Bombarding Cultivators with Cluster Artillery

If there were dissatisfactions with the law, they could be discussed. As long as valid reasons were given, he would inspect on the ground. If indeed inappropriate, the law could be amended.

All of these matters are negotiable, and certain compromises can be made with the local cultivators’ customs and habits while still adhering to the spirit of Xianmen Sect’s legislation.

Tushan Law is not some immutable sacred edict that remains unchanged for all eternity, capable of adapting to every situation.

Tushan Law can be changed and should be adapted to local conditions, changing with the external environment, rather than being rigid and obsolete.

However, once Tushan Law is established, it must be followed!

Even the Tushan Heavenly Monarch himself must abide by it!

In other words, even if it’s an old friend of many years, if you violate Tushan Law, imprisonment and death are inevitable when called for. There is nothing more to be said.

”I don’t want to think about this.”

”Somewhat heavy-hearted. Under Tushan Law, it is their own choice; the price of seeking shortcuts should elicit no sympathy, right?”

Jiang Ding smiled and gazed at his treasure vault.

This treasury, built on the Yin Yang Primordial Magnetism Extinct Spirit Mountain of the Liudao Sect, was magnificient beyond compare, even surpassing his residence in the Dark Demon Palace. Its space was expanded time and again, with more importance placed on it than on the Formation Method itself.

Clearly, he had anticipated today’s situation a long time ago, foreseeing that he might not come to the Northern Plains for an extended period and had prepared accordingly.

Now, after more than three hundred years of accumulation, all sorts of Heavenly Material and Earthly Treasure piled up like mountains, with treasures gleaming in all directions. Even Fifth Order Heavenly Material and Earthly Treasure formed a small mound, with the First to Fourth Order ones numbering in the billions, an incredibly staggering amount.

”Let me calculate.”

”Using a conservative estimate, the total value of all these items together is... sixteen trillion Low-grade Spirit Stones, one hundred sixty thousand Top-grade Spirit Stones?”

Jiang Ding felt somewhat disappointed.

Is that a lot?

Certainly, very much so, surpassing the wealth of several Nascent Soul Cultivators.

Merely three hundred years.

This is the wealth of a Domain Overlord, accumulating wealth every day without lifting a finger, far exceeding that of an ordinary Spirit Transformation Heavenly Monarch.

Yet, compared to the wealth he collected from the Horned Demon Emperor Clan Royal Family in the Horned Ming Realm, these gains seemed a little lacking. Three hundred years of accumulation wasn’t even comparable to the wealth amassed in a single destruction of a Horned Demon Emperor Clan Royal Family.

Now, counting the wealth in the Northern Plains Treasury, Jiang Ding possessed a total of seventy-six thousand Top-grade Spirit Stones!

Converted into more impressive numbers, that’s seventy-six trillion Low-grade Spirit Stones!

These Spirit Stones, a Qi Practitioner might not be able to amass such wealth even if they worked non-stop for millions of years without rest. It was indeed quite astounding.

The higher the level of cultivators, the more extraordinary they become, with a gap so vast it scarcely seems like they are of the same species.

”Not bad, this will do.”

”The loan for the Super Warship Great Sun Air-Space Mothership can be repaid now, otherwise the annual interest is no small matter.”

Jiang Ding revealed an exhilarated expression: ”Additionally, I’ll donate sixty trillion Low-grade Spirit Stones to the Banyan Tree Scholarship Fund, to nourish the bodies of children with excellent Xianmen Sect moral character. After all, they are citizens of the Domain Overlord, and life shouldn’t be too harsh as in the years of arduous preparations for war.”

”However, they also need to be tempered, to understand the hard-earned nature of Spirit Stones.”

”Don’t think just because I have some money. In reality, it was all fought for, never letting my guard down. Once I relax, once I become complacent, my enemies’ blades won’t become complacent with me.”

”Citizens of Xianmen should not act like those young masters and mistresses of bloodline families, full of aristocratic habits, aloof and disdainful of hardships, indulging in pleasures... This won’t do.”
