Bombarding Cultivators with Cluster Artillery
Chapter 937 - 908: The Great Sun Heavenly Pond Again Under the Control of the Dari Swordsman

Jiang Ding traveled through the starry domain space, black as pitch, like a brilliantly luminous juvenile planet.

The sound and light effects of the Ten Thousand Li Radiant Sword greatly troubled him, a slight warning emerging in his heart, unaccustomed to this manner of travel that exposed him in front of everyone.

"I'm certain now."

"These sound and light effects are definitely intentional!"

Jiang Ding complained.

The heritage of the Great Sun Sword Pavilion was somewhat similar to that of natural creatures like the white-haired tiger or the colorful butterfly, primarily showcasing bright colors to warn predators and increase the difficulty of being captured, thereby sharpening their Sword Intent and Sword Heart.

An opponent, especially a suitable one, was a precious resource.

For the disciples of the Great Sun Sword Pavilion, they were an irreplaceable resource, necessitating a certain degree of protection and enhancement; otherwise, they could not achieve the optimal grinding effect.

Without achieving the optimal grinding effect, one could not break through... to Refining Nothingness Above!

This had been the singular goal of the Great Sun Sword Pavilion for hundreds of thousands of years.

Everyone, including the lives of the Dari Swordsmen, had to serve this purpose; it was not enough to simply train a Sword Master of Refining Nothingness—they disdained such limited aspirations.

If a Dari Swordsman couldn't possess the potential to reach above Refining Nothingness in this barren realm,

then they might as well die.

Fortunately, this was the heartland of the Xianmen Sect, and the Refining Void Great Formation was always ready to assist; otherwise, Jiang Ding would definitely have turned back immediately, only returning after he had modified his Escape Technique.

Jiang Ding zigzagged through the domain starry sky, occasionally passing close to Xianmen warships and Starry Sky fortresses, nodding in greeting.

He would sometimes enter one or two Minor Thousand Worlds through teleportation formations.

After more than a month, Jiang Ding arrived outside the Canghai Small World, left the boundary wall, and went deeper into the starry sky.

This time he traveled a great distance, moving through a meteorite belt and through the stark, dead silence of the starry sky.

Sometimes he encountered Nine Nether Chilling Winds sweeping through; all things would sink into desolation, and living beings would be silenced, which drastically changed his complexion, making him retreat quickly and wait for several months, ensuring that the Nine Nether Chilling Winds had completely passed before he dared to continue his journey.

Half a year passed unknowingly.

Jiang Ding, having left the Minor Thousand Worlds, flew for a long time in the dead silent domain starry sky.

Finally, he stopped in a vacant area of the domain starry sky, void of anything.

Jiang Ding glanced at the sky.

It was daytime, and the Sun Star Monarch was scattering countless rays of sunlight, burning everything, enough to kill any living being below Nascent Soul, and even those Nascent Soul Monks not paying attention were heavily injured.

However, these rays made Jiang Ding feel very comfortable; the mana inside his body became more lively.

"That's right."

"The Great Sun Heavenly Pond is right here."

Jiang Ding confirmed.

Following the crushing defeat of the Great Sun Sword Pavilion, their profound heritage treasure, the top-notch Refinement Void Fortress Dao Instrument, the cradle of the Dari Swordsmen, the Great Sun Heavenly Pond, was broken into pieces by the combined forces of the Xianmen Sect and the Eight Great Immortal Sects.

In the end, after confirming there was no threat left, the Nine Great Immortal Sects sealed the Great Sun Heavenly Pond within this piece of starry sky, and it has been 3,400 years since then.

"...Swordsman..."

"After hundreds of years... seeing you again, you have progressed a lot, no longer sneaking around... that's good..."

The gentle voice of the Moon Spirit of the Great Sun Celestial Pond came through.

Jiang Ding's face stiffened.

Who are you calling sneaky?

"Hmph!"

"Moon, you are an old relic, it's normal for you not to understand the tactics of the new era sword cultivators."

Jiang Ding formed a mana technique and took out a document.

Yellow-brown in color, but not a talisman; it was an official document titled 'Xianmen Great Sun Heavenly Pond Decree for Releasing the Seal', followed by a row of text, with Yuan's signature at the bottom along with the Great Seal of the Xianmen Governing Authorities, the Great Seal of the Citizens Assembly's Decision.

This was an official document authorized by the Xianmen Sect.

"Decree,"

"Unseal!"

Jiang Ding finished casting the last mana technique and shouted.

Boom!

A thunderclap echoed through the domain starry sky!

In the void that had originally been empty, cracks suddenly appeared, resembling spiderwebs, spreading rapidly like a shattered mirror.

Then with a thunderous break, countless fragments splattered in all directions.

