Chapter 1064: Children of Mystic Light, A Glorious Century

Editor: Henyee Translations

The two of them had sensed Elder Sun’s hurried return to the sect and were waiting for him. Seeing Elder Sun’s expression, they both felt a sense of foreboding.

“Elder Sun, what has happened that you have come back in such a rush?”

The next moment, Jiang Chengxuan waved his sleeve, and he and Shen Ruyan disappeared from their spot, instantly appearing in front of Elder Sun.

“Sect Master, the secret realm we were monitoring has undergone strange changes,” Elder Sun announced without hesitation as soon as he saw Jiang Chengxuan.

He immediately reported everything that had occurred at the location of the secret realm.

“The secret realm became invisible? And it’s only visible to those above the Dao Integration realm?” Jiang Chengxuan muttered gravely to himself.

Having waited so long, the news that came was unexpected, and he instantly sensed something was wrong.

Could such coincidences truly exist in this world?

Just as he decided to investigate this secret realm, it conveniently began to show signs of disappearing.

To Jiang Chengxuan, it seemed as though someone was controlling everything, evading him.

He felt as if a layer of misty darkness had enveloped everything.

“Husband, perhaps we should personally go there and investigate,” Shen Ruyan suggested slowly, her intuition also strongly kicking in.

Jiang Chengxuan nodded, his mind also leaning towards the idea of going there to check things out for himself.

“Elder Sun, you stay here at the sect for now. I’ll go and check the reality of that secret realm.”

Without hesitation, Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan prepared to cross the void, but just at that moment, a speck of blue light was rapidly approaching from the sky.

The object was infused with the aura of the Haoran Sect, clearly a messaging jade slip.

At this, Jiang Chengxuan had to stop his departure. He felt an intuition that this message was crucially related to the secret realm.

Jiang Chengxuan reached into the void and, from miles away, the messaging object instantly appeared in his hand.

As he injected spiritual light, the message unfolded. Looking through the message, Jiang Chengxuan felt a shadow over his heart.

The mystic light secret realm had vanished in an instant!

This meant that the clues they had finally connected to the anomalies had bizarrely been cut off.

Invisibly, it seemed as if an unseen hand was manipulating everything.

Eventually, Elder Sun’s disciples were also recalled to the sect, and the plan to investigate the secret realm was thus prematurely concluded.

…

Time mercilessly passed, and within the blink of an eye, hundreds of years had gone by.

Since the strange disappearance of the mystic light secret realm, Jiang Chengxuan and Qin Shenwu had not found similar clues in any other secret realms.

Everything acted as if nothing had happened, and the prophesied “Black Sun” had not appeared.

Over the centuries, countless secret realms still emerged, but their levels were no longer as high as before, and over time, the frequency also gradually returned to normal.

The Floodgate Realm’s glorious century seemed truly just like a gift from heaven, causing no anomalies.

Numerous sect cultivators rose to prominence during this splendid century, quickly entering the ranks of superpowers.

While some were happy, others were worried. Under Jiang Chengxuan’s governance, the disciples of the Haoran Sect did not taste much of the sweetness from the secret realms.

This situation undoubtedly caused mockery from other sects in secret.

Some ridiculed the Haoran Sect for being foolish, for believing in so-called prophetic warnings from immortals, missing out on a glorious era and a tremendous opportunity.

Some mocked Jiang Chengxuan for being overly cautious, for choosing to isolate and worry unnecessarily during a crucial time.

Others thought Jiang Chengxuan had exhausted his talents, not living up to his previous fame, becoming mediocre.

Regardless, after many sects took the opportunity to rise, the Haoran Sect remained the foremost power in the Floodgate Realm, and these talks were only dared to be discussed in secret.

In this glorious century of the Floodgate Realm, those who benefitted the most were those who seized opportunities from that particular mystic light secret realm.

Those cultivators who had been bathed in the mystic light and fallen unconscious subsequently displayed astonishing talents upon awakening.

Even if they were originally mediocre, after being illuminated by the mystic light, they instantly became top-tier geniuses.

Whether it was their comprehension skills or physical constitution, both improved dramatically.

Many of these individuals made rapid progress in their cultivation over the next hundred years, not taking long to reach levels above Dao Fusion.

For a time, they were known as the “Children of Mystic Light,” unrivaled in the Floodgate Realm, and were welcomed by any sect.

Especially those new superpowers that rose during the glorious century were particularly eager.

This batch of suddenly advanced Dao Fusion Saints was quickly scooped up by various sects, entering into high positions within these organizations, becoming akin to revered elders.

Yet, all this had little to do with the Haoran Sect.

Under Jiang Chengxuan’s strict policies, the Haoran Sect did not recruit any cultivators associated with the mystic secret realms, whether they were disciples or elders.

Because of Jiang Chengxuan’s actions, the Floodgate Realm subtly divided into two factions of cultivators:

On one side were those who shunned the cultivators who had prospered during the glorious century, believing that those who advanced through the opportunities provided by the mystic light secret realms would eventually fade into mediocrity.

On the other side were the cultivators who had reached the pinnacle thanks to the century’s opportunities, naturally banding together to oppose those who disparaged the mystic light secret realms of the glorious century.

However, all of this was irrelevant to Jiang Chengxuan. These matters could not impact him.

His focus remained solely on the prophecy about the Black Sun, regardless of how the outside world speculated,

he never wavered in his conviction.

But ever since the secret realms began to return to normal, the messages that could be investigated became fewer and fewer.

Yet, his uneasy premonition never diminished.

Especially regarding those proclaimed geniuses born from the mystic light secret realm, every time such news reached him,

Jiang Chengxuan felt an indescribable sense of eeriness.

That mystic light secret realm remained a shadow in his heart that he could not erase.

Was it truly possible for an opportunity to directly enhance someone’s innate talent to such a degree?

Even after years of scouring through the archives and jade slips of Immortal Eastern River, Jiang Chengxuan could not find any analogous phenomena.

Could such a thing exist only in the Floodgate Realm, and not even in the thirty-six immortal domains?

Such a probability was incredibly slim, almost laughable.

Jiang Chengxuan was firm in his belief that his instincts were not wrong.
