Chapter 2105: Suppressing the World with One Hand

Jiang Ding turned and looked at the massive army before him.

On the left, flags stood in a forest, blood qi filled the sky, and a dim yellow aura of the Dharma-Ending Age spread out.

One after another, Supreme Ones, Heavenly Ones, and Dao-Integration cultivators stood like javelins; each wore standard-issue helmets, face masks, standard-issue magical treasures and weapons, standard-issue gloves, standard-issue shoes, standard-issue talismans, standard-issue array devices... from head to toe, they looked like armored iron men.

They were armed to the teeth, with not a single inch of flesh exposed.

This full set of magical treasures was not haphazardly matched; when the complete set was combined, the array patterns on the helmets, armor, boots, jade pendants, and other treasures connected to form a small "Supreme Great Sun Annihilation Array," integrating offense and defense... mainly offense, with defense as a mere afterthought, peerlessly sharp, truly the extreme of offensive might.

The attached Supreme Great Sun Annihilation Arrays varied in rank; the lowest was a Foundation Establishment Stage Two Supreme Great Sun Annihilation Array, while the highest was a Ninth-Rank High-Grade Supreme Great Sun Annihilation Array comparable to the power of an Eight-Tribulation Supreme One, and it naturally possessed array coupling functions, where lower-rank arrays would spontaneously merge into higher-rank arrays, causing the array's power to surge layer by layer.

This was the Dao Soldier Corps of the Supreme Great Sun Sword Immortal, a Dao Soldier Corps composed of all the geniuses and all the powerful ones from the Seven Great Star Regions.

It was forged through nearly a million years of Immortal Dao wisdom.

This set of equipment, this entire array system, and the Supreme Ones, Heavenly Ones, Dao-Integration, Void-Refining, and Soul Transformation cultivators forming these arrays contained the achievements of the Seven Great Star Regions in forging, arrays, talismans, military formations, education, and all other aspects; if any single aspect had a weakness, this elite army could not have been formed.

At the center of all the armies was a dusk war banner fluttering in the inter-realm Nether Gales, radiating a distinct aura of Transcendence.

This was the application of the Supreme Great Sun Primordial Ancient Script, the solidification of Jiang Ding's Immortal Dao Universe Constant Empirical Formula, the military formation heavy weapon of the Supreme Great Sun Path, and the core of each of the Eight Armies.

Each of the eight armies had a military banner forged under Jiang Ding's supervision.

These military banners would cause the army's power to surge dramatically, granting them strength akin to a True Immortal, capable of easily sweeping away enemies who were not True Immortals.

This was the earth-shattering change brought by the Immortal Dao True Immortal to her subordinates; everything was different, akin to a god-level civilization within a material civilization, full of miracles.

These Dao Soldiers were naturally the Seven Great Ancient Human Dao Soldiers: Qingfeng Qingfeng Beidou, Seven Killings, Greedy Wolf, and Broken Army; now, strengthened greatly by the True Immortal, they were uniformly trained, uniformly equipped, and possessed a unified will.

The final Dao Soldier corps had the fewest people, only over one hundred thousand; unlike the other armies which numbered tens or hundreds of millions, their numbers were not even a fraction of the others, almost negligible.

However, the aura of this army was actually the strongest!

Like a peerlessly sharp flying sword that destroys and breaks Dharma, its mere existence seemed poised to tear apart the rules of ten thousand Dao, numerous causes and effects, hidden within the Heavenly Dao, ready to deliver a fatal strike at any moment.

This was the Supreme Great Sun Dao Soldier!

The main formation supervisor was the former Eight-Step Dao Son, Wildfire Sword Son; under him were thirteen Supreme Ones, all walking the Supreme Great Sun Sword Path and having independently opened up extreme branches of rules.

The Supreme Great Sun Sword Path!

This was the Great Dao opened by the Supreme Great Sun Sword Immortal, extremely vast with infinite potential; this was a proven fact, so naturally, geniuses and heroes from between the star regions threw themselves into it, one after another, without regret until death.

