Chapter 1919: All Immortals Gather, Re-entering the Deep Space — Part 2
Editor: Henyee Translations
No sooner said than done! Just as Elder Yun Shi predicted, upon sensing Jiang Chengxuan’s entry, the deep space universe erupted once again with that terrifying mutation.
The shocking impact arrived as promised, crushing the void and sweeping through chaos with a power rivaling that of a Golden Immortal. A mighty tidal wave thousands of feet high surged forward, sweeping across the entire realm.
“Hmph.”
But Jiang Chengxuan was no longer the same as he was thousands of years ago.
Facing the relentless onslaught that had once forced him into retreat, he let out a cold snort. Without any unnecessary movement, he condensed his Golden Immortal power into a protective barrier and stood firm.
The earth-shattering aftershock slammed down, instantly engulfing Jiang Chengxuan’s figure. The surrounding space shattered bit by bit, yet he stood like a sharp blade, forcing the impact to split and flow around him—one wave to the left and one to the right.
It was as if this force deliberately avoided Jiang Chengxuan, unwilling to directly clash with him.
Throughout it all, Jiang Chengxuan’s expression remained calm as he strode forward through the tidal wave. The rushing flood split apart, a huge circular shockwave severed cleanly by his sheer will.
Still, he did not linger in triumph. Having diffused this attack, he knew even stronger waves would come one after another.
His immediate priority was to reach the center of the deep space universe and find a way to descend to the unknown lower layers.
With that in mind, Jiang Chengxuan unleashed his immortal power, transforming into a streak of golden light, darting forward like lightning.
At his current speed, surpassing that of years past, he could cross an entire star domain in an instant.
“Buzz—!”
Yet, just as this happened, something unexpected occurred.
Suddenly, after only a few breaths, the second wave of impact burst forth abruptly. An even more terrifying force swept through the still unsettled space, stirring chaos and striking fiercely.
“Hm?”
Jiang Chengxuan was taken aback, narrowing his eyes and letting out a sound of surprise.
Without a doubt, when he previously fled the mutation alongside Cloud Sky and Cloud Earth, the frequency of these destructive shocks could not have been this terrifying. Otherwise, escaping the mutation would have been impossible for them.
“No wonder Elder Yun and Elder Sky Sword couldn’t stay long the last time.”
At last, Jiang Chengxuan understood why Elder Yun Shi and Elder Sky Sword had been driven out despite working together.
The current severity of the mutation was simply overwhelming.
Jiang Chengxuan sensed that these waves inherited the strength of the previous ones, each impact more ferocious than the last. He was now the third batch of people entering, which was why such a commotion was triggered.
“Rumble—!”
Regardless, such power could no longer scare Jiang Chengxuan.
In a flash, his figure barely paused. His sacred golden light exploded, and he transformed into a golden star, directly crashing into the chaotic impact.
With deafening roars, two Golden Immortal powers collided, erupting a dazzling burst of immortal light that soared skyward.
Simultaneously, the chaotic universe began to shift in a way Jiang Chengxuan was very familiar with. The shattered space twisted wildly, as if countless vortices were silently pulling at heaven and earth.
A sense of disorientation instantly filled every inch of the void.
Extreme darkness descended like nightfall, swallowing all light and leaving no distinction between sky and earth.
During this mutation, the deep space manifested in two forms: lost darkness and blood-red light. Either form would relentlessly corrode anyone trapped inside.
“Ten Thousand Worlds Manifested Sacred Scripture, activate!”
Without hesitation, Jiang Chengxuan unleashed his full strength.
Behind him, his Golden Immortal cosmos manifested a faint aura. Massive golden light bursts erupted, and countless golden runes pierced through the darkness like dawn’s first light.
In an instant, it was as if several great suns and nine linked stars had risen behind him. Their divine radiance clashed fiercely with the encroaching dark corruption, causing the heavens and earth to tremble violently.
Having broken through to mid-stage Golden Immortal and approaching late-stage, after thousands of years of cultivation enhanced by various powers, Jiang Chengxuan had reached new heights.
His terrifying might no longer required hiding in this bizarre realm.
The restraining power of the Ten Thousand Worlds Manifested Sacred Scripture surged violently, clearing the surroundings abruptly.
The twisting lost darkness was forcibly smoothed and suppressed by the brilliant light and restraining power, opening a firm path forward.
This was truly astonishing. Even Elder Yun and Elder Sky Sword, working together before, could only cautiously explore in the darkness, never so forcefully commanding it as Jiang Chengxuan now did.
Fully focused and free of distractions, Jiang Chengxuan spread the Ten Thousand Worlds Manifested Sacred Scripture like a scattered star network, flowing forward as a flood, compressing the lost darkness step by step.
Only when he sensed a tremendous pressure did he cease pushing further.
Bearing the golden great suns, he continued toward the deep space.
This mutation power was a sealing formation set by the owner of the Ancient Golden Immortal Cave. Jiang Chengxuan’s test helped him roughly determine its limits for future reference.
Exhibiting mid-stage Golden Immortal power, Jiang Chengxuan’s advance grew even more terrifying and resolute.
Wave after wave of impact and mutation rolled in like tides but could not slow his pace one bit.
In the blink of an eye, deep space turned into a boundless crimson sea. Invisible sharp forces ruthlessly cut everything, trying to corrode Jiang Chengxuan’s soul.
Yet under the sacred power of the Ten Thousand Worlds Manifested Sacred Scripture, the golden light burned steadily like an unextinguishable candle, repelling all mutation forces with an impregnable defense.
…
Meanwhile, as Jiang Chengxuan fiercely battled the mutation, the breach in the desolate star domain finally saw the arrival of other Golden Immortal cultivators.
After some searching, one person found the location, and others followed his trail closely.
Elder Yun Shi and Elder Sky Sword were naturally among them.
Besides them, other Golden Immortals from various factions had also come, such as the Earth Decay Great Immortal.
“Oh? Looks like today will be lively!”
Elder Yun Shi’s eyes narrowed. This Ancient Golden Immortal Cave had originally been discovered by him, the Arrogant Blood Demon Immortal, Elder Sky Sword, and the Dark Profound Lord.
After repeated explorations, the disturbances had inevitably drawn wider attention, attracting Golden Immortals from various sides.
“Hmph! Yun Shi, you petty man! You actually try to hoard such a great opportunity for yourself! Truly selfish!”
Soon, four Golden Immortals gathered at the small breach, and someone openly scolded Elder Yun Shi with dissatisfaction.
Since Elder Yun Shi had been the first to discover this place, those following could tell from his demeanor that the treasure ground had long been explored by him.
“This treasure lies here. Those with fate may come. How could I hoard it?”
Elder Yun Shi naturally denied this, replying calmly.
At this moment, the deep and mysterious fluctuations emanating from the entrance attracted everyone’s attention.
A strong aura spread out, proving the presence of extraordinary opportunity within.
“What a powerful aura! There must be great chance inside. In that case, I shall not be polite!”
Instantly, the Earth Decay Great Immortal grinned smugly, his demonic aura surging.
He flashed forward and vanished into the crimson entrance without hesitation.
Following closely, another Golden Immortal eagerly pursued, transforming into immortal light and entering as well.
Seeing this, Elder Yun Shi and Elder Sky Sword exchanged strange looks, a trace of schadenfreude gleaming deep within their eyes.
