Bombarding Cultivators with Cluster Artillery
Chapter 748 - 729 The Alliance Between Zhengmo League and Great Sun Dharma Sect

```

Jiang Ding checked Immortal Burning Bone's storage bag.

As expected of a Great Sect's Nascent Soul Immortal, the items he carried were of such tremendous value, with the worth of just the fourth-grade Heavenly Material and Earthly Treasure and Nascent Treasure surpassing that of Divine Crow Immortal and Beast Spirit Immortal City.

The only reason the total amount was less was that a Mid-stage Nascent Soul Cultivator disdains carrying lower-grade items.

Third-grade Heavenly Material and Earthly Treasure was already the limit, while items below the first and second grade served no purpose other than occupying space in the storage bag.

"Immortal Burning Bone, you weren't a good Sword Cultivator,"

"A true Sword Cultivator is always poor, how could you have amassed such wealth?"

Jiang Ding sighed.

"Poor yet powerful is the true essence of the Sword Dao," he said.

Just like him.

Don't look at all he had seized now; the number of Low-grade Spirit Stones had recovered to over ten billion, but give him ten more years, and he could spend it all, not leaving a speck behind.

By then, if a Great Expert killed him, he would ensure not even a hair could be seized from him.

As for the Life Flying Sword, it was useless to others and could only be discarded.

The reason Immortal Burning Bone was like this was probably because he was caught in a bottleneck, unable to refine his Flying Swords further with such wealth, lacking in talent and creativity.

Simply put, his spending capacity was lacking.

He put down the storage bag.

"True Master Yin Jiu..."

Jiang Ding's eyes showed anticipation as he probed into the Lone Wolf True Master Yin Jiu's storage bag with his Divine Sense.

"Low-grade Nascent Treasures, shields, orbs, small knives, six of those; two medium-grade Nascent Treasures!"

"The Super Sun Vessel has its provisions now!"

"A large number of Heavenly Material and Earthly Treasure, countless mortal and Cultivator Vital Souls, numbering in the hundreds of millions..."

Jiang Ding frowned and continued reading.

"Many fourth-grade Heavenly Material and Earthly Treasure, even more third-grade ones piled up like mountains, and there's even a portion of excellent first and second-grade materials. True Master Yin Jiu seems to really have had plans to establish the Poison Sword Sect..."

"Excluding the Vital Souls that need redemption, the remaining high-grade bones, zombies, and the like are also to be recycled. Xianmen Sect can handle them; they can't be wasted. The sins are not of my doing, they have nothing to do with me, and I even avenged them."

"Justice is powerful, and I can't afford to have a lower utilization rate of resources than Diabolism," he mused.

"Total value..."

"Eighty-three billion Low-grade Spirit Stones!"

"Of which, fourth-grade materials account for fifty-five billion Low-grade Spirit Stones!"

"So much money!"

Jiang Ding took a deep breath and calculated in his heart, "My total assets have now reached..."

"Two hundred and one billion Low-grade Spirit Stones!"

"Immensely rich!"

"Ah! The super-rich Heavenly Monarch Jiang!"

This was still without converting the large amount of fourth-grade Heavenly Material and Earthly Treasure, Treasures, and Talismans into Low-grade Spirit Stones. If he were to recklessly convert them, his assets would soar even more.

But of course, Jiang Ding wouldn't do such a thing.

If he really fed the Taiqing Flying Sword items meant for cultivators at the Qi cultivation stage, she would be angry, and the refining progress would become extremely slow.

On the contrary, the Taiqing Flying Sword had a massive appetite for fourth-grade Heavenly Material and Earthly Treasure, and she could happily digest even Divinity Transformation-stage items.

If it weren't for Xianmen Sect's powerful high-grade Heavenly Material and Earthly Treasure synthesis industry, Jiang Ding wouldn't have been able to afford her.

"Two hundred and one billion Low-grade Spirit Stones..."

"Plus the annual income of forty to fifty million Low-grade Spirit Stones from Tushan Immortal City, if the Scorching Sun Spirit Iron is completed and the refining speed skyrockets, I could use it… for twenty years!"

Jiang Ding calculated and took a cold breath.

Taoist disciples are so hard to raise!

They can be called super gold-consuming beasts!

The previous Great Sun Swordsman, during his youthful days wandering in the Northern Plains, probably suffered from chronic malnutrition, causing stunted growth.

It is possible that after ascending to Divinity Transformation, it would take thousands of years to compensate for the deficiencies of his youth, and he might not even reach the perfect state of the Great Sun Swordsman.

...

Liudao Sect, Returnless Mountain.

In ancient times, this mountain was known as Yin Yang Magneto Spiritless Mountain, where the Primordial Magnet's force was frantic, the five elements were forbidden, and the sky often shone with black and white magnetic divine lights. Creatures within thousands of miles perished, making it one of the ten great forbidden lands of ancient Northern Plains.

Countless millennia ago, the Ancestor Master of Liudao Sect subdued this land by setting up the Six Dao Reincarnation Formation, using powerful Mana to pacify this forbidden area, eradicating demons and harmonizing the ley lines across thousands of miles, establishing the Sect and once ruling the entire Northern Plains during ancient times.

Later, with the support of Shuoyang Heavenly Monarch, it was overtaken by families such as Yin's, who transformed the Sect into a clan stronghold.

Even though Yin Yang Magneto Spiritless Mountain had been subdued, occasionally, intense blue magnetic storm lights would burst forth in the sky, throwing the five elements into chaos, causing even Nascent Soul Immortals to be caught off guard and prove embarrassingly inadequate.

It was rumored that this mountain was located at the pole of the world, with endless Yin Yang Primordial Magnetism inside, containing a strand of Heaven-Earth Primordial Magnet Divine Light. The Ancestor Master of Liudao Sect had subdued it, making it part of the Sect's foundation. Once unleashed, even gods and ghosts would fall.

Even in the past, it withstood multiple sieges by Great Sun Sect's Nascent Soul Monks but never fell. Surviving to this day, it stands as the leader of the Righteous and Diabolic Alliance's Diabolism.

At this moment, within the ancestral hall with its dark black luster, the incense was curling up, and after being postponed for several years, a crisp crackling sound finally emerged.

"Who has died?"

