Bombarding Cultivators with Cluster Artillery

A delicate sense of control arose in Jiang Ding’s heart.

He found that he could control everything within the Great Sun Heavenly Pond, allowing it to fly through the Domain Starry Sky at speeds far exceeding those of ordinary Starry Sky Fortresses.

He could also control the cycles of the sun and moon within, the flow of spiritual energy, changes in the Earth Vein, and everything in the River of Sun Flame, Moon Creek River, and the Sun Abyss.

He could even activate a vast expanse of Immortal Path array patterns within the Great Sun Heavenly Pond, releasing infinite radiance to annihilate enemies, rendering him invincible at the God-Transformation Phase.

However, all these actions were hindered by the seals of the Eight Great Immortal Sects, making them immovable.

The Great Sun Heavenly Pond struggled, the rune chains of the Eight Great Immortal Sects tightly binding it. The severe tug of war between them would take hundreds to thousands of years to decide a winner.

”Damn the Eight Great Immortal Sects!”

”Shameless!”

Jiang Ding, looking displeased, said, ”Why should your seals be on my possession? Have you no ounce of morality that a sect should have?”

”Exactly!”

”Yes, indeed.”

Yueling, with a gentle tone, seized the opportunity to provide guidance on the Dao Heart, ”Swordsman, the Eight Great Immortal Sects have always been despicable and shameless; it’s their true nature.”

”Of course, we don’t need to harbor hatred or contempt, but let’s acknowledge that this is a clever tactic and plan to slay them one by one in the future.”

”That’s true,”

Jiang Ding quite agreed.

”Hundreds to thousands of years... I can’t wait that long.”

”It’s better to ask the Immortal Sect Refining Void Great Formation for help.”

Jiang Ding took out another document.

It was issued by the Immortal Sect Military Committee and could be used to mobilize the Sect’s Refining Void-level Great Formations; the supervising Heavenly Monarch would cooperate only after getting authorization.

Otherwise, regardless of whether you are a Swordsman or not, trying to persuade them with personal connections is dreaming.

Without careful attention, one might even be sent to the military court.

”According to the order,”

”I earnestly request that you lend me your strength, senior!”

Jiang Ding said respectfully, holding the authorization document with both hands.

”Alright.”

The friendly voice of the Divine Mechanism Heavenly Monarch came through.

Hum!

In an instant, infinite white light burst forth across the heavens and the earth.

This light filled the entire Domain Starry Sky, a vast expanse of white, obscuring the skies and the earth, dimming the sun and moon, even halting thought, touching upon an unknown power.

The Nascent Soul phase Divine Souls couldn’t comprehend its existence, only feeling its vastness, might, and dominion over everything.

”Swordsman, this is the power of the Refining Void level.”

”The Power of Rules.”

Yueling conscientiously fulfilled her role as an instructor, ”Please remember, whether you are at the Nascent Soul stage or Divinity Transformation stage, if you cannot birth and control the Power of Rules, do not confront the power of the Refining Void Stage.”

”Whether Refining Void Dao Soldiers, early-stage Void Refining practitioners, or the Refining Void Great Formation, do not oppose them, and flee as far as possible.”

”Do not try to fight them.”

This truly highlighted the flexibility of a Sword Cultivator’s Sword Heart.

Even a Great Sun Sword Cultivator, knows when to decisively flee, not blindly rushing in at the sight of blood.

”What is the Power of Rules?”

Jiang Ding quickly asked.

”It is the power born when the prototype of the Grand Sun Sword Realm becomes fully formed, a thing called the ’Seed of Rules’ will be born within the Sword Realm prototype, producing the Power of Rules,”

Yueling answered.

”Divinity Transformation inheritance?”

Jiang Ding quickly asked another question, thinking of something.

”No.”

”That’s not my responsibility; that’s for the Sword Pavilion Envoy Hei.”

Yueling shook her head, continuing.

”The Power of Rules is not something you can aspire to now.”

”Your current goal should be the minor accomplishment of the Sword Realm Prototype.”

”Sword Realm Prototype minor accomplishment?”

Jiang Ding asked.

”Each Sword Intent cycles endlessly, forming an orderly composition, together constructing a complete world, capable of continuously transforming Heavenly Earth Spiritual Qi amidst chaos—this is what is considered a minor achievement.”

