritance."
"But the Emperor had just approved the title, and the person was gone."
"Later, the Commander-in-Chief felt sorry for his disciple, and also pitied that no one in his disciple's clan could sit in the medium-sized world, so he applied to the Emperor to change his fief to the Tongxuan War Zone."
While speaking, Deng Kui pointed a direction to Xu Jin. "In the rear of our Tongxuan War Zone, there is a Floating Shadow Star Island with a size comparable to a medium-sized world; it was the fief of the former Floating Shadow True Person, and it is the clan land of the Floating Shadow Lu family, occupying one-third of the size."
"Oh, his son also broke through to Tianyang Xingjun a few years ago; it is said that his spatial talent is outstanding, and he still specializes in spatial Law Dao, and the Commander-in-Chief has also visited twice!"
Hearing this, Xu Jin silently remembered it.
Floating Shadow Star Island, he had to make a trip when he had time.
For some reason, Xu Jin was becoming more and more interested in the death of Emperor Kongyuan's second disciple, Floating Shadow True Person.
Of course, there was also a very direct reason for this interest.
As long as Xu Jin started to ponder this aspect of the problem and activated the Ming Yuan Qian Chu divine ability, his Tiger Response Divine Whip would slightly flash with starlight, not knowing what it meant.
November 15th, noon, Xu Jin had long since arrived in front of the Wordless Heavenly Stele Hall to wait; there was still an hour left before it was his turn.
The True Person on duty at the Wordless Heavenly Stele Hall saw Xu Jin again and greeted him extremely enthusiastically, and even invited Xu Jin to the side hall to sit and wait.
A Tenth-Tribulation Tianyang Xingjun, who had obtained two extraordinary merits in the short span of two months, and they were the kind of extraordinary merits earned by real military merits; if he didn't flatter him, he would be a fool.
Such an existence was either an evildoer or someone with a heaven-reaching background, and would soon rise to the blue clouds.
He does not seek to be promoted, only to catch a bit of good luck, or perhaps be carried along by the rising momentum of the elite, to gain a tiny bit of fortune—that might just be his great opportunity.
After politely thanking him, Xu Jin sat cross-legged there and pondered.