Now, hundreds of thousands of years have passed, and these countless geniuses and heroes walking this Sword Path have finally carved out their own paths upon the bones of countless failures.

Thirteen Supreme Great Sun Sword Path Supreme Ones were born!

This was absolutely not the end; a path opened by a True Immortal could certainly not end with just thirteen Supreme Ones; there must be more opportunities.

Under these thirteen Supreme Great Sun Supreme Ones were all Supreme Great Sun Sword Cultivators!

Every Supreme Great Sun Sword Cultivator was at least a top genius in the Great Thousand World, with cultivation at least at the Dao-Integration level; even the weakest cultivators possessed Dao-Integration cultivation. That such geniuses were merely the weakest soldiers of the Supreme Great Sun Sword Dao Soldier corps shows the terror of this True Immortal's Imperial Guard.

This was also the only army embroidered with a Golden Flying Sword on the Primordial Ancient Script military banner.

And this did not end there.

All Supreme Ones and Dao Sons were naturally members of the Supreme Great Sun Sword Dao Soldiers.

When needed, numerous Supreme Ones and Dao Sons would lead their armies to join the military formation of the Supreme Great Sun Sword Dao Soldiers, amplifying the power of this Dao Soldier corps like a leap.

This was the army under the Supreme Great Sun Sword Immortal, an army refined through years of coordination within the Immortal Dao industrial system.

Everyone gazed at the young man in green robes in the distance, their eyes filled with fanaticism and longing.

This Human True Immortal said nothing, simply drawing his sword.

Clang!

"Everyone,"

"Advance, break through all obstacles, and restore the ancestral lands of the Human Race!"

Jiang Ding drew his sword and said calmly.

"Yes!"

"Sword Master, we shall not return unless we win! We shall not return unless we win!"

Seven Killings Sword Venerable, Harmony Dao Lord, Qingfeng Qingfeng Beidou Supreme One, Wildfire Supreme One, and others roared out.

They formed a military formation and surged toward the realm portal like sheets of sharp fish scales, without the slightest hesitation, their eyes full of longing for the enemy and for glory.

Beside these cultivators was a fleet carrying an aura of Dharma-destroying power; without the slightest hesitation, it flew into the realm channel.

This was the Immortal Gate Deep Space Fleet; the First through Ninth Deep Space Fleets had all deployed for battle.

The supreme commander of this massive fleet was Yuan, who had been granted the position of Supreme Commander by the Immortal Gate Citizen Assembly a hundred years ago, once again taking command of the Immortal Gate's strongest fleet to launch an expedition against enemies in the distance.

The citizens' departure was not due to the True Immortal's orders.

It was the order of the Citizen Assembly.

Because Immortal Gate cultivators longed for resources, for merit, and for the Great Dao, unwilling to be mediocre in a peaceful environment, they set forth without looking back.

Yuan's true body departed with the Immortal Gate fleet.

His avatar stood beside the True Immortal, evaluating and calculating these armies, his eyes constantly flickering as he secretly estimated how to suppress them in the shortest time if these star region armies rebelled.

This possibility existed.

The Sword Immortal's drastic reforms, which stripped the Immortal Sects of almost all military, political, and financial power, leaving only their educational and research functions, occurred only six thousand years ago.

This time was simply too short!

For Immortal Sects with long lineages, what difference was there between this and a few months ago?

Internal dissatisfaction must have accumulated in vast quantities!

Immortal Sect cultivators whose interests were severely damaged were everywhere; dark emotions were accumulating.

If the battlefield situation changed, the possibility of these cultivators rebelling existed and could not be ignored.

"Senior Yuan, there is no need to worry about anything."

"Even if the whole world rebels, it is nothing major; I can suppress it with one hand."

Jiang Ding stood with his hands behind his back, gazing into the distance; various things in the Tianma Star Region seemed to appear one after another in his pupils, and he said calmly, "Therefore, there will be no rebellion."
