Chapter 312: The Spatial Channel of the Prosperous Stone Immortal Star
At that very moment, within the Immortal Martial Continent, in one of the sixteen domains referred to as the Pure Frost Domain, not far from the Moon Plucking Heavenly Sect, a terrifying fluctuation suddenly emanated, sending shivers down the spines of those who sensed it!
"What's going on!?" The Dao Palace realm cultivator responsible for guarding the area, Zhu Zhihai, immediately changed his expression, "Could it be another invasion by the demon race!?"
Without a moment's hesitation, this cultivator sent word to the Purple Heaven Holy Land.
Then, his face turning pale yet resolute, he rushed towards the direction from where the abnormal fluctuation was originating.
Even if it were an army of the demon race, he had to ascertain their numbers and gauge the strength and arrangement of their forces.
...
Inside the Purple Heaven Holy Land, Jiang Chen was seated in a massive molten crater. In front of him floated a white long sword with a purple hilt, emanating a faint glow. It was the Purple Heaven Immortal Martial Sword. "Finally, it's completely repaired!"
The process of repairing the Purple Heaven Immortal Martial Sword had consumed most of the artifact refining materials he possessed.
But the outcome was highly gratifying.
The Purple Heaven Immortal Martial Sword was now fully restored, and he no longer had to fret about its power diminishing or it suddenly breaking down.
"It's a pity I can't use the Transcendence realm scythe I obtained from Bo Lang," Jiang Chen thought, recalling Bo Lang's flashy scythe weapon, and smiled with a hint of regret. "Otherwise, I would have two powerful immortal tool-level weapons."
Just then, a message suddenly arrived through his transmission jade token.
'What?' Jiang Chen thought. 'A strange fluctuation appeared near the Pure Frost Domain's Moon Plucking Heavenly Sect? It's similar to a spatial gate but even more intense and suffocating!'The source of this content nov(el)bi((n))
'It seems that a new spatial channel is about to be opened.'
'The possibility of it being the demon race is slim. They've just lost a million-strong army in the spatial channel, so how would they dare to brazenly open a spatial channel to invade the Pure Frost Domain? That would be like lighting a candle next to a gas leak, seeking death!'
'Could it be another power? Could it be the Prosperous Stone Immortal Star?'
'Dwelling on it now won't help; I'll have to go and see for myself.' Without a moment's hesitation, he took out the Cave Heaven's secret key, opened the spatial gate, and passed through the Immortal Martial Cave Heaven to head towards the Pure Frost Domain.
During this time, the entire Immortal Martial Continent was on high alert. All the renowned powerhouses and promising talents of the Immortal Martial Continent were ushered into the Immortal Martial Cave Heaven.
While these powerhouses stood ready to enter the Pure Frost Domain at Jiang Chen's beckoning, he chose to assess the situation personally.
After all, he had two methods of concealment at his disposal: the Heavenly Demon Hidden Heart Ring and the Death Calamity Dark Star Moon Dao Embryo. Particularly the latter, given his current prowess, no one within his realm could feasibly detect him.
In no time, Jiang Chen arrived at the Pure Frost Domain via the Immortal Martial Cave Heaven, which acted as a 'transit hub'. The journey was astonishingly swift, taking merely five or six breaths' time.
'Heavenly Demon Hidden Heart Ring! Death Calamity Dark Star Moon Dao Embryo! Conceal my presence!' With this intention, Jiang Chen invoked both concealment techniques, and he immediately disappeared from where he stood.
"It's alright; it's not as vast as the one below the Bottomless Abyss."
"Who do you think is on the other end? Could it be an army from the demon race?"
"If only Lord Jiang Chen were here; he would undoubtedly be capable of annihilating this spatial channel!"
One after another, formidable individuals assembled beneath the spatial channel. All present were no less than cultivators of the Inquiring Journey realm.
Witnessing the mild panic among the cultivators below, Jiang Chen swiftly communicated with them. "Everyone, remain calm. I am overseeing the situation from a concealed position. Proceed as though I am not present."
"It's Lord Jiang Chen, the most revered figure in the Immortal Martial Continent!" a cultivator declared, his tone brimming with both admiration and relief.
"With Lord Jiang Chen overseeing, what is there to be afraid of?"
"Let's heed Lord Jiang Chen's instructions; continue our duties and do not betray his presence!"
The group of cultivators swiftly converged on a shared understanding, feigning unawareness of Jiang Chen's presence and portraying unease towards the spatial channel.
'Well played.' Jiang Chen gave a subtle nod of approval, his focus returning to the spatial channel.
By now, the spatial channel had fully solidified.
'The moment is near!' Jiang Chen's eyes sharpened, his concentration unwavering.
...
In the distant Prosperous Stone Immortal Star, within the shadows of a grand, dimly lit palace situated directly below the spatial channel, the elderly man with a white beard instructed the heavily armored man. "The spatial channel stands open! Sustaining it demands immense resources, so time is of the essence!"
"Roger that!" The burly figure acknowledged, promptly issuing a directive. "Lead the vanguard to the spatial channel's entrance!"
Without delay, a procession of ashen-faced cultivators, their power levels relatively modest, was ushered to the brink of the channel.
These individuals, owing to their inferior cultivation states, were dispensable. They were selected to probe potential perils that might lurk beyond the channel.
"Proceed!" The armored figure gestured, and with an unseen might, propelled the group into the channel.
Shortly after, a cultivator from the Dao Comprehension realm, clutching a sizable mirror, announced, "All have survived." This was evident from the multitude of luminescent dots on the mirror, each still brightly aglow.
