Chapter 1347: System Task, Allied Immortal Sects – Part 2
The task of hosting a banquet and arranging everything for the Tianlong Chamber’s welcome was a massive undertaking. It took considerable time to organize everything properly before the preparations were finally deemed complete, and only then did the banquet arranged by Shen Ruyan and the others officially begin.
That day, the towering Qiyun Immortal Mountain was decorated in festive red, and the air was filled with excitement and the clamor of people. Any sect or cultivator from the Western Continent with the desire to participate could come freely to attend the grand banquet celebrating the Tianlong Chamber’s arrival.
This grand feast, which was a truly massive affair, lasted for a full half-month. Initially, the purpose was for Jiang Chengxuan and the members of the Scattered Immortals Alliance to become familiar with the members of the Tianlong Chamber and build relationships. Later, the event opened up to invite sects from all over the Immortal Realm, witnessing this strong alliance firsthand.
Countless forces across the Immortal Realm sent representatives to investigate, driven by curiosity, suspicion, or uncertainty. Yet when they arrived and saw the grand scale of the banquet, they understood that Jiang Chengxuan’s offer of alliance was genuine.
During the banquet, Jiang Chengxuan formally announced that the Qiyun Immortal Mountain would be lent indefinitely to the Tianlong Chamber, allowing them to recover fully until they decided to leave on their own terms. Additionally, during this time, the two forces would become genuine allies, sharing both fortune and adversity.
Fuguang Immortal naturally expressed his gratitude and sincere thanks to Jiang Chengxuan before all the gathered guests, officially accepting the alliance proposal.
Thus, this monumental event that shook the Immortal Realm was finally settled, and the news spread rapidly, causing further tremors among the various factions.
Time passed quickly as grand halls and palaces were constructed across the Qiyun Immortal Mountain. Numerous powerful formations and protection arrays were established to shield the area, and a vast number of teleportation formations were gradually put into place. It became clear that the Tianlong Chamber had firmly settled within the Qiyun Immortal Mountain, bringing all their precious resources and artifacts, signaling a long-term commitment rather than a temporary residence.
Not only did Jiang Chengxuan express no opposition to these developments, but he actively supported the Tianlong Chamber in establishing themselves. He helped construct various facilities, modifying many of the Immortal-Grade formations himself. The teleportation arrays were created using his mastery of space law, allowing the Chamber to reestablish trading and communication links at an incredible pace.
Even the Scattered Immortals Alliance played a significant role, sending disciples to assist in construction and even temporarily loaning medicinal herbs to help the Tianlong Chamber resolve urgent issues.
As a result, the situation quickly stabilized, and rebuilding efforts began in earnest. The damage caused by the destruction of the Tianlong Mountain was gradually repaired, with the Qiyun Immortal Mountain becoming the new foundation for growth. In no time, the Tianlong Chamber began to recover and grow at an astonishing speed.
During this period, the relationship between the Tianlong Chamber and the Scattered Immortals Alliance deepened. Their disciples frequently interacted, exchanging knowledge, and the elders of both sides grew increasingly familiar with one another.
Most notably, Jiang Chengxuan’s reputation within the Tianlong Chamber skyrocketed. His mastery of numerous disciplines, including alchemy, formation creation, and other Daoist arts, left the experienced elders of the Chamber in awe, proving his formidable prowess.
These developments further validated the success of the alliance, and it became clear that this union was mutually beneficial. The Tianlong Chamber had found a safe haven to regain their strength and rebuild, while the Scattered Immortals Alliance gained an influential ally that bolstered their own standing amid turbulent times. Jiang Chengxuan’s calculated risk had paid off, benefiting both parties.
[System Notification: Helped Tianlong Chamber establish an Immortal Formation. +10 alliance points.]
[System Notification: Helped Tianlong Chamber build teleportation arrays. +10 alliance points.]
[System Notification: Explored the Qiyun Immortal Mountain with the Tianlong Chamber. +10 alliance points.]
Jiang Chengxuan, however, paid little attention to these notifications. He was simply focused on fulfilling the system’s task and ensuring the successful establishment of the Tianlong Chamber within the Qiyun Immortal Mountain. Each task he completed triggered a system notification, bringing him closer to his goal.
After several years, as the relationship between the Tianlong Chamber and the Scattered Immortals Alliance grew even stronger, the final system notification finally sounded in his mind.
[Ding!]
[Congratulations, host, for completing the task: Unite the Immortal Sects.]
[Reward: Heaven-Cleaving Tribulation Weapon—An immortal treasure capable of harnessing and controlling tribulation energy, with devastating offensive power.]
Jiang Chengxuan was overjoyed and astonished by the system’s reward. He had never expected such a high-level treasure as a reward for this unique task. Initially, he had anticipated receiving something related to primordial energy, but the term Tribulation Weapon was a complete surprise.
“A Tribulation Weapon,” Jiang Chengxuan murmured, recalling his past experiences. During his study of Yuanhan Immortal’s old wounds, he had glimpsed a scene where the immortal had been injured by a weapon infused with tribulation energy. Could it have been a Tribulation Weapon?
Drawing from his extensive knowledge, Jiang Chengxuan knew that Tribulation Weapons were incredibly rare, forged from the purest tribulation energy itself. Such weapons were considered ancient relics, as the techniques to create them had long been lost to time. Even during Yuanhan Immortal’s era, the weapon that had injured him was likely an incomplete artifact discovered in some ancient ruin.
True Tribulation Weapons were capable of inflicting catastrophic damage, able to match the power of divine or primordial forces. The ability to harness tribulation energy, one of the most fundamental and destructive forces in existence, made these weapons immensely powerful.
“Tribulation Weapons are as terrifying as they are rare,” Jiang Chengxuan thought. Such power could easily match the might of an Earth Immortal treasure.
Moments later, suppressing his excitement, Jiang Chengxuan opened a spatial gate and returned to his personal chamber. There, he summoned the system once more, and in a flash of dark light, the Tribulation Weapon appeared before him.
As the weapon materialized, waves of profound tribulation energy filled the room, but Jiang Chengxuan noticed that the energy lacked its usual destructive instinct. Instead of devouring everything around it, the tribulation energy merely hovered like a mist, swirling protectively around the weapon.
Pushing aside the mist, Jiang Chengxuan finally saw the weapon’s true form. It was a slender, long-bladed sword with a hilt seemingly forged from black celestial ore, faintly crackling with red lightning. The blade itself, made of condensed gray mist, gleamed with a cold, sharp edge.
“Incredible!” Jiang Chengxuan exclaimed. The weapon’s aura was subtle yet powerful, its energy restrained but its potential immense.
He knew that the weapon’s true strength would only be revealed when it was infused with pure tribulation energy, transforming into a devastating tool of destruction. Such a weapon was not merely a tool but a weapon of chaos for times of great turmoil.
Out of curiosity, Jiang Chengxuan summoned the Tribulation Essence he had previously acquired, which manifested in the form of a serpentine energy. To his surprise, as soon as the Tribulation Essence appeared, it recoiled in fear, seemingly intimidated by the weapon.
“Fascinating,” Jiang Chengxuan thought. Even the tribulation essence, which had previously shown no fear, now seemed to tremble before this weapon.
Intrigued, Jiang Chengxuan decided to test the weapon’s capabilities. He directed a small amount of tribulation energy into the Tribulation Weapon.
“Rumble!”
In an instant, the weapon erupted with a terrifying force, unleashing a storm of tribulation energy. Black winds howled, and the weapon seemed to swell in power, radiating a menacing glow. For a moment, Jiang Chengxuan felt as if he had stepped into the heart of a tribulation itself.
