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

Chapter 1042: Calamity Strikes, A Glimmer of Hope
Editor: Henyee Translations

With just a thought, an immortal can affect the lives of millions, and the entire Immortal cave abode is no smaller than a whole realm.

Throughout the countless years since the death of Immortal Eastern River, many beings, by chance or destiny, have made their way to this Immortal cave abode, creating a thriving world.

This world was not only composed of the powerful guardian beasts that Jiang Chengxuan and others had encountered but also included countless weaker species that had just begun to touch the threshold of spiritual energy.

The impending collapse of the Immortal cave abode drove these creatures out of hiding, swarming in groups throughout the crumbling world, desperately seeking a path to survival.

Fortunately, amidst this misfortune, all the beasts had lost their appetite for hunting, indifferent even to easy prey.

Under Eastern River’s design, there was no distinction between the strong and the weak.

As Jiang Chengxuan and his group left the Immortal cave abode, disasters erupted elsewhere.

Terrifying forces burst from various regions of the cave, sending myriad elemental powers skyrocketing into the heavens, weaving a tapestry of apocalyptic visions.

These were the opportunities and trials left behind by Immortal Eastern River. As the cave began to self-destruct, these sealed forces unleashed their fury, accelerating the onset of destruction.

Stars comparable in size to continents fell from the sky, bringing extreme cold that instantly sparked a terrifying cold wave, freezing thousands of miles.

Purple flames leaked from somewhere, burning through the void and tearing open patches of chaotic blackness, from which chaotic energies surged, instantly withering all plant life.

Towering mountains suddenly crumbled into massive boulders that swept across the land, creating huge chasms that split the cave, a horrifying sight to behold.

Such scenes of destruction appeared everywhere in the Immortal cave abode, and all living beings there fled in terror.

Among the fleeing masses were forces from various sects that had infiltrated from the Heavenly Torrent Realm, nearly every group now diminished in number.

Under such immense power, not even the Great Dao Immortals could protect everyone.

“Shifu! Save me!” cried a disciple from the Five Elements Heaven Sect, caught in a storm of purple flames.

But faced with the sweeping storm, his fellow sect members did not even pause to look back, turning away and leaving him to be consumed by the flames, his tears flowing as he succumbed to regret and turned to ashes.

Betrayal, abandonment, and tough decisions played out in every sect group, with the exception of the Haoran Sect.

In such times, it was nearly impossible for one person to ensure everyone’s safety, and there was also the urgent need to find a way out.

Every cultivator there, without exception, faced attacks of varying degrees, including those from the Pantheon Sect, with casualties among their ranks.

As the entire cave collapsed, no one could afford to worry about others anymore, and everyone immediately began searching for an exit.

Given the vastness of this realm, reaching its edge to escape was tremendously difficult.

Their vision was filled with endless disasters and destruction, and even the Daolords of the sects couldn’t help but look solemn.

In an obscure part of the Immortal cave abode, two figures were desperately dodging dangers. Dressed in white and green robes, they were the haggard-looking Daolord Skeleton and Daolord Phantom Ghost, severely weakened from their previous encounter with Jiang Chengxuan and his group.

After their defeat, they had hidden in a secret realm, fearing pursuit by Jiang and his companions. They spent their days in anxiety, not even fully recovering their strength, but now faced the sudden collapse of the Immortal cave abode.

Incredibly distressed, they dodged disasters in a doomsday scene, also constantly wary of other pursuers, given the numerous enemies of the Bone Magic Sect and the Soul Sect.

Their luck was terribly poor; having just escaped one disaster zone, they immediately encountered a sky-covering storm of purple flames sweeping towards them.

For the still-recovering duo, this level of power was catastrophic.

Standing atop a hastily made effigy of bones, the Daolord Skeleton manifested his rules, smashing through the oncoming wall of fire.

The eerie purple flames turned the bone effigy red-hot, causing his wounds to ache painfully.

This effigy, made from the remains of beasts in the secret realm, was not very powerful and barely serviceable for travel.

Feeling the heat of the purple flames, his heart filled with resentment—if not for the sneak attack by Jiang and his group, how would he have ended up in such a dire situation?

“Must we perish here today? I am not willing! Haoran Sect, I want you all dead!”

As the unstoppable whirlwind of purple flames broke through their defenses, the sight of imminent death loomed over the Daolord Skeleton, who roared in agony from the dark depths he had survived for countless years.

Beside him, the Daolord Phantom Ghost also wore an expression of absolute despair, his face twisted in agony.

At this moment, this life-threatening crisis was unfolding everywhere within the Immortal cave abode. There were no exceptions under such calamity.

However, just when all the infiltrating cultivators were succumbing to despair, a miraculous opportunity for survival began to manifest.

Amidst the collapsing heavens and earth, a massive rift slowly opened in the sky of the Immortal cave abode.

Thunderous rumbles echoed as a mysterious light shone down from the rift, forcefully creating a stable passage across the vast Immortal cave abode.

Under the influence of this rift, all the calamities momentarily subsided.

Undoubtedly, this was the last bit of hope left by Immortal Eastern River for all beings. He had foreseen the potential scenarios for the cave and had planned not to cause unnecessary slaughter in his strategic setup.

Instantly, the countless beings within the Immortal cave abode rekindled their hope and seized this momentary opportunity. Though it was unclear where this passage led, everyone was too desperate to care, and they all rushed towards it with all their might.

Countless beings unleashed their strongest powers, turning into streams of light, large and small, densely packed as they surged across the sky toward the enormous rift.

This scene was staggeringly breathtaking. Amidst the natural disasters, billions of luminous trails soared into the sky, aiming for the vast rift.
