Chapter 1435: Gifts from the Earth Immortals, a Mysterious Beast (Part 2) Chapter 1435: Gifts from the Earth Immortals, a Mysterious Beast (Part 2) Editor: Henyee Translations This hidden rivalry, this silent contest, was precisely the signal Jiang Chengxuan intended to send with this Earth Immortal ceremonyaEUR”a signal that the powers understood well.
Each major Earth Immortal force sensed this intention and had come prepared.
After a few words exchanged between Jiang Chengxuan and the three visiting Earth Immortals, a tense silence filled the air.
Those gathered felt the shift, noting the latent intensity behind the trio's presence.
Three Earth Immortals presenting gifts togetheraEUR”this alone held significant meaning.
“Could the Western Continent be on the brink of another upheaval?” many cultivators wondered, knowing that outside of the Western Continent, war and chaos ravaged the realms.
If the Rogue Cultivator Alliance and these powerful sects clashed, it would undoubtedly lead to a terrifying conflict.
As anxiety grew among the gathered cultivators, they could only hope for a peaceful resolution, yet they also knew that no one could control or predict the intentions of Earth Immortals.
As tension spread like wildfire, all eyes turned toward the towering ceremonial altar.
“Daoist Shen's advancement to Earth Immortal is indeed a joyous occasion for the Western Continent,” began the white-robed Winged Emperor solemnly.
“Thus, we three sects have brought a unique treasure as a gift.
But would your esteemed Alliance dare to accept it?” “Oh?
Might there be something peculiar about this treasure?” Jiang Chengxuan replied, his eyes narrowing slightly.
He and Shen Ruyan knew this was no ordinary gift.
“This treasure was born of the Great TribulationaEUR”a rare and formidable item, yet it is as vicious as it is precious.
By chance, the three of us managed to seal it temporarily,” the Winged Emperor explained.
“Its power is highly erratic; even with our combined efforts, it resists all suppression.
If you two can subdue it, it would indeed be a joyful accomplishment for us all.” The gathered cultivators listened in awe, their expressions turning somber.
A mysterious object born of the Tribulation and unable to be subdued by three Earth ImmortalsaEUR”it was undoubtedly something to be wary of.
If unleashed, it could spell disaster for all present, causing mass casualties.
Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan exchanged a glance, initially surprised by the challenge, then nodding calmly.
Jiang replied, “Such a gift, how could we decline?
Whatever it may be, the Rogue Cultivator Alliance fears nothing.” With his words, the message was clear: whatever test lay in store, they would face it unflinchingly.
The three Earth Immortals' smiles faded slightly, eyes sharpening in response.
In truth, the three did possess such an object, a peculiar entity born from the Tribulation.
Despite countless attempts, it defied their control.
More than once, it nearly escaped its confinement, risking catastrophe.
When the Alliance's invitation came, the three decided to bring it forth, intending to use it to intimidate Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan.
Whether they succeeded or not, it would serve a purposeaEUR”if they failed, they'd at least have rid themselves of a volatile burden.
If necessary, accepting the Alliance's dominance over the Western Continent would be a minor concession.
“Very well!
You both are as bold as expected!” The Winged Emperor chuckled.
“Then, please, show us your strength.
Release it!” Without further delay, the three Earth Immortals unleashed their auras and summoned their realms.
Instantly, celestial light filled the void as their Earth Immortal energy surged.
Every cultivator present felt a powerful force shake them to the core.
“Lady Shen, would you mind assisting our guests?” Jiang Chengxuan asked, turning to Shen Ruyan.
“Of course.
Take care,” she replied, nodding.
In a flash, she took her place, manifesting a vast ocean of lightning behind her.
The sky seemed to ripple as her Earth Immortal power enveloped the area, stabilizing the chaotic energies.
In moments, the once-lively ceremony transformed into a silent, invisible battlefield as all held their breath.
In the void above, the three Earth Immortals fully unleashed their power.
Their domains shimmered like ethereal realms, merging together to form a trinity of celestial landscapes.
With a deafening roar, a colossal heavenly gate opened in the center of their realms, exuding an ancient, unfathomable force laced with a hint of destruction.
The crowd gasped as they watched the imposing gate appear, chills racing down their spines.
Behind them, a calm voice reassured the crowd, saying, “Please remain calm.
Jiang Chengxuan and our revered elders have everything under control.” It was Yuan Han, another elder of the Alliance, who appeared, his power settling the tremors in the air.
After exchanging a nod with Jiang Chengxuan, Yuan Han released his own domain, casting a radiant light across the sky that suppressed the growing turbulence.
Reassured by Yuan Han's intervention, the guests exhaled in relief, curiosity rekindling as they gazed up at the void.
What sort of entity could require such power to subdue it?
Some among the crowd, thrilled by the spectacle, thought that seeing such a rare object was worth any risk, even death.
Jiang Chengxuan, too, was intrigued.
He was eager to see what these three Earth Immortals had prepared as a test.
“Be careful, Daoist Jiang,” came the Winged Emperor's voice, a signal for what was to come.
With a deep, ominous hum, the dark gate in the void emitted a wave of black light, revealing the treasure within.
Dark winds howled around a towering figure that roared as it emerged from the gate.
The creature was a monstrous beast covered in thorn-like protrusions, with a body as dark as a black star.
Shifting between tangible and ethereal, it had no discernible face, only a gaping, abyssal maw.
Its back was armored, and it bore massive, pitch-black wings that darkened the sky as they flapped, casting silhouettes of red against the void.
Jiang Chengxuan recognized the creature immediately; it bore an uncanny resemblance to the avatar of the accursed tree he had fought during the Tribulation.
Clearly, this beast was another relic of the Tribulation and likely tied to the entity that had wreaked havoc across realms.
The three Earth Immortals, by some twist of fate, had managed to contain it.
He couldn't help but wonder if their fortune was truly goodaEUR”or disastrously poor.
“ThisaEUR its auraaEUR it's just like that of the Great Tribulation!” voices whispered in terror among the crowd.
“What a terrifying poweraEUR what a monstrous beastaEUR will we even make it out of here alive?” Many cultivators stared at the creature, chilled to their core.
Even Yuan Han and Shen Ruyan showed signs of concern.
As the beast loomed, the three Earth Immortals remained wary; their gazes were filled with caution.
When they first sealed this creature, it was no more powerful than a True Immortal.
But it had grown stronger over time, now requiring the full strength of Earth Immortals to contain it.
Yet they had no means to truly subjugate it.
