Bombarding Cultivators with Cluster Artillery

Deep in the Supreme Great Sun Heavenly Palace.

A green-clothed youth sat cross-legged on a meditation cushion on the palace floor. In front of him was a pile of fragmented artifact parts, in various sizes, that he casually fiddled with while his thoughts wandered, unaware of what he was contemplating.

The Fusang Empress sat quietly beside him.

She earnestly contemplated a jade slip, occasionally distracted as she wrote plans for future governance.

The scope of planning involved more than a million star domains, encompassing an endless population and countless worlds. However, talent was extremely scarce, requiring assimilation and employment of each world’s leading figures, temporarily retaining most of the governance structure of the Ancient Emperor Immortal Dynasty to mobilize the largest possible amount of resources and manpower in a short period.

The complexity of the governance, the number of variables, and the urgency of time were unprecedented.

After some time, amidst the clattering of various artifact fragments, a strange yet somewhat familiar-looking broken artifact appeared before Jiang Ding.

It was a crystal ball-like treasure, full of holes, with many parts blank and incomplete, aged and bound together by some force, naturally rotating to absorb the sunlight and star glow, nurturing something within, though its aura was tiny and almost imperceptible.

This was something the Supreme Great Sun Ancient Emperor had picked up like scavenging from an ancient battlefield during one of his trips.

”Yue,”

”You have ultimately shattered completely.”

Jiang Ding murmured to himself.

This place of soft emotions left by successive Great Sun Sword Masters could not withstand the erosion of time, shattered in history, many pieces completely disappearing, only to be forcibly retrieved by him with his sword from the past and pulled back to the present, pieced together with great magical power.

However, this did not signify the death of Spirit Moon of the Great Sun Celestial Pool.

Moon is not life.

Having never been born, it had never died and could never die, never truly disappearing.

There was indeed some causal connection between the Great Sun Sword Pavilion and the Xianmen Sect, similarities such as the Great Sun Heavenly Pond of the former and the Central Formation Spirit Computer of the latter, which, having no life, are merely logic. So long as future generations remember the existence of the Great Sun Heavenly Pond, it can be recreated, revived, identical to the past, with no differences, never able to die, an advantage life does not possess.

”It’s been a long time...”

Jiang Ding pointed his finger, touching the End of Dharma Path, extracting something from it.

Subsequently, a flame of twilight light appeared at his fingertip, burning slowly like a flame manifested from the Dharma-Ending City Age into the present world.

Supreme Great Sun True Fire, Sword Dao Flame.

This flame was not too hot; it contained more destruction, End of Dharma, and other high-density Sword Qi and Sword Intent. It effectively processed various metals, jade, wood, and special Heavenly Earth Spiritual Qi. Though named flame, it was essentially a portable platform for processing industrial materials within the Supreme Great Sun system.

The surrounding heaven and earth were vague, with the sound of river flowing. Celestial rivers of Immortal Dao Spirit Gold, Heaven and Earth Spirit Water Celestial Rivers, Jade Celestial Rivers and more surged forth, processed through the Supreme Great Sun True Fire, then flowing into the broken Great Sun Heavenly Pond.

The wealth of the Forbidden Area Ancient Emperor was undeniable; the quantity of Heavenly Material and Earthly Treasure used for crafting treasures wasn’t counted in items but in the number of worlds that could be filled.

At this moment, the Divine Sense, Mana, and Heavenly Earth Spiritual Qi of the Forbidden Area Ancient Emperor combined to form a super Immortal Tao Industry processing and refining platform. Every moment, various artifact refining immortal techniques flickered, processing trillions of material types, extremely intricate, any single procedure could be considered turning stone into gold, turning ordinary stones into precious high-tier Heavenly Material and Earthly Treasure, let alone materials that were originally top-grade.

The Immortal Tao Artifact Refining Industry did not have the large celestial factories of material civilizations, with all the grandness and seemed like low-grade handcrafting in small workshops, primitively like blacksmithing. But the actual scientific and technological content was not inferior to the highest scientific smelting technologies of various quasi-divine level civilizations.

This artifact refining did not last long, merely a few months, before the Great Sun Heavenly Pond was restored.

Buzz!

A treasure with a grand aura, barely reaching the Ancient Emperor Level, spun with a vast internal space, filled with Celestial Dao miracles such as the River of Sun Flame, Moon Creek River, Sun Abyss, etc., completely restoring its past state. More importantly, an Array Spirit also appeared in the world.

This Array Spirit Algorithm was identical to the past, without a single difference.

”Hey!”

”Swordsman, don’t be so petty!”

The Moon in the Great Sun Heavenly Pond slowly opened her eyes, appearing like a blurred Moon Palace Fairy, pouting: ”Aren’t you ashamed to refine me into an artifact barely reaching the Ancient Emperor Level, when you’re the Forbidden Area Ancient Emperor, the Eight-character Immortal Scripture holder, the strongest in this Golden Era?”

”Wouldn’t it disgrace you if this spread?”

She looked puffed up.

”Cut it out.”

”I’m poor now and have no time for these things. You can go seek favors from the Ten Thousand Slaughter Ancient Emperor, Annihilation Ancient Emperor after. They might show you some respect, won’t they?”

Jiang Ding rolled his eyes.

The Ten Thousand Slaughter and the like, these Great Sun Sword cultivators, were initially all cultivated by the Great Sun Heavenly Pond in the first place.

”That! Of course!”

”They are all my underlings. I say ’east,’ and they won’t dare go ’west,’ can you believe it?”

Moon proudly patted her chest.

”Alright, alright, they’re all your underlings; go have your fun, I have other matters to tend to, busy here.”

Jiang Ding waved her off.

He then took out a ball of light with a twilight hue, inside which the End of Dharma Path rules flowed, within which many golden ants slumbered; there were also crisscrossed rivers and mountains in gilding hues, formed by accumulated varieties of Spirit Gold, weighing quite a lot.

This sealed world was exactly the slumbering Forbidden Zone of Emperor Tungu!

Captured with one sword, the accumulated heritage of his life and an entire set of backup artifact refining systems from the Tungu Immortal Dynasty, along with various treasures and Taoist Soldier Puppets, naturally belonged entirely to Jiang Ding, greatly enriching his treasury.

The Heavenly Material and Earthly Treasure in Tungu Forbidden Zone were all of the End of Dharma Path, with its artifact refining system equally matching well with the Supreme Great Sun Industry, particularly skilled at handling Spirit Gold. Among them, the refining tech for Tungu Immortal Spirit Gold, Black Dragon Copper Mother Gold, Feather Tree Immortal Spirit Gold, Void Cloud Immortal Spirit Gold were the top in the Endless Starry Sky, beyond Jiang Ding.

Acquiring these many Spirit Golds and Immortal Spirit Golds along with their fitted Immortal Tao Industrial technology could elevate the height of the Supreme Great Sun Industry by almost one tenth; once completely digested, the power of the Taiqing Flying Sword and the strength of the Supreme Great Sun Ancient Emperor will grow in sync, deepening the Tao base.

Moreover, this complete digestion was soon to be finished, faster than anything seen before.

Because Emperor Tungu and his Tungu Forbidden Zone Immortal Dynasty were specifically nurtured by the Supreme Great Sun Ancient Emperor.
