Bombarding Cultivators with Cluster Artillery-Chapter 281 - 270 Teleportation Formation is a Good Thing for Saving Lives_1
"The target is jumping through irregular teleportation."
"Coordinates of suspected short-distance teleportation formation have been recorded."
"The target is currently at coordinates (...), jumping and reappearing over five hundred kilometers away..."
Jiang Dingfei was in the sky, streaks of white vapor trails from one hundred and eight air-space warplanes roared past, quickly reporting coordinates based on the sensed location within the sword intent against a military map.
"The foundation-building Qi practitioners and Taoist soldiers from the three sects are still engaged in water conservancy and restoration of civil affairs in Li Country, as well as the eradication of the leftover Liyun demon cultivators. Have them destroy these short-distance teleportation arrays in the vicinity."
Jiang Ding suggested.
There was no need to worry about any slack in execution or underhanded tactics.
Each foundation-building team came equipped with Taoist soldier combat recorders, so their mission records could be accessed at any time, and the determination of various merits was based on these records.
With so many teleportation formations, it's impossible for each one to be guarded by the magic of a Golden Pill cultivator. Even if a few were, dozens of foundation-building cultivators, accompanied by thousands of Qi practitoners, would be enough to destroy them.
"Okay, got it."
Jin Lingfeng agreed subconsciously, issuing the command through the group headquarters command system.
"Entering the first short-distance teleportation formation coordinates, it's here that the dark gold blood exhibited significant coordinate fluctuations."
Jiang Ding pointed at a small river on the military map about ninety kilometers away.
"Understood!"
One air-space warplane's missile bay deployed a hunter missile, which with a burst of flames and a trailing white vapor, vanished from sight.
In a few breaths, it reached a spot over ninety kilometers away.
The missile precisely hit the river, burrowing into it, and the footage relayed by the hunter missile was viewed by everyone in the Sky Celestial Group.
The missile's watery magic shone brightly as it pierced through several meters of water flow, suddenly clearing, and revealing a space of tens of meters.
Part of it was the river, and part of it was a space that had been carved out of the river banks and bed.
Many areas were covered with thick dust, with the occasional tea table and such that were tremendously old, the signs of age clearly etched upon them.
Only the teleportation formation's array pattern at the center remained as clean as new.
"Immortal Li Hai... He had been preparing his escape route for at least a few hundred years." An Siyan exclaimed in amazement, "If it weren't for his reluctance to abandon that dark gold blood drop, it would not have been easy to capture him even at the Golden Pill peak."
"Those who've lived over five to six hundred years are all incredibly crafty."
Jiang Ding commended as well, taking note silently.
For those without relevant talents, teleportation formations are difficult, but not impossible to learn, and the teleportation technology of the Xianmen Sect is far superior to that of Immortal Li Hai, as are their artifact refining materials.
One teleportation could cover a thousand li distance.
With several teleportations laid out and combined with a foundation-building realm sensitivity like An Tuzi that can sense life-threatening auras from far beyond a hundred li with top-level sword intent...
Together, these would significantly increase one's sense of security.
Although teleportation formations should be expensive.
Immortal Li Hai's talents could offset some of the costs, but not for others.
The missile plunged into the teleportation formation.
Boom!
Amidst the intense fire and explosion, the entire teleportation formation was blown sky-high, river waters splashed backward, and a deep crater appeared where it had been, with river water slowly flowing back after some time.
"The next teleportation formation is five hundred and twenty-seven kilometers away."
Jiang Ding continued, in no rush to pursue the target.
The air-space warplane formation flew for a while.
Another hunter missile dropped, trailing a white vapor until it disappeared in front of them, burrowing into the center of a hill, shattering the natural cave inside. The foundation-building puppets arranged near the teleportation formation were blown away before they had time to react.
At the same time, foundation-building cultivator squads scattered throughout Li Country began moving, destroying the teleportation arrays near them.
The process was more complicated, not as clean and efficient, entangled in combat with puppets guarding the teleportation arrays, sometimes calling for help from fellow cultivators elsewhere.
But the outcome was the same in the end.
In less than half a day, all the teleportation formations that Immortal Li Hai had used after obtaining the dark gold blood were destroyed.
