Bombarding Cultivators with Cluster Artillery-Chapter 2076 - 2043: The True Immortal Appears at Xianmen Sect
Time is collapsing.
The universe is collapsing.
This fragment of past times, the intercepted historical time, is gradually dissipating.
How long has it been?
Jiang Ding slowly opened his eyes.
All around, the sun was shining, flowers were in full bloom, and amidst the ruins, unchanged for many years, lay the remnants of a battlefield that was his own handiwork.
"This place is,"
"The Fallen Realm... Sealed Spirit Forbidden Domain!"
Jiang Ding spent considerable time beginning to receive various information. 𝐟𝕣𝗲𝕖𝕨𝗲𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝗲𝚕.𝗰𝚘𝐦
This is the Perishing Immortal Realm, the place where he first entered the Time Rift, for it’s farthest from the Beidou Ancient Road, preventing potential enemy tracking and locking onto the Xianmen Sect coordinates, thus protecting Xianmen from danger.
"How many years have passed?"
Jiang Ding started to ponder.
The time within the Time Rift and the present world isn’t unified, historically multiple scenarios have surfaced; some wherein the Time Rift lasts for ages yet appears instantaneous in the present world, others for thousands or even tens of thousands of years. Time is too mysterious and unpredictable, with many uncertainties and unknowns prevailing in cultivation world’s research of it.
If it’s tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands, that would be too dire.
Jiang Ding swept his Divine Sense around, simply calculating the Immortal Dao Universe Constant.
It is one of the most fundamental measurement methods to prevent interference from ninety-nine percent of Illusion Techniques, usable anywhere in the Endless Starry Sky.
"Twenty thousand nine hundred and twenty-seven years."
"Not bad."
Jiang Ding breathed a little easier.
Nearly thirty thousand years, yet not to the point of profound change and deep transformation.
Of course, this time is just relative to the living beings of the present world; for the Supreme Great Sun Sword Fairy, nearly ten thousand years have already passed.
"The Fallen Realm, it should be this monarch’s place of attainment..."
Jiang Ding murmured.
Decades have gone by, the Sealed Spirit Forbidden Domain has undergone many changes, experiencing undercurrents, internal brewing rebellion, showing signs of dysfunction in its governance structures—common phenomena in organizational entities.
But he is completely indifferent.
Here, the Supreme Great Sun Sword Fairy feels at ease.
Here, in this Fallen Realm suppressing strong entities, even if the Eight Tribulation Venerable comes personally and forcibly descends, he would regretfully slay the Eight Tribulation Venerable.
Unless the True Immortal personally intervenes, nothing poses a threat.
That’s the Perishing Immortal Realm!
Here, the Supreme Great Sun Sword Fairy is nearly unthreatened, even the various undercurrents cannot attract his attention.
However, even though it is safe here, during this impending slumber period, the Supreme Great Sun Sword Fairy doesn’t want to remain.
"Let’s return."
"This monarch’s homeland..."
Jiang Ding murmured.
...
Xianmen Sect.
A solar system meeting of Xianmen Sect is in session.
Yuan, along with many new generation Harmonization God Monarchs of Xianmen Sect, participate in the conference.
"The research on the Immortal Dao paths of Qi Fortune Dynasty and Earth Immortal Dao within Xianmen Sect has achieved major breakthroughs. Xianmen Sect indeed has enormous potential on the Immortal Dao paths of Qi Fortune Dynasty and Earth Immortal Dao; the legendary Azure Qi Fortune Dynasty should be able to be established, which will greatly enhance Xianmen Sect’s combat power, research and development ability, and productivity..."
"The Ninth Tier Venerable level Central Array Spirit Computer project has reached the final juncture, but the bottleneck remains unsolved..."
"In terms of Immortal Dao materials, Army Formation, Formation Method, Warship construction, significant breakthroughs have been achieved, yet it seems to have reached current material and technology limits. Every step forward is immensely difficult; perhaps another few decades will only bring slight progress, already reaching the limits of current Immortal Dao civilization..."
