Splitting the Heavens - Chapter 1011: Six Direction True Immortal
There were 2 major points in a breakthrough to the Martial Void Realm. The first was the complete transformation to a Void Origin, and the second was to connect to their world.
There wasn’t much to talk about the first point as forming a Void Origin was the basis of being in the Martial Void Realm. However… Forming a connection to their world was the true sign of a True Immortal. It would enable them to utilize the power of their world.
If the transformation process of their Dipper Origin to a Void Origin was time consuming and the longest part of the process, the connection to the World Origin Source was actually the most risky process.
There would be experts who completed the transformation process but failed to connect to the World Origin Source, wasting their efforts on the very last step.
If one failed their transformation to a Void Origin, there would still be a trace of hope for them to survive. The moment they started the process to connect to the World Origin Source, there was no room for failure. If they failed, they would perish.
That was why every expert who attempted to break through to the Martial Void Realm would do so with fear and trepidation.
When the True Immortals of the Spirit Luxuriant World felt that Shang Xia overreached himself during the process of his Void Origin transformation and wouldn’t be able to easily connect to the World Origin Source, he proved them all wrong and completed it in the blink of an eye!
Actually… Kou Chongxue’s heart was also pounding with fear. He didn’t seem worried because he suppressed his feelings well.
“How… How did he do it so quickly?!”
“Is there something strange about the Tongyou Institution’s rank six advancement inheritance?!”
“Did Patriarch Kou grasp the method of imprinting one’s soul into the World Origin Source?”
“Could it have something to do with how he covered all the power of the world contained in the You Continent?”
After getting over their initial shock, the True Immortals above the heavenly screen no longer held themselves back. They didn’t even care about their image anymore as they started bickering with each other. The air of a True Immortal was nowhere to be seen!
Actually… No one could blame them. After all, Shang Xia’s achievements surpassed anything they knew.
When they were still chatting above the heavenly screen, Shang Xia’s eyes snapped open and his emotions stirred.
Even he didn’t expect to be able to connect to the World Origin Source and leave his soul imprint onto the world so easily.
The feeling where the world would consume the person trying to leave their soul imprint on the world didn’t even kick in when Shang Xia completely shrugged it off. The feeling was what caused endless worry in those trying to break through, but Shang Xia dealt with it effortlessly!
As soon as it happened, Shang Xia understood the true reason behind it. Because of the Heaven and Man Synergy Chapter he had been practicing a long time ago, his divine soul reached a monstrous level. He also managed to come up with his Five Element Movement Art and learned how to assimilate every element into one. It was the same feeling as when he tried to connect to the World Origin Source and he shrugged it off easily.
The next moment, Shang Xia finally felt like the power of the world he failed to control earlier listening to his every intention. As long as he willed it, he would be able to wield massive power. There was also a strong urge telling him to hurry up and draw on the power of the world.
However, as the feeling grew stronger, his soul imprint that had already been branded into the world started to pulse frantically, trying to give him a warning.
Naturally, Shang Xia wouldn’t fall into the trap and wield the power of the world. During his advancement, he managed to project his Void Origin over the You Continent, allowing him to gain control of the power of the world contained in it. That didn’t mean that he could easily draw on it. Especially since he just broke through and hadn’t consolidated his foundations. If he drew on such a huge amount of power of the world, he might immediately be devoured by the world!
He just started on his path in the Six Direction Realm, and there was a long way to go!
Ever since Shang Xia started his breakthrough, his divine soul had covered the You Continent. He knew that as long as he had the intention, he would be able to appear anywhere on the continent.
After feeling the changes in his body, he exhaled softly before muttering to himself, “This is the first tier of the Six Direction Realm, Domain Formation!”
Like the name suggested, it indicated the level of a True Immortal who just created their domain!
After quickly gathering his strength and doing a preliminary consolidation of his transformed dantian, the next day had already arrived.
As the sun started to rise again, Shang Xia could clearly feel himself invigorated by the life force of every living creature in the You Continent.
I guess it’s time to go greet those True Immortals who have gathered above the heavenly screen. If I drag it out any longer, it’s going to seem disrespectful.
Shang Xia thought to himself as he disappeared from his spot.
Above the heavenly screen, those True Immortals who had been waiting for an entire day for Shang Xia showed looks of impatience when he arrived.
With nothing better to do, those True Immortals decided to clear the doubts of the Martial Dipper Realm experts of their factions who came to watch. In fact they would also exchange pointers from time to time and it became a pretty lively affair.
