Bombarding Cultivators with Cluster Artillery

In the span of eternity, the Fourth Immortal Dynasty established by the Supreme Great Sun Maidens Dao has already traversed twenty million years.

Ten million years have passed; the Endless Starry Sky occasionally faces minor rebellions but remains generally stable, with the basic standards of livelihood and politics upheld. At the very least, there hasn’t been widespread starvation or cultivators unable to survive. Politically, its lifespan already far surpasses that of the Second and Third Immortal Dynasties.

The only concern is that we have now entered the fifth ten million years since the departure of the Ancient Emperor.

The Supreme Great Sun’s Original Ancient Talisman has been without the Ancient Emperor for fifty million years, accumulating minor errors constantly. Were it not for the successive maintenance by the Heavenly Destruction Sword Master, Zhan Yang Sword Master, and the twenty-first Sword Master, the talisman would have collapsed long ago.

Yet, even so, the errors in the Supreme Great Sun’s Original Ancient Talisman now become worrisome.

Currently, the productivity level of the Fourth Supreme Great Sun Immortal Dynasty is less than one-fifteenth of the Ancient Emperor Era, having declined too much. The Dyson Super Energy Plan, Starry Sky Immortal Dao Ascension Array, and other grand projects face increasing resistance, their effects weakening. The Endless Starry Sky begins to revert to its natural barrenness, and the Ancient Emperor’s transformative traces are disappearing.

”The Immortal Dynasty is collapsing, with only at most fifteen million years remaining.”

”And it’s not due to politics and war, but the inevitable collapse of the Ancient Emperor’s Original Ancient Talisman.”

The contemporary Tushan Maid Chief, Daoist Master of the Supreme Great Sun Maidens Dao, Sangji—a gentle and beautiful woman—stood atop Ziwei Tianzhu, gazing at the Endless Starry Sky and lightly sighed.

She was extraordinarily beautiful, with an elegant temperament, hailing from the Fusang Holy Land.

Her height remained the same as past Tushan Maid Chiefs, at about one meter fifty-six.

This was a deep mark left by the first-generation Tushan Maid Chief. The deeper one delves into this path, the more traits of the Tao Ancestor Master become evident. This is why many cultivators view the Sect as their future and extension, far exceeding the importance of offspring.

”If either the Xianmen Sect or Great Sun Sword Pavilion were to produce a True Immortal, perhaps the collapse of the Supreme Great Sun’s Original Ancient Talisman might be delayed.”

Amongst the first to twelfth sequence of maidens, one possessed the Maiden Dao.

The Tushan Maid Group or the Supreme Great Sun Maidens Dao maintained the Ancient Emperor Era’s organizational structure. From the Maid Chief on down, there are twelve sequences of maidens, each commanding an Imperial Guard Army.

”Impossible.”

”We constantly monitor the Endless Starry Sky. Should these two great forces attempt to cultivate a True Immortal, they would immediately incur our brutal counterattack, effectively terminating such possibilities.”

No sooner had the maiden’s words fallen than there was immediate opposition.

The Supreme Maid Dao governs the Endless Starry Sky with relatively gentle methods, adept at integrating elite members from various Immortal Sects and Holy Lands into the ruling group. Yet, this does not mean they are weak and easily deceived. Facing any threat to their foundational rule, they immediately unleash terror.

To cultivate a True Immortal is akin to developing a nuclear weapon industry; it’s a grand undertaking.

Throughout this process, regardless of how it is hidden, there will always be traces. Historically, the Immortal Dynasty coalition established by the Supreme Maid Dao has repeatedly swept through the Endless Starry Sky, extinguishing young True Immortals born to the Xianmen Sect and Great Sun Sword Pavilion, eradicating any potential threat to their rule.

This is the ultimate line for the Supreme Great Sun Maidens Dao and the Fourth Immortal Dynasty as an organizational entity!

Anyone, internally or externally, attempting to cross this line would pay a heavy price.

The sequence maiden, who just suggested cultivating True Immortals from Xianmen Sect or Great Sun Sword Pavilion, realized her faux pas, retreated a step, and remained silent while listening to the other maidens speak.

”Then our only path is to cultivate our own True Immortal.”

”This is the sole choice.”

