Chapter 26: Bloodlight Calamity
Chapter 26: Bloodlight Calamity
As the cultivators from various sects landed, their expressions varied.
Qi Yuan stood to the side, already familiar with the leaders of each sect.
Due to the Foundation Establishment Spirit Treasure being of First Rank, the cultivators sent by each sect were stronger than those in the past.
In previous Foundation Establishment Gatherings, there wouldn't even be Core Formation True Immortals in attendance.
But this time, four of them had arrived.
Two each from the Floating Mountain and Demon Desire Sect.
Representing the Great Shang Kingdom was the Duke of Changshan.
And from the Black Mountain Sect, the Chicken Worshipping Ancestor.
In fact, according to the unspoken rules of the cultivation world, aside from the three major sects and the Great Shang Kingdom, other sects, despite their importance, should not send Core Formation True Immortals.
However, the Black Mountain Sect was arrogant and domineering, and they had been pushing for their sect to become one of the four major sects, which was why they sent the Chicken Worshipping Ancestor.
Behind these powerful cultivators stood some Foundation Establishment Elders and Qi Condensation Peak disciples from their respective sects.
Many of the Qi Condensation disciples had sharp glints in their eyes, clearly hoping to showcase their talents at this Foundation Establishment Gathering.
On the other hand, some disciples from minor sects had apprehensive expressions, evidently fearful of not achieving good results.
The Duke of Changshan had a majestic beard and wore luxurious silk robes. He strode forward towards Qi Yuan with a smile, "Is your Sect Master still in seclusion? After the Foundation Establishment Gathering, have him come and drink with me!"
The Duke of Changshan appeared carefree, and although he was a Core Formation True Immortal, his speech exuded a heroic aura.
The Core Formation True Immortals from the various sects looked at the Duke of Changshan with a hint of reverence in their eyes.
After all, the Duke of Changshan was the father of the current Empress of the Great Shang Kingdom, and he had the confidence to match.
"After the Foundation Establishment Gathering, the Duke may inquire with our Sect's Elders," Qi Yuan thought to himself.
If the Duke of Changshan found out that his daughter and the Sect Master were involved, he wondered if they could still drink together.
After all, the Sect Master was significantly older than the Duke of Changshan.
Qi Yuan was the Chief Disciple of the Seven-Colored Peak, and although he was at the Qi Condensation Peak, his status was only slightly lower than that of a Core Formation cultivator. At this moment, he represented the Divine Light Sect.
That was why these Core Formation cultivators treated him as an equal.
At this moment, the Chicken Worshipping Ancestor from the Black Mountain Sect spoke impatiently, "Why isn't the Foundation Establishment Gathering starting already? I'm eager to return to raising my chickens."
The other sect elders present heard this and their faces slightly changed, clearly dissatisfied with the Chicken Worshipping Ancestor's words.
The Duke of Changshan laughed heartily, "Why so impatient, Chicken Worshipping Ancestor? It's not like we're short on time."
Seeing that it was the Duke of Changshan speaking, the Chicken Worshipping Ancestor gave him some face.
If it were anyone else, he would have retorted.
Qi Yuan then said, "Please, everyone!"
The Chicken Worshipping Ancestor, originally named Kunshan Shangren, later acknowledged the Black Chicken Old Demon as his foster father alongside the Black Mountain Sect's leader and changed his name to Chicken Worshipping Ancestor.
The group followed Qi Yuan as they headed towards the interior of the Divine Light Sect.
These leading elders chatted as they walked.
As for the others, they remained silent.
Just then, a rather frivolous voice sounded, "Hey, isn't that Jiang Ran? How did she end up at the Divine Light Sect?"
Everyone's gaze turned towards a Foundation Establishment cultivator with a frivolous expression.
A female disciple from the Divine Light Sect turned pale.
She was Jiang Ran.
Qi Yuan had met her twice before.
Qi Yuan knew that Jiang Ran had a unique physique, and this man's face seemed to carry a hint of impending bloodlight calamity.
The disciples of the Divine Light Sect also glared at the frivolous man, their expressions filled with anger.
"Chu Tian Xiong!"
"How dare you come to our Divine Light Sect!"
