Chapter 1499: The Immortal Ascends, Master of Central State_2 Chapter 1499: The Immortal Ascends, Master of Central State_2 Editor: Henyee Translations Yet under such overwhelming power, refusal meant certain death.
They had lived for hundreds of thousands, even millions of yearsaEUR”how could they willingly forfeit their longevity?
More precisely, the sheer power Jiang Chengxuan displayed upon his emergence had already convinced them of their inevitable demise.
Even though their sects faced annihilation, the mere chance to survive seemed like a blessing.
However, despite their reluctant acceptance, as Mingfeng Sovereign and the others finally gave their word, their faces turned pale, bloodless, and utterly despondent.
The foundations of their sects, painstakingly built over millions of years, were severed in an instant.
Even with their steadfast hearts, they could not avoid a crack forming in their Dao minds.
Jiang Chengxuan, however, paid them no further heed.
After delivering his verdict, he turned toward the army of the Western Continent.
In a single instant, his gaze fell upon Shen Ruyan's shining, starry eyes, filled with a brilliance that was impossible to ignore.
The deep yearning within her gaze made Jiang Chengxuan finally smile.
The whole world seemed to bask in the warmth of spring.
The next moment, with a single step, he appeared before Shen Ruyan.
Without hesitation, she threw herself into his arms.
The two embraced in midair, their emotions unspoken but deeply understood.
Feeling his presence, Shen Ruyan finally felt the heavy weight on her heart lifted, replaced by an unparalleled tranquility.
Everything Jiang Chengxuan had entrusted to her, she had accomplished.
Everything he had promised her, he had fulfilled.
“You've worked hard, my wife,” he said gently.
“My husbandaEUR congratulations on breaking through to the Celestial Immortal realm.
I am honored to share in your glory,” she replied, her voice filled with pride and affection.
Their quiet exchange, unheard by others, was imbued with emotions that only the two of them could comprehend.
Without needing more words, they separated and stood side by side, facing the Western Continent cultivators.
Seeing their reverent and astonished gazes, Jiang Chengxuan smiled faintly and said: “Thank you all for your assistance today.
With such righteous people in the Western Continent, how could you not rise to greatness?” “Should troubles arise in the future, I, Jiang, am willing to lend my strength in gratitude for your aid today.” His words, so gentle and vastly different from the decisive demeanor he displayed toward the Earth Immortals of Central State, left the Western Continent cultivators feeling both honored and humbled.
Stunned for a moment, they quickly responded: “Your words are too kind, Celestial Sovereign.
It was only right for us to stand together in times of need.” “Indeed!
The Western Continent has never had a prodigy like you, Celestial Sovereign.
If you had remained hidden, it would have been a loss for us all!” Smiles spread across their faces as they voiced their agreement, their gazes unwavering in determination.
In response, Jiang Chengxuan shook his head with a smile and waved his hand.
The mystical celestial source energy transformed into beams of white light, spreading across the crowd.
In an instant, the energy of creation surged forth, and their injuries healed at a visible speed.
Within moments, they were completely restored, their vitality and the power of their domains fully recovered.
Seeing this, countless disciples of the immortal sects present were filled with awe and bowed in deep respect.
The massive army of cultivators all lowered their heads in unison, creating a scene of unparalleled majesty.
This earth-shattering war, which had erupted so suddenly, began and ended because of Jiang Chengxuan alone.
The Celestial Immortal realm, a level of existence unseen in the Xuanming Immortal Domain for millennia, had finally reappeared.
This news, accompanied by the fall of great sects such as the Minghe Sect, Starry Firmament Sect, Bailong Sect, Ziwei Sect, and Futian Sect, shook the entire Xuanming Immortal Domain.
On that day, Jiang Chengxuan led the armies of the Western and Central Continents into Central State.
He made no attempt to conceal his aura.
Wherever he passed, the heavens and earth fell silent, and the myriad laws of creation stilled in reverence.
The might of a Celestial Immortal compelled even the natural world to bow.
“Isn't that the Minghe Sect and Ziwei Sovereign?
Where did their armies go?
What happened?” “That auraaEUR it's terrifying.
Even I feel a chill down my spine.” “Look at Mingfeng Sovereign and the othersaEUR”they seem so frail.
Could it beaEUR ” As the army of the Western Continent marched openly into Central State, countless immortal sects watched from the shadows, too fearful to act rashly.
At the forefront of the army were the twelve Earth Immortals whose domain powers Jiang Chengxuan had sealed.
Leading the way, their expressions were filled with sorrow and despair.
This sight was even more shocking than when these same Earth Immortals had once led their entire sects into battle.
What could have happened to create such an incomprehensible situation?
Though the onlookers had their suspicions, they dared not confirm them, much less face the truth.
As they continued their silent observation, Jiang Chengxuan paid them no mind.
He allowed them to watch as the Western Continent's forces first entered the Minghe Sect.
There, they tore down the sect's banners, burned its library of Daoist texts, and erased every trace of its identity, leaving only the mark of the Rogue Cultivator Alliance behind.
This act sent waves of terror through the immortal sects of Central State.
A bone-chilling dread seeped into the hearts of every major power.
Erasing their identity and destroying their Dao techniquesaEUR”was this not the same as completely obliterating the sect?
What could have led to this, especially with Mingfeng Sovereign himself guiding the destruction?
It was utterly incomprehensible.
“No!
I must be hallucinating!” “This can't be real!
It's impossible!” Even as disbelief spread, Jiang Chengxuan continued.
After the Minghe Sect, he moved on to the Ziwei Sect, following the same process.
In front of Ziwei Sovereign and the sect's elders and disciples, who all looked utterly defeated, the sect's legacy was erased, leaving behind only tears that fell upon the ruins of their gates.
The process repeated with the Bailong Sect, Futian Sect, Starry Firmament SectaEUR”one after another, these once-dominant sects were brought under the control of the Rogue Cultivator Alliance.
Their Daoist techniques were obliterated by Jiang Chengxuan's unparalleled power, and their resources were shared among the forces of the Western Continent.
For the Western Continent, this was a cause for great celebration.
The distribution of resources from these once-mighty sects promised to elevate their own sects' strength, perhaps even producing new Earth Immortals.
Meanwhile, the immortal sects of Central State finally understood that the Xuanming Immortal Domain was undergoing a seismic shift.
Jiang Chengxuan had ascended to the Celestial Immortal realm.
Though they resisted the idea, the reality was undeniable.
Across the Xuanming Immortal Domain, chaos erupted.
Sects engaged in battles immediately retreated, withdrawing their forces into their strongholds, terrified that Jiang Chengxuan might appear at their doors.
A Celestial ImmortalaEUR”what kind of existence was that?
The fate of the twelve Earth Immortals who opposed Jiang Chengxuan was enough to make the answer clear.
“Everyone, in one hundred days, I, Jiang Chengxuan, shall host the Celestial Immortal Grand Ceremony at the Minghe Sect in Central State.
I hope you will all join me in celebration.” Jiang Chengxuan's voice echoed across the land, reaching every corner of Central State, ensuring no one could miss it.
Every cultivator, regardless of their rank, initially thought they were imagining things.
But as the news spread and confirmations poured in, the truth became undeniable.
The Celestial Immortal Grand Ceremony.
These four words alone heralded a new chapter of legend in the Xuanming Immortal Domain, surpassing even the awe of the calamities of the past million years.
In the hundred days leading up to the ceremony, the entire Xuanming Immortal Domain would be swept into a frenzy.
