A swarm of heavy artillery bombarded the cultivators.

Chapter 1359: The st Region of the Great Thousand Worlds

Jiang Ding shuttled through the sky, his speed was extremely fast - about half faster than that of a regular peak-level Jindan cultivator, which was in line with his status as a prodigy who had ascended to heaven in the Small Thousand Worlds.

Before he completely got rid of possible surveillance, he was the strongest person in the small world, one level weaker than Shuoyang Tianjun.

Along the way, mountains and rivers flew by at a high speed, passing by seventeen mortal kingdoms and five immortal cultivation sects, including four Nascent Soul-level sects and one Golden Core-level sect. The techniques they practiced came from the same source, carrying a trace of the Jiuxiao Shenlei Zhenzong's fundamental technique, "Jiuxiao Lei Dian", which was its lower-level technique.

These small sects were all founded by the disciples of Jiuxiao Shenlei Zhenzong from generation to generation. They are subordinate forces of Jiuxiao Shenlei Zhenzong and are responsible for things like planting, breeding, and mining. They are one of the industries of Jiuxiao Shenlei Zhenzong, but they are presented in the form of sects and are not independent forces.

"The place where the Nine Heavens Divine Thunder Sect is located is called the Thunder Fire Region, which is one of the 921 regions in the universe and is ranked as a lower region."

"Is the name Domain related to the Nine Great Immortal Sects calling the Nine Spiritual Domains 'Domains'?"

Jiang Ding silently recalled the memory of the Lianxu named Qing Lei Zhenzun who was captured and soul-searched by Xiyuan.

This is the hometown of the nine great immortal sects.

Many things have cultural heritage, and there is a lot that can be excavated from them.

The name of the "world" is extremely misleading. In fact, it is a nebula-like area formed by the condensation, concentration and aggregation of many star fields. It is also a place where many life worlds gather. It is not as simple as a single world.

"There are two forces in this lower region. One is the Nine Heavens Divine Thunder Sect, and the other is the Blood Lake Corpse Mountain. The two sects are fighting endlessly, and neither can do anything to the other."

"In fact, there is nothing we can do."

"Because the two refining-level true sects are both protected by an immortal sect - the Immortal Weapon Sect."

"It is not allowed or allowed to violate the rules. In fact, it is impossible for the two sects to annex the other sect. This is not what the Immortal Weapon Sect wants to see."

Jiang Ding quickly compared what he saw with the political situation in his memory.

"However, the Nine Heavens Divine Thunder Sect and the Blood Lake Corpse Mountain are not subordinate to the Immortal Weapon Sect. The two are semi-independent. Because there are "domain barriers" in each domain of the Great Thousand World, strong people above the Refining Void Realm will be greatly suppressed when traveling through them, and teleportation arrays and the like are not immune."

"This natural geographical advantage leads to a strong tendency for independence in various parts of the universe, making it impossible for them to form a unified force. This is the main reason why beings below the immortal level cannot control the universe. The heavenly consciousness of the universe suppresses this possibility and tries to prevent the emergence of beings with huge harm."

"In history, there have been immortal sects that have attempted to completely unify and control every place."

Jiang Ding looked through his memories.

“For example, they would disperse their elite disciples to various domains to serve as domain masters. However, once a few generations have passed, these disciples would also become semi-independent forces and would not completely obey the orders of the Immortal Sect.”

"However, it does not mean that these True Sects and Dao Sects can ignore the orders of the Immortal Sect."

"Once the Immortal Sect is willing to invest more attention, it would rather lose money than destroy a region's power. This can also be done. It's nothing more than a choice of price."

"After countless years of friction, struggle, and fighting, this political structure was finally formed."

"That is, many True Sects and Dao Sects pledged allegiance to the Immortal Sect, made offerings to the Immortal Sect, and performed military service. The Immortal Sect guaranteed the interests of many True Sects and Dao Sects, and from time to time, it would suppress and destroy one or two True Sects and Dao Sects to demonstrate its authority, so that Dao Sects and True Sects would not dare to have dissenting thoughts."

"The natural materials and treasures offered by the Jiuxiao Shenlei Zhenzong account for about 80% of the production!"

