Chapter 466: Misfortune
While Li Futian was muttering to himself, the sunny young man took a few steps back.
However, something strange happened.
For some reason, he suddenly tripped on flat ground and fell face forward.
Seeing this, the spectators couldn’t help but be shocked.
It was normal for mortals to trip and fall.
However, cultivators were different.
Even meridian awakening realm cultivators had enough body control to avoid tripping and falling.
Unexpectedly, the sunny ghost cultivator, a cultivator in the first level of the reincarnation realm had stupidly tripped and fell!
"This..." Someone gasped.
"That fellow Daoist doesn’t look injured. Why did he suddenly trip and fall?"
"It’s too strange."
However, stranger things were yet to come.
Although the fall was embarrassing, the sunny man was in the reincarnation realm and such a fall was not enough to injure him.
After falling, he collected himself and tried to stand up.
Unexpectedly, when he tried to stand up, he accidentally stepped on the front hem of his clothes and fell again.
Like the previous fall, this fall couldn’t injure the sunny cultivator but his face turned red from his embarrassment.
"Fellow Daoist, do you need help?" Li Futian asked with a dazzling smile on his lips.
Hearing this, the sunny cultivator shuddered.
’Do I dare to accept help from you? If I dare, who knows how I will end up.’ The man thought.
Without saying a word in reply, the sunny cultivator gritted his teeth and once again tried to stand up.
A moment later, the person stepped on his back hem and fell backwards.
At this point, none of the spectators could continue laughing at the sunny cultivator.
"This..., what’s going on?" Someone asked.
"Did he lose the ability to control his body?"
"It could be. Maybe fellow Daoist Li has done something to him."
"I have heard of something similar but..."
"But?" Someone asked a little impatiently.
"I have heard that immortal celestial masters can break a person’s luck causing them to encounter unreasonable misfortunes. Maybe fellow Daoist Li has done such a thing."
"How that be possible?"
"This fellow Daoist is right. Breaking someone’s luck is not an easy thing. Even immortal celestial masters have to work hard to achieve it. How can a cultivator in the first level of the reincarnation realm achieve it?"
"If that fellow Daoist is not encountering an unreasonable misfortune, how can you explain what is happening?"
When the surrounding spectators heard that, they didn’t know how to argue.
Indeed, the situation on the martial stage was quite strange.
Even if they didn’t want to believe it, they had to accept that a reincarnation realm celestial master may have practised a way to break other people’s luck.
"This kind of person is too dangerous." Someone said with a wary look in his eyes.
"Mmmm." Another nodded.
Many cultivators echoed the sentiment and a subtle feeling enveloped the arena.
As cultivators, they struggled against the heavens and were not afraid of fighting other cultivators.
However, a small number of cultivators had strange abilities that made everyone wary.
After all, everyone knew how to fight a swordsman, spearsman, or other such cultivators.
Even if the opponent was several times more powerful, the way to fight them was known.
Unfortunately, these methods were ineffective against people like Li Futian.
Unless one used thunderous force to kill them before they had a chance to act, a protracted fight would more often than not lead to disastrous consequences.
"What have you done to me?" The sunny man roared in anger and fear.
Unfortunately, even talking had now become a dangerous undertaking.
When he was talking, he accidentally bit his tongue and a line of blood appeared at the edge of his mouth.
"Fellow Daoist, please talk slowly." Li Futian said with a concerned look on his face but his eyes were filled with schadenfreude.
"Fellow Daoist, do you want to continue fighting?"
"Fighting..." The sunny man muttered and a flash of disbelief appeared in his eyes.
In the current situation, how could he think of fighting?
Even if he thought of it, could he have the guts to continue fighting such a ruthless celestial master?
Thinking of this, the sunny man shivered and once again regretted coming to the stage.
’I have a lot of good things in my hands. With them, I can find a celestial master to help me." The sunny man thought.
With that thought, the sunny man didn’t continue to waste time with Li Futian.
