Chapter 1206 - 1206 1174 He, Fell Asleep

1206: Chapter 1174: He, Fell Asleep 1206: Chapter 1174: He, Fell Asleep “Teacher, who is bullying you?

I’ll get my grandma to beat them up!”

Panda Hua Xiaohua was also shouting loudly.

She drew out a blazing great sword covered with thorns, wildly waving it and tearing and melting the space around, presenting a shocking sight.

Jiang Ding looked at the two.

In his heart, he sighed softly.

The attitude of these two wasn’t just their own attitude but also represented the common stance of hundreds of thousands of Immortal Gate Sword Cultivators in Xianmen Sect, fully supporting him, perhaps even to an extent exceeding the laws of Xianmen Sect.

The worries of Sun Extinguisher Heavenly Monarch and other senior predecessors were not misplaced.

In just a thousand years, such a massive interest group had emerged within Xianmen Sect, marked strongly with his personal imprint.

“Teacher…”

Under Jiang Ding’s gaze, the voices of Hua Xiaohua and the other faded, their heads lowered like little children, even though they were already mid-stage Nascent Soul Practitioners, revered as ancestors in the outside world.

“Don’t be like this.”

“Hua Xiaohua, Fang Yilong, you need to go and polish up on your ideological and moral courses.”

Jiang Ding sighed and said, “Immortal Gate Sword Cultivators, cultivation, growth, sword refining, and the development of various Sword Dao mystiques, all depend on the platform that is Xianmen Sect, which is why they’ve progressed so quickly.”

“Without Xianmen, there would be no us.”

“Considering your own interests, your own path isn’t wrong; a person who can’t even protect their own interests isn’t fit to be called a natural person, but while defending your own interests, it must also be based on defending the interests of Xianmen.

This is the necessary condition for our long-term development.”

“Do you understand?”

Jiang Ding’s tone became strict.

“…

Yes, Teacher.”

Hua Xiaohua and Fang Yilong replied disheartenedly.

“Haha.”

“Don’t feel indignant on my behalf.”

Jiang Ding chuckled: “I gave up these teaching positions, not because I was dismissed, but because I was promoted, entering the Xianmen Science Institute, becoming the first scholar in the Sword Dao discipline.”

“This is a wonderful thing!”

“Mutual benefit and win-win is the truth; pursuing extreme personal interest is unsustainable.”

“We will heed teacher’s teachings!”

Hua Xiaohua and Fang Yilong said somewhat sadly, bowing deeply in respect.

“Alright, you may go.”

“Being a professor in the Adult Sword Dao Department at Qingfeng University and Beidou University is a good platform.

You should do your job well there, cultivate talents for the Xianmen, and try to earn an opportunity for Divinity Transformation for yourselves.

If it works out, a reunion might be possible thousands of years from now.”

Jiang Ding advised.

“Be wary of arrogance and impetuosity, be down-to-earth and step by step in your tasks.

Don’t aim too high and lose yourself.”

“Yes, Teacher!”

…

After watching his two most outstanding students of the past millennium depart, Jiang Ding looked to his side.

“These little ones…”

A blond young man frowned.

Around him were Canghai Heavenly Monarch, Pingyang Heavenly Monarch, Niri Heavenly Monarch, and others, seeing off Jiang Ding, for it would be a long time before they saw him again.

“Brother, it’s just human nature!”

“Nothing unusual.”

Canghai Heavenly Monarch smiled: “Back then, Yuan, Divine Mechanism Heavenly Monarch, and Heavenly Monarch Wanji faced similar situations, even more daunting ones.

They almost monopolized the education of materials science, Formation Method, and Array Spirit knowledge in Xianmen, with disciples in all walks of life, and everyone was their student.”

“Teaching for too long inevitably leads to such situations.”

“It’ll be fine as time passes.”

“Come on, let’s not talk about this, let’s drink…”

Everyone raised their glasses while Jiang Ding stuck to his juice.

Compared to the farewell with the Nascent Soul Monks, the atmosphere here was much lighter.

A thousand years to Heavenly Monarchs is like a mortal going away to university, not very remote, and not about life or death.”

“Sun Extinguisher Senior,”

Jiang Ding asked, “When will Xianmen ‘Refining Nothingness’ be born?”

He hadn’t forgotten this matter.

This could significantly shake the foundation of Xianmen’s existence, as for the first time there would be a huge imbalance in martial power among the internal cultivators, potentially causing trouble.”

“Between two to three hundred years.”

