Chapter 2668: Unworthy

“The Celestial Sword Saint?” Gongsun Zhi’s eyes suddenly lit up when they mentioned that name .

He did not know the Celestial Sword Saint’s cultivation, but the Celestial Sword Saint was the undisputed greatest cultivator on the Desolate Plane . He cultivated reclusively in the Sword God Mountains all year round, never paying attention to the matters around him, nor interfering in any of them . He was an extremely aloof figure .

Xu Zhiping’s words were seemingly enlightening . It allowed countless thoughts to flood Gongsun Zhi’s head in an instant, giving him an idea immediately .

“The Celestial Sword Saint holds a very great status, but I am no longer the mere Godking from the past . I am a Grand Exalt’s descendant . The blood of a Grand Exalt courses through my veins . I’m also the master of the greatest protector sword, Godslayer’s sword, as well as the leader of the Radiant Saint Hall . The Celestial Sword Saint will definitely treat me with importance given that,” thought Gongsun Zhi . It opened his mind to many new ideas .

The morning of the next day, Gongsun Zhi prepared a few lavish gifts and created quite a scene by visiting the Celestial Sword Saint with the vice-leaders and some elders of the Radiant Saint Hall loyal to him .

He managed to meet the Celestial Sword Saint as he wished . The Celestial Sword Saint currently sat on the edge of a cliff at the top of the Sword God Mountains like an old, meditating monk . He did not give off any presence at all . As he sat there with his straight back, he seemed like a normal, healthy, old man .

Gongsun Zhi was rather excited as he stood behind the Celestial Sword Saint . In the past, the Celestial Sword Saint had always been a figure of legends to him . Not only did he seem insurmountable, but even just catching a glimpse of him was a dream for Gongsun Zhi .

Now, he was so close to the Celestial Sword Saint . A legend was presented right before him like this, so it was difficult for him to not become emotional .

The Celestial Sword Saint spoke first . He said completely calmly and emotionlessly, “Gongsun Zhi, I know why you’ve come . You want me to deal with the Rain Abbess of the Delight Plane . ”

“Senior Sword Saint really does have divine foresight, never leaving the Sword God Mountains but knowing everything that happens in the world . Senior’s level of cultivation is truly admirable . ” Gongsun Zhi expressed his admiration from the bottom of his heart . He was arrogant, but he still felt admiration towards the Celestial Sword Saint from the bottom of his heart .

Not only was the Celestial Sword Saint the undisputed greatest expert of the Desolate Plane, but his prestige on the plane had reached an unmatched level as well . He was supreme .

In other words, all cultivators on the Desolate Plane who knew the Celestial Sword Saint would revere him .

“I cannot assist you in that . I must tell you that the Rain Abbess is much stronger than you have imagined her to be . It’s best if your Radiant Saint Hall does not provoke her,” the Celestial Sword Saint continued . He seemed to know everything, refusing Gongsun Zhi’s request before he could even mention it .

Gongsun Zhi was stunned . He had never thought that the Celestial Sword Saint would turn him down before he could even mention the matter . Moreover, he declined in such an absolute fashion, leaving no room for negotiation .

Gongsun Zhi became rather speechless at that moment . All the methods of insistence he had prepared beforehand had been rendered useless by the Celestial Sword Saint’s simple reply .

Only after quite a daze did Gongsun Zhi force out, “Celestial Sword Saint, are you afraid of the Rain Abbess?”

“I’ve only told you that because of Godslayer’s sword in your hands . You will gain no benefits from offending the Rain Abbess of the Delight Plane . That’s all I have to say . Take care . ” The Celestial Sword Saint did not waver at all . He remained seated there like an unmoving rock . Only his old voice boomed out .

He did not even glance at Gongsun Zhi, as if he did not take Gongsun Zhi seriously at all . It was like he had only seen Gongsun Zhi because of Godslayer’s Sword .

The Celestial Sword Saint’s straightforward reply became offending in Gongsun Zhi’s ears . He felt like he was being belittled .

Who was Gongsun Zhi? He was the mighty descendant of a Grand Exalt, the youngest leader in the Radiant Saint Hall’s history, and the wielder of the greatest protector sword, Godslayer’s sword . All of these aspects made Gongsun Zhi extremely confident and arrogant . He would not allow anyone to belittle him .

He respected the Celestial Sword Saint very much, but the Celestial Sword Saint’s words had infuriated him .

“Celestial Sword Saint, I respect you because you are my senior . However, don’t take it too far . You may be scared of the Rain Abess, but I’m not . Godslayer’s sword may not be able to take the Rain Abbess’ life, but I refuse to believe that I can’t deal with the Rain Abbess if there’s the Tower of Radiance as well . ”

“Don’t forget, I am the Grand Exalt’s descendant . The Tower of Radiance came from my ancestor, so I am the only one who can inherit it . The Tower of Radiance will accept me as its master sooner or later . ” As if someone had stepped on Gongsun Zhi’s toes, he snarled at the Celestial Sword Saint furiously .

“No, you’re wrong . You won’t obtain the Tower of Radiance,” said the Celestial Sword Saint .

“What? Did you just say that I won’t obtain the Tower of Radiance? Hahahahaha . ” Gongsun Zhi laughed out of anger . He boasted shamelessly, “Across the world, no one is more worthy of obtaining my ancestor’s Tower of Radiance than me . ”

“The Tower of Radiance is no ordinary god artifact, nor is it like the protector swords of your Radiant Saint Hall . It is a supreme treasure personally forged by a Grand Exalt . You must fulfil some natural conditions to gain its recognition . Unfortunately, you have not, which is why there is no chance for you to become its master,” said the Celestial Sword Saint .

“Celestial Sword Saint, don’t talk nonsense . The Tower of Radiance is the supreme treasure of our Radiant Saint Hall . No one understands it better than our Radiant Saint Hall . How would you know what we don’t?” Gongsun Zhi barked . His heart had already been set alit with fury . If it were not for the fact that the person before him held supreme prestige on the Desolate Plane, he would have swung Godslayer’s sword at him already .

He treated the Tower of Radiance with absolute importance, even more than Godslayer’s sword in his hands, and this was all because it was a treasure on the levels of Grand Exalts .

As long as he possessed the Tower of Radiance, basically no one could harm him apart from Grand Exalts .

As a result, he could not accept others saying that he was unworthy of the Tower of Radiance . That touched on a soft spot of his .

In the end, Gongsun Zhi failed to get the Celestial Sword Saint to take part . He left the Sword God Mountains with a sunken face .

After Gongsun Zhi left, the Celestial Sword Saint slowly opened his eyes . He stared at the Radiant Saint Hall with a deep gaze .

His gaze seemed to be able to pierce through the formations around the Radiant Saint Hall, directly locking onto the sacred hall floating above the clouds . He murmured, “Jian Chen really is someone that cannot be seen through . However, if he still doesn’t appear, the Tower of Radiance will probably become the Tower of Radiance of the past…”
