Bombarding Cultivators with Cluster Artillery

Chapter 2182: Chapter 2149: The Eight Tribulation Venerables of the Previous Generation Have All Met Their End

Supreme Great Sun Heavenly Palace.

Jiang Ding is summoning the contemporary Supreme Elder of the Shangqing Lingbao Sect.

This is an old man with graying hair and many spots on his face, at the peak of the Heavenly Human Level. Years ago, he attempted to break through to the Supreme, but failed, greatly depleting his life energy. He should have several decades left to live.

This is already extremely fortunate.

Many Heavenly Humans die during the promotion to Supreme, with their divine souls completely destroyed, and even their bodies cannot be returned to the sect’s cemetery.

In recent years, thanks to the stable and peaceful environment of the Big Dipper and other seven major star domains, and policies that encourage the Heavenly Humans to open paths rather than restrict them, many Heavenly Human level sects have gotten opportunities to ascend to Supreme.

The Shangqing Lingbao Sect is a typical example of such a weak force.

In these hundreds of thousands of years, they have attempted to ascend to Supreme seven times, each time leveraging the power of the entire sect, but each time they failed. Their ability to obtain resources was too weak, and the sect long-awaited an unparalleled elite who never appeared.

Currently, the unparalleled elite often choose more powerful sects due to the unrestrictive personnel movement within the seven major star domains of the human race. Those with greater ambition practice the ”Supreme Great Sun Sword Scripture,” at the very least entering a Supreme sect, the Shangqing Lingbao Sect’s attraction to these talents is minimal.

Unless a person who extremely fits the Upper Qing Spirit Treasure Dao emerges, otherwise the sect might find it difficult to revive in another million years.

”Hey, boy,”

”Salute, Your Majesty!”

The Supreme Elder of Shangqing Lingbao Sect trembled a bit, extremely excited.

Before him was an incredibly ancient being, once acquainted with his many ancestor masters, one of the strongest beings of the human race, the Endless Starry Sky Dominator.

To a Heavenly Person Cultivator akin to an ant, encountering such a being is the honor of a lifetime in cultivation.

”The Supreme Elder of Shangqing Lingbao Sect...”

Jiang Ding carefully sized up this peak Heavenly Human little fellow.

He looked for a long time, finally slightly correlating from cultivation methods and aura to the memory of the Upper Qing Spiritual Treasure Daoist, and the Refining Nothingness Cultivator of the Nine Spirits Realm era, who was of the same generation as Xi Yuan.

That Refining Nothingness Cultivator brought him great shadows when he was young, always impressed as strong.

Unfortunately, as time went on, that Refining Nothingness Cultivator did not grow along the way. By the time Jiang reached his own ascension, it was difficult for him to muster the intent to kill, too weak, watching him flee into the dead silent starry sky, dying in an unknown corner.

However, these hatreds, naturally, should not be connected to this over-ten-thousand-year-old little fellow.

”I haven’t seen your sect’s cultivators in quite a while.”

”How has your sect been over these years?”

Jiang Ding casually asked.

”Reporting to Your Majesty, things have been well these years.”

”Thanks to your blessing, our sect’s cultivators’ conditions are much better than during the Nine Spirits Realm and Ancient Divine Domain periods. The treasures, elixirs, and talismans we use now are superior, far better for our disciples than for our ancestors.”

The Supreme Elder of Shangqing Lingbao Sect said respectfully: ”Unfortunately, without the remnant glows of past ancestor masters, subsequent disciples have been mediocre, failing to achieve anything significant, with no one yet ascending to Supreme.”

”We are ashamed before the ancestors.”

He confessed with shame.

”Opportunity in cultivation and the like carries too many unknowns.”

”Do not force it; let things happen with fate.”

Jiang Ding comforted a bit.

He swung his sleeve, bestowing two treasures suspended before the Supreme Elder of Shangqing Lingbao Sect, one being a Mysterious Gold Talisman, and a Jade Slip.

The Supreme Elder of Shangqing Lingbao Sect trembled.

”This lord has some fortuitous connection with your sect’s last Supreme, benefiting from his fortune.”

”Thus, I am giving some returns here.”
