Following a Hundred Years of Cultivation, I'm dying Before I Got Cheats

Translator: Henyee Translations ¹ Editor: Henyee Translations

The most crucial aspect of cultivating in this special space was that Jiang Chengxuan didn’t have to worry about the passage of time.

No matter how long he cultivated in this space, only one day would pass in the outside world.

Time passed quickly.

Jiang Chengxuan spent over twenty years in this special cultivation space. On this day, the spiritual qi around Jiang Chengxuan began to churn violently. Within thousands of miles, all the spiritual qi seemed to be drawn by a massive ‘black hole’, converging towards his location.

In the blink of an eye, the spiritual qi in this space was completely drained.

At the same time.

An overwhelming aura, as intense as the scorching sun, burst forth from Jiang Chengxuan’s body.

In the void, ripples of space started to undulate.

This was his touch on the spatial laws.

Only those who reached this level could have some understanding of spatial laws.

However, at this very moment, Jiang Chengxuan, who was in the midst of his breakthrough, suddenly sensed a warning from the unknown.

It seemed to tell him that he was about to advance to Soul Formation and must undergo a human tribulation to succeed.

In other words, he had to leave this special cultivation space immediately. Otherwise, his advancement to Soul Formation would be indefinitely delayed.

After realizing this, Jiang Chengxuan immediately took out the Tribulation Avoidance Pearl without any hesitation and chose to use it.

Buzz!

In an instant, a strange fluctuation spread out.

In the next moment, the warning that was originally ringing alarm in his heart immediately disappeared without a trace.

At this moment, the Human Tribulation that he had to overtake had passed.

Next, he only needed to stay in this special cultivation space in peace and wait for his breakthrough.

Just like that.

In the blink of an eye, another three years passed.

On this day.

Five-colored lights – blue, red, yellow, white, and green – emerged around

Jiang Chengxuan’s body.

A mysterious and incomparably powerful aura erupted from Jiang Chengxuan’s body.

Faintly, a Dharma Form wrapped in five-colored radiance began to take shape.

This was Jiang Chengxuan’s Soul Formation Dharma Form, the Great Five

Elements Dharma Form.

Although it was just in its nascent form, once his cultivation level advanced to Void Returning in the future, this Dharma Form would solidify, transitioning from illusion to reality, and become his intrinsic Dharma Form.

Buzz!

Suddenly, behind Jiang Chengxuan’s illusory Five Elements Dharma Form, another ring of five-colored halo lit up, gently sweeping forward.

In an instant, it separated into five rapidly spinning grinding discs.

Then, over there in the middle of the five spinning discs, a circular black hole appeared, emitting an aura of terrifying power.

Jiang Chengxuan abruptly opened his eyes, a flash of joy sparkling in them.

The Five-Colored Divine Light was finally upgraded!

With his successful breakthrough to Soul Formation, his previously

Five-Colored Divine Light had also evolved.

Not only did it have the ability to reverse and confuse the five elements. Moreover, it had a special ability, which was that it could steal anything of the five elements.

Which meant…

In the future, as long as he encountered divine powers, spells, or even Dharma treasures within the scope of the five elements, they would be countered by his Five-colored Divine Light.

In particular, Dharma treasures could be snatched away and become his spoils of war.

Although this divine power could currently be used only once a day with his current strength, as his cultivation improved and his understanding of this divine power deepened, both its frequency of use and might would increase accordingly.

This was his greatest gain from breaking through to Soul Formation.

[Ding.]

At the same time, the system’s notification sounded in his mind.

[Congratulations, host. You have reached Soul Formation. You have obtained one chance to comprehend the spatial laws. A wisp of Pure Yang Qi.] The former could help him further comprehend spatial laws on the basis of his current foundation.

As for the latter, it could help a certain level 5 True Treasure on him directly advance to Level 6 Pure Yang True Treasure.

Originally, Jiang Chengxuan had planned to come out of seclusion and leave this special cultivation space after advancing to Soul Formation and comprehending the Five-colored Divine Light.

However, from the looks of it, this time was clearly going to be delayed. If he could further comprehend the spatial laws in the following period of time and raise one of his intrinsic True Treasures to Level 6, it would definitely bring about a qualitative leap in his strength.

Soon, Jiang Chengxuan decided to use the two items rewarded by the system. With the help of the system, Jiang Chengxuan’s comprehension of the spatial laws of this world instantly improved.

It was not an exaggeration to say that it was almost impossible for anyone below the mid-stage Soul Formation to touch him, let alone injure him.

Unless the other party’s comprehension of spatial laws was the same as his.

But that was almost impossible.

At least in the cultivation world of the Nine Essences, there was no such person.

