Chapter 1509 - Chapter 1509 Swift Arrival, Swift Departure_2
Chapter 1509: Swift Arrival, Swift Departure_2 Chapter 1509: Swift Arrival, Swift Departure_2 Editor: Henyee Translations Transforming into a vast canopy, it shielded the mountain gate.
In the Immortal Domain, hemispherical barriers radiated mystical phenomena, appearing extraordinarily radiant and mysterious.
Connected together, they resembled a galaxy of splendor, illuminating the entire Xuanming Immortal Domain as if it were daytime.
However, this brilliance did little to calm the souls within, as a concave force in the void continued to gather strength, growing ever more terrifying.
It collided and chafed against an intangible presence, sparking dreadful heavenly lightning and earthly fire that stained the area crimson, resembling an enormous blood-red eye overlooking the Xuanming Immortal Domain.
Under the violent transformations, Jiang Chengxuan and the three from the Ancient Realm tensed, beads of sweat forming on their foreheads.
Facing such world-ending power, the pressure on them was overwhelming.
“If this continues, the heavens might truly be torn asunder!” As they waited endlessly for an opportune moment, Rong Lao spoke with a heavy heart, his eyes filled with helplessness.
Wielding a crystalline bamboo rod, he summoned a massive pillar of heavenly energy, which manifested in the void and thrust toward the concave force.
“Boom!” But it was immediately countered by the power from the depression, shattering the heavenly pillar into fragments.
The fragments, tainted by heavenly lightning and earthly fire, burned across the void for tens of thousands of miles.
Even Rong Lao himself had to step back, his aura slightly unsteady.
Clearly, his probing strike demonstrated the dire consequences of acting rashly, leaving everyone else to hold their breath and refrain from impulsive actions.
“BuzzaEUR”!” At a certain moment, the long-awaited turning point finally arrived.
A blinding celestial river emerged from beyond the heavens, cascading into the Immortal Domain.
This too was a presence so awe-inspiring that it defied comprehension.
“What is that?!” “Something else has arrived, and it’s terrifying!” “It seems to be a power from beyond this realmaEUR”I’ve never heard of such a thing!” Its appearance instantly caused a stir across the Xuanming Immortal Domain, leaving countless cultivators in shock.
Before they could observe further, the dazzling celestial light descended upon the Immortal Domain, overturning the heavenly canopy and rendering the sight unviewable.
Some attempted to use their immortal energy to shield their eyes, but were instantly blinded, blood streaming from their sockets as they screamed in agony.
Only Jiang Chengxuan and the three from the Ancient Realm could see it clearly.
The cosmic light poured from the heavens and fell onto the concave area, birthing an unimaginably fearsome chaos force that disrupted the fabric of that space.
Heavenly lightning, earthly fire, the collapsing heavenly canopy, and the counteracting power from the Ancient RealmaEUR”all dissolved into an indescribable scene that constantly twisted and expanded.
The rules governing this chaos were so scrambled that even Jiang Chengxuan and the others could not decipher what transformations the celestial light and the immortal force had wrought.
After what seemed like an eternity, the two interwoven forces, seemingly exhausted, began to subside.
What they left behind exploded into countless fragments that shot out across the Xuanming Immortal Domain.
This unforeseen development left Jiang Chengxuan and the others stunned.
They only managed fleeting glimpses of traces flashing through the void before they vanished entirely.
“HuaEUR”” Witnessing the surreal events finally conclude, Jiang Chengxuan exhaled deeply.
In his line of sight, the terrifyingly concave area of the heavenly canopy had miraculously restored itself, as if nothing had ever happened.
Only the devastation on the ground silently testified to the events.
After the storm, the Immortal Domain’s cultivators erupted in discussion about the terrifying day they had miraculously survived.
Some were overjoyed at their unexpected salvation, while rumors and debates spread like wildfire: “I heard it was Immortal Lord Jiang who stopped the catastrophe that day!
I saw him stand in the void, confronting destruction!” “Nonsense!
It was a peerless treasure that emerged, only to be taken by a terrifying entity from beyond our realm!
Or maybe it was a fortune nurtured in our Immortal Domain all along!” “You’re all wrong!
I saw the treasure shattered by external forces.
Its fragments have scattered throughout the Xuanming Immortal Domain!
Mark my words: when I find one, I’ll ascend to the heavens in a single leap!” “Ridiculous!
Keep dreaming!
You’ve clearly been scared out of your wits!” Theories abounded.
Some claimed Jiang Chengxuan had once again saved the Immortal Domain.
Others whispered that an unspeakable entity beyond their realm was using their world to nurture treasures, an idea that sent chills down spines.
To vent their terror, many people clung to their own beliefs, with arguments escalating into outright brawls in some places.
Even within the Rogue Cultivator Alliance, speculation ran rampant.
However, the truth was finally revealed to Jiang Chengxuan a few days later.
In the grand tower, within a lavish chamber, Jiang Chengxuan convened with the three from the Ancient Realm.
Wasting no time, he asked: “My three friends, have you discovered anything?
What exactly happened that day?” Eager to learn about the unknown forces, Jiang Chengxuan was curious despite having witnessed the entire upheaval.
Beyond knowing that a supreme immortal had acted, he was utterly puzzled.
Rong Lao, without holding back, began: “Yes, there’s news from the Ancient Realm.” Taking his seat, Jiang Chengxuan’s eyes sparkled with anticipation.
“That day, a great figure from the Ancient Realm tried to break through to our domain.
As for their intent, we do not yet know.” Hearing this, Jiang Chengxuan, though unsurprised, couldn’t help but feel a slight chill.
It seemed that even the Ancient Realm trio were not high enough in rank to learn the deeper truths.
However, he maintained a calm facade and asked plainly: “And who suppressedaEUR| that Immortal?
What became of them?” Rong Lao nodded and explained everything he knew: “That Immortal’s bold actions caught the attention of one of our higher-ups in the Ancient Realm, who activated certain arrangements left behind long ago to suppress them.” This revelation astonished Jiang Chengxuan.
Arrangements left behind?
Did that mean there were still many such setups from the Ancient Realm in the Xuanming Immortal Domain?
Or could it be that these three had other hidden agendas beyond delivering their invitation to the Ancient Realm?
Countless thoughts raced through his mind.
Still, he gained some confidence in the safety of the Xuanming Immortal Domain.
Though Ancient Realm figures were powerful, they were not easily capable of breaching this domain at will.
“That day, after the Immortal was suppressed, fragments of their power might have scattered across the Xuanming Immortal Domain.
This could lead to chaos, so you must remain vigilant.” As he spoke, Rong Lao’s gaze sharpened, offering a serious warning.
Jiang Chengxuan’s expression grew heavy as he responded, astonished: “Fragments of an Immortal’s power?
Scattered across the Xuanming Immortal Domain?
Do you have any way to locate them?” This unexpected news was shocking, leaving him uncertain whether it was a blessing or a curse.
“Alas, there is no method.
The means of an Immortal are hard to unravel; it will take time to find them,” Rong Lao sighed.
“Because of this, we cannot stay in the Xuanming Immortal Domain for long and must return to the Ancient Realm soon.” Both Ao Yue and Xu Bai appeared equally displeased.
They had hoped to linger in the Immortal Domain, but circumstances dictated otherwise.
Their next visit to the Xuanming Immortal Domain might be a long time away.
While the Ancient Realm was remarkable, living there for extended periods could be stifling, and the Immortal Domain offered a connection to their roots and bloodlines.