Each piece of shattered space could penetrate an Immortal of Nascent Soul's shield and slay them.

This place had become a region of knife-like mountains!

Jiang Ding, expressionless, unfolded the Great Sun Immortal Sword Domain,

Within a radius of twelve hundred kilometers, swords of qi rose, bursting with light and splendor, carrying the momentum of heaven and earth, gathering Heavenly Earth Spiritual Qi and the essence of the sun and moon, the temperature soaring to tens of thousands of degrees Celsius in an instant, with each strand of sword qi being incredibly agile, roaming within the sword domain.

Countless space fragments splashed towards this area, first being melted by the high temperature containing the Great Sun Destroying Sword Intent within the sword domain, immediately followed by layers of resplendent golden sword qi rushing up, chopping the greatly weakened space fragments into nothingness, cleansing them away.

A few breaths later, the spatial tempest caused by the broken seal gradually subsided.

Jiang Ding fixed his gaze, his breathing slightly stalled.

What appeared before him was a rule-bound space tens of thousands of kilometers in size, crystal clear, naturally able to gather the light of the sun and stars within itself, even capable of swallowing and transforming the cosmic chaos into Heavenly Earth Spiritual Qi for its own continuous growth.

Originally, it was like this.

But at this moment, the crystal-clear rule-bound crystal ball was bound by nine huge mountain-like python black rune chains, deeply entrenched into the crystal wall, causing the crystal wall to show signs of minute shattering, occasionally leaking pale golden fluid, seemingly like blood, and was startling to behold.

Crack!

A crisp sound echoed through the void, among the nine chains, the one that contained starlight, electromagnetic forces, and also the Military Soul 'crowd', fractured at this moment, cracks appearing and soon spreading throughout the chain, a constant cracking sound, until the rune chain crumbled within the domain starry sky.

The Xianmen Sect's seal had undone itself!

With the unlocking of the Xianmen Sect's rune lock chain, a massive flaw suddenly appeared in the nine great seals, the tightly bound crystal wall began to recover, showing signs of revival.

Suddenly, eight other seals sensed something and began to contract, resealing the Great Sun Heavenly Pond.

The breath of revival was thus halted.

Jiang Ding examined the Great Sun Heavenly Pond closely.

It was approximately ninety thousand kilometers in size, spherical in shape but most areas were devastated, some filled with terrifying Elimination Method radiation dust, some dark shadowy abysses, some poisonous Qingmu forests, some cursed by the Incense Spirituality, or mixed with many other auras... it was a death zone for all living beings.

Only the very center, a few hundred kilometers area, barely maintained some vitality.

This Refinement Void Fortress Dao Instrument from the Great Sun Sword Pavilion, the cradle of a Dari Swordsman, now looked too tragically desolate.

"Swordsman, the seal has a significant breach."

"The Great Sun Heavenly Pond has begun to recover, estimated to wear down the Eight Great Immortal Sects' seals in about 2,700 years, by then, we must root out each of the Nine Great Immortal Sects one by one, killing both Divinity Transformation and Refining Nothingness monks... stabbing each one to death..."

Yueling's voice was gentle, like a pretty big sister from next door, yet the content of her speech was rather merciless.

"Correction, it's the Eight Great Immortal Sects."

Jiang Ding, expressionless.

"Oh,"

"Then it's the Eight Great Immortal Sects."

Yueling didn't object to anything, gently speaking.

Jiang Ding's Divine Sense followed the crack revealed by the removal of the Xianmen seal, surged into the Great Sun Heavenly Pond, locating the core of the Heavenly Pond.

Then, his mana and Divine Sense, along with Sword Intent, infused into it, intending to refine and gain control of all the formation methods within the Heavenly Pond.

Including the seemingly rebellious Yueling.

There was no difficulty, quite smooth.

It could even be said that it was easier than breathing, many formation methods within the Great Sun Heavenly Pond, including the rebellious Yueling, were cooperating with him, cheering in excitement, welcoming his arrival and helping him to leave a Divine Soul Brand on the core of the Great Sun Heavenly Pond, smoothly controlling everything.

Jiang Ding closed his eyes, mana and Sword Intent continuously flowing, gradually refining the Great Sun Heavenly Pond, letting time pass by.

Three years later,

The final Divine Soul Brand imprint was completed.

Hum!

Buzzing!

The Great Sun Heavenly Pond buzzed and vibrated, its brilliance incredibly splendid, the Heavenly Pond spontaneously rotating, cracking open slivers of seals, instantly making its ability to gather the Great Sun's light and transform Spiritual Qi from the chaos increase more than tenfold.

"It's a success."

Jiang Ding opened his eyes, numerous insights emerging in his mind.

After three thousand four hundred years,

The Great Sun Heavenly Pond once again returned to the hands of a Dari Swordsman!
