A swarm of heavy artillery bombarded the cultivators.

Chapter 1588: Old Friend Promoted to Refining Void
Before long, another five hundred years had passed.

On this day, there were constant thunders in the world of the living and the dead. Multiple virtual thunder disasters came one after another, and dark clouds covered the sky.

Jiang Ding put his hands behind his back, looking at the sky quietly, not knowing what he was thinking.

Among them, those who are undergoing the tribulation are naturally Dinghai Tianjun and others.

Today is the day to succeed or die.

If successful, you will enter a new world and extend your life by 30,000 years. If unsuccessful, all the past events will become memories and remain in the memory of the world.

"Sword Master,"

The inheritance of light reported on the side: "After nearly a thousand years of cultivation, several Nascent Soul seeds have appeared. They have a certain chance of surviving the heavenly tribulation of the Immortal Gate's ascension and immigration and becoming citizens of the Immortal Gate."

"These seeds all have the appearance of refining emptiness, and their military achievements, thoughts and morals are excellent."

He put a lot of effort into doing these things, just to make the citizens and monks who are close to Youming Sword Cave Heaven appear in the immortal sect, and while being loyal to the citizens, they also have feelings for Youming Sword Cave Heaven.

These monks who ascended from the Youming Sword Cave Heaven and the Taiyin and Taiyang Citizen Sword cultivators who have been trained and grown up within the Immortal Sect for nearly a thousand years are the continuation of the Taiyin and Taiyang heritage.

This path is a very excellent and perfect path. There are many Taoist companions among the citizens of Xianmen who are suitable for this path and it is impossible to ignore it.

No matter who these people are, the ancestors' Taiyin and Taiyang are being passed down.

In fact, if we only talk about bloodline, except for the first generation ancestor, there are not many people among the current Youming Sword Cave Heaven cultivators who have the bloodline of the upper realm.

Immortal cultivators don’t care about this, it’s all just skin.

Only inheritance is eternal.

"well-done."

Jiang Ding nodded lightly.

Back then, he had promised the Lord of Bright Sword to continue the inheritance of Youming Sword Cave Heaven, and he would definitely do it, which was why he was in charge here.

He will definitely fulfill his promise to his fellow Taoists.

"You should pay more attention to the research of Yin Yang Sword School and stop neglecting it."

Jiang Ding looked at the sky and said without looking back: "Sword cultivation is not just about war, it also requires research and life. This is my process of enlightenment and sword cultivation, you can refer to it."

"Only if you accumulate enough knowledge of swordsmanship in peacetime can you make progress in wartime."

"Otherwise, you will just be a sword cultivator who fights to death but makes no progress. There are many sword cultivators like this who are only brave and courageous. Don't become such a sword cultivator."

"Your enlightenment is research?"

The inheritance of light was shocked and quickly bowed his head in agreement.

During this period of time, due to his past practice habits and the care and training of the sect's disciples, he had indeed neglected this aspect a lot, and subconsciously did not think it was such an important thing.

Now thinking about it, I was a little stupid.

The inheritance of light remembered these words deeply, and then lowered his voice and said: "Yu Qianzi has been in the sect for nearly a thousand years. She and Taiyou have a very good relationship and regard each other as sisters... But this Yu Qianzi is a disciple of Qingmu Xianzong, Sword Master, will this bring disaster to the sect?"

"The Nether Pool is too biased towards the Taiyin lineage and completely disregards the overall interests of the sect."

He said with some worry.

"This is the sword law of the Linyin Patriarch. I cannot change it."

Jiang Ding shook his head slightly: "Unless the Netherworld Pool is destroyed, but this violates my promise of coexistence between the Moon and the Sun. You don't have to worry. I will deal with Yu Qianzi. The Qingmu Immortal Sect does not seem to have any intention of being hostile to the Immortal Sect..."

Hundreds of years ago, the Immortal Sect lifted the restrictions on the disciples of the eight major immortal sects and allowed them to return to their sects.

As a result, the relationship between the Demon God Realm Group and the Immortal Gate Realm Group eased a little, and through a strictly restricted teleportation array, the two realm groups resumed communication and trade.

Among them, the relationship between Xianmen and Qingmu Xianzong began to improve. If in the future, when the situation is irreversible, Qingmu Xianzong may move closer to Xianmen and become a vassal civilization of Xianmen, allowing Xianmen to obtain many Xiandao technologies and achieve mutual benefit and win-win results.

Of course, it is a win-win situation under the leadership of the Immortal Sect.

The Immortal Sect had long been aware of these possibilities, and therefore formulated the propaganda slogan of "No Pardon", which means that the Xuanwu Heavenly Palace will never be pardoned.

If the other seven major immortal sects are willing to surrender, the Immortal Gate is willing to accept them as vassal civilizations.

There are many vassal civilizations under the Immortal Gate now, including the Black-Horned Ants, the Netherworld Black Sky Cranes, the Weaving Sky Spiders... All of them exist in the Immortal Gate's system, each with its own duties. Each race has a specific and great use, and plays an important supplementary role in refining certain materials and certain immortal industrial chains.

Since the Immortal Sect can even accept alien races, it will naturally not let go of the seven more useful Immortal Sects.

The prerequisite is to transform them so that they lose any possibility of threatening the Immortal Sect, and even impose restrictions on their souls. These are inevitable.

The immortal sect would not treat them as slaves, as slavery is actually a very inefficient economic system.

But they will not be given any chance to rebel, and for this reason they do not care about accusations such as being aboveboard or trusting their employees.

"If everything goes well, about ten thousand years later, after Yuan is promoted to the state of unity, the Immortal Sect will be able to launch an expedition to destroy the eight major Immortal Sects. There will be no need to fight to the death, survive near-death experiences, or make countless sacrifices. Once the fleet arrives, it will be able to directly suppress and destroy them..."

Jiang Ding pondered silently.

This is the Xianmen’s current ten thousand year master strategy, the theme of peace and development, although it does not conform to his aesthetics.

Boom!

In the distance, under the Lianxu Heavenly Tribulation, a figure was spitting blood, his breath unstable, like a fallen leaf in the wind.

"tutor……"

Jiang Ding felt a little depressed.

It seems that Zhang Junsheng can only barely survive the heavenly tribulation of refining emptiness, and his hope of achieving the Dao is very slim.

It’s not that the external environment is bad, but that there are not enough natural resources and treasures.

In fact, his personal potential has reached its limit, which is the Void Refining stage, a Void Refining cultivator that can only appear among countless billions of cultivators.

Before we knew it, decades had passed.

As the dark clouds in the sky dispersed, five Void-Refining Monks appeared between heaven and earth. They had successfully survived the thunder tribulation. They were injured to varying degrees and were currently healing on the spot to consolidate their cultivation.

Jiang Ding made a silent estimate.

Among these five old friends who are as close as relatives, only Dinghai Zhenzun has some hope of achieving harmony with the Dao, followed by An Siyan and Jin Lingfeng, while the hopes for the remaining two teachers are very slim.

At least, for him now, there is no way to change this outcome.

Even the gods cannot change it.

Jiang Ding, who had perfected the inheritance, knew that even a powerful man close to the immortal level could not retain all the old friends from the past years. He could only delay it, but in the end he would still be alone.

After a long time, the newly promoted Void-Refining Monks finally recovered from their injuries.

"Refining the void..."

Dinghai Zhenzun and others opened their eyes, their gazes were dazed.

"Congratulations!"

"Congratulations everyone, you have been promoted to the Refining Void stage, and returned to your twenties..."

Jiang Ding walked up quickly, suppressed all worries about the future, and congratulated him.
