Unparalleled After Ten Consecutive Draws - Chapter 654
Chapter 654: The New Emperor’s Grand Wedding, Guests from Various Places, Sword Tribe’s Jian Feng
News of Chu Kuangren and the few new Emperors returning to the Black Heaven Sect spread across the entire Firmament Star like wildfire. All orthodoxies and Forbidden Areas were shocked by it.
Soon after that, another news came from the Black Heaven Sect.
The new Emperor Murong Xuan was going to get married, and he had invited all the orthodoxies to attend his wedding!
All of a sudden, a commotion erupted among the countless orthodoxies.
A new Emperor’s wedding!
This could be considered the greatest event that had happened in the past few hundred thousand years.
Everybody wanted to go and join in the fun.
“The Black Heaven Sect has really struck gold for gaining three new Emperors in one go. This is just simply unbelievable.”
“One even announced his marriage upon returning home. They’re trying to announce their presence to the world!”
“Come, let’s go to the Black Heaven Sect and have a look.”
“We can’t just attend a new Emperor’s wedding empty-handed. Go and find some treasures before we go. It doesn’t matter whether the new Emperor likes it or not. What matters is our sincerity.”
Various of Firmament Star’s great forces were sent into a hustle and bustle.
Everybody wanted to capture the attention of the new Emperor, hoping to forge good relations with him.
On Murong Xuan’s big day.
The entire Black Heaven Sect was lavishly decorated for the celebration.
“Hang those lanterns well. Make sure every building has one of those.”
“Also, the red carpet. Set them up nicely. Honestly, I never knew of this walk-the-red-carpet ritual. Is it a common thing to do when cultivators wed?”
Elder Ruyan was busy instructing the disciples on the preparations for the wedding. Although she was very busy, there was a delighted smile on her face.
It had been a long time since the Black Heaven Sect was this buzzing.
Not far away, Yang Xiyun and Murong Xuan looked rather helpless as they watched the rest busying themselves. “I just wanted Sect Leader to witness our marriage. Who knew he would throw such a grand affair instead?” Murong Xuan commented.
“Nonsense. You’re not just any new Emperor. You’re Black Heaven Sect’s very own Daoist, so it has to be grand. Besides, marriage is a once-in-a-lifetime thing. Your bride has already vowed to spend the rest of her life with you. How could you just make it a simple ceremony? We have to make it the grandest occasion ever!”
Elder Ruyan stared Murong Xuan dead in the eye.
Despite having become an Emperor, Murong Xuan still acted like a junior when he was speaking with Elder Ruyan. He dared not rebut her words and merely smiled wryly in response.
“Let me see if there’s anything else left to prepare.”
Elder Ruyan took out a small booklet.
It had all of Chu Kuangren’s suggestions regarding the wedding written on it.
“Ring?”
“We still need a ring as a symbol of your union. Hm, your Sect Leader really does ask for quite a lot of things,” Elder Ruyan muttered under her breath.
She then turned to Murong Xuan and told him, “Why don’t you two go and look for a perfect ring. We’ll need to use it during the ceremony later on.”
“Oh, got it.” Murong Xuan nodded hastily in agreement.
“Hey, hey. That lantern is slightly crooked to the side.”
Elder Ruyan continued on with the preparations.
After three days.
The day of the marriage.
“The Eight Wind Palace has gifted ten stalks of Millennium Coral…”
“The White Jade Inn has gifted ten Wondrous Flowers…”
“The Nether Abyss Valley has gifted ten Ethereal Ice…”
Various great orthodoxies’ leaders attended in person, and many of the Forbidden Areas’ Boundary Emperors came too, each carrying their respective valuable gifts with them.
“Ahem. I can’t. My throat hurts.”
At the reception area, one of the disciples coughed and passed the gift list to another disciple beside him.
The amounts of gifts they were receiving were way too overwhelming. All the named forces on Firmament Star and almost all of their cultivators had turned up.
In front of Longevity Hall.
The orthodoxy leaders and cultivators were gathered here. With numerous tables arranged almost side by side, the atmosphere was incredible.
“My fellow friends, how are you?”
“Eight Wind Palace Lord, you’re here too.”
“Of course. How can I not attend the wedding of the new Emperor?”
“Elder Ruyan, you Black Heaven Sect people are truly fortunate. You guys have three new Emperors all in one go. Do you have any idea how jealous you’ve made us?”
