Chapter 1098: Rushing to the Eastern Sea
Editor: Henyee Translations
The seal beneath the Eastern Sea had existed since time immemorial. Even the local forces that had lived there for generations couldn’t fathom what lay beneath.
The method of creating such a massive chain-formed seal was ancient. Even Jiang Chengxuan had only come across it in ancient texts, stating that such sealing techniques were used by ancient cultivators from tens of thousands of years ago.
This indicated that the seal beneath the Eastern Sea might be a relic from the last great celestial calamity.
Because of this, no one knew its secrets, as those who did might have perished in that calamity.
“We must reinforce the seal under the Eastern Sea; we cannot let it truly shatter…”
This conclusion arose within Jiang Chengxuan’s mind. Subsequently, scenes of anomalies in the Eastern Sea flashed before his eyes.
Following intense tremors and explosions, the world of divination collapsed, and his consciousness instantly returned to his physical body.
“Boom!”
Under the powerful backlash of fate, the smaller Mysterious Heavenly Dao Array couldn’t avoid being shattered once again.
The precious materials and treasures, collected by the combined efforts of the sects, were all turned to dust, dispersing in the wind.
The demand for resources during the calamity period was horrifying, with centuries of accumulated precious items consumed in just a few years.
If it weren’t for the united efforts of all sects, it would have been impossible to gather such resources with just a few sects.
“How are you, my husband?”
Seeing Jiang Chengxuan stand up, Shen Ruyan gracefully approached him.
Forcing a smile, Jiang Chengxuan recounted everything he had seen in the divination.
Upon hearing this, Shen Ruyan revealed a tranquil smile and said, “So, we now have a target, my husband. This time, it’s all on you.”
Her words clearly carried a comforting intent for Jiang Chengxuan. Ever since the celestial calamity showed its signs, Jiang Chengxuan hadn’t had a moment of relaxation.
Shen Ruyan had noticed this and chose to stay quietly by his side, never showing any signs of anxiety.
“Wife…”
Seeing this, Jiang Chengxuan felt warmth in his heart. Despite the looming celestial calamity, his side was never dark.
It was Shen Ruyan’s companionship and the trust from his allies that kept him going.
“Alright! Let’s inform the sects and head to the Eastern Sea!”
“I want to see what’s really going on beneath the Eastern Sea.”
Soon, Jiang Chengxuan’s message was conveyed to the sects, detailing everything he had deduced from the smaller Mysterious Heavenly Dao Array.
The message provided the first real insight into the true nature of the Eastern Sea’s seal and the impending crisis there.
Upon learning about the instability of the Eastern Sea’s seal, the sect leaders all wore solemn expressions. They understood the gravity of the situation and knew they had to head to the Eastern Sea immediately.
…
Within the Haoran Sect, before the Haoran Dragon Seal, Jiang Chengxuan, Shen Ruyan, and Qin Shenwu stood with their hands behind their backs.
Behind them were the elders of the Haoran Sect, all of whom were above the Dao Integration stage. This gathering signified the preparation for a full-scale war.
Jiang Chengxuan’s message to the sects stated that the movement of the Haoran Sect’s celestial light would signal the assembly to depart for the Eastern Sea.
At this moment, the Haoran Dragon Seal was continuously emitting grand celestial light, maintaining a sanctuary of purity.
However, if they were to head to the Eastern Sea, they could not do so without the power of the immortal treasure. They had to give their all to ensure the seal beneath the Eastern Sea remained intact.
Fortunately, the immortal treasure that protected the sect’s fortune was mystically linked to the power of fortune.
Even if Jiang Chengxuan took the Haoran Dragon Seal with him, it would leave a shadow behind, maintaining the stability of the fortune and suppressing the darkness.
“Let’s go.”n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
“Mm.”
With a solemn nod, Jiang Chengxuan reached out to grasp the Haoran Dragon Seal. Instantly, an immense and mysterious power flowed into him, emitting layers of celestial light, making him appear as if surrounded by a divine aura.
Simultaneously, the celestial light pillar that connected to the heavens shifted, aligning itself above Jiang Chengxuan.
“Rumble!”
Within a few breaths, the celestial lights from various locations within the Floodgate Realm began to move in unison. Numerous grand celestial lights formed trajectories in the sky, dispelling the darkness and casting multicolored glows across the land.
The scene was breathtaking, indicating that this might be the Floodgate Realm’s last line of defense against the celestial calamity.
Should these celestial lights fail to bring victory, the scattering of these lights would signify the Floodgate Realm’s descent into complete destruction.
“Hummm!”
Ripples spread through the heavens and earth, and waves of extraordinary celestial light began to oscillate. Using the power of the immortal treasure, Jiang Chengxuan enveloped Shen Ruyan, Qin Shenwu, and the Haoran Sect’s members.
In an instant, a celestial light shot out from beneath him, extending into the sky, forming a path leading directly to the Eastern Sea.
Following suit, other sects also created magnificent celestial light pathways, appearing as countless rainbows in the sky.
“Let’s go!”
With a unified call, sect members cloaked in celestial light stepped onto these pathways, rapidly heading toward the Eastern Sea.
Countless cultivators of the Floodgate Realm watched in anticipation, silently praying for these warriors to bring hope.
…
On their way to the Eastern Sea, Jiang Chengxuan and others soon gathered together. The familiar figures from the battle against the Demonic Sect reappeared, their faces filled with determination.
“Lord Jiang!”
“Daoist Jiang!”
Greeting each other with heavy expressions, they refrained from speaking further, silently focusing on the path ahead.
The celestial calamity had twisted the space of the Floodgate Realm, making it seem like an alien world. Without the power of the immortal treasures, reaching the Eastern Sea would be a formidable task.
“Roar!”
As they moved farther from their respective sects, faint roars echoed through the void. Malignant energies suddenly surged within the celestial light, spreading like blood-red threads. One after another, demonic shadows emerged from within, lunging at them.
“You court death!”
In an instant, Jiang Chengxuan’s eyes flashed with cold light, and he unleashed his power to strike back.
