Chapter 805: Destroying the Demon Alliance

"Yes!"

At a single command, the Xunfeng Attendant Hei Hei Louxi, Zhenyang Attendant, Lei Ting Attendant, and others spread their Nascent Soul domains, binding all deputy officials except Gong Gong Caiyu.

"Master!"

"No, we know our wrongs, please give us one more chance…"

"The Nascent Soul Master Dinghai Zhenjun is too powerful, we had no choice, this is not a crime of cowardice…"

The cold, cruel verdict was handed down.

Li Li Xiushui and the other attendants wailed and screamed, tears streaming down like pear blossoms in rain, sobbing for mercy, defending themselves with many reasons that seemed perfectly reasonable.

Two hundred years of confinement!

Stripping of all rewards, including the Nascent Soul opportunity!

Dao Heart score permanently zero!

Each of these three points drove into their hearts and lungs like steel nails, nailing their Dao path firmly in place, leaving them without any chance of Nascent Soul.

Most of these people were only of middling talent—at least within the Master Tushan Attendant Corps, which had gathered many heroes of the Northern Plains.

Without the convenience of the Dao Heart factor, they had no ability to glimpse the great Dao of Nascent Soul, and would be utterly dimmed.

"Take them away. If they resist, execute them on the spot. No need for further words."

Jiang Ding waved his hand, coldly, without any consideration.

Cultivators who had lost their foundation should be treated as such.

At this moment, he was also examining his own heart—what was his own foundation?

The Immortal Gate, the Sword Dao.

Nothing more.

Jiang Ding saw his own foundation clearly, without any fog.

Without the Immortal Gate.

If the Immortal Gate were breached and slaughtered by the Badaxian Sect, his Great Sun Nascent Soul Secret Art, his next-step Gong Fa, the Super Warship and Super Sky Mother Ship projects, and his sword technique research would all grind to a halt instantly.

Things that originally would have taken three or four hundred years to develop might not be enough in three thousand, or thirty thousand years!

This was a domain-overlord-level external brain!

How could exploring some cave dwelling, some senior's opportunity, or some miraculous elixir make up for it?

A moment later, the sobbing Li Li Xiushui and the other attendants were taken away by Hei Hei Louxi and the other titled attendants, stored in storage bags, and the noisy voices disappeared.

"New deputy official…"

Jiang Ding looked at Gong Gong Caiyu with an inquiring gaze.

Now, she was the highest-ranking political-work attendant in the Master Tushan Attendant Corps. Jiang Ding had always disliked doing everything himself, and was very willing to respect the opinions of professionals.

"Young Master, just select the most outstanding attendants from the lower ranks and transfer them over."

Gong Gong Caiyu raised her little face, not showing the slightest fear at the killing intent of the youth before her.

Just like many years ago when they first met, it was the same; with the passage of time, she had long grown accustomed.

"Then let it be so."

"Announce this matter to all attendants, especially the deputy attendants of each department. Let them take it as a warning, and not forget what their foundation for survival is."

Jiang Ding nodded.

"Right, rewards and punishments—I recall someone telling me that these two must be carried out together."

"Do you have a Nascent Soul opportunity?"

Jiang Ding asked.

Offenders punished severely, those who Li Xia Gong rewarded.

Both were extremely important to the survival of an organization, and having received complete education from the Immortal Gate, he naturally would not ignore this.

"Young Master, I do."

Gong Gong Caiyu quickly said: "As a deputy Xunfeng Attendant, I received the Wang Ting token and obtained a Nascent Soul opportunity in Wangting Wangting Fudi. I just haven't prepared yet, my accumulation is insufficient, and many others are the same… this is also one of the reasons for the internal chaos in the Attendant Corps."

She took out a Core-Forming Pill, showing it off as if to flaunt.

Hei Hei Louxi and the other attendants looked straight ahead, as if it had nothing to do with them.

"I'll give you something even better."

Jiang Ding's divine sense swept over this Core-Forming Pill, found no problems, thought for a moment, rummaged through his storage jade pendant for a while, and took out three items.

"Infant Condensing Yuan Liquid, Spirit Condensing Soup, and Heavenly Crystal Dust."

