Chapter 1867: Secluded Cultivation and Breakthrough, Everything Is Ready (Part 2)
However, when others traced the origin of the strange phenomenon and discovered that it came from the territory of the Loose Cultivator Alliance, they immediately showed expressions of realization and marvel.
Without a doubt, with two powerful figures like Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan residing there, no matter what shocking anomaly appeared, it was entirely within expectations.
âDear⊠you must succeed!â
At the same time, Shen Ruyan, who had just exited Jiang Chengxuanâs cultivation cave, had already learned that he was preparing to break through to the Golden Immortal Realm. She couldnât help but whisper softly to herself, her eyebrows tightly furrowed, her eyes filled with worry.
Clearly, no matter how confident Jiang Chengxuan appeared, no matter how certain he seemed of success, Shen Ruyan could not suppress the concern in her heart.
Still, she didnât linger too long. After casting a few more glances in his direction, she returned to her own cultivation cave and resumed her practice.
At the moment, she was only one final step away from reaching the mid-stage of the Profound Immortal Realm. With the profound resources Jiang Chengxuan had provided, she was quite confident she could achieve a breakthrough in one go.
In addition, she needed to study the rare immortal materials and mystical arts in earnest, and she already had several plans in mind regarding them.
As for the events in the outside world, Jiang Chengxuan was no longer aware of anything.
Once the formation had been fully activated, he had completely entered a state of breakthrough. Every thought and ounce of focus he possessed was now directed at a single goalâascending to the Golden Immortal Realm.
Soon, he raised his aura to its absolute peak. Behind him, the mysterious Xuan Realm manifested, spreading across the vast skies. Every inch of the vision was startlingly lifelike.
Within that realm, immortal mountains floated, Dao laws surged, celestial rivers flowed endlessly, living beings bowed in reverence, and the sun and moon revolved without pauseâan awe-inspiring and magnificent sight.
Breaking through to the Golden Immortal Realm involved three key thresholds: a breakthrough in the level of immortal energy, a deepened comprehension of Dao laws, and transforming oneâs Xuan Realm into a self-contained universeâthus grasping the true power of immortality.
Among these, Jiang Chengxuan had already completed the first stepâelevating his immortal energy.
Back when he subdued the Primordial Runes, he had already reached the peak of the Profound Immortal Realm. Every breakthrough since then had further raised the upper limits of his power.
By the time he entered the Ancient Golden Immortal Cave Mansion, purely based on his immortal strength, Jiang Chengxuan could already rival true Golden Immortal experts.
âXuan Realm, manifest!â
Enveloped in the visions of his realm, Jiang Chengxuan unknowingly stepped into a new world.
Around him, clouds surged and winds howled, celestial radiance shifted, and thunder rumbled. Immortal winds swept over the mountain ridges, casting multicolored light that coated the land in a radiant glow.
Laws of the Dao, once intangible, now took shape, weaving through the air like soaring phoenixes and dancing dragons.
The scale of his Xuan Realm now rivaled the former Xuanming Immortal Domainâit was vast to a terrifying degree. With his current power, if Jiang Chengxuan were to return to the Xuanming Immortal Domain, the fate of the entire world would lie in his hands. With a single thought, he could decide between creation and destruction.
âIt beginsâŠâ
At last, Jiang Chengxuan was fully prepared. He officially commenced the first phase of his breakthrough to the Golden Immortal Realm.
Suddenly, a beam of multicolored light soared into the heavens. A pill, glowing like a star, rose into his palm and was immediately consumed.
It was the Golden Immortal Breakthrough Pillârewarded by the systemâand it was his greatest trump card in breaking through.
As soon as it entered his body, the medicinal power began to refine. A mysterious force flowed through every corner of his being, initiating a series of dramatic transformations.
Wherever the force passed, Jiang Chengxuanâs immortal energy intertwined with it, becoming lighter, more ethereal, and more refined.
This was one of the effects of the breakthrough pillâit further condensed oneâs immortal energy.
At Jiang Chengxuanâs current level, such refinement was nearly impossible without an extraordinary opportunity. But under the pillâs effect, everything proceeded smoothly and naturally.
This was why such pills were nearly extinctâthere were barely a few left in the entire Ancient Realm. Without the systemâs reward, Jiang Chengxuan would never have obtained it at this stage. Perhaps only legendary Da Luo Golden Immortals possessed such treasures.
But there were no âwhat ifs.â At this moment, Jiang Chengxuan was undergoing a true transformation.
Thanks to his incredibly solid foundation, this initial stage didnât take long. Under the pillâs influence, the power of his Xuan Realm stirred up primordial winds. Vast amounts of immortal energy filled every inch of space, causing even the heavens to tremble and rotate.
This overwhelming force surged like a storm, tearing open the veil of the sky and revealing the deep cosmic void behind it, where stars twinkled endlessly.
âThe first step⊠is not enough!â
Though the first stage was complete, Jiang Chengxuan did not rest.
Within just a few breaths, his gaze remained firm and unshaken. With a single thought, his boundless immortal power merged into the hazy void, triggering deep, resonant hums.
In an instant, the universe around him flickered between illusion and reality. Rays of immortal light burst forth, covering his Xuan Realm in sacred brilliance.
Meanwhile, the breakthrough pill continued supporting him. A mysterious aura, imbued with Dao law, suddenly appeared within his spiritual awareness.
Within this aura, Jiang Chengxuan felt his comprehension of the Dao grow exponentially. Every shift in the laws became clearer and more intuitive.
The Dao traces flowing throughout his realm seemed to come alive, like vivid scriptures, revealing their hidden truths to him.
Though they remained elusive and complex, they were now far more understandable than when they were formless.
Naturally, Jiang Chengxuan wasted no time. He immediately released his soul power, sensing and comprehending every trace of Dao law, incorporating them into the foundation for creating his own universe.
Only now did he encounter what could truly be called a bottleneck. This process was destined to be long and arduous, with no shortcuts or tricks available.
Yet for Jiang Chengxuan, this rule didnât quite apply.
As he absorbed the surrounding Dao traces, he quickly adapted. Then, in a flash of immortal light, he summoned yet another astonishing treasure.
It was a cluster of illusory brillianceâmysterious, radiant, and exuding an extraordinary presence.
The moment it appeared, it swelled and expanded, transforming into a small star that continually shifted and glowed.
Anyone who had once entered the Ancient Golden Immortal Cave Mansion would immediately recognize itâthis was the Golden Immortal Comprehension Essence that countless immortals had fought over.
Though it was only the tip of the iceberg, it was enough to be considered a supreme luxury when attempting to break through to the Golden Immortal Realm.
Its effects were not inferior to the breakthrough pillâin fact, they might even be greater.
This essence came from the comprehension of true Golden Immortals and was incredibly rare. Even Golden Immortals themselves could only produce a trace of it during moments of immense insight and enlightenment.
Every drop of it carried profound mysteriesâjust a sliver could be worth hundreds or thousands of years of cultivation.
Buzzâ! Buzzâ!
Jiang Chengxuan remained expressionless. With a calm wave of his hand, he slowly released the sealed power of the Golden Immortal Comprehension Essence and absorbed it into his body.
Its effects were immediate. The moment he began absorbing it, his entire body radiated with a light of insight, making him look like a golden Buddha seated in the voidâmajestic and solemn.
A spark of divine light emerged within his mind, setting off waves of enlightenment. The vast knowledge and understanding once possessed by an ancient Golden Immortal surged through his thoughts in mysterious and profound ways.
In that moment, the deeper truths of heaven, earth, and the cosmos unfolded before Jiang Chengxuanâs eyesâlayer by layer, veil by veil.