Sangji exhibited a firm resolve, saying, ”The Supreme Great Sun Maidens Dao is a projection of the Ancient Emperor’s path, closely tied to his journey, naturally occupying a subordinate position, naturally suited to repair and maintain the Supreme Great Sun’s Original Ancient Talisman. With the birth of a True Immortal within the Supreme Great Sun Maidens Dao, the lifespan of the talisman could certainly be extended!”

”Similarly!”

She showed a fervent expression, with many sequence maidens showing uncontrollable eagerness: ”Only with the birth of a True Immortal from the Supreme Great Sun Maidens Dao will we possess sufficient vitality, endure longer within the Endless Starry Sky, and preserve the lineage into the Golden Era, awaiting the awakening of the Emperor!”

”Moreover!”

”An Ancient Emperor might also emerge within the Supreme Great Sun Maidens Dao!”

”When the Golden Era arrives, the Ancient Emperor within the Maidens Dao will be reborn, encountering our Ancient Emperor anew!”

”This will be the lifelong glory of the Supreme Great Sun Maidens Dao!”

”Endless glory!”

Sangji cried out passionately, articulating her ambition.

”An Ancient Emperor among the maidens?”

Many maidens were stunned.

They were amazed by Sangji’s ambition.

Could an Ancient Emperor indeed arise among the maidens?

Yet, pondering this possibility, envisioning the Ancient Emperor awakening in the Golden Era, encountering an Ancient Emperor among the maidens, stirred excitement in all the maidens.

”This future...”

The maidens exchanged looks, spoke in unison.

”Perhaps possible!”

...

It’s unknown what resolution was reached in Ziwei Tianzhu.

On a certain day, the entire Endless Starry Sky became busy, centered around the Tushan Maidens. The Beidou Holy Land, Supreme Great Sun Sword Dao Soldiers, Xianmen Sect, and all Holy Lands, sects, families, and races busied themselves, each assigned discrete research tasks with various target rewards delineated.

The numerous forces in the Endless Starry Sky seemed struck by a whip, hastily bustling.

In their busyness, many cultivators even harbored the illusion of being in the Ancient Emperor’s Era, as recorded in history.

This was the only instance in the post-Ancient Emperor Era where the entire Immortal Dynasty became completely mobilized, actively researching and developing a specific project.

Both the Second Immortal Dynasty era of the Xianmen Sect and the Third Immortal Dynasty era of the Great Sun Sword Cultivation rarely saw such substantial movements. The Ancient Emperor Era had already advanced Immortal Dao research to the peak, with no further progress possible, post-Ancient Emperor left no one capable of further advancement.

Much of the research from the post-Ancient Emperor Era named research was in fact mere archaeology.

This complete development of a new Immortal Dao super project in the post-Ancient Emperor Era stands as a singular example, leaving many cultivators perplexed.

However, as the research deepened, both Xianmen Sect and various Immortal Sects began understanding the maidens’ objectives.

”They’re mad!”

”Impossible! Entirely impossible!”

”Merely a group of maidens, audaciously dreaming of birthing a True Immortal; utterly arrogant!”

Within the Xianmen Sect, many citizens were infuriated.

More infuriatingly, these maidens were also utilizing the Xianmen Sect labor, tasking it to assist in solving the myriad challenges of birthing a True Immortal from the Supreme Great Sun Maidens Dao.

This was unacceptable!

For the benefit of the Xianmen Sect, for citizen dignity, many began instinctively decelerating research progress, even reporting false research developments, and the Great Sun Sword Pavilion likewise made similar choices.

Nonetheless, when the ruling-grade Dao Soldiers of the Supreme Great Sun Maidens Dao emerged from Ziwei Star Domain, brimming with killing intent, commencing their patrols, numerous Immortal Sect Holy Lands, Xianmen Sect, and Great Sun Sword Pavilion quickly altered attitudes, becoming cooperative and efficient, suppressing internal dissent.

Twenty million years!

The Supreme Great Sun Maidens Dao has governed the Endless Starry Sky for twenty million years!

Their rule is gentle, yet like frogs being boiled alive, they continually erode and dismantle the configurations and strengths of the Supreme Great Sun Sword Dao Soldiers and Xianmen Sect, and the formation and powers of various super-tier elites, persisting with numerous weakening policies over generations, leading to the Tushan Maid Group now being the unequivocal strongest army in the Endless Starry Sky!

Moreover, it far surpasses any singular force as the world’s strongest army!
