Chapter 899 - 556: Qiu Xue Appears, Identity of the Mad Wind (Combined)_2
...
Coral Island, the celebration banquet commenced as scheduled.
The newly constructed hall was more magnificent and spacious; the ceiling was adorned with Fourth Rank colorful jade spirit lamps, and the tables were made from Third Rank Spirit Jade, rich in Spiritual Energy.
On these tables, Fourth Rank Spirit Fruits and Fourth Rank Spiritual Wines were displayed.
When the banquet began, there would even be Fourth Rank spirit dishes.
What's more, it was said that there would be a Fifth Rank Dragon Slaughtering Feast!
Previously at Lin Shiming's Golden Core ceremony, he had desired to host a Dragon Slaughtering Feast, but at that time he had prepared dishes from an early Fifth Rank Demon King!
This time, it was a feast from the late Fifth Rank Tianqing Flood Dragon King, arguably the Coral Alliance's most extravagant gesture!
Shiming didn't know whether Coral Island was truly benefiting the masses or doing it for Tianliu True Person.
But one could imagine that Tianliu True Person probably had no feelings about it.
The entire hall was filled with opulence, symbolizing the highest standard of celebration by the Coral Alliance.
According to the Coral Alliance's thousands of years of history, such a grandeur had only happened three times.
And this was the fourth.
Above Coral Island, brilliant fireworks started to light up, with bursts of Spiritual Radiance appearing.
These Luminous Auras evolved into over a thousand different Spirit Beast phantasms.
With each phantasm's formation, it would become a Spirit Shadow of Luminous Aura, randomly descending into the crowd, creating a Fourth Rank opportunity.
The minimum requirement to attend this banquet was the rank of Purple Mansion cultivators.
Soon enough, many people acquired their opportunities, and even Shiming received one; a surge of Spiritual Energy rushed into his body, threatening to run rampant everywhere.
The effect of the Elixir was even comparable to a Supreme Grade Fourth Rank Spirit Pill that advances one's cultivation level.
Within it, one could feel the essence of many thousand-year-old Spiritual Medicines.
Shiming wasn't surprised by this; if he could find a way to acquire an incomplete Purple Sun Tower, then it's plausible Coral Island could as well.
Besides, they controlled the Purple Sun Secret Realm, with the most number of cultivators entering each time, the highest cultivation levels, the strongest power, and the widest knowledge!
Securing numerous Thousand Year Spirit Medicines, Shiming found it believable.
After all, the Heavenly Gate Soul Locking Great Formation was also provided by Coral Island.
"My fellow Daoists and friends, I, Chizhi, thank you all for your desperate defenses!" Chizhi True Person strode forward majestically, took her place at the head seat, and boldly raised her wine cup to toast.
Shiming and other True Persons also picked up their cups, but compared to before the battle, there were noticeably fewer figures among the True Persons.
"But unfortunately, we have lost," Chizhi True Person clenched her fist tightly before instantly releasing it.
"My friends, surely everyone has many doubts!"
"The Gale Tribe Elder is the fifteenth of the Zhao Family's Yao generation under the Coral Alliance, and is also Chizhi's fifteenth uncle!"
"It's just that he went out of the family for trials when he was young and fell in love with a Loose Cultivator, which caused some conflicts with the family, but he reconciled with the family fifty years ago and began attempting a Nascent Soul breakthrough!"
"It's a pity that the Nascent Soul path is difficult to achieve and there were villains causing trouble!"
"How despicable!" Chizhi True Person downed her drink in one gulp; at this moment, her female form emitted an indescribable boldness!
Other True Persons and even Purple Mansion cultivators in attendance were all shocked to the extreme!
Before this, they always thought Kuangfeng True Person was a Loose Cultivator.
And while Coral Island has always been considered part of the Coral Alliance, many forgot that most of the Purple Mansion and Golden Core members within the Coral Alliance bore the surname Zhao.
After all, upon reaching Purple Mansion and Golden Core, most would use their cultivation titles.
Shiming looked towards Tianliu True Person and saw him with an expression of calm.
Equally calm was Red Leaf True Person.
This meant the matter of Kuangfeng True Person was almost certainly true.
They were the two most familiar with Kuangfeng True Person.
After some contemplation, Shiming also understood that the possibility of Kuangfeng True Person being from a great family was indeed larger.
After all, Kuangfeng True Person possessed Sixth Rank Alchemy lineage, Sixth Rank Formation lineage, and Sixth Rank Spirit Dish lineage.
For an ordinary Loose Cultivator to have such fortune would be extremely difficult.
Without experiencing the life of a Loose Cultivator firsthand, one can hardly comprehend the hardships involved.
In fact, relatively speaking, when Jiuxiao True Person became a Purple Mansion, he was already considered fortunate among Loose Cultivators.
His Cultivation Technique was the Nine Heavens Spiritual Water Scripture, and drinking Spiritual Wine could improve his cultivation level.
Another inheritance of a Golden Core hermitage has been passed down.
