Bombarding Cultivators with Cluster Artillery
Chapter 979 - 950 Six Realms Separation Yang Formation

After settling the matter of Immortal Yun Yu, Jiang Ding continued to look at the stack of Golden Core level documents, constantly giving directives.

The corruption of many Golden Pill Monks was alarming.

A large number of these cases were concentrated among those from Tushan Immortal City, who were in the late or peak stages of Golden Core, with life energy approaching its limit, almost becoming a common trait.

Especially those Golden Pill Monks whose life energy had reached its end. Their greed knew no bounds, as if their lives didn't matter at all.

"Execute those Golden Pill Monks guilty of massive corruption immediately."

"Those with lesser amounts, expel and sentence them. If they resist, kill them on the spot."

In the documents, Jiang Ding instructed, "All properties must be recovered, and if family members or relatives of the corrupt Golden Pill Monks have used the embezzled properties, they must return them. If they can't return them, they will be treated as accessories to the crime, and if their crimes are particularly heinous, they may also be executed."

"If it's legal in procedure, the corrupt Golden Pill Monks who are to be executed should be paraded before their families so they can watch the outcome of their relatives."

"If there are old Cultivators nearing the end of their life energy who wish to sacrifice themselves for their families, then let them witness more."

"In the future, avoid using old Cultivators with life energy nearing its end for important positions. Such Cultivators with strong self-destructive tendencies should be moved to suitable positions, or retire them."

This was actually an oversight. In the rush to establish Tushan Central Court, this aspect was neglected, which quickly led to adverse consequences.

Jiang Ding spent more than ten days dealing with these administrative matters, finally breathing a sigh of relief.

It may seem simple, just half a month's time.

But this was the result of half a month's continuous operation at full speed of a God-transforming level Divine Soul. If it were a Golden Core clone handling it, without delegating authority and dealing with all matters personally, it's likely he wouldn't even be able to keep up with the pace of new administrative matters arising.

After all, this involved all the Golden Core level governance for a population of several billion!

If he were to delegate authority, he might as well not bother with random inspections.

"I can't do this every year, it would affect my cultivation."

Jiang Ding sighed.

He finally understood why most Nascent Soul Cultivators ultimately chose to completely delegate authority, indifferent as long as there were no major changes.

For Spirit Transformation Heavenly Monarchs in the later stages of their life, they were almost forgotten by the world, no longer appearing before people, becoming a legend.

Because it was truly tiresome, to come once a year and have all sorts of matters delayed.

Even with such diligent governance, the result was merely a more prosperous Cultivation World under his rule with a slightly higher production of Heavenly Material and Earthly Treasure.

For any substantial qualitative change to occur, however, it was difficult.

Perhaps, the end result would not even compare to the enlightenment gained from a casual walk or leisurely excursion.

"But I am different, I carry the heritage of Xianmen Sect's establishment. With meticulous management, the number of talents will surge tenfold, and producing ten times more Heavenly Material and Earthly Treasure is not an issue."

Jiang Ding contemplated.

"However, such frequent diligent governance is too excessive."

"From next year onwards, once every two years, maintain this for ten years. After ten years, inspect once every ten years, maintain for a century, and after a hundred years, inspect once every fifty years. That should be about right."

"The Cultivators from Governance Sect had better not be all talk and no action, otherwise..."

"I am doing the work that is supposed to be yours!"

Jiang Ding huffed lightly.

What he hated most was others pushing their own work onto him, delaying his cultivation, sleep.

Throwing the last jade slip with Golden Core level documents upwards, he watched it disappear in the teleportation Formation, and the Dark Demon Palace once again became spacious and uncluttered, no longer crowded.

"It's time to tend to important matters."

"The two-year term has ended, and Sun Extinguisher Heavenly Monarch has been released from prison. Buddy, I'm going on a journey."

Jiang Ding stood up.

He walked out of Dark Demon Palace and arrived at the peak of Yin Yang Magneto Spiritless Mountain. The fierce and sharp primordial magnetic winds blew his hair into disarray. A single strand could sever Golden Pill treasures, yet they couldn't injure him in the slightest.

Jiang Ding gazed at the horizon, the sea of clouds, the vast mountains and rivers, a faint blue light flickered in his eyes.

