Bombarding Cultivators with Cluster Artillery
Chapter 939 - 910: The Envoy Returns to Xianmen Sect with the Great Sun Heavenly Pond

The Great Sun Heavenly Pond was freed from its constraints.

With each breath, it engulfed and expelled primordial chaos from the void, transforming the Heavenly Earth Spiritual Qi for its growth. Within the pond, various Spirit Beasts and different Sword Dao Heavenly Material and Earthly Treasures cheered jubilantly, keenly sensing the dramatic changes occurring in the world.

"Come here."

Jiang Ding said softly.

Whir!

Whirr whirr!

The Great Sun Heavenly Pond spun like flowing light, breaking through multiple layers of space as it moved closer to Jiang Ding. Even at its initial speed, it was faster than the vast majority of Nascent Soul Cultivators.

The pond kept expanding, becoming larger and larger until it filled the entire field of vision, with no boundaries in sight.

Jiang Ding stood atop the Great Sun Heavenly Pond's crystal barrier, his heart filled with awe.

The Refinement Void Fortress Dao Instrument lived up to its name.

Standing here was like standing atop a planet, looking as far as the eye could see, all around were skies and clouds, constantly shifting winds and rain, with no end.

The only downside was that most places on this rule-based planet were covered with various malevolent spots: Elimination Method radiation, poisonous jungles, deep shadowy abysses… and so on.

The areas functioning normally comprised less than five percent.

Even so, it showcased an absolute dominance within the ranks of Divinity Transformation.

"It should be repairable… I can handle the Elimination Method radiation myself at least," Jiang Ding estimated.

If all went as expected, the Great Sun Heavenly Pond would accompany him for thousands or even tens of thousands of years. The future plans needed careful consideration to grow together, to repair bit by bit, and even surpass.

"Can I use this to kill enemies?" Jiang Ding asked expectantly.

"Against those of the same Level and the Level above, you cannot," Yueling said mercilessly.

"You can cultivate within the Great Sun Heavenly Pond, grow, use it as your chariot, or avoid enemies of Refinement Void level... Before it was damaged, it could also be used for nurturing subordinates, for anything really."

"But it cannot be used against enemies of the same Level or the Level above in combat."

"This is the most fundamental restriction put into the Great Sun Heavenly Pond by the previous Great Sun Sword Masters before their passings, and it is incredibly tenacious. If you wish to change it, you can consider advancing above Void Refinement."

"By breaking through above Void Refinement, you would become the Great Sun Sword Pavilion's new Ancestor Master, and you wouldn't have to heed any ancestral teachings."

"Is that so?"

Jiang Ding couldn't tell if he felt regret or relief.

The inheritance of the Great Sun Sword Pavilion truly didn't allow any room for complacency or slackening.

No matter how exalted your status, if you weren't strong enough, if your Sword Intent wasn't firm enough, it would discard you without hesitation, without sentiment.

"I'm tired from the journey, going to sleep…"

Jiang Ding yawned, walking towards the interior of the Great Sun Heavenly Pond.

Suddenly, his footsteps halted.

In the dark starry sky, a white point emerged, which moments later expanded into a vast expanse of the Guanghan Palace, dozens of kilometers in size, casting a pale, hazy moonlight, appearing like the homeland of the Moon Palace Fairy.

Yu Qianzi.

The Taiyin Swordsman from the Qingmu Immortal Sect.

After the war broke out between Xianmen and the Eight Great Immortal Sects, no one mentioned the Taiyin Sword Sect anymore, which combined the Sword Cultivators of the eight Sects, mainly for dealing with local wars against Xianmen.

With both sides breaking off relations, no longer maintaining a tacit understanding, no longer wary of each other, a Sect without Refinement Void Power was not needed anymore.

By now, Yu Qianzi had advanced to the Early Stage of Nascent Soul.

For Immortal Sect Disciples, this was a natural course of action; if not for waiting for the opportunity in the Yin Yang Void, they could have advanced much earlier, lacking neither Cultivation Method resources nor inheritance.

Nascent Soul Stage, Taoist disciple.

Jiang Ding's eyes narrowed slightly.

"Ding!"

