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

Chapter 984: Safe Withdrawal, Remarkable Gains

Editor: Henyee Translations

Jiang Chengxuan decided to trust his instincts and follow the Heavenly Calculation Technique to immediately begin his departure from the area.

Taking a moment to regulate his breathing on the spot, he gradually restored his state to its peak. With each breath, his Dao manifested naturally.

He then transformed once more into a five-colored streak of light, dashing in the direction indicated by the Heavenly Calculation Technique.

As expected, at the far end of the profound void, another terrifying sea of fire ignited, with countless meteors wielding the might of Dao Integration descending once again.

What followed was inevitably an intense battle. Jiang Chengxuan unleashed all his power of Dao Mastery, sweeping his hand as True Sun Fire transformed into a vast tidal wave, engulfing the meteor swarm.

The collision of the two fiery seas instantly whipped up hundred-meter-high super waves, with the giant meteors shattering within them, like tiny splashes in the colossal waves.

Despite having gone through two major battles at the level of Dao mastery, the power Jiang Chengxuan unleashed at this moment was still as formidable as in his prime, commanding awe and respect.

This was the power of the Samsara Dao combined with the Five Elements Dao. He alone was like the entire world, with his Dharmic power and Dao rules cycling around him.

Soon, Jiang Chengxuan repelled wave after wave of meteor showers, making significant progress toward the exit.

Then came the meteors bearing the might of Dao Mastery, majestic in their approach.

Under the devastating explosion of the Five Elements Annihilation Light, the void trembled continuously, with stars shattering into dust.

After a series of cataclysmic disturbances…

From that last meteor wielding the power of Dao Mastery, a faint treasured light burst forth, obviously another nearly level 9 treasure.

Jiang Chengxuan reached out and collected this treasure into his palm. This time, he did not inspect it thoroughly, merely sensing the Dao power within it briefly before storing it away.

After breaking through the third wave of meteor showers, the Heavenly Calculation Technique within Jiang Chengxuan began to operate again.

In the divinations, the way out became increasingly clear, while the hidden hint of danger grew more distinct and chilling. Even with his experience, Jiang Chengxuan couldn’t help but feel a chill in his heart.

Something terrifying was definitely lurking behind this meteor formation, and it had already faintly sensed his presence.

Now, it was crucial to leave this area immediately.

Jiang Chengxuan then activated the power of Samsara, frantically replenishing his Dharmic power, quickly restoring his condition to its peak for another round of challenges.

For Jiang Chengxuan, who had become accustomed to the process, the meteors of Dao Integration and Dao Fusion were now easily extinguished, but the Dao Mastery meteors still required careful handling.

The roar of the great battle once again resounded through this part of the void.

…

Time swiftly moved to several days later.

A massive nebula filled the pitch-black void, where meteors and shattered rules intertwined, colliding and sparking intense explosions, creating a spectacular scene.

A figure tread upon the sea of fire, bursting forth from the nebula and disappearing almost instantly.

This was Jiang Chengxuan emerging from the meteor formation, now speckled with stardust and finally showing signs of fatigue.

Over these several days, he had forcefully broken through two meteor showers, unleashing all his combat power, and had finally left that place safely within the nick of time.

Almost immediately after his departure, the danger foretold by the Heavenly Calculation Technique reached its peak, a truly narrow escape.

But ultimately, it was a close call without harm, and Jiang Chengxuan found himself safely out just in time.

Not far ahead, a portal emitting purple glazed light flickered intermittently.

This was the exit from this place.

After carefully recalculating the omens of fortune and misfortune using the Heavenly Calculation Technique, Jiang Chengxuan finally settled down, taking a moment to breathe and regroup.

He also took out all his acquisitions from this journey—five spiritual items emitting unbelievable treasured light, quietly lying in his hand.

Including the two items he had acquired earlier, he had now collected a total of five nearly level 9 spiritual items and materials!

Primordial Fruit, Cosmic Crystal, Purple Qi Essence, True Sun Gold Pill, and Meteoric Lotus.

Each of these treasures was capable of igniting a major battle across realms.

Purple Qi Essence, born from the essence of a dead star, is usually produced from the death of a star. Yet the piece Jiang Chengxuan held was the size of three fingers, terrifyingly potent.

This item also had the effect of extending life to avoid tribulations, with its formidable nature going without saying.

Moreover, consuming Purple Qi Essence could also help one comprehend the cosmic Dao, significantly enhancing the chance of advancement to Dao mastery, much like the Black Lotus that Qin Shenwu had given him earlier.

The True Sun Gold Pill, meanwhile, could be integrated into a Heaven-reaching Spirit Treasure to break through to a Mysterious Heavenly Treasure, enhancing the potential for evolution. Even if the evolution failed, the Spirit Treasure would still gain the ability to unleash True Solar Fire, significantly increasing its offensive power.

As for the Meteoric Lotus, it too was derived from the demise of countless meteors from beyond the domain, each extinction possibly giving rise to a single Meteoric Lotus. It was an incredibly rare entity. Consuming this lotus could also extend one’s lifespan to evade tribulations, while granting its owner the power to manipulate meteors—a kind of exotic rule from beyond the domain.

For those seeking opportunities in extraterrestrial realms, this was undoubtedly a formidable ability.

Looking over these treasures, Jiang Chengxuan, despite his fatigue, felt immensely satisfied. Just the five nearly level 9 spiritual items and materials made this trip to the celestial cave immensely worthwhile.

After all, if not in the extraterrestrial realms, gathering such high-tier spiritual items and materials might take over a hundred thousand years, if not more. Opportunities like these do not come often.

After carefully inventorying his gains, Jiang Chengxuan prepared once again, ready to leave this place.

It was also time to go and find Shen Ruyan and the others.

Without further hesitation, Jiang Chengxuan stepped into the purple-lit portal.

Soon after, he experienced a sensation of the world turning, followed quickly by the feeling of his feet touching solid ground.

When he opened his eyes, he found himself on a vast platform.

This platform, the size of a temple’s foundation, was extremely ancient in design, resembling the great halls of ancient gates.

The only difference was that this massive platform was surrounded by numerous mysterious runes, emitting a grand, ancient, and profound vibration.
