Bombarding Cultivators with Cluster Artillery

Chapter 1341: Chapter 1309: Three Hundred Million Citizens’ Collective Sudden Enlightenment

A dark green banyan tree rooted deeply within the Medium Thousand World, its branches swaying rhythmically beyond the crystalline barrier, summoned boundless Heavenly Earth Spiritual Qi and the endless radiance of the sun, moon, and stars amidst the gathering storm clouds of a heavenly tribulation.

It possessed the ability to directly transform spiritual energy from the Chaos, and this power far surpassed that of any previous Harmonization God Monarchs in this domain.

The Heavenly Earth Spiritual Qi surged like a violent storm, like torrents and tsunamis, gushing into the world and slightly raising the spiritual energy concentration of the entire realm in an instant.

More importantly, this elevation was ongoing and ceaseless.

This phenomenon was awe-inspiring. A mere spirit tree was able to trigger such a dramatic change in the vast Medium Thousand World’s spiritual energy concentration, rejuvenating all its creatures, flora, and spiritual medicines with newfound vitality and growth.

And yet, this sight was commonplace to all the Xianmen cultivators.

The existence of the Divine Wood Sky Covering Rong had turned the mother world from a weak spiritual ecology a million years ago into the Nine Spirits Realm’s sacred cultivation ground. Now, with its recent advancement to the Harmonization Stage, its ability to regulate the flow of Heavenly Earth Spiritual Qi and transform Chaos had vastly multiplied, rendering the entire world even more habitable.

Amid the relentless storm clouds, an oceanic torrent of Heavenly Earth Spiritual Qi roared forth, heralding another growth spurt for the Divine Wood Sky Covering Rong. Its branches extended further into the starry sky, while its roots burrowed deeply into the Earth’s crust, reaching magma layers and venturing into areas beyond the reach of any other life form.

This Medium Thousand World had been profoundly shaped by the Divine Wood Sky Covering Rong.

A dual-layered impact—both on the physical plane and the rules of the Heavenly Dao!

Even if the Eight Great Immortal Sects successfully drove out the Eastern Devil School, this world would never return to its original state. Even if the trunk of the Divine Wood Sky Covering Rong were felled, all of its branches and aerial roots uprooted and cut down, and countless Annihilation Spirit Techniques cast to render its trunk and roots lifeless, its life force would remain indomitable.

It would continue to grow within the Medium Thousand World, expanding its roots and accumulating power, awaiting the arrival of another Immortal Sect citizen to shelter and nurture to greatness once again.

“Though it has yet to achieve Harmonization, it already exhibits traits of that stage…”

Divine Machine True Venerate marveled aloud.

He carefully admired this brilliant technological artifact, a masterpiece forged from the collective wisdom and blood of countless citizens, beginning from the era of the first ruling Venerate.

Then, another change emerged.

Buzz!

Buzz buzz!

Vast surges of spiritual energy and the cosmic radiance of countless stars, the Great Sun, and the Taiyin Star amassed upon the crown of the tree, transforming the spiritual ecosystem of the world, birthing awe-inspiring phenomena—Earth Emergent Golden Lotus, Moon Rising Above the Sea, Immortal Mountain Divine Palaces, and many others.

Amidst these innumerable heavenly signs, an enormous expanse of spiritual energy condensed into liquid form, drizzling softly onto the ground, bestowing blessings upon all beings within the Medium Thousand World.

The Immortal Sect citizens, specially targeted by the Central Array Spirit Computer, naturally received the greatest benefits.

Countless Foundation Establishment Golden Pill and Nascent Soul cultivators broke through their limits silently, their foundations solidified and diseases and ailments accrued through years of cultivation instantly cured. Their Immortal Path potentials shifted, becoming exceptional.

In the Sea of Consciousness of the citizen monks, layers of comprehension surfaced, weaving tremendous opportunities akin to small-scale sudden enlightenment within the process of aligning destiny rules with the Heavenly Dao.

Three hundred million citizens collectively experienced enlightenment!

Was this even a challenge?

Before the divine might of the Harmonization God Monarch’s heavenly tribulation, such occurrences were insignificant, so trivial they were almost beneath notice.

Even the Great Powers of the Immortal Sects, if they so desired, could bestow such small-scale collective enlightenment to tens of thousands of people. It would simply require them to divert a portion of their Divine Soul computational power and expend some time and effort.

Immortal Sect Great Powers were equipped to achieve such feats.