"You're despicable!"
The frivolous-looking man was none other than Chu Tian Xiong, who had committed heinous crimes in Rongcheng.
He had defiled several newlywed women and murdered their entire families.
Zheng Jiang He led the Golden Light Hall and captured Chu Tian Xiong.
However, an Elder from the Black Mountain Sect at the Foundation Establishment Full Proficiency Realm appeared, injuring Zheng Jiang He and rescuing Chu Tian Xiong, acting especially arrogantly.
Hearing the voices of the Divine Light Sect's disciples, Chu Tian Xiong's mocking expression intensified. "Your gnashing of teeth resembles that of a certain Zheng Jiang He from a while ago."
The Divine Light Sect's disciples grew even angrier upon hearing this.
After all, not long ago, Senior Apprentice Brother Zheng Jiang He was injured by Chu Tian Xiong.
Yet, Chu Tian Xiong's heinous crimes went unpunished.
At the Divine Light Sect's mountain gate, several elderly men with white hair knelt, enduring sun and rain, all for the sake of the victimized brides' families!
As for the grooms' families, there were no survivors, a truly tragic fate.
At this moment, Qi Yuan, who had been silent all along, suddenly spoke up, "Fellow Daoist, I've recently cultivated a divination technique. May I foretell your fortune?"
Chu Tian Xiong was taken aback and squinted, "Go ahead, Junior."
"I see darkness in your fate palace, and I fear you will soon encounter a bloodlight calamity." Qi Yuan whispered.
These words silenced the entire hall, and no one spoke.
Chu Tian Xiong's face flushed with anger, but just as he was about to erupt, he was stopped by the Chicken Worshipping Ancestor.
Chu Tian Xiong heard the sound transmission and repeatedly said, "Good, good, good. Thank you, Junior. I won't forget this, Senior!"
The Black Mountain Sect feared not the Divine Light Sect, but they dared not provoke the Seven-Colored Peak.
...
The storm passed, and the Foundation Establishment Gathering commenced.
Disciples from various sects at the Qi Condensation Realm took to the stage one after another.
The Foundation Establishment Gathering was simple—a spell combat.
Qi Yuan found it rather boring.
After all, in the game world, he had seen countless battles of this caliber, and they had become tedious to him.
If not for the crowd, he would have taken out his game jade slip to play.
At that moment, a voice sounded beside Qi Yuan.
"Senior, it's your turn."
Qi Yuan, upon hearing this, slowly walked onto the stage.
The Core Formation True Immortals and Foundation Establishment cultivators present all fixed their gazes on Qi Yuan.
After all, Qi Yuan was the chief disciple of the Seven-Colored Peak, a position of extreme importance.
"Greetings, Senior. I am Duan Tianjiao from the Demon Desire Sect." Duan Tianjiao wore a black outfit that accentuated her curves, and a teardrop-shaped mole beneath her left eye added to her allure.
"Qi Yuan from the Divine Light Sect." Qi Yuan introduced himself as well.
He, too, was observing Duan Tianjiao.
[She is an ordinary cultivator with a peculiar habit of picking her feet. Beware of her kicks, or you might catch athlete's foot.]
Qi Yuan was taken aback. This girl was not only beautiful but also skilled in biochemical attacks. He needed to be cautious.
"Begin!" With the sound of a bell, the battle commenced.
Qi Yuan was extremely cautious, keeping his eyes fixed on Duan Tianjiao's feet.
As he saw her flying towards him, he lightly raised his hand.
But before he could even start channeling his spiritual power, something astonishing happened.
"Pfft..."
Duan Tianjiao flew backward, spitting blood.
"Senior, as expected of the chief disciple of the Seven-Colored Peak. Your spatial acupoint piercing technique is truly formidable. I admit defeat!" Duan Tianjiao stood up and conceded.
Qi Yuan was left bewildered. "I didn't even use any strength, and you fell?"
Something was wrong. He hadn't even made a move, and his opponent had conceded?
Was there some conspiracy behind this Foundation Establishment Gathering?
The other sect elders and Qi Condensation disciples in the audience showed no surprise.
However, some disciples looked at Qi Yuan with a hint of jealousy in their eyes.
