Chapter 966: The Immortal’s Cave Abode, the Opportunity for Ascension

Editor: Henyee Translations

The Daolord of the Pantheon looked at Qin Shenwu and Jiang Chengxuan with a confident gaze, convinced that the lure of an immortal’s cave abode was irresistible to any cultivator.

Throughout the annals of the Floodgate Realm, the discovery of an immortal’s cave abode has been a rarity, one that could be counted on the fingers of one’s hands.

Each discovery has heralded the emergence of earth-shattering treasures, some even possessing the miraculous power to aid one in achieving Dao and ascending to Immortality.

Such treasures could move even the stoniest of hearts, compelling one to brave dangers.

Thus, he believed that both Jiang Chengxuan and Qin Shenwu would naturally not refuse such an opportunity.

However, the perils involved are unspeakable.

Inside the immortal’s cave abode, the more exquisite the treasure, the greater the horrors that accompany it.

It has been said that even a Daolord of Mahayana Realm once fell within an immortal’s cave abode due to greed—such is the level of terror.

At times, immortals themselves have manifested in the mortal world, brawling within the cave abode to contest over these fateful treasures,

Even immortals covet them, making the prospect even more daunting.

“How about it? I don’t mean to conceal the risk from you—where there is great risk, there is also great opportunity. I trust you understand,” said the Daolord from the Pantheon Sect, continuing to persuade Jiang Chengxuan and Qin Shenwu,

He believed that given their strength and confidence, they would certainly not casually forsake such an opportunity.

That’s why he chose Qin Shenwu and Jiang Chengxuan,

Both are bold yet cautious, and moreover, they are both formidable in their own right.

This is the good reputation that the Haoran Sect has cultivated over the years.

If it were Nanning Daolord or the likes from the Qiankun Palace, the Daolord of the Pantheon Sect would definitely not invite them.

Even if they had the courage, he wouldn’t trust them under any circumstances.

Without trust, what use is there in numbers? They would only be a burden.

Strength, courage, and loyalty—these are indispensable qualities he looks for in a companion,

And in the entire Floodgate Realm, only Qin Shenwu and Jiang Chengxuan truly fit the bill and are also acquaintances of his.

“Daolord, could you elaborate more on the situation regarding that immortal’s cave abode?”

After pondering for a moment, Jiang Chengxuan and his shifu, Qin Shenwu, exchanged glances and slowly inquired.

They were well aware of the dangers of the immortal’s cave abode,

Yet, in the path of cultivation, what is ever completely safe? Moreover, such an opportunity is truly rare.

The Daolord from the Pantheon Sect had not guessed wrong; both men were deeply interested in the immortal’s cave abode.

Hearing their words, the Daolord’s face displayed even more composure,

Undoubtedly, Jiang Chengxuan and Qin Shenwu had already expressed their willingness to go.

Thus, he smiled lightly and began to explain the details of the immortal’s cave abode to them.

“That ancient immortal’s cave abode was discovered in a remote extraterrestrial space, though its exact location still needs to be determined.”

“But we can be certain of its general direction, and with careful exploration, we should be able to find the entrance.”

Upon hearing this, Jiang Chengxuan understood. What the Daolord from the Pantheon Sect described was merely a tip, and probably not very secretive.

Likely, other powers within the Floodgate Realm were already aware, not just an exclusive piece of information for the Pantheon Sect.

By sharing this location, the Daolord was essentially doing them a favor,

Then seeking a reliable partner in return.

But, Jiang Chengxuan had his own calculations.

That is, forming an alliance with the Pantheon Sect was indeed a good strategy.

After all, within the entire Floodgate Realm, the Pantheon Sect is a highly established power, subtly dominating,

And their reputation has always been good.

They have also earned much goodwill during the war of the Five Realms, combating the demonic beings from different races just as resolutely.

Joining forces with the Pantheon Sect, an alliance between the Haoran Sect and the Pantheon Sect, would indeed be a mutually beneficial union of strengths.

Jiang Chengxuan remained silent, his eyes expressing everything,

He looked towards Qin Shenwu, then back at the Daolord from the Pantheon Sect, and without speaking, all three understood each other’s intentions.

“It seems, this immortal’s cave abode is not just about the dangers within.”

Jiang Chengxuan smiled and said,

This clearly indicated that besides the perils inside the immortal’s cave abode, there were external competitors to contend with.

He hinted that he already knew that other sects were aware of this information.

“Indeed, otherwise, I wouldn’t have sought to cooperate with you two,”

The Daolord from the Pantheon Sect also smiled, laying his cards on the table.

“Given that the sects aware of this information are not few, if the cave abode is entered by all, our chances would be significantly diminished. It might be better if our two sects join forces. This way, we can locate the entrance before others and share the fortunes equally between us.”

The Daolord from the Pantheon Sect laid out his plans straightforwardly, recognizing that it was unlikely for one sect to dominate alone. He thus proposed a joint venture, aiming to push out other competitors.

“Since you are straightforward, I won’t be secretive either. This partnership could indeed be feasible.”

“However, could there be more details about this immortal’s cave abode available?”

To this, Jiang Chengxuan still responded coolly.

His concern was what exactly lay within the cave abode. If it were mere trifles, he might not consider taking the risk.

After all, with other forces now involved and it being an ancient immortal’s cave abode, the risks were undoubtedly substantial.

“Of course,” replied the Daolord from the Pantheon Sect, no longer withholding any information, and slowly continued:

“That immortal’s cave abode is an ancient relic left in the extraterrestrial realms by a certain immortal, so there is no need to worry about it having an owner.”

“Moreover, according to the elder ancestors from our upper realm, the cave abode still contains many treasures left by that ancient immortal.”

“Even opportunities that could potentially allow one to ascend are present!”

Opportunities for ascension!

These words undoubtedly stirred the hearts of both Qin Shenwu and Jiang Chengxuan anew.

Even the Daolord from the Pantheon Sect, upon uttering these words, could not suppress his fervent expression.

Such treasures, except for those who dwell in the immortal realm, who would not be moved?

Moreover, if the chance for ascension came from an immortal, then its likelihood of being genuine was quite high,

Perhaps, that very immortal had ascended using this method as well.

“Is it really so? Such an opportunity could attract countless Daolords of Mahayana to compete fiercely.”

At this point, even Qin Shenwu could not help but interject,

Such an opportunity would tempt all Daolords of Mahayana to vie desperately.

“Most likely, after all, it’s from ancient times, and moreover, there is a sensation of the immortal’s essence within it.”

The Daolord from the Pantheon Sect spoke slowly.

His sect, being an established one with immortal ancestors, hence had such detailed information,

Aware of the opportunity related to the immortal’s origin.
