48: The White Sect Master with glowing eyes

Three days later.

This was meant to be a celebration banquet exclusive to the upper echelons of the Tianxuan Sect.

However, because the phenomenon of "Divine Elephant Trampling Heaven" was too shocking, and due to the personal inquiry of Sect Master Bai Luoli, the scale of this welcome banquet was elevated time and time again.

Eventually, it evolved into a grand event that captured the attention of the entire Tianxuan Sect!

The venue for the banquet was set at the Main Peak of the Tianxuan Sect, Yingxian Hall.

This was the place specifically used by the Tianxuan Sect to host distinguished guests or hold major celebrations, and it was rarely opened on ordinary days.

Being able to hold the welcome banquet here was enough to show how much the Sect valued Qin Feng.

On this day, the Tianxuan Sect was decorated with lanterns and festoons, and celestial music drifted through the air.

Countless Disciples poured out from their respective peaks and gathered on the Main Peak, all wanting to catch a glimpse of what this legendary "Divine Elephant Prodigy" looked like.

Especially those young female Disciples who were in the bloom of youth; they all dressed up meticulously, turning the entire Main Peak plaza into an ocean of beauty.

Their gazes, without exception, were fixed tightly on the direction of Yingxian Hall, their eyes filled with anticipation and admiration.

Inside Yingxian Hall, it was filled with distinguished guests and big shots.

Peak Revered Masters and Elders of various peaks, anyone with a reputation in the Sect, had almost all arrived.

They gathered in small groups, clinking cups and exchanging drinks, and the topic of their discussion, without exception, was the protagonist of today's banquet—Qin Feng.

"Have you heard? This Qin Feng is the Personal Disciple of Peak Master Zhao of Qingxin Peak. He has only been initiated for a few short years, yet he has already achieved Core Formation. He is truly a Prodigy!"

"More than just a Prodigy! When he achieved Core Formation, he triggered 'Divine Elephant Trampling Heaven'! I have scoured the Sect's ancient books, and I have only seen similar records regarding the Ancestral Master who founded the eternal foundation of our Tianxuan Sect thirty thousand years ago!"

"Hiss... In that case, doesn't this Qin Feng have the bearing of an Ancestral Master?"

"Shh! Be careful with your words! Be careful! But... I'm afraid this is almost certainly true. Didn't you see? Even the Sect Master has personally arrived today!"

Upon hearing this, everyone looked towards the main seat of the hall.

There, Bai Luoli sat in her Black-gold Phoenix Robe, her expression indifferent, possessing an awe-inspiring presence without anger.

And below her sat Zhao Muxue, Ye Nianxin, and Lin Yao.

The "family" of Qingxin Peak was all present and accounted for.

Zhao Muxue was still in her moon-white palace dress, as cold as snow, but in those phoenix eyes that occasionally glanced at the hall entrance, there was a hint of imperceptible anticipation and pride.

Ye Nianxin wore a green dress, gentle and quiet; she lowered her head, sipping Spiritual Tea in small sips, but her slightly reddened earlobes and her fluttering eyelashes betrayed her inner unrest.

Lin Yao was the most lively. Her large, watery eyes darted around constantly, looking at this Elder for a moment and that Peak Revered Master for another, her face filled with curiosity and excitement.

But her gaze would eventually, unconsciously, drift towards the empty entrance of the hall.

They were all waiting.

Waiting for the only protagonist of today's banquet.

"Welcome—Junior Martial Uncle Qin Feng of Qingxin Peak!"

Just then, a loud, clear announcement rang through the entire Yingxian Hall.

Everyone's gaze instantly and collectively focused on the entrance of the hall.

There, a tall and straight figure walked in slowly, bathed in the sunlight from outside the hall.

The person was dressed in a mysterious black brocade robe with cloud patterns, his black hair like a waterfall, tied up with a simple jade hairpin.

His face was as handsome as a god's, with sword-like eyebrows and star-like eyes, a high nose bridge, and deep eyes that seemed to contain endless stars. Just a casual glance carried a charm that made people swoon.

He did not deliberately emit any aura, but in his every move, there was a natural bearing of a Grandmaster, standing like an abyss or a mountain, looking down upon the world.

