A hundred years of cultivating immortals, I'm dying, and Goldfinger came here

A riot in the restricted area is no small matter; it is a major event that cannot be ignored by any place in the ancient realm.

Even a behemoth like the Zhetian Xuanzong was extremely wary of it, and even somewhat panicked.

The level of importance attached to it has risen to the level of a matter of life and death for the entire sect.

Half a month after the envoy from the Zhetian Xuanzong Sect left, a message from the Zhetian Xuanzong Sect reached Jiang Chengxuan.

Such speed surprised Jiang Chengxuan.

After all, the Heavenly Profound Sect still needs to gather more Golden Immortals from other immortal sects to assist them.
This is no simple matter, especially considering that it has been incredibly fast, taking only a dozen days.

However, Jiang Chengxuan didn't have many mixed feelings; on the contrary, he felt a little eager to try.

He had already made thorough preparations for this trip to the restricted area, since it was something that was unavoidable.

Then Jiang Chengxuan will go all out and face it with the strongest mindset.

"All the backup plans and restrictions are ready. Let's go take a look."

Before leaving, Jiang Chengxuan did not forget to make arrangements to prevent a repeat of the incident involving the Desolate Blood Demon Immortal.

With his current strength and the methods he has set up, even a Golden Immortal would not be able to break through them.

It is sufficient to protect the many core areas of the Haoran Xuanzong sect.

Without further hesitation, Jiang Chengxuan stepped out of the Haoran Xuanzong's palace, the coordinates of the Zhetian Xuanzong flashing through his mind.

With a wave of his hand, the space before him shattered, revealing a mysterious gate.

The next moment, he stepped into it, and layers of space rippled outwards.
A flash of light disappeared in an instant, and Jiang Chengxuan's figure vanished into the void.

ancient world.

The vast territory of Zhetian.

This is a vast and boundless territory located in the boundless ancient realm.

As the land under the rule of the powerful Zhetian Xuanzong sect, it is located in one of the dozens of territories in the surrounding area.

As a vast and resource-rich land, abundant in natural treasures and prosperous in abundance, it is truly a place where outstanding people and beautiful scenery abound!

Within this territory live countless nations, where billions of beings thrive and prosper.
Numerous immortal cities stand tall between heaven and earth, giving rise to countless profound lineages that have endured for millennia.

Among them, the most supreme is of course the only one, namely the Zhetian Xuanzong!
Its lineage seems to have existed since the very beginning of this territory, sharing its glory and its hardships.
It has created countless legends and powerful cultivators who stand out from the crowd!
Legend has it that the first ancestor who founded the Zhetian Xuanzong sect may even have been a Hunyuan Daluo Jinxian!
Having traversed countless spatial barriers and crossed countless miles, Jiang Chengxuan finally arrived at this territory.

Stepping out of the spatial portal, Jiang Chengxuan looked down at the world and couldn't help but gleam with admiration at its magnificence.

"My Vast Territory is probably much smaller than this Heavenly Realm, only about one-third of it."

At a single glance, whether judging from the density of the immortal energy or the vastness of the heavens and earth,
Jiang Chengxuan could clearly see the difference between the vast territory and this place.

For a given territory, the resources and spiritual objects of heaven and earth can nurture more immortals.

Immortals who achieve the Great Dao can also give back to the world, and the two complement each other.

This is the hidden strength of a celestial sect. As long as the sect remains intact, even if its talents dwindle one day...
There will also be a day when fortune returns and glory is regained.

This is the biggest gap between the current Haoran Xuanzong and the Zhetian Xianzong, which are truly top-tier forces.

"Is that the Zhetian Xuan Sect over there? It's certainly impressive."

Immediately afterwards, Jiang Chengxuan saw his destination.

In the distant sky, there was a vast expanse of dazzling, flowing light, like an inverted celestial lake.
Scattered like stars in the sky, countless magnificent treasures and jewels adorn the landscape, a tapestry of pearls and jade!
In reality, it was a continent that had been inverted by some force, leaning against the sky.

Among them are clusters of cities and palaces, built with superb craftsmanship, and towering pagodas, which are like crystal, shrouded in celestial light.

It was precisely that ethereal light that lingered and lingered, creating the illusion that it resembled a celestial lake.

With Jiang Chengxuan's keen eyesight, he could see even more.
Layer upon layer of invisible forces and principles of the Dao guarded the lake-like mountain gate, making it appear both real and ethereal, elusive and unreal.

It possesses an even more terrifying majesty, which can still make people feel their minds and spirits shaken even from thousands of miles away.

Without saying another word, Jiang Chengxuan made no attempt to conceal his aura, transforming into a dazzling beam of immortal light and hurtling towards the location of the Zhetian Xuanzong.

As he gradually approached the Zhetian Immortal Sect, he caused a stir among all sides.
Countless immortals discovered him, and were astonished, discussing the matter animatedly:

"Who is that? How dare they act so arrogantly and domineeringly on the territory of the Heavenly Profound Sect!"

