Bombarding Cultivators with Cluster Artillery

”A senior who is proficient in the Great Sun Swordsmanship?”

”Don’t say things that could be misunderstood. If I knew such a person, I would have turned him in already,”

Jiang Ding said helplessly.

”Haha, just kidding,”

Wu Mengsha chuckled heartily, glanced at the things in the sea of consciousness, then looked at the youth in blue clothes in front of her, and couldn’t help saying, ”But you’re so young, only in your forties. I find it a bit hard to believe.”

”Many Xianmen cultivators at this age are still accumulating the most basic scientific research foundations.”

”Maybe the Great Sun Swordsmanship is somewhat special,”

Jiang Ding glossed over the topic and continued, ”I’ve also practiced the ’Great Lustrous Sun Sword Technique.’ I can perform it normally, but the speed is not satisfactory due to electromagnetic mana not matching.

Look, in the 157th meridian group of the Sanjiao Channel of Hand Shaoyang, mana can’t be reversed when flowing here. It must pass through at top speed, otherwise, it will result in going berserk.”

”Indeed, we overlooked this before. Even our mentor didn’t see it during the review,”

Wu Mengsha and others had been calculating for a long time before they had a sudden epiphany.

They looked at the young man in front of them with wonderment. He was younger than even their grandnieces and grandnephews.

”And the 897th meridian group in the Lung Channel of Hand Taiyin...”

Jiang Ding continued to share his understanding of the ’Great Lustrous Sun Sword Technique.’ There were some integrations and modifications he couldn’t immediately judge, but with his keen Sword Dao intuition, he often provided one or multiple possible research directions.

It was no exaggeration to say that his research efficiency was tens of times faster than others.’

”Awesome!”

”For Great Sun Swordsmanship research, it still has to be the Dari Swordsman who does it. It’s like a natural instinct!”

Wu Mengsha and the other senior juniors were extremely excited. Joining the heated debate midway, they even pulled in Zhang Junsheng, who was conducting research elsewhere. Ideas appeared and were dismissed one after another.

Time flew by unnoticed, and three months passed.

Countless ideas appeared and were dismissed.

These Post-golden Alchemist senior juniors still looked as energetic as ever.

Sister-in-law Wu Mengsha, with her two dark circles under her eyes, remained unchanged, and the remote connection with the skinny old man, Zhang Junsheng, showed no difference either.

”Everyone, let’s stop here.”

”This is all I have, no more. I need to rest for a while,”

Jiang Ding said, expressing his last idea with exhaustion.

Continuously working non-stop on a task for more than ninety days, for the first time in his life, and it was an extremely mentally exhausting Great Sun Swordsmanship research discussion. He was now close to collapse.

”No more?”

Wu Mengsha and others, who were in the midst of an animated discussion, were disappointed. After a moment, they realized, ”You’re at the Foundation Establishment Stage. You should rest.”

”Yes, yes.”

”See you senior juniors!”

Jiang Ding turned into a grey-blue Escaping Light and ran off into the distance without looking back.

...

Back at the mining area dormitory, he dropped the Taiqing Flying Sword that had grown into a blue-gold large tree. The rustling sound of the wind through the leaves surrounded him as Great Sun Essence and Heavenly Earth Spiritual Qi gathered warmly and comfortably.

Jiang Ding immediately fell asleep.

It took three days before he slowly woke up.

”These senior juniors are too crazy,”

Jiang Ding rubbed his bleary eyes.

Continuously outputting inspiration about Great Sun Swordsmanship for three months was extremely exhausting, no less than going through a life-and-death battle at the same level.

He didn’t know how Wu Mengsha and others had managed to do it day after day for so many years.

Divine Consciousness Scanned over and there was a new express delivery in front of him—a silver-white metallic box that looked very sturdy and valuable, with the Divine Sense sign-off mark he had left on it.

”I received this?”

Jiang Ding was startled. He searched his Divine Soul for a moment and then remembered.

An Elite Kingfisher flew over from afar, chirping about something. The person sleeping under the tree snored thunderously with no reaction whatsoever.

A moment later,

a branch grew out from the blue-gold large tree and left a mark on the metal box beneath its talons.

The Elite Kingfisher was satisfied, set down the metal box, and flew away.

He took out his phone.

”Ding!”

”Weaver’s Robes Co., Ltd.: Your custom Superior Quality Magical Tool Electromagnetic Hidden Spirit Robe ordered seven years ago has been fully refined and is being sent to Xiandu Distribution Center...”

