Bombarding Cultivators with Cluster Artillery

The Golden Palace conference lasted for several months.

It involved war preparations and deeper cooperation with the Eight Great Immortal Sects.

Among the most significant developments was that the Nine Great Immortal Sects would center around the space channel in the Horned Ming Realm to collaboratively construct a Star Domain Grand Formation controlled jointly by the Nine Sects, to prepare for retaliation from the Horned Ming Realm.

This is one of the benefits gained from the alliance of Immortal Sects under the threat of a powerful foreign enemy.

For this purpose, the Eight Great Immortal Sects brought forth a seventh-rank great formation from their heritage called the Nine Spirits Life and Death Illusionary Yin-Yang Dust Formation, sharing it with Xianmen Sect in an attempt to construct a Star Domain formation that transcends Refining Nothingness.

Clearly, those eight madmen, mad as they are, remained sane and made various preparations, conceding many things.

Apart from their bottom lines, they have conceded everything.

Xianmen Sect once tried to exchange Refining Nothingness heritage for cooperation, a proposal that was immediately rejected. This was their bottom line.

This seventh-tier Nine Spirits Life and Death Illusionary Yin-Yang Dust Formation is one of the few heritages that transcend Refining Nothingness that Xianmen Sect has encountered. Although it doesn’t offer direct benefits, its role in broadening knowledge and expanding horizons is significant, offering clear guidance for many studies.

Xianmen Sect and the Eight Great Immortal Sects are currently mobilizing a vast amount of Heavenly Material and Earthly Treasures and Cultivators, preparing to construct this formation.

From the current perspective, it is exceedingly difficult.

Among the Nine Great Immortal Sects, there are no Seventh-tier Array Masters, not even those close to reaching Seventh-tier.

Mentioning the seventh-rank Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures and Formation Instruments needed to establish the formation is beyond feasible.

Under such conditions, arranging a seventh-rank formation is like a fantasy, nearly impossible.

But what other choice is there?

The Horned Ming Realm could possibly possess beings that transcend Refining Nothingness.

One can only say, prepare to the best of our abilities, try to achieve close to seventh-rank if not seventh-rank itself.

Perhaps relying on the geographical advantage of the space channel, maybe relying on luck, perhaps the potential being transcending Refining Nothingness might not be in its normal state, perhaps... perhaps we might contend against those transcending Refining Nothingness.

So many maybes.

That’s all we can do now, as facing a high-rank cultivator with a lower-rank, it’s luck that dictates the key to victory or defeat.

Months later, the profoundly impactful Golden Palace meeting, which might influence the rise and fall of this domain for hundreds of years, concluded.

Under the supervision of the Central Array Spirit Computer, numerous Heavenly Monarchs greatly enhanced the secrecy restrictions within their Divine Souls, thereafter dispersing.

Exiting the room, everyone appeared normal, unfazed as if Taishan was collapsing before them, unlike their explosive anger during the meeting.

The end of the conference at the Golden Palace wasn’t the end but rather the start of many more meetings.

Many issues in Xianmen Sect needed immediate attention. They were coordinating with the Eight Great Immortal Sects, all the while various factories prepared to produce various war instruments, even exporting them to the Eight Sects to arm their Army Formations and enhance their combat power, including Refining Void Army Formations and Refining Void Dao Soldiers.

This was a very risky move that could potentially compromise the safety of Xianmen Sect.

However, this effort wasn’t in vain.

The Eight Great Immortal Sects needed to provide more high-rank Heavenly Materiel and Earthly Treasures, fostering the birth of more Divinity Transformation Cultivators in Xianmen Sect.

It can be clearly stated that as long as there is a sufficient supply of high-rank Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, Xianmen Sect could continuously produce Divinity Transformation Cultivators to a certain extent.

The numerous hibernating cultivators of past generations are no joke.

Depleting Xianmen Sect’s talent reserves would be quite difficult.

As long as the number of Divinity Transformation Monks and Nascent Soul Monks in Xianmen Sect increases, the combat strength of its Army Formations would also increase directly. Therefore, they would not suffer but rather would profit greatly, one of the concessions outside of the bottom line of the eight great experts.

The Eight Great Immortal Sects were actually not too pleased.

But, should they really be unyielding, Xianmen Sect would definitely go mad; by then, it would be difficult to tell who was truly mad or pretending, as both sides would certainly have a deadly fight before attacking the Horned Ming Realm.

The Golden Palace conference was to arrange and implement these various matters, where each Heavenly Monarch had different tasks.

Right after leaving the Golden Palace, Jiang Ding was immediately pulled aside by a clone of Heavenly Monarch Wanji to attend a meeting at the Immortal Sect Martial Soul Research Institute.

At the same time, another distant clone responsible for education dragged another clone of Jiang Ding to an education system meeting, while Divine Mechanism Heavenly Monarch took another clone of Jiang Ding to a military meeting for, especially the Sword Cultivator reconnaissance system, and the Array Spirit Research Institute...

