Bombarding Cultivators with Cluster Artillery

Centered around Jiang Ding,

Xianmen Sect’s Foundation-building cultivators fled in all directions.

Unstoppable, their morale completely eroded.

”Great Sun Swordsman!”

Lurking in the shadows, Xuanwu Substitute Daoist Li Han’s eyes flashed coldly as she spoke icily, ”Xu’s intelligence was actually true; the Eastern Devil School really did seize the legacy of Great Sun Sword Pavilion and cultivated a new Great Sun Swordsman. Even if he is not as formidable as the Swordsmen during the heyday of the Great Sun Sword Pavilion, he is not far behind...”

”He is surely a major threat to the Heavenly Palace!”

She did not use Spirit Soul Restrictions to stop her subordinates from fleeing, allowing them to collapse and escape in every direction.

Not only that, she also issued an order for thirteen True Disciples lurking further away to withdraw.

If it had only been one Great Sun Swordsman, she would surely have ordered a mass attack with her army!

But now that the opposing army was even stronger, she naturally needed to reconsider her plan.

She also began to retreat slowly.

The situation on the battlefield was changing once again.

”Oh?”

Jiang Ding keenly noticed this development; the fleeing Foundation-building cultivators from Xuanwu tiangong were being slain by him. Gray-blue sword-shaped Escape Light darted across the battlefield, and any enemy he encountered was withdrawing to the exterior.

He could chase and defeat enemies in one direction, gaining significant results, but he could not annihilate them completely.

Moreover, he would not stray too far from the main force, so the results he could achieve might not be that substantial.

”Call in the artillery barrage; the enemy targets are between ten to twenty-five kilometers from my Group Army.”

He gave the order.

”Yes, General Commander sir!”

Jin Lingfeng responded solemnly.

”Shell fire, fire!”

Over two hundred thousand tank barrels lifted ever so slightly, each division’s angles of fire differing slightly, and then they fired simultaneously amid ear-shattering roars.

Gunsmoke billowed into a mist within dozens of kilometers, an extremely magnificent sight.

Whiz whiz whiz!

Lines of white streaked across the sky; the sounds of cleaving air were dense and incessant, almost covering the entire sky, leaving no gaps.

Then, numerous black dots exploded at heights several tens of meters above the ground, with Law-Breaking Steel Fragments scattering in all directions.

Boom!

Boom! Boom!

A ground-shaking bombardment erupted next to this deserted plain. The area from ten to twenty-five kilometers away from the Group Army was plowed over and over by the shelling, dust flying, ground undulating, practically turning into a boiling pot of soup.

”Fire!”

”Fire!”

”...”

Yet, Jin Lingfeng still refused to order a halt to the barrage.

After ten consecutive volleys, which exploded even closer to the ground, the already boiling West Desert was further ignited to ensure that not a patch of intact earth remained within the range of the bombardment.

The Law-Breaking Steel Fragments from the shell fires were dense and unrelenting, leaving no crevices, indifferent to friend or foe, bombing every corner.

”Damn Demon School bandits!”

”Break out!”

In this carpet bombing, the very places which had seemed empty broke apart, and tiny points of spiritual light were revealed.

The silently fleeing Foundation-building cultivators of Xuanwu tiangong had no choice but to reveal their forms, with no space left to hide.

The Law-Breaking Steel Fragments could wear down their shields but could not kill them!

”Kill!”

The Foundation-building cultivators from Xuanwu tiangong roared in fury, casting hordes of Evil Spirits and zombies. Concealed by these zombies, they unleashed all their mana in a desperate attempt to flee far away.

”Armor Piercing Bullets!”

Jin Lingfeng shouted loudly.

In fact, without her prompt, as soon as the Foundation-building cultivators revealed themselves, the luxuriously frightening commanders of the battalion, each at least a Second-order War Commander, immediately took action.

Based on the artillery divisions among the legion, armored command vehicles with built-in Second-order Spirit Particle Sonar locked on to the targets, with tank battalions firing one after another.

Whiz, whiz whiz!

Dense clusters of armor-piercing bullets tore across the sky, with magic glyphs flickering, and First-order spell-breaking magic added. Coupled with the inherent power of tank armor-piercing rounds and precision guidance.

They exploded against the bodies of Foundation-building cultivators frantically attempting to escape.

