Chapter 1841: Collapse Without Attack, Breaking the Peak (Part 2)

At the critical moment, Jiang Chengxuan smoothly retracted the suppressive force of the formation.

As a result, the Dark Void Venerable felt the invisible wall before him suddenly vanish, and freedom returned to him.

However, Jiang Chengxuan was already right before his eyes. The moment he charged forward, the two collided violently!

“Rumble—!”

There was no time to react. Jiang Chengxuan’s terrifying power erupted instantly. The Dark Void Venerable’s eyes bulged in shock.

Unable to dodge, he could only grit his teeth and pour all his strength into resisting the blow.

Amid the deafening explosion, the entire deep-space universe quaked. A brilliant, divine sun manifested out of nowhere.

Its destructive power unleashed a mighty storm.

“Urgh—!”

But in this direct clash, how could the Dark Void Venerable possibly be Jiang Chengxuan’s match—

Especially with the added might of the Ninefold Bodhi Lotus Lantern bolstering him?

From the epicenter of the collision, chaos and turbulent energy surged in all directions. The Dark Void Venerable was sent flying, howling in pain.

“You damn wretch!”

“How dare you be so arrogant!”

At that moment, two other elders of the Ghost Path Immortal Sect arrived behind Jiang Chengxuan.

Seeing their comrade sent flying in a single exchange, their faces twisted with fury. Without hesitation, one clawed at his heart, the other at his head!

“Buzz—!”

Just then, Jiang Chengxuan once again activated the restrictive force of the Ten-Thousand-Generation Manifestation Scripture.

At the very instant the attacks were about to land, the restriction flared again, halting the two mid-strike.

That fleeting moment was all Jiang Chengxuan needed. He turned, eyes sharp as fire, locking onto the two elders.

At the same time, large swathes of scripture characters surged through the void like lightning—

Merging and adhering to his chest and crown, forming a barrier.

“Boom—!”

The moment the barrier appeared, the two elders’ strikes finally landed. Their eerie netherforce exploded—

Tearing through space, unleashing a deafening blast as a destructive aura soared skyward, threatening to devour all.

However, the Ghost Path elders felt no joy from this scene.

Because from the chaotic aftershocks, they could still sense that divine, sacred power—it hadn’t been extinguished.

It had merely dimmed slightly.

This meant that Jiang Chengxuan had nearly flawlessly neutralized their desperate joint strike—and remained completely unscathed!

“Fast enough—but still not strong enough.”

Sure enough, just as they feared, Jiang Chengxuan’s calm voice emerged from the chaotic vortex—

A direct critique of their attack.

Hearing this, the two elders wanted to curse him to the heavens, but reason prevailed.

They retreated immediately—daring not to linger even a second longer.

But how could Jiang Chengxuan let the opportunity slip? Both hands shifted from fists to claws, rending space as he lunged after them.

The golden sea of stars behind him flared with sharp, slicing energy at his will.

That crushing momentum surged—catching the two Ghost Path elders completely off guard.

“No—!”

“Everyone strike! Stop him!”

In just a few exchanges, the two found themselves in dire peril.

Faced with Jiang Chengxuan’s pursuit, their eyes turned bloodshot as they hastily summoned their immortal treasures in defense.

Jiang Chengxuan showed no mercy. Behind him, within his mysterious inner world, the Ninefold Bodhi Lotus Lantern glowed brilliantly—

Unleashing its peak immortal force, pouring into his body.

This strike—he intended to cripple the Ghost Path’s combat strength in one blow, ending the battle in a blink!

“Buzz—!”

But just then, realizing something was wrong, the Sword Venerable Ao Jian and his comrades arrived in time.

The three of them rode their respective heavenly swords, slicing through the raging storm and descending like a celestial river.

“Boom—!”

In an instant, chaotic sword intent, eerie netherforce, and divine scripture power exploded together.

Blinding light filled the deep-space battlefield, shattering countless stars.

This collision—comparable to a true clash between Golden Immortals—was nothing short of apocalyptic.

After all, aside from Jiang Chengxuan who fought like a Golden Immortal, there were five other late-stage Profound Immortals unleashing their full might.

Neither side held back—one could only imagine the devastation.

Moments later, as the dust settled, Jiang Chengxuan stood tall amid golden light, his expression unchanged.

In contrast, the surviving elders of the Ghost Path and Sword Heaven Sects all appeared grim and silent.

This clash had thoroughly reshaped their understanding of Jiang Chengxuan’s power. With his full strength unleashed—

He was far more terrifying than anyone had anticipated.

Even though they struck hastily, all six of them had failed to shake Jiang Chengxuan in the slightest—

This alone revealed a chasm between them, one numbers alone could not bridge.

“Forget it. We give up. He… is an enemy we cannot defeat.”

Sword Venerable Ao Jian fell silent for a while, eyes flickering, before speaking first.

The fighting spirit he’d painstakingly built collapsed in an instant—memories of their first encounter and Jiang Chengxuan’s oppressive aura surged in his mind.

All his will to fight evaporated.

“This…!”

The Rift Sword Venerable said nothing. Another Sword Sect cultivator was visibly shocked.

He had never faced Jiang Chengxuan head-on—and now, watching even the proud Ao Jian surrender,

He was deeply shaken.

He wasn’t ignorant or suicidal. Seeing his comrades defeated so thoroughly, doubt crept into his heart.

And looking toward the Ghost Path elders—ashen-faced and humiliated—and then at the unmoved, cold-eyed Jiang Chengxuan in the distance…

He suddenly understood.

“Then… so be it.”

In the end, he too agreed to withdraw from the alliance targeting Jiang Chengxuan.

“You! Cowards!”

“Spineless traitors!”

Naturally, the Ghost Path elders were furious, cursing them with icy hearts.

No one could have foreseen it: the alliance that had been so eager to besiege Jiang Chengxuan—

Had collapsed completely after just a few of his blows.

“Heh… a wise decision.”

As for the Sword Sect elders retreating to the edge of space, ignoring the Ghost Path’s insults—

Jiang Chengxuan did not press the attack. Instead, he offered rare praise.

From beginning to end, both sides had shown a sliver of restraint—a thread of mutual understanding.

But the same could not be said for the Ghost Path elders.

With the Sword Sect out, they were left alone to face Jiang Chengxuan—

And Jiang Chengxuan would not simply let them walk away.

Even if it was just to set an example, he would cut them down.

Not to mention—he and the Ghost Path Immortal Sect had old scores to settle.

“This is hopeless! Retreat!”

At last, the Ghost Path elders sensed the breath of death looming.

Without the protection of their Ghost Immortal Patriarch, they were in mortal danger.

One of them cried out—and in a heartbeat—

It was impossible to tell who moved first—each of them fled, merging into netherforce like wraiths, attempting to escape.

“Hmph!”

But Jiang Chengxuan was already prepared. With a cold snort, he unleashed the Ten-Thousand-Generation Manifestation Scripture in full.

Before the nether realm could even open, countless scripture characters transformed into chains of light—

Sealing the surrounding hundred miles completely!

The terrifying restriction was so strong, even time itself seemed to freeze!
