Bombarding Cultivators with Cluster Artillery

Yellow Sand Minor Realm.

Amidst the swirling yellow sand, there occasionally flickers specks of Spirit Sand that resemble stars, appearing and disappearing in a flash. This Wu Earth Spirit Sand, unique to the Yellow Sand Minor Realm, has many marvelous uses in Artifact Refining and Body Refinement.

A Blood-robed Taoist walks through the yellow sandstorm, the sand blowing through his body without causing any impact.

Every now and then, demon beasts such as the Crested Spirit Lizard, made agile and vigilant, crawl past without noticing anything.

”The center of the Yellow Sand Minor Realm is dominated by a place called Yellow Sand Holy City, controlled by Shayi King of the Flame Stone Family. This man allied himself with Cangkong Imperial Child during the later stages of the war.”

Jiang Ding slowly paced through the sandstorm, heading towards Yellow Sand Holy City.

By this time, eight years had passed.

Jiang Ding had been keeping an eye on the army of Cangkong Imperial Child from the Magic Vine Minor Realm and noticed that it never disbanded, giving him no opportunity; hence, he left.

For several years, his traces spread across various minor worlds occupied by the Cangkong Imperial Child, stirring up chaos everywhere.

This was not because he could teleport instantaneously, but rather because he was utilizing arrangements made by the Flame Stone Family.

For tens of thousands of years, the Flame Stone Family has ruled this Star Domain. Naturally, the breach of a Minor Thousand World did not lead to utter loss of control; many secret manipulations and spies still remained hidden, ready to revive should external forces emerge, showcasing their profound depth.

This is the drawback of lacking a Boundary Formation—difficulty in completely controlling a Minor Thousand World.

After passing through one region, the windsand temporarily ceased.

A vast oasis with no visible boundaries appeared ahead, where many slaves of the desert clans labor for their masters, serving a Horned Demon Imperial Clan family—the Sha Yan Family.

Their Family Head, a mid-stage General from the Horned Demon Imperial Clan, was summoned by the Cangkong Imperial Child, serving as a General in his army, managing tens of thousands of soldiers.

Currently in the family, only an early-stage General of the Horned Demon Imperial Clan and a Fourth Tier Superior Formation Method remain.

Jiang Ding halted, stretching out his finger.

Drip!

A drop of dark red blood the size of a fingertip fell to the ground, mixing with the yellow sand.

It absorbed the Heavenly Earth Spiritual Qi from all directions, growing continuously and eventually forming a one-meter-tall Blood-robed Taoist with a dark black longsword at his waist, emanating an aura of Early Stage Nascent Soul.

His Mana and Divine Sense were at the Early Stage of Nascent Soul.

If combined with Swordsmanship and insights of Divinity Transformation Level, he could slay entities at the Nascent Soul Peak.

Currently, with the strength for three strikes, there was only so much Spiritual Power and Divine Sense reserve; after all, this was not a real clone, but merely a drop of blood possessing Spirituality and some memories.

However, if he could slay enough lives and absorb enough blood, it was possible to prolong its lifespan.

Theoretically, if continuously fed with external blood and Divine Souls, this drop of blood could survive for five hundred years.

This one-meter-tall Blood-robed Taoist stood like a statue, its gaze empty and lifeless.

”Qi Ling...”

Jiang Ding pointed with his finger.

Blood Path, a myriad of avatars, almost an instinct, is a natural talent, not to mention the enhanced potency when coupled with the Blood Dao Technique.

A Spiritual Light descended.

The eyes of the one-meter-tall Blood-robed Taoist began to sparkle with intelligence, quietly observing his own original body.

His gaze held no deference, but was level, and even held a subtle, imperceptible arrogance.

This is the downside of Demonic Path Cultivation Methods and Magic—the burden of dark thoughts, always at risk of backfiring, even just after forming and before it could experience the external world, inherent demonic thoughts existed.

In such cases, many Demonic Path Cultivators opt to set Spirit Soul Restrictions on their clones, controlling life and death with a single thought.

”Go, slay the strong ones of this world, create more chaos.”

”Extend your own life as much as possible.”

Jiang Ding said indifferently, without intent to impose any Spirit Soul Restrictions.

No need.

The clone couldn’t possibly be stronger than him.

If the clone were stronger, it would mean that he had become slack and weak, and such a person would have died long ago amidst the many dangers of the Cultivation World.

It wouldn’t be the turn of a flawed Xiantian clone to take his life; there are plenty of others lining up to kill him, so step aside and queue up.

”I, truly hope, that one day I can kill you...”

Blood-robed 2436 whispered.

His figure gradually disappeared.

”Alright.”

”Keep dreaming.”

Jiang Ding was too lazy to pay him any heed, curling his lip: ”What the hell, almost every one of you says the same, did I provoke or offend you?”

”Can’t you have a bit of awareness as a clone?”

Blood-robed 2436 did not respond; he seemed to have completely left.

Jiang Ding detoured around the Sha Yan Family and continued on his way towards the Yellow Sand Holy City.

Cangkong Imperial Child had been shrinking back all this time.

This was actually very good.

It gave Jiang Ding the opportunity to clear each realm one by one, create chaos, break into the territories of various Horned Demon Imperial Clan families, and let chaos spread over the Fifth-Order Spiritual Veins.

Yellow Sand Holy City, this branch of the Flame Stone Family, was about to become the second family to be annihilated.

Not long after the blood-robed Taoist left.

A crimson blood-light appeared in the territory of the Sha Yan Family, Sword-light flashed and then vanished, followed by the shattering of the Clan Protection Formation.

An expressionless one-meter tall blood-robed Taoist appeared amidst the collapsing Spiritual Light of the formation, releasing countless strands of blood-colored sword threads in all directions, bringing a storm of blood and violence.

Wails, screams, the angry roars of the Horned Demon Imperial Clan, the sounds of bodies being torn apart and shattered...

The Sha Yan Family instantly turned into hell.

After a dozen or so breaths, the entire Sha Yan Family calmed down, leaving only some infants and children, and women and children, who with eyes filled with hate yet fear, stared at the one-meter tall blood-robed Taoist.

The blood-robed Taoist paid them no heed.

From all around, countless clumps of blood and massive amounts of Heavenly Material and Earthly Treasure spoils flew towards him, enhancing his aura a bit.

”Now, I can live for another twenty-two years...”

The figure of Blood-robed 2436 slowly faded away.

Suddenly breaking in, suddenly disappearing.

The entire battle and the time for collecting spoils were kept within twenty breaths, precise and efficient, never delaying anything.

This similar combat style brought great trouble to the Horned Demon Imperial Clan Cultivators’ work of surrounding and killing across various places; in each Minor Thousand World, rivers of blood flowed, causing countless deaths and injuries, even leading to a term specifically spreading among the Horned Demon Imperial Clan Cultivators.

The Disaster of the Blood Demon!

This was the Disaster of the Blood Demon spreading across the entire Star Domain!

The General of the Horned Demon Imperial Clan Cultivators simply could not handle this situation, one after another General Clan continued to be annihilated, not to mention the even smaller families, one wave came, and they disappeared without a trace.

In this situation, the millions-strong army of the Cangkong Imperial Child were accumulating grievances daily, with no will to fight, urgently wanting to return to their families.

Sadly, even if they returned home, it was of no use.

They would still die.

Unless, the emperor took action, suppressing the Blood Demon’s clones everywhere.

What infuriated many Horned Demon Imperial Clan Cultivators was that no emperor took action yet, they always gathered in the Magic Vine Minor Realm, unwilling to spare even one emperor to suppress the Blood Demon in various Minor Thousand Worlds.
