Bombarding Cultivators with Cluster Artillery

"...What... is... this?"

Jiang Ding's breathing was somewhat difficult, as he looked at Gold Glow and asked.

Clearly, in his perception, no attack had come his way, and all had been blocked and shattered by the Eight Trigrams Breaking Banned Formation.

It was probably just the strength of a mid-stage Nascent Soul cultivator at best, and under the formation, he should have been fully capable of handling it.

Yet, this baby arm-sized golden spear just appeared on his chest.

There was no fluctuation of spatial teleportation, no cold and strange aura of a curse, and even no display of the power recorded in the library, where a Nascent Soul Cultivator's Divine Soul merges with heaven and earth.

Just like that, the golden spear naturally fell into the embrace of his opponent.

"Junior, this isn't anything,"

Gold Glow didn't answer but fell into a long reminiscence before saying,

"This is my 'Dao'!"

Boom!

The gold spear at his chest burst forth, countless gold flashes spilled out, turning the young man's body into innumerable fragments.

"Uncle-Master!"

"Lord Tushan!"

Many Golden Pill Monks felt a shudder in their hearts, filled with immense fear, and without a second thought, fled in all directions.

Although they would sometimes complain about the other's domineering nature, lacking compassion, everyone was clear that without him, they would be unable to threaten a great cultivator at the Patriarch Nascent Soul realm, and would only be slaughtered.

"Ancestor, I am Yin Dao, your ninth son's descendant..."

The Six Dao Saint was filled with terror.

He was even clearer on the gap between a Golden Pill and a Nascent Soul Monk, let alone his great ancestor who was a renowned Great Expert. Even if it was just a statue, it was certainly not something that a Golden Pill Monk could flee from, so he tried to use another method to survive.

"The sacred ground of the Ancestor Master cannot be trampled upon by outsiders, die."

The Gold Glow Statue looked indifferent, and with a flash of golden light in its eyes, glorious Golden Light Array Patterns erupted. Over three hundred golden spears materialized, targeting each Golden Pill Monk.

Clearly, he had long stopped caring about his progeny when he left a strand of Divine Sense behind. Any slight affection like that for a calf had already been used up over the passing years.

Because as far as the eye could see, all descendants were like grass and trees, with no distinction.

"Oh?"

Gold Glow suddenly showed a look of surprise and let out a light exclamation.

Han Lin, Blood Cloud, and the others who were fleeing for their lives suddenly felt a terrifying force of attraction from all around them. Under this external force, they involuntarily stepped in the Beidou Tiangang Step, aligning with the surrounding Eight Trigrams Array Patterns.

"Lord Tushan!"

Blood Cloud and the others were overjoyed, and instead of resisting, they desperately urged their mana and Divine Sense, actively following the will of this force.

Truly fleeing for their lives, in the face of life and death, all Golden Pill Cultivators truly felt the benefits of following a strong leader.

Although there was no affection, although he was domineering,

They could still save their lives!

Qian, Kun, Dui, Xun, Kan, Zhen, Gen, Li!

In the blink of an eye, the Eight Trigram Image once again rose up, circulating endlessly, before finally settling on the Li Trigram.

Hum!

Within the Array Patterns, bunches of Li Fires concentrated and turned into crimson small swords, each darting in all directions, cutting every golden spear in two.

Thread by thread, the flames of the Li Fire burned along the broken sections, dissolving the golden spears completely, leaving no trace.

"We're still alive?!"

The Six Dao Saint and the others looked toward the center of the Eight Trigrams Formation.

A youth in green clothes, no, a young boy in green clothes, had his figure emerge. His face was ordinary, and although his height was originally that of an adult, he now appeared to be as tall as a fifteen to sixteen-year-old boy, a full head shorter, with his body also noticeably reduced in size.

"This puppet of yours is indeed extraordinary,"

said the Gold Glow Statue with interest.

It truly was extraordinary.

His golden spear, imbued with the Golden Causality and a mere fraction of Immortal Technique, was far from any ordinary weapon or ordinary person.

But even a single touch would turn a cultivator with an indestructible body into pieces, leaving no trace of their Divine Soul.

