Bombarding Cultivators with Cluster Artillery

Chapter 1531: Chapter 1499: The Assassination of the Shadow Demon God Monarch

“Indeed it is so.”

Yuan thought for a moment and felt it made sense.

However, unlike the arithmetic of one plus one equals two, which never changes, the field of social sciences is often too random, and therefore, even if the probability of such a situation is small, it is necessary to be prepared.

This world has treaties in place.

If these Alliance of Ten Thousand Clans God Monarchs are suddenly forced into a dead end, they might go to desperate measures.

For now, it should be safe.

“Jin Liu, how is the economy of the Xianmen Sect?”

Yuan asked.

“Very bad.”

“Economic depression, economic collapse, companies going bankrupt in droves, workers unemployed, most schools halting all teaching that requires the consumption of Spirit Stones or Spiritual Energy… everything has come to a standstill.”

Jin Liu Venerable said heavily, “In the past century, the Xianmen Sect has produced fewer Foundation-building cultivators than one ten-thousandth of the previous century, and even Beidou Qingfeng University’s graduates find it somewhat difficult to establish their foundation, let alone ordinary schools.”

“This generation of Immortal Sect Citizens has had their paths delayed.”

“The only fortunate thing is that, due to prior preparations and an abundance of food, there has been no chaos in society, no incidents of looting, smashing, or arson, and all research, production work is merely temporarily shelved; everything is still there.”

“As long as a large amount of funds is invested, these can all be restarted.”

All of Xianmen Sect’s funds are invested in the life-or-death war; it can be said that everyone is living on credit, and everyone is impoverished.

For instance, Jiang Ding, he purchased a large amount of Immortal Sect Ancient Divine Domain national debt, with all his funds invested above, leaving very little else.

Don’t look at how wealthy he appears on paper, with countless Harmonization battle merits, seventh-order and sixth-order heavenly materials piling up like mountains and still growing continuously.

In reality, this is all just data on paper.

If Xianmen Sect were defeated, he would instantly go bankrupt, with nearly ten thousand years of savings turning to nothing.

Of course, if the Xianmen Sect were defeated, these things would be doomed anyway; even if he didn’t buy the Immortal Sect Ancient Divine Domain national debt, it would be the same.

“This generation of kids has suffered.”

Yuan let out a slight sigh.

“Fortunately, the situation is better now.”

“We are resuming production activities in the Demon Heaven Domain, and there are many spoils we can send back to the rear; Xianmen Sect’s various armament factories, schools, military schools, research institutions… all need to be restored promptly.”

Yuan commanded.

“Furthermore, the rear should send more administrative personnel and recruit troops to suppress the rear; we cannot let the field troops handle these tasks.”

“Also, the Xianmen Sect should establish an industrial logistics base near the Demon Heaven Realm to avoid the transport loss across multiple large domains…”

“Understood…”

Jin Liu Venerable noted these frontline suggestions.

It is expected that after another thirty years, the super realm teleportation formation of the Demon Heaven Domain will be completed, and then material and personnel exchanges between the Xianmen Sect and the frontline will commence immediately.

“In a century, we will be able to continue attacking the next domain…”

“Furthermore…”

Many Immortal Sect Void Refining Practitioners spoke one after another, covering military, logistics, personnel, transportation, scientific research, diplomacy, and all other aspects.

An overlord-level influence across multiple domains is rapidly completing internal integration, continuously expanding outward.

…

Time passed leisurely.

Unknowingly, more than a hundred years have passed.

On this day, as the urgent sound of the Xianmen Star Domain level Spirit Element Radar rang out, and a cold premonition continued to emerge in his heart, Jiang Ding suddenly awakened from his cultivation.

He opened his eyes and looked towards the Ninth Front Army’s outer formation.

Here, an imperceptible shadow had somehow appeared and was slowly moving towards the center.

“Finally, this day…”

Jiang Ding’s heart stirred.

In his heart, there arose a strong greed, a desire to further lure this thin shadow deeper into the Ninth Front Army Formation and the Realm Passage Array to complete a further encirclement.

By then, there might even be hope to slay it!

Unfortunately, this greed was immediately interrupted.

“Enemy attack!”

“There is a Harmonization level entity lurking!”

Sun Destroying True Venerate and others were taken aback. When the Army Formation did not trigger instantly, they were furious and looked towards the center of the formation: “Great Sun! What on earth are you doing?”

“Attack!”

“Immediately! At once!”

This was not an admonition but the discipline of the Xianmen Army, a mandatory order made by the collective will of the Ninth Front Army Military Committee fleet.

“…Yes!”

Jiang Ding said very shamefully.

Buzz!

At this moment, the Six Paths of Reincarnation Magnetic Space Array of the Xianmen Sect Ninth Front Army operated and unfolded, spreading across the heavens and earth, forming six primordial magnet worlds, which were not weak even among the Harmonization Stage.

Simultaneously, the Seventh-Order Top-Grade Realm Passage Array deployed here also unfolded, further strengthening this formation method.

This massive starry sky army formation generated billions of strands of Yuan Magnetic Sword Qi, converging through the Six Paths of Reincarnation to strike on that tiny shadow.

Boom!

The starry sky spanning tens of thousands of kilometers instantly turned to ashes, and the Heavenly Dao Law Net collapsed because of it.

Only a wisp of shadow flashed away from the center of the destruction, disappeared, and was not harmed in the joint strike of the army formation.

“Shadow Demon God Monarch…”

Jiang Ding felt some joy in his heart.

This was the Shadow Demon Abyss’s great expert, the Shadow Demon God Monarch attempting an assassination!

Unfortunately, he failed.

However, the foreboding in Jiang Ding’s heart did not diminish at all; instead, it grew increasingly chilling, as across the heavens and earth, throughout the cosmos, there was nothing but a cold killing intent, with the shadowy hell about to descend and devour all beings.

“Danger!”

Sun Destroying True Venerate and others felt chills in their hearts, as if falling into an ice cave, their eyes showing layers of illusions.

The Nine Spirits Realm’s Immortal Sect’s Harmonization God Monarch!

Based on their despicableness and shamelessness, it’s unlikely that only one Shadow Demon God Monarch would come alone; the other seven, by convention, have also appeared.

Even if the Xianmen Sect arranged a seventh-order supreme array at the realm passage, it would be hopeless to resist them!

Even saying, just holding on for several tens of days until the Central Group Army comes to aid would be immensely difficult, because these eight experts are too formidable.

“It’s truly interesting…”

Jiang Ding murmured.

He took a step, stood in the sky, and countless military formation runes intertwined.

Boom!

In the cosmic starry sky, a sudden thunderclap resounded.

Endless rolling dark clouds swept over, covering an area of hundreds of thousands of kilometers, with the aura of yang and destruction enveloping all around, instantly dispelling all the cold within the cosmos.

The overwhelming killing intent disappeared instantly.

At this moment, across all four corners of the cosmos, eight extremely strong emotional fluctuations appeared and then vanished in a flash.

After a long silence.

They retreated, realizing it was of no avail.

Jiang Ding shook his head subtly.

Clang!

He drew his sword, splitting the sky full of dark clouds with one strike, creating a passage through the forming clouds.

At the same time, he retracted his aura to the extreme, becoming as still as wood or stone.

A moment later, Jiang Ding silently sensed his state.

In two hundred years, his Mana and Divine Sense would reach their current limit.