“No, no, not at all. Credits to our Sect Leader’s incredible guidance.”
Elder Ruyan and a few other people were welcoming the guests.
Just then, a man walked out of Longevity Hall. With a white loose-sleeved robe, black hair, and his exquisite looks, the crowd could immediately tell who this familiar face was.
It was none other than Chu Kuangren.
The crowd quickly rose and bowed upon seeing his arrival.
“Greetings, Sect Leader Chu.”
“Greetings, Sect Leader Chu.”
Chu Kuangren smiled and said, “Save the courtesy, my fellow guests. Today is a big day for the Black Heaven Sect. The feast is on the house!”
He swept a glance at Elder Ruyan beside him.
She immediately got the signal. “Bring the wine out.”
The disciples were seen carrying wine bottles to their assigned tables. Soon, the whole place was filled with the pleasant smell of wine mixed with a faint herbal fragrance. It was very refreshing.
When the cultivators present smelt this wine fragrance, they suddenly felt their spiritual power stimulated. They were instantly shocked.
“What kind of wine is this?”
One of the cultivators exclaimed in astonishment. He picked up the wine cup and took a sip of it.
The liquid that entered his throat brought a cool and smooth sensation. Then, it turned into an incredibly delicate spiritual qi, which spread to every nook and cranny of his body. Surprisingly, this wine healed many of the inner injuries that he had suffered from before and increased his spiritual powers up a notch.
“What an amazing wine. Good stuff!!”
The cultivators all gasped in surprise.
The rest of the people also began sipping from their cups when they saw the reaction.
Gasps were soon heard from one end of the crowd to the other.
“This wine has the ability to heal, increase spiritual power, and purge the body of any impurities. With just this cup alone, those meridians that I’ve damaged all those years ago have been healed. Isn’t this marvelous?”
“It truly is unbelievable.”
“What a precious treasure!”
The crowd stared at the wine jar at the very front, their eyes filled with admiration.
Even the Sages were impressed.
“This Spring Rain Wine is a little gift I’ve prepared for everyone to welcome you here in the Black Heaven Sect.” Chu Kuangren said to everyone with a wide smile on his face.
The Spring Rain Wine was a type of herbal wine that Chu Kuangren had brewed.
Since he possessed the Physician’s Inheritance and Black Heaven Sect had numerous resources of elixirs and herbs, it was not hard at all for him to make such a wine.
“Many thanks, Sect Leader Chu.”
“This wine has benefitted us immensely.”
Cultivators were known to amass a body full of inner injuries whenever there was a slight error in their cultivation, such as damages to the meridians
When these inner injuries accumulate to a certain degree, they would become a huge obstacle to a cultivator’s cultivation journey.
This problem could only be solved when they ascend into a Sage and forge a Sage body. Even so, how many of these Firmament Star cultivators could go on and eventually become a Sage?
Chu Kuangren’s Spring Rain Wine was very useful for them.
Besides healing injuries, it could also elevate their spiritual power.
“I’m Sword Tribe’s Jian Feng, and I’m here to deliver my congratulations to the new Emperor!”
Suddenly, an ice-cold voice was heard from beyond the skies.
A golden ray of light shot down from the heavens above!
It was a mighty sword!
A sword that was uniform in texture and looked like it was forged out of pure gold. This sword had various mystical Dao patterns coursing through it, emanating an incredibly terrifying poise. It looked as if an asteroid had hit the earth and was heading straight for the Longevity Hall!
The cultivators in the crowd could sense its terrifying domineering aura. Even those Boundary Emperors were terrified at the sheer force. They were so scared that they shook with fear!
What kind of energy was that?!
Chu Kuangren stared at the sword that was dashing toward them and squinted his eyes. Then, he moved one foot forward, slowly thrusting a sword finger in its direction.
When the tip of the sword collided with the tip of his finger, there were no earth-shattering repercussions produced from the impact.
Instead, the longsword’s body gradually disintegrated, and the Dao patterns on it slowly faded. As a result, the terrifying domineering aura slowly dissipated as well.
In the end, that sword turned into its primordial look as it sat silently in Chu Kuangren’s grip. Upon closer look, the crowd realized that the sword had not yet been sharpened. Strictly speaking, that was a sword mold.
A white-robed middle-aged man walked out of the void while introducing himself. “Jian Feng from the Sword Tribe would like to gift you a Taiyi Fine Gold sword mold. I hope that you’ll accept it.”
