Chapter 1465: Chapter 1433: Foundation Above Harmonization

In the end, Yuan and the others accepted this outcome.

The Central Array Spirit Computer of the Xianmen Sect is ultimately the foundation of the sect, incorporating the divine souls of virtuous sages who perished over the generations, and serves as the basis for Xianmen’s Immortal Science and Immortal Industry.

It can be said that if the Central Array Spirit Computer is no longer trusted, the Xianmen Sect is destined to face annihilation.

Jiang Ding was awake for a while, communicating with Yuan and others. After especially digesting and absorbing the result of ‘changing the rules’, he affirmed Yuan’s speculation.

He shared some of his views and learned about the current situation.

His injury was far from recoverable. The power of the silver-white sword qi was too troublesome and was particularly adept at dealing with sword cultivators. Even if it was just a sliver, eroding it wasn’t easy.

However, engaging in battles with higher-order powers wasn’t entirely detrimental.

Through such repeated struggles, his divine soul and mana were continuously refined, steadily advancing beyond the limits of his cultivation method, stepping to the next level.

This more refined mana, already apparent, will inevitably provide significant reference support for the further development of Xianmen’s skill in the future.

When he wakes up, perhaps surpassing the past Great Sun Sword Pavilion in Xianmen’s skill and getting closer to a true upper realm immortal sect isn’t a fantasy but a goal that can tangibly start to be pursued.

Additionally, there were groundbreaking developments in the Ancient Divine Domain world cluster, which Jiang Ding was extremely concerned about.

After nearly a thousand years of probing by the Nine Great Immortal Sects, the intelligence on the Ancient Divine Domain is gradually becoming known, and there are primarily three major forces present there.

Nine Immortals Alliance, comprising another batch of seeds from the Nine Great Immortal Sects of the Upper Realm based in the Ancient Divine Domain, the Ten Thousand Clans Alliance made up of various demon race aliens that are remnants of the Ancient Divine Path, and the Ancient Divine Path established by the remaining disciples of the Ancient Divine Path, though not recognized and often regarded as the Devil God Sect.

After forming alliances internally, these three forces have been fighting each other for hundreds of thousands of years.

At the same time, there is considerable infighting within these three forces, and it’s quite complex.

For example, within the Nine Immortals Alliance, the strongest Heavenly God Palace once produced a power expected to surpass the realm of Harmony, potentially unifying the Ancient Divine Domain under the Nine Immortals Alliance.

The final outcome for this formidable figure was being hunted by all forces, including the Nine Immortals Alliance itself.

This situation sporadically occurs in the Ten Thousand Clans Alliance and the Devil God Sect. The Devil God Sect was in fact established by numerous past inner and outer disciples of the Ancient Divine Path taking advantage of the great chaos to seize core legacies, not the most core disciples of the Ancient Divine Path, and it’s equally factionalized within, with no individual able to suppress all the experts.

In the history of the world cluster of the Ancient Divine Domain, anyone with the potential to surpass the realm of Harmony quickly invites joint hunts, be they internal or external.

Even if the potential to surpass Harmony is only a mere ten or twenty percent, it would still evoke significant wariness from many forces.

This chaotic situation pleases the Nine Spirits Realm’s Nine Great Immortal Sects immensely, making them eager to take action.

However,

The most critical issue remains unresolved.

In those three interconnected medium thousand worlds surrounded by black fog, does an individual surpassing the realm of Harmony truly exist?

This remains uncertain to this day.

Hence, the Nine Great Immortal Sects dare not act rashly.

They will need at least several thousand more years, until they cultivate to the middle stage of Harmony, before they start further exploration and, after obtaining more detailed information, begin to act.

Why cultivate to the middle stage of Harmony and not a deeper realm?

Even with tens of thousands of years, the great powers of the sects can afford to wait.

However, the Horned Ming Realm was never wealthy to begin with and is occupied by nine Harmony-level forces, merely sustaining their cultivation to the middle stage of Harmony is already half a miracle.

This is what the Nine Spirits Realm achieved after enduring poverty for a long time, utilizing resources extremely efficiently.

But this is their limit!

The Nine Spirits Realm’s resources cannot, after sustaining nine Harmony-level forces, still give birth to late-stage Harmony cultivators, even in ten thousand years.

