Bombarding Cultivators with Cluster Artillery

Jiang Ding’s mood was somewhat downcast as he silently organized the spoils of this battle.

The gains were immensely significant!

Regarding treasures, he obtained the immortal body of the Qilin Ancient Emperor, an extreme path immortal body of immense weight, with self-generating Dao Essence, resembling a black hole. It is an excellent material for crafting treasures or warships. Jiang Ding considered using it to forge an emperor-level legacy warship for the Xianmen Sect.

This way, even after he enters slumber, the sect would still possess emperor-level heritage.

The immortal civilization inheritance of the Qilin Immortal Dynasty was likewise similar. With the Qilin’s Sleeping World, the Qilin Immortal Body, and a large number of Qilin Immortal Dynasty Dao Soldiers at his disposal, he was fully confident in restoring the various immortal inheritance of the Qilin Immortal Dynasty and absorbing them to further augment the foundation of the Supreme Great Sun Immortal Path.

These gains were secondary.

The most crucial gain was the ”Sun Immortal Scripture Fragments” of the Forbidden Area Ancient Emperor and the Ancient Emperor of the Sun!

These were scriptures of a Forbidden Area Ancient Emperor level!

Though only fragments, they already offered general insights into the construction of the ”Below the Cross Immortal Scripture” and the Forbidden Area, showcasing astonishing immortal wisdom. Moreover, it required no cost—one just needed to exchange one’s Human Emperor Immortal Scripture. As long as you are a Human Emperor, you have the right to obtain it, as part of racial mutual support.

The Ancient Emperor of the Sun, a Human Race Saint King, an ancient gentleman; this was not merely idle talk.

Jiang Ding had ample reason to respect Ji Yan Ancient Emperor, a defeated subordinate.

”No,”

”Supreme Great Sun Daoist, I can still live. Did you misunderstand something?”

Ji Yan Ancient Emperor, adept at reading emotions, immediately replied with a cheeky grin.

”Ah?”

Jiang Ding was taken aback.

Wouldn’t an Ancient Emperor Who Couldn’t Plunder Sufficient Heritage for Slumber Soon Perish? Be aware that Ji Yan Ancient Emperor survived for two lifetimes of sixty million years, already pushing the limit.

And to live into a third era?

That’s impossible.

A depleted ancient emperor couldn’t achieve this.

”Alas,”

”What else, but my Forbidden Area Ancient Emperor father?”

Ji Yan Ancient Emperor sighed deeply and lamented, ”My father left a secret technique. If I relinquish my emperor status and switch to cultivating the Emperor Path, becoming an Emperor Realm Cultivator, I could then slumber with him.”

”Should I be fortunate to encounter the Golden Era, he might consider bestowing an opportunity for life extension.”

”In any case, a sorry life is better than a good death.”

”Whether an ancient emperor or an emperor realm cultivator, I don’t mind; I’m not picky.”

Relinquishing emperor status!

A slight tremor passed through Jiang Ding’s heart.

The very thought provoked intense discomfort; he’d rather die than live this way, for it implied a total abandonment of the path to immortality, merely to eke out a few more years of wretched existence.

For an emperor, it would be a catastrophic blow to self-esteem.

Even to the Qilin Ancient Emperor, who could bear indignity and endure, relinquishing the path to immortality was more unendurable than death!

Ninety-nine percent of emperors would prefer death over such a fate.

Ji Yan Ancient Emperor was truly...unique.

”Senior, do you need assistance?”

After a long silence, Jiang Ding inquired.

”Yes,”

”I need some Heavenly Material and Earthly Treasures, to set up certain instruments; I require vast manpower and resources. This...” Ji Yan Ancient Emperor rubbed his hands with delight, ingratiatingly, ”Brother, could you perhaps lend me some funds?”

”Why borrow?”

”Senior should simply take what is needed.”

Jiang Ding gave a slight smile and readily agreed.

Money is merely an external possession.

To be part of the significant undertaking of relinquishing emperor practice itself is a tremendous gain, greatly promoting the development of the immortal path.

”Generous brother!”

Ji Yan Ancient Emperor rejoiced.

He truly was an optimist, swiftly recovering from heartfelt sorrow to jubilance, never depleting his own energy, always looking forward.

”These are minor matters.”

”Senior,”

Jiang Ding chuckled, glancing up in a certain direction, a sinister expression crossing his face, ”Senior, have you encountered the Nine-leaf Sword Emperor?”
