Bombarding Cultivators with Cluster Artillery

Chapter 1525: Chapter 1493: Admission Letter from the Xianmen Sect Military Academy

The practitioners of the Eight Great Immortal Sects hesitated for a long time, struggled for a long time.

Gradually, Jiang Ding’s expression returned to calmness.

Clang!

He drew his sword.

With one stroke, a billion beams of light bloomed, falling upon the Divinity Transformation and Refining Nothingness cultivators of the Eight Great Immortal Sects, each receiving a wisp of Sword Qi.

This slight wisp of Sword Qi fell on Dingding Venerable and other cultivators, instantly unleashing tremendous power.

“Puff!”

“No, without the ancestor’s order, I will never surrender…”

Dingding Venerable was struck by a wisp of Sword Qi, as if struck by lightning, struggling desperately, but ultimately unable to resist, his Divine Soul suppressed, fainted, losing all consciousness.

“Disciples, follow me to kill!”

This was a Refining Nothingness cultivator from the Five Elements Heavenly Sect, refusing to surrender, leading many disciples in a desperate charge, ultimately struck by a wisp of Sword Qi, fainting powerlessly, unable to be revived.

“Kill…”

The Refining Nothingness from Shadow Demon Abyss attempted to escape, waiting for the future, also struck by a Sword Qi and captured.

And the Refining Nothingness of the Green Wood Immortal Sect, without a word, fainted as soon as he touched the Sword Qi…

In this way, every cultivator of the Eight Great Immortal Sects gave their utmost effort.

Unfortunately, they really couldn’t resist.

They were captured, each receiving the admission notice for the temporary training class of the Immortal Sect Military Academy.

Jiang Ding glanced at them, then turned and left.

Before the great powers of the Eight Great Immortal Sects died, these people from the Immortal Sect wouldn’t be taken lightly.

The great powers of the Eight Great Immortal Sects still retained formidable strength; it wouldn’t be good to push them to a dead end, turning them into loners, loose cultivators.

At that time, the eight formidable ones without any ties would be enough to plunge any force into distress, possibly turning prosperity to decline, leading to extinction.

Not to mention, those eight would never engage in a decisive battle, just targeting the subsidiary forces of the Immortal Sect, slaughtering and massacring, fleeing as soon as the main fleet arrived, who could withstand this?

This is entirely a lose-lose situation.

Such powerful individuals, before they die, must have ties and attachments; otherwise, the competition would become a bottomless one, with no winners.

…

Decades later, the Ancient Divine Domain Passage Array, built with immense human and material resources and massive Heavenly Material and Earthly Treasure by the Immortal Sect, was completely established.

These expenses further accelerated the arrival of the Immortal Sect’s economic crisis.

Economic crisis!

It is estimated that in about two hundred years, the Immortal Sect’s economy will encounter numerous blowouts, the entire economic system paralyzed, education, military, research, and other fields will come to a halt, many companies will close down, citizens will have no work, forced to stay at home, cultivation will completely cease.

——But they can still afford to eat.

Just can’t cultivate.

The entire Immortal Sect is out of Spirit Stones, not a single one left, which for an Immortal Tao Civilization, is almost no different from mortals losing jobs and starving to death.

On this day, the first, second, and third front armies of the Immortal Sect officially declared war on the Netherworld Black Sky Crane Clan, one of the seven primitive races of the Alliance of Ten Thousand Clans, citing the slaughter of the Human Race, heinous crimes, and then advanced.

There was no other reason, purely because the Netherworld Black Sky Crane was the closest, and this race owned the Three Domains land, enough to satisfy the short-term expansion needs of the Immortal Sect.

“Great Sun, I leave this to you.”

Yuan solemnly said.

“Marshal, I will not fail the mission.”

Jiang Ding bowed in reply.

This wasn’t about boosting morale or confidence but stating facts to some extent.

He had the ability to instantly advance to Refining Void Stage.

If willing to consume some foundation, he could completely advance to Refining Void, and along with the Ninth Front Army and the fixed seventh-order supreme array, even if the great powers of the Eight Great Immortal Sects besiege personally, they wouldn’t be able to breach this place within dozens of days, fully able to wait for the Immortal Sect’s reinforcements to cross domains via super transmission array.

“Hahaha, it’s good to have confidence.”

Yuan laughed heartily and said, “But, when encountering an irresistible enemy, you must retreat. When a person is there, the land is there; when a person is lost, all is lost, remember this point.”

“As long as the citizens are still here, and remain united, everything will come in the future.”

“Understood.”

Jiang Ding also smiled: “Wishing everyone, a triumphant return.”

“Naturally.”

Yuan waved his hand, indicating Jiang Ding not to escort further, then boarded the flagship Free Immortal Sect, leading the Central Group Army into the endless darkness of deep space in the domain.

Wanji True Venerable’s Third Front Army, Divine Machine True Venerable’s Second Front Army fleet accompanied on two wings, an implicit resonance between the army formations.

The expedition of tens of billions of Citizen Fleet began.

At this moment, the Foundation-building cultivators in the fleet had already entered a state of slumber, which would last for several hundred years before the Immortal Sect fleet would reach the ruling center of the Netherworld Black Sky Crane, the Black Sky Realm of the Medium Thousand World, and launch an attack.

There’s no other way; the domain is simply too vast, without a teleportation array, just traveling takes such a long time.

However, once reaching the Black Sky Realm, the situation will improve significantly, being closer to the center of the Ancient Divine Domain, with the density of Life Worlds greatly increased, more prosperous, possibly taking only a few years, or a few decades to reach another domain.

Jiang Ding watched this moment of the cosmic starry sky.

The finest troops of the Immortal Sect, all here, countless steel warships covering millions of kilometers of the starry sky, vast and terrifying auras, slowly delving into deep space, gradually distancing, gradually disappearing, vanishing from everyone’s sight and Divine Sense.

If there are no accidents, the next meeting may be hundreds of years later.

By then, if everything goes smoothly, the Immortal Sect would have already occupied a Medium Thousand World, successfully constructed a super transmission array, and restored the flow of materials with the rear.

Jiang Ding felt a wave of emotion, then calmed.

He withdrew his gaze and returned to the center of the massive array of the Ancient Divine Domain Passage Array, sat cross-legged in the cosmic starry sky, and the Taiqing Flying Sword burst from the ground, radiating light, with roots deeply embedded in space and the Heavenly Dao Rules, gathering Sun and Moon Essence and Heavenly Earth Spiritual Qi like a tidal wave, filtered layer by layer, absorbed into the Sword Master’s body.

These external Heavenly Earth Spiritual Qi and Sun and Moon Essence repeatedly tempered Jiang Ding’s newly born Law Body and tempered the Sword Soul, Mana, and Divine Sense, further consolidating the foundation.

After the battle at Hidden Sky Pavilion, Jiang Ding’s Swordsmanship and Sword Soul had somewhat grown, solidifying his self in the glory of blood battles.

Therefore, he could now further refine his Divine Soul and Mana beyond the limits of Xianmen’s Skill through a stronger Sword Soul, stronger Swordsmanship, and the further enhanced six Dao reincarnation structure.

This is about solidifying the foundation.

All this will not be in vain, and when he advances to the Void Refinement Realm in the future, he will be stronger.

Moreover, due to his deep foundation, he won’t be stuck in the early Refining Void Stage for too long; possibly just a few decades, his Law Body adapting, can automatically break into the Mid-stage Void Refining, saving the cultivation time of thousands of years in the Refining Void Stage, offering high cost-effectiveness.
