Bombarding Cultivators with Cluster Artillery

The thunder of cannon fire and billions of electromagnetic faux lines filled the air, and Jiang Ding was somewhat reluctant.

Under the relentless bombardment of the Super Warship Great Sun, the army formation of the seven daoists was in disarray. Each daoist was accumulating injuries, and even considering their trump cards, they would be worn down within at most ten years.

Then, a real opportunity to strike a killing blow would emerge.

However, looking around, the army formation of Xuanwu Heavenly Palace was breaking through from a distance, desperately controlling the heavy machinery of the army formation to increase speed and complete the encirclement.

Once they succeeded, the fleet of the Xianmen Sect would face certain death, and sixty Air-Space groups would be entirely buried here.

”I am not like Zhong Guangzi…”

Jiang Ding took a deep breath.

Zhong Guangzi battled alone against the Eight Great Daoists along with the daoists of the Xianmen Sect, totaling Nine Great Daoists, yet still managed to overwhelmingly dominate them and burned all his life at the last moment to perish together with the Nine Great Daoists.

His last remnant soul perished at the hands of the Immortal Sect and Xianmen Nascent Soul Cultivators, reduced to ashes.

One had to admit, back then, the Great Sun Sword Pavilion was unquestionably a dominating force.

Merely a Flying Sword was needed, nothing else, to kill all under the heavens.

Undoubtedly, this was the effect of the complete inheritance of the Great Sun Sword Pavilion, which placed the exploration of Immortal Path knowledge on a higher level, differentiating between the levels of civilizations.

”Let’s retreat.”

Jiang Ding sighed and issued the order.

”Yes!”

Ouyang Hui, the deputy commander of the Air-Space forces, breathed a sigh of relief, arranged for the troops to fight while retreating, and moved backward.

”Kill!”

”Hurry and kill them!”

Instantly, the morale of the army of the Eight Great Immortal Sects soared. Despite the low remaining mana, they still rallied their remaining strength and chased after the Xianmen fleet with frenzied eyes, relentlessly pursuing them.

The Immortal Sects, in order to eradicate the Eastern Devil School, had offered a huge bounty.

If they could achieve a feat in this battle, advancing from Foundation Establishment to Golden Pill, and from Golden Pill to Nascent Soul would be unobstructed, with no insurmountable mountains left, just moving forward effortlessly.

Now, seeing piles of Spirit Stones and Heavenly Material and Earthly Treasure about to flee before their eyes, the eyes of Immortal Sect Disciples turned red. No one needed to command them; burning Essence Blood, they chased relentlessly, sparing no effort.

The main war fleet of Xianmen was very calm, fighting while retreating, withdrawing composedly.

The cannon fire continued relentlessly, forming beams of Destruction Light Column that struck down any Immortal Sect Cultivator who slightly protruded or was isolated, causing countless deaths and injuries, and splintering palaces, pavilions, and Big Trees.

In an instant, this caused far more massive casualties than the previous stalemate, tens of thousands of Immortal Sect Cultivators were annihilated.

Many Immortal Sect Cultivators hesitated in their hearts and stopped in their tracks.

Meanwhile, there were areas the main fleet could not cover; Citizen Fleets mobilized by Xianmen, in their chaotic and hurried retreat, were pursued and decimated by the Immortal Sect Cultivators. Numerous warships were shattered by the power of the army formation, Air-Space warplanes had their wings broken, and mixed with blood, they plummeted to the ground.

”Hahaha…”

”The heads of the Diabolism scoundrels!”

Among the falling warships and Air-Space warplanes, a cultivator from the Wanshou Immortal Sect with tiger-striped forehead laughed loudly, ”This tremendous feat shall be claimed by me, Li Dengtian!”

His voice shook tens of kilometers, drawing countless envious and longing gazes.

He was a core disciple.

Jiang Ding watched coldly, doing nothing.

With the continuous roaring of the Great Sun’s super warship cannons, he suppressed the Taoist disciples of the Seven Great Immortal Sects, preventing them from obstructing the Immortal Sect Fleet’s retreat.

