Chapter 968: Tie Xiangyao and Zhao Tianfang Both Broke Through
Editor: Henyee Translations
In preparation for the enigmatic opening of the immortal’s cave abode, Jiang Chengxuan never slackened his efforts, always contemplating how to advance his cultivation.
Roaming the various Dao Mastery Exchange Conferences, he reaped substantial benefits, and with the renown of the Haoran Sect, he always managed to acquire the treasures he desired.
Naturally, those cultivators were willing to engage in equitable exchanges, while also seizing the opportunity to forge connections with the master of the Haoran Sect.
During this time, with a wealth of resources accumulated, Jiang Chengxuan made considerable progress in both his magical and Daoist practices, even comprehending numerous divine abilities.
Furthermore, with his mastery over a hundred cultivation arts, his cultivation resources continually regenerated and recycled, a process so efficient that it was the envy of all.
He converted these resources into pills, formations, and weapons, with any surplus available for trade, further enhancing Jiang Chengxuan’s reputation in a different light at the exchange conferences.
With deep pockets and abundant resources, this was his truest portrayal.
Under his patronage, even Shen Ruyan, Jiang Anran, and others no longer worried about finding suitable cultivation resources, and their cultivation progressed by leaps and bounds.
Simultaneously, two individuals closely associated with Jiang Chengxuan were in seclusion.
Thanks to his assistance, they were on the verge of a breakthrough to the Dao Integration Realm today, poised to become pillars of the Haoran Sect.
These two were none other than Jiang Chengxuan’s senior sister and brother, Xie Xiangyao and Zhao Tianfan.
Inspired by Jiang Chengxuan’s advancement to Dao Mastery, they trained even harder than usual.
After all, Jiang Chengxuan joined the Haoran Sect much later than they did and was their junior brother. Yet now, he had already ascended to the position of sect master, how could they not feel spurred on?
Moreover, the upheavals and the dispersal of cosmic energies on the day of Jiang Chengxuan’s breakthrough also brought significant gains to Xie Xiangyao and Zhao Tianfan.
The two exhausted their savings to prepare materials, seizing the opportunity, and had remained in seclusion until today when finally, there was a stir.
In Xie Xiangyao’s cave abode, the illusion of the Five Elements was performed to the extreme, transforming the immaculate cave abode into a myriad of scenes in the blink of an eye.
Now rain fell in a peach grove, peach blossoms fluttering; now celestial maidens soared in the sky, dancing gracefully; now the moonlight bathed a calm lake, fish and birds frolicking…
Xie Xiangyao, a disciple of Qin Shenwu, also cultivated the art of the Five Elements, but unlike Jiang Chengxuan, she focused on transformations within the Five Elements, not their essence.
Around Xie Xiangyao, numerous treasures released energy, drawing on the force of cosmic laws.
Among these, a five-colored divine stone was particularly potent.
This was a protective treasure given to Xie Xiangyao by Qin Shenwu, now aiding her fully in comprehending the cosmic laws.
In the realm of Dao Integration, the most crucial aspect was finding one’s own path.
Xie Xiangyao was struggling with this vital step.
Her eyebrows furrowed slightly, and she exhaled a mist of five-colored light. Around her, the laws began to manifest, ready to emerge.
She heard the sounds of underground fire erupting, tumultuous waves crashing, and the roaring of a forest…
Gradually, the wildly changing illusion of the Five Elements in the cave abode began to return to simplicity, evolving into the most fundamental natural changes—the circulation of the Five Elements.
This was the Dao of the Five Elements gradually merging with Xie Xiangyao’s illusions. Once this step was completed, she would successfully enter the world of Dao Integration Saints.
The moment was immensely prolonged, and it was unclear how much time had passed,
But with Xie Xiangyao’s perseverance, the Dao of the Five Elements transformations was finally comprehended by her.
Buzz—
Her aura surged instantly, her Dao manifested, the Five Elements transformed, instantly filling the entire cave abode.
At this moment, Xie Xiangyao successfully ascended to become a Dao Fusion Saint.
Instantly, she soared up, eager to burst out and laugh heartily.
But as she rushed out of the cave abode, ready to laugh, she awkwardly found three people watching her with curious expressions.
These three were none other than Jiang Chengxuan, Shen Ruyan, and her master, Qin Shenwu, who had been waiting once again.
However, the awkward atmosphere didn’t last long before it was overtaken by joy.
“Senior sister, congratulations on your breakthrough to Dao Fusion!”
Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan congratulated Xie Xiangyao with smiles, and Qin Shenwu also laughed heartily, full of praise.
They had each prepared congratulatory gifts for Xie Xiangyao, all of high rank to match the occasion.
Everyone was genuinely delighted about Xie Xiangyao’s breakthrough.
Before they could engage in much idle chat, another disturbance suddenly emanated from a different cave abode.
The aura of Dao rules fluctuated abruptly, immediately sensed by the group.
“It’s Senior Brother Zhao, he has also achieved Dao Fusion! Truly, it’s a double celebration!” Jiang Chengxuan exclaimed joyfully.
Without wasting a moment, the group hurried to congratulate Zhao Tianfan.
This marked a significant milestone under Qin Shenwu’s tutelage, with three disciples having reached the realm of Dao Fusion, solidifying their status as the leading faction within the Haoran Sect.
During this period of breakthroughs, aside from Jiang Chengxuan’s senior brother and sister, another individual had advanced,
This was Jiang Anran, the disciple of both Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan.
Previously, Jiang Anran had informed them of her intent to break through to Void Returning Realm.
They generously imparted teachings and gifted her numerous treasures to ensure a flawless success.
True to their efforts, at the conclusion of her seclusion, Jiang Anran also successfully advanced to the Returning to the Void realm,
Beaming with joy, she reported her progress to Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan.
The couple was overjoyed and promptly arranged a celebration ceremony for Jiang Anran.
Qin Shenwu also expressed immense pleasure at this news.
He regarded his disciple’s disciple as his own, acknowledging Jiang Anran as a genius within his faction whose future achievements might very well rival those of Xie Xiangyao and others.
With Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan’s support, Jiang Anran’s path was confidently expected to be illustrious.
Amidst a string of joyful events involving his loved ones, Jiang Chengxuan’s mood was exceptionally buoyant.
However, an unexpected storm was gradually brewing and drawing near to everyone.
One day, while meditating in his cave abode, Jiang Chengxuan suddenly sensed a disturbance from within the Haoran Sect.
This instantly put him on high alert, for the source of the disturbance was none other than the Ascension Ancestor Hall of the Haoran Sect—the most sacred place within the sect.
Needless to say, such a disturbance was surely connected to the celestial ancestors of the upper realms,
And anything involving the immortals could hardly be trivial.
Jiang Chengxuan disappeared from his spot in an instant, rushing to the Ascension Ancestor Hall as fast as possible.
There, a blue celestial light continuously shone down from the golden statue of the ancestor.
Within the shimmering celestial light, ancient characters formed a sentence—a message from the immortal ancestor meant for Jiang Chengxuan.
This message profoundly shocked Jiang Chengxuan and filled him with astonishment,
It was a reminder, or rather, a warning from the immortal ancestor.