```

"The Great Sun Sword Sect and the Great Sun Dharma Sect, huh?"

The Immortal of Nascent Soul who was on duty in the Ancestral Hall suddenly opened his eyes, filled with anger, murderous intent, and also fear.

A moment later,

upon seeing the shattered soul tablet, he calmed down completely, shaking his head slightly, not knowing whether it was out of hatred or delight.

"He, he's actually dead..."

Several messages flew out from the Ancestral Hall, causing some ripples in the Liudao Sect where the Yin Yang Magneto light was bursting and flickering from time to time, but soon settled down.

On a towering peak that ranks second only to the main peak, beneath it the words "Tian Chou" are written.

This is the place where Immortal Tianchou cultivates in solitude.

As the direct descendant of Six Fingered Old Demon, the strongest practitioner of Diabolism in the Northern Plains families, and the father of Yin Dao, the Six Dao Saint, his standing within the Liudao Sect was extremely high, and he was one of the first to receive the news.

"Hahaha..."

"Yin Jiu, that Mixed Blood, is dead, Mixed Blood is Mixed Blood! It's just his fate!"

Immortal Tianchou laughed heartily, evidently very pleased.

He appeared delicate and handsome, looking no more than in his twenties or thirties, having cultivated the Tiaren Transformation Method of the Liudao Sect to a profound level. His eyes, nose, ears, hair, and skin were all from different Cultivators with exceptional talents, surpassing peers of his level.

At his side, an old Cultivator with a stern and upright demeanor watched silently, a flicker of murderous intent crossing his mind before hiding it away.

The robe on his chest was emblazoned with a brilliant golden Great Sun.

