Bombarding Cultivators with Cluster Artillery

Chapter 1352: Chapter 1320: Immortal Tao Industry Technology Spreads to Many Minor Thousand Worlds

The Great Sun Heavenly Pond shrunk its form and traversed the skies of the Magic Vine Minor Realm, inspecting the earth, surveying the myriad beings of the Minor Thousand World that had been under Xianmen Sect’s rule for over a thousand years.

“Paying respects to the Great Sun Celestial Lord!”

“Congratulations on your victorious return from the millennial war, laying the foundation for Xianmen Sect’s ten millennia of prosperity!”

In the Sun Abyss, a large gathering of Immortal Sect Nascent Soul Cultivators and Minor Thousand World Divinity Transformation Cultivators performed grand salutes.

Each wore expressions of joy and elation. The younger generation of Xianmen Sect observed with admiration and reverence, as if beholding a living monument, an ancient relic.

This was the hero of the current age for Xianmen Sect.

A figure worthy of being immortalized in history books, occupying several pages of their chronicles—an unparalleled hero of this era!

As for the Minor Thousand World Divinity Transformation Cultivators, they felt deep awe, not daring to harbor even a single stray thought in their hearts.

Those with exemplary moral character, such as Hua Teng and Huo Baosan among the Divinity Transformation Cultivators, had no trace of inappropriate thoughts at all. While expressing their excited congratulations, their gazes carried a fervent anticipation as a sudden desire burned hot within their hearts.

“Please rise, everyone.”

“The victory of this war is not my achievement alone but that of billions of citizens. Let us not overemphasize the role of any individual in the conflict.”

Jiang Ding laughed heartily, issuing repeated reminders in earnest.

Below, the civil administrators and military generals from various territories of the Minor Thousand World, knowing that the Great Sun Celestial Lord disliked excessive formalities, quickly stood up straight.

A series of gift boxes automatically opened and flew to each Nascent Soul Immortal and Divinity Transformation Cultivator present.

“It has been many years since we last met; I even feel some longing.”

“Here are a few small gifts for all of you—a token of celebration.”

As Jiang Ding gazed down at the many cultivators below, a sense of nostalgia welled up in his heart.

Most of the Immortal Sect Nascent Soul Cultivators who had once accompanied him to pacify the Horned Ming Realm had perished, lost to the sands of time. The small handful of survivors had either ascended to the Divinity Transformation Stage or were simply not present here.

Jiang Ding found himself unfamiliar with all of the current Immortal Sect Nascent Soul Cultivators present. He would need to refer to the dossiers provided by the Xianmen Sect to discern who was who—they were all strangers to him.

However, their thoughts, values, and perspectives on life were similar to his own, leaving no significant divide between them.

As for the Minor Thousand World Divinity Transformation Cultivators, they remained largely unchanged, both in nature and in numbers—still numbering only a few dozen, with an increase of merely seven or eight over the millennium.

When the cultivators saw the gifts before them, their breathing collectively halted.

The gifts before the Immortal Sect Nascent Soul Cultivators were Fifth-rank top-grade Sky Blue Refining Spirit Pills—a full bottle of them. These pills could refine mana and slightly increase the probability of achieving Divinity Transformation. With six pills per bottle, their value rivaled several pieces of God-Transformation phase Heavenly Material and Earthly Treasure.

In front of the Minor Thousand World Divinity Transformation Cultivators lay unrefined Heavenly Material and Earthly Treasure. Each item was a Fifth-rank lower-grade material specifically suited to its recipient. Shimmering with spiritual light, these materials were among the finest of their grade.

In terms of value, the gifts for the Immortal Sect Nascent Soul Cultivators were naturally higher. However, both belonged to the same tier.

Embedded within this arrangement was a subtle political message—a reflection of the Xianmen Sect’s long-standing policy of granting Minor Thousand World cultivators a degree of respect, upholding their dignity rather than demeaning them.

Upon meeting, Jiang Ding distributed hundreds of spirit items of the Divinity Transformation tier, leaving the Minor Thousand World’s Divinity Transformation Cultivators nearly breathless.

With the Xianmen Sect’s rising prominence and rapidly expanding power, Jiang Ding’s personal wealth had also surged to extraordinary levels, making him one of the wealthiest figures even among Refining Nothingness Cultivators. Such gifts held no particular significance to him.

“Thank you, Celestial Lord, for your generosity!”

The gathered cultivators were elated and expressed their gratitude in unison.

“There’s no need for such formality.”

Jiang Ding waved his hand with a smile.

