Chapter 1813: After the First Round of Battle, A Challenge to All (Part 2)
In the next moment, under the astonished gaze of his opponent, the Beast-Covered Grandmaster, Proud Sword Venerable unleashed his sword with unmatched force. Suddenly, a crimson galaxy flickered through the universe!
A red light spread across the entire area, hundreds of miles around, devouring everything in its path. Countless beasts were reduced to dust within this blinding glow!
âItâs over.â
As Elder Tianjianâs voice murmured softly, Proud Sword Venerableâs sword struck, and the towering beast beneath the Beast-Covered Demon Lord collapsed. The demon lord himself suffered a backlash, spitting out a mouthful of blood and kneeling on the ground, his face ashen.
In that critical moment, had Proud Sword Venerable not been cautious of the consequences, this sword might have directly slain the Beast-Covered Demon Lord.
âTsk tsk, what a good sword.â
Seeing this, Jiang Chengxuan couldnât help but nod, admiring the power of Proud Sword Venerableâs secret technique. Although, on the day they sparred, Proud Sword Venerable had chosen to concede without using this technique.
âUh⊠I have not failed you!â
As the crimson galaxy gradually dissipated, Proud Sword Venerable returned to Elder Tianjianâs side, bowing respectfully.
At this, Elder Tianjian finally showed a rare smile and nodded, saying, âNot bad.â
Those simple words filled Proud Sword Venerable with excitement. He glanced around, a satisfied expression on his face.
His gaze eventually fell on Jiang Chengxuan, and the two exchanged a brief nodâan acknowledgment of each other.
âUseless!â
Finally, with the enraged curse of the Blood Demon Immortal, the Beast-Covered Demon Lord fell like a dead man, bringing the first round of the competition to a close.
In the vast emptiness, only the residual energy still trembled, and everything fell into a moment of deep silence.
No one had expected that, after this first round, all the factions would have identical results.
Yuntian of the Cloudveil Immortal Sect won one point, the elder of the Ghostwalk Sect earned one point, the Berserker Blade Demon Lord won one point, and Proud Sword Venerable of the Heaven Sword Sect earned one point.
As a result, the points were perfectly even, meaning the competition had essentially resulted in a draw.
If one were to say there was a slight advantage, it would be that Proud Sword Venerable had won more cleanly, maintaining some fighting strength, giving the Heaven Sword Sect a minor edge.
At this moment, apart from the four Golden Immortals and Proud Sword Venerable, the only other participant with any remaining strength was a single individual.
However, amidst the silence, Jiang Chengxuan subtly transmitted a message to Elder Yunshi. Upon hearing it, the elderâs eyes widened in surprise, and he nodded slightly in agreement.
Then, Jiang Chengxuan stepped into the void and made his way to the center of the four factions, drawing all attention toward him.
âEveryone, I have an idea. I wonder if it can be fulfilled.â
Facing the sharp gazes of everyone, including the two Golden Immortals, Jiang Chengxuanâs expression remained calm as he suddenly smiled.
This unexpected statement left the others puzzled, wondering if Jiang Chengxuan was about to challenge someone.
âJie jie jieâŠâ
âWell, if thatâs the case, you should tell us.â
Among all present, it was the Ghostwalk Grandmaster who seemed most curious, taking the lead in responding.
With a smile, Jiang Chengxuan made a statement that sent shockwaves through all the immortal sects, causing fierce and piercing gazes to pierce through him!
âI wish to challenge the three other great immortal sects at once. I wonder if this is acceptable?â
This was the earth-shattering decision Jiang Chengxuan had made after discussing it with Elder Yunshi!
The words stunned everyone present, including the Golden Immortals. Both the Ghostwalk Grandmaster and Elder Tianjian exchanged surprised looks, their hearts in turmoil.
To challenge all three major immortal sects at once? To take on three opponents of the same cultivation level? This young man must have lost his mind!
Only the Blood Demon Immortal and the Berserker Blade Demon Lord showed a sinister glint in their eyes, as if recalling some ominous memories.
âI wish to challenge the three great immortal sects at once. Is this feasible?â
Silence hung over the entire venue for an extended moment. Only when Jiang Chengxuan repeated his challenge did the stillness finally break.