"He's stopped using short-distance teleportation to move; he's lingering on the border between the Ancient Wood Sect's Wood Country and Li Country."
"Teleportation formations are quite expensive. I wonder how many more he has?"
Jiang Ding said indifferently.
...
Huangjiashan Mountain.
This is the border between the Wood Country and Li Country, the ancestral land of Huang's Cultivator Clan, where a lower class of second-order Spiritual Vein resides.
The Huang Clan did not partake in the Li Country's rebellion; on the contrary, many of the clan members, including the foundation-building elder ancestors, were secretly assassinated by Liyun Sect, and they actively participated in the eradication of the Liyun Demon Cultivators. After the war, they were not implicated.
Unknown to anyone, in a hidden room at the heart of their Spiritual Vein, a teleportation Formation's light flickered.
A middle-aged man with a cold gaze stepped out.
Elder Ancestor of the Liyun Sect,
The source of this c𝓸ntent is frёeweɓηovel.coɱ.
Immortal Li Hai.
"Pfft!"
As soon as he appeared, he spat out a mouthful of blood, his body staggered uncontrollably, and he exhaled a fragrant Dark Golden Blood Drop that produced a clanging sound of Sword Qi, piercingly sharp.
"It won't do! The Sword Intent is still there, I can't refine it!"
"What kind of Sword Intent is this, it's only mid-stage foundation building!"
Immortal Li Hai roared lowly.
He exhaled Elixir Fire, mana surged in wildly, the orange-red flames grew more intense, and the Dark Gold Blood floated within, being slowly purified of impurities.
The Air Spiritual Root inhaled and exhaled the Heavenly Earth Spiritual Qi, drawing strands of spatial otherness that made the orange-red Elixir Fire gain an ambiguous quality, speeding up the refinement process.
Under the smelting of the Elixir Fire, strands of slight blue impurities fell, melting the ground into deep pits with smooth, sharp edges.
"It's too slow, it will take at least seven days..."
"If I had the classics-grade practice methods, this wouldn't happen. Xianmen took my classics-grade practice methods, the space attribute classics-grade practice methods that belong to me!"
Immortal Li Hai's eyes filled with hatred and madness.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh!
In the distance, the whizzing sound of missiles tearing through the air could be heard.
Detecting the aura of Golden Pill Monks, a barrage of missiles from a Sky Celestial Camp took off, forming a third-order attack spell that fell from the sky, and the massive Spiritual Pressure covered several miles.
"Xianmen missiles!"
"My Huang Clan has always been obedient, why..."
The elder at the peak of Qi Practicing from the Huang Clan yelled in horror, disregarding everything, desperately fleeing into the distance.
The missile ignored him, shooting straight through the ancestral home and into the underground cultivation chamber.
"Demon School, you deserve to die!"
In the void, an angry shout was heard, and a cloud-colored glazed Flying Sword shot out, the spatial aura hazy as it passed through the cores of thirty-six missiles and obliterated them.
Flames and debris exploded violently, with the Golden Pill's pressure emerging.
"Elder Ancestor Li Hai!"
The Huang Elder screamed in even more terror, burning his Essence Blood, speeding up a great deal once again.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh!
Missiles tore through the sky again, and at an ultra-long distance of seventy to eighty kilometers, a total of one hundred and eight Hunter missiles fell.
"Divide!"
Immortal Li Hai commanded coldly, the cloud-colored glazed Flying Sword flickered indistinctly, splitting into three beams of Sword Qi that remained unchanged in strength, slicing all the missiles of the three Sky Celestial Camps down.
Boom!
A sound of an air explosion echoed faintly, with glimpses of azure light sparkling.
"It's you again!"
Immortal Li Hai showed a look of intense hatred but dared not delay any further and quickly hid inside the teleportation Formation, with the indistinct light of teleportation emerging.
Whoosh!
The Azure Flying Sword arrived, slashing his indistinct body and the teleportation Formation into pieces.
A few breaths later.
Jiang Ding appeared in the place, closing his eyes to sense the surroundings, with a trace of surprise.
"Tianhai Sect, he headed in the direction of Tianhai Sect, and moreover, he's very close to the Tianhai Sect's mountain gate."
"Good, we were going to investigate it together anyway."
