Bombarding Cultivators with Cluster Artillery

”Mingguang elder brother, do not worry.”

Xi Ping’an raised his cup in a toast and said, ”I follow the Incense Divine Dao. My father left me enough Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, I do not lack anything, having more would be useless.”

”What I lack is only billions of living beings.”

He sighed.

The Incense Divine Dao requires the nurturance of billions of living beings. It does not matter whether they are the Human Race, Demon Race, Sea Clan, or any other intelligent beings, all can sustain themselves with the power of incense and ascend to higher realms.

This is the foundation of the Incense Divine Dao, and also the reason why he has always been trying to find a strong supporter.

The best supporter would naturally be the Dari Swordsman, but he does not like Xi Ping’an, and even if he did, as friends, the customs of the Eastern Devil School would not allow him to nourish beings with the incense and he would be kept out of it.

After all, Mingguang Zi was a former Dari Swordsman, and his talents and abilities need not be mentioned, perhaps capable of transforming into a dragon amidst turmoil, soaring above the Nine Heavens.

”Mingguang elder brother, shall we kill this native? I assure you no one will escape.”

Xi Ping’an looked towards Shuoyang Heavenly Monarch and asked.

Sword Cultivators can use the powerful as a whetstone to enhance their own strength.

Shuoyang Heavenly Monarch’s expression changed greatly.

”No need.”

Mingguang Zi spoke disinterestedly, ”Being defeated by the powerful yet striking at the weak, this is not the Sword Dao, I feel ashamed.”

”I actually have a sword technique that I realized from Immortal Technique, which should also have Quasi-Refining Void Force, but it requires a lot of Essence Blood to use, and at most it could only match Jiang Dingzi’s Starry Sky Fleet, hence I hesitated...”

He sighed.

Uncertain whether it was regret or relief.

That one sword strike, with a one in ten thousand chance of victory to slay the opponent, also had a much higher chance of certain death, Xi Ping’an might not be able to save him.

”Fellow Daoists.”

Shuoyang Heavenly Monarch breathed a sigh of relief, ”I have many insights into Immortal Techniques that I can share with you...”

He took out two Jade Slips and respectfully handed them to the two.

”Alright.”

Xi Ping’an reluctantly accepted it.

The three discussed mysterious doctrines, and for a moment reverted back to a harmonious state.

”Shuoyang fellow Daoist, how much Life Energy do you still have?”

Mingguang Zi suddenly asked.

”Over three hundred years, and this is already after several extensions.”

Shuoyang Heavenly Monarch said calmly.

”I have even less, just over a hundred years of life, if I take Life-Extending Elixirs, it would be roughly similar to yours.”

Mingguang Zi spoke slowly, ”If I cannot find a Minor Thousand World to pass the Divinity Transformation Heavenly Tribulation, I will die in a few hundred years.”

Ascending to Divinity requires a Minor Thousand World, Spiritual Veins, and Spiritual Energy.

”Shuoyang fellow Daoist, do you have a way?”

Mingguang Zi and Xi Ping’an stared at Shuoyang Heavenly Monarch, their eyes filled with unspeakable meanings.

According to their knowledge, this elite native of Northern Plains capable of integrating fragments of Immortal Techniques, it’s not just his own talents but also the intervention of external forces.

That kind of Blood Path rule power, a piece of brown withered flesh...

”...Yes.”

Under their gaze, Shuoyang Heavenly Monarch dared not refuse, gritting his teeth he said, ”There’s a Supreme Honor who once ordered me to lead an Upper Realm army, providing me with many Formation Instruments, Formation Methods, he even once controlled my Divine Soul, in the end I fortunately escaped amidst the contamination by Immortal Techniques.”

”If absolutely necessary, we might be able to call upon the power of the Upper Realm.”

”That’s right, even if the situation worsens, it’s still better than forcibly breaking through Jiang Dingzi’s Boundary Stabilizing Formation, I wonder if both of you...”

”Just so.”

Mingguang Zi nodded, ”While Hei was still around, we planned this matter, if someone from the Upper Realm comes, it might be possible to repair the Ascension Platform, then we might have a one in ten thousand chance...”

His eyes gleamed with flames.

The Upper Realm, immensely vast, might just have a chance to rebuild the foundation, to eliminate Taoist disciples and elites, sharpen the sword, and return to the complete state of the Dari Swordsman.

At that time, slaying the Dao enemies and pushing the Great Sun Swordsmanship towards the True Immortal Path, wouldn’t that be delightful?

”If everything goes smoothly, when will the Upper Realm Cultivators arrive?”

Xi Ping’an asked.

”About thirty years from now, if that Supreme Honor hasn’t deceived me...”

...

As time flowed leisurely, twenty years passed.

In the Thirty-Third Heavenly Gang Orbit of Xianmen Sect, within the Great Sun Heavenly Pond, the Sun Abyss.

