Chapter 1040: The Last Will and Oath

Editor: Henyee Translations

“The Ascension Stone! To think that such a divine object exists in this world, and it was man-made.”

“The power of the Immortal Realm is truly extraordinary.”

Among the group, Qin Shenwu was undoubtedly the most shocked by the Ascension Stone. Having reached the realm of Mahayana, Qin Shenwu had long been searching for a ans to ascend safely, but he had never heard of an artifact that could guarantee safe ascension.

The power of a Mahayana should, in theory, allow one to directly trigger the ascension light and traverse the Immortal Realm.

However, in the history of the Floodgate Realm, very few had dared to do so. The reason was simple: the success rate of direct ascensions over the past ten thousand years had been abysmally low, with many even at the peak of Mahayana disappearing without a trace.

Only now did everyone understand the reason behind these failures: the frequent cosmic calamities had caused the paths to the Immortal Realm to beco chaotic.

“Moreover, it seems that there are quite a few of these divine objects in the Immortal Realm,” Jiang Chengxuan added, his face breaking into a smile as he felt the fluctuations from the storage ring. His palm suddenly burst into intense light, revealing several Ascension Stones, dazzling to behold.

The lavish display was indeed shocking, even to soone of Qin Shenwu’s standing, who couldn’t help but gape at the sight. The value of these few Ascension Stones was no less than the combined treasures of the entire Haoran Sect.

To the group, this was akin to a windfall from the Immortal Realm.

Everyone felt a surge of joy at this harvest. This trip to the immortal cave abode had undoubtedly brought the greatest fortune into the hands of the Haoran Sect.

It was unknown what the Pantheon Sect and other sects that had invited them here would think if they knew of this discovery.

However, these opportunities were not without great dangers and were not rely found by chance. If it were soone else, it would have been difficult to reach the end and arrive at this place.

The rules of the world of cultivation are such that only those who align the right circumstances, location, and human connections can truly dominate.

Opportunities are reserved for those with the strength to seize them.

…

Eventually, after a brief further exploration, the group ticulously tidied up the cave. The storage ring was indeed the only relic left by Immortal Eastern River.

Having secured all opportunities, the group then began to think about how to leave. In this ancient cave, there was nothing that could be considered an exit.

“Husband, perhaps check the storage ring to see if there is a way to leave,” Shen Ruyan suggested.

Jiang Chengxuan then searched the storage ring carefully and indeed found an Array Disc, which seed related to teleportation or translocation.

He took out the Array Disc from the ring and placed it in his palm, about to channel his power into it to activate the array when suddenly, an enigmatic fluctuation unfolded.

“O beings of destiny, since you have activated this disc, it indicates that you have witnessed the secrets here…”

A strange voice suddenly emanated from the void, imnsely vast and ancient, causing everyone’s hearts to tremble.

“Is this… the voice of Immortal Eastern River?” Jiang Chengxuan and the others realized.

It appeared that Immortal Eastern River’s opportunities were not ant to be handed over directly; perhaps there was still a last will left behind.

As Jiang Chengxuan and the others listened intently, the profound voice continued:

“I traversed the thirty-six celestial domains. I was a peerless force among my contemporaries, reaching the summit.”

“Yet, due to the sches and betrayal by peers, I fell into traps and was forced to perish here.”

“In my final battle, the traitors were slain by in desperate combat, yet the mastermind behind my downfall remains alive. When I think of this place, my heart is filled with unwillingness and cannot rest.”

The voice of Immortal Eastern River, filled with imnse regret and anger, continued, “O being of destiny, having passed my trials and inherited my rules of life and death, it ans you possess the potential to shine brightly in the Immortal Realm.”

“However, to inherit all that I have left, you must swear an oath of your Dao heart. Should there co a day, you must seek vengeance for .”

“My enemy is the Earth Immortal of Profound Heaven Immortal Sect from the Jade Light Domain, Immortal Red Fla. Rember this!”

“If you are unwilling, then place the storage ring back completely and leave through the stone door behind this platform.”

As the last words faded, the voice of Immortal Eastern River disappeared, and the cave fell into complete silence.

This request left Jiang Chengxuan deep in thought. On reflection, the terms seed reasonable, and it was hard to argue against them. Immortal Eastern River’s cave had bestowed upon them nurous fortunes, and it would be excessively greedy to expect to receive the final treasures without any conditions.

“Red Fire Immortal…” Jiang Chengxuan muttered the na, suddenly recalling the formidable presence that had intimidated him and Shen Ruyan in the final test of the inheritance—a presence filled with destructive power and the aura of an immortal.

That terrifying mont was still vivid in his mory. The force they encountered was undoubtedly that of an Earth Immortal, explaining the overwhelming pressure they felt.

Moreover, there was a crucial detail in Immortal Eastern River words—over the long years since his death, Immortal Red Fla’s realm might have advanced beyond that of an Earth Immortal. If he had reached Heavenly Immortal and established his own celestial domain, the difficulty of fulfilling this oath would multiply exponentially.

Jiang Chengxuan was overwheld with thoughts, even as Qin Shenwu, desperate for the opportunity to ascend, had to pause and consider the gravity of the situation. Taking on an enemy who might be a Heavenly Immortal while only at the level of managing the Dao was a daunting, if not reckless, challenge.

The potential consequences were imnse, and even Jiang Chengxuan, accustod to weighing his options, had to deliberate deeply.

Jiang Chengxuan now faced the prospect of vowing enmity against a being who spanned several major realms beyond his current level—a truly formidable terror.

Should Immortal Red Fla perceive any link to this vendetta before Jiang Chengxuan could ascend, eliminating them would be as easy as flicking a finger.

Yet, this was only the worst-case scenario Jiang Chengxuan habitually prepared for. It was also conceivable that Immortal Red Fla was rely a lesser figure below Earth Immortal, who had used cunning ans to fatally undermine Immortal Eastern River.

Such optimistic conjecture could be considered wishful thinking. Regardless, the adversary in question was at least of Earth Immortal stature.
