Bombarding Cultivators with Cluster Artillery
Chapter 740 - 721: The Arrogance of Xu's Divinity Transformation from Years Past

In the world of immortal cultivation, a phenomenon often occurs where the development of a region's Immortal Path civilization completely relies on a single person.

This is indeed terrifying; the top cultivators possess Divine Souls with computational powers, knowledge reserves, and talents hundreds, thousands, even tens of thousands times greater than ordinary humans, to the extent that their explorations are incomprehensible and untouchable by mortals, let alone comparable.

The Great Sun Sword Master and his Swordsmen of the Great Sun Sword Pavilion are typical representatives of this type.

"That's an exaggeration,"

Canghai Heavenly Monarch did not agree with the words of his comrades around him, "After all, the cultivation world is all about results. The Great Sun Sword Pavilion has been defeated, no matter how they lost."

"Since they've been defeated, it means that their path has enormous flaws, and in some aspects, Xianmen is bound to surpass the Great Sun Sword Pavilion."

"Indeed,"

"You're also right, that's the logic,"

After a moment of contemplation, Divine Mechanism Heavenly Monarch didn't argue and agreed, "At least, Jiang Ding's explosive burst of inspiration, the ability to quickly turn it into a real prototype, the system of Xianmen played a significant role.

Otherwise, by relying solely on the Great Sun Sword Pavilion, they might not be able to manage it in five hundred years; they have talented fighters, but researchers..."

"Not to look down on anyone, but if you tie up Xianmen Science Institute's hands and feet, gag their mouths, and only let them move their eyelashes, even then, they would be better at research and development than the Great Sun Sword Pavilion."

"Hahaha!"

The surrounding Heavenly Monarchs burst into laughter.

"Don't exaggerate too much, they have a large scale and many strong individuals, they are not as bad as you say... Leave one hand and one foot, that's more objective."

The chat group of Heavenly Monarchs was suddenly filled with cheerful laughter.

Unfortunately, only cultivators at the Mid-stage of Spirit Transformation could detect the waves of their Divine Sense frequencies. To the outside world, each of them seemed full of dignity, grave and steady, whereas Immortals of Nascent Soul could not see this.

"By the way, how are Xu Yan and Xia Sanqiu doing recently?"

"There haven't been any slip-ups with the seal of Xianmen Oath, right?"

Amidst the laughter, someone remembered something and asked.

"Of course, they are doing very well,"

The chubby Canghai Heavenly Monarch's eyes swirled with a cold murderous intent like deep-sea currents, but his face remained unchanged, smiling: "They are wealthy, controlling their own Small World, served by the commerce of the Eight Great Immortal Sects, with Spirit Stones plentiful enough to pave roads and Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures abundant enough to feed chickens and dogs. How could they not be living in bliss?"

"It's not like us, struggling to make a living by publishing papers."

"Wealthy tycoons... Haha!"

The surrounding Heavenly Monarchs laughed heartily, indifferent to their own modest circumstances, and not feeling embarrassed about it.

"Wait, I'll go check."

Speaking succinctly, one promptly went out to check and took quite a while before returning.

"No problem."

He reported back to everyone, "The Xianmen Oath is fine, still firmly affecting those two. According to the compromise treaty two thousand years ago, they are not allowed to contact the core secrets of Xianmen, disclose any of Xianmen's cultivation methods, or participate in internal politics, and none of these rules have been broken."

"With the strict surveillance of the Central Array Spirit Computer, there is very little chance of a problem."

"Furthermore, in our calculations, even in the most dangerous scenario where a Great Expert of Refining Nothingness with boundless wisdom suddenly has an epiphany and breaks the Xianmen Oath, causing the cultivation methods of Xianmen to be leaked, although it would be troublesome, it's not a big deal."

"Xianmen's strength is not in its cultivation methods,"

"but in its system."

It is often laughable in tales how, because of the leakage of certain cultivation methods, rivals readily find flaws and easily encircle and kill their enemies.

Are your cultivation methods so weak?

That there must exist a secret door or key point, and once touched by another, one could be killed?

Impossible!

Small sects might be like this, as that's the extent of their Ancestor Masters' legacies.

But for powerful Immortal Sects, there is no way!

