Chapter 1707: Primitive Rune, A Glimmer of Hope 2 Chapter 1707: Primitive Rune, A Glimmer of Hope 2 Editor: Henyee Translations Suddenly, the world underwent a dramatic change.

Day turned to night in an instant, and the ground beneath their feet violently collapsed.

A bottomless black hole appeared out of nowhere, devouring a nearby mountain!

The terrifying scene caused them to flee in panic, but this was not the end.

From the day the rune was activated, the black hole that appeared out of nowhere kept expanding, slowly devouring everything around it.

Mountains and rivers alike were consumed completely!

The world itself plunged into darkness as the black hole continued to spread.

Facing this terrifying sight, the people of the tribe thought they had angered the gods.

They went to the site where the rune had been discovered and performed sacrificial prayers.

Soon, the once-trembling rune fell silent, and everything seemed to return to normal.

The black hole ceased expanding.

Thus, the records on the tortoise shell came to an end.

It seemed like a story crafted by ancient people, and even the immortal sect that preserved this object had always treated it as a legend, used to admonish children of the clan.

After all, the tortoise shell carried no energy, yet recorded such mysterious events, which seemed like exaggeration.

However, after reading the records, Jiang Chengxuan, acZ,,a>>(tm) (Xuan Immortal), felt an immense surge of excitement.

His mind flashed with inspiration, as if he had received some divine revelation.

“This records the event of the collapse!” Jiang Chengxuan murmured, raising his head to meet Shen Ruoyan’s gaze.

She gently nodded, her eyes flickering with understanding.

Without a doubt, the story that seemed absurd and mundane on the surface, in this time of great calamity, was enough to shock anyone.

The appearance and spread of the collapse, along with the world descending into emptiness and darknessaEUR”these details aligned perfectly with the current events!

The only thing that hadn’t been heard of was the rune described in the records.

And surely, that rune might very well be the key to triggering the collapse!

In an instant, Jiang Chengxuan had a sudden realization, as if all the fog in his mind had cleared!

After such a long period of anxious waiting, he had finally received the crucial message!

This meant that the great calamity could still be averted!

The lives of the people in the Xuanming Immortal Domain still had a glimmer of hope!

“Lady, quickly seek out all the families connected to this tortoise shell, investigate their ancient books, and focus on the runes.

Gather all information related to the runes!” Realizing the importance of the discovery, Jiang Chengxuan’s eyes gleamed with divine light as he spoke to Shen Ruoyan.

Upon hearing this, Shen Ruoyan smiled brightly and said, “Do not worry, husband.

I’ve already sent people to do this!

Let’s first look through the information we have collected and see if anything is related to the runesaEUR|” “Good!” Without hesitation, the two immediately began searching through the various ancient books that had been gathered.

This thrilling discovery gave Jiang Chengxuan confidence that the Xuanming Immortal Domain’s fate was not yet sealed.

With his power, the entire Immortal Sect was mobilized to search frantically for all possible leads.

Immortals with immense strength, capable of shaking the heavens, now became like scholars, pouring over ancient texts every day.

Meanwhile, the collapse continued, slowly devouring mountains and seas, spreading an empty, boundless darkness.

Amid the increasingly tense situation, even greater chaos began to arise!

More and more beings and cultivators were forced to flee, crowding into limited spaces, causing inevitable conflicts to break out!

At first, there were skirmishes between humans and beast-kind.

Hungry beasts turned on each other, fighting for survival, and some even began to secretly hunt human cultivators and mortals.

This sparked numerous battles, as cultivators, already heavy-hearted and suppressed, had no patience left when faced with the beasts’ destruction.

They immediately launched counterattacks.

In an instant, the dim, oppressive world was filled with bloodshed, as cultivators and beasts clashed fiercely across the Xuanming Immortal Domain!

And the chaos didn’t end there.

Since conflicts arose between humans and beasts, it was only natural that there would be human-on-human conflicts as well.

During their flight, various immortal sects with deep-rooted enmities began to target each other, erupting into wars.

Even unrelated sects, frustrated by their journeys, engaged in battles.

As the battles raged across the land, the atmosphere of doom in the face of the great calamity seemed to intensify.

It felt like a storm of war was sweeping through the Immortal Domain, as conflicts and battles broke out everywhere!

People turned the terror and despair of the calamity into a thirst for blood, releasing their anger through ruthless slaughter.

“You beasts dare?!

We showed mercy to you, and you repay us with hostility!” “We have no choice but to survive!” “Today, either you die, or I do!” “The mountain gates have fallen, and the Immortal Domain will be destroyed.

What’s the point of living?!

I will kill you!” “Hmph!

A leopard cannot change its spots!

In the end, you are all traitors!” Among the crowded rivers and mountains, cries of anger erupted, followed by thunderous roars as the earth shook.

Countless cultivators and mortals were forced to flee in panic, and many perished in the chaos, unknowingly swept up in the carnage!

No one had expected that the first major casualties in this calamity would come from internal conflicts, not the collapse itself.

Or perhaps some had anticipated it, but chose not to stop it.

At this moment, Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruoyan had no time to consider any of this.

Their minds were completely focused on the vast amounts of information they had gathered.

With the discovery of the mysterious rune, Jiang Chengxuan and his companions had undoubtedly uncovered a clear path forward.

Finally, the long-buried records related to the collapse began to emerge.

“Primitive Runes!” At one point, Jiang Chengxuan rose from his seat, his eyes sharp and his voice ringing out.

“I see now!

I see it clearly!” Through their continued search and piecing together of information, the full picture of the collapse was finally revealed to Jiang Chengxuan!

It turned out that within every Immortal Domain, there existed primitive runes that were born alongside the heavens and earth.

These runes maintained the stability of the entire Immortal Domain and were intimately tied to it.

If disturbed, they would trigger a terrifying collapse.

But such collapses should normally restore themselves, for the primitive runes were incredibly stable and had a powerful restorative ability.

However, this time, the collapse didn’t restore itself; instead, it was utterly devastating.

Without a doubt, some malevolent force had tampered with the primitive runes, causing this catastrophe.

“In this case, as long as we find the primitive runes and eliminate the influence of the malevolent forceaEUR|” Jiang Chengxuan’s eyes gleamed with confidence as he spoke, “We can suppress this great calamity!” Upon hearing this, Shen Ruoyan nodded in agreement.

Once they found the cause, the collapse of the Immortal Domain would no longer be a mystery, and there would be a way to resolve this hopeless calamity.

Jiang Chengxuan’s previous power had been ineffective because he had no target to fight.

But now that the primitive runes were revealed, the situation was completely different.

No matter what influence the malevolent force had on the primitive runes, Jiang Chengxuan was confident he could counter it.

He trusted his strength was no less than that of the eerie, ominous black darkness!

“The primitive runes will only exist within the Immortal Domain.

They live and die with the Immortal Domain and will not fall into oblivion.” Jiang Chengxuan organized the information he had gathered, slowly formulating a plan in his mind.

“The primitive runes are elusive, almost impossible to find, but since the malevolent darkness has affected them, we can track the source of the malevolent force to find them.” “The collapse is still ongoing, and the situation is dire.

I must act immediately!” After organizing all the clues, Jiang Chengxuan felt certain.

His plan had taken shape.

“Chengxuan, you’ve finally come out!

There are some problems outside!” As Jiang Chengxuan exited the hall, the waiting Yuanhan Immortal quickly reported the news of the growing unrest.