This time, it had pierced right through the heart, and logically speaking, even a Nascent Soul Monk would be killed instantly, rendering any puppets useless.

"Senior,"

"You, can control the Gold Affinity Spiritual Energy within my body."

Jiang Ding stared fixedly at the statue of the invincible being from ten thousand years ago, as well as the Soul Fragment that was reviving within it through the Formation Method.

The moment he was struck by the golden spear, even though the Xianmen Sect's nanoscale liquid state robot, coded as golden-92, held no life, the nanoscale structure particles inside it also disintegrated instantly by more than half. It was only by segregating the damaged parts that it narrowly escaped destruction.

Having experienced death once, he faintly understood the opponent's method of attack.

Golden Causality, the dominion of Gold Affinity!

It was truly frightening.

All things under heaven, whether they grow hair, wear armor, or are born from eggs and moisture, who could claim their body did not contain Gold Attribute Spiritual Aura, or that their treasures did not include Heavenly Material and Earthly Treasure of Gold Affinity?

Even without them, wouldn't the Heavenly Material and Earthly Treasure composed of wood, fire, earth, and water growing in the world be tainted with Gold Affinity?

Gold, wood, water, fire, earth, these are the basic elements of the Heavenly Earth and existence, omnipresent, making up a part of all living beings. They belong entirely to the organism itself, grow from infancy, integrate spirit and flesh—how could they be easily controlled by others?

This is unreasonable,

Far more difficult than killing a single cultivator by a thousandfold!

"Junior, not a bad insight!"

The Gold Glow Statue slightly smiled, raised a hand to summon, and the surrounding golden inscriptions shone brightly. The golden spear was reborn, tossed casually toward the youth in the sky as effortlessly as hunting down a wild goose.

This was the confidence of a Domain's unbeatable being.

What if one could see it?

The knife is here, the fish lies on the cutting board—would seeing it prevent the fall?

Just like ten thousand years ago,

The outcomes of those adversaries, the results would not change!

"Go!"

Without uttering a word, Jiang Ding initiated the cycle of the Eight Trigrams Formation, condensing a sword of the Li Fire Trigram image to cleave through the layers of space, slashing at the golden spear.

With a thunderous sound of destruction, countless Spiritual Light scattered, causing a vast expanse of space to shatter around them.

As before,

On the front line, the sole remaining Soul Fragment and damaged Formation Method of the Gold Glow Statue were not invincible.

However, its technique was too terrifying, beyond the comprehension of a Golden Pill Monk's Immortal Path.

Ding!

The Golden Pill Monks watching intently with extreme apprehension.

A small golden lance had unexpectedly appeared beside Jiang Ding, colliding with the silver-white Flying Sword in his hand, and was split by a single sword strike.

The Spiritual Light fell apart, the Law-Breaking, Elimination Method's dreadful Sword Intent flashed in all directions.

Jiang Ding's face was expressionless as he put away his silver-white Flying Sword, watching the Gold Glow Statue.

"Your Sword Intent?"

The Gold Glow Statue's expression fluctuated.

Through his sensation of Golden Causality, he could clearly see the Gold Affinity causality of all things.

But at this moment, a humanoid black hole appeared, obscured by a layer of Sword Intent of Destruction and Law-Breaking will, no longer discernible.

"Senior, it seems your skill is not quite perfect."

Jiang Ding inhaled deeply, confirming its effectiveness, and finally revealed a grim smile, "Ten thousand years ago, in the absence of heroes, mediocrity made a name for itself; did you really think that a mere Soul Fragment and a broken Formation Method could do anything to me?"

"Die!"

Boom!

The Eight Trigrams Breaking Banned Formation roared into action, the Sword Intent of Destruction obscured all directions, spirit-breaking and Law-destroying, concealing the simple force of causality.

Then, Qian Kun Kan Dui Gen Zhen Li Xun, the Eight Trigrams images rose all at once, not distinguishing between high and low. Infinite Heavenly Earth Spiritual Qi was inhaled and exhaled, eight Sword images formed from the Trigrams were condensed, and with a thunderous force, they pressed down.
