Splitting the Heavens - Chapter 1120: The Strike Across Space
Above the heavenly screen of the Spirit Luxuriant World, the True Immortals who had already gathered could hear the trace of fear in Yin Jingxu’s voice.
Yin Jingxu was already a True Immortal for real, and the Spirit Luxuriant World also had a third tier Elysium True Immortal! If Yang Taihe drew on the power of the world, he would be able to rival a fourth tier True Immortal. Why would Yin Jingxu be afraid?
The other True Immortals weren’t useless clowns either, but even though they were doubtful, they started to turn serious.
Yin Jingxu also arrived above the heavenly screen from the Star Observatory in the Jiao Continent, but the terrifying strike hadn’t arrived.
When the other True Immortals were starting to get suspicious, the fluctuations from the spatial gate started to grow even more intense as the continents got ready to return to the Spirit Luxuriant World.
As Yin Jingxu stared into the void, the frown on his face grew deeper and he started to panic. “No way… Their target is actually the continents we stole from the Spirit Faith World!”
The True Immortals who gathered looked at each other and even though they weren’t feeling what Yin Jingxu discovered, Yang Taihe growled eventually, “It’s better to believe him!”
“Alright, let’s get ready to take it on then!” Zhang Xuansheng grunted.
With the 2 of them making the decision, a powerful swell came from the direction of the Northern Sea Continent. The illusory phantom of the Northern Sea Elysium appeared above the heavenly screen as Zhang Xuansheng and Zhang Jianzi seemed suspended on it. The mighty swell seemed to be able to allow them to draw on its power at any moment.
At the same time, a majestic palace appeared in the east. Yang Taihe stepped into the palace and merged with it.
That was the difference between a second tier True Immortal and a third tier True Immortal. Yang Taihe could fully merge his Void Origin with his Elysium. It became an extension of himself! Zhang Xuansheng had to draw on the power of the Elysium with his Void Origin, and there was ultimately a tiny barrier from using it like the Northern Sea Elysium was an extension of himself.
With the strongest Elysium True Immortals of the Spirit Luxuriant World joining hands, both Elysiums seemed to undergo some sort of transformation. The transformation affected Yang Taihe, Zhang Xuansheng, and Zhang Jianzi. Their auras rose sharply.
It seemed to have something to do with a formation-like effect, but it also seemed related to the power of a combined art.
However, they weren’t done. The Xiangyang Elysium and Divine Capital Elysium also appeared above the heavenly screen as Liu Jingsheng and Li Jidao gathered their strength the same way and merged it with the rest.
It was then that Liu Jingsheng’s sigh rang in their ears, “It’s a shame the Tongyou Elysium remains empty… Otherwise, we will only grow stronger!”
Yin Jingxu thought of something after seeing the combined efforts of those around him and a powerful ray of starlight descended from the sea of stars. He also managed to fuse his power with the rest.
“I didn’t think that you could do this…”
“Let’s see who’s targeting us…”
…
The 4 continents of the Spirit Faith World were transported as one single landmass and in order to play it safe, Shang Xia took charge and personally controlled the landmass before they entered the spatial tunnel. At the same time, the Heavenly Supporting Jade Pillar that he had fully refined also further prevented any mishaps.
Behind the landmass, Kou Chongxue, Lu Wuzi, and the clones of the various True Immortals trailed closely behind. Huang Jinghan remained in the Star Beast Nest and continued to keep an eye on the worlds.
The Star Beast Nest was quite a distance away from the Spirit Luxuriant World, and even through spatial transfer, it would take some time for them to arrive.
As they got closer and closer to the other end of the spatial tunnel, Shang Xia felt a sense of unease growing in his heart.
The higher one’s cultivation, the stronger their soul would become. It would also grow a lot more sensitive to danger around them.
Shang Xia immediately sent a transmission to the Star Ships pulling the landmass before informing Kou Chongxue and the others. Both True Immortals and the clones immediately rushed into the landmass to meet with Shang Xia.
If not for the Heaven Supporting Jade Pillar, the landmass would probably shatter with the pressure of so many experts.
Fortunately, they weren’t too far from the end of the spatial tunnel. Shang Xia wasn’t the only one who felt uneasy. Even Kou Chongxue and Lu Wuzi felt a sense of danger arriving.
The next moment, the heavenly screen surrounding the landmass started to grow as they emerged from the spatial tunnel. In an instant, it became nearly a quarter the size of the heavenly screen covering the Spirit Luxuriant World.
At the same time, the void in the distance started to light up as a massive crack in space formed. A massive sun seemed to appear from the crack, blinding everyone present.
Even though Shang Xia and the rest were on the landmass protected by the remnant heavenly screen, they were nearly unable to open their eyes.
“Who is it? Who’s attacking us now?”
“It came from deep within the sea of stars, and it’s extremely far away!”
“Is it from a fourth tier True Immortal?”
“How can a fourth tier True Immortal possess such power?”
“Could it be a fifth tier, or maybe, it’s a sixth tier… Could it even be…”
When Shang Xia, Kou Chongxue, and the rest didn’t know how to react, Yang Taihe and the others who were already prepared, made their move!
6 True Immortals drew on the power of 4 Elysiums and a Star Observatory.
Powerful starlight essence started to rise as it was the first to clash against the giant sun that formed.
The powerful swell that came from the Northern Sea Elysium seemed to dry up from the heat of the sun as the majestic Eternal Palace turned to rubble. The Divine Capital Pagoda collapsed as the Xiangyang Elysium was razed to the ground. The twinkling stars that Yin Jingxu drew the power of starlight from started to dim.
The powerful sun was similarly weakened, but it wasn’t completely extinguished. Powerful streams of white flames tore through the void and destroyed everything in its path before crashing against the heavenly screen around the landmass of the Spirit Faith World.
The clones of the 4 Elysium True Immortals rushed up into the skies as they tried different methods to stop the strong flames.
However, even after exhausting everything they had, they failed to stop it. In the end, they turned into specks of light that flew back to their true bodies.
The heavenly screen was turned to dust instantly, but a powerful sword qi emerged. It tried to tear the flame apart, and Lu Wuzi didn’t care about the consumption of his energy as he used the opening made by Kou Chongxue’s sword to push his energy into the stream of flame.
It slowed a little, but that was all. It continued to fall into the land mass.
From the time the landmass emerged from the spatial tunnel to the time the sun-like attack appeared, to the time it arrived, barely two breaths of time had passed. However, to the True Immortals of the Spirit Luxuriant World, it felt like an eternity.
Even though they used everything they had to weaken it, Shang Xia still had a sneaking suspicion that the moment it crashed into the landmass, everything would be burned to nothingness!
At the critical moment, Shang Xia stomped his feet and leaped into the air while holding his Stone Rod. It smashed directly into the flame.
Cracks appeared where he stomped earlier and the landmass started to shatter before the chunks flew into the Spirit Luxuriant World.
Rumble… Thump…
When Shang Xia smashed the Stone Rod into the flame, he could feel his inner qi draining rapidly. Even though the Stone Rod was a medium between Shang Xia and the flame, his inner qi was burned away.
With Shang Xia clashing against the unknown attack, he drew on the power of the world contained in the You Continent. Even though it was the twelfth month in the Spirit Luxuriant World and the You Continent was experiencing deep winter, everything seemed to burn away at that very moment! Not a trace of ice was left and the powerful heat that arrived seemed to want to incinerate everything in its path!