Sun Extinguisher Heavenly Monarch pondered, saying, “We have all participated in the Refining Nothingness project.

The progress should be roughly similar, without any explosive breakthroughs.”

“Don’t worry, I will call you when the time comes.”

“Okay.”

Jiang Ding nodded in agreement.

If extreme situations arise, he might need to use Sword Intent to lock down the Divine Souls of the newly born Early Stage Void Refining Practitioners to provide calibration for the Immortal Sect’s Sixth Order Forbidden Nuclear Weapons.

It would be best if such a situation does not occur.

Those capable of ascending to Refining Nothingness are inevitably the most talented and wise beings in the Immortal Sect.

They should be leading the impending leaps in development, helping the Immortal Sect to break through to becoming a Harmonization Level power.

It would be a great pity if such extraordinary individuals had to fight each other in a civil war.

However, if it’s unavoidable, then it must be so.

As everyone casually chatted, time swiftly passed by.

Wine cups lay scattered on the ground.

Several Heavenly Monarchs, drunk and staggering, flew out of the Great Sun Heavenly Pond together.

Jiang Ding saw them off from behind.

“Please stay awhile longer.”

“This is far enough.”

The Sun Extinguisher Heavenly Monarch, steadied by someone, waved his hand: “You go to sleep first, I need to go home.

Don’t go out again; it could delay your sleep.”

“Okay, seniors, please go slowly.”

Jiang Ding said with a smile.

As he watched several Heavenly Monarchs flying away until their figures disappeared, he then returned into the Sun Abyss.

“Yue, start it up.”

Jiang Ding, looking at his arm that had healed, walked towards the core of the Great Sun Heavenly Pond and spoke softly.

“Yes, Swordsman!”

Yue bowed respectfully and softly spoke: “I wish you a peaceful hibernation.

May the Power of Order be born in the Sword Realm as you wish, making your future ascension to Refining Nothingness and Harmonization much easier.”

“Hmm.”

Jiang Ding nodded slightly.

The ground split open, revealing white-hot rock voids and layers of sun-like steps.

Ignoring the high temperatures that could incinerate Nascent Soul Cultivators, he stepped into it one step at a time.

“Ding!”

“Following the citizen’s instructions, taking control of the Planet-Level Warship – Great Sun Heavenly Pond Formation, taking control of the core hibernation formation, setting up emergency escape pods…”

The voice of the Central Array Spirit Computer emerged.

Simultaneously, a terrifying Divine Sense power, surpassing the Peak of Void Refinement, surged in, beginning to execute a series of pre-set programs.

“This accursed inanimate object!”

Yue was very displeased.

But she was powerless to stop it.

The Central Array Spirit Computer of the Eastern Devil School, possessing a fearsome power that surpassed that of Immortal Sect Great Powers, even when the Great Sun Sword Master Xi Yuan was alive, one dare not take it lightly, let alone now that the Great Sun Swordsman had opened all array permissions to it, making prevention a non-starter.

“Swordsman.”

“Although the Sword Master doesn’t allow you to comprehend Immortal Techniques, you’ve still reaped benefits.

Under the influence of Immortal Technique, the likelihood of birthing the Power of Order is increasing in you.”

Yue did not forget the matter at hand, reminding: “Don’t forget the Great Sun Hibernation Art I entrusted to you.

During your sleep, transform into the ‘pseudo-Heavenly Dao’ of the Sword Realm, carefully examine your Sword Realm to promote the birth of the Power of Order, which is closely linked to your path, life, Sword Realm, Flying Sword, etc…”

She kept babbling about the key points of the Great Sun Hibernation Art, which she had already spoken of countless times, as if she was facing a three-year-old child, fearing that he might forget.

“Hmm, don’t worry.”

“Yue, a mere Power of Order is nothing troublesome for me.”

Jiang Ding smiled.

Unknowingly, he arrived at the deepest part of the Great Sun Heavenly Pond.

Here, it was like a sea of magma-like radiance, making his body and Divine Soul feel warm.

Drowsiness started to build in his heart, growing denser, his eyelids fighting each other.

“Yawn…”

Jiang Ding yawned.

His body gradually collapsed into countless Sword Qis, then further collapsed into countless bluegold Spiritual Lights, melting into the surrounding radiance, indistinguishable from each other.

Hu~

Huhu~

A moment later, gentle snoring sounds emerged within this brilliantly radiant space, with the endless light fluctuating like tides with the breathing.

He, had fallen asleep.
