Chapter 1254: Completing the Trade, Entering the Second Layer of the Fair, Part 1
Editor: Henyee Translations
The sudden confrontation left everyone present a bit startled, and they quickly adopted an attitude of watching the drama unfold.
It seemed both individuals were determined to compete for the true immortal ancient dragon’s reverse scale and neither intended to easily let the opportunity slip by.
However, since neither of them could gather the three required materials on their own, a dispute was inevitable.
“You jest, sir. I hold two of the three required materials, while you possess only one. If anyone should be granted this opportunity, it ought to be me,” the white-browed cultivator retorted coldly in response to the other’s probing.
From the crowd emerged a cultivator clad in a black fur cloak. His figure was gaunt, and his face was sharp and thin. At a glance, it was clear he wasn’t a benevolent character.
“It’s the Profound Underworld Celestial Sect’s Profound Underworld Immortal! He’s here as well!” someone exclaimed in recognition, their voice tinged with surprise.
...
The Profound Underworld Celestial Sect was a prominent faction within the Profound Bright Celestial Domain, rumored to house three true immortal powerhouses, making it a formidable force.
Though not a demonic sect, its cultivation methods leaned heavily towards the path of darkness, resulting in a reputation for producing erratic and ruthless disciples notorious across the celestial domain.
“Cackling, the Profound Underworld Immortal’s sinister laughter filled the air as he addressed the white-browed cultivator without directly answering. “Why be so particular about who came first or who has more? The treasures of this world belong to those who are worthy. If you relinquish this opportunity today, the Profound Underworld Celestial Sect will remember your favor.”
The intent behind his words was clear to all present: the Profound Underworld Immortal was leveraging his sect’s influence to intimidate the white-browed cultivator.
Despite being eligible to attend the Ten Thousand Treasures Immortal Fair, the Long Cloud Celestial Sect, to which the white-browed cultivator belonged, was inferior in strength to the Profound Underworld Celestial Sect. Moreover, the Profound Underworld Celestial Sect’s disciples were known for their lawlessness.
“You…” The white-browed cultivator, though incensed, found himself unable to retort. Seeing this, the Profound Underworld Immortal pressed his advantage, stepping closer and saying, “I genuinely wish to trade. I hope you won’t reject my goodwill.”
His eyes bore into the white-browed cultivator’s, exuding an oppressive aura. Many present frowned at the blatant display of intimidation, including Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan.
However, they knew better than to interfere. The fair’s rules ensured the safety of participants, but direct involvement in such disputes was unwise.
“Hmph! Such gall from the Profound Underworld Celestial Sect!” a righteous voice suddenly boomed, catching everyone off guard.
They turned to see a red-robed cultivator step forward, holding a piece of jade radiating a serene glow that seemed to quiet the very world around them—the Nether Dao Profound Stone.
“It’s the Scarlet Ridge Immortal from the Maple Sky Celestial Sect!” someone in the crowd exclaimed, recognizing the newcomer. “Those two sects are always at odds. This will definitely frustrate the Profound Underworld Immortal.”
The Maple Sky Celestial Sect and the Profound Underworld Celestial Sect were known rivals, stemming from a history of internal strife that split a single faction into two. Their enmity ran deep, and their powers were closely matched.

“Scarlet Ridge! Are you here to ruin my plans?” the Profound Underworld Immortal shouted, pointing at the red-robed cultivator, his aura flaring menacingly.
The Scarlet Ridge Immortal remained unfazed, his expression stern as he met the challenge head-on. The tense standoff left the white-browed cultivator caught in the middle, unsure of how to proceed.
“Do not engage! Remember the rules of the Ten Thousand Treasures Immortal Fair!” a commanding voice echoed from above, imbued with overwhelming power that silenced the entire gathering. Everyone present felt a shiver run through them as they recognized the authority of a true powerhouse.
Both true immortals immediately reined in their auras, their expressions growing more controlled. Even Jiang Chengxuan exchanged a look with Shen Ruyan, both feeling a sense of awe.
The voice belonged to none other than a grand celestial being, showcasing the immense power behind the Ten Thousand Treasures Immortal Fair. This marked Jiang Chengxuan’s first direct encounter with such a formidable entity in the celestial domain.
