Chapter 1717: Poisonous Insects and Monster Hands 2

With both hands and feet, Jiang Chengxuan struck fiercely, breaking through the poisonous disaster with holy light, directly smashing it onto the insect’s body.

A poisonous spider that was charging at him was kicked in the abdomen by Jiang Chengxuan with precision, and the powerful force caused its massive body to fly high into the air.

Immediately after, Jiang Chengxuan, with a hand glowing with golden light, grabbed its head, spun his body, and threw it toward another approaching poisonous insect.

Bang! Bang! The two poisonous insects collided heavily, causing a large burst of poisonous liquid to explode.

In this way, Jiang Chengxuan demonstrated his extraordinary combat abilities, swinging the Taichu Hongmeng Sword in one hand while dealing with the creatures using his fists and legs, slaughtering them wildly.

Roar!

At this moment, the massive poisonous beasts, blocking the sky and obscuring the sun, also arrived, roaring and attacking from behind to surround Jiang Chengxuan.

However, Jiang Chengxuan had long been prepared. Behind him, the mystic realm manifested numerous strange phenomena. His eyes sharpened, and a terrifyingly powerful treasure was summoned to suppress the heavens and earth!

This was the Golden Immortal Scroll! The scroll, formed by intertwining cyan and pale white colors, slowly unfurled, releasing an immense aura and power that descended upon this world.

Even the poison disaster was no match for the power of the Golden Immortal level, which was overwhelming. A burst of nine-colored immortal light erupted as the Golden Immortal Scroll revealed just an inch of its true form.

The destructive tidal waves of energy poured out, instantly clearing the surrounding poisonous fog, leaving an empty void!

Boom! Boom!

A deafening roar erupted as the Golden Immortal Scroll opened a mystic gate. Terrifying power ravaged the entire world.

Both the enormous poisonous beasts and the dense swarm of poisonous spiders were instantly consumed by the destructive celestial light. There was no time for their roars or cries before they vanished without a trace.

Huff–!

Exhaling a breath of foul air, Jiang Chengxuan retracted the Golden Immortal Scroll in an instant, preventing it from unleashing further devastation.

Once the scorching celestial light dissipated, the space around him was empty, leaving only a chaotic void, where storms raged.

The power of the Golden Immortal was terrifying. Even for just a moment, it was enough to annihilate these poisonous beasts and insects, leaving no trace behind. They couldn’t regenerate.

Jiang Chengxuan had endured this long only to wait for these poisonous creatures to cluster together, so that he could strike with full force, wiping them out with minimal cost.

At this point, there was no doubt he had succeeded.

“Continue in this direction…”

Without lingering, Jiang Chengxuan’s eyes sharpened, and he chose the direction he had previously sensed, transforming into a streak of light and disappearing into the void.

Based on his earlier deduction, he had a faint feeling that the polluted original rune might be nearby.

After completely annihilating the poisonous insects and beasts with the Golden Immortal treasure, Jiang Chengxuan felt that the heavens and earth had opened up, and he could now move freely through the entire poisonous disaster realm.

Soon enough, his intuition proved correct. After a brief search, he indeed arrived at a place with a highly concentrated aura of destruction, where a faint mystical light emanated in the void.

This was undoubtedly an ancient and mysterious original rune, radiating the essence of origin, surrounded by numerous strange phenomena. However, upon inspecting the patterns, Jiang Chengxuan could see that there were constant wriggling scorch marks on it, as if maggots were eating into the rune, signifying that it had already been polluted by the ominous dark force.

“As expected, it’s here!”

Upon seeing this, Jiang Chengxuan’s heart surged with excitement, and his eyes gleamed with intensity.

Every moment in this place was filled with the oppressive force of the poison disaster, and within the mystic immortal domain, the collapsing tribulations were constantly unfolding. He had to act quickly, finishing the task as swiftly as possible–after all, this was only the second original rune!

“Taichu Hongmeng Sword, Nine Mysterious Bodhi Lotus Lamp, Sacrifice!”

