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

“The second door opens for elders and higher-ups of the sect, requiring contribution points to enter. Would you like to open it?” Before Jiang Chengxuan could ask, the voice of the guarding elder came through the void.

“Of course.”

Jiang Chengxuan replied.

He was not short on contribution points now.

And merely the resources on the first level were insufficient to meet his needs for breaking through to the Dao Mastery.

As he spoke, Jiang Chengxuan felt a large array within the entire treasure vault begin to operate.

Layers of restrictions were unlocked, revealing a portal at the far end, like parting clouds.

However, Jiang Chengxuan didn’t rush over. Instead, he selected the resources he needed from the first level according to his needs.

Some time later, he continued forward at a leisurely pace and stepped into the door of the second level.

Buzz.

Crossing another boundary, Jiang Chengxuan entered a new section of the treasure vault.

Here, compared to the lower level, the elemental spirit energy was significantly denser, making it a veritable blessed land.

Yet, it was merely used for storage, showcasing the Haoran Sect’s immense wealth.

The treasures on this level were about eighty percent less than on the first layer.

However, everything here was only available to elders and above.

These were treasures accumulated by the Haoran Sect over the years, with even the least valuable of them useful for Dao Integration cultivators.

In fact, in the center of the pile of treasures, Jiang Chengxuan even saw the existence of immortal medicine, although it was only an incomplete part.

Nonetheless, it was still astonishing.

From Dao Integration Saints to Mahayana Daolords, anyone could find something valuable here, making a visit worthwhile.

Without further ado, Jiang Chengxuan began his meticulous selection process.

In this level, he saw many familiar items, such as high-grade demonic pills, treasures from the deepsea nomads, and secret medicines from the eldars…

These were resources distributed to the Haoran Sect after the war, during the merit distribution meeting.

Before the war, such items were rare in the treasure vault, as they were unique to foreign worlds.

Quickly, half a day passed in a flash.

It was not until dusk that Jiang Chengxuan emerged from the grand doors of the treasure vault.

The figures of the two guarding elders also promptly appeared outside.

Jiang Chengxuan, satisfied, handed the storage artifact used to store treasures to the elders to deduct the corresponding contribution points.

The two elders counted seriously and could not help but click their tongues.

“These resources total eighty-eight million contribution points.”

“Okay.”

Once the elders finished tallying, Jiang Chengxuan handed over his sect token without hesitation.

The elders then deducted the contribution points from the token and returned the storage artifact to him.

By then, his visit to the treasure vault had officially ended.

The expenditure of contribution points did not surprise Jiang Chengxuan, even though it might be an astronomical sum others could not accumulate in a lifetime.

When selecting these resources, Jiang Chengxuan chose only the best quality, sparing no expense.

Moreover, there were actually many exchanged resources that were not prepared for the breakthrough of the Dao Mastery.

As his cultivation arts had improved greatly. Jiang Chengxuan’s need for resources also undoubtedly increased.

This time, his exchange was predominantly for alchemical and artifact crafting refining, a preparation for unforeseen needs.

After all, his next emergence from seclusion would not be until a century later. Who could predict the circumstances then?

It was not a bad thing to prepare more. Moreover, he was carrying a huge sum of money now.

With a heart light and spirits high, Jiang Chengxuan left the treasure vault of the Haoran Sect, pausing momentarily before deciding to visit his Shifu, Qin Shenwu.

After that war, the two of them had not seen each other for more than a century.

He circulated his Dharmic power and transformed into a five-colored streak of light that flew towards the Shenwu Peak where Qin Shenwu was.

Along the way, many people were surprised to see this terrifying aura. Then, they realized that Vice Sect Master Jiang Chengxuan had come out of seclusion.

Unexpectedly, his strength had already reached this realm, making the others blush with shame.

It had to be known that Jiang Chengxuan had not been in the Haoran Sect for long. He could be said to be the youngest elder.

But now, his strength was already close to Sect Master Xue Ping’s level, marking him as one of the few dominant figures in the Haoran Sect.

His might was unmatched in the Floodgate Realm, a monstrous talent capable of overpowering all other sects.

Unaware of the awe he inspired, Jiang Chengxuan soon arrived at the grand hall of Xuanwu Peak, where the familiar figure of Qin Shenwu awaited, seemingly expecting his arrival.

Approaching the towering figure, Jiang Chengxuan bowed respectfully,

“Shifu, my seclusion has ended, and I’ve come to see you.”

Qin Shenwu turned, his face breaking into a warm smile upon seeing his most proud disciple,

“Ha, Chengxuan, your gains from a century of seclusion seem quite substantial. Good! Very good!”

In front of Jiang Chengxuan, Qin Shenwu cast aside the demeanor of a grand Daolord, praising him warmly.

“Indeed, Shifu, I’ve made some gains,” Jiang Chengxuan replied, not overly modest, his smile genuine.

Their conversation then turned to the years passed, discussing the dynamics of the Floodgate Realm.

Qin Shenwu, without reservations, shared everything, painting a clear picture of the recent events.

The realms of Tianyao, Changhai, and Tianling, after their defeat, had been harassed by the Floodgate Realm until they were forced to seal their realm barrier.

It was equivalent to cutting off the possibility of ascension to immortality to prevent the revenge by the Celestial Floodgate Realm.

The Abyssal Realm, too, had ceased its encroachment on the New World, letting the passageway from the demonic abyss to the New World be sealed with heavy restrictions.

On the front of the New World, the Haoran Sect had developed a significant area, with Leng Yuehua managing the resources.

This continuous influx elevated the living standards of the sect’s disciples.

Under such influences, the number of cultivators joining the Haoran Sect had been increasing year by year.

With the Haoran Sect’s wealth and power, they welcomed all who met their criteria, their influence growing to a point where calling them an overlord sect was no overstatement.

After a day and night of casual talk, Jiang Chengxuan revealed his true purpose,

“Shifu, my emergence from seclusion was to exchange for resources needed for breakthroughs. I’ve decided to go into consecutive seclusion to break through the Dao Mastery.”

Without holding back, Jiang Chengxuan shared his plans for breakthrough, laying bare his ambitions to his Shifu, Qin Shenwu.
