Bombarding Cultivators with Cluster Artillery

In the fluttering Spiritual Light, the Divine Court of the East Sea shattered into pieces, plummeting towards the ground.

This scene, through the connection of Incense Fire, deeply imprinted into the hearts of billions of believers in the East Sea, instantaneously triggering a massive panic.

”God!”

”Jade Pure Dust Supreme Sword Lord!”

In numerous temples, under the sea and on the islands, the temple priests vomited fresh blood, fell to the ground, and screamed in terror.

They couldn’t believe it, and immediately struggled to get up, no longer caring about anything, their minds in chaos as they prayed: ”Praise the supreme Jade Pure Dust Supreme Sword Lord!”

”Your Sword Court, like the stars, shall hang everlasting!”

”Your radiance spreads across the land, and your path shall extend into the boundless domains...”

In the East Sea, countless temple priests with Divine Dao monks and believers within hundreds of miles together prayed, their loud and reverent voices echoing between heaven and earth, forming a massive tide of Incense Fire rushing towards here.

The power of Incense Fire nearly solidified, glowing in a brilliant golden hue.

Yet, these powers of Incense Fire garnered no response.

This was unimaginable in the past.

Jade Pure Dust Supreme Sword Lord is a true deity, praying to his divine name must certainly evoke awareness, responses vary, but awareness is a must!

Now, has the god fallen?

”No!”

”This cannot be!”

Some temple priests vomited blood again, unwilling to believe.

With a hardened expression, they immediately forced tens of thousands of devout believers and themselves to cut their own throats, their blood staining the base of the deity statues, starting the most severe and effective religious ritual known to gather the power of faith: the blood sacrifice ceremony!

The temple priests who performed this act were countless.

This is the world where true deities exist!

No matter how greedy, murderous, or lustful the temple priests are, those are common complexities found in human nature.

But one thing is clear.

All temple priests are devoutly fanatic believers!

Without such devotion, they could never serve as temple priests, could never communicate with deities; all talents must yield before this devout faith.

Now, that their connection to the deities has suddenly broken, they felt no liberation from their bonds; instead, they went mad, using all their strength to gather the power of Incense Fire Belief, hoping to awaken the deity once more.

The massive waves of Incense Fire surged, converging towards the original East Sea Sword Court.

Yet they found no physical entity to cling to.

”Jade Pure Dust Supreme Sword Lord!”

”Your radiance...”

”Your path...”

In the end, these intensely rich powers of Incense Fire Belief, enough to instantaneously elevate a Hairy Spirit to a higher rank, actually created from nothing, forming a burly Golden Armor Deity General wielding a Great Sword, his majestic gaze fixated in the distance.

Remarkably, from nothing, creating out of the void, forcibly re-creating a Jade Pure Dust Supreme Sword Lord on the spot!

”Sss!”

”Amazing!”

Jiang Ding was shocked as he saw this.

He saw it clearly; there was nothing there originally, not air, water, Spiritual Energy, nor space was involved in the reaction, the massive Incense Fire Belief spontaneously formed a Golden Armor Deity General, whose aura was at Fourth Order from the start and was rapidly increasing.

If given another hundred years, returning to God-Transformation Phase would be commonplace.

This was truly creating from the void, completely disregarding any laws of energy balance, astonishing to behold.

”Don’t look so inexperienced.”

”Stay calm!”

Jiang Ding opened his eyes wide and comforted himself: ”The world of Immortal Dao is different from home. Spiritual and Divine Soul power is also a material, also a form of energy. The belief in Incense Divine Dao is merely a shortcut to utilize this power.”

”The Immortal Path at its profound levels can achieve the same.”

”The balance of energy and matter still exists; it is not created from nothing.”

During the delay of a few breaths, the body structure of the Golden Armor Deity General gradually stabilized. Under the infusion of countless Godly incense powers, he suddenly opened his eyes.

”God Profaner!”

”Must be executed!”

The Golden Armor Deity General drew his sword, the Golden Great Sword stirred up the winds and clouds of tens of kilometers, slashing down towards the green-clothed youth not far away.

Despite his mountain-like majestic body, the green-clothed youth looked so tiny.

Yet, the aura between the two was completely reversed.

Anyone who came here would have this feeling, a tiny ant as large as a mountain challenging the entire sky.

Indeed, that was the case.

Clang!

Jiang Ding did not draw his sword, a flash of Blue-Gold Sword Qi pierced through the brow of the Golden Armor Deity General.

”God Profaner...”

The body of the Golden Armor Deity General stiffened, then once again collapsed into a sky of Spiritual Light.

Around, a tsunami-like force of Godly incense belief surged again, trying to condense another Golden Armor Deity General, their deity. Yet a Blue-Gold Sword Qi always appeared just as the body was about to form, destroying everything. The Sword Qi was eternal and indestructible.

The tide of incense belief was extinguished with a single sword strike.

Billions of beings thought their power of incense was immense and endless, but in front of a strong practitioner of Immortal Dao, it was nothing but trivial dust.

”If the incense does not extinguish, the belief does not fade, the deities do not die...”

Jiang Ding muttered to himself softly: ”Then I shall uproot the belief entirely and extinguish all the incense.”

”My Human Race is a race with flexible boundaries, expecting them to worship one person unwaveringly is dreaming in broad daylight.”

”To put it rudely, without power, what are deities but onions?”

”Without power, deities would be despised even by dogs of the mortals.”

After Jiang Ding finished his sword strike, he no longer paid attention to his surroundings.

His Divine Sense and Sword Intent spread out in all directions, slowly searching through the sky, the ocean, and a Fifth Order Lower Grade Spirit Vein beneath the sea.

Almost nothing was found.

This place had ample time to clear out, preparations were thorough, probably evacuated here before the battle in the West Desert, hiding somewhere unknown.

”Are you beyond this world...?”

Jiang Ding looked up, gazing into the barrier of the void.

He wasn’t sure.

In the Book Pavilion of Shuoyang Heavenly Monarch, in records left by the Nine Heaven Divine Thunder Sect, it was commonly noted that this Minor Thousand World exists isolatedly, surrounded by no other Minor Thousand Worlds, going out alone was akin to seeking death.

Shuoyang Heavenly Monarch, when he cultivated to the Late Truth-Transforming Stage and found no advancements, once ventured out alone, roamed for hundreds of years, and finally had to return here, nearly exhausted and close to death.

This Minor Thousand World was a dead end.

In the distant past, there existed an ascension pathway, or ascension rules. Cultivators who reached the Peak of Hua Shen had a chance to ascend through the pathway to that world, whose name is ineffable.

Now, this path is severed.

”Xi Ping’an, did you and Bai Zu Heavenly Lord escape beyond this world, or are you hiding somewhere within?”

”It’s hard to guess.”

Jiang Ding didn’t care much, said softly: ”All of this, once I complete the Starry Sky World-Locking Array that covers the entire world, I think there will be an answer, at most it will take a hundred years.”

With the World-Locking Array, only then can you say the entire world is under control.
