Chapter 138: Chapter 100: The Two Sects React, A Great Uproar, Golden Silkworm! (Part 2)

"Elder Qi Chuan, has fallen? How is that possible?"

Among the True Disciples, those like Lu Pill who had some interactions with Qi Chuan were also stunned and extremely surprised.

Nobody expected that Qi Chuan would actually fall.

Especially Lu Pill, who was the leading True Disciple among the eleven. Initially, Lu Pill highly regarded Qi Chuan for surpassing all other True Disciples and achieving Foundation Establishment first.

Earlier, he had also heard about Qi Chuan’s slaying of Lin Sha, an Elder from the Celestial Soul Hall, at the Spirit Stone Mine Battlefield, which had already earned him some respect.

However, who would have thought that not long after this news returned, Qi Chuan would fall?

He didn’t die at the hands of someone from the Celestial Soul Hall, but perished amidst the dangers encountered while exploring the Secret Realm, who could have foreseen this?

"It seems that in the future, when encountering things like Secret Realms or fortuitous opportunities, one needs to be more cautious." Many True Disciples, including Lu Pill, thought this way.

In Wind Moon Lake, upon numerous Elder Islands and within Tier Two Cave Mansions, many Foundation Establishment Elders of the Wind Moon Sect were also in an uproar upon hearing this matter.

Even they had never anticipated that something like this would happen to Qi Chuan.

Among these Foundation Establishment Elders, many knew their potential was limited to their current realm, some even believed they couldn’t match the young Qi Chuan, who had a high Cultivation Immortality Talent.

Many Elders believed that Qi Chuan’s potential was even better than that of the equally young Elder Yun Qingyue.

Not long ago, at the Spirit Stone Mine Battlefield, Qi Chuan’s slaying of Lin Sha also proved this point.

But now, everything is different.

No matter how talented Qi Chuan was, he unexpectedly perished in the Secret Realm Space, all of his talent turned to dust, all in vain.

"Cultivating immortality, cultivating immortality, but if life is lost, how can one continue..." Many Elders slightly shook their heads, sighing in their hearts.

Meanwhile, upon hearing the news, Yun Qingyue, with her icy and unparalleled beauty, displayed both shock and bewilderment in her beautiful eyes.

"Qi Chuan, has fallen?"

Not long ago, Qi Chuan even helped her at the Spirit Stone Mine Battlefield to kill Lin Sha.

In the Secret Realm Space, on the giant mountain’s stone steps, she also saw Qi Chuan surpassing everyone, including the Wind Moon Sect and Celestial Soul Hall’s Sect Leaders, leading the charge to the top of the giant mountain.

She didn’t know what Qi Chuan encountered at the mountain peak, but now, it seems it was danger and not fortuitous opportunity?

"How could this be..." Yun Qingyue murmured softly.

Qi Chuan’s talent and strength were acknowledged by even her, yet she did not expect him to encounter such misfortune.

In an instant, Yun Qingyue looked up, her eyes gazing outside the Cave Mansion, her gaze complicated.

...

At the same time, within the Celestial Soul Hall, in a pitch-black great hall, a chilling aura pervaded as a row of massive blood-patterned black pillars stood. Beside the pillars, a group of Foundation Establishment Elders from the Celestial Soul Hall stood in attendance, all facing the front of the hall, their expressions respectful.

"That boy called Qi Chuan, did he really die?" 𝑓𝑟ℯ𝘦𝓌𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝑐ℴ𝓂

Amidst the focused gaze of the many Foundation Establishment Elders of the Celestial Soul Hall, a young man in a blood-patterned black robe lay idly on a black large chair at the head of the hall, propping half of his face with a pale hand, slightly frowning as he spoke.

This was none other than the Sect Leader of the Celestial Soul Hall, Tian Hunzi, who had reached Foundation Establishment Perfection Cultivation.

The news of Qi Chuan’s fall was something Tian Hunzi had not expected.

After all, a few days ago, after Qi Chuan ascended to the peak of the giant mountain in the Secret Realm Space, everyone, including himself, was transported out, having not encountered any danger.

Moreover, he had heard from the Wind Moon Sect’s side that everyone, including their Sect Leader Situ Jiang, had returned to the Wind Moon Sect.

Given this situation, he had guessed that Qi Chuan, having reached the peak of the giant mountain, might have acquired an opportunity there, causing a transformation in the Secret Realm Space, leading to everyone’s forced transport out.

The high-tier array enshrouding the mountain peak might be a Tier Three Array, or even a Tier Four Array. From this perspective, Qi Chuan should have obtained at least a Core Formation level opportunity, possibly even a Nascent Soul True Monarch level opportunity.

