Chapter 63: Whether the Shinguang Sect is Chaotic or Not Depends on Qi Yuan
At the same time, strange things were happening all over the Shinguang Sect.
Two Qi Refining disciples were sparring with their swords.
Suddenly, their swords broke free from their hands and started fighting in mid-air.
The onlookers were stunned.
“Ye Buxiu and Li Fan must have been hiding their strength, mastering sword control at Qi Refining level three. Terrifying! This talent must not be underestimated... I mean, this talent will surely achieve great things!”
Ye Buxiu was dumbfounded, and Li Fan was shocked.
When did they learn sword control? They had no idea.
As everyone was marveling, a loud shout came from the sky.
“Catch it, my alchemy furnace is running away! There’s a batch of pills inside!”
Everyone looked up to see a bright red furnace darting around in the sky, bouncing erratically.
An elder was frantically chasing his alchemy furnace.
Before anyone could react, more strange things happened.
“Damn it, my sword ran away!”
“Ah, my silver, why is it flying into the sky?”
“The hairpin I was going to give to my master’s wife, why is it flying too?”
Countless metal objects were flying into the sky, bouncing around like they had lost their minds.
This scene caught the attention of many elders.
Many elders in seclusion came out because treasures from their storage bags flew away.
Master Withered Wood stood on a cloud, several elders flying to his side.
They looked down at the Shinguang Sect from the sky, their expressions varied.
Now, the Shinguang Sect was like a scene of chaos, with countless metal objects flying towards the sky and bouncing around.
The types of metal objects were varied and strange.
“My iron hand, why have you abandoned me?” A one-armed man cried bitterly.
“Whoa, Mr. Jiao, it’s made of innate fire iron, which junior sister is this fierce?”
“Whose golden underwear is this? So flashy!”
“Have our magical tools gained sentience and are rebelling?”
The disciples below were shocked, discussing amongst themselves.
They couldn’t understand what was happening.
On the Seven Colors Peak, the knife looked at the flying magical tools in the sky, full of envy.
It thought for a moment, then broke free from its rope and secretly flew out.
Anyway, everyone else was going crazy.
If it, a normal knife, joined in, surely no one would notice, right?
Above the clouds, several elders stood behind the sect leader of Shinguang Sect, their eyes filled with confusion.
“Sect Leader, this is a strange occurrence,” said a white-bearded elder. Just moments ago, while he was cultivating, he suddenly felt a chill and his underwear flew away. That underwear was a defensive magical tool he had spent a lot to create, with many precious metals added to it. Yet, it just flew away.
The other elders, also affected in various ways, were equally puzzled.
The sect leader of Shinguang Sect extended his divine sense, seemingly searching for something, but found nothing.
“It must be the emergence of a supreme metal attribute treasure causing this situation,” said Master Withered Wood, the sect leader, sharing his conclusion.
The other elders, hearing this, breathed heavily.
A supreme metal attribute treasure emerging?
Unfortunately, they looked around but couldn’t find it.
Meanwhile, on Seven Colors Peak, Jiang Lingsu hurried to Qi Yuan’s courtyard and shouted, “Senior brother, something’s wrong!”
Qi Yuan woke up slowly, rubbing his sleepy eyes. “What’s wrong?”
“Your pet, that kitchen knife, has gained sentience.”
“Huh?” Qi Yuan was stunned for a moment. “Oh, I see.”
The knife had already gained sentience, so this wasn’t surprising, was it?
What was there to be alarmed about?
He was about to go back to sleep.
Seeing Qi Yuan so calm, Jiang Lingsu was confused.
She had noticed that the Shinguang Sect seemed to have a supreme metal attribute treasure appearing, causing all the metal attribute treasures to go wild.
Seeing her senior brother sleeping, she tried to scare him.
Unexpectedly, it didn’t work at all.
She was puzzled. “Senior brother, you should go check it out. Your pet and other magical tools are dancing in the air!”
Qi Yuan then seriously looked at the distant sky.
He was stunned.
In the sky, countless magical tools and some random objects were flying around.
Some cultivators were chasing their tools, being toyed with by their own magical tools.
Qi Yuan saw his knife among them.
The knife was sitting on an alchemy furnace, bouncing around.
Seeing Qi Yuan’s reaction, Jiang Lingsu was pleased. “Senior brother, see, your knife has gone crazy.”
Qi Yuan looked at Jiang Lingsu and said, “It’s better than your straw hut collapsing.”
He often teased her, but sometimes he needed to provoke her a bit to leave a lasting impression.
Jiang Lingsu, hearing this, was furious, hands on her hips, chest heaving.
Indeed, due to the metal attribute riot, her stabilizing magical tool, the Mountain-Fixing Rod, flew away, causing her straw hut to collapse.
Qi Yuan laughed even more happily. “No place to sleep? There’s always a bench in my room for junior sister.”
“Is that how senior brother takes care of junior sister?”
“I’ll put some dry grass on the bench for junior sister.”
