Bombarding Cultivators with Cluster Artillery

Jiang Ding pondered for a long time.

"The first question, I can agree to."

"I have kept their life-bound magic treasures without refining them."

Jiang Ding waved his hand, releasing the life-bound magic treasures of the Heavenly God Taoist and others.

These treasures are of high value to the disciples of the Eight Great Immortal Sects, capable of greatly enhancing their foundational heritage. For him, however, they are just ordinary items, not even worth a simple piece of Inheritance Divine Gold, making the exchange lucrative.

If he could melt the Nine Great Immortal Sects' Inheritance Divine Gold and combine it with the Immortal Gate's Magic Arts-Breaking Immortal Gold, along with many research results from the Immortal Sect Materials Science Academy, there is a great possibility of refining a new type of Inheritance Divine Gold—Great Sun Immortal Spirit Gold.

Stronger and more suited to the Great Sun Swordsmanship, it was entirely born for the Great Sun Swordsmanship.

In contrast, the Taiqing Spirit Iron is too gentle, originating from Taiyin and Taiyang Sword Dao, not perfectly compatible with the Great Sun Swordsmanship.

This transaction, which he had anticipated for a long time, was not to be missed.

"The second condition, "

"I will try to arrange for the release of your sect's cultivators. In fact, the Immortal Sect does not need any hostages."

Jiang Ding said plainly. This chapter was made possible by the community at MV|LEM|PYR.

The true purpose of these cultivators' existence is to prevent the Great Powers of the Eight Great Immortal Sects from going mad, keeping a concern. In truth, no one is naive enough to think that a few disciples could make the sect patriarch make a significant compromise.

"However, it should be noted that I don't have the authority to make this decision."

"Only the Immortal Sects Political Council has that."

"Therefore, I cannot be one hundred percent sure about this; I can only say there is more than a ninety percent probability."

Jiang Ding added.

"Alright, let's leave it at that."

Yu Qianzi nodded, checked once, and put away the life-bound magic treasures of the Heavenly God Taoist and others.

Jiang Ding also took back the five pieces of Seventh-Order Inheritance Divine Gold from the Eight Great Immortal Sects.

He felt a bit excited in his heart.

Great Sun Immortal Spirit Gold!

This is a stronger flying sword material and an exclusive advantage for him. No matter how powerful the Upper Realm Immortal Sect Daozi Swordson is, even with the sect's full support, they can hardly obtain all the Inheritance Divine Gold from the Nine Great Immortal Sects, a difficulty almost equating to being invincible in the Upper Realm and destroying all sects.

Not to mention the Magic Arts-Breaking Immortal Gold from the Soulless Universe, which they have never possessed.

Once the main material of the Taiqing Flying Sword changes to Great Sun Immortal Spirit Gold, it means that the Taiqing Flying Sword will be far superior to the Upper Realm Immortal Sect Daozi's flying sword in the same tier, for instance, when both are at the Quasi Ninth-Order Sword Embryo level.

Of course, the Taiqing Flying Sword is now on the verge of entering the Quasi-ninth Rank, still far from the Ninth Rank, but this gap will certainly significantly narrow.

The gap between it and the life-bound magic treasures of the Upper Realm Immortal Sect Daozi further shortened.

"Sword Master."

"There's one more thing."

Youming Pool interjected.

"Speak."

Jiang Ding said irritably.

"Supreme Divine Moon Sword."

"Little Yu said the Supreme Divine Moon Sword is in the Green Wood Immortal Sect, still pitifully at the Refining Void Stage. You need to find a way to snatch it back, as it is our Youming Sword Cave Heaven's treasure too."

She said expectantly.

In past years, when the Daymoon Sword Pavilion split, the Supreme Divine Moon Sword, a heavy treasure of the Taiyin Lineage, escaped to the Green Wood Immortal Sect with the Taiyin Lineage's disciples. It was accepted and guarded, and to this day, the sword still bears a restriction.

"When the time is right, I can."

Jiang Ding agreed readily.

This is merely a small matter, a future task that can be undertaken in passing.

"Then there's nothing more."

Youming Pool was satisfied.

