Bombarding Cultivators with Cluster Artillery -
Chapter 774 - 755 Beyond the Interface of the Starry Sky
Jiang Ding picked up another report from the Tushan maiden group's central courtyard.
As the battle lines continued to lengthen, the demands on logistics kept increasing. The distance between Tushan Immortal City and Yin Clan's Great Prairie was simply too far, a journey of more than a dozen years, which was extremely disadvantageous for the war.
Therefore, fifty-six maidens from the central courtyard jointly requested the establishment of a second Tushan Immortal City in the heartland of the Black Snow Prairie, to gather a large number of cultivators with various skills, to provide the army with magic tools, treasures, elixirs, talismans, and other logistical needs, and to establish trade relations more conveniently with forces such as the Blood King Army.
In the future, if the battle lines can be pushed further, they also plan to establish a third and fourth Tushan Immortal City, increasing the number of logistical centers.
"Approved."
Jiang Ding wrote down two spiritual script characters on this document.
To this day, Tushan Immortal City and the Tushan maiden group have brought in over a billion low-grade spirit stones in taxes every year for him!
Although the vast majority are first, second, and third-grade heavenly material and earthly treasures, with very few of the fourth grade, it was still a significant fortune, covering more than half of the yearly cultivation expenses.
The Tushan maidens have done very well in this respect.
Although the loyalty of many has been continually decreasing, even to the point of intense murderous intent, they have not acted in disobedience in this matter, thinking themselves clever enough to deceive both their superiors and subordinates.
They still have some bottom line.
After finishing everything, Jiang Ding looked in the direction of the Great Sun Sword Sect, receiving information from his concealed avatar.
"Good, everything is normal with the Great Sun Sword Sect; it hasn't grown legs and run away, which is enough," he muttered.
"In addition, Immortal Da'ai's Da'ai King's Army is in critical danger under the fierce attacks of the sword cultivators, showing signs of collapse."
"The concealed avatar is executing the highest standard of infiltration, and has already influenced a Sword Intent cultivator, coincidentally helping him comprehend Sword Intent and successfully become a core disciple of the Great Sun Sword Sect, expanding the information channels and making the monitoring of the Great Sun Sword Sect more accurate."
"Overall, everything is stable, with no major issues."
Jiang Ding murmured to himself as his figure vanished from sight.
...
In a white jade-built Guanghan Immortal Palace, weaving through the cold, lifeless domain.
Gazing in all directions, there were no stars twinkling densely in the starry sky.
A sun hung eternally unchanged, casting rays of light that, though not bright, contained True Sunfire into the domain between worlds.
The light continually eroded the mana and divine souls of all beings. Now and then, cold and bone-piercing winds of the underworld blew through the domain, flaying and corroding anything in their path.
Without special protection, even an Immortal of Nascent Soul could survive in this domain for only over a month at most.
Even for Divinity Transformation Heavenly Monarchs, prolonged travel in the domain could be exceedingly dangerous, especially in unfamiliar domains where there was a considerable risk of getting lost.
If one were to get lost for decades, even a Nascent Soul cultivator could die from drained mana and divine soul.
Day and night shifted, completing a cycle every three years.
The sun set, and a bleak crescent moon rose high in the starry sky. The scorching True Sunfire turned into the cold Taiyin Divine Light, under which everything froze.
A young girl in a moon-white fairy skirt stepped out of the palace gates at this moment, gazing at the newly emerged Taiyin Star, as her Life Flying Sword vibrated with excitement, expressing joy.
But she knew this was an illusion. She was not yet capable of confronting the Taiyin Star in the domain.
This person was Taiyin Swordsman Yu Qianzi.
The Green Wood Immortal Sect bordered the Xianmen Sect, and many years ago they had established a lengthy buffer zone between them, forbidding both sides from stationing troops or setting up teleportation formations, allowing only travel by flying.
The domain between worlds was infinitely vast, far beyond the imagination of low-ranking cultivators.
It had been twenty years since Yu Qianzi left the Xianmen Sect. Only now was she nearing the end of her journey, approaching the Small World controlled by the Green Wood Immortal Sect.
