After that,
As it turned out, Niantian Daoren had been living in seclusion for many years, and his Niantian Gambling Formation had not been activated for a long time.
Niantian Daoren had once declared that no one in the current Sacred Light
If he were to open it again, it would have to be because of an event momentous enough to shape the future of the Sacred Light Galaxy.
Now that Niantian Daoren had resurfaced, it had to be because of this Strongest
The Niantian Gambling Formation would open once more after its long hiatus, and very likely for the sake of these juniors.
Most importantly, what Chu Feng and the others were about to do could very well become the very event Niantian Daoren had spoken of.
That was precisely why Long Xiaoxiao and the others were so excited.
And after hearing their account, even Chu Feng found himself greatly anticipating the opening of the Niantian Gambling Formation.
While they were still chatting, a purple radiance suddenly descended from the sky.
The purple light surged through the air like water, racing at tremendous speed.
It was so brilliant that even the sun's glow paled in comparison.
The purple radiance swept in from the north, and in the blink of an eye it blanketed the sky directly above them. As far as the eye could see, the entire sky was consumed by that purple light.
The violet heavens before them were so magnificent that even these battle-hardened cultivators, who had witnessed countless spectacles, felt their spirits soar, marveling at the sight.
"It's opening already?"
Seeing the purple radiance, Long Xiaoxiao and the others, who had already been excited, grew even more thrilled.
From their earlier explanation, Chu Feng already knew that the purple light was the signal that Niantian Daoren's Niantian Gambling Formation was opening.
With the formation activating, the banquet had no choice but to be cut short. Chu Feng and the others set off at once, heading in the direction of the Niantian Gambling Formation.
Niantian Daoren's reputation preceded him, and combined with the declaration he had made before his last period of secluded cultivation, everyone understood that the reopening of the Niantian Gambling Formation meant the momentous event he had foretold was at hand.
No one wanted to miss this opportunity.
Nearly everyone who witnessed the signal raced toward the location where the Niantian Gambling Formation had opened.
The place where the formation had manifested was actually some distance from where Chu Feng and the others had been staying.
By the time they arrived, a large number of people had already gathered there, and still more were streaming in.
In moments, the vast icy plain was swarming with cultivators.
They hovered in the sky like dense clouds of ants, packed together as far as one could see.
Within the Sacred Light Galaxy, virtually every faction of any standing — the Sacred Light Clan aside — had shown up.
But Chu Feng had no interest in observing the onlookers. His gaze had already been utterly captivated by what was called the Niantian Gambling Formation.
The Niantian Gambling Formation had manifested over the snow-covered plain.
It had no physical form — it was composed entirely of runic symbols woven together into a grand formation.
However, those runes were peculiar. They radiated a purple glow, and without looking closely, one might mistake the entire formation for nothing more than a faint purple haze drifting over the white expanse below.
