Chapter 1303: The Appearance of the Immortal Tribulation Lightning, The Beginning of the Chaos (Part 2)
Editor: Henyee Translations
As he thought of this, Jiang Chengxuan’s gaze sharpened like lightning, scanning the chaotic void with a powerful aura that intimidated the crowd, causing many to turn their heads in caution. His domineering presence was unstoppable, cutting through the chaotic battlefield, as he swiftly searched for Shen Ruyan’s presence.
His overwhelming aura swept across thousands of miles in an instant, and he quickly located Shen Ruyan’s familiar aura somewhere within the Southern River Stone Forest. With a sigh of relief, the furrow in Jiang Chengxuan’s brow finally eased, and he exhaled a breath of pent-up worry.
This secret realm exploration was something Jiang Chengxuan couldn’t intervene in. Although he had confidence in Shen Ruyan’s abilities, it was impossible for him not to worry. Fortunately, the thorough preparations had ensured her safety.
However, just as he began to relax, a sudden change in the distance caused Jiang Chengxuan’s brow to furrow once again, his eyes revealing a fierce killing intent. Without hesitation, he unleashed his full power, and his immortal energy surged, pushing through the surrounding space with overwhelming force.
Within a radius of hundreds of miles, everything was suppressed under his might, causing countless cultivators to tremble in fear.
“An Earth Immortal!”
The mere presence of this power was enough to halt all fighting, as the name associated with such a force was enough to make everyone pause, their hearts filled with trepidation as they looked towards Jiang Chengxuan’s location, fearful of provoking trouble.
“Boom!”
At that moment, another force, nearly on par with an Earth Immortal, suddenly erupted, akin to the descent of destruction, stirring the laws of the Immortal Domain and causing a stir in the clouds. The battlefield seemed to freeze, and countless cultivators gasped in shock, their faces filled with disbelief.
Two Earth Immortals!
The realization that two Earth Immortal Sovereigns were present in the area caused a surge of panic, with many abandoning their pursuits and fleeing the battlefield. However, what happened next left them even more astonished.
Within the Southern River Stone Forest, which had fallen silent due to the eruption of Earth Immortal power, two terrifying forces clashed in the void, colliding with a thunderous roar!
“Boom! Boom!”
The collision of Earth Immortal-level power resulted in a massive shockwave that swept across the entire battlefield of the Southern River Stone Forest. Within the radius of a thousand miles, every cultivator hastily activated their protective barriers, trying to shield themselves from the oncoming force. The impact sent them all flying back, once-dominant figures now appearing as helpless as leaves in a storm.
This was the dominance of Earth Immortals within the Immortal Domain. As the pinnacle of power, the shockwaves from their battle alone were an insurmountable obstacle for other cultivators.
Amidst the chaotic scene, countless rays of immortal and treasure light scattered, and Jiang Chengxuan had already traversed the distance of thousands of miles in an instant, arriving at the location where Shen Ruyan and her group were.
In his sharp gaze, another immortal figure stood, his expression grave as he stared at Jiang Chengxuan.
When Jiang Chengxuan had located Shen Ruyan and her group, he had simultaneously noticed this individual, who had been attacking them. In a moment of urgency, Jiang Chengxuan had intervened without hesitation, breaking through all obstacles with a domineering stance to intercept the attack.
“Who are you? Why do you obstruct me?” After their clash, both retreated several steps, and the Earth Immortal who had attacked Shen Ruyan’s group spoke up, his eyes filled with suspicion as he questioned Jiang Chengxuan.
However, Jiang Chengxuan’s expression remained cold, and he replied indifferently, “These people are mine. You were a bit presumptuous.”
This statement made it clear to the attacker that Jiang Chengxuan was not simply meddling but had a personal stake in the matter, which only served to intensify the conflict between them.
“Dear husband!” At that moment, Shen Ruyan, her face full of joy, flew over, her flowing celestial dress and sleeves billowing like mist as she gently landed beside Jiang Chengxuan.