âOld Yunshi, is this also your idea?â
At this point, Elder Tianjianâs gaze sharpened, but he did not address Jiang Chengxuan directly. Instead, he turned to Elder Yunshi.
It was then that everyone remembered Jiang Chengxuan was from the Cloudveil Immortal Sect.
âHm.â
Elder Yunshi calmly nodded in response to the questioning gazes, then addressed the assembled immortals with a serious tone:
âThis is not my idea, but I am willing to support it.â
âAccording to the rules of the competition, if you win, each of you will earn one point, and the Cloudveil Immortal Sect will lose three points!â
This statement made it clear that Elder Yunshi had sanctioned Jiang Chengxuanâs challenge and that his support would be behind it. It once again threw the entire assembly into confusion.
Apart from the Blood Demon Immortal and his companions, many who were unfamiliar with Jiang Chengxuan looked at him with increasing interest, speculating on his hidden strength.
This person doesnât look like someone from the Cloudveil Immortal Sect⊠What is it about him that makes Elder Yunshi trust him so much?
Could he really have the ability to suppress three opponents of the same cultivation level?
After all, battles between cultivators of the same level were exceedingly dangerous. The previous four matches had proven this point perfectly.
Every battle had resulted in heavy losses, with no exceptions!
Under such circumstances, Jiang Chengxuanâs attempt to take on three opponents at once seemed like a ridiculous fantasy.
âOh? So, youâre placing all your bets on this young man.â
The Ghostwalk Grandmaster, with an enigmatic expression, spoke up. Though he knew Jiang Chengxuan had defeated two of his Grand Elders, he did not consider him overly formidable.
Now, with Jiang Chengxuan proposing such a challenge, the Ghostwalk Grandmaster saw it as a potential opportunity for revenge.
âSince youâre so confident, our Heaven Sword Sect will naturally accept.â
After a moment of silence, Elder Tianjian finally spoke, his voice steady and resolute.
Regardless of whether Jiang Chengxuan truly possessed such ability, to refuse such a challenge would be an admission of fear.
For Elder Tianjian, weakness was the greatest disgrace.
âBlood Demon, are you perhaps afraid?â
Seeing that the Ghostwalk Grandmaster and Elder Tianjian had both agreed, Elder Yunshi turned his gaze toward the Blood Demon Immortal, a mocking glint in his eyes as he asked.
This question caused all eyes to shift toward the Blood Demon Immortal and his companions, amplifying the tension on their faces.
Without hesitation, the Blood Demon Immortal and the three Demon Lords locked eyes with Jiang Chengxuan. He too met their gaze with a confident smile, as if provoking them.
Both Jiang Chengxuan and Elder Yunshi knew that the ones most aware of his battle prowess were the Blood Demon Immortal and his group.
Thus, they were the most wary of Jiang Chengxuanâs challenge, contemplating the risks of defeat.
If they lost, the Cloudveil Immortal Sect would immediately gain four points and could potentially seize the ultimate victory, securing the majority of the Golden Immortal insights.
For the Blood Demon Immortal and the Desolate Blood Sect, who had long been enemies of the Cloudveil Immortal Sect, such an outcome was unacceptable.
âHehâŠâ
However, despite Elder Yunshiâs mocking gaze and the Ghostwalk Grandmaster and Elder Tianjianâs questioning looks, the Blood Demon Immortal could not openly express his fears.
âHmph! Who is afraid? Since this young man seeks death, I shall grant him his wish!â
After a moment of silence, the Blood Demon Immortal growled with murderous intent.
âGood! Thank you all for your cooperation! Jiang will be forever grateful!â
Jiang Chengxuanâs smile widened, and he cupped his hands in gratitude toward the three sects.
It was as if this impossible battle was already in the bag, easily within his reach.
âBe careful, his strength⊠is not to be underestimated.â
At this moment, within the Heaven Sword Sectâs ranks, Proud Sword Venerableâs expression turned serious as he warned his comrades.
Having sparred with Jiang Chengxuan himself, he knew full well the mystery and power behind this young man.