He said no more, his gaze passing through the Great Sun Heavenly Pond, falling upon the lands below, observing the various clans and tribes of the Minor Thousand Worlds, paying attention to their lives, cultivation, farming, and military service.

The Nascent Soul Immortals of Xianmen and the Minor Thousand World’s Divinity Transformation Cultivators held their breath, quietly standing by, not daring to interrupt.

…

Jiang Ding’s gaze fell upon a settlement of the Rabbit Tribe.

No, calling it a “settlement” seemed outdated and no longer appropriate. Its proper designation was the Red River Rabbit Town.

This small town, with a population of several thousand, bore none of the savage and primitive air of a tribal settlement. Instead, red-brick houses aligned in neat rows, and a small river ran through the town’s center, spanned by a quaint bridge connecting its eastern and western sides.

The town’s primary inhabitants were members of the Rabbit Tribe, comprising more than ninety percent of the population, with the remainder being residents of the Fox Tribe, Tiger Clan, Human Race, and others.

Yes, members of the Tiger Clan and Fox Tribe also resided here.

These residents consumed meat, raising pigs, cows, and sheep. The impoverished among them caught frogs, fish, and loaches, although such cases were rare. This was because Tiger Clan and Fox Tribe members with spiritual intelligence—classified as demons—were all cultivators, at least at the First Level of Qi Practicing, possessing both mana and Divine Sense.

Such power allowed them to make a living, even from the roughest of labors, to secure a steady diet of meat.

To enjoy even finer meals with spiritual flesh, however, one would need skills that contributed to the Immortal Tao Industry.

For instance, several Tiger Clan cultivators residing in Red River Rabbit Town possessed proficient First-order White Frost Grass planting skills. Without such skills, they would not have chosen to settle here.

First-order White Frost Grass.

This was a raw material for the top-grade Qi Condensing Pills produced by the Xianmen Education Department. These pills were in high demand, distributed as foundational benefits to Xianmen Sect cultivators below grade seven. Consequently, optimal spirit lands in the Minor Thousand Worlds were dedicated to its cultivation.

Indeed, even mortal martial artists of the Xianmen Sect received top-grade spirit pills as basic welfare.

The privileges granted to the denizens of the Domain Overlord were not mere rhetoric; their benefits were astoundingly generous.

Red River Rabbit Town was one such base for cultivating First-order White Frost Grass. The annual production by Rabbit Tribe, Fox Tribe, and Tiger Clan cultivators directly affected their compensation and cultivation resources.

Jiang Ding’s gaze shifted toward the town’s mayor.

This was a Seventh Level of Qi Practicing Bull Clan cultivator named Niu Baishi. His wife, Niu Hua, bore him three sons and one daughter. This year marked his fifty-seventh year of Qi Ling awakening. He graduated from the South Immortal Path Vocational and Technical University of the Magic Vine Minor Realm under Xianmen Sect and had served as an officer in Huangtu Fox Town, deputy mayor, and later mayor of Red River Rabbit Town, a post he had held for sixteen years.

The dossier from the Organization Department described him as diligent in his duties, morally upright, and loyal to the Xianmen Sect, delivering exceptional governance wherever he served. As a result, he had become a priority focus for the Organization Department of the Magic Vine Minor Realm, with considerable prospects for future promotion to the Foundation Establishment level.

Fifty-seven years since his Qi Ling awakening meant he had possessed spiritual intelligence for fifty-seven years.

Before he became a demon, he was merely a beast with no rights—a fact acknowledged by both the Human Race and the Demon Race, who did not consider beasts as equals.

The Southern Immortal Path Vocational and Technical University under Xianmen accepted only Minor Thousand World cultivators. Its purpose was to cultivate more productive individuals from the Ten Thousand Clans, providing Xianmen Sect with greater resources while nurturing a loyal class of strong individuals dedicated to the sect.

This was part of the vision Jiang Ding had conceived in past years, now brought to fruition.

“His moral character score is approximately one hundred and twelve points.”

Jiang Ding’s Divine Sense swept over Niu Baishi, focusing on his Divine Soul to estimate his moral character score using the Xianmen Sect’s Morality Detection Magic.

For Jiang Ding to personally use this on a Qi Practitioner greatly increased the accuracy of the estimate, exceeding even the judgment of the subordinate branch of the Divine Wood Sky-Covering Rong tree in the Magic Vine Minor Realm, leaving a minimal margin of error.

One hundred and twelve points.

This score was not low—it indeed classified Niu Baishi as someone who genuinely supported the Xianmen Sect. There was no mistake.
