Ji Hao suddenly understood. "No, they also witnessed Emperor Cang proclaim himself emperor. They knew that Yin Gods and Divine Deities like them could never defeat him, no matter what, so they placed their hopes in my hands!"
"What a bunch of old foxes. But what role did that benevolent thought play in all this? How intriguing. In any case, I won't disappoint you!" Ji Hao said solemnly.
Ji Hao gazed at the Divine Dao Heavenly Emperor Sword in his palm and pondered for a moment. With a wave of his hand, "past" and "present" resonated with each other, using the Heavenly Emperor fruit position as their foundation, and opened a Space-Time Gate.
Golden ripples flowed as the treasury of the king opened.
A Heavenly Emperor Saint Sword emerged from within, crossing time to arrive. This was the divine weapon Ji Hao had forged before attaining the Dao, and it had accompanied him throughout his growth. Although it could not compare to mighty treasures like the Heaven Opening Axe, the Immortal Pool, and the Tai Chi Diagram, it was still a first-rate divine weapon. It exercised the Heavenly Emperor's power on his behalf and was regarded as a symbol of the Heavenly Emperor's authority.
"The Heavenly Emperor Saint Sword and the Divine Dao Emperor Sword will become one, truly representing the Heavenly Emperor's authority. Then it really will be no less powerful than the Heaven-Opening Divine Axe," Ji Hao said, divine radiance shimmering in his eyes as he deduced the might of the combined swords.
"When the sword moves, heaven and earth change color, the heavens darken together, and the stars shift in their courses, defying the heavens and changing fate. All such might falls under the Heavenly Emperor's authority, possessing inconceivable power."
"This sword is excellent!" Ji Hao chuckled.
