Bombarding Cultivators with Cluster Artillery

Chapter 1805: Chapter 1773: Cunning Old Friends

Jiang Ding remained silent.

He looked at the nine Harmonization God Monarchs, friends from childhood, seeing one aging being after another, each nearing the end of their life.

Is this birth, aging, sickness, and death?

Is this what every being must go through?

At this moment, he understood why many ancient beings finally chose not to annihilate the enemies who lagged behind them.

These enemies were the last traces of times gone by.

However...

All of this seemed too deliberate.

”Fellow Daoists,”

”If you have any thoughts, speak out? Why be so calculating?”

Jiang Ding said indifferently.

The things that just happened, although factual, seemed too intentional.

Too eager to provoke the Great Sun Sword Master’s nostalgia and reluctance for the past years.

However, while the tactics were rather ordinary, these God Monarchs indeed succeeded, as they truly were among those who understood the Great Sun Sword Master the best in the Endless Starry Sky.

The surrounding God Monarchs fell silent, exchanging glances.

”Hahaha!”

”Hahahahaha...”

Unrestrained laughter first came from the Shadow Demon Daoist, followed by the Heavenly Calculator Daoist, Qingmu Daoist, and others, each roaring with laughter, no longer showing any sadness or melancholy.

These individuals, although their age hasn’t changed, and their power remains, the sense of decline and decay suddenly vanished.

This was a youthful mindset, vibrant ambition, completely different from the serene transparency of the elderly.

These cultivators with strong ambitions for the path of Dao, even if they live for just one more day, will charge decisively towards the Heavenly Human Realm, forever refusing to yield!

”Hahaha!”

”It seems you have seen through us, Jiang Dingzi.”

The Heavenly Calculator Daoist laughed, bold and heroic, daring to challenge everyone: ”There’s not much, we just want to ask you how the Eastern Devil School views our advancement to Heavenly Man.”

”If the attitude is ambiguous, could you get something from Han Xuan for us, since we are of great use?”

The surrounding Harmonization God Monarchs all looked towards the green-clothed youth.

They are now in the late-stage Harmony realm, expected to reach the Harmonization Peak at around eighty to ninety thousand years old, at which time they will begin their first rule adjustment attempt.

Due to their weak foundation, their first rule adjustment will be extremely perilous and time-consuming.

—At this time, if the Eastern Devil School decides to obstruct them, they don’t even need to dispatch an army; just a bit of secret interference and they would instantly perish, with no chance of survival.

This kind of transformation is almost impossible to carry out outside the world because beings undergoing rule nirvana are extremely fragile and need constant protection and restoration by the Sect Array.

This is why they are so eager for the Eastern Devil School’s permission.

Otherwise, even if the Eastern Devil School suppressed them after they reached Heavenly Man, they would still choose to advance, emulating the Ancestor Masters and escaping into the Endless Starry Sky.

One after another, expectant, even pleading, gazes fell upon the green-clothed youth.

”Old friends, Dao hearts are so firm...”

Jiang Ding showed a slight smile.

This made the surrounding God Monarchs’ hearts tremble, with a guess that excited them wildly emerging in their minds, making them not quite dare to believe that the Eastern Devil School would have such a magnanimous spirit.

The result appeared immediately.

”The Xianmen Sect allows you to break through to the Heavenly Human Realm.”

”No obstruction will be made.”

Jiang Ding didn’t hold back and handed them a document issued by the public assembly: ”This is the decision of all the citizens, please work hard to advance, adding strength to the Immortal Tao Industrial System of the Xianmen Sect, while exchanging it for more industrial products for yourselves.”

The Xianmen Sect’s taxation on subsidiary civilizations and forces is relatively gentle compared to ordinary Immortal Sects, using higher-tech industrial products to exchange for the agricultural products, spirit mines, and various primary Immortal Tao industrial goods and intermediate products of subsidiary forces and civilizations.

There are also direct taxes, but they are symbolic, as a declaration of sovereignty.

Is the Xianmen Sect kind? Indeed, the Xianmen Sect is the light of righteousness in the Endless Universe Starry Sky, naturally kind.

Of course, the fact that this taxation method yields far more than the direct taxation of ordinary Immortal Sects is something not to be concerned about, unworthy of mention.

Moreover, this taxation method does not arouse resentment among the many creatures of subsidiary force civilizations.

”Allows us to break through to Heavenly Man?”

The Heavenly Calculator Daoist and others felt their hearts tremble.

They took the document from the Great Sun Sword Master and read it carefully, not missing a single word.

After so many years of dealing with the Eastern Devil School, they had long understood the uniqueness of this Immortal Sect, where decisions by individual powerhouses might not be effective, but those made by the public assembly are certainly concrete.

”It’s actually true...”

”In that case, a burden is lifted from our hearts.”

The Heavenly Calculator Daoist and others rejoiced greatly, bowing deeply: ”Thank you, thank you, Fellow Daoist.”

”No need,”

”This is a decision by the public assembly, why thank me?”

Jiang Ding shook his head slightly.

”Do you all have confidence in advancing to Heavenly Man?”

Jiang Ding bypassed this and asked.

”Confidence?”

Qingmu Daoist, Ji Liuyue and others shook their heads with a bitter smile.

”It’s no more than a desperate fight.”

”A one in a hundred chance would be good, the foundation is too weak, what can we do?”

An Tuzi laughed heartily and said: ”Refining Nothingness six times, rules nirvana six times, each more dangerous than the last, each time a near-death experience, is needed to advance to Heavenly Man.”

”Too difficult.”

”Not so.”

”Fellow Daoist An is too greedy.”

The Heavenly Calculator Daoist laughed: ”Since the first generation of the Heavenly Mechanism Immortal Palace Ancestor Master, our generation has had the best fortune, able to progress towards Heavenly Man without demanding more.”

”Perhaps, among our nine, one could become a Heavenly Man?”

They appeared free-spirited, full of hope for the future, having already endured countless life-and-death trials, the current difficulties seem insignificant.

”Then I wish you Fellow Daoists fulfill your desires.”

Jiang Ding stated his purpose: ”My visit this time, aside from visiting you Fellow Daoists, is to establish a Quasi-ninth Rank Inheritance Divine Gold project with you, to cooperate and discuss the refining of Quasi-ninth Rank Inheritance Divine Gold. I wonder if you could assist?”

This is essentially an order.

The Xianmen Sect will establish this scientific research project within the Eight Great Immortal Sects, and it is a permanent project. If this generation of Immortal Sect God Monarchs cannot solve it, then it will be passed down, generation after generation, until the Xianmen Sect’s purpose is accomplished.

”We will certainly do our best!”

The Heavenly Calculator Daoist and others said solemnly, joy appearing in their eyebrows.

Discussing the Dao and working together with the current Great Sun Sword Master is a great opportunity, sure to enhance their understanding of rules and greatly benefit their own cultivation, especially the future rule adjustments and nirvana.

”Haha, that’s very good.”

Jiang Ding, known for his decisive character, immediately began with them planning the design of the Inheritance Divine Gold Laboratory, including the construction location and more.

Once they consulted experts on Upper Qing Green Fall Meteorite Iron and other aspects and fully confirmed the laboratory’s blueprints, the construction team from the Xianmen Sect would arrive to assist the Great Sun Sword Master in completing the laboratory’s construction.
