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

Jiang Anran, with her resilient spirit, is not discouraged but contemplative.

Among countless cultivators, she stands out as a genius, and with a long road ahead, she has no intention of stopping her pursuit.

After Jiang Chengxuan left, she planned to cultivate in seclusion to break through.

After parting with his disciple Jiang Anran, Jiang Chengxuan went to meet the last group of people he had in mind.

Thanks to the information provided by Jiang Anran during their conversation, he quickly found who he was looking for—a middle-aged man and a young girl.

“Brother Huang, it’s been a long time. And Ling’er, how are you both?”

Jiang Chengxuan appeared beside them, his arrival drawing everyone’s attention, surprising the man and the girl.

“Brother Jiang!”

“Brother Jiang!”

The faces of Huang Wenyu and his daughter Huang Ling’er, Jiang Chengxuan’s old friends who had later ascended to the Floodgate Realm, lit up with joy upon seeing him.

Jiang Chengxuan had learned of their whereabouts from Jiang Anran.

“Shall we chat?” Jiang Chengxuan suggested with a smile.

Then, the three of them found a place to chat.

However, their conversation was brief; Jiang Chengxuan was mainly catching up on their well-being and was pleased to learn that they were doing well in the Haoran Sect, benefiting from his connections.

After exchanging pleasantries, Jiang Chengxuan pointed out some cultivation problems for the father and daughter.

He then bade farewell and gave them some cultivation resources before leaving.

He had already achieved his goal of visiting the two of them, which was letting others know that they had a close relationship. There was nothing else to say for the time being.

Later, at the Haoran Sect’s administrative hall, Jiang Chengxuan, in his capacity as Vice Sect Master, specifically requested improved resources for Jiang Anran, Huang Wenyu, and Huang Ling’er.

Under the legitimate arrangement of Vice Sect Master Jiang Chengxuan, these instructions were bound to be rigorously implemented.

The elders of the Haoran Sect, aware of their relationships, understood that these three would have a smooth journey ahead, thanks to Jiang Chengxuan’s generosity.

It could be said that he had done everything he could. He went above and beyond what many cultivators would do, showing profound affection and a sense of duty toward his friends and disciples that cannot be simply summed up as kind-hearted or loyal.

Jiang Chengxuan had a lot of feelings for these old friends and had never forgotten them.

Having made these arrangements for the foreseeable future, Jiang Chengxuan was free from concerns for his upcoming seclusion.

He returned to Cloud Mist Peak alone, feeling an unparalleled sense of contentment and inner peace.

Without any hesitation, he stepped into his cultivation chamber, and with a sweep of his hand, reactivated the layers of restrictions.

With the vast chamber sealed off, Jiang Chengxuan’s mindset shifted to one of complete tranquility.

This time, he did not do anything else and went straight to the Spirit Gathering Array, sat down on a cushion, and prepared himself for cultivation.

With a wave of his right hand, all the meticulously chosen resources were set in place around the array.

Some were to power the array, some to stabilize his Dao, and others to provide the spiritual light needed for breakthroughs.

These treasures, crucial for his attempt to break through to Dao Mastery, were selected with great care, their procurement one of the main reasons he had emerged from seclusion earlier.

Buzz—

As these treasures appeared, they resonated with each other, immediately filling the entire cave with a halo of colorful light, turning the space into a sacred site where the power of the Dao thrived, nourishing Jiang Chengxuan’s physical body and primordial spirit.

This preparation alone significantly increased the likelihood of a cultivator’s breakthrough to the realm of Dao Mastery by at least 20%.

Under their nourishment, Jiang Chengxuan’s state reached an optimal condition, and the aura of his Dao Fusion was fully unleashed without any reservation.

Yet, Jiang Chengxuan did not stop there; he continued to elevate his aura until he touched the threshold of the next realm.

At that moment, he experienced a profoundly mysterious sensation—the bottleneck.

Calm and composed, he regulated his breathing, continuously and steadfastly channeling his Dharmic power in waves against the bottleneck.

Soon, under the enhancement of his peak Dao Fusion, a glimmer of breakthrough spiritual light appeared in his mind.

Then, the surrounding treasures, already prepared, began to work, gradually amplifying this flicker of spiritual light.

Jiang Chengxuan focused his mind, took out a box, and swallowed a pill inside—it was the Enlightenment Pill awarded by the system.

With the effects of this pill, the probability of breakthrough further increased significantly.

As the pill’s power spread, Jiang Chengxuan felt his pores relax and his primordial spirit become incredibly clear and transparent.

In his sea of consciousness, it was as though the Dao was being opened anew, with the primordial chaos emerging.

Mysterious energies began flowing through his meridians to every limb, elevating his comprehension of the Dao to an unparalleled level.

This was an esoteric and profound understanding, a concept now made tangible by the pill’s power, elevating Jiang Chengxuan’s grasp of Karma, the Dao rule, and Dharmic power to its peak.

In an instant, he understood what it meant to master the Dao and how it differed from Dao Fusion.

Those who fuse with the Dao merge their being with the world’s rules, while those who master the Dao generate their own Dao from the Dao itself.

Compared to Mahayana, the Dao Mastery may be immature, but it is a Dao born anew.

It does not follow the past, nor does it use oneself as the conduit to wield the power of the Dao. Instead, it uses the Dao as the conduit, mastering the power of a new Dao.

With the power of the Enlightenment Pill, Jiang Chengxuan instantly recalled all his past experiences related to mastering the Dao, including battles with enemies at this realm.

These insights, gained from previous combats, now played back in his mind at a thousandfold speed, under the influence of the pill.

All these insights, now surfacing at once, provided Jiang Chengxuan with every possibility of enlightenment.

At this moment, the world of the Five Elements and the cycle of Samsara manifested around him, with countless beings and the cycle of the Five Elements evolving wildly under his control.