Qi Yuan and Jiang Lingsu bickered a bit more.
Qi Yuan slowly walked down the mountain.
“Wow, I didn’t expect to cause such a mess just by sleeping.”
He looked at his hand.
He felt that there seemed to be a touch of golden blood flowing inside.
After completing the Five Elements, he received the ancestors’ gifts.
His Qi Refining had changed.
The Five Elements energy replaced his ordinary Qi Refining.
Now, the first to be completed was gold.
The other four were also transitioning.
“Does this mean there will be four more disturbances in the Shinguang Sect in the future?”
Qi Yuan felt a bit guilty.
He looked at the sky, filled with all kinds of strange objects.
Some were highly embarrassing for the cultivators.
For example, golden underwear and Mr. Jiao.
Those items had no owners chasing them.
Qi Yuan appeared among the crowd.
Many noticed him immediately.
Now, the chief disciples of the major peaks of the Shinguang Sect were out, only Qi Yuan remained.
“Greetings, senior brother!”
“Senior brother, are you here to find your pet? I saw your knife, it’s on the alchemy furnace.”
“The alchemy furnace is over there!”
Everyone looked, and somehow, the knife had landed not far from Qi Yuan.
“So bold, sneaking out while I’m asleep.” Qi Yuan glanced at the knife and then at the other flying tools.
For some reason, he had a feeling.
If he wanted, he could secretly sabotage these tools.
Could it be that after completing the Five Elements, he gained control over metal?
Although not complete control, and the higher the grade of the tool, the less effective the sabotage.
But it was already terrifying.
In battle, moments are critical.
If one’s relied-upon tools suddenly malfunction, the impact is enormous.
Pushing this thought aside, Qi Yuan called out, “Knife, come back!”
The knife hesitated.
It wanted to return but was afraid of being exposed, so it stayed still.
The surrounding junior brothers and sisters chuckled, “Senior brother, your pet knife is also affected by the metal attribute and is out of control.
Wait until the riot subsides to find it.
Even the elders couldn’t retrieve their tools.”
Ignoring them, Qi Yuan walked straight to his kitchen knife.
The junior brothers and sisters shook their heads.
They said nothing more.
It was no secret that senior brother had some odd quirks.
Let him be.
Even if he couldn’t catch the knife, it wouldn’t matter much, just some extra effort.
Under everyone’s watchful eyes, Qi Yuan walked to the knife, muttering, extending his hand.
“Disobedient, you’re grounded for three days.”
He grabbed the knife.
In an instant, time seemed to freeze.
All the flying magical tools stopped and returned to their owners.
No one paid attention to Qi Yuan.
Those who did thought it was a coincidence.
“Is it over?”
“My iron hand, you’re back!”
“My sword, my sharp sword!”
Everyone was thrilled to have their treasures back.
Some were annoyed.
“Don’t come near me! I don’t know you!”
“You’ve got the wrong person, I’m not your owner!”
These statements drew attention.
Especially the elder who owned Mr. Jiao, making some disciples gulp.
No wonder it was made of innate fire iron.
Some were happy, others were sad.
Suddenly, someone exclaimed, “My magical tool got stronger!”
“My sword’s grade increased!”
Everyone found that their tools had strengthened after the riot.
The elder who had kicked away Mr. Jiao secretly used a spell to retrieve it.
The chaos in the Shinguang Sect temporarily subsided, but the disturbance continued.
Qi Yuan sneaked back to the peak.
Meanwhile, Dong Xian, holding his Xuantian Treasure Ruler, asked curiously, “Old Master, what’s going on?”
A hoarse voice transmitted, “It could be a supreme metal attribute treasure, or... hmm, the second possibility is impossible, no need to mention it.”
Dong Xian was puzzled.
“Where’s the metal attribute treasure?” He eagerly asked.
He wanted to obtain it.
“If I’m not mistaken, it’s... the kitchen knife in Qi Yuan’s hand.”
“What?” Dong Xian was stunned.
The kitchen knife in senior brother Qi Yuan’s hand was a supreme metal attribute treasure.
“That knife is extraordinary. A Qi Refining cultivator holding it could kill a Foundation Establishment cultivator.
A Foundation Establishment cultivator could kill a late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator, even...” The old master sighed.
Such treasures are rare, unexpected in this remote area of the Dashang Kingdom.
Dong Xian’s eyes lit up. “It’s that powerful?”
Doesn’t this mean if he seeks senior brother Qi Yuan’s help, his chances in the dragon-seizing contest increase significantly?
But senior brother Qi Yuan is not easily moved.
He’s only obsessed with games.
Games? Dong Xian considered giving his cherished, rare, banned game to senior brother Qi Yuan to strengthen their bond.
It’s a limited edition!
Forbidden!
Not available on the market!
“When I become the crown prince, who needs games, real life is better!”
Dong Xian gritted his teeth, deciding to find time to give the game to senior brother Qi Yuan to build rapport.
For the dragon-seizing contest, he’d use other valuable things to win him over!
