Splitting the Heavens - Chapter 1023: Action!

Would the Spirit Luxuriant World be willing to give away the rights to the ‘Heaven Observation Elysium’ in the Azure Flame World?

Without even mentioning if they understood what the significance of the Heaven Observation Elysium was… For them to be confident enough to swallow the Azure Flame World themselves, why would they give away what already belonged to them?!

Not to mention that the Spirit Luxuriant World had already barred her fangs and had already started their attack on the Azure Flame World.

Kou Chongxue and Shang Xia would also never give away the Elysium as they had to use it to establish one of their own.

Even though the spatial tunnel between the Three Unity Island and the Star Origin City had been temporarily closed off, they managed to send their request to the Spirit Luxuriant World through extreme methods. However, their requests were spectacularly ignored by Yang Taihe and the rest.

A little more than half a month passed, and the formations and restrictions around the Cangming Elysium had basically been wiped clean by Kou Chongxue and the clothes.

The Formations Grandmaster and Formation Masters who were protected by Yuan Cangming to maintain the formations around the Elysium were mostly killed or had already worn themselves out. There was only a Martial Dipper Realm Formation Grandmaster and 2 Martial Extermination Realm Formation Grandmasters who were saved by Yuan Cangming.

“The greatest use of the formations isn’t to stop us. They’re used to supplement Yuan Cangming’s strength!” Lu Wuzi concluded after feeling the spatial fluctuations in the surroundings. He might have discovered the entrance to the Cangming Elysium and he quickly spoke, “Fortunately, Yuan Cangming received heavy injuries in the first battle and his combat strength was severely affected. Otherwise, we wouldn’t have been able to clear this whole place out so quickly.”

Kou Chongxue held 2 high-grade essence crystals and pondered out loud, “I still feel uneasy… I’m afraid we’re still moving a little too slowly!”

Lu Wuzi was slightly taken aback and he mumbled, “Even if we hasten our progress, the flying ships from our world won’t be able to make it in time! Our foundations are just far too shallow…”

Shang Xia, who had been in a meditative state the entire time, opened his eyes suddenly. “We can hurry this up if we want. I am confident that my domain can crush the spatial barriers around the Elysium and force Yuan Cangming to show himself!”

Shang Xia shocked Kou Chongxue and Lu Wuzi with his sudden input.

With his eyelids jumping slightly, Kou Chongxue asked, “Does your domain possess the extermination property?”

“Extermination? Corrosion? Assimilation? Withering… I can’t say for sure.” Shang Xia replied after thinking about it for a moment.

Swallowing his saliva, Lu Wuzi muttered, “We’re not the key to this entire operation here. Our Spirit Luxuriant World lacks flying ships! Even if we add everything the Azure Flame World has, it won’t be enough!”

“Fine! We’ll just show our cards to the cultivators of this world! We’ll tell them that we’ll leave the Northern Chihuang Continent alone and chase everyone there! That way, we can wear down their determination to resist the invasion by giving them a way out!” Shang Xia grunted.

Staring at Shang Xia in shock, Lu Wuzi didn’t know what to say.

At the side, Kou Chongxue got to his feet suddenly. “Alright, let’s do that. We have to deal with Yuan Cangming as soon as possible! He’s the hope of the Azure Flame World and the moment he falls, we’ll be able to wear down their desire to fight by giving them a way out. I believe a lot of them will understand their situation.”

The moment the words left his lips, a powerful sword light emerged and entered the void in front of him.

The void started to fracture and a picturesque world was revealed. To be more exact, a portion of it appeared before Kou Chongxue and the rest.

However, the tears in space started to recover as quickly as they formed.

Shang Xia, who had been waiting for the moment, soared into the air and slammed his Stone Rod down at the gap.

Boom!

A dull blast came from the ground below, and everything in the surroundings was suppressed. The speed at which the gap in the spatial barrier was sealing up slowed to a crawl.

The weapon in Shang Xia’s hand was a Heaven Supporting Jade Pillar to begin with. It could not only be used to support and strengthen an Elysium. It also possessed the extraordinary ability to suppress and confine space.

Supporting the Elysium was one matter, but suppressing and confining space seemed to cause its functions to overlap with the Elysium Boundary Marker, but its abilities sure came in handy.

Shang Xia’s Void Domain went through the gap created by Kou Chongxue but faced a swift retaliation from Yuan Cangming’s domain.

Yuan Cangming was forced to retreat time and time again under the pressure of 3 True Immortals, but every time he backed off, he would be able to draw on more power of the world and the Elysium.

As he hid in the Cangming Elysium, there was nowhere left for him to go. However, the superimposition of the power of his Elysium and the world allowed him to reach the peak of his abilities!

Even if Shang Xia’s domain had the ability to slowly grind Yuan Cangming’s domain down, it failed to penetrate deep into the Cangming Elysium. It was forced to remain at the very edges!

Lu Wuzi made his move then. With Shang Xia paving the way, Lu Wuzi’s domain reached into the Cangming Elysium and caused massive storms. Its tyrannical might swept through the Elysium.

One had to say that after half a month of fighting together, the 3 of them had learned how to work well together.

Kou Chongxue was in charge of the frontal assault while Shang Xia stabilized the battlefield. Lu Wuzi would rush in at the end and create giant storms and natural disasters to blast everything away indiscriminately in order to get rid of all obstacles.

The only thing was that they had arrived at the Cangming Elysium. It was where Yuan Cangming held the greatest advantage and possessed strength far surpassing cultivators of the same level.

