Splitting the Heavens - Chapter 1041: Third Tier True Immortal Yang Taihe

The 8th year of the Spirit Luxuriant Calendar passed quickly.

The essence of the Azure Flame World had been pretty much assimilated into the Spirit Luxuriant World and there weren’t any obvious signs of the Azure Flame World any longer.

Even though the foundations of the Spirit Luxuriant World experienced a large increase, the situation where several more Martial Void Realm True Immortals were born was nowhere to be seen. In fact, not even a single attempt was made!

Yifeng and Jiu Du tried to advance back then and failed, ending their lives in the process. The Spirit Luxuriant World didn’t have any other Martial Dipper Realm experts who could attempt a breakthrough after them! After all, they were far too lacking when it came to their accumulated strength.

Of course, there might not have been any attempts to break into the Martial Void Realm, but due to the blessing of the world, their collective strength increased by quite a bit.

From what Shang Xia learned, in the recent 2 years, the Tongyou Institution gained 3 more Martial Dipper Realm experts.

As the Spirit Luxuriant World increased their interactions with the other worlds, cultivation knowledge became even more widespread and the high-level experts of the various factions learned a lot more.

For example, they knew that if a world wanted to become an Azure World, they needed 9 continents at the very least and every continent would need to possess a certain level of strength.

That was the situation the Azure Origin World and Azure Spiritual World back then was in.

In the past, the Azure Origin World had 13 continents and the Azure Spiritual World had 11 continents. They surpassed the lowest requirements of an Azure World.

However, they were far from being able to become a Spirit World back then. The minimum requirement to become a Spirit World was to have 18 continents!

Of course… After the fusion, the Azure Ascension World possessed 24 continents, exceeding the requirements to become a Spirit World.

It was a shame that their foundations were too weak and with the Elysiums plundering the spirituality of other continents, the difference in strength between some continents was massive. They were unable to ascend…

Only after Kou Chongxue brought the experts of the Azure Ascension World to steal world origin from the Azure Flame World back then from the Southern Yanlin Continent did they manage to ascend!

After becoming a Spirit World, it became clear again that the foundations of many continents were far too weak.

According to the information Zhuge Xiang revealed, if a Spirit World wanted to ascend into an Essence World, it would need to possess 27 continents!

Even though the Spirit Luxuriant World had 24 continents due to the merger of the Azure Origin World and Azure Spiritual World, there was a massive difference between the strength of the various continents.

The You Continent was a great exception as it had been revived after the efforts Kou Chongxue and the Tongyou Institution put in for dozens of years!

The only thing the You Continent lacked at the moment was land mass. In terms of everything else, they would be placed at the top of the continents in the Spirit Luxuriant World.

As for other continents… There were several that weren’t just considered weak. They were actually far from what an ordinary Spirit World would consider a continent.

Of the original 5 Border Continents that suffered in the collision between the Azure Origin World and Azure Spiritual World, other than the You Continent that was flourishing, the Qing and Shu Continents managed to recover a little. The Bing and Liang Continents didn’t seem too much better than before.

From how things looked, becoming an Essence World was far out of their reach even though they had close to the required number of continents.

If they were to only compare themselves to other Spirit Worlds… The Spirit Luxuriant World would probably have reached the level of a peak-tier Spirit World.

Speaking about the strength of a continent… Shang Xia learned from Kou Chongxue that the Yong Continent which housed the Divine Capital Sect and the Eternal Palace, along with the Northern Sea Continent that had the Northern Sea Mystic Sect, possessed the strongest spirituality among the continents. It was because of the constant nurturing of the Elysiums and how they plundered the spirituality of other continents, but they managed to reach a new peak level of strength.

The Yuanchen Sect’s Jing Continent would probably come next.

That was because the Yuanchen Sect stole a portion of the Jiao Continent’s spirituality, and received the blessing of the Spirit Luxuriant World.

Compared to the other 2 continents that had the 3 old Elysiums, the Yuanchen Sect existed for a far shorter time…

As for You Continent…

After the construction of the Tongyou Elysium, in order to prevent anything from going wrong, Shang Xia and Kou Chongxue took turns staying in the Elysium for a period of time.

Shang Xia consolidated his foundations back then, and he actually gained the qualification to enter the second tier… However, he was in no rush to raise his cultivation level. Instead, he wanted to solidify his foundations to the best of his ability so that he could better control the power of the world contained in the You Continent.

After fusing the Elysium into the Tongyou Institution, Shang Xia managed to gain even more insights to his cultivation.

Already standing at the edge of the second tier, Shang Xia would be able to fuse his Void Origin into his domain and enter the level of Inner Fusion with a single push.

He had been trying to deduce the method to craft another talisman when he received an urgent transmission from Kou Chongxue from above the heavenly screen, asking him to rush over.

Realizing something, he appeared above the heavenly screen instantly. When he arrived, he discovered that Kou Chongxue wasn’t the only one present. The other True Immortals of the Spirit Luxuriant World had already arrived with the exception of Yang Taihe. Even the heavily injured Lu Wuzi who was treating his injuries had come.

Without Kou Chongxue’s reminder, Shang Xia knew what was happening. He felt the fluctuations the moment he arrived, and he knew that Yang Taihe was about to step into the third tier of the Martial Void Realm, the level of External Unity.

Back when Yifeng failed to break through, he sacrificed his Void Origin and allowed Yang Taihe to reach the peak of the second tier.

After 2 years of consolidation, Yang Taihe finally restored the energy he lost and successfully entered the third tier of the Martial Void Realm.

Since he just broke through, Yang Taihe needed to consolidate his foundations and he didn’t rush to the heavenly screen to meet up with the others.

They didn’t stay for long either. After seeing the fluctuations fade away, the other True Immortals quickly left.

However, Shang Xia was an exception. Before returning, he raised his head to look at the asteroid belt in the distance.

After experiencing the devastating attack from 12 True Immortals, the Spirit Luxuriant World had already gotten their experts to restore their defense system. They rebuilt whatever had been destroyed in the past and added several more layers.