At this moment, before him, there were no longer mountains, rivers, or the earth. There was only the flow of Heavenly Earth Spiritual Qi, the circulation of Earth Vein Qi, and the primordial magnetism shuttling between various poles. These scenes formed a dense and sprawling network, spread between heaven and earth, pervading every place, every demon beast, every human body.

This was the Heaven Earth Spirit Chart!

Typically, when array masters set up formations, they must painstakingly survey and calculate the flow of various spiritual forces on the site for decades or even hundreds of years to understand the patterns.

Only then can they cautiously construct the formation. This is particularly the case for Sects' great formations, which are treated with extreme caution to ensure a legacy lasting thousands of years. Negligence is not an option.

For Jiang Ding, however, this was not necessary. The Formation Method heritage from Xianmen Sect allowed him to draw an accurate Heaven Earth Spirit Chart in a short amount of time. With the addition of the Six Dao Lifeless Great Formation for reference, this was not a difficult task.

"It's quite simple…"

Jiang Ding remarked.

With a thought, his Storage Jade Pendant emitted a faint glow, and nine bronze cauldrons as large as mountains materialized around him, their magnetic lights flickering brightly.

These nine great cauldrons, all made from fifth-order Primordial Magnetic Copper and a mix of various high-order compound Spiritual Gold, are the cost-effective materials in line with Xianmen Sect's performance indicators. Officially, they are known as Primordial Magnetic Nine Spirits Array Base Cauldrons and form the foundation of the Central Court Array in Northern Plains.

And this was not the end.

Following the Nine Primordial Magnetic Nine Spirits Array Base Cauldrons, tens of thousands of jade nails, thick as a baby's arm, appeared. These were Vein Stabilizing Nails made from fourth-order Mixed Primordial Jade, used to stabilize Earth Veins.

Following the jade nails, all kinds of banners, magical swords, jade pillars, saplings, cloud qi, and other Formation instruments were innumerable, scattered between heaven and earth. These various Formation instrument components had different shapes and functions.

The total number reached more than a million, and just using Divine Sense to support these Formation components and infusing Mana into them was beyond the ability of a Peak Nascent Soul Cultivator, let alone setting up the formation.

Over a million Formation components floated between heaven and earth.

Countless waves of Heavenly Earth Spiritual Qi surged toward this place like a tsunami, and the light of the Great Sun from a thousand miles away converged here. Yin Yang Magneto Spiritless Mountain suddenly erupted in a dazzling display of Primordial Magnetic Divine Light, suppressing the Five Elements Magic wherever it landed.

This overwhelming pressure was suffocating.

Many Immortals of Nascent Soul and Golden Pill Monks who had gathered from various places in Northern Plains suddenly became alert.

"What has happened?"

They woke up with a start, breath heavy, hearts pounding with fear that a stray beam of Primordial Magnetic Divine Light might hit them and reduce them to pieces.

The space between heaven and earth was obscured by the Primordial Magnetic Divine Light bursting from Yin Yang Magneto Spiritless Mountain. Everything was a murky grey, nothing was clear or visible, even Divine Sense was useless, and countless people were filled with panic and unease.

"Heavenly Monarch!"

"It's a Heavenly Monarch setting up the formation!"

Someone exclaimed. It was a fourth-order Array Master who had detected the signs amidst the changing cosmos.

At the same time, Governance Sect also received orders, and they began to calm the multitude of cultivators, instructing them not to do anything, just to stay in their Cave Mansions and not to move erratically, and to refrain from going out so as not to be harmed by the erratic Great Formation and vanish without a trace.

Many Immortals couldn't help but send out a trace of Divine Sense to look outside.

They saw jade nails, engraved with runes and thick as a baby's arm, falling from the sky, landing on the mountains, on the earth, exactly at the nodes of the Earth Veins, melting like ice and snow, merging into the mountains, leaving no trace behind.

Suddenly, jade pillars the size of houses fell, landing on nodes where Spiritual Energy converged, smoothing out the rampant Spiritual Energy.

Primordial Magnetic Treasure Orbs also descended on mountain peaks, slightly weakening the thousands of miles of rampaging Primordial Magnetic Divine Light calamity...

And so on and so forth, all these were mysterious and unfathomable techniques of the Formation Dao, causing the many Immortals of Nascent Soul to be caught in a tumultuous surge of emotions as they were dazzled in an instant.
