Chapter 1751: Paving a New Path, The Ascension of the Immortal Domain (Part 2)
The leaders of the immortal sects in the Western Continent had always followed Jiang Chengxuan’s lead, willing to risk everything for him.
However, now that Jiang Chengxuan had personally acknowledged the uncertainties of this endeavor, they had to weigh their options carefully.
After all, the Great Cataclysm had not harmed them significantly. They enjoyed a privileged position, and they were not compelled to take such a huge risk just for a chance at a better future.
“Chengxuan, there is no need for further discussion. No matter what, I must go to the Ancient Realm!”
Amidst the hesitation, only Immortal Yuanhan remained unwavering. His expression was resolute.
He had long since lost his own Dao lineage and had spent years as a member of the Loose Cultivator Alliance. Now that an opportunity had arisen to witness a higher world, how could he let it slip away?
Furthermore, he was only a step away from breaking through to the Heavenly Immortal realm. If he entered the Ancient Realm, this final step would be as natural as flowing water.
“Good! If you have such determination, I will not stop you!”
Jiang Chengxuan welcomed his decision wholeheartedly. Yuanhan Immortal was one of his most trusted confidants, and Jiang Chengxuan had no reason to refuse his request.
“Heavenly Venerable Jiang, we have made our decision! The fate of our descendants is theirs to forge. Immortal cultivation is our lifelong pursuit, and we shall follow it to the end—even if it means death!”
After much contemplation, some immortals eventually chose to follow Jiang Chengxuan, expressing their resolve to depart.
Most, however, decided to stay behind and remain in the Xuanming Immortal Domain.
Jiang Chengxuan did not attempt to persuade them further. He respected their choices, accepting their decisions with understanding.
Those who remained were steadfast and determined—possessing the mental fortitude required to venture into the Ancient Realm.
“Then… let us wait, my friends. Ten years from now, we shall leave the Xuanming Immortal Domain.”
Jiang Chengxuan gazed solemnly into the distance as he spoke.
These ten years would serve as a final farewell for those departing, allowing them to bid goodbye to their loved ones.
It would also give Jiang Chengxuan time to refine the method for traversing between the two realms.
Ten Years Later
A decade passed in the blink of an eye.
Under the waves of turmoil stirred by Jiang Chengxuan’s plan, the entire Xuanming Immortal Domain had spent ten years in anticipation, hesitation, and decision-making.
Countless individuals said their goodbyes, leaving behind family and sects, determined to follow Jiang Chengxuan into the Ancient Realm.
Some even severed ties with their families, leading to bitter conflicts that would never be mended.
Yet whether they left in excitement or sorrow, with longing or with a carefree heart, the fated day finally arrived.
In the Western Continent, at the heart of the Loose Cultivator Alliance, a massive gathering of immortals took place.
The Xuanming Immortal Domain was home to billions of beings, and the number of True Immortal-level cultivators was staggering.
As Jiang Chengxuan looked upon the vast crowd of floating immortals, even he was momentarily taken aback.
Yet this sight also reassured him. The departure of such a large group would free up vast resources and space for those who remained, allowing the Xuanming Immortal Domain to flourish in new ways.
As for those embarking on this journey, they would face the unknown dangers of the Ancient Realm—but also unprecedented opportunities.
To the onlookers, this seemed like a perfect solution.
“This path leads onward, never to return! May none of you regret your choice!”
“The Ancient Realm is vast beyond imagination! No one can predict what awaits us!”
“Life and death are fated! But I, Jiang Chengxuan, vow that as long as you remain within our territory, I will protect you!”
“Of course, you may choose to join other forces in the Ancient Realm. There are no restrictions!”
Jiang Chengxuan stood above the nine heavens, his voice thundering across the skies.
His gaze was solemn, and his imposing aura rippled outward, making the very air tremble with heat.
“We understand, Heavenly Venerable! From this moment forth, we accept our fates!”
The leaders of the various sects bowed deeply, their eyes filled with unwavering resolve.
They had come with their families, fully prepared for what lay ahead.
“Good! Let us set off!”
Jiang Chengxuan’s voice boomed.
With a sweep of his hand, a radiant nine-colored bridge appeared in the sky, vast and resplendent, stretching endlessly into the heavens!
Its end led to a breathtaking realm of ethereal beauty, filled with birdsong and fragrant blossoms.
It was a pseudo-immortal domain—a hidden realm within the Western Continent.
Jiang Chengxuan would use it as a vessel to transport the group into the Ancient Realm.
“Come! My friends, from this day forth, we shall be bound together as kindred spirits in the Ancient Realm!”
“Hahaha! Let us go! Today, we shall witness the true pinnacle of the immortal path!”
Excitement surged through the crowd as the immortals laughed and conversed in exhilaration.
One by one, they followed Jiang Chengxuan onto the celestial bridge, ascending into the skies, disappearing into the mystical realm.
Meanwhile, across the Xuanming Immortal Domain, countless cultivators watched in awe.
Their expressions were complex—some filled with admiration, others with concern, nostalgia, or even regret.
No matter what they felt, from this day onward, they would be separated by two realms, with only a minuscule chance of ever meeting again.
And for those who had chosen to leave, their departure was not just for personal gain—it was also a sacrifice for the Xuanming Immortal Domain.
Every cultivator who remained understood this and felt profound gratitude.
“Chengxuan… may you all remain safe!”
“Farewell, my friends! If fate allows, tell us of the wonders of that distant realm!”
“Elder Jiang! Elders! May you achieve swift success!”
From behind Jiang Chengxuan, Qin Shenwu and the disciples of the Loose Cultivator Alliance called out, their voices filled with both sorrow and blessings.
As they carried the hopes and dreams of countless beings, Jiang Chengxuan and his followers entered the pseudo-immortal domain.
All across the land, immortal cultivators gazed skyward, witnessing this unprecedented spectacle.
A hush fell over the world as the momentous event unfolded.
Jiang Chengxuan alone ascended higher and higher, rising beyond the heavens.
“HUMMMMMM—!”
Without hesitation, Jiang Chengxuan activated his grand plan.
The method he had refined to traverse the two realms ignited, causing celestial phenomena to manifest across the sky.
For a moment, heaven and earth seemed to shift.
His power surged to the peak of the late Xuanming Realm, and the immense force of his domain expanded rapidly, covering the entire hidden realm like an enormous cosmic tapestry!
“Nine-Mystic Bodhi Lotus Lantern, arise!”
Jiang Chengxuan made a sweeping motion, and a divine lotus bloomed within his realm.
Brilliant immortal light cascaded down, illuminating the world with dazzling radiance!
This overwhelming power transcended the limits of the Xuanming Immortal Domain, shocking all who witnessed it.
Even the immortals present—who had long glimpsed the extraordinary—felt their hearts tremble.
The sheer might of Jiang Chengxuan made them feel like mere specks of dust before a celestial sun.
“RUMBLE—!”
The entire pseudo-immortal domain quaked violently.
Jiang Chengxuan’s realm expanded infinitely, as if an enormous hand had grasped the entire realm!
This was the power he wielded—the very reason he dared to undertake this audacious plan!
“Two-Realm Transference! Primordial Runes! Activate!”
As the earth-shattering roar echoed, all held their breath.
At last, as Jiang Chengxuan’s domain and immortal energy reached their peak, he let out a powerful shout—
And the grandest spectacle in the history of the Xuanming Immortal Domain began.