She no longer paid attention to Jiang Ding and left with Yu Qianzi, seemingly intending to give her some teachings and inheritances that a Taiyin Lineage disciple ought to have, with a strong sense of intimacy.

If it were a heavy treasure of the Sun Lineage, such as the Moon, they would completely disregard Yu Qianzi.

However, it seems that Yu Qianzi's initial submission of the Green Wood Immortal Sect ambassador itinerary to the Immortal Sect included these arrangements. She had planned to stay in the Youming Sword Cave Heaven for a long time.

In name, to comprehend the Taiyin Lineage swordsmanship.

"Green Wood Immortal Sect, what does this mean..."

Jiang Ding watched as the figures of Youming Pool and Yu Qianzi gradually disappeared and fell into contemplation.

The recent actions of the Green Wood Immortal Sect are puzzling.

They seem to be working hard to ease relations with the Immortal Sect, taking frequent actions, not just Yu Qianzi, but other Green Wood Immortal Sect ambassadors have made similar moves.

This series of events seem to have occurred after the Youming Sword Cave Heaven.

"Green Wood Immortal Sect... is there a possibility of compromise?"

A thought surfaced in Jiang Ding's mind.

The Green Wood Immortal Sect and the Immortal Gate have no deep grudges, so if the benefits are significant, they can fully follow the old precedent of the Youming Sword Cave Heaven.

If the Green Wood Immortal Sect's heritage can be fully absorbed, the Immortal Gate's spiritual plant cultivation technology, battlefield healing technology, will see significant advancement, bringing overall productivity to a higher level.

The Immortal Sect doesn't necessarily have to destroy the Green Wood Immortal Sect; that treatment is reserved for the Xuanwu Heavenly Palace.

"Forget it, I'll write down my thoughts and submit them to the Immortal Gate General Staff for consideration."

Jiang Ding shook his head.

He wasn't skilled at such realm-wide trends and human nature games. Compared to that, they were far more adept, and there was no point in wasting time.

However, he had some suspicions about why the Eight Great Immortal Sects suddenly agreed to the exchange.

The Great Powers of the Eight Great Immortal Sects are somewhat pessimistic about the future.

Because of this, they have already started preparing for the sect's inheritance's seeds' backup path.

Thus, they are currently going all out to strengthen the sect's disciples, placing the hope of the sect's heritage upon them, guiding them to find a path of survival even after defeat, whether it be a distant and unfamiliar Star Domain or elsewhere.

"Sword refining, sword refining!"

All sorts of distracting thoughts in Jiang Ding's mind dissipated.

He took out numerous seventh-order Heavenly Material and Earthly Treasure, along with the eight most important pieces of Inheritance Divine Gold, and flew into the Great Sun Heavenly Pond to start refining swords once again.

In the Sun Abyss, the vast and complex Great Sun Refining Sword Array radiated in all directions, absorbing the sunlight to create terrifying high temperatures. Many Heavenly Material and Earthly Treasure, and millions of metals melted in the light, causing some changes to appear in the core pieces of the Eight Great Immortal Sects' Inheritance Divine Gold.

Melting these Inheritance Divine Golds wasn't too difficult, given that they are only of the seventh rank.

However, the Taiqing Flying Sword is an eighth-tier sword embryo, about to reach the quasi-ninth rank!

"There's some mismatch..."

Jiang Ding calculated a bit and found the discrepancies.

These seventh-tier materials couldn't be directly refined into the Taiqing Flying Sword because it would be like pouring water from a pond into a lake, failing to make any significant difference.

The gap between seventh-order materials and a quasi-ninth rank sword embryo is too vast, unable to effect much change directly.

"The Taiqing Flying Sword must be sealed for some time."

"Until a Great Sun Immortal Spirit Gold is truly born within the flying sword... this idea has potential."

"Although there are some issues in material science, I should consult Wanji True Venerate and the Immortal Sect Materials Science Academy."

Jiang Ding entertained various ideas in his mind, temporarily halting the melting of the Eight Great Immortal Sects' Inheritance Divine Gold.

He allocated a large amount of spirit stones, battle merits, and heavenly material and earthly treasures, and invested them in the Immortal Sect Materials Science Academy, initiating another round of sword refining.
