Bombarding Cultivators with Cluster Artillery
Chapter 1253 - 1221: How Could There Be Such a Terrifying Early Stage Nascent Soul Cultivator!

Thunder Sun Heavenly Sword Realm!

The thunder sun Heavenly Sword Sovereign of the Realm that annihilated the Jiuyou Demon Abyss and the Spirit Treasure Realm!

Jiang Ding's heart trembled, and waves of shock rose within him.

Being the heir to the entire Great Sun Sword Pavilion's inheritance, he was privy to many secrets. What were the highest secrets of many domains were but common knowledge to him.

Two pieces of this common knowledge included:

The Shadow Demon Abyss originated from the Jiuyou Demon Abyss of the Upper Realm, one of the many seeds scattered into the endless unknown cosmic starry sky in times of great cataclysm!

The Shangqing Lingbao Sect, from the Upper Realm, is a Near Immortal-Level Sect of the Spirit Treasure Realm!

And now, a stranger who emerged from the Heavenly Tribulation, claiming to be the current Heavenly Sword Sword Son of the Thunder Sun Heavenly Sword Realm, has wiped out the forces of two Near Immortal-Level Sects.

Is this a lie?

Considering the 'great cataclysm,' a term shrouded in secrecy within the inheritance of the Great Sun Sword Pavilion, it appears not to be a skirmish between rival sects. Otherwise, they wouldn't be so desperate. The Nine Great Immortal Sects were all similarly desperate, crazily scattering their inheritance seeds beyond their realm.

Is it the truth?

Is it a lie?

None of these matter.

The power, genuinely undeniable!

"Your Excellency."

Jiang Ding closed his eyes slightly and then opened them again. Gradually, he gathered his Divine Sense, Mana, and Sword Intent and spoke with a heavy voice, "I am the Dari Swordsman of the Great Sun Sword Pavilion."

He did not reveal his name.

This was a clear sign of weakness.

A Sword Cultivator, not daring to reveal his own name straightforwardly to another Sword Cultivator.

"Great Sun Sword Pavilion?"

"You, bear some resemblance to the Sun Sword Child Yu Lingzi of the Great Yin-Yang Sword Realm, yet there are significant differences..."

The Heavenly Sword Sword Son muttered to himself, falling into contemplation.

Clearly, it was futile.

He was just an imprint of the Heavenly Tribulation, not a true Near Immortal-Level Swordsman with memories to contemplate, merely following the habits of the owner of the imprint.

Clang!

Amidst the thunderous celestial tribulation cloud that spanned tens of thousands of kilometers, came the resounding and annihilative sound of sword cries.

The green-clothed youth has drawn his sword.

The moment he drew his sword, lines of azurite electromagnetic illusions emerged within the ten thousand li of the heavens and earth, formed by the Primordial Magnet Order. They enveloped the entire world, omnipresent and pervasive, cloaking space. The Great Solar Magnetic Order took command over everything within the ten thousand li.

Jiang Ding did not feel he had the luxury to remain composed.

He seized the precious initiative, with his vast and blazing Sword Intent locking onto the living being within the thunder tribulation.

"Your Excellency!"

"Please enlighten me!"

Jiang Ding roared.

Boom!

A dazzling Great Sun appeared in the starry sky.

Its color, an interweave of pure gold and deep blue, carried the sharpness of causality and the Sword Dao, as well as billions of amperes of electrical current and volts of voltage crackling with noise.

This is the Golden Causality!

This is the sharpness of the Sword Dao!

This is the electric current!

These three elements composed this endless bright world, the terrifying pressure displayed between heaven and earth, causing the cosmic starry sky to seem solidified, entering a state of slowest motion.

Only that sword-light, that azure gold radiance, flew towards the Heavenly Tribulation in the sky.

Great Solar Magnetic Order Breaking Sword!

It is the Great Solar Magnetic Order Breaking Sword that has initially completed the fusion with the Immortal Technique of the Golden Causality!

"Indeed, there are many differences compared to Yu Lingzi, mixed and peculiar..."

The black-clothed swordsman in the thunder tribulation cloud slightly shifted his gaze.

Yet, he did not take much notice.

Clang!

He drew his sword.

This was a pitch-black longsword, as dark as the night sky, devoid of any impurities, and no amount of light from the entire starry sky could change it in the slightest. It was filled with an endless intent of thunderous destruction.

This is the purest order of thunderous destruction!

Destruction of all beings, the executor of heaven's punishment, holding the authority over life and death granted by heaven!

"Slash."

With a casual demeanor, the black-clothed swordsman in the thunder tribulation cloud drew his sword and slashed.

