1122 Heading to the Great Light Temple
“Have you all gained complete control over the demons?” Lin Feng looked at the ten Demon Kings in front of him and asked.

“More or less. At least, the demons in the Wilderness Mountains are basically all under control. However, there are still many demons outside the Wilderness Mountains. They are all scattered everywhere, and are very difficult to control,” the Ancestral Fire Dragon replied cautiously.

“It’s fine. There are already enough demons in the Wilderness Mountains. There’s still some time before the Banquet of Light. Go back and prepare properly. When the time comes, you must give the Great Light Temple an unexpected surprise.”

The many Demon Kings’ hearts skipped a beat. As expected, the thing they were most worried about would happen. Lin Feng was going to attack the Great Light Temple. However, that was the Great Light Temple, presided over by Holy Monk Zen Dragon. That was a Nascent Soul Immortal, a supreme entity in the Immortal Land.

“Master, that Holy Monk Zen Dragon…”

“Zen Dragon? Don’t worry, go ahead and attack when the time comes. It would be best if Zen Dragon intervenes. I’m more worried that he won’t.”

Hearing Lin Feng’s confident words, the various Demon Kings were also slightly relieved. So what if Holy Monk Zen Dragon was a Nascent Soul Immortal? The various capabilities of this mysterious master in front of them were no longer inferior to Nascent Soul Immortals.

Hence, the ten Demon Kings quickly left the Fire Cloud Sect.

…

Time passed in the blink of an eye. As the time of the Banquet of Light approached, the entire Fire Cloud Sect seemed to have fallen silent. The atmosphere was even a little oppressive.

There was no other reason. Every Banquet of Light was a grand event for the orthodox sects, but to a declining sect like the Fire Cloud Sect, it was out-and-out torture, and even humiliation.

However, they had no choice but to attend this Banquet of Light.

“Alas, Sect Master has yet to exit seclusion. Looks like he hasn’t completed the cultivation techniques yet.”

“That’s right. Sect Master hasn’t completed the cultivation techniques, so he can’t cultivate the Golden Core. However, the Banquet of Light is about to begin, so we have no choice but to go.”

“As usual, three elders will lead a team to the Banquet of Light this time. They will just bring three disciples.”

 

“Mu Jingjing will definitely go, but what about the Daoist Prodigy?”
“The Daoist Prodigy is still young. He’s only at the third level of Aura Cultivation. It’s useless to bring him along. He’ll only embarrass himself. Even if we say that he’s a Daoist Prodigy, who would believe us?”

“Not bad, not bad. I think we should lie low for the time being. We’ll bring the Daoist Prodigy to the next Banquet of Light.”

Just as the elders finished their discussion, Lin Feng came to the hall.

“Elders, I would like to attend the Banquet of Light.” Lin Feng explained his purpose of visit directly.

“Go to the Banquet of Light? No, no. You’re not strong enough yet. You won’t be of much help to the sect even if you go to the Banquet of Light.”

“Not bad, not bad. There’s no point in going to this Banquet of Light. Why don’t you focus on cultivating in the sect?”

Lin Feng did not say anything, and unleashed a trace of aura directly.

Boom.

A vast and majestic aura erupted instantly, incomparably wild.

“This… This is Foundation Establishment?”

“Heavens, Foundation Establishment. The Daoist Prodigy has reached the Foundation Establishment realm?”

“I don’t remember the Daoist Prodigy applying for any Foundation Establishment items. How did he reach Foundation Establishment?”

“Foundation Establishment is critical. Originally, the sect was collecting top-notch Foundation Establishment treasures everywhere, hoping to help the Daoist Prodigy establish his foundation in the future. How foolish. How could the Daoist Prodigy establish his foundation so casually?”

The many elders were first pleasantly surprised, then filled with regret. It could not be easier for Lin Feng to establish his foundation. However, if he casually established his foundation and lost his chance for a deep foundation, how could he perfect his cultivation technique and attain the Golden Core realm in the future?

Right now, the entire sect regarded Daoist Prodigy Lin Feng as the only hope for the sect’s revival.

“Uh… I didn’t use any external items. I just established my foundation naturally,” Lin Feng explained with a smile.

However, this explanation made the entire hall fall silent.

“What did you say? You succeeded in establishing the foundation naturally, without relying on any external items?”

“Impossible. How can Foundation Establishment not rely on external items?”