This is exceedingly tempting.

Not just him, even the Core Formation True Masters in this hall would undoubtedly be highly interested upon hearing this.

But at this moment, the Wind Moon Sect unexpectedly announced the news that Qi Chuan had died?

"Strange, peculiar, though not entirely impossible, who can predict the exact circumstances within the Secret Realm Space?"

Tian Hunzi thought thus, frowning repeatedly.

He clearly hadn’t easily believed the Wind Moon Sect’s statement.

"Supreme Elder, what do you think?"

Suddenly, Tian Hunzi’s gaze shifted to his left, towards a small Patterned Dragon Golden Chair, revealing a stiff smile on his face, respectfully inquiring.

Upon that small Patterned Dragon Golden Chair sat a child with rosy lips and pearly teeth, and chubby cheeks, appearing very young, almost like a baby, with an aura resembling that of a mortal.

Yet it was this baby-like mortal, who, sitting there with large black and white eyes sweeping across the hall, caused an air of chilling silence within it, with all Foundation Establishment Elders of the Celestial Soul Hall not daring to breathe loudly, just bowing their heads, eyes fixed on the floor, not daring to meet the gaze of the baby on the golden chair.

This baby was none other than the Supreme Elder of the Celestial Soul Hall, named Golden Silkworm, at the True Master realm of Core Formation! His power shook the surrounding regions, only slightly overshadowed by the Supreme Elder of the Wind Moon Sect, Profound Sword True Master.

It’s said that earlier, when this Supreme Elder of the Celestial Soul Hall first made his mark, he was arrogant and unrestrained, continuously challenging the Core Formation True Masters of neighboring Sects without defeat.

Eventually, he encountered the Profound Sword True Master of the Wind Moon Sect and was severely injured by a single strike, narrowly escaping with his life by performing a sacrificial blood escape technique. After that, he retained a great fear of the Profound Sword True Master of the Wind Moon Sect.

Nonetheless, his own strength was extremely strong, not weak among Core Formation True Masters, with many combat achievements to verify.

The reason he appeared as a baby now was due to cultivating a special Demonic Cultivation Technique, which had the miraculous effect of occasionally reversing the age of his skin, granting a little more lifespan and even magical power foundation.

This kind of cultivation method, despite its numerous constraints, still evoked envy among many Foundation Establishment Elders of the Celestial Soul Hall, including Sect Leader Tian Hunzi.

However, the Golden Silkworm Supreme Elder always kept this treasure to himself, never imparting it to any Foundation Establishment Elders, not even Sect Leader Tian Hunzi.

This practice caused discontent among many Elders, though none dared to show it.

"I think it’s certainly fake!"

And at this moment, upon hearing Tian Hunzi’s inquiry, the baby-like Golden Silkworm almost without thinking, spoke in a very tender and coy voice.

"The Supreme Elder also thinks it’s fake?"

Upon hearing that, Tian Hunzi nodded, also finding it reasonable, and credible, then said, "Then, what do you think should be done? The opportunity in Qi Chuan’s hands can’t be handed over to the Wind Moon Sect, right?"

"Of course! We must seize it from the Wind Moon Sect! It’s possibly an opportunity at the Nascent Soul level. I too am aspiring towards the Nascent Soul True Monarch Realm, how could I miss it?" Golden Silkworm heavily nodded his baby head.

"Then the intention of the Supreme Elder is..." Tian Hunzi’s tone carried a hint of inquiry.

"Have people secretly search for Qi Chuan’s whereabouts within the Sect Domain controlled by the Wind Moon Sect. If any traces are found, report immediately, and I’ll consider how to handle it." Golden Silkworm shook his head and said.

"What about within the Wind Moon Sect itself? Qi Chuan might be hiding within the enemy Sect, never coming out. Anyway, considering Profound Sword True Master may also have encountered some issues, should we... try some... doorstep pressing methods?" Saying this, Tian Hunzi’s eyes narrowed, his tone filled with murderous intent.

Yet the next moment, an unexpected yet seemingly inevitable tender voice resounded, causing both him and all the Foundation Establishment Elders in the hall to be surprised.

"Not wise, not wise, not wise. That fellow Profound Sword just might have encountered issues, not definitely has encountered issues. Let’s wait and see, just have people secretly search for Qi Chuan’s whereabouts first, I’m not that desperate for the Nascent Soul opportunity..."

The baby-like Golden Silkworm upon hearing Tian Hunzi’s proposal, widened his eyes and repeatedly shook his head in denial.