Behind him, it seemed as if an invisible, primordial Divine Elephant that trod on the Void Realm was following, emitting a terrifying majesty that suppressed the ages!

Hiss—

A sound of gasping echoed throughout the hall.

The moment everyone saw Qin Feng, only two words remained in their hearts.

Prodigy!

How could this be a Cultivator who had just achieved Core Formation?

This was clearly a young God King walking in the mortal world!

"Disciple Qin Feng pays respects to the Sect Master, Revered Master, and all Elders!"

Qin Feng walked to the center of the hall and bowed neither servilely nor overbearingly to the people on the main seats.

His voice was clear and magnetic, carrying a convincing power.

"Good! Good! Good!"

On the main seat, Bai Luoli looked at the young man below who was as handsome as jade with an extraordinary demeanor. Her phoenix eyes flashed with brilliant colors, and she said the word "Good" three times in a row.

She could clearly feel the terrifying power within Qin Feng, like a dormant volcano.

She could even more clearly feel the supreme Divine Might on him, identical to the heaven and earth phenomenon, that suppressed the ages!

Was this... the man who could make her Junior Sister, who looked down on everyone, fall head over heels?

Indeed, it lived up to its reputation!

A smile of interest curled on the corner of Bai Luoli's mouth.

Zhao Muxue, sitting below her, felt an overwhelming sense of pride in her heart as she watched her man being the center of attention.

But on her face, she maintained that cold Revered Master persona, only nodding faintly at Qin Feng.

"Rise."

"Thank you, Sect Master. Thank you, Revered Master."

Qin Feng stood up straight, his gaze sweeping over the faces of Zhao Muxue, Ye Nianxin, and Lin Yao one by one.

When he saw the identical pride and admiration in their eyes, a sense of indescribable satisfaction welled up in his heart.

A real man should be like this!

"Qin Feng."

Just then, Bai Luoli on the main seat spoke again.

Her voice carried a hint of condescending scrutiny.

"I heard that when you achieved Core Formation, you triggered the supreme phenomenon of 'Divine Elephant Trampling Heaven'. I wonder if you could let me, and the fellow Sect members present, open our eyes?"

As soon as these words were spoken, the entire hall became quiet instantly.

Everyone's gaze focused on Qin Feng, their eyes filled with anticipation.

Qin Feng felt a chill in his heart upon hearing this.

The Sect Master is... going to test me in public.

This was also the best opportunity for him to show his strength to the entire Sect!

"Disciple obeys."

Qin Feng did not hesitate at all and bowed to Bai Luoli again.

Then, he slowly closed his eyes.

The next second.

"Roar!"

A roar that seemed to come from the primordial wilderness, filled with supreme majesty, erupted from his body!

A golden, visible wave of Qi swept out in all directions with him at the center!

The entire Yingxian Hall trembled violently under this roar!

Inside the hall, all Cultivators below the Golden Core Stage turned pale and had difficulty breathing under this terrifying pressure, as if they were being pressed hard by an invisible divine mountain!

Even those Elders at the Nascent Soul Stage had solemn expressions, and they had to circulate their Qi to barely resist!

Following that.

Under the shocked gaze of everyone.

A three-zhang-high phantom of a Divine Elephant, composed entirely of brilliant golden light, slowly condensed and formed behind Qin Feng!

Although that Divine Elephant was far from as terrifying as the phenomenon that covered the sky that day.

But that supreme Divine Might, which suppressed everything and reigned supreme, was exactly the same!

The Divine Elephant's trunk flicked lightly.

"Whoosh—"

An invisible gust of wind was born out of thin air!

Inside the hall, the jade plates, delicacies, cups, and chopsticks placed on the tables were all reduced to powder under this gust of wind!

Hiss—

A sound of gasping echoed throughout the hall once again.

Everyone was shocked beyond measure by this scene!

Is this... the strength of the Golden Core Stage?!

This is fucking more terrifying than an Elder at the Late Nascent Soul Stage!

"Good! What a 'Divine Elephant Suppressing Prison Strength'!"

On the main seat, Bai Luoli slapped the table and stood up, brilliant light bursting from her phoenix eyes!
