Chapter 1838: Claiming the Treasure, All Parties in Dilemma (Part 1)

Rumble—!

Roar—!

Amid the terrifying storm within the abyssal pit, deafening explosions echoed continuously,

Tearing apart hundreds of miles in all directions, shattering stars and turning them into vast fields of meteors.

At the same time, blazing divine fire soared into the sky, stirring chaotic turbulence and primordial chaos,

Melting and warping the very fabric of space, unleashing a downpour of fire that blotted out the heavens.

Accompanied by a dragon’s roar, the figures of the Dark Void Profound Venerable and his two companions burst forth from behind the blazing curtain of flame,

Stirring a gust of nether winds as they reappeared in the deep void.

“Hahaha! We’re finally out!”

“Damn that Jiang Chengxuan! Let’s see how arrogant you can be now!”

“Where is that bastard? We must suppress him quickly and seize the Golden Immortal Insight!”

For a moment, the three of them wore ferocious expressions. Their bloodshot eyes gleamed with madness and elation,

Their voices thunderous, venting all their pent-up fury.

Sensing the destructive force left in the wake of Jiang Chengxuan’s battle with the Proud Sword Profound Venerable and others,

Their bodies brimmed with surging immortal power, vibrating with anticipation, eager to strike.

At this very moment, perhaps Jiang Chengxuan and the others had suffered mutual injuries in their clash—

And their timely escape from the array might just present the perfect opportunity to suppress Jiang Chengxuan

And snatch away the fragments of the Golden Immortal Insight!

“There he is!”

With hearts full of excitement, the three quickly took action.

As seconds passed, they soon spotted Jiang Chengxuan’s figure.

With the violent aftermath of the clash finally dispersing, the void around them was left in tatters,

Massive rifts tore through the fabric of space, exposing the deep, lifeless nothingness beyond.

Lingering traces of the ruined heavenly radiance clung to the edges of the void like maggots on bones, burning fiercely,

Rendering the desolation in all its vivid brutality.

And at the far end of everyone’s gaze, Jiang Chengxuan still stood tall,

Though the immortal light shrouding him had clearly dimmed, like the twilight before nightfall.

One of his hands still held firm the great net woven from the Everlasting Divine Manifestation Scripture,

Binding the fragment of the Golden Immortal Insight, preventing its escape.

Cough… cough…

Across from Jiang Chengxuan, the Proud Sword Profound Venerable and his allies also emerged from the residual energy.

Compared to Jiang Chengxuan, they were in an even more miserable state.

After that clash of ultimate forces, their immortal robes were torn,

Hair disheveled, auras wildly unstable—pure chaos.

Clearly, even though it was not the full power of the Ruined Desolate Heaven Scroll,

It was still far beyond what the Proud Sword Profound Venerable’s group could handle.

In this exchange, their Ten Thousand Swords Return to Heaven formation was completely shattered by Jiang Chengxuan,

And they themselves suffered heavy backlash, their immortal energies thrown into disarray.

“A Golden Immortal’s treasure… truly terrifying…”

“Even the Ten Thousand Swords Return to Heaven technique couldn’t withstand it?”

For a rare moment, the battlefield fell into silence, giving them a chance to catch their breath.

The Proud Sword Profound Venerable and the Split Sword Profound Venerable exchanged glances, still shaken as they looked toward Jiang Chengxuan.

Their eyes flickered—not only with disbelief, but also with deep reverence.

They knew full well this wasn’t even Jiang Chengxuan’s full strength—he was still restraining himself.

Yet even so, their combined might using the formation was utterly destroyed in one strike,

A fact that left them utterly shaken.

“Hmph! That brat’s full of tricks. Even while suppressing the Golden Immortal Insight and facing enemies, we must not underestimate him.”

“Let our two sects join forces to suppress him first. We cannot allow him to seize the treasure!”

At this moment, the Dark Void Profound Venerable and his group quickly composed themselves, expressions turning grim,

Stepping through the void to approach the Proud Sword Profound Venerable’s group.

Facing the clearly distrustful eyes of the Proud Sword Profound Venerable, the Dark Void Profound Venerable spoke with gentle persuasion,

Trying to strengthen their alliance and convince them to act together against Jiang Chengxuan.

Hearing this, the expressions of the Proud Sword Profound Venerable’s group shifted. They glanced coldly at the three from the Ghostwalk Immortal Sect without replying.

As a righteous and ancient sect, they despised the Ghostwalk Immortal Sect more than any other—

Lacking both heritage and morals, practitioners of crooked, dark methods.

Deep down, they were extremely unwilling to cooperate with such people.

But when they looked again at Jiang Chengxuan—who barely seemed wounded after the battle—

The Proud Sword Profound Venerable’s group sighed inwardly with helplessness,

And could only nod silently toward the Dark Void Profound Venerable’s group, indicating agreement.

“Good! Now let’s see how arrogant that brat can be!”

Seeing this, the Dark Void Profound Venerable declared coldly, eyes sharp as he stared toward Jiang Chengxuan.

Their gazes met across the battlefield, each party revealing complex emotions.

“Heh… it seems our great powers are far more united than the outside world believes,”

Jiang Chengxuan chuckled calmly in response, his gaze showing not a trace of fear.

As if the six people from two major Golden Immortal forces before him weren’t even worthy opponents.

His words made the faces of the Proud Sword Profound Venerable’s group twitch slightly in discomfort—

A strange awkwardness rising within them.

Meanwhile, the Dark Void Profound Venerable’s group remained unfazed, barking coldly:

“Such a precious treasure, and you want to monopolize it? How selfish! Naturally, we must join forces to deal with you!”

“If you know what’s good for you, hand it over willingly, and perhaps you’ll have a chance to live!”

With the backing of the three from the Heavenly Sword Immortal Sect, the Dark Void Profound Venerable’s group brimmed with confidence.
