Bombarding Cultivators with Cluster Artillery

Supreme Great Sun Day Pivot.

Accompanied by the Empress, the Ancient Emperor sat eternally on the Crystal Divine Throne, overlooking the Endless Starry Sky, never having left.

After all, in today’s Endless Starry Sky, that one person beside him was the only one with whom the Ancient Emperor shared any personal bond, making it meaningless to leave.

””Grass Character Immortal Sword Scripture”...”

Jiang Ding slowly opened the jade slip personally given to him by the Nine-leaf Sword Emperor.

The legacy that was once an extremely dangerous, cosmic-level catastrophe now caused no ripples in his hands, as ordinary as a jade slip of wood or stone.

The Ancient Emperor pondered how to integrate this Immortal Scripture into the heritage of the Xianmen Sect and Taoist Court.

The Ancient Emperor was never one to hoard treasures, and he understood the importance of legacy and research materials to Immortal Tao Scientists.

However, the Grass Character Immortal Sword Scripture was extremely dangerous; it required some harmless treatment.

”Soft persimmon, do you know the growth path of the Nine-leaf Sword Emperor?”

”The era which humiliated the human race sword cultivators under the Endless Starry Sky, a shameful era when later generations could not bear or dare to claim the title of Sword Emperor.”

Jiang Ding suddenly asked.

After engaging in a sword duel with the Nine-leaf Sword Emperor, the complexity of destiny deduction was vastly reduced, and both Sword Emperors gained deeper insights into each other’s lives.

”I want to know, Your Majesty.”

The Fusang Empress replied with a laugh.

Beside her, countless generations of Vermilion Bird Saintesses covered their mouths with a laugh, their bright eyes and white teeth, their jade-like charm and innocent maiden demeanor made one’s heart skip a beat.

”The Nine-leaf Sword Emperor was born in a Human Race Sword Dao Immortal Dynasty, with the emperor at the time named the Youlin Sword Emperor.”

”This useless one, who perhaps obtained about an eighty or ninety-character Immortal Scripture, or maybe only a sixty-character Immortal Scripture level, became a Sword Emperor in an era with few heavenly prides and heroes.”

”A... useless one.”

Jiang Ding stated indifferently.

”Useless...”

The Fusang Empress whispered the words.

To directly insult a Sword Emperor in such a manner was extremely rare for the Supreme Great Sun Ancient Emperor, who even referred to a Qi Practitioner courteously as a Fellow Daoist, never condescending or arrogant, maintaining an almost anti-human humility and curious innocence toward new matters.

Typically, the closer one is to an Immortal, the more they feel their own insignificance and ignorance.

It was clear the psychological impact and the enduring burning humiliation that Youlin Sword Emperor inflicted on the successors of human race sword cultivators.

”Wait, when the Sword Emperor was alive!”

”Was he reverse slain by an alien race sword cultivator during his lifetime?”

The Fusang Empress suddenly recalled something incredulously.

Being a Sword Emperor of the time, blessed with the Ancient Emperor’s mark, even the Forbidden Area Ancient Emperor couldn’t slay him, yet he was reverse slain by a lower rank cultivator; is this even humanly possible?

”Yes.”

”This useless one indeed did so.”

Jiang Ding sighed deeply.

”The Nine-leaf Sword Emperor was at first a weed, a very clever weed.”

”He was discovered by the Youlin Sword Emperor, personally nurtured, and thrown into endless bloody wars since the Youlin Sword Emperor was unrivaled in his era, seeing no path ahead. One day, he gained enlightenment from a weed, realizing a scripture intertwining Divine Soul and Life Dao, named Grass Character Immortal Sword Scripture.”

”Grass Character Immortal Sword Scripture?”

The Fusang Empress’s heart shook.

”Indeed.”

”The initial creator of the Grass Character Immortal Sword Scripture was the Youlin Sword Emperor, this useless one had the demeanor of the Great Sun Ancestor Master, ambitiously attempting to embark on a path of a Forbidden Area Ancient Emperor, using at most a sixty-character Immortal Scripture’s talent to defy the heavens, treading an unprecedented new path.”

Jiang Ding stated casually.

Such arrogance was extremely common among human race sword cultivators.

”The Youlin Sword Emperor attempted many experiments, cultivating numerous weeds, not knowing how many died, until eventually, a very special weed emerged, becoming his wife.”

”Ah?”

”Weed, wife?”

The Fusang Empress was stunned, her big eyes slightly widened, adorably.

She remembered, the Nine-leaf Sword Emperor seemed to be a very handsome male emperor?

”Weeds have no gender.”

”There’s no need for assumptions.”

Jiang Ding slightly shook his head and continued.

”With the assistance of this Empress, the Grass Character Immortal Sword Scripture rapidly advanced, and the Youlin Sword Emperor finally saw the road of the Forbidden Area Ancient Emperor, beginning to envision many things and plan long-term futures.”

”After thirty million years in the first life, the Youlin Sword Emperor took the Undying Immortal Medicine, living out a second life, starting to cultivate his path.”

”Then... he died.”

Jiang Ding paused in his speech, revealing a look of confusion.

He never imagined that the Youlin Sword Emperor, an Ancient Emperor of his era, would die prematurely after only experiencing one life, having just lost the absolute protection of the Heavenly Dao.

There were many inexplicable things in this.

”No one knows what happened.”

”It’s only known that subsequently, the Nine-leaf Sword Emperor rose rapidly, achieving True Immortal, then becoming a Sword Emperor, with no vacuum period after the Emperor’s departure.”

When an Ancient Emperor departs, the world quiets for a time.

For instance, if the Supreme Great Sun Ancient Emperor were to sleep, no new Emperors could emerge for millions or even billions of years due to a lack of something in the world.

But the Nine-leaf Sword Emperor was not affected like that.

The only known fact is that the Youlin Sword Emperor, a Human Race Sword Emperor, spiraled out of control and was slain by the very weed he nurtured, making the sitting Emperor a target of reverse slaying by a lower rank cultivator—a joke that could last until the universe’s end.

Critically, the Empress of the weedy kind was the one who reverse slew.

”Your Majesty,”

This made the Fusang Empress slightly annoyed, somewhat aggrieved.

Currently, the Supreme Great Sun Ancient Emperor’s first life was halfway through, with just over ten million years left before the second life, bearing many similarities to the era described.

”Hahaha!”

”Soft persimmon, don’t worry...”

Seeing her pout, Jiang Ding chuckled slightly, pinching her cheeks: ”There’s no need to worry; if I die at your hands, and especially by the sword way, I would die without regret and harbor no resentment; it would be a more excellent sword cultivator growing upon my remains.”

”It’s nothing.”

”I don’t want it this way.”

”I don’t need it.”

The Fusang Empress’s eyes reddened, suddenly shaking her head.

”Then,”

”Then forget it.”

Jiang Ding sighed softly, stroked her hair, and removed a dark green grass seed from within, crushing it casually.

This was the gift of the Nine-leaf Sword Emperor from years ago that he had long noticed but ignored because it was entirely harmless and instead represented an opportunity for a lower tier cultivator to reverse slay an emperor.

How could he bear to seize the Empress’ opportunity, given their long association?

However, the grass seed never sprouted.

Hence forget it.

His Empress indeed lacked much ambition.
