Bombarding Cultivators with Cluster Artillery

Chapter 2209: Chapter 2176: True Immortal Fairies Clash, Turmoil in the Endless Starry Sky

Jiang Ding looked toward the distant Starry Sky.

His gaze pierced through the Endless Starry Sky, as if it had arrived in the Sky Dragon Star Domain, arrived within the Destiny Dragon Emperor Heaven, beholding that Ten Thousand Dragons Imperial Hall whose aura was heavy and terrifying, as well as the Bixi, Yinglong, Suan Ni, Bi’an... and the other legendary True Dragon Forbidden Guard Nine Armies arrayed in defense around the Ten Thousand Dragons Imperial Hall.

At this moment, the Supreme Treasure of the Destiny True Dragon Immortal Dynasty, the Ten Thousand Dragons Imperial Hall, had already activated its world‑breaking power and locked onto this stretch of Cosmic Starry Sky.

The Ten Thousand Dragons Imperial Hall could descend at any time!

The target might be the Beidou Star Domain, might be the Sirius Star Domain, might be the Celestial Zither Star Realm... it could be any place!

Once the Destiny True Dragon Son descended upon any Star Domain, he could, in an instant, crush all rule of the Supreme Great Sun Dao Court over that Star Domain.

Within that Ten Thousand Dragons Imperial Hall, a pair of golden vertical pupils looked over toward this side, staring at the Supreme Great Sun Heavenly Palace.

All Human Race Supremes were drenched in cold sweat, instinctively giving rise to fear, as though being watched by an existence at the very top of the food chain, their instincts blaring madly in alarm.

Clang!

The ring of a sword resounded.

This sword‑cry spread out, dispersing all the heavy pressure, restoring the Supreme Great Sun Heavenly Palace to its former tranquility.

As if nothing had happened.

The various phenomena in the sky, the dreadful scene of the Ten Thousand Dragons Imperial Hall, and the terrifying pressure of the True Dragon Forbidden Guard Nine Armies all vanished without a trace.

”The situation has changed.”

”Benefiting from the enemy’s voluntary exposure, I have already successfully locked onto one hundred and one of the enemy’s Star Domain coordinates; the Nine Extremes Heavenly Ascension Road can be opened right now.”

Jiang Ding said calmly, ”Fellow Daoists who have registered, you may prepare to depart now.”

At the very moment when the Destiny True Dragon Son drove the Ten Thousand Dragons Imperial Hall to lock onto this Star Domain, the Ten Thousand Dragons Emperor Heaven had likewise been locked onto by the Supreme Great Sun Sword Fairy.

Now, the only obstacle to the final war was that neither True Immortal wished to descend upon the enemy’s lair, nor did they wish to descend into a Star Domain in which the enemy had already established a Formation Method.

One must know, a Star Domain Grand Formation is not merely a single Star Domain Grand Formation; it also links the meridians of many Star Domains, and through the Original Ancient Talisman can obtain the support of a vast number of Star Domain Grand Formations, innately placing the True Immortal who descends first a great step ahead.

This is a truly terrifying advantage of terrain, and it may well determine life and death.

Thus, before the final battle, it is exceedingly necessary to destroy the Star Domain Grand Formations within the territory of the opposing True Immortal; otherwise the final war will not begin.

Unless one True Immortal has already confirmed that their own strength far surpasses the other’s, enough to ignore the terrain advantage of the Star Domain Grand Formations.

”Yes!”

The many Sword Dao Venerables answered in a thunderous roar.

At the same time, the General Staff Department of the Supreme Great Sun Heavenly Palace began operating at full capacity, mobilizing the armies and fleets garrisoned in each Star Domain to rush toward the Star Domain battlefront, activating Formation Methods and preparing to meet the endless stream of invading enemies from afar.

...

Ten Thousand Dragons Emperor Heaven.

The Destiny True Dragon Son sat high upon the dragon throne, surrounded by the True Dragon Forbidden Guard Nine Armies. Innumerable Immortal Path Runes of space circled about him, with Destiny visions surging, as though at any moment he could cross the Cosmic Starry Sky to descend upon the Exotic Realm, stir up slaughter, unleash a dreadful war, bringing with it an intense sense of oppression.

At this time,

Clang!

Clang clang clang...

A terrifying shriek, like tide, like flood!

The aura of Elimination Method, Destruction, and Mutant emerged within the Ten Thousand Dragons Emperor Heaven, in an instant annihilating the layers of golden Destiny that had eternally existed here.

A strand of sword-light transcending Heaven and Earth cleaved straight in, slashing out along the pathway of the Ten Thousand Dragons Imperial Hall!

