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

Chapter 1310: Two Immortals Join Forces, A Grand Assembly (Part 1)

After a contentious meeting and a fierce battle, Jiang Chengxuan made an unexpected move—he decided to recruit Yuanhan Immortal into his ranks.

His proposal sent shockwaves through the crowd. Countless cultivators from South State stood speechless, their faces frozen in disbelief. The idea that Jiang Chengxuan, after crossing swords with Yuanhan Immortal, not only harbored no ill will but actually admired and sought to recruit him, was unfathomable to many.

Most cultivators, after discovering the strength of their opponent, would try to eliminate the threat, ensuring they wouldn’t face future consequences. Yet Jiang Chengxuan had done the opposite—recognizing Yuanhan Immortal’s talents and offering him a path of cooperation.

This move, while initially startling, quickly made sense to those watching. The more they pondered Jiang Chengxuan’s actions, the more brilliant it seemed. From the moment Jiang Chengxuan had entered the fray, he had demonstrated not only formidable strength but also a rare magnanimity and wisdom. His open-mindedness and calm composure distinguished him, even among the ranks of Earth Immortal-level cultivators, making him a figure of great charisma.

Given the circumstances, the proposal to recruit Yuanhan Immortal didn’t seem entirely outlandish. Jiang Chengxuan had clearly outmatched him in both combat and strategy, giving Yuanhan Immortal little reason to refuse.

All eyes turned to Yuanhan Immortal, waiting for his response.

Caught off guard by Jiang Chengxuan’s offer, Yuanhan Immortal stood in silence, unable to respond immediately. His gaze locked with Jiang Chengxuan’s across the void, communicating in a way that words could not. For centuries, Yuanhan Immortal had spurned offers from sects and powers, finding them beneath him, especially after the disgraceful dealings with Xuan Yuan Immortal Sect. He had refused to associate with anyone after that, carving out a life as a lone wanderer. But the situation was different now.

Although he had slaughtered the high-ranking members of Xuan Yuan Immortal Sect, he was still labeled a traitor, a pariah among the greater powers of the immortal world. His status as a rogue cultivator had barred him from joining any influential sects or groups. Yet, Jiang Chengxuan’s offer was different—it wasn’t tainted with manipulation or deception. And Yuanhan Immortal had to admit, Jiang Chengxuan had bested him in battle and had shown remarkable potential.

After a long pause, Yuanhan Immortal finally broke the silence with a cautious question.

“Can you truly heal my injuries?”

Jiang Chengxuan’s eyes lit up with a glimmer of satisfaction as he nodded confidently.

“I happen to have another identity. I am also an immortal alchemist, with a deep understanding of healing arts.”

With these words, Jiang Chengxuan knew he had taken a significant step toward securing Yuanhan Immortal’s allegiance. The murmurs among the surrounding cultivators confirmed their amazement. This deal could reshape the very landscape of the immortal world.

The revelation that Jiang Chengxuan was not only a powerful cultivator but also a skilled alchemist shook even the Earth Immortal cultivators present. Such dual talents were incredibly rare. If Yuanhan Immortal agreed to this offer, it would be a monumental alliance, with both of their combined talents marking the potential rise of a formidable new force.

“Very well!” Yuanhan Immortal declared, his voice steady and resolute. “If you can truly heal my wounds, I will join your cause.”

The crowd stirred with anticipation. Yuanhan Immortal had long sought a cure for the injuries that had plagued him for millennia. Though the potential benefits of following Jiang Chengxuan were clear, the chance to heal his injuries was what ultimately swayed his decision.

Jiang Chengxuan grinned widely, his laughter booming across the void. “Rest assured, I stand by my word. If I fail to heal your injuries, the deal is off, and you are free to leave.”

With these words, Jiang Chengxuan offered a guarantee, solidifying their pact. Yuanhan Immortal nodded in agreement, and in that moment, a profound oath was made, sealed by the will of the Dao itself.

The pact between the two immortals stunned the crowd into silence. Witnessing the recruitment of an Earth Immortal was a once-in-a-lifetime event. In the immortal realm, those who ascended to Earth Immortal status stood at the pinnacle of power, often becoming the leaders of major sects and forces. There were few, if any, instances where such individuals were recruited by others.

Most Earth Immortals were nurtured by sects from a young age, with vast resources and opportunities at their disposal. Such figures, like Jiang Chengxuan and Yuanhan Immortal, who had risen from obscurity as rogue cultivators, were incredibly rare.

Now, with Yuanhan Immortal agreeing to join Jiang Chengxuan’s cause, an unprecedented alliance had been formed.
