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

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

As this cultivator finished speaking, the same question arose in the minds of the other cultivators present.

All eyes turned to the four Heavenly Lords at the front.

Purple Flame, Infinite Ocean, Everlasting Mountain, and Xuan Yang couldn’t help but look at each other.

In the end, Heavenly Lord Purple Flame said,

“That’s right. Since it’s a calamity for the entire cultivation world of the Nine Essences, other than the northern border, the eastern end, the southern wilderness, the western desert, and even the central plains are naturally unable to avoid the rampage of demonic cultivators.

However, in each demonic calamity, our northern border is the first to face their onslaught. The invasion of the Nine Essences Immortal Cultivation World always begins by breaching the northern border and then spreading to other regions.

Therefore, in comparison, the scale of the demonic calamity in the northern border is indeed greater than the scale of the demonic calamity in the other regions.

Moreover, our northern border is in the most difficult situation among the five regions of the Nine Essences Immortal World.

Se??ch ?ew?o?e? / o?g o? ?oo?l?

As for why they don’t actively support our northern border when they have the capacity to…”

At that point, Heavenly Lord Purple Flame clearly revealed a hint of anger. “That’s because we cannot afford the price they demand for their support.”

“What?”

Hearing these words from Purple Flame, everyone present, including Jiang Chengxuan, almost doubted their own ears.

What did he mean by we not being able to afford the price for their support?

What was the meaning of this?

Many faces showed an expression of utter disbelief.

After all, they were facing a demonic calamity, a calamity concerning the safety of the entire Nine Essences Immortal Cultivation World.

They actually…

Jiang Chengxuan was also a little shocked.

Indeed, no matter the time, such distasteful matters were unavoidable.

Could it be that those people didn’t understand the gravity of the situation? Or that they didn’t realize what the complete fall of the northern border would mean? Jiang Chengxuan found it hard to believe.

But for them to offer help, they still demanded conditions so outrageous that even the Heavenly Lords couldn’t agree. This was enough to show that if some things did not really happen to them, they would never wake up.

At this point, Jiang Chengxuan and everyone present understood why cultivators from the northern border were looked down upon and considered country bumpkins when they went to other regions.

A sense of anger unavoidably rose in their hearts.

Had it not been for the northern border always bearing the brunt, would those other regions, comfortably positioned in the rear, have had such an “easy time? At least in terms of losses, they wouldn’t have been much less than the northern border.

Without dwelling further on this topic, Purple Flame and the others began to arrange the setup of the array.

Among them, Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan were also assigned the task of refining level 5 array discs because they were both level 5 array masters.

There were still about four years before the demonic calamity erupted. However, in fact, their time was still relatively tight.

After all, setting up such a massive Level 6 array was no easy feat. Fortunately, among all the cultivators present, there were many with Level 3 or higher array knowledge.

With everyone working hard and efficiently, they should be able to set up the Nine Heavens Starfall Array in the shortest possible time.

Not long after.

Jiang Chengxuan, Shen Ruyan, and Tang Baisheng returned to the Jiang family’s fort.

Shortly thereafter, Jiang Chengxuan summoned everyone.

Then, he took out a mirror that was a part of the Grand Sun Mirror and said to the people present:

■’All of you, line up and walk past the mirror one by one.”

Though the Jiang family cultivators were puzzled by Jiang Chengxuan’s request, no one dared to defy him.

Starting with Jiang Renyi, the family head, everyone walked past the mirror. Jiang Chengxuan and the others watched, relieved to see no reaction from the mirror.

However, just as they were easing their minds, one of their Jiang family’s guest cultivators suddenly emitted a burst of pitch-black demonic qi.

Under the mirror’s influence, he couldn’t help but scream in agony as golden flames burned painfully on his body.

This scene shocked many of the Jiang family members present.

But some people immediately understood what was happening and their expressions changed instantly.

“Not good, this person is a demonic cultivator!”

As these words fell, the rest of the people also reacted.

The sinister demonic aura emanating from the individual unmistakably indicated authentic demonic cultivation techniques.

It turns out that the mirror set up by their ancestor could actually identify demon cultivators.

At this moment, the remaining few guest cultivators of the Jiang family s expressions changed drastically.

Without saying a word, they turned to flee, but just then, a light snort resounded in their ears.

Instantly, these individuals were struck as if by lightning, bleeding from their ears, noses, eyes, and mouths.

However, Jiang Chengxuan did not rush to kill them but instead placed his hand on each of their heads in turn.

Soul Searcingh!

Strictly speaking, this method was somewhat against the heavens, but Jiang Chengxuan felt that for these demon cultivators, especially those hidden within his own Jiang family, it was a necessary action.

Soon, Jiang Chengxuan learned some things from these individuals, though nothing of significant value.

Come to think of it, it made sense.

Given the system implemented by the Jiang family throughout the state of Jiang, there wasn’t much room for demon cultivators to survive.

These individuals had infiltrated the Jiang family years ago.

They had managed to remain well-hidden until today, when they were exposed by the Grand Sun Mirror.

Nevertheless, the necessary checks had to continue.

Jiang Chengxuan then had Jiang Renyi and others call over cultivators from other sects like the Jade Water Sword Pavilion and Heavenly Yue Sect.

This investigation uncovered quite a few hidden demon cultivators.

By the time Jiang Chengxuan and his group had finished dealing with all the hidden demon cultivators, more than half a day had passed.

It was only then that Jiang Chengxuan, Shen Ruyan, and Tang Baisheng started assigning tasks to the remaining people as per the instructions of Heavenly Lord Purple Flame and the others.

They didn’t go into too much detail but warned everyone that the success of overcoming this demon calamity depended on this mission.

Everyone present understood the gravity of the situation and quickly took on their respective tasks.

At the same time.

Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan returned to a temporary cave abode they had set up.

Before they left the Demon Slaying Hall, the four Heavenly Lords had already provided them with all the necessary materials for crafting the Level 5 array discs and array eyes.

He also gave them the materials needed for the cultivators of the Jiang family to refine lower-level array discs.

Moreover, the task assigned to Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan was one of the most critical array eyes in the Nine Heavens Starfall Array, reflecting the great trust the four Heavenly Lords had in the couple.

The couple exchanged glances, and without much conversation, they began their work.

Just as they had told everyone earlier, this task was crucial for successfully overcoming the demon calamity.

Therefore, everyone, including them, did not dare to be negligent.

[Ding.]

Just as Jiang Chengxuan was about to start refining the level 5 array disc, a system notification suddenly sounded in his mind.

[System mission issued. Host, please complete too array eye refinements..]