This sword was both illusory and real, and did not strike at any physical entity; therefore it could not be blocked.

One saw that the moment this sword appeared in the Ten Thousand Dragons Emperor Heaven, it split into a million swords, falling into the many Star Domains of the True Dragon Destiny Immortal Dynasty, forming one miniature Plane Channel after another, channels that could contain only a single person, scattered throughout the Starry Sky.

A million Plane Channels!

A million Sword Cultivators!

These Sword Cultivators walked out from the channels, appearing one by one in desolate stretches of Starry Sky. Near them lay a Star Domain, one Great Thousand World after another, one Minor Thousand World after another; they appeared in many random places, carrying upon them the aura of Destruction and slaughter, bearing a fierce longing, as though everything their eyes beheld was an enemy that could be cut down...

The ancient Nine Extremes Heavenly Ascension Trial of the Human Race had begun!

Their Cultivation Base ranged from Harmonization to Venerable; they would slaughter in the Exotic Realm, destroy every teleportation Formation, ascend here, grow here.

There were no restrictions of any kind!

Slaughter, without end!

”Human Race Sword Cultivators...”

Upon the dragon throne, the Destiny True Dragon Son said coolly, ”Transmit my order! Draw upon those experts skilled in speed and in tracking and divination to handle this. Use more to strike less, and annihilate this isolated force in the shortest time possible!”

A strand of intent was sent out, carrying with it the locations at which each Human Race Sword Cultivator had transmitted and descended.

”Yes!”

”Your Majesty!”

The Chongming Venerable of the Chongming Immortal Bird clan and the Tiding Venerable of the Tiding Immortal Clan said in deep voices.

The two Venerables led a large group of Venerables away. Most of these Venerables were of the bird clans, or of Immortal Clans with heterochromatic eyes; they were innately skilled in piercing concealment, tracking, and deducing and locking onto targets. With the aid of native Great Arrays and great armies, searching for some Supremes who had broken through the boundary to arrive and were isolated and without support was utterly effortless, with no difficulty at all.

...

Jiang Ding watched the distant Starry Sky.

At this moment, the True Dragon Fortune Great Dao and the Supreme Great Sun Sword Dao had already intersected; the powers of both sides were crossing hands across the long‑spanning Starry Sky, with fierce slaughter occurring at every instant, veiling Starry Sky coordinates and counter‑locking, each side deducing and unraveling the Great Arrays the other had laid between the Star Domains.

Their subordinates, the trillions upon trillions of Cultivators within the Starry Sky, were slaughtering under their will.

”Are you, in the end, strong—or weak...”

Jiang Ding murmured.

In the past, upon the Original Ancient Talisman, he had judged that there was a gap between the Destiny True Dragon Son and himself; yet at this moment the other party once more displayed a method beyond his expectations, abruptly locking the coordinates of many of his side’s Star Domains, casting everything back into mist, no longer allowing it to be clearly seen.

At this moment, as the two True Immortals confronted each other across the void, the True Original Ancient Talisman of the Endless Universe Starry Sky began to quake.

The Immortal Dao Universe Constant is not a fixed number, but something that changes at every moment, shifting with the changes in matter, Spiritual Energy, living beings, and the Great Dao in the Endless Universe Starry Sky.

The reason a True Immortal is a True Immortal is because they possess an empirical formula which allows them at any time to calculate an approximation of the true Immortal Dao Universe Constant.

Yet at this moment, this fluctuation suddenly intensified!

The change grew several times stronger in an instant!

The original empirical formula for the Immortal Dao Universe thus became incomparably obscure, suddenly acquiring many additional steps of calculation; even the precision of the Immortal Dao Universe Constant derived from it dropped sharply in an instant, and the strength of True Immortals was thereby affected in tandem, declining accordingly.

This would even affect the lifespan of True Immortals!

The souls, Mana, and Law Bodies of True Immortals are all derived from the Immortal Dao Universe Constant, brought to an extreme perfection; only thus do they attain a lifespan far surpassing that of Venerables, including Nine Tribulations Venerables.

Yet at this moment, this ”perfection” was no longer perfect.

Their lifespan thus declined, and time would be required to adjust before they could recover their original state, with even the risk that recovery might prove impossible. If this occurred in mid‑life, then in the latter half of a True Immortal’s existence, there was even the possibility they might suddenly pass into stillness, dying ahead of time.

”There are True Immortals... in battle...”

In that instant, several True Immortals within the Endless Starry Sky looked in this direction, and within their hearts arose a violent killing intent.