Jiang Ding compared the amount in his memory and was secretly shocked.

"The Immortal Weapon Sect is really the same as the Shangqing Lingbao Sect. They will not take only nine spirit stones if they can squeeze out ten. Their calculations are extremely precise."

"However, this is a good thing. The inheritance of Shangqing Lingbao Sect has its limits. Xianmen can consider destroying it first."

That's right!

The Shangqing Lingbao Sect, one of the nine immortal sects in the Jiuling Realm, originated from the Lingbao Realm. After the Lingbao Realm survived the great catastrophe, it changed the name of the sect to the Xianqi Sect.

There is a suspicion of a coup d'état taking place within the party, leading to a change of dynasty.

The coup party seemed to have introduced the newly promoted Xianzong Leiyang Tianjian Realm forces. Of course, Qing Lei Zhenzun didn't know the specific details and didn't dare to pry.

This near-immortal-level force successfully survived the catastrophe, so it is very likely that they will not open all their inheritance to inheritance seeds from afar. This is the principle of strong trunk and weak branches. At least the inheritance of the Sun and Moon Sword Pavilion is clearly stipulated in this way.

Jiang Ding flew over mountains and rivers and quickly assessed the surrounding environment.

“The products are extremely abundant!”

"If we don't count the 80% of offerings that are handed over to the Immortal Sect, plus the resources from the many small ascended realms, this mere Lower Realm actually has an output comparable to that of the entire Jiao Ming Realm!"

"Too scary. The Horned Netherworld has more than 400 small thousand worlds and one middle thousand world. Even if we don't count the Dead Silence Starry Sky, the size of the small world of life is at least a hundred times that of the Thunder Flame Realm."

"Such a small place has produced such a huge amount of natural treasures, and it's just the lower region."

Jiang Ding was shocked.

After seeing it with his own eyes, he gained a deeper understanding of the wealth of the upper world.

This is just the Lower Domain. What kind of scene is it if there are immortal sects that gather the natural treasures of the Middle and Upper Domains, as well as the vast power of the starry sky and own many small worlds?

What kind of background do the Taoist and Sword Masters of the Immortal Sect possess?

At this moment, even he felt a sense of frustration and despair in his heart, but it was soon extinguished by the materialistic sun sword intent and did not affect his Taoism.

"The qualifications of the human cultivators in the universe..."

Jiang Ding quickly evaluated another item.

"There are very few mortals without spiritual roots, only one in a billion. The concentration of spiritual energy here is too high. For countless years, creatures have completed evolution generation after generation. Not having spiritual roots is a mutation, which is not common."

"Those with the worst qualifications have four spiritual roots, almost everyone has that."

"Then there are the three spiritual roots, which are also numerous. The two spiritual roots are less numerous, and the heavenly spiritual roots are still extremely rare, but their absolute number is at least a hundred times that of the Small Thousand Worlds."

“However… despite such aptitude, there are not many cultivators. To the extent that everyone can become a cultivator, the vast majority are still mortals.

Jiang Ding was a little confused.

He scanned with his spiritual sense and found the reason.

"The concentration of spiritual energy is too high!"

"In this environment, things will turn into the opposite when they reach their extremes, causing many creatures to lose their sensitivity to spiritual energy and become dull. Often, only those with three spiritual roots can embark on the path of immortality, while those with four spiritual roots become mortals in a certain sense... Is this related to the regulation of the consciousness of the Heavenly Dao?"

"To prevent too many monks from appearing like locusts and endangering the immortal ecosystem?"

“There are also many plants, many minerals, and materials… These are things that Xianmen has never discovered before, brand new materials. These treasures of nature will surely promote the substantial progress of Xianmen’s material science.

The Creator’s endless treasure…”

Jiang Ding was extremely happy.

Even if there is no harvest afterwards, these new natural materials alone are a great fortune!

All these things flashed through his mind quickly.

In the distance, the capital of a mortal kingdom appeared before their eyes. There were millions of people there, and many immortal technologies had been initially applied, allowing the city to expand significantly in size. It was no longer just a mortal kingdom.

Jiang Ding chose to hide in a corner of the palace, set up a hidden formation, closed his eyes, began to heal his wounds, and waited.
