The answer of the white-robed old man made Ji Tianxing frown.
"you know me?"
The white-robed old man shook his head slightly and said with a smile: "Of course I don't know each other. Today is the first time the old man has seen you.
However, half a month ago, the guardian greeted the old man and mentioned your name and deeds. "
Ji Tianxing was puzzled, and asked: "Dare to ask you who?"
The white-robed old man stroked his beard, and said kindly: "The old man's surname is Hong and his name is Chengtian. He was appointed by the **** to guard the Haotian Tower.
Now that the old man is very old, he resigns and stays in this Tiansheng Palace to support his life. "
Hong Chengtian's tone is calm and indifferent, and his expression is quite free and easy.
Only by his demeanor and appearance, he can see his open-mindedness.
But when Ji Tianxing heard his words, his face changed slightly, and a look of surprise flashed in his eyes.
"Hong Chengtian? You were the last great guardian, and now you are in charge of the third guardian of Tiansheng Palace?"
Hong Chengtian also looked at him in surprise, and said with a light smile: "You kid, you know the old man's past? Didn't Lin Daoyi tell you?"
Ji Tianxing shook his head, and explained: "Lin Shenshi never mentioned your deeds. I saw it in the book collection of Shenshuge."
Before he was in the Shenshu Pavilion, in order to quickly understand the situation of Shenwu Continent, he read more than 300,000 books.
Coincidentally, there are dozens of books that mention Hong Chengtian.
Thousands of years ago, Hong Chengtian was also a powerful martial artist in the world.
He is highly regarded by the God Lord Taihao, and is appointed to guard the great guardian of the Haotian Tower.
However, hundreds of years ago, Hong Chengtian mysteriously disappeared for ten years.
When he reappeared, he returned to the Haotian Tower with severe injuries and was dying, almost killed.
Although he did not die, he survived by chance.
But his strength could not be recovered, and the realm of strength continued to fall.
Since then, he has been living in seclusion on Fengshen Mountain for decades, and he has never been seen.
Decades later, the three guardians at that time broke through the martial sacred realm, and was rewarded by the **** master Taihao, and was named the great guardian guarding the Haotian Tower.
So Hong Chengtian and Sanhu Fa changed their identities.
The three guardians of the past have become the current great guardians, in charge of the entire Fengshen Mountain.
And Hong Chengtian, the great protector of the year, has become the current three protector and has been living in seclusion in the Tiansheng Palace.
More than a month ago, Ji Tianxing saw these deeds in the book and paid special attention to it, so he still remembers it still.
Hong Chengtian was right in front of him at this moment. He looked carefully at it and saw the clue.
Although on the surface, Hong Chengtian is full of energy and complexion.
But in fact, his primordial spirit is lacking, his breath is vague and weak, and he is obviously seriously injured. He has not healed yet.
Even his realm of strength fell from the Martial Saint realm to the Dujie realm.
Ji Tianxing faintly felt that Hong Chengtian's realm of strength might be equivalent to that of the Second Protector, between the seventh and eighth layers of the Tribulation Realm.
At this time, Hong Chengtian looked at him kindly, and said with a smile: "You kid, you can be regarded as a legend in Fengshenshan.
Two months ago, you offended the majesty of the gods, incurred the punishment of the great guardian, and were fined to the Shenshu Pavilion to sweep the floor.
, but now it has caused the oracle to come, and he has become the son of an oracle who has met once in two hundred years and lives in this heavenly palace.
Such a twists and turns experience is really wonderful! "
After that, Hong Chengtian stroked his beard, a sincere smile bloomed on his old face.
Ji Tianxing can see that Hong Chengtian is open-minded, kind and kind, and admires him with admiration, so he admires him in his words.
So he stood up and bowed his hands to Hong Chengtian, "I have seen the Three Guardians."
Hong Chengtian waved his hand and said with a smile: "You don't need to stick to the red tape, and you don't need to call it the three-guard law, just call the old man "Hong Lao."
While talking, he actually took the initiative to sit down beside Ji Tianxing.
Ji Tianxing is also not welcome, sitting side by side with him, looking at the sky and the sunrise, and talking with interest.
"Old Hong, why did you come to the altar today? Is it also to wait for the light?"
Hong Chengtian nodded, and smiled lightly: "Yes, for so many years, the old man has come four times a year, and one of them must be baptized with divine light."
Ji Tianxing thought for a while, and asked: "I heard that the divine light from the kingdom of God is most useful to the warriors of the Primordial Divine Realm and the Tribulation Realm, but it has little effect on the strong martial arts.
You are baptized by divine light every year, is it...related to your injury? "
Hong Chengtian tilted his head and glanced at him, and said with a smile: "You kid, really like the rumors outside, you are really free and unrestrained, whatever you want.
If it is other disciples and **** disciples, even if they understand it in their heart, they dare not ask them in person.
It's good for you kid, and you just asked about this in front of the old man. Didn't you deliberately reveal the shortcomings of the old man? "
Although he said so on his lips, there was no hint of blame in his expression and tone.
Ji Tianxing also showed a slight smile, and said in a calm tone: "Some people are humble, polite, and personable on the surface, but inside they are sinister, vicious, ghost tricks.
Unlike me, I don’t need to pretend if I want nothing.
The reason why I asked in person was because I was concerned about Hong's injury. "
Hong Chengtian stared at him and nodded in sympathy: "Well, you kid at a young age, but you have a lot of experience, a lot of insights, and what you said is pretty good.
The old man has cultivated his self-cultivation in Tiansheng Palace for hundreds of years, and now he is still in a state of mind, returning to nature.
Falling from the former Martial Saint Realm to the present Cross Tribulation Realm also made the old man understand a lot of truths.
You are a bit like the old man, you are tired of intrigue and intrigue, and would rather be straightforward to others than false. "
While spoke, he looked at the sky calmly, with a faint smile at the corner of his mouth.
The golden sunrise reflected his white robe and long hair, making him like a sage, a fairy in the clouds, with a misty temperament.
He and Ji Tianxing met just as they did, they were quite fond of each other, so they opened the chatterbox and started chatting.
"What happened back then was the old man's biggest secret, so naturally I can't mention it to others.
However, the old man's injury was too serious, and it hurt the soul, and it cannot be cured so far.
Over the years, the old man has been baptized with divine light every year to suppress his injuries and avoid further deterioration.
In addition, the old man is still studying the way of pill, seeking a cure for his injuries.
Had it not been for the help of divine light, the old man’s skill would have declined sharply.
After hundreds of years, I am afraid that the old man is not much better than you..."
After listening to Ji Tianxing, he frowned for a moment and tried to ask: "Old Hong, can you tell me about the condition of your soul injury and what are the symptoms?"
Hong Chengtian gave him a surprised look, then smiled lightly and said: "What? Does your kid also know the way of pill?"