However, they would never attempt this during their own critical Harmonization Heavenly Tribulations—taking unnecessary risks was out of the question. Even for their own children, they would not allow their focus to waver at such crucial junctures.

“I’ve broken through to the late Divinity Transformation stage!”

“Finally surpassed that brat—no longer stuck at the same realm.”

The Sun Extinguisher Heavenly Monarch stood amidst the spiritual energy rain, overwhelmed with joy and tears.

His aura fluctuated wildly for a moment, before stabilizing after his breakthrough to the late Divinity Transformation stage. Now, when bantering with his brothers, he could call himself a ‘Grand Divinity Cultivator’ or ‘Grand Divine Heavenly Monarch,’ distinguishing himself from those in the early and mid-stages of Divinity Transformation.

A few other Nascent Soul cultivators nearby similarly broke through to higher minor realms.

It was visible that the amount of spiritual energy rain surrounding each person varied—some received modest amounts, while others received abundant and even extraordinary amounts. This wasn’t a communal distribution.

With potent Divine Soul computational power, cultivators quickly deduced the relationship—these spiritual energy rains correlated strongly with Immortal Sect merit points.

This was surmised by Foundation Establishment Golden Pill and Nascent Soul cultivators.

Meanwhile, cultivators above the Nascent Soul stage clearly understood the logic behind it.

First, every citizen received a baseline share, even those guilty of crimes, as long as they hadn’t been stripped of their lifelong political rights.

Then, additional distribution was determined by accumulated merit points, moral conduct scores, contributions to scientific research, and the rewards from project achievements—the combination of these four factors dictated the allocation of enlightened spiritual energy rain stemming from the Harmonization Stage.

Sun Extinguisher Heavenly Monarch, Ling Feng Heavenly Monarch, Si Yan Heavenly Monarch, and others processed their portions of spiritual energy rain, then looked toward the center of the Immortal Sect Army Formation. As expected, they saw nine massive, dazzling torrents of spiritual energy rain, almost oceanic in presence.

Even within these nine vast torrents, discernible differences could be observed.

Among the five—Taoqing Venerable Sage, financial analyst Jin Liu Venerable, and others—their spiritual energy clusters varied in scale, but the disparities were not significant.

Above them, three comparably much larger oceanic torrents existed, each several times larger than the former group’s—those belonging to the Great Sun Celestial Lord, Wanji True Venerable, and Divine Machine True Venerate.

Finally, there lay a supermassive spiritual energy cluster—nearly five times the size of Jin Liu Venerable’s!

Undeniably, this belonged to Yue.

The Central Array Spirit Computer evidently held Yue, the current ruler and the revivalist behind the Immortal Sect’s glorious era, in the highest esteem.

“Revival ruler…”

Countless hearts surged with emotion, filled with admiration and reverence.

Among those present, individuals such as Si Yan Heavenly Monarch, Ling Feng Heavenly Monarch, Kuanglong Heavenly Monarch, Little Flower Heavenly Monarch, and other Immortal Sword Path Heavenly Monarchs gazed toward the green-clothed youth cocooned within the massive spiritual energy cluster.

His hand rested on the hilt of his sword, his aura steady yet steadily rising. His gaze was deep as the starry sky, concealing his thoughts.

“Haha.”

Jiang Ding was internally jubilant as he surveyed his Sea of Consciousness.

“My cultivation has risen, a wild stroke of fortune without a single hidden pitfall within.”

“At least according to Xianmen Sect’s current level of Immortal Technology.”

Within his Elixir Field, the mana line climbed steadily upward. The amount of spiritual energy he received—a cluster akin to what a hundred Divinity Transformation cultivators might use to elevate minor realms—allowed him to save a thousand years of effort and amass a thousand years’ worth of cultivation base.

“Eight hundred and seventy-four years remain until I can breakthrough to the late Divinity Transformation stage.”

Jiang Ding calculated.

Soon after, he entered a profound state of sudden enlightenment.

Numerous inspirations surrounding the structure of the Six Dao Reincarnation surfaced in his thoughts, with continual refinement leading them toward the order of Dao-level mastery.

Simultaneously, his swordsmanship surged dramatically, advancing swiftly from the middle Sword Realm into the late Sword Realm, setting sights toward the Sword Realm Peak and potential breakthroughs into higher Sword Realm skills.

Toward that realm known as the Sword Spirit Realm…