"Such a powerful aura! It wasn't affected by the might of the Zhetian Xuanzong. Could it be a powerful figure from the Zhetian Xuanzong clan?"

"No, I have seen the lord of the Heavenly Profound Sect from afar, and he does not look like that."

Clearly, the area around the Tianxuan Sect is a no-fly zone for immortals, especially for any outsiders.

Jiang Chengxuan's actions also drew the attention of the Tianxuan Sect to his existence.
However, the scene that countless immortals imagined did not come to pass.

The only response from the Zhetian Xuanzong sect was to send three people out of the sect to intercept Jiang Chengxuan near the mountain gate.

"Jiang Zu! Welcome, welcome! We have been waiting for you for a long time!"

"Welcome, Ancestor Jiang!" "Welcome, Ancestor Jiang!"

Then, from the void above, he bowed to him and greeted him with a beaming smile.

This scene undoubtedly shocked and stunned countless immortals who were watching.

They had never seen anyone come to the Zhetian Xuanzong Sect and receive such treatment!

"Everyone."

Jiang Chengxuan did not show any arrogance, but nodded back to each of them.

The person at the very front was the envoy from the Zhetian Xuanzong sect who had come looking for him earlier. The other two...

Wearing the attire of the Zhetian Xuanzong sect, he was clearly an elder of the sect.

"Please! Our Grand Elder is already waiting."

Because of the urgency of the situation in the restricted area, the three did not have much time to talk with Jiang Chengxuan.

They got straight to the point and led the way, quickly bringing him into the Zhetian Xuanzong sect.

Following the three, Jiang Chengxuan also gained entry into the sect of this powerful force.

From the outside, it appears as an upside-down continent, but in reality, walking on it doesn't feel out of place or strange.

If I had to describe it in one word, it would be "grand".

The towering palaces and cities were all forged with various precious immortal materials, and their sects were like miniature worlds.

It is a world unto itself, with numerous disciples and factions, each developing their own territory.

Amidst shimmering celestial clouds and streaks of starlight, the three gradually ventured deeper into the magnificent and vast landscape.

The buildings here grew smaller, yet increasingly imposing and towering. The aura of immortals was faint, but those present were all powerful figures. While the people around Jiang Chengxuan glanced at him with interest, most maintained a calm and welcoming attitude.

Only a few were extremely arrogant, seemingly harboring resentment.

Jiang Chengxuan didn't care about them at all, ignoring them one by one without changing his expression.

He suspected that there must be disagreements within the Tianxuan Sect regarding how to handle the riot in the forbidden area.

Some might support calling in outside help as the fastest and safest way to resolve the issue.
Some people, however, rejected outsiders and did not want their family scandals to be aired in public, lest they tarnish the prestige of the Zhetian Xuanzong sect.

"We've arrived. Jiang Zu, please come in. Inside are the powerful figures who will be in charge of the forbidden area this time."

Finally, Jiang Chengxuan was led to a building that resembled a sheer cliff, which looked like a white jade tablet.
The towering cliffs, carved with intricate totems, exude an aura of mysterious power.

Jiang Chengxuan nodded, and after watching the three leave, he stepped into the building without the slightest hesitation.

As the gate opened, dazzling celestial light shone in, flowing and filling the space.

Inside the main hall, as if cast in white jade, several thrones were inlaid on a platform at the far end.

At this moment, five figures were already seated in the throne room. When Jiang Chengxuan pushed open the door and entered, they all turned their gazes toward him.

Without a doubt, everyone sitting there was at the Golden Immortal realm, especially the two in the very center.
His power surpassed that of others, clearly indicating that he was no longer in the early stage of the Golden Immortal realm.

They were dressed in the robes of the Haoran Xuanzong sect, clearly indicating they were the Golden Immortal Grand Elders of the Haoran Xuanzong sect.
The other three were Golden Immortal cultivators whom Haoran Xuanzun had painstakingly recruited to enter the forbidden zone and suppress the riot.

Among the three, there was one whom Jiang Chengxuan recognized all too well, who smiled at him with an expression that seemed to have expected this all along.
If it is not Elder Yun Shi, then who is it?
It seems he also coveted something from the Zhetian Xuanzong sect and agreed to their request for help.

"Could it be the Lord of Righteousness, Jiang Chengxuan?"

In the silence, the immortal sitting in the very center spoke first, asking in a deep voice that echoed throughout the room.

His face was aged, with thick hair and beard, like a white-haired lion, exuding an imposing aura without anger.

Upon hearing this, Jiang Chengxuan remained composed and unassuming, slowly ascending into the air. He found a throne and sat down.

He then replied, "Indeed. May I ask your esteemed names?"

Meanwhile, the other immortals, unsurprised, already knew his information.

