Chapter 1505: The Climax of the Grand Ceremony, Three Heavenly Immortals _2 Chapter 1505: The Climax of the Grand Ceremony, Three Heavenly Immortals _2 Editor: Henyee Translations As more and more cultivators presented their tributes, the high platform became bathed in dazzling light.
Immortal energy and ethereal mists surged continuously, with waves of incredible auras radiating from the treasures unveiled one after another.
This left everyone present awestruck, their eyes filled with envy and amazement.
For many, the treasures being offered were items they could never dream of obtaining in their lifetimes.
Yet here, they were being presented as casually as stones poured from a basket, leaving them utterly overwhelmed.
To gain Jiang Chengxuan’s favor, the various immortal sects spared no effort in their offerings.
The treasures they presented even made their rivals secretly gasp in awe, cursing them for their cunning.
Throughout the gathering, discussions buzzed incessantly.
Immortals stared unblinkingly at the treasures being unveiled, boasting to those around them about their knowledge and eliciting exclamations of amazement.
Even Jiang Chengxuan, whose vision had already surpassed the mundane, found himself impressed by a few of the precious items.
He exchanged pleasantries with the offering sects, forging bonds of goodwill.
By the later stages of the ceremony, the tributes had piled up beside the platform into what resembled another towering stage.
The boundless radiance of the treasures shot into the heavens, piercing through layers of clouds and illuminating the world.
This added a legendary aura to the grand ceremony of the Heavenly Immortal.
That day, nearly half of the treasures of the Xuanming Immortal Domain seemed to have appeared.
The nerves of those present remained tense for days on end, with exclamations of awe echoing without cease.
Suddenly, a voice broke the jubilant atmosphere: “An envoy from the Ancient Realm presents the Heavenly Source Immortal Jade as a tribute!
Congratulations to Daoist Jiang on ascending to the Heavenly Immortal stage and transcending the Immortal Domain.” The abrupt and unconventional tone left the entire gathering in stunned silence.
In an instant, the crowd erupted into murmurs.
All eyes turned toward the speaker in shock.
The disciples and elders of the Rogue Cultivator Alliance wore expressions of bewilderment, clearly at a loss.
Daoist?
Was this how Jiang Chengxuan, now regarded as an exalted Heavenly Immortal, was being addressed?
Who would dare to be so presumptuous, addressing him as a mere peer to curry favor?
This single statement caused waves in the hearts of all present.
While Jiang Chengxuan was known for his calm demeanor, he was still a revered Heavenly Immortal.
Addressing him casually was an audacious act.
Many believed that the speaker would surely face consequences, watching with a mix of shock and schadenfreude.
The culprits?
Three figures dressed in white robesaEUR”a wizened elder, a youth, and a middle-aged man.
Holding an exquisite jade box, they approached Jiang Chengxuan with calm expressions, utterly unperturbed.
Their audacious behavior drew gasps from the crowd.
“Are these three mad?
Acting so recklessly!” “Do they even have a background to support such insolence before a Heavenly Immortal?” “I predict their sect will be wiped out by the Rogue Cultivator Alliance for this.” The elder in charge of accepting tributes for the Rogue Cultivator Alliance was visibly displeased.
He rebuked the trio sharply: “Mind your manners!
Tributes are not to be handed directly to the Heavenly Exalted!” With that, he activated his cultivation, reaching out to seize the jade box from their hands.
But what happened next left the audience even more astonished.
Despite the elder’s repeated attempts to snatch the box, the trio remained motionless, as if separated by an impenetrable void.
No matter how hard the elder tried, drenched in sweat, he couldn’t get close to them.
Even more baffling was that the trio didn’t reveal even the slightest hint of their aura.
Their calm and casual demeanor only heightened the sense of mystery and dread.
This extraordinary scene convinced the onlookers of one thing: these three were far from ordinary.
Jiang Chengxuan, too, felt an unusual unease.
His gaze met theirs in the void, and he immediately recognized their uniqueness.
Their presence seamlessly merged with the natural laws of the world.
Even with his Heavenly Immortal perception, Jiang Chengxuan couldn’t discern their depths.
This could mean only one thing: these three individuals were equals, perhaps even fellow Heavenly Immortals!
Jiang Chengxuan had long considered such possibilities.
During his ascension to the Heavenly Immortal realm, he had sensed anomalies in the world, perceiving a hollow vastness.
Upon breaking through, he became acutely aware of a limitation in the Immortal Domain, as if it imposed an invisible ceiling, hinting at transcendence.
This was deeply illogical.
After all, while Heavenly Immortals were powerful, they were not unprecedented.
Throughout history, there had been realms beyond: the Profound Immortals and Golden Immortals.
If the Immortal Domain’s limit was only the Heavenly Immortal level, why had others advanced beyond it?
Where had those ancient Heavenly Immortals gone?
What had become of the Profound and Golden Immortals?
These were questions Jiang Chengxuan had pondered long and hard, believing them to conceal hidden truths.
Now, the three before him seemed to embody the answers.
“Allow me.” Breaking the silence, Jiang Chengxuan dismissed the elder and approached the trio.
This unprecedented act shocked everyone, who could not comprehend why Jiang Chengxuan was treating these strangers with such respect.
The trio simply stood, unyielding yet calm, holding the jade box.
“Welcome, honored guests.
Thank you for your gift,” Jiang Chengxuan said, extending his hand toward the box.
The youth holding the box smiled faintly but made no move.
“BuzzaEUR”!” As Jiang Chengxuan’s hand neared the box, an extraordinary vibration erupted.
For a brief moment, he felt as though countless layered dimensions had materialized between him and the box.
Without hesitation, he activated his mastery over spatial laws.
Since ascending to the Heavenly Immortal realm, he had fully comprehended these principles, surpassing all predecessors.
With this power, he unraveled the dimensional barriers, bridging the once-insurmountable gap in an instant.
“Many thanks, fellow Daoists,” Jiang Chengxuan said, retrieving the box and bowing slightly.
“You’re welcome,” the elder among the trio replied casually, stroking his white beard.
This brief exchange revealed everything: these three were undoubtedly Heavenly Immortals.
The realization sent shockwaves through the ranks of the Earthly Immortal elders, who were stunned into silence.
Three new Heavenly Immortals appearing all at once?
The implications defied comprehension.
Meanwhile, ordinary cultivators failed to grasp the significance, dismissing the trio’s success as mere luck and Jiang Chengxuan’s leniency.
“Shall we discuss this after the ceremony?” the youth asked Jiang Chengxuan softly.
“Indeed.
I’ll trouble you to wait a little longer,” Jiang Chengxuan replied.
With that, the grand ceremony continued.