Occasionally, when there was spare capacity, he fired a shot that fell in the direction of the retreating Immortal Sect Fleet, where the encircling Immortal Sect allied forces were already beginning to appear.

Boom!

In the earth-shattering explosion, countless scorching electromagnetic Sword Qi splashed in all directions, controlled by the Ship Spirit Cloud Day. Each strand of Sword Qi was precisely guided and shot in various directions, blasting through the Immortal Sects’ protective shields and obstructions.

The Sword Qi struck the head of every Immortal Sect practitioner, piercing through it.

With one shot, an Immortal Sect formation equivalent to a whole Air-Space army group of Xianmen was shattered, and the inside cultivators were almost completely killed or wounded!

The path of the Immortal Sect Fleet’s retreat was clear and unobstructed!

The Immortal Sect Fleet retreated while fighting, continuously moving backward while occasionally firing millions of cannons in unison, repelling the pursuing Immortal Sects’ great army and disrupting their pursuit rhythm.

Suddenly, the fleet completely broke through the encirclement of the Immortal Sect practitioners, shaking off the enemy before the encirclement was formed, and swiftly disappearing from the sight of all the Immortal Sect practitioners.

The gap between the Immortal Sects’ army formations and the Immortal Sect Army formations was not just a gap in combat strength but also in mobility.

Many Immortal Sect Inheritance Disciples, serving as army commanders, glanced at the Seven Great Daoists with the corner of their eyes. Seeing that they had no intention of desperately stopping the Eastern Devil School’s army formation, they too turned their gaze away, continuously gathering up the Immortal Sect practitioners’ great army that had broken through from the Gangwind Layer, forming one formation after another.

Without the obstruction and interference of the Immortal Sect, the breaking path of the Immortal Sect practitioners was extremely fast, and their numbers surged rapidly.

In a short time, army formations crowded the skies like clouds, and cultivators poured like rain!

Just from the direction of the Spirit Fire Realm alone, the number of the Immortal Sect practitioners’ great army had already reached more than nine million, with the weakest being Foundation-building cultivators, all well-trained as the disciplined army of the Immortal Sects, proficient in formation, orderly in attack and defense, any one formation capable of easily annihilating a Nascent Soul Sect.

And there were hundreds of such formations here!

Filling the entire sky, in the increasingly vast center of these formations, beneath a Qingbi Divine Tree, specks of Taiyi Green Wood Spiritual Light scattered in all directions. Seven Daoists sat cross-legged, their wounds healing, their energy gradually returning to peak, without spending too much time.

”This generation’s Dari Swordsman is not much weaker than the previous one’s Dari Swordsman.”

”We cannot let him grow any further,”

Tianxuan Zi opened his eyes and said gravely, ”We must quickly suppress and kill him, or else, in the future, he might become a great calamity on our Immortal Path, like the Eastern Devil School, a constant source of unrest.”

”Indeed.”

The Heavenly Calculator Daoist nodded.

”Attack now, we have an army ten times larger, the power of hundreds of Minor Thousand Worlds. What is there to fear from a mere Starry Sky World-Locking Array?”

One by one, the Daoists rose to their feet, flew into their respective Immortal Sects’ armies. Upon a command, over nine million army of cultivators, wielding big trees, five-colored mountains, bronze pill pellets, shadowy clouds, and other massive army weapons, covered the sky as they hurtled towards the distance.

The Immortal Sect allied forces, dense and boundless, filled every piece of the sky. As they passed each area, a vast shadow would cover the land, visible for a long time.

The creatures on the ground thought night had fallen as they trembled under the terrifying might of the army formation, cowering on the ground, not daring to move an inch.

The might of the Immortal Sects’ army formation was horrifying, reaching up to the clouds of the Nine Heavens.

The army flew for several days.

In the distance,

Thirty-six Starry Sky Boundary Heaven Pillars shot up into the sky. Within these pillars, a million war machines circled and soared, faintly aligning with the surrounding star formations, wrapping each warship and each war machine in a thin veil of starlight.

The Boundary Stabilizing Formation of the Eastern Devil School had arrived!