All of a sudden, every single True Immortal stopped talking as they turned to look in a certain direction above the heavenly screen.
By the time they turned to look, Shang Xia had already arrived. With the exception of the True Immortals, there were also several experts in the Martial Dipper Realm who were looking at him. However, they had no idea how he appeared.
“Many thanks for seniors’ patience and for protecting me during the advancement. I am truly grateful for all of you!” Shang Xia didn’t show the slightest trace of arrogance even though he entered the Six Direction Realm. He was respectful when speaking to the True Immortals present.
They might not have been patient, or they might not have been protecting him, but that didn’t matter at the moment. He just entered the Six Direction Realm and there was no need to piss anyone off or make enemies at the moment.
With the exception of Kou Chongxue who accepted his thanks without reservation, the others quickly exchanged some formalities with him and told him not to worry about it.
Lu Wuzi, and Liu Jingsheng, who had a friendlier relationship with the Tongyou Institution also congratulated Shang Xia on his advancement.
Since they already stepped into the Sixth Order of the Primary Realm, they couldn’t accept Shang Xia’s deference even if there were differences in their seniority. All of them were experts in the same level, and they had to show each other a certain level of respect. Zhang Xuansheng was no different. After all, respecting a fellow True Immortal was the same as respecting themselves.
After a round of pleasantries, silence returned.
Shang Xia glanced at the True Immortals present, and he saw solemn expressions hanging on the faces of Zhang Xuansheng, Yang Taihe, Li Jidao, and Liu Jingsheng. Lu Wuzi seemed a lot more relaxed, but he would occasionally stare at Zhang Xuansheng with complicated emotions.
As for Kou Chongxue… He seemed to attain enlightenment as he stood there, completely unperturbed.
Shang Xia quickly understood why Kou Chongxue was acting that way all of a sudden.
A moment later, Liu Jingsheng broke the silence with a dry cough. “Brother Kou, about the Azure Flame World… What do you plan to do now?”
If they truly cared about age… Even Lu Wuzi, who broke through after Kou Chongxue, was probably older than him…
Kou Chongxue swept his gaze across the 4 of them before muttering casually, “I went to the Azure Flame World in secret twice after breaking through to the Martial Void Realm. The first time, I discovered that Yuancang Ming ascended to the Martial Void Realm by relying on his Elysium. The second time, I discovered that the Azure Flame World has been gathering their strength to build massive flying ships that can travel through space.”
Of the True Immortals of the Spirit Luxuriant World, he was the only one who knew how to travel to the Azure Flame World…
Even though Zhang Xuansheng, Yang Taihe, Li Jidao, and Liu Jingsheng had their estimations of where the Azure Flame World was after observing Kou Chongxue’s spatial tunnel, they were no Stargazers! They couldn’t accurately pinpoint the location of the Azure Flame World in the vast sea of stars!
Lu Wuzi might have been to the Azure Flame World, but he was still a Martial Dipper Realm cultivator back then! He had no way to accurately grasp its location either.
As for Shang Xia… He knew where the Azure Flame World was! However, that had nothing to do with him grasping the location of the world during the Spatial Transfer. It was because he managed to obtain the Star Map and learn of its location.
… Whatever it was, he didn’t have the ability to travel through the vast sea of stars back then and he wasn’t able to head over alone.
When he thought about it, Shang Xia raised his head to look in a certain direction in the void. The power of the world contained in the You Continent moved with a single intention and passed through the void to lock on to a solitary world lying in the vast sea of stars.
As long as he wanted to, Shang Xia could appear in the vicinity of the Azure Flame World!
The next second, a heavy cough rang in his ears.
The feeling of sensing the Azure Flame World disappeared suddenly as he turned his attention back to where he was. He discovered that the True Immortals who were nearby earlier had already distanced themselves from him. It was especially obvious when Kou Chongxue, who had been beside him, was no longer there.
Shang Xia turned to stare at Kou Chongxue with a raised eyebrow as he recognized the cough earlier.
Kou Chongxue revealed an awkward smile as he chided Shang Xia softly, “You shouldn’t draw on the power of the world for fun… It looks like you’re provoking experts of the same level…”
“Oh.” Shang Xia gasped before cupping his fists towards those present. “Fellow seniors, I apologize for my behavior. I haven’t been able to familiarize myself with the power of the world…”
Shang Xia felt that the others were avoiding him because of the misunderstanding that he was challenging them, but he was sorely mistaken. They were actually forced away when Shang Xia drew on the power of the world! Even Kou Chongxue was no exception!