Without hesitation, Jiang Chengxuan summoned both treasures at once. Their tremendous power erupted, revealing the full force of his mid-level Mystical Immortal realm!

Having learned from previous encounters, he knew the terrifying power of the original rune and knew that he must give his all to deal with it. In an instant, his gaze turned cold as he transformed into a streak of light and struck!

The Taichu Hongmeng energy condensed into a pillar, resembling a falling meteor in the void, heading straight for the original rune. In the blink of an eye, Jiang Chengxuan, with terrifying energy, rushed toward it, already within striking range.

Boom!

At that exact moment, the original rune exploded with an astonishing power. A force that seemed to belong to the very Dao of the universe circulated, and the entire world was drawn into it, instantly creating a massive vortex.

Countless massive poisonous mists surged, covering the area from all sides. They formed into a giant mountain-like peak, charging toward Jiang Chengxuan.

The heavens and earth trembled as the two forces collided, unleashing an ear-splitting roar!

The swirling vortex almost shattered the space itself, and the terrifying force clashed with Jiang Chengxuan in fierce combat.

At this moment, the Nine Mysterious Bodhi Lotus Lamp demonstrated its power. Like an illusory lotus, it bloomed in the void. At its center, an ancient Bodhi tree swayed, releasing pure, unrivaled celestial power.

The massive celestial energy flooded into Jiang Chengxuan’s celestial body, and combined with the power of the mystic realm, it felt as though he now wielded two mystic realms. His aura soared!

Boom! Boom!

In the next moment, dazzling purple-gold light illuminated the world. The poisonous mist peak, which had condensed from the miasma, was instantly shattered by Jiang Chengxuan’s attack. It exploded into a massive storm that swept across the heavens and earth.

In the midst of this, Jiang Chengxuan protected himself with the mystic realm. His Taichu Hongmeng Sword twirled, creating a sword dance. Fresh power was restored, and he transformed into a beam of light, piercing through the chaotic aftermath, and continued to slash at the polluted original rune!

The shattered space repeatedly brushed past Jiang Chengxuan’s side, but he continued forward, ignoring it. His gaze remained fixed on the rune, surrounded by its ever-radiating immortal light!

But things would not be so simple. Just as Jiang Chengxuan broke through the poisonous mist peak, the original rune trembled, sending out ripples of destructive energy.

In a sudden burst, immense destructive forces erupted from the rune’s patterns, first rising into the sky and then descending into the poisonous swamp below!

This scene left Jiang Chengxuan startled, but his resolve remained unshaken. He continued to push through the storm, unwavering!

Boom!

In that moment, a completely different golden light suddenly exploded from the decayed swamp below, shooting toward Jiang Chengxuan.

This power was incredibly holy, entirely different from the destructive aura of the poison disaster. Jiang Chengxuan’s heart shook, as he sensed a familiar presence.

A scorching heavenly light surged from the ground, breaking through the sky, carrying overwhelming power, and tearing the space apart wherever it passed.

At this point, Jiang Chengxuan had no choice but to evade its edge. His body arced through the void, barely dodging the brilliant beam.

The violent light illuminated the heavens, but it did not warm Jiang Chengxuan’s heart, for it was connected to the original rune.

Gradually, the blinding heavenly light faded. Jiang Chengxuan then saw a strange object towering between him and the polluted original rune.

It was an incredibly bizarre giant hand, pale and slender, reaching into the sky. It resembled a white dragon but was even more mysterious and eerie.

What was even stranger was that this monstrous hand originated from the poisonous swamp but radiated a holy aura. It was also wrapped in the poison disaster, with countless poisonous marks growing on it, blending two contradictory forces into one.

“Such a familiar aura, could it be…?”

Standing in the void, Jiang Chengxuan’s eyes widened. He muttered, his voice solemn.

From that monstrous hand, he not only felt overwhelming power but also a familiar sensation. It was as if this was one of the powers he himself had mastered.
