Chapter 1807: Golden Immortal Insights, Suggestions for a Duel (Part 2)
The star emitted an aura of grandeur and ancientness, proclaiming it as the true core of this realm, the most crucial item within the entire Ancient Golden Immortal Cave.
“Mm.”
In an instant, a feeling of reverence arose within the hearts of the three. Their auras surged, transforming into beams of immortal light that pierced through the dark void.
Soon, the dazzling star before them enlarged at a visible speed. It appeared even more ethereal, as if a more refined nebula was forming, constantly shifting its shape, obscured and revealed in turns.
Around the deep space, the various Immortal Sect forces had indeed gathered, waiting solemnly.
The arrival of Jiang Chengxuan and his companions undoubtedly attracted the attention of others. Almost immediately, Jiang Chengxuan felt a murderous intent closing in on him.
He glanced over, and once again, it was the trio of Wildblood Demon Immortal and Beast Cang Demon Venerable, along with some other familiar faces.
Naturally, Jiang Chengxuan had long since gotten used to their hostility. Under their resentful gazes, he chose to ignore them, infuriating the Wildblood Demon Immortal and others to the point of gritting their teeth in anger.
“Mm?”
But just as Jiang Chengxuan shifted his gaze, he also felt a cold and malicious stare from another direction.
Turning to look, he saw the team from the Youxing Immortal Sect. The Grand Elder of Youxing Immortal Sect, who had once tried to betray his allies and barely escaped death at Jiang Chengxuan's hands, was now glaring at him with intense hatred.
In front of him stood Youxing Daxian, dressed in dark green and emanating a chilling presence. His eyes flickered with a strange, almost mocking light as he looked at Jiang Chengxuan.
“They've arrived.”
At this moment, Yun Shi also seemed to sense something and spoke in a low voice, breaking the eerie silence.
“Ancestor, we've kept you waiting!”
“Yun Zu!”
Yun Tian and Yun Di immediately responded, joining Jiang Chengxuan as they landed behind Yun Shi, blocking the hostile intentions from the Wildblood Demon Immortal and Youxing Daxian.
The four great Golden Immortal forces had finally reunited. The atmosphere in the deep space grew tense, as if a pin drop could be heard.
It was reminiscent of the first time they had arrived at the Ancient Golden Immortal Cave, where everyone stood on edge before the entrance, swords drawn and ready.
But now, the tension in the air seemed even more palpable, for the elusive star before them kept shifting and emitting a deadly attraction.
Undoubtedly, this was the most precious treasure within the Ancient Golden Immortal Cave. Though its true form was still unknown, its presence alone made the hearts of the four Golden Immortals burn with desire, their fighting spirit unrestrained.
At this point, Jiang Chengxuan couldn't help but assess the surrounding forces.
Compared to when they first arrived, the four great Golden Immortal forces had suffered some losses.
The Wildblood Sect, needless to say, had been severely weakened, with three of their Demon Venerables battered and injured by Jiang Chengxuan. Even Wildblood Demon Immortal himself was not in perfect condition.
Youxing Immortal Sect had also suffered, with one of their Grand Elders killed by Jiang Chengxuan, leaving only three members remaining.
The Yun Lan Sect was similar, with Yun Zhuang having lost combat strength due to betrayal, now down one member.
Even the Tian Jian Immortal Sect, who had only met Jiang Chengxuan once in the Ancient Golden Immortal Cave, had seen their three Grand Elders seriously wounded, their energy dimmed.
Clearly, all four forces had faced unexpected dangers within the cave.
Looking at this, it became apparent that none of the four great Golden Immortal forces had emerged from the Ancient Golden Immortal Cave unscathed. This was enough to demonstrate how dangerous this place truly was.
“Ancestor, what exactly is this place?”
At this moment, Yun Tian subtly asked Yun Shi, hoping to learn more before the upcoming battle.
