Splitting the Heavens - Chapter 1121: 10,000 Miles, Peak of Second Tier
In order to stop the powerful strike that came from the sea of void, Shang Xia shattered the landmass they brought back from the Spirit Faith World when using it as a springboard for his launch.
The shattered landmass was instantly attracted to the Spirit Luxuriant World, and they quickly fell through the heavenly screen.
At the same time, the flame that struck Shang Xia’s Stone Rod continued to eat away at his inner qi.
Even someone like Shang Xia, who had an extremely powerful foundation, wouldn’t be able to last too long with such consumption.
However, he didn’t feel pressured at all. Instead, he heaved a sigh of relief.
That was because he actually managed to block the strike!
With the efforts of every True Immortal of the Spirit Luxuriant World with the exception of Huang Jinghan, Shang Xia finally stopped the flame in mid air!
The intense flame continued to burn away his inner qi, but he understood that he couldn’t back down the slightest inch!
Even though the flame was a lot weaker than before, if he allowed it to pass, it would quickly burn the shattered pieces of land to nothingness. It might even pass through the heavenly screen and cause a disaster on the Spirit Luxuriant World.
Also, it was fortunate they received the attack outside the Spirit Luxuriant World.
The power of the world contained in the You Continent was used by Shang Xia to its limit as it turned into the final resistance against the remnant flame.
The strange power was even able to enter the You Continent to burn away any trace of winter!
Eventually, Shang Xia got rid of all the remnant energy contained in it with all the power contained in the You Continent.
With the disappearance of the flame, nothing else stood wherever it passed. It was as though it burned everything to nothingness.
Shang Xia slowly loosened his grip on his Stone Rod, and he discovered faint smoke rising from his palms. The stench of burned flesh soon entered his nostrils.
His palms were actually completely burned from holding the weapon!
With the strong vitality of a Martial Void Realm True Immortal, they would be able to instantly recover even if they burned their palm completely. The physique of a True Immortal was monstrous, Shang Xia being even more so compared to experts of the same level. For his palms to still be burned… It only indicated how strong the flame was!
One had to know that every single True Immortal of the Spirit Luxuriant World worked together to stop it earlier. They drew on the power of their Elysiums and only weakened it along the way.
If they failed to react in time and didn’t do anything to the flame that arrived, Shang Xia’s Holy Artifact would probably turn to ash the instant it was struck!
Who could it be?! What existence had the ability to send out a powerful attack like that? Why would someone be plotting against the Spirit Luxuriant World?
With Shang Xia’s back completely drenched in sweat, he used up all his energy and failed to maintain his composure above the heavenly screen.
Kou Chongxue rushed to grab him and just as Shang Xia was about to say something, Kou Chongxue muttered, “We’ll talk about it after we return.”
Before they descended past the heavenly screen, Shang Xia turned to stare into the void. He saw that the defense system that was made up of the asteroid belt and other landmasses had a giant hole bore through them.
Fortunately, due to Shang Xia’s efforts, the spatial gate remained intact as dozens of Star Ships poured out from within.
“Looks like we didn’t lose too much…” Shang Xia mumbled to himself before they entered the Spirit Luxuriant World.
The heaven and earth qi that blasted against him when he returned to the world invigorated him. His exhausted inner qi started to recover as and his incomplete Six Harmony Secret Art started to circulate slowly.
Kou Chongxue brought him back to the You Continent immediately. It was where Shang Xia advanced into a True Immortal and the moment he returned, he would receive assistance from the world itself.
However, Shang Xia also noticed that even though he shattered the landmass before sending it shooting into the Spirit Luxuriant World, they were quickly intercepted and slowed by many Martial Dipper Realm experts who remained behind to protect their world. However, there were still quite a few of them that fell into the ocean, causing a certain extent of damage.
That was actually the best everything could have turned out.
The strange strike that came from god knew where was clearly there for the 4 continents, and the moment it struck, everything would be turned to ash.
Fortunately, the Spirit Luxuriant World managed to maintain a good portion of world essence it contained, and the mortals or cultivators living on those continents were mostly preserved.
After Shang Xia entered the Tongyou Institution, he finally regained some energy. At the very least, he wouldn’t embarrass himself. Bringing Shang Xia back into the Spirit Luxuriant World, Kou Chongxue then took his leave.
The continents might have entered the Spirit Luxuriant World, but they still needed to split the world essence according to their contributions.
More importantly, everyone wondered where the strange strike came from! They needed to get to the bottom of the matter as quickly as possible!
Even after exhausting a great deal of their energy to stop the attack, they didn’t even know who their attacker was!
If they were unable to answer that very simple question, the True Immortals of the Spirit Luxuriant World would feel afraid to emerge from the heavenly screen in the future…
…
Shang Xia didn’t know what Kou Chongxue and the others discussed as he returned to the Tongyou Elysium to recover the moment he went back.
Even while in seclusion, Shang Xia clearly felt the foundations of the You Continent growing stronger. The continent also started to expand, and it eventually crossed the 10,000 miles mark.
Of course, what Shaang Xia could feel wasn’t just the expansion of the You Continent. He could also discover the changes to the world beside it.
With the exception of the expansion of land, the density of world origin the You Continent started to rise and so did the density of heaven and earth qi.
Be it the size of the continent, the density of world origin, or heaven and earth qi, nothing was more important than the blessing of the world. The moment the continent crossed the 10,000 miles mark, the blessing of the world descended on Shang Xia.
He could feel his foundations growing stronger, and it even seemed to reach a state of perfection in the second tier. He felt that he might even be able to take the final step and reach the level of External Fusion to become a rank three True Immortal!
