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

Chapter 1021: Fusion of Life and Death, Substantial Progress in Strength
Editor: Henyee Translations

In the distinct realm of life and death, defined by black and white, Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan carved out a new domain amidst the tumultuous energies of life and death.

This realm of life and death was in an extremely unstable state, where the rules of life and death clashed endlessly, causing waves of disturbances.

Jiang Chengxuan focused intently, manipulating the rule of death and applying his understanding of this world to forcibly converge these two forces within the cycle of life and death.

Under his control, the collision of the black and white torrents did not lead to destruction but instead twisted around each other persistently. In this way, the world of life and death began to stabilize gradually.

As these two forces entwined endlessly and reached a certain threshold, they began a peculiar fusion, crafting the spectacle of the life and death cycle.

This unique world was critical for Jiang Chengxuan to comprehend the fusion of life and death.

After an indeterminate period, Jiang Chengxuan exhaled softly and ceased his manipulation of the rule of life. At this moment, in the void of the life and death realm, a true realm of life and death had formed.

Streams from the realms of white and black were drawn into this new domain without needing Jiang Chengxuan’s intervention anymore, as the two powers flowed there automatically.

At this juncture, joy appeared in Jiang Chengxuan’s eyes.

Reaching this point meant that he had overcome the most challenging phase of comprehending the rules of life and death. The fusion of life and death was the most perilous aspect, but under Jiang Chengxuan’s formidable capabilities, this hurdle had been surpassed.

Now, all that was left was to enter this domain of fused life and death, grasp the Dao rule within, and then understand the rule of life as if it were within easy reach.

Having the capacity to comprehend any rule of life and death already demonstrated their profound insights; what remained was merely a matter of persistence with the help of the domain of life and death fusion.

At that moment, Shen Ruyan also experienced a surge of power, her rule of life manifesting profoundly and immaculately, her face alight with joy.

“Congratulations, Wife,” Jiang Chengxuan expressed the next moment as he and Shen Ruyan quickly came together to congratulate each other and share their insights on comprehension.

They had initially decided to study the rules of death and life respectively to save time. By sharing their experiences now, they could further assist each other in understanding the opposite rule, undoubtedly saving a considerable amount of time.

Moments later, having readjusted their energies to their peaks, the two approached the domain of life and death fusion. After exchanging a glance, they stepped into it together, embarking on their final understanding of the rules of life and death.

Time, within this uneventful space, once again entered a state of irrelevance…

After an unknown duration, Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan, seated within the domain of life and death fusion, opened their eyes almost simultaneously. At that instant, an ancient and formidable power burst forth from both, intertwining and unleashing a terrifying aura that disrupted everything around them.

A complete rule of life and death now manifested on them, a white river of life and a black river of death intersecting, creating an extraordinarily mystical realm of life and death.

Clearly, Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan, with each other’s help, had succeeded in comprehending the rules of life and death completely, mastering the full power of the rules of life and death.

BOOM!

It was at this moment, the environment around their realm of life and death gradually dissipated, the black and white blending into nothingness like dirt being wiped off a cloth.

Instantly, the scenery changed, and both Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan found themselves back in the outside world.

Standing atop a familiar desolate mountain, they felt as though they had traversed lifetimes.

To grasp the rules of life and death, they had forgotten everything in the realm of black and white.

Now, not knowing how much time had passed, they had transcended themselves and successfully returned.

At this moment, the aura contained within Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan had reached a terrifyingly powerful state.

Putting aside what level Jiang Chengxuan’s strength had achieved, even Shen Ruyan, who had just broken through to Dao Mastery, had, after comprehending the rules of life and death, gained the strength to contend with a Daolord.

And Jiang Chengxuan himself had gained an additional, incredibly powerful divine technique of life and death.

At this moment, if he were to encounter his old foe, Daolord Southbright, he could suppress him with a mere move.

He faintly sensed that his strength had now completely surpassed that of a regular Daolord.

To be able to suppress a Daolord with just a move at Dao Mastery was truly terrifying. Among his peers and even within the vast Floodgate Realm, Jiang Chengxuan had achieved the pinnacle, becoming invincible.

“Wife, the view from the peak is quite something, isn’t it?” said Jiang Chengxuan, holding Shen Ruyan’s hand beside him, with a smile.

Shen Ruyan, who had once feared being left behind due to a lack of opportunities, felt her spirits lift enormously after their series of gains in the Immortal cave abode. Now, perfectly content, she stood beside Jiang Chengxuan on the mountain summit.

“Yes, my husband, after all this time, we have finally reached this day,” Jiang Chengxuan replied, filled with emotion.

The path of cultivation treated years like dust; moments passed in the blink of an eye, transforming everything.

Back when he was merely looking up to the battles of Daolords during the great war, he could only feel powerless.

Back then, he vowed to stand at the pinnacle of the world himself.

And now, that moment had arrived so swiftly, it felt like another lifetime.

Just a few centuries had passed, and he had already surpassed the goals he had once set for himself. Such a rapid rise could not help but evoke deep feelings.

Rumble!

Just as Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan were about to indulge in more reflections, a violent surge of Dharmic power erupted from a distance. This force reached the Mahayana Daolord level, startling both Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan.

Moreover, the energy contained within this disturbance was eerily familiar to both of them.