"Every step surpasses limits, autonomous development, it’s extremely difficult; compared to top powers in the Endless Starry Sky passing down heritage for tens of millions or hundreds of millions of years, our time is too short, the foundation of Immortal Dao civilization is too thin, perhaps requiring a million years of technical accumulation just to begin envisioning the supreme of the Endless Starry Sky..."
"Reaching star domain-level supreme also requires such time..."
"This glorious future, perhaps our generation won’t witness it."
Some Harmonization God Monarchs sighed.
The participating Xianmen cultivators also seemed somewhat gloomy.
The more they understand the Endless Universe Starry Sky’s situation and refrain from seeing only the sky above one’s well, the more dispirited they become, as many predetermined processes and objective laws cannot be skipped.
One million years, still extremely optimistic.
In reality, if Xianmen Sect remains in the Ancient Divine Domain Medium Thousand World clusters, hardly any major achievements can be made over hundreds of millions of years, akin to staying nestled in a small village researching without exchanging information and material with the outside world, eternally likely remaining the same.
No matter how adept Xianmen Sect is in Immortal Dao Research, one cannot yield outcomes influencing the Endless Starry Sky in such a corner.
Immortal Dao Research is material-based, requiring extensive experimentation, not just a few people huddled in a village researching and discussing. As time passes, assuming outcomes just appear is unrealistic.
"Should we risk advancing prematurely into the Divine Buddha Great Thousand World?"
Someone suggested.
Progress in Immortal Science is indeed deeply linked with material foundations and environment.
Conducting research in a cluster of Great Thousand Worlds would prevent Xianmen Sect from encountering so many bottlenecks, the Ninth Tier Central Array Spirit Computer breakthrough might occur in the short term.
"No!"
"Still need to wait for Great Sun Participating, only thirty thousand years, no hurry."
Many opposed opinions: "Great Sun Participating remains in retreat, we can wait for him several tens of thousands of years more. Great Sun Participating is a Seven-step Daoist; holds great prestige in domain wars."
"Indeed."
"No rush, if we can’t wait we’ll slumber, tens of thousands of years isn’t much time."
"Just like this..."
Numerous Harmonization God Monarchs continually discuss and push forward various Xianmen Sect’s affairs.
Yuan silently observed, without making any comments.
This situation persisted for many years.
This was intentional, wanting to cultivate the next generation of Xianmen Sect talents, giving them ample experience, even if they make mistakes or take detours, it’s fine.
Various meetings progressed in succession until concluded.
"Enact by the resolutions generated at the meeting..."
Yuan finally declared.
"This is..."
Suddenly, Yuan revealed an expression of ultimate horror and terror, flashing past.
His body couldn’t help but tremble, an extreme fear!
A Heavenly Man even couldn’t control his Dao Heart, revealing outwardly; such manifestation left surrounding Harmonization God Monarchs of Xianmen Sect trembling.
Soon, upper echelons of Xianmen Sect also turned pale, began panicking, bodies trembling, akin to mortals being weak and powerless, struggling to maintain their Dao Heart, becoming as fragile as tofu.
The entire Xianmen Sect fell into instant chaos!
Everything resulted because the Central Array Spirit Computer coldly conveyed a message to numerous cultivators of Xianmen Sect.
"Warning!"
"Warning... Warning... Warning..."
"Citizens!"
"Councillors!"
"Xianmen Sect is facing a life and death crisis!"
"Xianmen Councillor, Jiang Ding, Dari Swordsman, Supreme Great Sun Sword Fairy has returned, and his moral conduct score is rapidly declining. Take note, he is one of the strongest beings in the Endless Universe Starry Sky, a certain juvenile form of True God; Xianmen Sect has no possibility of obstructing the True Immortal’s will..."
"Take note, Xianmen Sect now enters a life and death extinction emergency state!"
"Take note, no citizen is permitted to act in opposition due to any reason, even constitutionally, even adhering to Xianmen Sect’s First Law..."
"Take note, Xianmen Sect should prioritize survival, and prioritize the continuity of its citizens!"
"Take note, before the True Immortal, no hostile intent is allowed; violators will be executed on the spot, unwavering by any public opinion, any cause, or any righteousness..."
"Take note..."
