Following a Hundred Years of Cultivation, I'm dying Before I Got Cheats

Chapter 1453: Three Rare Treasures, Awe of the Immortals (Part 2) Chapter 1453: Three Rare Treasures, Awe of the Immortals (Part 2) Editor: Henyee Translations When Jiang Chengxuan finished speaking, the scene fell into a prolonged silence.

Elder Star Hu stood frozen in place, unsure how to respond.

A moment ago, he had been inwardly mocking Jiang Chengxuan for his supposed ignorance.

But in the next instant, Jiang Chengxuan’s actions proved that the truly ignorant one was himself.

Jiang’s gaze rested on Star Hu with a hint of knowing amusement, as though he could see through Star Hu’s every thought.

Surrounded by the scrutiny of so many immortals, Star Hu felt his face burn with embarrassment.

But he was, after all, a seasoned elder who had weathered countless storms.

In the face of life and death, he quickly adjusted his mindset, reminding himself that a bruised ego was a small price to pay for survival.

“HehaEUR| I must admit, you’re right.

Every word is true,” Star Hu replied through gritted teeth, forcing a smile despite the pain it brought him.

This precious elixir had been one of his most prized possessions, carefully preserved for his own use when he planned to break through the later stages of the Celestial Immortal realm.

Yet now, he was offering it up to Jiang Chengxuan.

Along with the Primal Spirit Tree, these two treasures were treasures of such rarity that they could easily spark wars among Celestial Immortals.

Even Jiang Chengxuan’s eyes sparkled with genuine admiration as he remarked, “The Starry Celestial Sect truly has deep reserves of wealth and heritage.

Impressive.” The value of these two treasures was undeniableaEUR”even he, without the right fortune or opportunities, would have struggled to obtain them.

Although Jiang was already half a step into the Celestial realm, these essential treasures would be of great benefit to his companion Shen Ruyan.

But Star Hu, Star Scourge, and Star Fall couldn’t help but feel a strange bitterness at Jiang’s praise.

All their heritage and strength were, at this moment, merely gifts for another.

Their carefully guarded treasures, now stripped from them, had become a burden.

After a long silence, Star Hu held up the two treasures and asked, “Would these two offerings be enough to satisfy you?” His question drew everyone’s attention once again.

Two such potent treasures were already enough to make others envious.

But Jiang Chengxuan held the life and death of the Starry Celestial Sect in his hands.

Would he truly let them go so easily?

All the watching immortals subtly shook their heads, convinced that Jiang would never spare the Starry Celestial Sect without a steeper price.

Though the value of these treasures was enough to rival a whole domain, they still fell short of buying an entire sect’s survival.

“Haha.” True to expectation, Jiang’s gaze narrowed in thought, and with a slight smile, he calmly raised a single finger.

At this, Star Hu and the other two elders paled, their expressions hardening, and their fists clenched, as a surge of aura pulsed around them.

Jiang’s message was clear: he wanted yet another treasure of comparable value before he would agree to leave.

This was a demand without compromise.

But the Starry Celestial Sect was now like fish on a chopping block, waiting to be carved up.

No matter how unwilling they felt, could they really gamble their entire foundation and throw away a millennia-old legacy?

Material treasures could always be recovered in time, but if the sect were scattered or destroyed, how could they ever rebuild?

“Elder Star HuaEUR|” Star Scourge and Star Fall murmured nervously, fearing that their elder might act rashly and endanger the entire sect.

Star Hu took a deep breath, gestured for them to remain calm, and finally made his decision.

After a brief hesitation, he drew out another treasure, veiled in a shimmering aura of celestial light.

The third treasure was a tridentaEUR”a weapon of formidable might, about the length of an arm, glowing with a deep, mysterious starlight.

The trident’s appearance caused ripples of energy to pulse through the air, filling the space with an imposing sharpness.

“A pseudo-celestial weapon!” someone exclaimed.

“What a lavish offering!” “Who would have thought Star Hu possessed such a weapon!” The leaders of various factions and Celestial Immortals were stunned.

While not entirely unheard of, pseudo-celestial weapons were still exceedingly rare.

True Celestial weapons were limited, near-mythical items in the celestial domain, only available to those with rare fortune.

In contrast, pseudo-celestial weapons represented the highest caliber of weapons that modern celestial craftsmen could create.

Even among Celestial Immortals, many still relied on lesser tools, merely augmenting their abilities with celestial energy but lacking any real power within the weapons themselves.

Against a true Celestial weapon, such as Jiang Chengxuan’s Tai Chu Water and Fire Sword, they would be rendered useless.

Given this, the pseudo-celestial trident’s value was undeniable.

Crafting such a weapon required the combined expertise of multiple Celestial Immortal-level artisans and the incorporation of rare materials.

In terms of worth, it was easily comparable to the otherworldly treasures.

“This celestial weapon is rare indeed; I need not say moreaEUR|” Star Hu spoke with renewed confidence, holding the trident as he cast Jiang a sidelong glance, regaining some of his composure.

In his mind, Star Hu couldn’t help but feel a tinge of satisfaction.

This trident had been a reliable weapon that had aided him in several victories against powerful foes.

If not for Jiang’s own enigmatic techniques, which had rendered him unable to wield the trident effectively, Star Hu believed his defeat would not have come so quickly.

However, unlike the shocked reactions of those around him, Jiang Chengxuan remained calm and indifferent.

Without so much as a hint of approval, he slowly shook his head, stating, “This weapon does not measure up to the other two.” Star Hu’s eyes widened in shock, and he frowned in frustration.

Many of the observing immortals exchanged baffled glances, struggling to understand.

After all, by anyone’s estimation, this pseudo-celestial weapon was no lesser than the first two treasures.

For many Celestial Immortals, if given a choice to keep only two of the three treasures, they would have forgone the Primal Spirit Tree.

Did Jiang’s dismissal imply he was scheming for something greater?

“Sir, you’re being unreasonable!” Star Scourge snapped, stepping forward with a scowl.

“This weapon is a pseudo-celestial artifact!” Star Fall added sharply.

“Its value is evident to all.” “Such a baseless rejection is beyond absurd!” Many of the watching immortals shared their sentiment, believing Jiang had ulterior motives.

Jiang’s expression, however, remained unchanged.

He said nothing.

Instead, he extended his hand into the void, and in the next instant, a brilliant light burst forth, engulfing the entire sky.

In Jiang’s grasp appeared a sword, its hilt entwined with crimson and azure dragons.

The sword’s presence reverberated through the air, generating a soft, calming hum.

The immense energy radiating from it held a profound, otherworldly power, suppressing all nearby energies.

The pseudo-celestial trident quivered, emitting a faint, mournful sound as if it were a lone boat caught in a tempest.

Its sharp, unyielding aura quickly retreated, leaving it subdued before Jiang’s weapon.

“HissaEUR”!” All who witnessed this scene gasped, their faces etched with disbelief as they stared at Jiang’s weapon.

“ThisaEUR| is this a true Celestial weapon?” “Impossible!

True Celestial artifacts haven’t surfaced in the domain for tens of thousands of years!” The crowd was left in stunned silence, with their gazes locked on the sword.

The weapon’s mere presence was enough to make them shiver.
