Bombarding Cultivators with Cluster Artillery

Wei Family estate.

Jiang Ding closed his eyes, and without cultivating, he entered the most energy-conserving standby state.

The turmoil of the Northern Plains had nothing to do with him.

All he needed was to cultivate quietly and stably, waiting for the passage of time, which would naturally impose a new order on the world, without the need to do anything else, letting the affairs of the world change as they may.

Time flew by swiftly, and before he knew it, five years had passed.

...

Jiang Ding of Silver Sky Island opened his eyes.

He looked toward the sky.

Next to the several hundred meters tall Sun God Wood, a giant iron ship quietly hovered. Strands of divine tree branches stretched over, merging along the deck and into the hull, then spreading towards the spirit particle engine, radar, hull formation, cannon barrels, and other parts.

Massive Heavenly Earth Spiritual Qi and Great Sun Essence flowed in with each breath, refining every bit of it.

After five years, the refining was finally complete.

Of course, speaking of refining, it actually referred to leaving one’s own Divine Sense Brand on every array pattern of the super warship, infusing one’s will into it to control it as easily as one’s own limbs, unlike the painstaking inscription of every Earth Evil Prohibition like a treasure, which is why it took so little time.

The deep blue tree branches retracted, pulling back into the body of the Sun God Wood. These metal branches had excellent flexibility, effortlessly stretching dozens of times their length.

”The initial refining is complete.”

With a thought from Jiang Ding, he activated the formation of the Super Sun Vessel.

Hum!

The spirit particle engine roared into life, suspending in the air, as bolts of lightning flickered across the giant iron ship, spreading over it. Thundercloud storms formed around it, wrapping around the hull and concealing its form.

From a distance, it appeared like a thunderstorm cloud, born from the heavens and earth, with azure lightning flashing intermittently and black fissures in space emanating an aura that made Nascent Soul Monks tremble in fear.

Fourth-tier Formation, Ten Thousand Magnetic Thunder Cloud Formation!

This was the core formation inscribed upon the hull of the ship, a complex formation combining mobility, defense, attack, and stealth in one. It was able to move freely, and even the autonomously operating formation of the Ship Spirit could hold its own against a Nascent Soul Monk without being at a disadvantage.

”A fourth-tier lower-grade formation...”

Jiang Ding muttered to himself.

The formation was currently of the fourth-tier lower-grade, which was the limit of what he could control and refine by himself at the moment.

The super warship had interfaces for upgrades, which would allow for further evolution of the super warship through the input of Heavenly Material and Earthly Treasure and continued refining in the future.

Besides, battles were also necessary; only through constant fighting would the Ship Spirit upgrade itself.

”Lastly, the most crucial super warship main cannon.”

Jiang Ding turned his gaze towards the center of the hull.

There stood a super cannon over a thousand meters long with a caliber exceeding a hundred meters, with azure runes that appeared and disappeared intermittently around it.

Just standing there, endless lightning spontaneously converged within the cannon’s barrel, with lines of blue magnetic induction spreading out in all directions like a web, covering a radius of over fifty kilometers.

This was the magnetic field of heaven and earth, twisted by external forces to reveal trajectories visible to the naked eye.

Magnetic Cloud Splitting Star Cannon!

A classic electromagnetic main gun of the Xianmen Sect’s fourth-tier Air-Space Mothership, which, when concentrated in bombardment, could tear apart dwarf planets in the universe, turning them into a field of stone dust.

Jiang Ding’s Divine Sense surged into it.

A series of Earth Evil Prohibition-like patterns stood erect within the barrel, neat and orderly, intricately complex, resembling miniature city mazes.

Flowing Divine Sense through them would be confusing without a thorough understanding of the Formation Dao, particularly the Ten Thousand Magnetic Thunder Cloud Formation—an uncareful move could result in getting lost within.

Jiang Ding, of course, was not susceptible to this. He had studied this particular formation method for over a hundred years, becoming more familiar with it than anyone could be.