Jiang Ding opened his eyes.

This was the twentieth year following Hei to learn Sword Dao, his gains were substantial, his foundation in Sword Dao was much solidified, and he gained a clear view of the Fifth Realm of Sword Dao.

Jiang Ding was completely confident, in seizing control over the Swordsmanship of the Fifth Realm of Sword Dao in the moment he ascended to Divinity.

”Ah-choo...”

Jiang Ding let out a yawn, and a wave of drowsiness spread through his Divine Soul.

”Swordsman,”

”It’s time for you to go into deep slumber.”

The Great Sun Heavenly Pond Moon Spirit reminded, ”A thousand-year slumber is a necessary path for growth in the Sword Realm, unless you are sure that fighting could bring you multiple benefits, it’s better to enter slumber sooner.”

”I understand.”

Jiang Ding responded but did not start to slumber; instead, he took out thirty-one brilliantly glowing jade slips from his Storage Jade Pendant.

Among them were three Combined Path Scriptures, with the strongest being the ”Great Sun Sword Sutra,” and twenty-seven Void Refining Scriptures.

There was also the most powerful, though incomplete, scripture above the Combined Path, the ”Sun and Moon Sword Scripture.”

These represent the ultimate achievements of Immortal Dao Technology from the Great Sun Sword Pavilion.

The remaining billions of scripture jade slips are being rushed and should be ready before Jiang Ding goes into deep slumber, greatly enriching the foundations of the Xianmen Library.

Hei, of course, was very reluctant, but he could not defy a Great Sun Swordsman determined to squander wealth.

Without the Great Sun Sword Master’s restraint, the Swordsman is the Master of the Great Sun Sword Pavilion, possessing supreme and unrestrained power, and no one could stop him from doing anything.

”This is...”

Yue hesitated, having noticed something.

”Swordsman!”

”Swordsman!!!”

The Great Sun Heavenly Pond Moon Spirit let out a sharp scream, ”Where did you get so many Sword Pavilion inheritances from?”

”What, what are you trying to do?”

”No, don’t!”

”Swordsman, I beg you...”

Yue pleaded.

”Yue, you don’t worry about where I got them from.”

Jiang Ding rolled his eyes and sneered, ”Relax, the glory of the Great Sun Swordsmanship begins here, don’t cling to sectarian views. The past glory is just that, the past; the future glory of the Great Sun Swordsmanship is in our hands.”

”Who’d have guessed it would be so easy!”

”This is the heritage of the sect for tens of thousands of years!”

Yue shouted.

”Yue,”

”Heritage is meant to be shown to the world.”

Jiang Ding ignored Yue’s screams, opening up the privacy settings and allowing the Central Array Spirit Computer’s Divine Sense to flood into the Great Sun Heavenly Pond, landing on the treasures of Immortal Wisdom accumulated by the Great Sun Sword Pavilion over tens of thousands of years.

”New knowledge discovered!”

”New knowledge discovered!”

”Discovering...”

The Central Array Spirit Computer issued an alarm-like sound, craving the new knowledge to the marrow, completing the calculation in an instant.

”New knowledge owner, Immortal Sect citizen Jiang Ding.”

”Collecting, uploading, library points are being calculated...”

A deep blue light covered the pile of jade slips in front of Jiang Ding, starting to upload without regard for the heritage owner’s opinion.

This aggressive action would infuriate any Outer Realm Cultivator to become a relentless and implacable enemy.

However, for an Immortal Sect citizen, this is just the natural order of things.

”Ha ha!”

”The foundation of the Immortal Sect is enriched again! No, by tenfold! These are inheritances of the Harmonization Realm and above!”

Jiang Ding laughed heartily seeing the Array Spirit’s action, ”Elders, hurry and grow, become strong pillars, and pull me forward.

Let us have whatever we need, using top-class resources of the Domain to crush opponents with Flying Swords worth several, even dozens of Minor Thousand Worlds.”

”A great step forward in the great Dao!”

The Central Array Spirit Computer swiftly uploaded the new knowledge, concerning Refining Nothingness, Harmonization, and above Harmonization realms.

Every moment, every second, the foundation of Immortal Wisdom of the Immortal Sect was exploding, rapidly advancing!

This instant, hundreds of thousands of ongoing difficult research projects, sustained over several generations of Cultivators, suddenly bore results.

Suddenly garnering the achievements of another powerful civilization of Immortal Dao.

This was no coincidence; as the Central Array Spirit Computer uploaded, every second, every minute, an Immortal Sect problem was solved!

This was the wisdom of ancient Cultivators, who also faced similar problems.

The wisdom of ancient and present met in this moment.

The foundation of the Immortal Sect was constantly exploding!

This rapid surge in the foundation of Immortal Dao alarmed the entire upper echelons of Nascent Soul Cultivators in the Immortal Sect.