Their Cultivation Method is magnificent and grand, hexagonal warriors strong in Divine Sense, Mana, Treasure, Divine Soul, and more; not a single aspect could be lacking.

"So what if you know about my Cultivation Method?"

"Do you have the matching cultivation foundation? Do you have the relevant talent base? Is there industrial support from the Immortal Path?"

"Do you really think you can just pick up a Domain Overlord's Cultivation Method and cultivate it, then advance to Divinity Transformation?"

"You mention flaws?"

"Do tanks have flaws? Do warships have flaws? Do nuclear bombs have flaws?"

"Ridiculously laughable!"

"The power is there; whoever dares to act rashly, thinking they've grasped the secret, will still be crushed with a single palm!"

"Xiamen Oath hasn't been leaked, uh-oh!"

"Those two are in for it."

Scholar of the Material Sciences College, Heavenly Monarch Wanji, said with schadenfreude, "Xu Yan cultivated the 'All-transforming Magnetic Origin Sutra,' just like our Dari Swordsman, but he cultivated a version from two thousand years ago."

"Back then, Xiamen was so poor it was falling apart, and the Cultivation Method was only developed to the initial stage of Spirit Transformation, with nothing beyond that."

"What is this kid's Cultivation Base now?"

He turned to ask.

"The peak of Mid-stage of Spirit Transformation. He's not lacking in resources and cultivates rapidly; he has been stuck for almost five hundred years."

Yuan voiced out.

"What a pity, then."

Heavenly Monarch Wanji shook his computer screen head, seemingly regretful.

"Senior,"

Heavenly Monarch Canghai, always called 'little fatty' before advancing to Divinity Transformation, didn't understand much and asked out of curiosity, "Didn't the Eight Great Immortal Sects provide him with a Cultivation Method?

"I saw in the intelligence that back then, there were threats from the Great Experts of the Eight Great Immortal Sects and covert persuasion, with even the Great Expert of the Five Elements Heavenly Sect, their ally, seemingly involved eventually leading Xiamen to compromise."

"No matter how you put it, the Eight Great Immortal Sects couldn't be lacking a Cultivation Method of the level of Spirit Transformation."

"They did provide one."

"It was even a Refinement Void Level Cultivation Method."

Yuan smiled, "A Great Expert from Xuanwu tiangong gave the two of them a copy of the 'Divine Heaven Thunder Scripture,' claimed to be a legacy of a True Immortal that would reach the level of Refining Nothingness and pave an easy path. They first gave half of it, and also gave the latter half with a seal added, which was the main reason for their defection."

"As for Xu Yan, he thinks of himself as a genius unparalleled in the Domain; proud and arrogant as the skies. He has made significant contributions to the development of Xiamen's Army Formations and the research of many Jing-level Cultivation Methods, known back then as the Great Sun Swordsman of Xiamen."

"He believed there was certainly deceit and traps from the Great Expert of Xuanwu tiangong, which was inevitable, but he could uncover and solve it, extract its essence and integrate it into his core Cultivation Method, thereby advancing to Refining Nothingness, achieving a lifespan of thirty thousand years, becoming unbeatable within the Domain, and allowing his family to prosper and rule for countless generations."

"Later..."

Yuan spread his hands: "It seems the outcome wasn't as he anticipated."

"It appears he took the collective wisdom of Xiamen as his own? I don't know why he had such an illusion, nor why he so underestimated the Masters of Refining Nothingness, believing with his own wisdom alone he could overturn everything."

"Now, he seems to be trapped in a stubborn and terrifying bottleneck, unable to break through Mid-stage of Spirit Transformation for all eternity."

Yuan stated calmly.

"In a way, they're fortunate, having been schemed against by multiple Masters of Refining Nothingness."

"This is a privilege that many Cultivators of Nascent Soul wouldn't even dare to dream of."

Traitors of Xiamen,

are doomed to not be trusted by anyone.

Especially those with exceptional talents, who cause Great Experts of Refining Nothingness to be wary; they would naturally make every effort to lock them down, destroy any chance of promotion, and let them contentedly remain pawns to constrain and disrupt Xiamen while enjoying wealth and honor. These would not be lacking.

Don't even think about absurd and laughable things.

It's not good for anyone.
