Bombarding Cultivators with Cluster Artillery

Chapter 1325: Chapter 1293: The Star Demon Tree Rooted in the Medium Thousand World

In the starry sky of the Horned Ming Realm,

for the first time, a terrifying plant appeared.

It rooted deeply into the spiritual veins and earth of the Medium Thousand World. Its massive trunk pierced through the clouds, the Realm Thunder Layer, the Gangwind Layer, and the World’s Crystal Wall, spreading outward into the starry sky. Dark green leaves and reddish-brown aerial roots swayed in the cosmic void, and its branches continued to extend and expand… even reaching toward the Seventh-Order Spiritual Veins where the Eight Great Immortal Sects resided!

“Audacious!”

“Arrogant!”

In an instant, the furious roars of seven Immortal Sect Great Powers shook the heavens.

Without hesitation, each one unleashed their Law Bodies, casting bolts of thunder, innumerable Five Elements Magic, and waves of Taiyi Green Wood Sword Qi…

Every strike embodied the pinnacle of Refining Void Rules, their immense power capable of rendering the lands of the so-called Horned Demon Imperial Clan uninhabitable. A single person could annihilate every member of the Horned Demon Emperor Clan beneath the Jiaoming Emperor’s level.

Crack!

Rumble!

Under this vast and overwhelming Refining Void onslaught, the encroaching branches of the Divine Wood Sky-Covering Rong snapped apart. Its foliage turned to dust, and its enormous trunk fell to the ground, leaving deep craters in its wake.

The growing vessel of the Central Array Spirit Computer sustained damage!

“Oh?”

Far away, standing among the Billion-Fleet Immortal Sect and the All Heavens Beidou Taibai Netherworld Curse Killing Array, a glint of ferocity flashed in his eyes, and killing intent erupted.

“Not good!”

Great Powers such as those from the Heavenly Mechanism Immortal Palace, the Five Elements Heavenly Sect, and the Wanshou Immortal Sect all quivered. Their Divine Souls trembled, feeling an incomparably terrifying and icy aura.

It was a Harmonization Stage Army Formation!

The military formation of the Eastern Devil School, which stood as an apex force within domains, far surpassing the might of the Jiaoming Emperor!

Zi~

Zi—zi…

Yet, the Great Powers of the Heavenly Mechanism Immortal Palace and others showed not the slightest fear. Instead, madness ignited in their eyes, their auras faintly stirring. It was as though the Harmonization Heavenly Tribulations of the Endless Starry Sky had begun to manifest, rushing toward this place.

And not just one, but the Heavenly Tribulations of seven Great Powers simultaneously!

“Stop, stop! A mistake was made.”

“My fault.”

Immediately, the figure in the distance apologized.

He, under the guise of the Immortal Sect’s ruler, proposed a suggestion to the Central Array Spirit Computer, which was promptly accepted.

The expansion of the Divine Wood Sky-Covering Rong slowed. Within a radius of tens of thousands of kilometers centered on the seven Great Powers, no leaves or roots of the tree could be found. Even where they originally existed, they retracted.

In less than a few days, the entire Nine Spirit Realm was engulfed by the Divine Wood Sky-Covering Rong.

This Medium Thousand World had transformed into a sea of trees. Banyan leaves and trunks spread across the entire world’s boundary, its skies, and the deep grounds filled with roots. Every tens of thousands of kilometers, a colossal pillar-like trunk descended, supporting a canopy of banyan leaves resembling clouds in the skies.

The branches and roots of these banyans faintly emitted the aura of the Starry Sky World-Locking Array.

The Starry Sky World-Locking Array had completely fused with the Divine Wood Sky-Covering Rong!

An array spanning an entire Medium Thousand World!

Buzz!

Buzz! Buzz!

At that moment, countless runes blossomed in the void, and countless array patterns circled the entire world. Beings from all walks of life witnessed a colossal world formation emerge from nothingness into existence, radiating the clear aura of a Harmonization Level Array. A Starry Sky World-Locking Array of Harmonization Level.

Yet the sole flaw lay in the array’s incompleteness. There remained seven gaps—areas within tens of thousands of kilometers surrounding the mountain gates of the Green Wood Immortal Sect, the Five Elements Heavenly Sect, the Heavenly Mechanism Immortal Palace, and the other seven Immortal Sects. These formed a perfect circular ring, entirely devoid of banyan leaves and roots.

This imperfection affected the world array’s integrity.

It was undeniably a tremendous regret.

Aside from this, every other location in this Medium Thousand World, including the mountain gate of the Xuanwu Heavenly Palace, was concealed under the cover of the Divine Wood Sky-Covering Rong. Nothing of the original landscape remained. All living beings present were restrained, awaiting the outcome of the Xuanwu Heavenly Palace Great Power’s tribulation crossing.

