Bombarding Cultivators with Cluster Artillery

Chapter 1666: Chapter 1634: The Blood and Flesh Demon Puppet Immortal Tao Industrial Revolution of the Immortal Artifact Sect

The Six Dao Reincarnation envelops the cultivator’s Divine Soul, imprinting the entirety of the cultivator’s life, and then quietly departs, leaving nothing changed.

Jiang Ding fixed his gaze on the eighteen Golden Core level Blood and Flesh Puppets surrounding the red-haired man and took a careful look.

”Two thousand years ago, there was a fierce struggle between the ’Dead Puppet Sect’ and the ’Living Puppet Sect’ within the Immortal Artifact Sect, a conflict so intense that even Heavenly Men shed blood, nearly resulting in their downfall...”

Jiang Ding slowly recalled the events of two thousand years ago.

At that time, he annihilated all the top sect Refining Nothingness cultivators in the Thunder Flame Domain, who were intricately connected with the Immortal Artifact Sect, thereby acquiring a wealth of intelligence.

”It seems that the internal factional disputes within the Immortal Artifact Sect have finally reached a conclusion.”

”The fusion of living and dead puppets, how brutal it is.”

”In this, the human social ethics and emotions almost do not exist, even the malicious and evil nature of the Demon Sect does not exist; it’s as if they were inhuman, lacking emotion...”

Jiang Ding stood above the Cause and Effect of the mortal world, not mingling or altering anything.

Yet, he couldn’t help but feel a bit saddened, and sighed.

Even if adversarial, isn’t it a human sect?

Although the Demon Sect, should it not represent the evils and desires of humanity?

But now the Immortal Artifact Sect...

Jiang Ding observed the eighteen Golden Core level Blood and Flesh Puppets, noticing that their bodies were implanted with metal rods, wooden strips, vines, and Yellow and Red Spiritual Soil, replacing parts of their original bones, meridians, and flesh, greatly enhancing the power of these Golden Core monks.

No, the power of these Foundation Establishment Peak cultivators.

This Golden Core Blood and Flesh Puppet was originally just a Foundation-building cultivator with a somewhat resilient Divine Soul. Through various fires and waters, his meridians, bones, and elixir field were all replaced by terrifying Immortal Path blood puppet techniques, increasing his power dozens of times, turning him into a Golden Core Initial Stage combatant.

He was still alive.

His Divine Soul was refined with the souls of his children, parents, and tens of thousands of clan members, continuously distilled until his own Divine Soul also swelled immensely. Ultimately, with a Foundation-building soul, he successfully controlled the Golden Core body, truly a masterpiece of ghostly craftsmanship, containing extremely frightening Immortal Path puppet techniques.

This puppet was still alive.

He could actively cooperate with the Array Master to unleash formidable strength, significantly reducing the burden of control, allowing even the red-haired man, someone not particularly skilled in Formation Dao, to easily control eighteen Golden Core puppets, plus tens of thousands of Foundation Building Qi Refining puppets, exerting power far beyond his usual capabilities.

Most importantly, the raw materials were renewable and costs were low.

Yes, these Blood and Flesh Puppets contained highly advanced Immortal Path technology, but still their cost was low, and the refining process was not necessarily complex!

The Immortal Artifact Sect must have made some breakthrough in puppet technology over these two thousand years.

”If that is indeed the case, then the failure of the Great Yin Yang Sword Realm might be understandable...”

Jiang Ding murmured to himself and quietly left.

...

The lifetime of the red-haired Golden Core monk from the Demon Puppet Sect unfolded in the Six Dao Reincarnation.

He was born into a Nascent Soul family with the surname Li in the Red River Domain of the Immortal Artifact Sect. As the son of the clan leader, codenamed Li Jiusanqi, he was the strongest among the progeny of the Li family’s patriarch. Only he survived due to his exceptional talent and favorable fortune.

The remaining children were all refined into Blood and Flesh Puppets or became materials for Blood and Flesh Puppets, or were turned into many productive Blood and Flesh Puppets, such as small components of large automated artifact refining treasures.