”The minor achievement of the Grand Sun Sword Realm’s prototype can give birth to the ’Power of Order’.”

”This is a kind of power similar to the Rule Power, but of a lower order. The Sword Pavilion Ancestor Master created it specifically to let the sect heirs experience the Rule Power ahead of time, making their advancement to the Refining Nothingness stage somewhat easier in the future.”

”Generations of Ancestor Masters speculated that if one could birth the Power of Order during the Nascent Soul Stage, the prospects of advancing above Refining Nothingness would be greater.”

”You should strive towards this goal.”

Yueling said hopefully.

This generation’s Dari Swordsman was corrupted by the Eastern Devil School, which was very bad.

However, as long as one ascends above Refining Nothingness, everything ceases to be a problem. Even if the Ancestor Masters were resurrected, they would humbly admit their own mistakes.

”Power of Order?”

”Did Xi Yuan achieve it during his Nascent Soul Stage?”

Jiang Ding asked curiously.

”No, just barely missed it.”

”He grasped the Power of Order at the moment he ascended to Divinity Transformation.”

Yueling shook her head, ”During his radiant era, the Daoist from the Eight Great Immortal Sects were too weak, and without any Daoist from the Eastern Devil School, naturally, their opponents’ strength was significantly weaker.”

”Such level of opponents couldn’t forge too outstanding a sharpness.”

”Back then, Xi Yuan successfully killed a Daoist from the Eight Great Immortal Sects. The current Refining Nothingness Great Experts of the Eight Great Immortal Sects were all later cultivated by the Immortal Sects.”

”But still, it was not enough to birth the Power of Order.”

This is the precious aspect of opponents for Grand Sun Sword Cultivation.

”Swordsman, according to experience, you should cherish your own Daoist.”

”The strongest Swordsman in the history of the Sword Pavilion was Zhong Guangzi. He successfully broke through the alliance of the Nine Great Daoists and killed nine Daoists. Though gravely injured, he did not die, and there was much more possibility of breaking through above Refining Nothingness in the future.”

”However, his fortune was not so good. He was suppressed by a higher order power from the Nine Great Immortal Sects.”

Yueling said very calmly.

Without hatred, without rancor, just plainly speaking out.

Grand Sun Sword Cultivation does not differentiate between friend and foe, sharpening their swords daily on others’ lives, and if killed by someone else, it’s only natural.

There’s nothing about fairness or unfairness, whether of the same level or different.

If there’s resentment and constant complaining, seeking various excuses—

that’s too shameful, unable to accept defeat.

”Power of Order? Understood.”

”Thank you, Teacher.”

Jiang Ding expressed his respect and bowed.

”Ah?”

Yueling gazed at him slightly.

This generation’s Dari Swordsman was unexpectedly polite; usually, there seemed to be none, all being rather cold.

”Jiang Ding, use the Heavenly Pond Formation to attack point A574, point B25... The timing is...”

The voice of the Divine Mechanism Heavenly Monarch came.

As soon as the voice appeared, a structural diagram of the Great Sun Heavenly Pond Formation appeared within Jiang Ding’s Sea of Consciousness, marking various nodes.

”Yes, senior.”

Jiang Ding immediately responded.

His Divine Sense and mana surged in.

Under Yueling’s coordination, the Great Sun Heavenly Pond radiated infinite light, gathering dazzling golden Sword Qi Heavenly Dragons carrying the will of annihilation, embracing the immense momentum of the endless world, roaring towards each node, launching an attack on the seals of the Eight Great Immortal Sects.

At the same time, outside the Great Sun Heavenly Pond, the Immortal Sect’s Refining Nothingness Great Formation thunderously operated, with electromagnetic thunderbolts containing unknown powers striking down from the sky, hitting the seals of the Eight Great Immortal Sects, causing cracking sounds and fragments to scatter.

Jiang Ding’s Divine Sense and mana surged out like a tsunami, draining away, coordinating with the external attack.

After an unknown amount of time.

Boom!

Only a loud noise was heard as the rune shackles seal of the Eight Great Immortal Sects finally reached its limit and collapsed into a sky full of streaming lights.

The Great Sun Heavenly Pond was completely free from confinement!

In the Heavenly Pond, the wounds on the Rule Crystal Ball quickly healed, restoring its original appearance.