Secondly, it was his intrinsic True Treasure, the Golden Void Sword. Jiang Chengxuan had already used that wisp of Pure Yang Qi to advance it to a Level 6 Pure Yang True Treasure.

After a cultivator broke through to Soul Formation, even if they did not use any materials, they could nurture their level 5 True Treasure to Level 6.

However, the time required was at least hundreds of years.

It would be fine if he did not have the Pure Yang Qi.

However, since he already had it, Jiang Chengxuan naturally wouldn’t let it go to waste.

After fully consolidating his realm, Jiang Chengxuan no longer stayed in the special cultivation space.

With a thought, he returned to the outside world, where only one day had passed since he entered the special cultivation space.

Jiang Chengxuan had just opened the door of his cave abode when he saw Shen Ruyan, who was guarding him.

Even though she had heard about the special cultivation space, Shen Ruyan was still in disbelief when she saw Jiang Chengxuan coming out and sensed the Soul Formation aura on him.

“Husband, is your cultivation already…?”

“Yes.”

Jiang Chengxuan smiled and nodded at Shen Ruyan.

“That’s right. I’ve already succeeded in breaking through.”

As they spoke, the couple began to talk about this matter. Because Jiang Chengxuan did not tell anyone about this breakthrough.

So.

When his conversation with Shen Ruyan was almost over, their disciple, Jiang Anran, suddenly came to their side.

And told them.

Heavenly Lord Purple Flame of the Purple Sun Palace, Heavenly Lord Xuan Yang of the Hidden Sword Palace, Heavenly Lord Everlasting Mountain of the Everlasting Palace, and Heavenly Lord Infinite Ocean of the Black Sea Pavilion had all arrived.

Moreover, they had brought along an envoy from the Sect of Infinite Boundaries.

Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan weren’t surprised by the news.

Now that the Southern Wilderness’s Supreme Celestial Sect was destroyed. This matter had clearly touched the nerves of the Sect of Infinite Boundaries and the few sects in the Northern Border.

At this moment, it was naturally very normal for them to come together to discuss countermeasures.

Soon.

Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan arrived at the guest hall of the Jiang family. Upon meeting Heavenly Lord Xuan Yang and the others, they exchanged pleasantries before their attention was drawn to the people behind them. To their surprise, the couple recognized a few familiar faces.

The envoys from the Sect of Infinite Boundaries of the Western Desert were Shui Lanxian, Perfected Lord Glowleaf, and the others.

Jiang Chengxuan smiled and said, “Fairy Shui, Fellow Daoist Glowleaf, I didn’t expect us to meet again.”

It was clear that Shui Lanxian and Perfected Lord Glowleaf were already aware of Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan’s previous feat in defeating multiple Heavenly Lords.

So.

Even though they didn’t know about Jiang Chengxuan’s recent ascension to Soul Formation, they addressed him and Shen Ruyan both as seniors. “Your visit must be related to the destruction of the Supreme Celestial Sect in the Southern Wilderness, isn’t it?”

Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan then turned their attention back to Heavenly Lord Xuan Yang and the other three.

“That’s right.”

Heavenly Lord Xuan Yang and the other three nodded.

Heavenly Lord Purple Flame said, “To be honest, the sects of the Eastern End and Central Plain have already targeted the Sect of Infinite Boundaries after destroying the Supreme Celestial Sect of the Southern Wilderness.

In order to protect themselves, the Sect of Infinite Boundaries hopes to join forces with our Northern Border to fight against the various sects in the Eastern End and Central Plain.”

After Heavenly Lord Purple Flame said that, Shui Lanxian took out a letter and handed it to Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan.

“Seniors, this is a personal letter from my Shifu, Dongfang Tianxing. I hope you can take a look.

In a few days, my Shifu, Dongfang Tianxing, will personally come to your esteemed land to discuss the alliance.

Hmm? Dongfang Tianxing was coming personally? Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan looked at each other.

If that was the case, it could be seen that the Sect of Infinite Boundaries was truly sincere.

If they said that they wanted to form an alliance, it would be insincere if Dongfang Tianxing and Murong Xian, who were the ancestors, didn’t come and only let their disciples discuss with them.

After all, they were all Soul Formation big shots.

Although Shui Xianlan was Dongfang Tianxing’s personal disciple, a mere Nascent Soul cultivator wasn’t enough when it came to discussing the alliance of the two regions.

At that moment.

Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan opened the letter and read the contents.

After a while.

They returned the letter to Shui Xianlan and looked at Heavenly Lord Purple Flame and Heavenly Lord Xuan Yang.

“Since you are willing to bring Fairy Shui and the others to Mount Mystic Tai, I believe you have already made up your mind to join forces with the Sect of Infinite Boundaries, right?”