This means if the great powers of the sects do not wish to be stagnant in cultivation their entire life, they must expand.

As long as it is not a certain death scenario, they dare take risks.

Once the Eight Great Immortal Sects choose war, the Xianmen Sect will inevitably be dragged in, because if the Eight Great Immortal Sects become exceedingly prosperous and their power grows substantially, the Xianmen Sect will surely face destruction.

The war in the Ancient Divine Domain will surely come within at most four thousand years.

After understanding the current situation of the Xianmen Sect, confirming that there will be no catastrophic doom within a thousand years, Jiang Ding again fell into a deep sleep, caught in the brutal struggle of life and death with that silver-white sword Qi.

…

Time passed gently, years slipped by.

More than six hundred years unknowingly elapsed.

During this time, Jin Liu Venerable stepped down from the position of the Xianmen’s Deputy Governor, and Taoqing Venerable took over, guarding the mother star, and two Refining Nothingness cultivators emerged in the Xianmen Sect, still of Yuan and others’ generation of ancient transcendents.

During this period, Jiang Ding’s mother Lin Wanqiu and sister Jiang Yuan tried numerous times but ultimately failed to break through to Divinity Transformation, not even a sliver of possibility, and could only reluctantly enter the Sleeping Hidden Realm to await future opportunities.

Before entering the Sleeping Hidden Realm, they came to visit Jiang Ding, but he was still healing, yet to awaken, just as before.

Time continued to pass.

Another hundred years or so later.

On this day, the terrifying presence that had lingered over the healing chamber gradually subsided.

In the water-like Taiyi Green Wood Life Essence, a sixteen-year-old youth with black and white distinctive eyes opened his eyes once more to gaze at this world.

Somewhat dazed, then back to normal, he stood up, and clothing automatically emerged from his body.

Clang!

The Taiqing Flying Sword let out a faint sound.

As the life flying sword of a sword cultivator, it too had suffered terrible injuries, with its sword body pitted and scarred, with defects in many places, some parts even appearing broken, connected by just a sliver of the sword body.

“It’s nothing,”

“Rest assured, you and I will grow stronger…”

Jiang Ding gently stroked the sword handle: “The Thunder Sun Heavenly Sword Realm, especially that despicable Shu Gui Heavenly Monarch who dared to ambush me, and that power above the realm of Harmony, the owner of that sword talisman, I will surely give them their due retribution when the time is right.”

“It’s truly outrageous.”

“I’ve never met anyone so shameless.”

He stepped out of the healing chamber step by step, bid farewell to the many Refining Nothingness cultivators from the Xianmen Sect who came to greet him, attended various Xianmen banquets, and chatted with many old friends.

After participating in various interactions, Jiang Ding returned to the Xianmen Sect to start reviewing his spoils from a thousand years ago.

A storage ring, from the inheritor sword cultivator of the Thunder Sun Heavenly Sword Realm.

And a lifeless sword embryo.

“I am ninety percent sure that Fellow Daoist Guang Lei’s storage ring doesn’t contain anything too valuable… just like me.”

Jiang Ding picked up the storage ring, sighed slightly: “Someone as powerful and confident as I was, first left all my wealth at my home, Guang Lei Daoist cannot have not arranged this prior to his duel with the inheritor sword cultivator of the Great Yin Yang Sword Realm.”

His materialist sun sword intent surged into it, the action was quite rough, triggering many self-destructive restrictions, indeed, encountering an empty storage space.

Jiang Ding casually tossed it aside, causing it to burst into a cluster of sparks.

“However, this floating fortune is actually of little use.”

“The real spoils…”

Jiang Ding’s eyes burned as he looked at the lifeless Thunder Destruction Flying Sword.

“Is this eighth-tier sword embryo!”

“An eighth-order sword embryo refined from the eighth-order heavenly and earthly treasures, Destruction Thunder Flame Dao Crystal!”

“This is a heavenly treasure at the level above Harmony!”

“Just this one item might even surpass the value of several medium thousand worlds, taking up probably ninety-nine point nine nine nine percent of Fellow Daoist Guang Lei’s wealth, without exaggeration.”

“The foundation of my power above Harmony is already a definite answer.”