Many Foundation-building and Qi Refining Blood and Flesh Puppets were manufactured by such massive, worm-like large-scale automated artifact refining treasures, low-cost, high-efficiency, with long service life, consuming very few Spirit Stones, and could even autonomously absorb Heavenly Earth Spiritual Qi to recover, boasting many advantages over traditional puppets.

There were also many large-scale automated seeding treasures, large-scale automated alchemy treasures, large-scale automated talisman-making treasures...

In every aspect of the Immortal Artifact Sect, the application of Blood and Flesh Puppet treasures greatly liberated productivity.

In Jiang Ding’s rational assessment, the Immortal Artifact Sect essentially initiated a ’Blood and Flesh Puppet Immortal Tao Industrial Revolution’!

From the official birth and proliferation of the Blood and Flesh Puppet technology in the Immortal Artifact Sect ten thousand years ago, the production of Spirit Stones, Elixirs, and Heavenly Material and Earthly Treasures in each Domain and Minor Thousand World doubled with rapid growth.

The coffers of the upper echelon quickly filled up, and material resources became extremely abundant.

This war between the Immortal Artifact Sect and the Great Yin Yang Sword Realm in the Golden Sea Domain was just like this.

The overwhelming Immortal Artifact Sect Blood and Flesh Puppet Taoist Soldiers were endless, collaborating seamlessly, fearless and sacrificial, even able to form large formations, manipulated by top-tier experts, influencing the outcome of top-level battles.

They were like a massive blood war machine, crushing the Great Yin Yang Sword Realm’s defending army, reclaiming the Domains seized by the Great Yin Yang Sword Realm over millennia.

Now in the Upper Realm, the reputation of the Immortal Artifact Sect’s ’Blood and Flesh Sky Demon Puppet Taoist Soldiers’ was shaking all directions, drawing the attention and apprehension of various Immortal Sects and quasi-immortal clans. The Thunder Sun Heavenly Sword Realm, initially preparing to send troops to aid the Immortal Artifact Sect due to an alliance, had even slowed their reinforcement.

Blood and Flesh Puppets,

this is a technology capable of profoundly altering the Upper Realm’s situation.

So what is the cost?

The fate of the red-haired Golden Core man has been a clear testament.

Starting from small local families, aside from a select few with the most outstanding talent, all cultivators must be refined into Blood and Flesh Puppets or components of a large treasure, living out their lives only to be discarded and replaced with new Blood and Flesh Puppet components upon depletion.

And the red-haired Golden Core cultivator, who emerged from among countless contemporaries, escaped his destiny?

No.

He remained within a new destiny, though he might be unaware.

Yet, at some appropriate moment, he would become a higher-grade blood component, used in more sophisticated Blood and Flesh Puppets of the Immortal Artifact Sect, perhaps a Nascent Soul level Blood and Flesh puppet, or even a Divinity Transformation Blood and Flesh Puppet.

Thus, if projected further, what would be the fate of the numerous Refining Void and Integration cultivators whom all Immortal Artifact Sect cultivators revere?

Would they be exempted from such a fate?

The red-haired Golden Core cultivator’s memories contained too little to make an effective deduction.

”The Upper Realm, the waters run deep.”

”No matter my abhorrence, the Immortal Artifact Sect has, in substance, initiated an Immortal Tao technical industrial revolution, unprecedentedly boosting productivity...”

Jiang Ding felt a surge of dread.

He inexplicably sensed that the battle between the Great Yin Yang Sword Realm and the Immortal Artifact Sect would inevitably escalate further, with more Heavenly Man battles, even Near Immortal level clashes possibly emerging, making this place increasingly perilous.

He must leave as soon as possible!

Even if some risks needed to be taken, he must leave swiftly.

Jiang Ding hesitated no longer, supremely enhancing the Six Paths Concealing Power, and flew straight toward the center of the Golden Sea Domain.

A Refining Nothingness cultivator’s departure from the Domain would undoubtedly cause celestial phenomena, a rule in the Upper Realm which cannot be waived!

Therefore, he required a Refining Nothingness cultivator, a heinous one deserving death, who would then exit the Golden Sea Domain and naturally trigger a celestial phenomenon.

Everything would appear perfectly normal, not attracting any further attention.