"Before you is Yu Qianzi, the Deputy Envoy of Green Wood Immortal Sect to the Xianmen Sect."

The Central Array Spirit Computer quickly reminded.

"Deputy Envoy?"

Jiang Ding frowned and looked through the latest military intelligence.

In recent years, the relationships between Xianmen Sect and the Green Wood Immortal Sect, Shangqing Lingbao Sect, Dan Ding Immortal Sect, and other sects had once again become more cordial, with trade resuming as in the past. Both parties, including Masters of Refining Nothingness, could find what they wanted in domain trade, benefiting mutually.

Cultivators from both sides also began to interact more, especially outside the Mother Star in Xianmen's territories.

The Immortal Sect practitioners greatly disliked the Xianmen Sect's first rule and would not enter Xianmen's Mother Star unless it was absolutely necessary.

However, even so, not one of the Nine Great Daoists had ever come close to Xianmen's territory.

Had the situation now changed?

"Hey, Dari Swordsman!"

"What a coincidence."

Yu Qianzi greeted him with a smiling face.

Her skin was snowy white, and her melon-seed face was framed by a moon-white fairy skirt dancing in the wind, making her look like a Guanghan Palace Fairy, with none of the hostility one would expect from life-and-death battles in the Yin Yang Void.

"Hmm, quite a coincidence."

Jiang Ding nodded and turned to walk towards the interior of the Great Sun Heavenly Pond.

Before turning back,

he glanced at the foundational treasure of the Moon Vein, a fifth-grade Primordial Spirit Treasure of the Guanghan Immortal Palace.

He had often envied it immensely in the past.

Now...

Hmph!

"Hey!"

"Hey, hey!"

Seeing that he did not draw his sword, Yu Qianzi let out a sigh of relief and said somewhat anxiously, "Can't you just ask why I happen to appear here?"

"It's polite!"

"That's what my professor said when I was doing my master's at Qingfeng University!"

Jiang Ding paid her no heed.

He walked into the center of the Great Sun Heavenly Pond and glanced at the River of Sun Flame and the Moon Creek River, two rivers stretching for hundreds of kilometers.

Everything was as before, with no changes.

Along the two rivers grew many heavenly and earthly treasures, all related to the Sword Dao, including first- to fifth-order ones.

Especially the fifth-order ones, heavenly and earthly treasures suitable for cultivators at the level of Divinity Transformation, had been protected by the formations of the Great Sun Heavenly Pond over the years. As the Immortal Sect disciples without pond privileges could not harvest them, many had grown over the years.

"Not bad."

"Quite a fortune..."

Jiang Ding silently calculated, "Even if I only own half of it, it can satisfy nearly half of my demand for heavenly and earthly treasures at the Nascent Soul Stage. Of course, I won't take it all at once like a bandit; instead, I'll take a bit each year, focusing on sustainable development, and invest a large sum of Spirit Stones to nurture and cultivate at regular intervals."

"For this purpose, I can hire fifth-order Spirit Plant Masters, fifth-order Spirit Mine Masters, fifth-order Earth Vein Masters, and others from Xianmen."

"Cultivating year after year, by the time I advance to Divinity Transformation, and even higher realms, there will still be resources available, creating an inexhaustible source of heavenly and earthly treasures."

"Right, the secret realm of the Luoxu Sect in the Northern Plains. Once I advance to the mid-stage of Nascent Soul, I'll retrieve it and turn it into a Spiritual Medicine Garden."

"Now that I'm an Immortal of Nascent Soul, I should establish some industries for myself. Otherwise, I'll burn through all my resources, no matter how abundant."

Jiang Ding flew within the Great Sun Heavenly Pond, not tearing through space, but flying over each area. He used his Divine Sense to closely scan, assess and record, then jotted down notes in a notebook, planning how his home should be arranged in the future, the cultivation of fifth-order elixirs for refining his flying sword, nurturing fifth-order heavenly and earthly treasures, fifth-order spiritual plants, and so on.

Meanwhile, the Great Sun Heavenly Pond continuously spun and flowed, pulling its magnificent radiance through the domain, flying towards the direction of Xianmen's Mother Star.