Jiang Chengxuan immediately deployed his Earth Immortal domain, enveloping the area around them and completing his defensive stance while making his position on the matter clear. Only then did he turn his gaze towards his beloved Shen Ruyan, her breathtakingly beautiful face softening his voice as he spoke gently, “My dear, I’m glad you’re safe.”
The care and concern in his words filled Shen Ruyan’s heart with warmth, her gaze softening like spring water as she nestled into Jiang Chengxuan’s embrace. No matter what dangers and perils she had faced in the secret realm, hearing Jiang Chengxuan’s words made it all worthwhile.
“I’ve obtained the Immortal Tribulation Lightning, my love,” she said excitedly after withdrawing from his embrace.
“Hmm.” Jiang Chengxuan nodded, his eyes showing a hint of joy as well. In fact, he had already sensed the presence of the Immortal Tribulation Lightning when he first detected Shen Ruyan’s aura. The power it held was indeed formidable, carrying an inexplicable connection to primordial forces.

“Respected one, we did not disappoint you!” At that moment, the cultivators who had accompanied Shen Ruyan into the secret realm stepped forward, bowing respectfully to Jiang Chengxuan, their faces filled with excitement.
Jiang Chengxuan glanced at them and saw their disheveled appearances. They had fought their way out of the tribulation energy, each of them bearing injuries. Their auras were weak, their immortal light dim, and some were even covered in dried blood.
Furthermore, the group was missing two True Immortals—one recruited for the mission and one a long-standing elder of the Golden Illusion Immortal Sect. Clearly, the dangers within the secret realm had far exceeded their expectations.
However, none of them voiced any complaints. After all, the perils of the Immortal Path were well known, and they had entered the secret realm not for anyone else but for themselves, making it a simple matter of risk and reward. It was akin to a gamble, where they had accepted the possible outcomes.
Yet, Jiang Chengxuan was not entirely indifferent. With a nod, he retrieved several immortal fruits from his storage, each a life-giving treasure, and handed them to the injured cultivators.
Seeing this, the wounded cultivators accepted the fruits with grateful expressions, bowing deeply to Jiang Chengxuan once again. Despite the hardships of assisting Shen Ruyan in obtaining the tribulation lightning, they had also acquired numerous treasures along the way. Coupled with Jiang Chengxuan’s generous gift, they felt they had gained immense fortune, narrowly escaping death with great reward.
Even the mysterious Earth Immortal who had attacked was taken aback, surprised by Jiang Chengxuan’s generosity and tactics. Although Earth Immortals were extraordinarily powerful, they also required a terrifying amount of resources for their cultivation. The fact that Jiang Chengxuan could casually bestow such treasures indicated a substantial foundation.
This was not an opponent to be taken lightly, and it was best to avoid unnecessary conflict.
After Jiang Chengxuan and his group exchanged a few more words, the mysterious Earth Immortal finally spoke again, his tone much more composed.
“There is an Immortal Tribulation Lightning within the secret realm, and it is essential for me to break through in my path. It seems the cultivators I sent in have failed, as I can sense the tribulation lightning’s aura on your group. I do not wish to provoke unnecessary conflict. I am willing to trade primordial treasures for the tribulation lightning. What say you?”
After some contemplation, weighed down by Jiang Chengxuan’s presence, he offered a trade instead of continuing the conflict.
His proposition left everyone in the vicinity stunned, their expressions filled with surprise. The dignity of an Earth Immortal Sovereign was not to be challenged, yet even after having already taken action, they were now negotiating—something must have transpired that they could not understand.
“Primordial treasures are indeed valuable, and your offer is sincere,” Jiang Chengxuan said, his tone softening slightly. But before the other Earth Immortal could express his relief, Jiang Chengxuan continued, “However, the Immortal Tribulation Lightning is an indispensable treasure for my partner’s path. Therefore, I must decline your offer.”
His simple words left the atmosphere tense once more, the silence filled with mounting pressure.