"Their function is to stabilize the divine soul and dantian, reduce inner demons, and they can assist your Core-Forming Pill. That's all."

Jiang Ding pushed these three items to Gong Gong Caiyu.

These items had been seized, their original imprints, auras, and names erased.

They seemed to be from Chong Chong Yuanzi or Shadow Demon Dao Zi—he couldn't remember. In any case, they weren't anything important; even these two Dao Zi themselves didn't value them, and had tucked them away in obscure corners of their storage magic treasures.

"Thank you, Young Master."

Gong Gong Caiyu's little face flushed red as she accepted these three items.

Zhenyang Attendant, Lei Ting Attendant, and the others were extremely envious.

These things—they could hardly dream of such things when forming their Nascent Souls. They had only relied on one or two opportunities, fighting desperately with no retreat, and hadn't been so well-off.

Barring the unexpected, several decades from now, another Nascent Soul-rank attendant would appear.

Many people's eyes lit up.

Their master appeared to be very powerful, and very wealthy.

"That's all then."

"Just cultivate in peace, don't think about those irrelevant things."

Jiang Ding sat on the Wang Zuo and said indifferently, "You and I are both cultivators, tasked with achieving immortality. We should value harmony. When it is not a time to fight over the Dao, do your best to ensure your own safety, silently accumulate foundations, and wait for the right moment."

This was meant to draw a period to this cleansing and correction.

"Yes!"

Hei Hei Louxi and others breathed a sigh of relief, feeling as though they had survived a calamity.

"My Lord,"

after hesitating for a moment, Chun Chun Jian, who still served as Head Maid, reported, "Dong Xue Liu Yun has already advanced to Nascent Soul. One of the Blood Cloud Eighteen Riders has also advanced; it is Dong Xue Shou Ren Mo, Li Tu.

Apart from that, taking advantage of the chaos across the Northern Plains and the spread of Nascent Soul Gong Fa, scattered cultivators and heroes have risen up, either through opportunity or by risking everything, to advance to Nascent Soul."

It is possible to advance to Nascent Soul even without a Nascent Soul opportunity.

The possibility is just very small; many must die. It is equivalent to gambling one's life.

"Nowadays, excluding us, the Northern Plains has at least ten to twenty scattered cultivator Master Dinghai Master Dinghai Zhenjun without territories. Some have been accepted by major powers, while others have not. However, most Master Dinghai Master Dinghai Zhenjun of scattered cultivator origins are extremely wary and unwilling to rashly enter a certain sect."

"But the cultivation of a Master Dinghai Master Dinghai Zhenjun requires a Fourth-Grade Spirit Vein; otherwise, it cannot be sustained."

"Therefore, their gaze has fallen upon the Zhengmo Alliance, whose strength has declined significantly. Led by Dong Xue Liu Yun, they have formed a 'Demon-Slaying Alliance'."

They intend to destroy the Zhengmo Alliance, or carve out a large territory from the Zhengmo Alliance to use themselves, pass down to their family, or establish a sect."

"The 'Demon-Slaying Alliance' leader, Dong Xue Liu Yun, has invited us to join the alliance, saying he is willing to yield the position of Alliance Leader to us."

"I do not know how we should respond?"

Chun Chun Jian asked.

The Master Tushan Maidens' Group and the Blood Cloud Eighteen Riders have a grudge; they have annihilated their troops many times in the past.

But that was before.

Now that they have advanced to Nascent Soul, it is completely different. Because of shared interests, an alliance is not impossible.

Furthermore, the reason the Master Tushan Maids had been lying low before was that, after losing the protection of the Cause-and-Effect Art of Shuo Yang Master Canghai Canghai Tianjun, their strength was insufficient, forcing them to hide and focus on breaking through to Nascent Soul.

Now, of the nine maids... five maids have advanced to Nascent Soul. Naturally, there is no need to fear anymore. The 108,000 maids scattered across various places can be recalled.

With the five Nascent Soul maids, under the pressure of the military formation, even a peak Nascent Soul cultivator would not be too afraid.

"Demon-Slaying Alliance?"

Jiang Ding pondered in silence.