He quickly surrendered and habitually jumped down from the stage.
Unexpectedly, he triggered the stage’s defensive formation and was directly counterattacked.
By the time the counterattack stopped, the sunny man was a bloody mess and his eyes were filled with despair.
’Can it be that I can no longer do anything without putting myself in danger?’ He wondered and a record of a terrifying future played in his mind.
From previous experience, he knew that talking and even walking had now become dangerous activities.
Thinking along the same lines, he felt that cultivating or using his cultivation would also be dangerous.
In that case, wouldn’t he have to hide in his cave house and do nothing until his lifespan was exhausted?
When he thought of this, the sunny man couldn’t help but be afraid.
Although staying in his cave house sounded safe, it actually wasn’t.
He felt that misfortune would still find him even if he hid in the cave house.
Most importantly, he knew a few things about this kind of situation.
At first, the trivial accidents were more embarrassing than life-threatening.
However, the sunny man knew that the nature of the accidents would gradually change.
The embarrassing things would become fatal and surviving under such conditions would become impossible.
"Before it comes to that, I have to find a celestial master." The sunny man muttered and hurriedly walked away from Li Futian’s stage.
’Seeing this, Li Futian smiled but his expression soon turned solemn.
’It seems I am in more trouble than I anticipated.’ He thought and then turned towards the main stage.
"Brother Yu, brother Jiang, I am counting on you." He said and then sat cross-legged to meditate.
.....
On the first martial stage, Jiang Yue sighed.
Like before, he received a message about Li Futian’s fight and the silver-haired illusion master couldn’t help but worry.
"Brother Li, this is a big problem." Jiang Yue muttered.
No matter where, tall trees attracted the wind and nails that stuck out were hammered down.
This time, Li Futian’s methods attracted a lot of attention.
On the bright side, the attention was good for Li Futian’s reputation.
However, the brighter the light, the darker the shadow.
In the eyes of many, Li Futian had become a dangerous unknown variable.
Under such a mentality, it was very likely that some people would find ways to openly and discreetly deal with Li Futian.
Most importantly, there was also the Spirit Eye world and other worlds that were famous for celestial masters.
Although he didn’t know how they would perceive Li Futian’s methods, Jiang Yue had a bad premonition.
He was especially worried because Li Futian’s soul was still damaged.
If interested parties discovered this titbit, they wouldn’t need to work hard to deal with Li Futian.
"Sworn brother, are you determined to cause trouble and then hide behind me and Azhen?" Jiang Yue muttered in a helpless voice but he wasn’t angry.
He and Yu Nianzhen had already expected that a lot of trouble would arise from the one hundred years of competition.
However, they weren’t afraid of this trouble.
More than going out of their way to avoid trouble, the two wanted the Cangxing people to gain confidence, courage, and motivation.
Jiang Yue and Yu Nianzhen didn’t want the Cangxing people to live in fear of more powerful worlds.
Although the Cangxing mountain was not in a position to deal with other world mountains, the Cangxing people couldn’t be allowed to feel inferior to foreign cultivators.
If the Cangxing people developed an inferiority complex, the Cangxing mountain would fail to gain a foothold in the Reincarnation World.
When that happened, the current and future generations of Cangxing people could only wait to be bullied.
After thinking about it, Jiang Yue and Yu Nianzhen felt it was necessary to cultivate the courage of the Cangxing people.
In this way, the Cangxing cultivators would gain a stronger mentality and their cultivation would advance more smoothly.
Of course, what the two wanted to see was true courage and justified confidence.
If a Cangxing cultivator was blindly arrogant and recklessly caused trouble for the Cangxing mountain, Jiang Yue and Nianzhen had thought of ways to deal with them.
Fortunately, none of the Cangxing cultivators had done unreasonable things since the event started.
However, Jiang Yue felt it was only a matter of time.
After all, everyone had their personality and goals.
Sooner rather than later, someone would cause trouble and Jiang Yue would not miss the opportunity to kill the chicken to warn the monkeys.
