Chapter 1816: Displaying Strength, Shocking the Battlefield (Part 1)

“Kekekeke! I’d like to see how this brat plans to escape this predicament…”

As Jiang Chengxuan was besieged by the synchronized assault of three formidable Profound Immortals, the atmosphere grew increasingly tense. Everyone present was filled with curiosity—was he truly as powerful as he seemed, or just a conceited upstart about to fall under this relentless offensive?

Among the spectators, the Grand Immortal Youxing appeared the most exhilarated. He knew Jiang Chengxuan possessed some degree of strength—after all, the young man had defeated two elders from his Youxing Immortal Sect. But this situation was far more perilous than anything Jiang had faced before. What methods could this mysterious youth possibly have left?

In the blink of an eye, Youxing cast a glance toward Elder Yunshi, only to see the latter’s gaze calm and unshaken, as if oblivious to the deadly trap closing in on Jiang Chengxuan. This serenity stirred unease in Youxing’s heart. Yet in that very moment, the battle on the field escalated to a climax.

The combined onslaught of Sword-Cracking Venerable, Phantomshade Venerable, and Ten-Thousand-Ghost Demon Venerable sealed off every avenue of escape. In an instant, their terrifying auras erupted with force approaching that of Golden Immortals.

“Fellow Daoist Jiang… you mustn’t fall here!”

Even Yun Tian and Yun Di—still recovering from their injuries—were startled awake by the commotion. They focused their eyes on the battlefield, hearts clenched in silent prayer.

Though they had once witnessed Jiang Chengxuan defy the odds against the three Demon Venerables of the Wildblood Sect, they weren’t sure such a miracle could happen twice. That feat alone was already the kind of legend one could boast of for a lifetime.

“Rumble—!!”

In the blink of an eye, a violent, destructive force surged outwards. Radiant heavenly light engulfed hundreds of miles of sky. The sword that could sever star rivers came crashing down first, slicing open space itself with a chasm of void. Waves of chaotic energy surged forth with boundless fury.

Next, a pair of sky-shrouding demon claws, radiating deadly aura, tore through the air, enveloping Jiang Chengxuan entirely. The dense death energy condensed into a great river, layering the storm in an impenetrable shroud.

Following that, Ten-Thousand-Ghost Demon Venerable unfurled his soul banner. Countless ghostly wraiths howled as they tore through the chaos, locking onto Jiang Chengxuan’s aura and swarming in to devour him whole.

These three overwhelming attacks compressed Jiang Chengxuan into a narrow space where he could barely move. Even with the support of primal runes enhancing his inner world, cracks began to form throughout his realm—light flickering at the edges of each fracture.

“Scripture of Eternal Manifestation—Activate!”

Just when everyone thought Jiang Chengxuan was about to be crushed, he remained calm, whispering a single phrase.

Suddenly, a majestic golden light exploded forth from him, as if a sun had appeared from nothingness, casting brilliance across the entire battlefield.

“What?!”

“No way!”

“Is this… the power of a restriction?!”

All three of his attackers—Ten-Thousand-Ghost Demon Venerable, Sword-Cracking Venerable, and Phantomshade Venerable—were stunned, exclaiming in disbelief. From that golden light, they could feel a fearsome restrictive force erupting.

In a flash, the light engulfed everything. Their divine powers and formidable techniques were instantly dulled as if mired in quicksand. Even the devastating aftermath of their clash—the space-tearing storms and violent energy—was slowly quelled by that holy force, fading into silence.

And this was only the beginning.

As the sacred golden light grew more intense, Jiang Chengxuan’s inner world suddenly solidified. Golden runes appeared on the borders of his realm, forming a scripture that shimmered with divine mystery—like tightly interlocked golden scales that completely sealed out the raging power.

Neither the sword-light from Sword-Cracking Venerable, the death-claws of Phantomshade, nor the soul-devouring ghosts of Ten-Thousand-Ghost Demon Venerable could penetrate even a fraction of that barrier. The river of sword-light was forcefully repelled. The deadly storm was shredded by the golden brilliance. Countless wraiths, in the face of this holy radiance, were burned to ashes with anguished wails.

This scene left everyone wide-eyed in disbelief, their faces frozen in shock.

Even Grand Immortal Youxing and the Elder of Sword, Tianjian, furrowed their brows, expressions growing sharper.

“Good! Good!”

Yun Tian and Yun Di couldn’t help but cheer loudly, relief flooding their faces.

“Heh…”

Even Elder Yunshi quietly sighed in satisfaction, a rare smile tugging at his lips.

Though he had long known, based on Jiang Chengxuan’s past feats, that the youth’s strength was extraordinary—far beyond that of ordinary immortals—this was the first time he had witnessed Jiang’s combat prowess firsthand. And now, having personally sensed that overwhelming power, he could finally rest easy.

This restrictive force alone was already approaching the threshold of a Golden Immortal. Its might was truly terrifying.

“It’s my turn now—be suppressed!”

At that very moment, the tides of battle reversed. Bathed in radiant gold, Jiang Chengxuan shattered the siege with unshakable dominance, neutralizing what had appeared to be a certain-death trap. Without hesitation, he struck back with overwhelming force, launching a new offensive while his three stunned opponents were still reeling.
