Bombarding Cultivators with Cluster Artillery

An Tuzi silently looked at the young man in green not far away.

”Your cultivation ground?”

He asked as if to confirm.

”It is mine.”

Jiang Ding pointed with his finger, and the Taiqing Flying Sword hovered in the air, its splendid sword-light shining brightly. The array patterns of the Great Sun Heavenly Pond around him faintly merged with it, and the streams of sword qi above the magma lake were drawn towards this side, converging here.

An Tuzi fell silent at once.

Not because he acknowledged what the other said.

But because the power of this Great Sun Flying Sword within the Great Sun Heavenly Pond might exceed that of the outside world by many times. This place was the cradle of the successive Dari Swordsmen of the Great Sun Sword Pavilion, possessing an absolute geographical advantage.

”How about waiting for me for two and a half years?”

An Tuzi tried to reason with the other party, ”I need another two and a half years to refine my Magic Tool Embryo completely. I will leave after two and a half years.”

The Great Sun Heavenly Pond opened once every thousand years, each time for three years.

”Sealing my cultivation base is absolutely impossible,”

He stated decisively.

In his view, this was no different from suicide. Perhaps only after his own death could he make such a concession.

”I see.”

Jiang Ding sighed.

He similarly couldn’t trust the other party.

The Taoist of Five Elements was too strong, not someone who could be ignored like the others.

If he were to interfere or attempt an assassination during his battle with the aggregated remnants’ soul, it would put him in grave danger. No verbal promise could be trusted, no matter what.

Let alone any Five Elements Heavenly Sect covenant, that was a pact of power, not a personal one.

Clang!

A sound of sword cry spread in all directions, transmitting the excitement and delight that the Taiqing Flying Sword had restrained for a long time.

”An student.”

Jiang Ding spoke softly, ”We have been classmates for more than twenty years, yet we have never sparred, which I have always regretted. The ancients say, ’Among any group of three walkers, I will find my teacher.’ Please provide some guidance.”

”I knew it.”

An Tuzi looked expressionless.

The Eastern Devil School’s moral education couldn’t suppress the Dari Swordsman’s desire to kill; they always found seemingly reasonable excuses to come knocking.

The plump Five Elements Spirit Tower flew out from the magma sword river, hovering in front of him, and spread out a golden light shield, followed by a green light shield... encompassing metal, wood, water, fire, and earth. The somewhat complete Five Elements Sword Intent of Creation and Destruction enveloped.

The five layers of protective shields rotated endlessly, transforming into one another, seemingly never pausing.

Five Elements Wheel Light Shield!

This top-tier Second-Order Spell of the Five Elements Heavenly Sect was terrifying in his grasp. It was clearly just a Foundation Establishment Spell, but even if many Golden Pill Monks were to besiege him, they wouldn’t be able to leave a mark on it.

Boom!

Without any feints, amid the pervasive Sword Intent of Destruction, the Taiqing Flying Sword struck the Five Elements Wheel Light Shield directly, and one could only hear a crackling sound as the gold shield shattered, followed by the wood shield...

The sound of crackling was incessant, each layer being shattered had its power absorbed by the next layer, enhancing the strength of the next shield.

In an instant, the gold, wood, water, and fire shields all shattered, leaving only the last layer, a dirt shield, which was reinforced to the extreme, barely resisting the Blue-Gold Flying Sword for a moment.

Then,

Crack!

”Your sword seems different from the Flying Sword of the previous generation Dari Swordsman recorded in the Sect Book Pavilion,”

An Tuzi’s expression changed slightly.

It was his first time encountering such a situation.

Within his rank, it had always been a matter of deploying the Five Elements Wheel Light Shield and then forcefully pushing through; it was the first time all his shields were broken in a single strike.

The plump, five-colored small tower pushed upwards, the pointed tip fitting perfectly against the tip of the Taiqing Flying Sword.

Ding!

Brilliant sparks flew as both of them, as if struck by thunder, broke apart and were repelled backward.

”Five Elements Void Copper!”

Jiang Ding stared at the plump little tower.

Just like the Taiqing Spirit Iron of the Great Sun Sword Pavilion, the Five Elements Heavenly Sect had its own legacy Immortal Gold, the Five Elements Void Copper!

Legend had it that it was born in a place called the Five Elements Cave Heaven where the Sect was located.

