CHAPTER 1645: CHAPTER 1613: CENTRAL ARRAY SPIRIT COMPUTER RESTORED TO NORMAL

The final location, the Central Processor of the Central Array Spirit Computer.

Jiang Ding pressed his hand on the hilt and walked slowly.

This was a hazy world, like a dream, with all sorts of unimaginable scenes appearing at any moment. There were no skies above, no earth below, no universe or time, everything was in disarray.

Here was the final resting place of the Ancient God Ancestor Master’s Soul.

Here was also the core of the Central Array Spirit Computer Processor, the place where sages with excellent morality from successive generations of the Xianmen Sect returned to their souls. For countless years, the heroes who sacrificed for the Xianmen Sect found their final resting place here.

The first generation ruler of the Xianmen Sect, Yuan, who established the initial Central Array Spirit Computer; his Divine Soul was buried here.

The second generation ruler of the Xianmen Sect, Cong, who inherited Yuan’s road; his Divine Soul was buried here.

The sixth generation ruler of the Xianmen Sect, Wu, who completely liberated the Xianmen Sect from enslavement, established Qingfeng University and Beidou University, founded many research institutes and laboratories, laying various foundations for the future development and expansion of the Xianmen Sect; his Divine Soul was buried here.

Everyone who walks the path of the Xianmen Sect finds their final resting place here.

If Jiang Ding cannot continue his Immortal Path in the future, and his life ends, he will also be buried here... Here, is the core of the Xianmen Sect’s highest civilization artifact.

Even if not reaching the eighth rank, not even being quasi-eighth-rank, it stubbornly resisted the seizing by a Heavenly Man’s soul for thousands of years, always unbeaten.

The surrounding world changed suddenly.

"Kill, kill, kill..."

"Charge, charge..."

Jiang Ding entered a vast and boundless world, with countless warriors in various attires and different warships, all charging towards one place, shouting endlessly.

Their charge crashed against a cold, black mountain.

Like waves crashing against a reef, they shattered instantly into countless drops, unable to shake the mountain at all.

But they never admit defeat, never give up, and they haven’t perished. They continue to charge, battling eternally, never relinquishing.

Jiang Ding’s nose tingled.

This is the will of the Immortal Sect Citizens, an echo of countless deceased citizens from past histories, never abandoning the fight.

Jiang Ding looked towards the center.

An elder with gray hair and beard stood atop the black mountain, hands behind his back, quietly watching him.

The two gazed at each other for a long time.

"Young friend,"

"I, the old man, have one question I cannot understand."

The voice of the Ancient God Ancestor was hoarse and timeworn, "I clearly have occupied the core of this dead object, controlling all its spirituality, why can I not seize complete control over all its spirituality?"

"For thousands of years, I have been trying."

"Even with a Heavenly Man’s treasure, I had some chance of complete control. The difficulty wasn’t too high, but for a mere seventh-rank top-grade special Treasure, I have been helpless."

"This is truly perplexing."

"I wonder, young friend, can you teach me?"

The Ancient God Ancestor showed a trace of gloom.

Although he had seized all the Treasure’s spirituality, the dead object remained unmasterable, ultimately eroding and birthing a logic independent of his control.

This was the primary reason for his failure in this battle.

If this object known as the Central Array Spirit Computer had been completely seized from the start, he would not have failed, even against this being fond of maintaining a youthful appearance.

Clang~

Jiang Ding slowly drew out his Longsword, the dark golden blade gradually revealing itself.

"The reason lies in,"

"The Central Array Spirit Computer’s spirituality isn’t centralized, lacking the independent spirituality of traditional Treasure. The Central Array Spirit Computer... is an artifact created by the collective will of the Xianmen Sect."

Jiang Ding spoke calmly.

"This artifact of collective will consists of deceased and current Immortal Sect Citizens, without an absolute center called ’Emperor’ or ’Sovereign’. Destroying, occupying, and transforming the Central Array Spirit Computer’s core does not obliterate its will."

"The recognition of the Central Array Spirit Computer’s core by the Immortal Sect’s collective will is because the core represents their will."

"The core is not their Sovereign."

"You seized the Central Array Spirit Computer’s core, yet it does not represent the will of the Xianmen Sect sages, nor does it meet constitutional programs; how could you possibly replace the Central Array Spirit Computer’s core entirely?"

"How ridiculous it is."

"A beggar found the Imperial Jade Seal, does he think he is an Emperor?"

The youth’s voice mocked.

The sword’s edge began to unleash a terrifying aura of destruction.

It grew increasingly intense, increasingly cold; a top quasi-Heavenly Sword Cultivator was gathering power, an ominous Sword Soul attack was taking shape, about to unleash fearsome brilliance.

Not to mention the soul of a Heavenly Man, even a true Heavenly Man could be wounded if careless under such a Sword Soul attack.

Moreover, always unable to fully control the Central Array Spirit Computer’s spirituality, the Heavenly Man’s soul was gradually weakened by the relentless assault of the Xianmen Sect sages’ will.

When the Great Sun Sword Master’s Sword Soul came here, his destiny was already sealed.

From beginning to end, the Ancient God Ancestor Master’s soul never had any chance of completely seizing the Central Array Spirit Computer; his only option was destruction without gaining any benefit.

"The core is not the Sovereign of Treasure’s spirituality..."

"Is it decentralized Treasure spirituality?"

The Ancient God Ancestor was stunned.

He seemed to completely overlook that his death was near, plunging into frantic thought, his soul ceaselessly pondering and seeking answers.

"But how can decentralized Treasure have power?"

"Every strand of Treasure spirituality has its own will, its own habits; decentralization is doomed to be like scattered sand, weak and powerless, easily obliterated by even lower-rank Cultivators.

This dead object is absolutely not weak among the same rank, on the contrary, very strong, completely defying common sense..."

"Forcibly altering the will of all Treasure spirituality with Incense Power to unify them?"

"This too won’t work, there are issues..."

"How did you achieve this, this..."

The Ancient God Ancestor’s thinking stuck in a dead-end, he screamed frantically, "No! You’re deceiving me, you brat!"

"This must be some unknown opportunity you acquired, allowing you to achieve this outrageous thing!"

"Dare to deceive this old man, you’re courting death..."

"Roar!"

His figure, and the black mountain underfoot, suddenly transformed into a fearsome beast with six heads, six tails, and six wings, lunging to devour the green-clothed youth in the sky.

Clang!

The Sword Cultivator, who had been gathering momentum for a long time, finally struck.

The Sword-light cleaved straight through the beast’s head, then returned to its sheath.

"This is where you are weak."

"And your destiny will surely die under my sword in the future."

Jiang Ding spoke calmly.

The monstrous beast with six heads, wings, and tails froze, solidifying in mid-air.

Then, with a golden sword scar appearing at its center, the scar expanded, tearing it into halves. The Sword Qi on the wound turned into True Sunfire, consuming it completely, leaving not a speck behind. Even the Heavenly Man’s soul was utterly destroyed.

The Central Processor’s spirituality blossomed with light, infinite code logic rapidly constructed, once more forming a legitimate core recognized by the Xianmen Sect’s collective will.

The Central Array Spirit Computer, restored to normalcy!