In response to Jiang Chengxuan's question, the group took turns introducing themselves.

"I am Zhe Chuan, the Grand Elder of the Zhe Tian Xuan Sect."

"I am Zhe Ri, the Grand Elder of the Zhe Tian Xuan Sect."

"I am the master of the Xianjiang Xuanzong sect, the Great Immortal of Xianjiang."

"I am the master of the Mysterious Sect of the Hair God, the Great Immortal of the Hair God."

"Hehe, I don't need to introduce myself much, young friend Cheng Xuan."

After saying this, Jiang Chengxuan smiled calmly, nodded, and said no more.

There's not much to say about these people; they are all patriarchs of forces that have some connection with the Zhetian Xuanzong.

"Alright, the situation is urgent, so I won't bother with formalities."

"I believe you all understand the purpose of my Zhetian Xuanzong inviting you here."

"Please ask any questions you may have. If not, now that everyone is here, we may depart for the restricted area immediately."

After everyone had gotten to know each other, the white-haired old man named Zhechuan spoke earnestly,
The matter concerning that restricted area was handled with considerable urgency.

After these words, everyone knew there was no need to waste the opportunity, and the Immortal of Xianjiang was the first to ask:
"What kind of riot has occurred in the Deep Earth Forbidden Zone? Elder Zhechuan, could you please explain in detail?"

His question was very pointed, and it touched on the doubts of Jiang Chengxuan and the others, so everyone listened attentively.

"Yes, our sect sent a Golden Immortal elder to investigate. Although he returned severely injured, he managed to bring back some information thanks to the immortal treasures he possessed."

As Jiang Chengxuan and the others had predicted, in the hands of the Zhetian Xuanzong,
Sure enough, there was more detailed information about the restricted area.

"Within the forbidden zone of the deep earth, a hidden tide of soul beasts has seemingly emerged!"

Then, Zhechuan's eyes narrowed, and he slowly said...

Upon hearing this, everyone was shocked, as they had all heard of the Dark Tide of Soul Beasts.

The Dark Tide of Soul Beasts has been documented several times during the forbidden zone riots that occurred in the ancient realm.
Therefore, even Jiang Chengxuan had seen snippets of information about it in ancient books.

It was a strange movement related to an ancient ferocious beast, caused by some unknown reason.

Within the forbidden zone, the remnants of numerous ferocious beasts from the past and future will inexplicably gather, eventually forming a terrifying beast tide!
The ancient ferocious beasts that can appear within the Dark Tide of Soul Beasts are all extremely terrifying beings.

Their souls are often corrupted by the ominous power of forbidden zones, causing all sorts of terrifying mutations!
Furthermore, it can be called a beast tide precisely because the number of ancient ferocious beast remnants that gather each time is extremely large.

This kind of restricted area riot can be said to be among the most dangerous of all known riots!
"The Dark Tide of Soul Beasts. No wonder even with the power of the Zhetian Xuanzong, they had to summon us."

At this point, everyone suddenly realized why, even with the strength of the Zhetian Xuanzong, it still needed to rely on external assistance.

This undercurrent of soul beasts is extremely unstable and could very well last for a long time, or even summon an unimaginable army of ferocious beasts.

The best way to deal with this riot is to give it no chance.

At the outset of the uprising, all forces were mobilized to suppress its source.

"Your clan is known for its remarkable ability to make a move, whether it's a subtle one or a truly astounding one!"

Immediately, even the old man Yun Shi was amazed and couldn't help but sigh.

Upon hearing this, the two Grand Elders of the Zhetian Xuanzong Sect frowned slightly and said again:

"This time, my Zhetian Xuanzong will bear the main responsibility for suppressing the beast tide. You all just need to provide cover."

"Presumably the envoy has already stated that our Zhetian Xuanzong is willing to pay a price, which could be a request, a celestial treasure, or something similar."
Before we depart, please state your conditions.

Undoubtedly, Zhe Chuan was very sincere and generous; after his words, Jiang Chengxuan and the others present all laughed.
His eyes gleamed, and he was eager to try.

Clearly, those who didn't refuse at the beginning and were able to come here are all courageous people who won't easily back down.

Since the Zhetian Xuanzong sect can afford the reward, what does a little danger matter?

"In that case, I want a Golden Immortal treasure, specifically one of the offensive type!"

Immediately, the patriarch of the Hao Shen Xuan Sect made no attempt to conceal his greed and spoke with boundless greed.

A Golden Immortal Treasure, fine, but it's an offensive one?!
This request seemed like an exorbitant demand, drawing attention from Jiang Chengxuan and the others present.
He looked at Orikawa, wondering what his reaction would be.

"can."

What shocked them even more was that after Zhechuan had been thinking in silence for a long time, he actually agreed without any expression!
This made Elder Yun and the others gasp in shock.

He couldn't help but gasp inwardly. (End of Chapter)