This Cave Heaven was known as a land of creation; every hundred years it transformed, becoming a Wooden Cave Heaven and producing many wood-element Heavenly Material and Earthly Treasure, extremely suitable for growing Spiritual Plants.

When it became a Water Cave Heaven, it was suitable for the growth of Spirit Beasts...

In the center of the Five Elements Cave Heaven was a Five Elements Mountain, having undergone innumerable cycles of element transformation, in addition to the Five Elements Heavenly Sect’s investment of countless treasures for cultivation, every ten thousand years it would produce a set of Five Elements Void Copper!

This copper naturally carried the cycle of creation and destruction of the five elements, substantially lowering the threshold for comprehending the Magic Intention of the five elements.

Moreover, being born in the heart of the Cave Heaven, constantly connected to the chaos of the void’s storm, it possessed a natural space-creation might; refining it into a Life Treasure could have a terrifying effect.

It could increase the possibility of Refining Nothingness by ten to twenty percent out of thin air!

Above the five-colored tower, the light of the five elements circulated, and amid the diffused Magic Intention, the remaining bits of the dirt shield’s Spiritual Light quickly recovered; earth creates metal, metal creates water, water creates wood, wood creates fire, fire creates earth.

The Five Elements Wheel Light Shield reappeared, even stronger than before, and received some reinforcement in resisting the Flying Sword.

This is the Taoist of Five Elements!

Known as the Five Elements Indestructible, eternally immortal.

”Fellow Daoist, behold my next move!”

An Tuzi’s gaze grew a little colder.

He held the five-colored tower, casually swung it, and the tip shook out a clump of yellow earth, a chunk of metal, a segment of wood, a droplet of water, and a puff of fire enveloped in light blue smoke.

They looked quite ordinary, seemingly no different from the things that one could see commonly by the roadside.

Roar Roar!

The yellow earth, metal chunk, and other materials fell into the air, rolled on the spot, and actually transformed into five giant dragons of metal, wood, water, fire, and earth. They devoured Heavenly Earth Spiritual Qi, and with fangs bared and claws outstretched, they pounced towards the sky.

”Go!”

Jiang Ding motioned with a finger.

The Taiqing Flying Sword broke through the air, carrying the Sword Intent of Destruction to slash forth, exploding the earth dragon and the metal dragon in one blow. Barely delayed, it then shattered the remaining fire dragon, water dragon, and wood dragon.

Under the glow of the Magic Arts-Breaking Immortal Gold, nothing could stand in its way.

”Oh?”

Jiang Ding was about to continue his assault on An Tuzi when he was startled.

Amidst the shattered spiritual light in the sky, the Heavenly Earth Spiritual Qi converged, and the Golden Dragon, Earth Dragon, Wood Dragon, Fire Dragon, and Water Dragon miraculously revived, their auras identical to before.

Under the influence of the Sword Intent of Destruction and the Magic Arts-Breaking Immortal Gold, he was shockingly unable to eliminate the opponent’s magic!

”Haha!”

”Fellow Daoist!”

An Tuzi smiled and asked, ”How does my Five Elements Reincarnation Intent compare to your Sword Intent of Destruction?”

Screech!

With a wave of his hand that held the five-colored mini-tower, An Tuzi spat out five objects surrounded by a light spiritual air, representing the Five Elements. Five heavenly eagles of gold, wood, water, fire, and earth screeched, piercing the clouds and soaring into the sky, each exuding the aura of a Golden Pill Monk.

”Life!”

”Life!”

An Tuzi’s hands did not stop, he kept touching and transforming one spirit beast after another, each flying into the sky. In a blink of an eye, there were dozens of them, instantly forming a Five Elements Life and Death Battle Array.

They roared incessantly, surrounding the young man in blue in the sky, bombarding him with continuous spells such as wind blades, fire swords, meteors, and more.

What was even more terrifying was that each of these spirit beasts was enveloped in the Five Elements magic intention; once they died, the five-colored mini-tower flickered slightly, and the spiritual energy circulated to instantly revive the dead beasts to their peak state.

Boom!

Boom!

Brilliant blue-gold sword-light zigzagged across the sky, shattering the spiritual light and slicing through group after group of Five Elements spirit beasts. None could get close, showcasing a terrifying might.

But it was all in vain, a futile struggle of a trapped beast, as the spirit beasts were instantly resurrected.

The Five Elements Reincarnation was endless!