"Divine Moon Master,"
Yu Qianzi paused, turning her gaze toward a corner of the Guanghan Immortal Palace.
There, a blue-skirted woman with an indifferent face sat cross-legged with a longsword resting on her knees, rejecting the protection of the Guanghan Immortal Palace and facing the Taiyin stars of the domain head-on, absorbing the Taiyin Divine Light for cultivation.
Green Wood Immortal Sect, Divine Moon Heavenly Monarch!
As a Taiyin Swordsman, Yu Qianzi naturally could not travel alone, and this Divine Moon Heavenly Monarch had come to pick her up.
This Divine Moon Heavenly Monarch was one of the peak powerhouses among the Nascent Soul Cultivators of the Green Wood Immortal Sect, a Sword Cultivator of the Moon Vein, trustworthy.
"Divine Moon Master Uncle,"
Yu Qianzi asked, "Do you think the sect will allow a Refinement Void Swordsman to emerge within the Moon Vein?"
It was an abrupt question, but none of the Moon Vein Sword Cultivators would find it surprising.
A Magic Cultivation sect, would it allow the birth of a Swordsman of the Refinement Void level?
This was a question all Moon Vein Sword Cultivators had carefully pondered.
Although they were disciples of the same sect, there were still divides among them.
The appearance of a Sword Master of Refining Nothingness could very likely instantly flip the sect's hierarchy, with Sword Cultivators overturning their present status.
The Magic Cultivators within the Green Wood Immortal Sect would not simply watch as such an upheaval threatened their very livelihood and cultivation path.
Especially since the legacy of the Green Wood Immortal Sect's Moon Vein originated from the Daymoon Sword Pavilion, not from the sect's own native teachings.
Although after several hundreds of thousands of years, the initial batch of Moon Vein Sword Cultivators had all perished, and the current disciples were born and raised within the Green Wood Immortal Sect.
But still, many harbored worries in their hearts.
The Divine Moon Heavenly Monarch did not speak; instead, the sound of sword cries emerged from the void, coalescing into a sentence.
"Swordsman,"
"The legacy of the Great Sun Sword Pavilion, fragmented as it may be, might still be able to support the birth of a Refinement Void Swordsman."
The Taiyin Sword Sect was the result of the Eight Great Immortal Sects compromising over the legacy of the Great Sun Sword Pavilion, a sect formed by assembling Sword Cultivators from all eight sects.
Introducing the Taiyin Swordsman was the Green Wood Immortal Sect's attempt to advance further, even casting its gaze to the strategic part above the stage of Refining Nothingness.
"Is that so?"
Yu Qianzi sighed.
She understood once again, the Green Wood Immortal Sect would not help in breaking through Refining Nothingness; that was reserved exclusively for Qingmu Taoist disciples, sharing not a shred of it.
Perhaps, in the sect's plans, a weak Refinement Void Level combatant, aiding the Qingmu Taoist disciples generation by generation in their rule, such a result would be the most perfect.
The Divine Moon Heavenly Monarch coldly observed this scene, offering no comfort.
"How could a Great Sun Swordsman do it?"
Yu Qianzi said indignantly.
"The difference between him and the Eastern Devil School is even greater, and they are inheritances of archenemies!"
"This is not fair!"
Among the Eastern Devil School, known for its group combat, an individual Great Sun Sword Cultivator with outstanding capabilities should have been met with fear, rejection, and suppression from the old powers, or even have been snuffed out in infancy.
Because the rise of a Great Sun Sword Master would undoubtedly shake up their collective decision-making and leadership—a glaringly obvious outcome.
"I do not know."
The Divine Moon Heavenly Monarch finally opened her eyes, revealing a puzzled expression.
She could not understand why her old adversaries would allow a potential threat to grow, even going so far as to vigorously support it.
"Perhaps they do not have a Refining Nothingness inheritance?"
"Or maybe, as 'outsiders,' they feel insecure within their domain, and under immense pressure, they are recklessly bolstering their strength?"