”You have signed for it, and the transaction is complete.”

”Welcome to shop again with Weaver’s Robes Co., Ltd. With a history of nearly ten thousand years, endorsed by Patriarch Panda Huailingling, we guarantee reliable quality and credibility...”

”The robe has been refined.”

Jiang Ding was invigorated and brought the express package over, infusing it with his mana and Divine Sense to unlock.

Click!

A silver-white box, seamlessly integrated, opened with a small gap and unfolded to both sides, revealing a neatly folded, semi-transparent robe the size of a palm inside.

Woven from very fine Third-Order Electromagnetic Spirit Bamboo fibers, each finer than a strand of hair, each fiber inscribed with dense runes. An interwoven mass of fibers formed intricate complex arrays interlaced within the robe’s fabric.

Occasionally, a faint blue spark of electricity flickered across the garment, hinting at tremendous power that would make Foundation-building cultivators shudder with fear.

The robe was clearly here,

but when scanned by Divine Sense, it revealed only the empty silver-white metal box, with nothing else detected.

”The exterior passes muster.”

Jiang Ding was somewhat pleased as he picked up the Electromagnetic Stealth Robe, allowing his Divine Sense and mana to flow into it.

In an instant,

it was as if he’d entered a maze of networked arrays, immensely expansive and intricate. As his Divine Sense and mana moved through them, he nearly lost himself, seemingly unable to escape, at risk of becoming a living dead.

Fortunately, after a moment, Spiritual Light flashed, guiding his Divine Sense and mana to specific core locations. The Array Patterns elsewhere dimmed and were sealed away, with only a few seamlessly integrated patterns still capable of independent operation.

He left his Divine Sense and imprints in one corner of the artifact’s core.

A feeling of close connection emerged.

Jiang Ding immediately felt much more familiar with the Superior Quality Magical Tool Electromagnetic Hidden Spirit Robe, and closed his eyes to sense it.

”Ninety-nine percent of the bamboo fiber is inscribed with Top-Tier 3rd Order Electromagnetic Light Wave Stealth Formation, and the Top-Tier 3rd Order Magnetic Field Spirit Energy Ejection Formation.”

”The remaining less than one percent of the bamboo fiber is inscribed with the First-order Supreme Wishful Sizing Formation and Second-Order Supreme Restoration Formation, which makes it easier to repair if damaged.”

”Most of the Top-Tier 3rd Order formations are sealed, leaving barely the strength of a Third Stage Lower Quality, which even Foundation Establishment cultivators can use.”

”Let’s give it a try.”

Jiang Ding took off the Premium Special Magic Tool Reconnaissance-1 Camouflage he’d been wearing for decades without change, and stark naked, he poured mana into the newly refined Electromagnetic Stealth Robe.

A flash of electricity.

The palm-sized robe expanded and draped over his body, fitting him perfectly without being too large or too small.

He executed a Mana Technique, and a ten-meter tall and wide water mirror appeared in front of him.

In the mirror, a youth in blue clothes looked on, indistinguishable from any other day.

”Top-Tier 3rd Order Electromagnetic Light Wave Stealth Formation, with most of its power sealed, barely at the level of Third Stage Lower Quality.”

Jiang Ding activated his nearly perfected Second-Stage Top Class ”Electromagnetic Light Wave Stealth Technique.”

He immediately felt a huge difference.

It was activated with great ease, and his capability leapfrogged from nearly mastered to fully complete. In the mirror, the youth in blue clothes vanished instantly, remaining undetectable even if scanned closely by a Late Golden Core cultivator’s Divine Sense.

”The concealment ability has improved by two levels, and my ’Electromagnetic Light Wave Stealth Technique’ was already on the verge of breaking through to the next stage, which should further enhance the concealment when that happens.”

Jiang Ding felt somewhat more secure in his heart.

He then focused his attention on another array within the robe, the Third-order Magnetic Field Spirit Energy Ejecting Formation, derived from the Magnetic Field Spirit Power Gathering Formation, but designed to propel oneself forward like a projectile, effectively increasing speed.

”This will require complete refinement before it can be used, but once ready, my speed should double at the least, significantly boosting my maneuverability.”

”The six Teleportation Formations are also due to arrive in the next few days.”

Jiang Ding mused to himself: ”Once everything is set up around here, it should be a bit safer, right?”
