Bombarding Cultivators with Cluster Artillery

Escape Lights flew out of Qingfeng University.

They were at least at the Nascent Soul level; those below could hardly maintain their normal state under such Heavenly Might.

All familiar faces: Immortal Dinghai, Immortal Luling, Zhang Junsheng, and several dozen other Immortals of Nascent Soul. Some had been in closed-door cultivation for hundreds of years, whom Jiang Ding did not recognize, all now explosively emerging like bees swarming out of a hive.

Tens of kilometers away, there were the likes of Divine Mechanism Heavenly Monarch of the Xianmen Science Institute and Immortal Liexing, president of Beidou University, and finally even Yu Qianzi, a botany teacher who was known in the outside world as the Immortal Gulin of the Eastern Devil School, also arrived.

Everyone watched the rolling dark clouds in the sky with uncertainty and confusion.

”Could it really be...”

”Divinity Transformation Heavenly Tribulation!”

Immortal Dinghai was ecstatic, dancing with joy, ”Our Xianmen Sect is about to gain another Heavenly Monarch. I must hurry to cling to their coattails, fawn over them, and have them show me Immortal Techniques. Once is absolutely not enough!”

”Nonsense!”

”With your sly looking face, the Heavenly Monarch will definitely not like you. It’s us honest-looking folks that the elders definitely prefer!”

Immortal Luling disagreed, cursing in response.

”There is some truth to that; it seems this elder does not favor those who are overly refined and scholarly, like Dinghai.”

Zhang Junsheng joked on the side.

In their conversation, it seemed they already knew the identity of the cultivator undergoing the Divinity Transformation Tribulation and were busily scheming in their minds about how to win favor.

The newly ascended Heavenly Monarchs were always very generous, and this was the time when conditions that were previously difficult to get approved might just be agreed upon on the spot. It was a rare opportunity.

”Does anyone have hair dye?”

”The kind that even Divine Sense can’t detect. Suddenly I feel yellow hair is the top aesthetic in the human world.”

”Has anyone got hair dye?” inquired an Immortal with a look of integrity.

”No, who would carry such a thing.”

”You could consider shaving off your original hair and then transplanting the hair of a yellow Demon Beast.”

”How about a second-order Yellow Wool Sheep?”

”Its tail hair is straight and smooth, almost like human hair. I know a thing or two about biological magic applied to this aspect,” said an Immortal wearing glasses, seemingly a biology professor.

”Straight and smooth won’t do; I remember it’s better if it’s a bit curly.”

Another female biology professor thought for a moment, ”You could consider a third-order Yellow Wool Sheep, as their hair has the right amount of curl. Ignoring the rejection reaction, it could be successfully transplanted in a day or two.”

”Makes sense, makes sense...”

Immortal Luling was overjoyed. He tore through space and disappeared, returning after a while with a third-order Yellow Wool Sheep and continuing to discuss with the surrounding Nascent Soul Immortals, ”Let’s further ponder the transplantation magic. Zhang Junsheng, I remember your parents used to work in hairstyling, with quite a sizable business. Come over and consult, see if it matches my style.”

”Alright...”

Zhang Junsheng scurried over excitably.

”...”

Jiang Ding watched speechlessly as the group of Immortals, the younger ones around seven or eight hundred years old and the older ones over a thousand, bald themselves, their heads sprouting clumps of black, then blue, then rainbow-colored hair, looking just like mutated creatures.

After a while, their heads successfully displayed yellow hair, though it was quite coarse or too fine, not quite like human hair.

”Let’s tweak it again...”

Immortal Dinghai took the lead in directing the development of the magic.

A group of Immortals worked together, and in just a few short hours, they had actually created a brand-new magic called ”Second-order Yellow Hair Transplant Skills.”

One by one, they were beaming with joy, adjusting the curliness of their yellow hair constantly by shrinking and lengthening it based on Zhang Junsheng’s suggestions, until a hairstyle quite similar to a certain flashy yellow-haired look appeared.

In an instant, Qingfeng University turned into a gathering place for aimless youths of society.