This was the insignia of the Great Sun Dharma Sect.

"Haha, Yun Yang, my friend, please don't blame me."

"I forgot that you too come from that lowly Mixed Blood lineage."

After laughing for a long time, Immortal Tianchou finally stifled his laughter and repeatedly apologized, "I've killed Yin Jiu's entire family; I've long wanted to kill him but the clan wouldn't allow it. It took a lot of scheming to finally kill him, surprisingly easy."

"I was momentarily indiscreet, momentarily indiscreet."

Although he was continuously apologizing, the tone of his voice was piercing and overflowing with disdain.

"Yin Jiu is dead?"

The stern and upright Elder of the Great Sun Dharma Sect showed no signs of irritation but was visibly surprised, "This man was adept at fleeing and had quite a bit of a death-defying spirit, yet he ended up dead."

"Was it because the Nascent Soul Immortals of the Great Sun Sword Sect couldn't tolerate him anymore?"

"It must be so."

Immortal Tianchou chuckled and paused, his face betraying a look of regret, "He really is dead; it's actually a bit hard to let go. He was quite a good chess piece that could sow discord within the Great Sun Sword Sect, and within your Dharma Sect.

We could have established a new family alliance, the family name to be passed down for tens of thousands of years, living harmoniously without constant fighting, ensuring the Immortal Path remains evergreen."

"He was such a good example."

"Unfortunately, now that Yin Jiu is dead, many Daoist friends who were originally inclined to join us may now hesitate and lose trust."

Immortal Tianchou felt intense regret, knowing that the overall situation had shifted again, moving in a direction unfavorable for both the alliance of righteousness and devilry and the Liudao Sect.

Of course, this was regret that only emerged after the death of True Master Yin Jiu.

The vengeance for the annihilation of his family and the murder of his mother was something Immortal Tianchou believed True Master Yin Jiu could never forget.

Even if he had forgotten, Immortal Tianchou would not believe it. He would still choose to kill him first and then consider the greater situations of the Liudao Sect and the alliance of righteousness and devilry.

"Thus, Yin Jiu's death is indeed good news."

Immortal Yun Yang of the Great Sun Dharma Sect nodded his head in agreement.

The so-called Mixed Blood, Pure Blood, lowly, noble, these in his eyes were nothing more than trifle matters.

Many Northern Plains families' Nascent Souls and Golden Pill Monks were tortured and killed at their hands, wailing in pain. Even families with thousands of years of heritage were personally exterminated by them whole, so they no longer cared about such derogatory language.

These people were merely soon-to-be-dead bones in their graves.

"Friend Tianchou,"

"So, how does your sect consider our proposed alliance to first eradicate the Great Sun Sword Sect?"

Immortal Yun Yang asked, "Such pure Sword Sects are too extreme. If they don't engage in external conquests for a while, they might even self-destruct internally.

Once Jianyang recovers from his injuries, they will surely set out. A bloody war among the Nascent Soul level is imminent, as Nascent Soul Sword Cultivators must grow through such battles."

"We might as well strike first."

"Indeed, friend."

Immortal Tianchou sighed, "But didn't we try it last time? Our two sects were wary of each other, and when combining forces, we were less powerful than when acting alone. We besieged the Great Sun Sword Sect for many years but still had to retreat."

"Now, with our fellow Daoists' hearts settled and both my father and Senior Tian Gui injured, convincing them is really difficult."

"There's nothing we can do about it."

Immortal Tianchou then made a suggestion.

"What about establishing a defensive alliance against the Great Sun Sword Sect, through a Daoist Pact? The moment the Great Sun Sword Sect mobilizes, we will join forces to eliminate them. This is the perfect opportunity now that they have left their sect's grand formation, significantly weakening their strength.

"Please note, in times of no war, we Magic Cultivators grow faster than Sword Cultivators, so there's no fear in delaying the time."

"A mutual defense agreement?"

Immortal Yun Yang furrowed his brows, and then they smoothed out.

"Alright."
