Bombarding Cultivators with Cluster Artillery

Chapter 1881: Chapter 1849: The Compromise Between Politics and Sword Dao

Outside the Seven-Colored Realm Sea.

The tens of thousands of Seven Kills Immortal Palace’s army besieging here collapsed in an instant.

Dozens of Heavenly Humans, billions of Seven Kills Immortal Palace cultivators frantically fled in all directions, having lost all confidence. Various precious Seven Kills Banners toppled over, some even discarded, lying on the ground.

The intense demands of fear drove all the cultivators into a frenzied flight.

But the Seven Kills Daoist had never appeared.

Logically, this was impossible. This was his most elite Taoist soldiers, executing his orders to besiege here continuously, laying siege to the residence of the Pure Yang Sword Child, already at a heavy cost.

He could not simply forget about this battlefield and turn to other matters; it made no sense.

Yet, this irrational event had indeed occurred.

The Seven Kills Daoist, still had not appeared.

Even the Dari Swordsman had not found him.

Perhaps a cultivator from the Seven Kills Immortal Palace should have a Guiding Array ready, to bring the Seven Kills Daoist at a critical moment, suggesting he was not on this battlefield.

Now it seemed, he would not be coming back.

”Seven Kills! Seven Kills!”

”Weakling Magic Cultivators, disgracing the name of the Seven Kills Daoist.”

A whisper echoed simultaneously in the divine souls of all Seven Kills Immortal Palace’s Heavenly Human cultivators.

This whisper made their bodies thoroughly cold, impossible to hide from or ignore, only causing a growing, intense fear within their souls.

”Who?”

”Come out! Come out!”

So much so that they felt maddened, launching attacks all around in a frenzy, achieving nothing.

The cold terror drew nearer, accompanied by words.

”How can such ants defile my sword?”

”Yet, since sword cultivators exist in such a filthy world, they must have political positions, priorities to account for, it’s an unfortunate condition of life, pure sword Dao beliefs cannot be fully realized.”

The whisper grew clearer in the divine souls of all Seven Kills Immortal Palace’s Heavenly Humans, making them feel a premonition of something ominous.

”Thus, apart from the elder Black Death Daoist, out of twenty-three Heavenly Human Fellow Daoists, eleven should perish.”

”This is the compromise between my political stance and Dao heart.”

”Alas!”

”All beings must compromise, myself included.”

The eerie whisper, like the sound of a sword, fell into the ears of many Seven Kills Immortal Palace’s Heavenly Human cultivators.

Driving them nearly insane, no matter how their souls warned, they could not locate the source of danger, could only frantically wield their treasures, burn their mana, layer upon layer of protective shields appeared on their bodies, defensive magic, defensive divine soul attacks.

Clang!

Just at this moment.

A crisp sword chime sounded, like pearls falling onto a jade plate, crisp and melodious, like a guzheng’s string being plucked, eleven times.

Eleven chimes.

Thus it ended.

The sound fell.

Eleven Heavenly Human cultivators of the fleeing Seven Kills Immortal Palace suddenly froze.

”No...”

”No!”

”No, no, no...”

They screamed miserably, growling with unwillingness, yet could do nothing, not even wield the millions of Forbidden Seven Kills Banners refined from the blood and souls of countless powerful beings.

A Mystic Gold Flying Sword, appearing unknowingly, lodged itself in their foreheads, pinning their divine souls and heads.

These eleven Mystic Gold Flying Swords appeared unbeknownst.

Only known to be extremely sharp, extremely precise, piercing the protective magic and defensive treasures of the eleven Heavenly Human cultivators at their weakest points with Harmonization level flying sword sword qi, penetrating their divine souls and skulls, instantaneously destroying their divine souls, no possibility of resurrection remained.

This was the Dari Swordsman’s compromise on political stance.

Whether helpless or not, political stance is indeed an inseparable part of a being, no one lives in a vacuum.

This is Dao heart.

Thud!

Thud!

One by one, the Seven Kills Immortal Palace’s Heavenly Human cultivators fell to the ground like dead dogs, their divine souls extinguished, losing all vitality.

All Seven Kills Immortal Palace cultivators who witnessed this scene fled frantically, losing all rationality.

