Chapter 1225: Return to the Alchemy League and Seeking Another Breakthrough, Part 2

Editor: Henyee Translations

The familiar sight of the Alchemy League remained as grand and magnificent as ever. The thousands of years that had passed had not left a mark on the Wanxing Celestial Domain’s Alchemy League.

“Finally back again…”

Feeling the serene and familiar atmosphere, Jiang Chengxuan murmured to himself. He then eagerly transformed into a beam of light and headed toward the center of the Alchemy League.

As he moved, he noticed an increasing number of distinguished alchemists, their presence becoming more sparse as he approached his destination. Soon, his personal cave residence came into view.

Coincidentally, several familiar figures were just about to leave when they saw Jiang Chengxuan approaching. Their faces lit up with excitement and joy, waving at him.

“Chengxuan! You’re really back!”

...

These people were none other than Lan Yu and their companions, friends Jiang Chengxuan had made after passing the Alchemy League’s entrance trials together.

“Everyone, it’s good to see you all again!”

Reunited with old friends, Jiang Chengxuan was equally delighted. He landed in front of them, clasped his hands in greeting, and smiled.

“Chengxuan, it’s great to see you!”

“We’ve all missed you during your absence!”

Lan Yu and the others surrounded him, their faces beaming with happiness. They had come today to check if Jiang Chengxuan had returned and, by chance, ran into him. It was truly a fortunate encounter.

“Lan Yu, congratulations on becoming an Immortal Alchemist! That’s wonderful news!”

Jiang Chengxuan keenly noticed the change in Lan Yu’s badge, indicating his promotion to Immortal Alchemist, and congratulated him.

Lan Yu’s face beamed even brighter as he smiled and said, “It’s a small achievement, thanks to your guidance, Chengxuan.”

During Jiang Chengxuan’s years of traveling, his friends had not been idle. They worked hard to follow his example, leading to such fruitful results. Besides Lan Yu, the others had also made significant progress, some just a step away from becoming Immortal Alchemists.

“Haha, this is a little gift from my travels, a token to celebrate your breakthrough. Please accept it.”

Generously, Jiang Chengxuan took out some rare beast materials he had obtained from Twin Sky City and distributed them among his friends. These materials, unique to the Thousand Mountains Range, were extraordinary.

Lan Yu and the others were overjoyed, gratefully accepting the gifts without hesitation. For alchemists, nothing was more valuable than high-quality alchemy materials.

“Come on in, let’s chat inside.”

After everyone accepted their gifts, Jiang Chengxuan retrieved his token and, with a flash of light, opened the restriction on his cave residence. Their eyes widened as they entered, marveling at the undiminished splendor of the celestial cave, which had retained its ethereal glow over the millennia. The various spiritual plants and celestial stones were still radiant and vibrant.

Moments later, seated around a stone table in a pavilion by the water, they poured celestial wine and began conversing. Under the curious gazes of Lan Yu and the others, Jiang Chengxuan recounted his adventures, eliciting exclamations and admiration from his friends.

From the mysterious mountains to the vast plains of Gao Huang, the encounters in the Wilderness City, and the ancient ruins—Jiang Chengxuan held nothing back, except for the details of slaying other cultivators and rescuing members of the Golden Silver Immortal Sect.

Hearing about the dangers he faced in Twin Sky City, Lan Yu and the others couldn’t help but feel a shiver of fear for him. They now understood the true value of the gifts he had given them and appreciated them even more.

“A True Immortal Dragon! Thank heavens Chengxuan, you are so powerful and skilled. Otherwise, the outcome would have been disastrous.”

“Indeed, I’ve read about True Immortal Dragons in ancient texts. They are natural rulers of the Celestial Domain. Who would have thought one would appear in such a place?”

“Your journey was truly extraordinary and inspiring!”

“Haha, but if it were any of us, we probably wouldn’t have made it back safely.”

As Jiang Chengxuan finished his story, his friends began discussing animatedly, their expressions mixed with awe, envy, and fear. Though they were accomplished alchemists, their experiences paled in comparison to Jiang Chengxuan’s adventures.

After several days of conversation, Lan Yu and his companions finally bid farewell to Jiang Chengxuan and returned to their own residences. These days had been a small respite for Jiang Chengxuan. Now, with the lingering effects of the cultivation pill from the system still in his body, he knew he had to seize the time and continue his seclusion for further cultivation.

Before doing so, however, he planned to take stock of his gains from his journey. Over the thousands of years, he had amassed countless treasures. The common celestial herbs and spiritual items were piled in a corner, while he carefully examined the most precious ones.

The first item was undoubtedly the Heaven Holding Bottle obtained from the ancient ruins. With this item, he never had to worry about running out of celestial herbs for alchemy. A few drops of the bottle’s liquid could instantly grow any herb to maturity.

Next was the mysterious skull from the same ruins. Although he hadn’t discovered its true use, it was undoubtedly extraordinary as a core treasure of an ancient sect.

Then came the materials he acquired from Twin Sky City. Having slain the Primal Crystal Lizard and the Extreme Wind Thunder Bear, their remains were his to keep. Even the majority of the True Immortal Dragon’s materials were allocated to him, including blood, scales, wings, and tail, all brimming with immense energy.

Jiang Chengxuan planned to refine these materials into protective garments and other treasures, which would significantly enhance his strength.

“So many treasures can be a bit overwhelming…”

Jiang Chengxuan murmured with a wry smile. The wealth he had accumulated was enough to support his cultivation for an indefinite period. It seemed that the search for the Haoran Immortal Sect and his wife Shen Ruyan could now be brought forward.

Perhaps after this next round of seclusion, he could officially leave the Wanxing Celestial Domain and embark on that quest. With that thought, Jiang Chengxuan set aside his distractions, stored away his treasures, and summoned the Mountain and Sea Furnace, igniting its flames to prepare more alchemical pills.

Time flew by swiftly, and in what seemed like no time, several years had passed. As the flames in the Mountain and Sea Furnace gradually died down, Jiang Chengxuan’s preparations for his seclusion were complete.

During this period, Lan Yu and his friends often visited to observe Jiang Chengxuan’s alchemy techniques and exchange experiences. Consequently, some of them were on the brink of breaking through to become Immortal Alchemists themselves, retreating to their own abodes for seclusion.

Having informed his friends of his impending long seclusion, Jiang Chengxuan’s cave residence once again became quiet. Accustomed to such rigorous cultivation, he wasted no time after storing the furnace and completing his preparations. Jiang Chengxuan immediately activated the seclusion restrictions of his cave residence.

Amidst the roaring and pulsing of the restrictions, a barrier formed, drawing in endless celestial energy as Jiang Chengxuan began his seclusion once more.