Lu Wuzi’s bombardment was quickly suppressed, and Shang Xia’s domain was forcefully expelled. Kou Chongxue didn’t have time to release his second strike when the spatial barrier closed.

“So… This is going to be a battle of attrition then?” Lu Wuzi looked at the others and wondered out loud.

“He’s definitely using up a lot of energy as well. In his current state, he’s at a massive disadvantage and his consumption will only increase. Moreover, the damage we cause to the Elysium will be extremely hard to restore.” Kou Chongxue explained while continuing to store his energy.

He was prepared to release his sword domain again.

However, Shang Xia’ said something else that stopped Kou Chongxue and Lu Wuzi for a moment.

“I need some time. I have a feeling I’ll be able to merge my domain with my Void Origin to make them the same entity!”

“Are you… Are you trying to become a second tier Martial Void Realm expert right now?” Lu Wuzi gasped in fright.

Kou Chongxue stared at Shang Xia with his jaws slightly agape. How long has it been since this kid entered the Martial Void Realm?!

After several years of being in the Martial Void Realm, Kou Chongxue communicated frequently with the other True Immortals and gained a better understanding of how to progress in the Martial Void Realm.

When one first stepped into the Martial Void Realm, their Void Origin would form. They would be able to draw on the power of the world and that was what they knew as their ‘domains’. Ordinarily, they would power their domains with their Void Origin.

However, when one managed to fully fuse their domains with their Void Origins, they would truly step into the second tier of the Martial Void Realm.

Shang Xia knew that they misunderstood his meaning and he hastily explained, “I mean… I need to strengthen my control over my domain. Only then will I be able to better wield it when fighting against Yuan Cangming. I will also be able to better coordinate with you guys…”

Kou Chongxue and Lu Wuzi couldn’t help but heave a sigh of relief silently. From what he was saying, he hadn’t reached the point where he could fuse his Void Origin with his domain. Rather, he was only strengthening his control over it. That would also mean he was a distance away from reaching the second tier.

Wait a second…

From what he’s saying, he seems to have already found a way forward. Strengthening his domain doesn’t seem too difficult for him either!

What the hell?!

The moment he familiarized himself with the use of his domain even further, wouldn’t that mean that he would be a step closer to fusing it with his Void Origin?

Lu Wuzi was truly letting his imagination run wild. However… It didn’t matter as the stronger Shang Xia became, the better it would be for them at the moment!

In the assault that took place in the following days, Shang Xia took the initiative to work on the coordination of their domains. As they became better and better at working together, both Kou Chongxue and Lu Wuzi understood one thing. Shang Xia was the key to their amazing teamwork!

Compared to their sole methods of using a sword domain or to control the weather, Shang Xia seemed to possess much greater means at his disposal!

As their attack continued, Shang Xia finally realized what the martial intents he comprehended at different levels could do.

With greater control over his domain, Shang Xia discovered that within Kou Chongxue’s sword domain, he could use his Seven Laceration Sword to assist the patriarch’s domain. There, it would be able to unleash the greatest impact. In Lu Wuzi’s natural phenomena domain, he could unleash his Chaos Essence Lightning Palm and imbue it into the flurry of storm and snow Lu Wuzi liked to control.

He would seamlessly connect his martial intents with their domains which also allowed them to burst forth with extraordinary power.

Following Kou Chongxue and Lu Wuzi’s continuous assault and cover, Shang Xia managed to push his domain deeper into the Cangming Elysium!

…

Another half a month passed and the 3 of them basically forced Yuan Cangming into a corner. They controlled half the Cangming Elysium, and Yuan Cangming had truly been forced into a corner.

Right before they could deal the killing blow, the youngest True Immortal among the 3 who looked the least eye-catching, stepped into the void and left.

Of course, with the Cangming Elysium in its current state, Yuan Cangming was unable to draw too much energy from it. Even with Kou Chongxue and Lu Wuzi, they were more than enough to suppress Yuan Cangming.

Naturally… Without Shang Xia, the pressure on Yuan Cangming was greatly alleviated.

There was only one question in Yuan Cangming’s mind at that moment. Where did the youngest True Immortal go?

Could the inheritance left behind in the Elysium be real?! Did the legendary Land of Star Origin really exist? Was the change he was holding out for finally arriving?!

…

Above the heavenly screen of the Spirit Luxuriant World…

The True Immortals of the 4 Elysiums gathered as 3 of them cupped their fists towards Liu Jingsheng. “Congratulations, True Immortal Liu. Your Yuanchen Sect managed to produce another True Immortal!”

Liu Jingsheng had a face full of smiles as he looked at the rest. “Many thanks! Junior Brother Huang had been preparing for some time now but he definitely relied on his luck during the final part of the breakthrough. No matter what, our world managed to produce another True Immortal and our collective strength increased once again…”

Yang Taihe smiled, “Is True Immortal Huang still consolidating his foundations?”

“It’s no time to enter seclusion now… He’s going to join the batch of experts to be transported to the Azure Flame World to prevent anything from going wrong.” Liu Jingsheng chuckled.

All of them nodded in unison.

Looking at everyone, the smile on Yang Taihe’s face didn’t fade. “Since that’s the case, let’s begin, shall we?”

As soon as he spoke, powerful mist rose from the heavenly screen. Flying ships of all types and sizes emerged and formed a giant fleet in the void above the Spirit Luxuriant World.