Every Xuanwu tiangong Foundation-building cultivator was targeted by at least three tank battalions!

Boom!

Boom Boom!

The Supreme Magic Tool shields were blown open by thirty-six armor-piercing bullets enhanced with spell-breaking magic, their spiritual light dimming as they fell, were thrown aside, and then another thirty-six armor-piercing bullets exploded against the desperate faces of mid-stage Foundation Building Cultivators, shattering their magical shields, and spraying flesh and blood.

”Continue the bombardment!”

”This feels so easy!”

Jin Lingfeng, operating a tank cannon to kill several late Foundation Establishment Cultivators, excitedly said, ”The Great Sun Swordsmen and Immortal Sect Army really work well together. There’s no need to be concerned with defense, just keep bombarding.”

The Immortal Sect Army was actually quite extreme.

Strong offense, weak defense, madly stacking surveillance-type Immortal Technique technology, and even developed surveillance pseudo-Immortal Techniques that could only be deployed with the Central Array Spirit Computer, all for the sake of detecting the enemy faster and eliminating them before they could get close.

”We still need to pay attention to basic defense,”

An Siyan, the commander of the second Group Army, reminded.

”I know, I know.”

Whoosh Whoosh Whoosh!

Armor-piercing bullets flew across the sky, blotting out the sun, showing no moment of respite, mercilessly bombarding every Foundation-building Cultivator exposed within the range of the Spirit Particle Sonar.

Occasionally, Cultivators at the peak of Foundation Building managed to withstand more than a dozen battalion-level bombardments, but they would immediately be surrounded by several tank groups, and amid the wailing of Supreme Magic Tools, turned into blood and flesh fragments.

The true disciples of Xuanwu tiangong, on the other hand, received even more intense attention.

Upon discovery,

several tank divisions’ armor-piercing bullets would immediately encircle them, and even though they possessed some powers of Golden Pill Monks, they would be blasted to pieces within a few breaths, burning Essence Blood to transform into escape lights fleeing into the distance.

Clang!

With the fall of a sword cry, these frantically fleeing true disciples of Xuanwu tiangong paused their escape lights for a moment and became tiny fragments amongst the expanse of azure Sword Qi, devoid of the slightest whiff of life.

”Where are they?”

At this moment, Jiang Ding’s attention was not on the battlefield.

Apart from occasionally slashing with his sword to kill true disciples of Xuanwu tiangong who were using their last resort to flee, he would conceal his form and explode with all his speed, flying to and fro at the edge of the battlefield, his Sword Intent scouring the surrounding area in ranges of up to ten kilometers.

At times, he would fly out tens of kilometers, circling the battlefield, tracing irregular flight paths.

”Not here.”

”Not this way either, perhaps they went in that direction...”

He searched over and over again.

Hiding and seeking was just as intriguing as this.

He was certain that if the Xuanwu Substitute Daoist appeared within the range of his Sword Intent, he could definitely find them. Any Concealment would be useless.

But if they never entered his range, then there was nothing he could do.

”Blood Soul Tracking Arrow?”

”No, it’s not good enough. The means of Liudao Sect are still far inferior to those of Xuanwu tiangong. This particular inferior Treasure is of no use.”

Jiang Ding quickly calculated in his mind.

Concealing his Escape Light, he flew through the sky, randomly searching for any possible enemies. His speed was much faster than theirs; there was still a chance.

Suddenly, the invisible transparent sword-shaped Escape Light paused.

He looked towards the Blue-dressed Fairy who suddenly appeared within the ten-kilometer range of Sword Intent, flying cautiously at the speed of an early Golden Pill stage Cultivator, well-concealed.

Cold white mist swirled around her, freezing the Divine Soul.

”Great Sun Swordsman!”

Li Han slowly turned around, also looking towards the green-robed young man in the sky.

”Somewhat familiar.”

”You bear a resemblance to the aura of Immortal Yinwu, your Magic Intention is similar to her Sword Intent, equally disgusting.”

Jiang Ding mused to himself.

The magnetic sensation in his brow flickered, a profound portal opened, and the air around him was filled with dense Magnetic Field Spirit Power Gathering Formation dotted line matrix patterns, with the intent of Destruction spreading everywhere.

”Xuanwu Substitute Daoist, Immortal Li Han, this is our first meeting. My name is Jiang Ding.”

”Will you take your own life or shall I assist you on your journey?”
