Bombarding Cultivators with Cluster Artillery

Xiandu.

The Dinghai Zhenyuan.

Two people were watching the battlefield.

”If such a Dari Swordsman really grows up...” Immortal Huangmao said with a serious expression, ”it will be a huge potential threat to both Xianmen Sect and its enemies, and we must treat it with caution!”

”Indeed, he is too terrifying for his peers.”

”His attack power is strong, his concealment abilities are extremely powerful, and his attack range is very long. It’s just that his mobility is lacking by a lot, but once he becomes a cultivator, this disadvantage will no longer exist.”

Immortal Dinghai deeply agreed.

The mere thought of such Nascent Soul Monks possibly appearing on the future battlefield made his scalp tingle.

...

Bang!

An azure sword-light carrying a silhouette smashed beside Zhou Lingling and the other Qi Practitioners, along with a golden light amulet.

”A living Peak of Qi Practicing cultivator, huh.”

Immediately, a group of classmates gathered around, clicking their tongues in amazement.

They were not worried about the person lashing out, as they had all seen the dense network of sword Qi patterns within his meridians and flesh. They feared that any slight movement would cause him to explode into a bloody rain.

”This person has at least two amulets on him, one for concealment, one for attack. He comes from no ordinary family. We should consider interrogating him.”

”You all can consider using the amulets yourselves.”

The Azure Flying Sword vibrated the air, sending out a voice.

Amulets were of no use to Jiang Ding.

Their power was so-so, and they would reveal his location, which was not worth the risk.

Furthermore, unlike Outer Realm Cultivators with strong gang loyalty, trophies acquired by the military in Xianmen Sect must be submitted to public resources, and that includes the scouts’ finds.

”But there is one thing.”

”If he can’t withstand it and speaks on his own accord, that’s that.”

”However, if you promise him anything, like his release or some kind of preferential treatment, to obtain information, you must follow through on your words!”

”This...”

Zhou Lingling was taken aback.

The young man lying on the ground rolled his eyes, seemingly unsurprised.

Most sword cultivators valued their promises, which seemed to be related to the firm conviction they hold when comprehending Sword Intent.

”No problem.”

Zhou Lingling thought for a while and agreed to it.

Xiandu Sect was teeming with talents among its students.

Soon, a very cute-looking girl stepped forward, giggled, and took the handsome young man away. Not long after, a piercing scream could be heard.

”Ding!”

”Second-order War Commanders Jin Lingfeng, Xu Jianian, Ou Daocheng, Liu Mei, and seven others have initiated a legion vote to establish a Frontline Military Committee for this campaign.”

”In favor/Oppose?”

After the initial stabilization of the various fronts, the Array Spirit’s prompt arrived.

With so many types of computers as its foundation, its voice seemed to have become a bit more animated, at least reaching the standard of artificial intelligence.

”In favor.”

Jiang Ding voted, and so did the others.

If anyone rejected at this stage, unless there was a significant change, they could expect a zero score in the practical combat course.

”The approval rate is 99.9999%.”

Jiang Ding was somewhat speechless, as there really were some who opposed.

In a crowd of over ten thousand with all sorts, it fully displayed the diversity of human species throughout the evolution process.

”The Desolate Bronze West Desert Frontline Military Committee is established, now electing members for the Frontline General Committee and the Frontline Military Committee...”

Another voting option appeared.

Jiang Ding did not do much; the Second-order War Commanders all cast their votes.

”Student Jin Lingfeng has been elected as the Frontline General Commissioner, while students Xu Jianian, Ou Daocheng, and others have been elected as members of the Frontline Military Committee.”

”The Frontline Military Committee has appointed student Jin Lingfeng as the temporary general of the Northern Army Group.”

”Appointed student Liu Mei as the temporary general of the Western Army Group.”

”Appoint Ou Daocheng as acting general of the Southern Army Group.”

”Appoint Xu Jianian as acting general of the Eastern Army Group.”

...

”Appoint An Siyan as acting Chief of Staff for the campaign.”

Jiang Ding recalled the female student he had slain with a single sword strike, whose three amulet tool embryos were all designed to enhance computational power—her combat capabilities were only slightly stronger than those of an average Qi Practitioner at the ninth layer.

She wore glasses and had a very quiet demeanor.

...

”Each of the North, South, East, and West Army Groups has 250,000 people, with a ratio of cultivators to tanks at 22 percent.”

”Divide each Army Group into twenty-five divisions.”

...

”Appoint Zhou Lingling as commander of the Second Tank Regiment of the 11th Division, Eastern Army Group.”

...

”Appoint Jiang Ding as commander of the Special Reconnaissance Brigade of the Eastern Army Group.”

...

”All students, please approach your highest military commander.”

”If you encounter insurmountable objective difficulties, you may apply to change your assigned unit.”

The list of appointments was incredibly detailed, covering nearly every aspect of nearly a million people, taking into account location, abilities, special talents, and even preferences.

The Array Spirit, which had begun to develop artificial intelligence, must have played a huge role in this.

A pop-up window vibrated in the panoramic helmet, letting it unfold.

”Student Jiang Ding.”

Xu Jianian still had his characteristic haughty look, with his nostrils in the air, making people itch to punch him.

”Please move to me quickly, command the Xianmen Dao Soldier Army as the bodyguard. Among the cultivators of the Xuanwu Heavenly Palace, there must be foundation-building prodigies with Golden Core battle power. I am a prime target for him to behead first.”

”If your Sword Intent can sense his position, it will be helpful to the situation of the battle.”

”Besides that, I’ve planned a march route for you, along which you could take care of some of the enemies that other units encounter, reducing casualties, and speeding up their concentration and convergence.”

This person was the only one who didn’t call him Dari Swordsman lately.

Jiang Ding’s impression of him improved a tiny bit.

After a moment of silence.

”Yes.”

Around him, other students quickly organized according to the new structure, with tank regiments joining tank regiments and infantry joining infantry, occasionally reporting back and tweaking the organization.

The people were the same, but the entire spirit of the groups was rapidly changing.

Tanks and track trucks, armored command vehicles, and various types of equipment continually headed in different directions, integrating into new structures.

”Shall we go together?”

Zhou Lingling asked.

Her unit was about to move. After converging with a tank regiment and two infantry regiments, they would approach the headquarters of the 11th Division of the Eastern Army Group. The headquarters of the 11th Division was also moving towards the location of the military headquarters and the Army Group headquarters.

The final outcome would be to form an orderly attack and defense system spanning hundreds of kilometers across the battlefield, with many tank shells as the core, heavy machine guns, and Taoist Soldier Troops as shielding!

Ensuring that across the hundreds of kilometers width of the battlefield,

If an enemy Foundation-building cultivator is spotted at any point, a call to the artillery can ensure their destruction!

”...Received!”

Before Jiang Ding could respond, Zhou Lingling’s expression changed.

Moments later, the thirty-six tank cannons of the Second Tank Regiment adjusted their directions uniformly, slightly tilting up and down, with the Spiritual Light of magic flickering, adding Breaking Law, Acceleration, Concealment, and other spells to the shells.

”Fire!”

Boom boom boom!

The flashes from the muzzles formed a continuous line, trails of white smoke rising into the air, flying towards the distance.

”The 10th Division has encountered an attack from double-digit Foundation-building cultivators and a large number of Qi Practitioners!”

It was only then that Zhou Lingling had a chance to speak, hastily saying, ”Dari Swords... Student Jiang Ding, can you provide us with precise coordinates?”

Jiang Ding glanced over.

Indeed, new orders had popped up at Xu Jianian’s location, pointing towards the 10th Division’s direction.

”Alright.”
