Chapter 1822: Fearless Response, A Bold Scheme (Part 1)
A venerable Golden Immortal cultivator—an ancient progenitor of a Golden Immortal sect—at a moment like this, casually set aside all decorum and flung down a challenge at Jiang Chengxuan!
This sudden turn of events stunned everyone present—even Jiang Chengxuan himself had been taken completely by surprise.
“Your Excellency, you already stand among the Golden Immortals—why stoop to our level? I fear this is most improper…” Yun Tian and Yun Di exchanged uneasy glances as they tried to reason with the Arterial Blood Demon Immortal, appealing to his pride and reputation to make him withdraw his challenge.
“Hmph! My decisions are mine alone—none of your business!”
Before they could protest further, the Demon Immortal's expression darkened. With a cold snort, his Golden Immortal aura flared outward, bombarding Yun Tian and Yun Di like a crushing weight. Their minds grew muddled, their retorts dying on their lips.
But he paid them no more heed. Stepping past the two stunned celestial beings, he fixed a frosty glare on Jiang Chengxuan.
Jiang Chengxuan met his gaze without flinching—their eyes locked in the boundless void, the tension between them crackling like drawn blades.
“How about it? If you're too scared, just admit defeat! Ha!” The Demon Immortal curled his lips in a malicious grin, his laughter echoing through the deep expanse.
His words sounded like a courtesy, a reminder that the duel was perfectly within the rules and that Jiang Chengxuan still had the option to concede. But the mockery hid darker designs.
He harbored a long-standing grudge against Jiang Chengxuan and the Yunlan Sect—his challenge was never about a fair fight. Whether he won or lost would not change the sect's position. Only a contest between Golden Immortals could earn the crucial five points needed to surpass the Yunlan Sect's current four—and that required both contestants to truly commit, just as when Master Youxing faced Elder Yunshi.
From the start, his goal was simple: force Jiang Chengxuan to admit defeat, shatter his spirit, and publicly humiliate him. Though it seemed petty, it would deal a psychological blow to the young cultivator's resolve. A true sovereign's Path demanded fearlessness and relentless momentum; any sign of hesitation would fatally undermine Jiang Chengxuan's confidence.
If Jiang Chengxuan capitulated now, his trial of spirit would end prematurely. If he accepted the duel, the Demon Immortal would unleash every hidden trick to break him—and leave an even deeper scar on his soul!
Although the rules limited a Golden Immortal to the power of a Profound Immortal in such a match, everyone knew that the gap between Golden and Profound Immortals went far deeper than just cultivation level—it encompassed Dao principles, spirit, techniques, and more. No matter how formidable Jiang Chengxuan was, the Demon Immortal possessed countless clandestine methods. This was a deadly trap.
Jiang Chengxuan immediately understood: whether he fought or fled, the outcome was bleak. Perhaps Youxing Daxian and this Arterial Blood Demon Immortal were in cahoots—the first challenge drew Elder Yunshi away, creating the perfect moment for this scheme. With Elder Yunshi unable to intervene, Jiang Chengxuan's life hung by a thread.
Recalling all this, a chill swept through him even as a silent fury kindled in his heart. He longed to wipe that haughty smile from the Demon Immortal's face.
“Do you really think he'll accept the challenge? He's a Golden Immortal—no Profound Immortal would dare provoke one!”
“I doubt it. If he doesn't realize the danger, he could be destroyed. I smell a conspiracy…”
“Why would the Blood Demon Immortal stoop to this? What grudge does he hold?”
All around, cultivators murmured, shocked and uneasy. Even Elder Tianjian's gaze flickered with thought. But he said nothing—combat was a matter of will, and no one could decide another's fate. The choice lay entirely with Jiang Chengxuan.
