Chapter 838: Five Elements Annihilation Radiance
Undoubtedly, everyone’s concern now centered on Zhao Tianfan’s situation.
However, as much as outsiders wished to intervene, such matters proved difficult.
Ultimately, everything depended on him.
Back at the scene,
After Xie Xiangyao left Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan, Jiang Chengxuan informed Shen Ruyan before returning to his cultivation cave abode.
Having just advanced to the Seethrough stage, he recognized many areas for significant improvement.
He aimed to utilize this period to maximize his strength.
Among his priorities was integrating his Five Elements Annihilation Divine Light with the Five Elements Aureola to forge a new divine power.
This new power would possess unparalleled offensive capabilities while also serving as a formidable defense mechanism, effectively combining attack and defense in a single rule-based divine power.
To meld these two powers into one, Jiang Chengxuan spent another three years in seclusion.
He successfully merged them, naming the result the Five Elements Annihilation Radiance.
By this time, the war between the righteous and demonic sects had escalated to its most intense phase.
Upon emerging from seclusion, Jiang Chengxuan learned from Shen Ruyan that more than half of the Void Returning elders from the Haoran Sect and Thunderclap Valley had already departed for the battlefield.
He took a deep breath upon hearing this news and quickly proceeded to Shenwu Peak with Shen Ruyan.
By then, Shenwu Peak was left almost empty, with Zhao Tianfan being one of the few remaining. Xie Xiangyao and Qin Shenwu had already left for the battlefield.
Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan’s visit was primarily to see Zhao Tianfan before leaving the sect.
Zhao Tianfan, despite the significant impact of his injuries, maintained a relatively stable mental state.
His appearance had visibly aged, with much of his hair turning white, and his complexion had worsened significantly.
still, he managed to keep his spirits up during Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan’s visit, reminding them to prioritize their safety above all on the battlefield.
After assuring Zhao Tianfan they would heed his advice, Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan left Shenwu Peak for the mission hall.
After carefully selecting from the available tasks, Jiang Chengxuan’s attention was drawn to a particular group mission.
The mission Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan selected was not just a collaboration with one sect but a joint effort involving five major sects: Haoran Sect, Thunderclap Valley, Shadow Gate, Qjankun Hall, and Pantheon Sect.
Their objective was to attack Immortal Sea City, a fortress and stronghold for the demonic sects.
An accident during this mission could severely impact the morale of the demonic side and potentially alter the course of the war.
“We’ll take this mission,” Jiang Chengxuan informed the cultivator in charge of assigning missions.
The cultivator, upon hearing Jiang Chengxuan’s decision and recognizing the high level of danger associated with this mission, couldn’t help but express his hesitation,
Elder Jiang, this mission is extremely hazardous. Are you and Elder Shen sure about this choice?”
Yes, we’ve decided on this mission. Please provide us with the details and specifics,” Jiang Chengxuan insisted, and the cultivator, unable to object, quickly handed over the relevant information to Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan.
Without lingering, Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan reviewed the mission details briefly before departing from the Haoran Sect and heading towards a city named Blue Lane City, the designated gathering point for this mission.
“Husband, by choosing this mission, are you intending to…?”
Shen Ruyan couldn’t help but glance at Jiang Chengxuan as they traveled.
A sharp glint appeared in Jiang Chengxuan’s eyes as he nodded,
“Indeed, one of the reasons I chose this mission is to see if the Holy Son of
Qiankun Hall will also be heading there.
Regardless, my senior brother’s injuries demand an explanation.
If our Shifu and the others are constrained, then it falls to me, as his junior brother, to take action.
I only hope I won’t be disappointed.”
During their conversation, Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan swiftly traversed vast distances.
Suddenly, they both felt a disturbance and immediately turned their gaze toward a region far ahead.
There, numerous cultivators were engaged in battle, representing both the righteous and demonic paths.
Among them, they even recognized an acquaintance from the Qian family, Qjan Mengchen.
However, Qian Mengchen and her allies were not faring well.
They were no match for the demonic cultivators, particularly due to several Celestial Radiance cultivators among their opponents.
Under such oppression, Qjan Mengchen and her group struggled not just to counterattack but even to defend themselves.
Just as Qian Mengchen and her companions found themselves in increasing danger, the noise and clamor around suddenly ceased.
Everyone present was taken aback, and upon realization, their expressions drastically changed.
‘It’s… a Seethrough powerhouse!”
In that instant, both Qjan Mengchen’s group and the demonic cultivators became tense.
They all knew very well that if the newly arrived Seethrough powerhouse was not an ally, none of them would escape.
Crash!
Suddenly, the demonic cultivators who were attacking Qian Mengchen and her allies just moments ago started dissipating into the air like weathered rocks, one after another.
Seeing this, Qian Mengchen and the others heaved a long sigh of relief. At the same time, they could not help but feel pleasantly surprised.
They immediately looked around and saw a man and a woman not far from them.
“Fellow Daoist Jiang, Fairy Shen?”
Qian Mengchen’s face first showed astonishment, then a pleasantly surprised expression.
“Was it you? Have you both advanced to the Seethrough stage?”
“Yeah.”
Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan responded with a smile.
After a while.
Shen Ruyan then said, “Fellow Daoist Mengchen, there are no more demonic cultivators here.
You shouldn’t face any danger for a short while.
My husband and I have urgent matters to attend to, so we won’t stay any longer.
Take care.”
With those words, Shen Ruyan and Jiang Chengxuan didn’t linger. Their figures quickly vanished from sight.