Though my cultivation level has reached the late stage of Purple Mansion, life is still like walking on thin ice, largely because artifact refining and cultivation have consumed massive amounts of time.
Unlike me, True Person Kuangfeng excels in Spirit Pills, Formations, and Spiritual meals – he has high proficiency in all!
The key point is, he owns quite a few ancient tomes. Such extensive knowledge would be difficult for a Loose Cultivator to possess.
It would be even harder for them to achieve greater heights in these three arts.
Shiming couldn't help but smile wryly. He believed about eighty percent of what True Person Kuangfeng had said.
However, he was also aware that there must be some hidden truths.
For example, True Person Kuangfeng's lifespan must not be much longer.
True Person Red Leaf is already over eight hundred years old. True Person Kuangfeng is Red Leaf's clan elder, so he is probably over nine hundred, and his life force and blood are likely in decline.
Perhaps there is a sense of desperation for a final struggle within him.
As for the source of the Thousand Year Spirit Medicine, Shiming guessed that it's most likely a gift from Coral Island.
Shiming continued to ponder in his heart.
True Person Red Leaf had already started to bestow a posthumous title on True Person Kuangfeng, even using the rank of True Monarch.
Once this process was finished, True Person Red Leaf took out a bottle of Spiritual Wine and raised a toast to the assembly of True Persons.
This cup of Spiritual Wine was still of Fifth Rank, comparable to Golden Core Spiritual Medicine. Shiming couldn't help thinking of True Person Kuangfeng, remembering the last celebration feast.
True Person Kuangfeng had even taken more than half a bottle of Fifth Rank Spiritual Wine for himself.
But now, this Jade Dew, when he drank it, was quite bitter.
The influx of Spiritual Energy was not as refreshing and cool as before.
Instead, it brought a trace of heavy sorrow.
"Next, we will proceed with the rewards for the valiant efforts of everyone present!" True Person Red Leaf finished his cup of Spiritual Wine and called forth numerous stunningly beautiful female cultivators in red robes!
Each of them in the prime of their youth, mesmerizing, holding a Jade Disk, which in turn held a Jade Box.
Within the Jade Boxes were Spirit Medicines!
The sight made everyone's breathing turn rapid.
All of them were Spirit Medicines over three thousand years old. These were attractive to all the Golden Core Cultivators present.
Especially now that the breakthrough to Nascent Soul was no longer a dream, each cultivator's heart was stirred even more.
"This time Daoist Mingdeng, Daoist Tianliu, and Daoist Lin each slayed four True Persons and have each won twelve strands of five thousand year old Spirit Medicine!" True Person Red Leaf handed three Jade Disks to True Person Mingdeng, Shiming, and True Person Tianliu respectively.
The Spirit Medicines for True Person Mingdeng were Fire Attribute, Shiming's were Wood Attribute, and True Person Tianliu's were Water Attribute, all matching the elements of the receivers.
This clearly showed the Coral Alliance's grandeur.
Such riches made Shiming hesitant — is Coral Island truly just assisting Xue Shan True Person and True Person Kuangfeng in their Nascent Soul breakthrough?
"Additionally, the three of you will each get to pose three questions to True Monarch Xue Shan. I hope you will all come well-prepared!" True Person Red Leaf announced again, this time with a smile at the corner of his mouth.
Although the cultivators were not surprised by this revelation; since True Person Kuangfeng had a Nascent Soul breakthrough at Coral Island, it was highly likely that True Monarch Xue Shan was breaking through elsewhere at the same time. Otherwise, there was no need for such fanfare.
Possibly, True Monarch Xue Shan had even broken through earlier.
Though that's what they thought inwardly, outwardly everyone was offering congratulations.
True Person Red Leaf then continued to announce the rewards.
Both True Person Qian Ji and True Person Red Leaf had each slain two people.
The former had plenty of Spirit Puppets at his disposal; without his desperate defense against True Person Jin Lei, he would've slain even more.
As for the latter, True Person Red Leaf's strength was in his Minor Divine Ability that could follow like a shadow.
"Alright, next, serve the Dragon Slaughtering Feast, let's drink the blood of Tianqing and eat the meat of the Flood Dragon King!" True Person Red Leaf made the declaration, and the cultivators began to bring out platters. The Spirit Beasts consumed by the Hermits of Purple Mansion were only bite-sized pieces.
Of course, even a single piece contained astonishing Spiritual Power, indigestible for ordinary cultivators of Purple Mansion.
However, the tables of Golden Core True Persons were served with large platters.
Shiming recalled how Tianqing Flood Dragon King once ambushed him, which opened up his appetite greatly.
But after finishing, Shiming shook his head.
This Flood Dragon which had undergone two Tribulations didn't taste much more delicate than ordinary snake meat!
"Ladies and gentlemen, True Monarch Xue Shan's Grand Ceremony approving the True Monarch rank will be held in ten years. I hope everyone present can attend without fail!" As the event drew to a close, True Person Red Leaf raised his cup for the final toast.