Shoo!

In the starry sky covered by the thunder tribulation cloud, gathered countless destructive thunders, constantly condensing and compressing, until finally, a pitch-black sword-light cut through the sky silently, carrying the supreme will of destruction, descending upon this patch of starry sky, with the pressure of a sovereign.

This beam of pitch-black sword-light, released later yet arriving sooner, appeared in front of the Bluegold Sun transformed by the Taiqing Flying Sword.

Then, it struck straight into the Sword Dao World.

Cosmic Starry Sky,

Seemed to solidify for a moment.

Boom!

Rumbling!

A terrifying explosion occurred between heaven and earth.

The order of thousands of miles of starry sky shattered, space dissolved, and even the rules were trembling. Gaps appeared in the rules of the Heavenly Dao, no longer aloof from the world, and the operation of the starry sky rules was greatly affected.

"Such a Sword Dao Realm..."

Jiang Ding's pupils contracted, sensing great peril.

Rip!

A sound like the tearing of fabric could be heard.

The Azure Gold Sword Dao World entangled with the pitch-black sword-light was torn apart from its very center. The swordsmanship of the Fifth Realm of Sword Dao was so fragile for the first time, encountering something akin to the scissors of the world, shattering with ease.

Ding!

The Taiqing Flying Sword made contact with the pitch-black sword-light!

In an instant, the Sword Dao World surrounding the Taiqing Flying Sword shattered, the Golden Causality on the sword, the Six Paths Order, all reduced to dust.

The speed and force capable of tearing apart a small planet vanished in an instant.

Boom!

The Taiqing Flying Sword, as if struck by lightning, a grain-sized gap appeared on it, the Spiritual Light dimmed as it retreated backward, its aura extremely weak.

"Pfft!"

Jiang Ding himself, just like his Life Flying Sword, spat out blood and retreated dozens of kilometers, barely managing to release the terrible aftershock with difficulty.

And this,

Was merely an ordinary, casual sword stroke from the opponent!

It wasn't even a case of realm suppression.

The opponent was also in the Early Stage of Divinity Transformation, newly promoted, fair to the point that even the most cunning person had nothing to say.

"Thunder Sun Heavenly Sword Realm!"

"Heavenly Sword Sword Son, Xuan!"

Jiang Ding stood up with the assistance of his sword, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, his gaze was blood-red with excitement, devoid of much fear, as if he had seen the ultimate delicacy.

Although, he had already considered the possibility of fleeing.

If this were not the Heavenly Tribulation, but an encounter in the Outer Realm.

"Is this the Sixth Realm of Sword Dao?"

Jiang Ding's gaze was intense.

It seemed that only this possibility could easily defeat him with a single sword strike.

"No, it's not."

"If it were truly the Sixth Realm of Sword Dao, and the opponent of the same realm, I would have died and couldn't have possibly survived."

Jiang Ding instantly overturned his guess: "This is the pinnacle of the Fifth Realm of Sword Dao, which has begun to spread into the Sixth Realm!"

"Incredible!"

"It's beyond imagination."

"What kind of environment did you grow up in, to have swordsmanship nearing the Sixth Realm immediately after breaking through the Divinity Transformation Stage? It's like a fantastical tale, exceeding my expectations."

Jiang Ding took a deep breath.

From beginning to end, he never considered himself inferior, the only difference was the environment.

In the past, Mingguang Zi had thought the same.

Now, it was Jiang Ding's turn.

The Black-clothed Swordsman in the Thunder Tribulation Cloud didn't answer the green-clothed youth's questions.

An opponent of such a rank deserved to know his name, but that was all, nothing more.

This person was not worthy of conversing with him.

"You,"

"are guilty."

The Black-clothed Swordsman in the Thunder Tribulation Cloud spoke indifferently, acting as the executor of divine punishment, designating the sinners appointed by heaven.

Rumbling!

In an instant, the Thunder Tribulation Cloud expanded several times larger, a heavy darkness filled the starry sky, devoid of all light, with only the thunderbolts flashing, bringing tremendous pressure, even causing the rules to distort.

"I am guilty?"

Fear and repentance involuntarily emerged in Jiang Ding's heart.

He looked around at the starry sky.

At this moment, all his five senses were darkened, Divine Soul, Divine Sense, even Sword Intent lost their responsiveness, and everywhere around him plunged into absolute darkness, no longer visible or clear.

He only felt waves of terrifying pressure pressing down, rendering him immobile, yet without knowing where the pressure came from or where to counterattack.

He had become a blind sinner, shackled in chains, with no room to resist and only able to await the agonizing moment when divine justice would be executed.