Yun Shi remained silent, transmitting to Jiang Chengxuan and the others:
“This core area of the cave is where the owner of the cave cultivated. The star before us that keeps shifting — I suspect it might be the Ancient Golden Immortal's insights from a million years of cultivation…”
This revelation revealed the true nature of the star and shook Jiang Chengxuan and the others to their core. They now understood why it was placed in the very heart of the cave.
The Ancient Golden Immortal's million years of cultivation insights were equivalent to his complete legacy. If anyone could acquire them, they would undoubtedly reach the next realm!
Even Golden Immortals would benefit immensely from such a treasure!
These insights, in cultivation, would usually not remain behind, or would only leave a small trace. They wouldn't form a star of this magnitude.
Whether it was due to some mysterious law of the Ancient Golden Immortal Cave or some method of the Golden Immortal himself, this star had taken shape.
Even Jiang Chengxuan, upon learning that this was the Ancient Golden Immortal's cultivation insights, couldn't help but be filled with excitement. For him, who was preparing to break through to Golden Immortal, this treasure was priceless.
Insights were the most mysterious and difficult part of a cultivator's breakthrough. Many talented individuals were trapped by these bottlenecks, making it a divide between genius and ordinary people.
Only by obtaining these legacies could a cultivator bypass this barrier the fastest, saving countless years of breakthrough time. Not to mention, the insights of a Golden Immortal!
If Jiang Chengxuan could acquire this treasure, his chances of breaking through to Golden Immortal would increase dramatically, and the time required for the breakthrough would be reduced by tens of thousands of years.
However, despite everyone's desire for the treasure, no one knew how to act immediately. There was a layer of restriction on the insights, and no one knew what would happen if they touched it.
As a result, the four Golden Immortal forces had gathered here but had yet to take action, hesitant to fight for the treasure.
“Everyone, this can't go on forever. We can't just wait for it to appear on its own, can we?”
After a deep silence, Youxing Daxian, whose personality was erratic, could no longer hold back and suddenly spoke, breaking the stillness.
“Hmph! Easy for you to say. How precious this treasure is. If it's damaged, wouldn't it all be for nothing?”
Upon hearing this, Wildblood Demon Immortal finally paused his hostility toward Jiang Chengxuan, snorting coldly and voicing the concern that everyone shared.
In response, Youxing Daxian chuckled wickedly, his eyes shifting. He said:
“I'm quite familiar with these kinds of legacy treasures. Why not let me handle it? I'll break the restriction, and then we can each rely on our own abilities, how about that?”
It was rumored in the ancient world that he had once obtained the legacy of an ancient evil cultivator, which gave his words some credibility.
However, at this moment, even if he truly had a method to break the restriction, who would trust him to handle the Ancient Golden Immortal's insights?
Who would let him touch the treasure, given his notorious reputation?
Almost immediately, Yun Shi rebutted:
“Heh, you sly fox, who would trust you? Don't hold onto such foolish hopes.”
Even the usually solemn Tian Jian Elder agreed:
“Indeed.”
Apparently, Youxing Daxian had anticipated this reaction. He laughed wickedly, undeterred by the rejection.
He spread his hands in helplessness and said:
“Then are we really going to just sit here and wait? As long as this treasure doesn't reveal itself, we won't leave?”
His words were not without merit. Although the restriction on the treasure kept changing, there was a sense that it would soon break. But how long would that take? No one knew.
This caused Yun Shi and the others to furrow their brows, falling into deep thought.
“Perhaps we should hold an open and fair duel here, with the four of us as judges. Whoever breaks the oath, the other three will join forces to kill them.”
“Whoever wins the duel will take half of the treasure.”
At this moment, Youxing Daxian suggested again, offering a solution.
This suggestion seemed more feasible, making the other three Golden Immortals pause and consider.
If there were a way to divide the treasure without damaging it, a fair duel might indeed be one of the best options. Moreover, only half of the treasure would be awarded to the winner, which was something that could be accepted by the others.