“Successfully establishing a foundation without relying on external items is only possible in ancient legends. Once one establishes their foundation, they will be a Foundation Establishment cultivator with the strongest foundation in the world.”

“Indeed, the foundation he established is so profound that it’s simply incredible. It’s completely natural. As expected of the Daoist Prodigy!”

Some elders immediately checked, but with Lin Feng’s capability, he only had to reveal his cultivation level as a novice Foundation Establishment cultivator. Naturally, these elders could only check his Foundation Establishment cultivation level.

However, the foundation behind it could not be wrong.

All the elders were overjoyed. This was a natural foundation establishment. Only cultivators from the ancient era could do it. Even though this was very shocking, when they thought about how Lin Feng was a Daoist Prodigy, the elders accepted it.

A Daoist Prodigy. Even the Great Light Temple and the Infernal Sun Sect, the most powerful factions in the world, did not have a Daoist Prodigy. The Daoist Prodigy was miraculous in the legends, but how could the elders of the Fire Cloud Sect know how miraculous a Daoist Prodigy was?

Hence, the elders only thought that Lin Feng naturally established his foundation because the Daoist Prodigy’s Intrinsic Daoist Physique was that miraculous.

“Haha, the Daoist Prodigy has successfully established his foundation. Even at the Banquet of Light, Foundation Establishment is already considered the top cultivation level. No matter how strong those disciples are, they’re only at the Foundation Establishment level. At the Banquet of Light, the Daoist Prodigy will definitely be able to shine and save the face of our Fire Cloud Sect.”

“That’s right. Our Fire Cloud Sect has been declined to this extent, and many sects are a little tempted. With the Daoist Prodigy stepping forward for the Banquet of Light this time, it’s a good opportunity to dispel those sects’ inappropriate ideas. Even if we have declined, we still have enough to beat them. Our Fire Cloud Sect is still a major orthodox sect. Our foundation is still intact, and we have a successor!”

“I agree to let Daoist Prodigy attend the Banquet of Light.”

One after another, many elders agreed to the Daoist Prodigy attending the Banquet of Light.

In the end, the elders also made the decision. This time, the team was even led by the three major elders, the Imparting Elder, the Law Enforcement Elder, and the Artifact Refinement Elder. These were the three strongest elders among the many elders of the Fire Cloud Sect. They were clearly determined to do the sect proud at the Banquet of Light this time.

Moreover, they had brought most of the disciples of the Fire Cloud Sect. With Lin Feng around, they did not have to worry about losing all their dignity at the Banquet of Light. Hence, they naturally had to bring more disciples to broaden their horizons, and also increase the cohesion of the disciples of the sect.

Lin Feng naturally had no objections to this. He just needed the Fire Cloud Sect to bring him there.

As for what would happen after he went, Lin Feng did not mind helping the Fire Cloud Sect out. After all, he was still a disciple of the Fire Cloud Sect. It was not a big deal to let the Fire Cloud Sect have a turn to shine.

…

Three days later, the Fire Cloud Sect set off.

The Fire Cloud Sect reared a few immortal cranes. Although they were called immortal cranes, they were actually demons. They were only demons at the Aura Cultivation level, but it was not a problem for them to carry the people of the Fire Cloud Sect to the Great Light Temple.

Lin Feng sat upright behind the Imparting Elder. The other disciples also cast their gazes at Lin Feng frequently.

The news had spread all over. Lin Feng, the Daoist Prodigy of the Fire Cloud Sect, had actually already succeeded in establishing his foundation.

It had to be known that Lin Feng had only been in the Fire Cloud Sect for an entire month.

This was especially the case for the Chief Disciple, Mu Jingjing. Her gaze was incomparably complicated. She was bent on revitalizing the sect. In the end, after much difficulty, she had finally attained consummation of the tenth level of Aura Cultivation. Yet her youngest junior brother had succeeded in Foundation Establishment by accident…

“Is the Intrinsic Daoist Physique really that miraculous?”

Even Mu Jingjing was a little doubtful. He had successfully established his foundation in a month. Even in all the recorded texts, one probably would not be able to find a genius comparable to Lin Feng.

Lin Feng grinned. It did not matter if they were suspicious or happy.

As long as he arrived at the Great Light Temple, the Fire Cloud Sect would become a thing of the past. He would either succeed or fail. Lin Feng was already prepared.