Nearly all the Heavenly Monarchs were in continuous operation, hardly having enough clones to attend to all tasks.

Martial Soul Research Institute.

This newly established institute is located in the stratosphere high above Xiandu, where the branches of the Divine Wood Sky Covering Banyan are thick, forming a sea of greenery. A cold breeze brings refreshing relief.

A group of Heavenly Monarchs settles down around.

Heavenly Monarch Wan Ji, Pingyang Heavenly Monarch, and others, over thirty people, all prominent Heavenly Monarchs from the Immortal Sect in the materials industry, participated in the Great Sun Luminous Gold project.

”There are too few people.”

”We don’t have enough hands.”

Heavenly Monarch Wan Ji looked around and said helplessly, ”I remember there are a dozen friends who are good at materials in hibernation, right?”

”When the Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures of the Eight Great Immortal Sects are in place, wake them up and ask them to lend a hand.”

”No, don’t disturb them.”

”Wan Ji, don’t talk nonsense.”

Pingyang Heavenly Monarch chuckled and persuaded repeatedly, ”Their lifespans are limited, and it’s more important for them to advance to Divinity Transformation. We would be sinners if they work till half, run out of lifespan, and fall down silently.”

”That’s true.”

Heavenly Monarch Wan Ji shook the computer screen: ”Enough chit-chat, let’s start the meeting of the Martial Soul Research Institute.”

”The main focus is on the Great Sun Luminous Gold.”

Heavenly Monarch Wan Ji glanced at Jiang Ding: ”News has come from the Moon Exploration Expedition Laboratory about a breakthrough in research on the application of Great Sun Luminous Gold in the Immortal Sect.”

”Since we integrated this challenge with the Refining Nothingness project, Great Sun Transformative Mystique, and other challenging academic problems of the Immortal Sect into the Moon Exploration Experiment, those eight lunatics didn’t make strange comments.”

”They know their place.”

Heavenly Monarch Wan Ji snorted coldly.

It was clear that he was extremely dissatisfied with the Eight Great Immortal Sects for dragging the Immortal Sect into a war in an unknown domain without granting the Immortal Sect’s legacy of Refining Nothingness.

If it weren’t for the lack of strength, he would have had the mind to kill them.

”We just received news that along with the breakthrough in the coordinates of the Horned Ming Realm, several of our technologies have also broken through.”

”Let’s not talk about the others now, that’s not the topic of today’s meeting, and someone else is handling it. It’s none of our business.”

”What we need to discuss now is the application of Great Sun Luminous Gold.”

Heavenly Monarch Wan Ji handed everyone a piece of research material: ”The extremist nature of Great Sun Luminous Gold has been initially addressed in the laboratory, by using the ’multitude’ of Immortal Sect Martial Soul, through a Sword Cultivator’s method, initiating a refining process similar to a Sword Fight with the extremist Sword Intent within Great Sun Luminous Gold. Defeating its will, we can use Great Sun Luminous Gold as an additive in engines, gun barrels, Spirit Particle Sonar, etc.”

”We estimate a five percent efficiency increase in engines, which is not bad as it is just a bonus.”

”The most important ability of Great Sun Luminous Gold is the amplification of ’intent’ and the amplification of Immortal Sect Martial Soul ’multitude’. According to current research, Great Sun Luminous Gold can almost enhance the strength of Martial Soul by sixty percent, significantly boosting the military strength of the Immortal Sect.”

”Undoubtedly, this is a strategic project!”

”Ladies and gentlemen!”

Heavenly Monarch Wan Ji excitedly waved his mechanical arm and said: ”Our next task is to move Great Sun Luminous Gold out of the laboratory and truly apply it to various warships and Starry Sky Fortresses of the Immortal Sect. It would be best if we could refit all the Immortal Sect warships before the impending domain war, to provide more self-protection for the Immortal Sect.”

”Enough said, let’s get to work…”

Heavenly Monarch Wan Ji began assigning tasks to everyone.

Behind this meeting, the Immortal Sect’s various shipbuilding groups and various research institutes had tens of thousands of attending Immortals. Under the command of the Immortals of Nascent Soul, millions of industrial populace were on standby, ready to receive instructions from above at any time.

This involved a massive project with millions of cultivators.

Seeing this, Jiang Ding felt relieved.

”It’s a success.”

”It’s a success... my path has begun to deeply integrate into the industrial system of the Immortal Sect...”

Jiang Ding was joyous and equally busy in his heart.

Under his command, the Sword Dao Hall laboratory and Sword Dao Hall Group, along with other Sword Cultivator researchers, were also busy calculating and supporting all necessary efforts in the Great Sun Luminous Gold project to accelerate the application implementation plan of the Immortal Sect’s Great Sun Luminous Gold.