”Your esteemed Immortals...”

Yu Qianzi watched this scene, her worldview shaken, seemingly reluctant to speak straightforwardly, ”Are they always this lively?”

She was greatly astounded.

Immortals of Nascent Soul, in her impression, were either cold, or cunning and scheming, or bloodthirsty and brutal, or domineering, but none had ever been as... disorganized as those around her.

Certainly before, they all seemed very normal.

”... Just a moment of joy.”

Jiang Ding was at a loss for words.

”Pfft!”

Immortal Gulin chuckled softly on the side.

She was a gentle and beautiful woman wearing a dark green palace dress, with a cultivation base at the Golden Pill Peak, she whispered softly, ”Immortals, in the presence of a Heavenly Monarch, will display a certain ’childishness’ and can’t help but regard themselves as children.”

”It’s because when the Immortals were young, they followed the Heavenly Monarch to cultivate and grew accustomed to it.”

”That senior, famous for over three thousand years, had in fact long possessed the opportunity for Divinity Transformation but gave it up multiple times for his subordinates, who were older and in poorer states. Continuing to slumber, even though a Nascent Soul Immortal, his seniority is greater than many Heavenly Monarchs.”

”I see, Immortal Gulin, thank you for the enlightenment.”

Yu Qianzi bowed in response.

The person before her, although much weaker in strength, even at Golden Pill Peak her cultivation base was of no use.

However, her status was actually comparable to Qingmu Daoist of the Green Wood Immortal Sect, and her combat strength was naturally not far off, and perhaps even stronger.

At least, she once faced a joint attack by Xuanwu Daoist and Wanshou Daoist and only fell at a disadvantage, never defeated.

”Immortals’ uncontrollable childishness?”

Yu Qianzi, for some reason, felt envious.

The relationships between cultivators within the Eastern Devil School truly seemed beautiful.

Not like the strict hierarchy of the Immortal Sects where lower-level cultivators tiptoed nervously around those above them, cautious with every word for fear that a single mistake would ruin their path or even provoke a fatal disaster.

This was not an unfounded worry.

Every few years, there were cultivators who died because they had offended a higher-level cultivator through disrespect.

”Can Senior Sun Extinguisher succeed?”

Jiang Ding asked with concern.

Triggering the Heavenly Tribulation indicated that he had passed through the psychological phase, the wind tribulation, fire tribulation, and life energy decline of the Divinity Transformation tribulation, leaving only the most difficult Thunder Tribulation to overcome.

Indeed,

The person undergoing tribulation, he too had guessed, was none other than Immortal Mieri.

In the past century, he was the only one who had obtained the opportunity for Divinity Transformation, entered seclusion, and now the outcome was finally emerging.

”He will definitely succeed, without a doubt!”

Upon hearing this, Immortal Luling with curled-up yellow hair burst into laughter: ”You little ones don’t know about Senior Sun Extinguisher; he is a fierce figure who dominated the battlefields of the Great Sun Sword Pavilion, participated in the Refinement Void Battlefield several times without death, and made significant contributions.

Moreover, he repeatedly gave up his chance for Divinity Transformation, stepping aside for younger cultivators facing life’s end, displaying such confidence.”

”Uh... It seems there was a bit of a mishap at the end.”

”Back then, many Heavenly Monarchs were in an uproar, wanting to launch new plundering wars elsewhere, luckily...”

”That’s not important.”

Immortal Luling omitted that part and continued.

”What’s important is for you all to know that mere Heavenly Tribulations are not capable of affecting Senior Sun Extinguisher.”

”That is reassuring.”

Jiang Ding felt relieved.

A new Heavenly Monarch was about to be born, adding strength to the Xianmen Sect, stabilizing his path further, as well as everyone’s paths and safety.

The crowd gathered in the sky, watching the Heavenly Tribulation with rapt attention.

Months later, the final bolt of thunder struck, the dark clouds began to disperse, and a wave of terrifying pressure spread through heaven and earth, accompanied by boisterous laughter.

”Hahaha...”

”I, this big daddy, am back!”