In just a short time, and with the consumption of mana, the sword-light started to dim.

”Sword Intent cannot overwhelm.”

”How did the Dari Swordsmen of the past deal with such equal challenges among Daoist disciples?”

Jiang Ding’s expression darkened, and he had his answer.

Swordsmanship!

The Dari Swordsman must be the highest skilled in swordsmanship among his peers in this domain, able to suppress other Daoist disciples with his swordsmanship.

”I don’t have that.”

A hint of restless murderous intent bubbled in Jiang Ding’s heart.

”But!”

”I am from the Xianmen Sect!”

”Even if a Dari Swordsman from the Great Sun Sword Pavilion dared to appear before me, I would blast them to death!”

Boom!

Within the sea of clouds, the world trembled, accompanied by a terrifying rumble. Within dozens of kilometers, endless Heavenly Earth Spiritual Qi began to converge.

”The Eastern Devil School, notorious in the domain for its war artifact.”

An Tuzi took a deep breath and gazed at the sky.

The half-space layer unfolded, revealing an Air-Space Warplane in the sky, which, after numerous modifications, had a silver-white body. It sported an electromagnetic main gun 29.521 meters long with a 324-millimeter caliber, running the length of the aircraft. The blue runes swirled around, endlessly consuming and spewing Heavenly Earth Spiritual Qi into the faintly lit blue muzzle.

A blue-gold light was visible within it, growing brighter and more distinct, the Sword Intent of Destruction focusing on the Vital Souls.

”Five Elements Reincarnation Intent,”

”Impressive.”

A vicious sneer appeared on Jiang Ding’s face: ”But can you withstand power and speed?”

Boom!

The electromagnetic main gun roared and shook as it fired its first shot from within the Great Sun Heavenly Pond.

The Taiqing Flying Sword had transformed into a streak of flowing light, the blue-gold Elimination Method light even disappearing from the detection of the Five Elements Reincarnation Intent.

”Damn it!”

”It’s true that the Dari Swordsman shouldn’t be involved with the Eastern Devil School!”

All leisure disappeared from An Tuzi’s face, his scalp tingling and divine soul trembling as madness surged within him, pouring all his mana into the five-colored mini-tower in his hand.

The already enveloped tower, surrounded by a five-layered protective shield, expanded outward once more, splitting into five, layer by layer, revealing a twenty-five-layered large Five Elements Reincarnation array covering nearly a kilometer, almost completely obscured by the protective barrier.

Boom!

At the first loud noise, the various golden dragons, wooden dragons, fire eagles, earth tigers, and the like surrounding Jiang Ding stood motionless.

Then, in an instant, they were obliterated!

The structure of the spells collapsed completely, and the Five Elements Reincarnation Intent could not resist, being destroyed by the ultimate speed and power.

Boom!

At the second loud noise, the twenty-five-layered shield of the grand Five Elements array shattered in a single breath.

An Tuzi’s robe bulged, Indestructible Vajra, adorned with five-colored patterns encircling, was a rare treasured artifact. It met the attack head-on and was also instantly torn as if it were made of paper.

”Come at me!”

In a moment of life and death, An Tuzi roared. The five-colored mini-tower instantly appeared in front of him.

Boom!

At the third loud noise, the near-light-speed Taiqing Flying Sword struck the five-colored Spirit Tower squarely, denting it with a fist-sized indentation. The weakest part faintly showed terrifying transparency as if on the verge of splitting.

”Puh!”

The five-colored mini-tower crashed into his chest, producing a cracking sound of shattered bones. An Tuzi spat out a large mouthful of blood, his aura plummeting.

Looking again in the distance, by the Air-Space Warplane, the electromagnetic main gun’s muzzle gleamed with a splendid blue-gold radiance, once more radiant between heaven and earth, the Sword Intent of Destruction firmly fixing on the Divine Soul.

”Old classmate!”

”We are allies!”

An Tuzi’s soul was in turmoil.

He screamed, his body suddenly collapsing into a five-colored spiritual light and disappearing, reappearing a hundred kilometers away, his body suffused with five colors circulating, the nebulous runes of the Five Elements Reincarnation swirling, once again vanishing beyond a hundred miles.

After several instances, he was gone without a trace.

”Five Elements Reincarnation Body!”

Standing on the Air-Space Warplane, Jiang Ding revealed a wary look and did not pursue any further.
