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

Chapter 1459: Saving an Old Acquaintance, Reflecting on the Past (Part 2) Chapter 1459: Saving an Old Acquaintance, Reflecting on the Past (Part 2) Editor: Henyee Translations Black light shot forth like countless blades, slicing through space with terrifying precision.

In the blink of an eye, the attacks were upon Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan, who appeared to be frozen in place, unfazed and unmoving.

“Die!” The five black-robed cultivators sneered with twisted glee, their eyes brimming with malice.

To them, calamity energy was a weapon as deadly as a plague to ordinary immortals.

How many had fallen to their attacks in the past?

In their minds, the scene of Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan being obliterated was already playing out.

“Look out!” Immortal Chiling shouted in alarm, his eyes bloodshot with desperation.

Just as he prepared to assist, Shen Ruyan gently raised her hand, a soft but unyielding energy restraining him in place.

With a calm expression, she extended a single slender finger, pointing toward two of the black-robed figures.

“Boom!

Boom!” In an instant, two radiant bolts of lightning crashed down from the heavens with pinpoint accuracy, striking the targets head-on.

Simultaneously, Jiang Chengxuan’s sharp gaze flickered with a cold light.

From his pupils, an endless stream of dazzling immortal radiance burst forth, piercing through the black mist and directly invading the minds of the remaining three attackers.

“Ahhh!” Their pained cries echoed through the air as the black-robed cultivators froze in place, terror and regret etched deeply onto their faces.

In the next moment, the oppressive black mist that surrounded them violently dispersed, and the five figures plummeted to the ground like lifeless crows, crashing with resounding thuds.

Dust surged into the air, the remnants of lightning crackling amidst the chaos.

Two of the assailants disintegrated into ashes, while the other three were annihilated, body and soul.

The five True Immortal-level cultivators of the Immortal Calamity Sect, who had relentlessly hunted Immortal Chiling, were vanquished with ease.

It was as if Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan had merely swatted away a few pesky insects.

Immortal Chiling stood frozen, disbelief clouding his mind.

Words of caution died in his throat as he stared at the carnage, his heart gripped by a chilling realization: the very people who had driven him to the brink of despair were effortlessly crushed by Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan.

The overwhelming gap in power left him dumbfounded.

He had speculated that they might have grown stronger over the millennia, but this level of dominance far exceeded his imagination.

“Could it beaEUR| that both of them have already reached the level of Earth Immortals?” he thought, his heart filled with awe and amazement.

“Immortal Chiling, are you alright?” Jiang Chengxuan’s calm voice pulled him back to reality.

Immortal Chiling looked up, his gaze meeting the serene but powerful presence of his old friend.

“IaEUR| I’m fine!

Many thanks to both of you!” Immortal Chiling quickly stood, bowing deeply in gratitude.

Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan exchanged a lighthearted chuckle.

“It’s fate that we meet again.

There’s no need for such formalities,” Jiang Chengxuan said with a warm smile.

“It’s been nearly ten thousand years since we parted ways.

To think that in such turbulent times, we’d cross paths once more in the Immortal Bug ValleyaEUR”what a coincidence.” Immortal Chiling felt a surge of warmth, his previous unease fading away.

He smiled in return, saying: “Indeed, it’s been so long, and once again, I owe you my life.

It’s truly humblingaEUR|” Jiang Chengxuan shook his head and gently asked what had transpired to bring Immortal Chiling and his companion to this perilous valley.

Immortal Chiling recounted his tale.

After parting ways with Jiang Chengxuan all those years ago, he had returned to the Feng Tian Immortal Sect, where he focused on cultivation, eventually reaching new heights.

However, during his retreat, the Great Calamity struck.

Although the sect survived the initial waves under the protection of their ancestral patriarch, the prolonged conflict took a heavy toll.

The patriarch, exhausted and gravely injured, could no longer shield the sect.

Just as they thought they might recover in the post-calamity chaos, the Immortal Calamity Sect emerged.

Ruthless and ambitious, this newly risen power spread like a plague across the Northern Continent, devouring everything in its path.

The Feng Tian Immortal Sect, weakened from the calamity, became their next target.

Despite a valiant resistance, the sect was ultimately overwhelmed.

Its members were massacred, and its treasures plundered.

Immortal Chiling and his junior sister, the last remnants of their lineage, fled with the sect’s sacred inheritance.

The Immortal Calamity Sect, however, relentlessly pursued them.

Cornered and desperate, they ventured into the Immortal Bug Valley, hoping its infamous dangers might deter their enemies.

By the end of his story, Immortal Chiling’s face was streaked with tears.

“Such is the way of the immortal pathaEUR”heartless and cruel.

Even a once-glorious sect can crumble into ruin,” he lamented bitterly.

Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan offered words of comfort, their expressions tinged with sympathy.

At that moment, a faint voice broke the somber atmosphere.

“Brother Ling, where are we?” The young woman in Immortal Chiling’s arms stirred awake, her voice soft but filled with confusion.

“Junior Sister!

LookaEUR”we’ve been saved!” Immortal Chiling’s voice trembled with relief and joy.

He helped her sit up, and when she saw Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan, her eyes lit up with recognition.

“Miss Shen!

Brother Jiang!” Her face flushed with delight as she called out their names, her joy palpable.

Shen Ruyan smiled warmly and approached her, the two exchanging pleasantries.

The four spent several days resting and catching up in the Immortal Bug Valley, reminiscing about old times and sharing their experiences since they last parted.

At the valley’s exit, Immortal Chiling and his junior sister stood side by side, facing Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan.

“Brother Jiang, Lady Shen, we must take our leave now.

Your kindness will never be forgotten.

Should I survive this tribulation, I will gladly offer my services to repay this debt.” Though Jiang Chengxuan offered them the chance to retreat to the safety of the Western Continent, where they could rebuild and recover, Immortal Chiling declined.

Bound by duty and vengeance, he and his junior sister chose the path of retribution.

Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan understood their resolve.

The Immortal Calamity Sect’s involvement in the Northern Continent was complex and perilous, entangled with powerful entities and Earth Immortals.

Direct intervention could lead to disastrous consequences.

Having saved them from certain death, Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan had already done more than enough.