Including the strongest Heavenly Human of the Seven Kills Immortal Palace, the Black Death Heavenly Person.

”Pure Yang...”

”Pure Yang Sword Child...”

His teeth chattering, he burned his essence blood and soul, fleeing without looking back towards the Seven Kills Immortal Palace, no longer daring to regroup the army.

...

”You succeeded?”

Jiang Ding glanced outside, then looked at the white-robed woman in front of him.

”Yes, Young Master.”

”In the end, relying on your sword qi, I succeeded in advancing to Harmonization.”

Gong Caiyu exclaimed excitedly, ”And now I am very powerful. If I can control the Taoist Soldier Formation of the Tushan Maids, I would possess Heavenly Human level strength, enough to oversee a world community on your behalf.”

”As you grow stronger, I will too.”

”I will be the elite among the maids!”

She declared proudly.

”Good.”

”I am very pleased.”

Jiang Ding nodded slightly, closing his eyes, falling into cultivation.

The palace returned to eternal silence.

Gong Caiyu felt a bit disheartened but also accustomed, standing by his side handling various governmental affairs, especially recovering the many domains after the defeat of the Seven Kills Immortal Palace’s army.

Production and the establishment of a governance system must proceed quickly, lest numerous power vacuums cause issues, further affecting the Dari Swordsman’s wealth accumulation.

Jiang Ding closed his eyes, cultivating while receiving various Great Yin-Yang Sword Realm’s secret intelligence from the Seven-Colored Realm Sea.

These confidential reports were only accessible to the Pure Yang Sword Child, not even to Gong Caiyu, let alone the Yang Bone Heavenly Person, not deemed top-secret readers by the Great Yin-Yang Sword Realm.

Jiang Ding meticulously read through these secret reports.

”...The master of the Heavenly Illusion Immortal Butterfly Clan seems to have reached an agreement with several Immortal Sects of the Human Race, where the new Immortal Sects of the Human Race will ignore the unification of the Demon Race by the Heavenly Illusion Immortal Butterfly Clan, and vice versa.”

”... Two masters faced off against four Supremes in the Nine Heavens, defeated but escaped gracefully...”

”Ancient Immortal Sect allies stood by and watched... The situation is unfavorable...”

... Ancestor Lin Yang and Lin Yin’s dying admonitions were correct; expanding to such a vast domain without killing a Supreme poses a significant risk, beyond our control.

”The taller the tree stands, the harsher the wind will blow.”

”However, without such a vast territory and the many Heavenly Material and Earthly Treasures providing resources, how could we advance further?”

”The ancestor was not wrong.”

This was information recorded by the Sun Sword Child in the sect, shared to the Seven-Colored Divine Splendor Domain.

”...the sect’s domains have fallen, and both Taiyin and I are fighting four Daoists alone, this is the destined fate of our generation of Taiyin and Taiyang Sword Children, and we can only hope to find a breakthrough in the Sword Dao through war.”

”But the opportunity seems very slim, as the Taiyin Taiyang Sword Dao emphasizes balance and accumulation, breakthroughs in life and death are not easy.”

”The Pure Yang Sword Child might find it easier, but he is not here.”

”Could he be lurking somewhere, plotting to kill a Daoist?”

”It must be so; besides this, he wouldn’t do anything else...”

”Also, I always thought he doesn’t look good in green, it’s too youthful and lacks authority, he should grow a bit older...”

The Sun Sword Child began to chatter nonsensically.

Jiang Ding strolled expressionlessly through, finding the information he sought, then setting down the jade slip, deep in thought.

Undoubtedly, he only had one opportunity to display the four-step limit Daoist’s combat power.

Once such power is revealed, the Supremes across the Perishing Immortal Realm would go berserk, all conflicts put aside temporarily, first to kill the Dari Swordsman.

Because the four-step limit Daoist will inevitably achieve supremacy, uniting the Great Thousand World.

Thus, timing is crucial.

Better to kill over six Daoists at once rather than eliminating them one by one. They are too cunning and shrewd; without the ability to shove aside Supremes, caution is paramount.

Jiang Ding pondered for a long time, sending a request for a meeting to the Sun Sword Master.