Unquestionably, if the Xuanwu Heavenly Palace Great Power were to fail the tribulation or lacked equivalent retaliatory deterrence after succeeding, all the cultivators of the Xuanwu Heavenly Palace would perish.

“The Demon School!”

“Utterly despicable!”

The Heavenly Mechanism Great Powers cursed fiercely.

Taking advantage of their temporary Harmonization-level capability, the Eastern Devil School displayed unparalleled shamelessness, forcefully overtaking the entire Medium Thousand World. Aside from the Seventh-Order Spiritual Veins, every other area was blanketed by the Divine Wood Sky-Covering Rong, forming a Seventh-Order Starry Sky World-Locking Array that amplified their strength immensely.

“Hmph!”

The seven Great Powers snorted coldly.

They refrained from further words, sitting cross-legged as they continued refining their Divine Sense and mana with the Seventh-Order Spiritual Veins.

Clearly, as long as their most vital interests remained untouched, they had no intention of risking their lives.

All would be deliberated after ascending to the Harmonization Stage, with no urgency for the present.

At that moment, the growth of the Divine Wood Sky-Covering Rong reached its limit. Its countless branches extended toward the starry sky, growing with deliberate order rather than chaos. Slowly, they aligned with the intricate array patterns of the All Heavens Beidou Taibai Netherworld Curse Killing Array, gradually replacing these temporary formations with its banyan branches and leaves.

From a distance,

a Star Tree rose within the Medium Thousand World!

Beneath its vast canopy, nine resplendent primary stars orbited, supported by the thickest nine banyan trunks.

Countless branches radiated outward, cradling dimmer stars—a total of 3,600 stars altogether, each upheld by a single banyan branch.

This Star Demon Tree stood tall in the starry sky, occasionally flashing with the cursed killing light of the Netherworld.

Even if the Jiaoming Emperor were to return to his Ancestor Star, he might hesitate to approach now.

This place had become a deathtrap rooted by a Star Demon Tree—a dark green banyan swaying in the stars, devouring boundless Heavenly Earth Spiritual Qi.

Under its shadow, nine resplendent primary stars and 3,600 gleaming All Heavens stars emitted an aura that could strike fear even into many Harmonization God Monarchs.

“The Immortal Sect’s defensive system in the Netherworld is taking shape…”

Jiang Ding muttered to himself.

Surveying his surroundings, the Sun Star Formation Node at the Great Sun Heavenly Pond was already veiled by ink-green banyan branches. These seemingly chaotic branches and leaves all grew in precise array patterns, forming a terrifying formation that blurred the lines between living being and inanimate object.

This multitude of overlaps further elevated the Immortal Sect’s combat prowess in the Harmonization Stage.

“Haha, though still lacking!”

Wanji True Venerable laughed heartily but lamented shortly after, “The Central Array Spirit Computer has only reached the pinnacle of Refining Void Rules—quasi-Seventh Rank. Even with such vast spiritual power, it remains restrained below the Harmonization Stage. The bottleneck persists… it still requires analysis of a Harmonization Stage Divine Soul.”

“A Harmonization Stage Divine Soul. Capturing one would be ideal!”

Wanji True Venerable’s head was a computer screen, beneath which lay a gaunt frame with randomly flailing mechanical arms.

He wielded the Light Path Rules to master rapid information transmission and warship control, embodying the heart of the Citizen Fleet of millions. War machines, battleships, air-space motherships, and starry sky fortresses were spread throughout the starfield.

Though numbered in the millions, the Citizen Fleet was but an extension of himself.

Through formations, infinite power converged into Wanji True Venerable, exuding an immensely fearsome aura—a stark contrast to his solitary Refining Void baseline state.

“A Harmonization Divine Soul…”

On the Sun Star Formation Node, Jiang Ding’s gaze fixed on the epicenter of the Harmonization Thunder Tribulation.

On eight other glowing stars, other gazes similarly locked onto the heart of the tribulation.

Amid endless flashes of destructive lightning, an elderly man stood with wild hair flying in disarray, bathing in the Heavenly Tribulation.

His current aura was unimaginably terrifying. He had completely transcended the boundaries of Refining Void Rules, stepping into an entirely new realm. While his Divine Soul still resided within his body, it seemed to have detached from everything else.

Unmoved by external joys or personal sorrows,

he had become one with the Heavenly Dao itself. Within his thoughts, billions of Heavenly Dao Law Nets formed, ethereal and ghostly.

His Divine Soul had already imprinted itself onto the Heavenly Dao!

The Xuanwu Heavenly Palace Great Power of this moment was indisputably a Harmonization God Monarch!