Divine Sense navigated the Super Electromagnetic Main Gun with familiarity, occasionally stopping to inspect the Earth Evil Prohibition array patterns, inputting Divine Sense and a bit of Mana to verify their functional integrity.

Passing through thousands of small Formation Method nodes, the density and complexity of the Earth Evil Prohibition array patterns suddenly increased by hundreds of times what had come before.

It was like going from a small town to a big city overnight, where the Earth Evil Prohibition mechanisms were intricately complex—so much so that even a Golden Pill Peak Cultivator skilled in the Formation Dao would feel dizzy at the first glance.

The Divine Soul couldn’t accommodate such a vast amount of information all at once, let alone understand it.

”This is the Super Main Gun, the first Electromagnetic Prohibited Speed-up Device.”

Jiang Ding muttered to himself.

The Divine Sense no longer fixated on the minutiae of the gun’s prohibition details but soared upwards, climbing in perspective.

The complex and intricate massive Earth Evil Prohibition arrays gradually shrank into the distance.

The seemingly endless micro-array scenes disappeared, giving way to a cluster of three-dimensional, star-like array patterns embedded with countless mysterious Runes, twinkling and glowing intensely.

Then he turned his gaze further afield.

Such three-dimensional array pattern clusters appeared one after another, extending along a serpentine and twisted path, spreading into the boundless dark universe whose edge couldn’t be seen.

The perspective of Divine Sense rose again, looking down at the entire Magnetic Cloud Splitting Star Cannon’s Earth Evil Prohibition array from start to finish.

Seventy-two!

There were a total of seventy-two such clusters of three-dimensional array patterns, sprawling along what seemed like winding lines but were actually perfectly straight according to the rules of space, extending into the distance.

The seventy-two Electromagnetic Prohibited Speed-up Devices had a striking resemblance to the seventy-two Earth Evil Prohibition formations that were perfect in the Cultivation world’s Golden Pill Treasures, which was no coincidence.

”Commander sir!”

After Jiang Ding had inspected the entire warship’s Formation Method, with a snap of the heels of military boots coming together, a Ship Spirit materialized in front of the Divine Sense.

She was dressed in a dark green military skirt, with a striking appearance, her cute little face, a wide-brimmed military hat on her head, two electromagnetic cannons on each shoulder, and mechanical wings similar to Mirror Sword-shaped Drones on her back, with rows of ammunition boxes at her hips.

”The Super Sun Vessel has completed its self-inspection, all systems are normal, and all formation prohibitions throughout the ship are intact, ready to withstand the Nascent Soul Treasure Tribulation at any time.”

”Awaiting your command!”

Ship Spirit Yun Ri placed a small hand beside her wide-brimmed hat and saluted smartly, proudly saying.

”What is the probability of passing the tribulation?”

Jiang Ding inquired.

He had a fair amount of trust in the Ship Spirit.

She was a masterpiece of the Xianmen Sect’s artificial intelligence, playing a significant role in assisting with the control of warships—a true professional of considerable reference value.

”Ninety-nine point nine nine nine percent!”

Ship Spirit Yun Ri replied loudly, ”As long as no unforeseen errors occur, and there’s no serious external interference, the Super Sun Vessel has a high probability of passing the Treasure Tribulation.”

”Then let’s begin.”

Jiang Ding nodded, retracting the Taiqing Flying Sword that had transformed into the Sun God Wood and concealing his own aura.

Boom!

The command was given, and the Super Sun Vessel completely released its own aura constraints and cover.

An immense pressure spread in all directions, thunderclouds tumbled, and the domain of the Ten Thousand Magnetic Thunder Cloud Formation expanded, covering tens of kilometers.

A group of Golden Pill Monks arriving on the scene would find it stifling.

From a distance, the Super Warship amid the lightning looked like a Nascent Soul Stage being!

Boom!

A moment later, without any Internal Demon Tribulation, a blue-purple bolt of lightning tore through space and descended with a thunderous crash.
