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

Editor: Henyee Translations

As Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan continued deeper into the cave, Jiang Chengxuan’s intuition sensed no significant threats.

They reached an ancient stone corridor when suddenly, a wave of fluctuations arose, and a burst of dazzling light quickly approached from afar.

It was a barrage of elemental arrows, interwoven with the forces of thunder, fire, wind, and water, covering the sky and sealing off all directions in front of Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan.

At the same time, a roaring sound erupted behind them, and the ground began to tremble violently.

An ancient furnace, emitting a pale yellow hue and embodying the weight of mountains with its inscribed rules, rolled towards them, blocking the entire passage.

At this moment, with elemental arrows in front and the giant furnace pressing from behind, the situation was overwhelmingly oppressive.

Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan exchanged a glance, perfectly in sync, and charged forward and backward, respectively.

Jiang Chengxuan summoned the Five Elements Diagram, which shimmered briefly before transforming into a massive halberd, directly facing the mountain-like pressure of the furnace.

Shen Ruyan wielded the Five Lightning Immortal Slayer, with a backdrop of five-colored divine thunder as she stepped into the sky and charged towards the millions of raining arrows.

The halberd, manifesting a vast expanse of starry sky, swept through the void in Jiang Chengxuan’s hands, powerfully striking the ancient furnace.

Buzz, buzz, buzz!

The enormous force struck the furnace like a bell, causing a continuous echo and ripples in the void, reverberating throughout the ancient cave.

However, compared to Jiang Chengxuan’s current power, the ancient furnace seemed somewhat insufficient. With a thunderous crash, the surface of the furnace dented significantly.

Subsequently, large cracks spread across the furnace’s surface, forming a dense web.

Rumble!

In the next instant, under the oppressive force of the halberd, the ancient furnace burst apart, turning into a shower of fragments.

Simultaneously, Shen Ruyan’s Five Lightning Immortal Slayer tore through the void, instantly raising a terrifying tide of five-colored lightning. The chaotic forces within the arrows were utterly suppressed, unable to stir up any disturbance.

The terrifying power of the lightning instantly extinguished all the arrows, causing a series of explosions in the cave that echoed continuously.

These two traps, reaching the Dao Mastery level, seemed nothing to Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan, easily suppressed with a single move.

For an ordinary cultivator, the continuous traps and arrays here would pose a significant danger.

By now, the duo had traversed a considerable distance within the cave, encountering dozens of traps and arrays. Although none were as formidable as the Seven Kills Array, being merely within the realm of Dao Mastery, their sheer number was particularly taxing on patience. 𝘙âꞐ𝐎ＢΕṩ

Regardless, these mechanisms could not deter Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan, who maintained their composure and chose to continue forward.

This time, their path was much quieter. They walked a long distance without encountering any more mechanisms.

That was until they reached a certain point where bright light suddenly flashed before them, and an ancient stone wall blocked their path.

The wall was filled with ancient runes that neither Jiang nor Shen could comprehend, presenting a puzzle-like challenge that needed to be solved to advance.

Jiang surmised that this ancient stone wall might be the final mechanism here. But with the runes inscribed upon it undecipherable, how were they to solve this riddle?

“Let’s try using Heavenly Calculation Technique to decipher it.”

Jiang pondered for a moment, then stepped forward and memorized all the runes. Immediately, he activated Heavenly Calculation Technique, and the ancient characters vibrantly came to life within his mind.

Though still cryptic, the power of Heavenly Calculation Technique allowed him to deduce the connections between the runes, thus enabling him to arrange them in order and solve the puzzle.

Despite the abundance of runes on the ancient stone wall, under the operation of Jiang Chengxuan’s Heavenly Calculation Technique, their original form soon became apparent.

Jiang slowly moved forward, linking all the ancient runes according to the results of the Heavenly Calculation Technique. Subsequently, waves of energy burst forth, and each rune lit up like torches.

Under the illumination of these runes, a bright path appeared before Jiang and Shen, and the original stone wall vanished into thin air.

Without any hesitation, they stepped into the light. Following another spatial fluctuation, they found themselves in a secret chamber.

Upon entering, the atmosphere changed dramatically, and a profoundly ancient and vast power hit them, instantly tensing their spirits.

Before Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan stood two ancient stone doors, one black and one white, from which the immense power emanated.

Jiang felt a familiar sensation emanating from the doors, carrying an essence of the cycle of life and death. The momentary contact sent a chilling sensation through his entire body, a sensation both eerie and profound.

He turned to look at Shen Ruyan, noticing that she too appeared somewhat shaken, clearly having sensed something from the black and white doors as well.

“Husband, it seems these doors contain the power of the cycle of life and death,” Shen Ruyan said softly as she approached Jiang Chengxuan.

“Yes, I feel the same,” Jiang confirmed her observation.

After discussing briefly, they decided to continue their exploration, stepping closer to the mysterious doors.

Suddenly, a more formidable aura emanated from them. Meanwhile, back in the outside world, a massive rune hidden beneath this secluded area suddenly lit up. However, the duo inside the cave remained unaware of this external change.

As Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan approached the doors, they found that the aura grew increasingly powerful, yet no other changes occurred. This puzzling lack of further action left them bewildered.

Just then, a long-forgotten system notification sound rang in Jiang Chengxuan’s mind.

Ding!

[Host is required to complete the mission: Achieve one thousand deductions.]

This unexpected prompt made Jiang pause momentarily in surprise.

Could this be a hint from the system? After all, the system had been silent throughout their journey, only to issue a mission at this particular moment.

Familiar with the system, Jiang Chengxuan suspected this was a clue from the system to help unravel the puzzle before them.
