Splitting the Heavens - Chapter 1257: Bitch.
There were many specially built floating islands outside the Spirit Luxuriant World for Star Ships to dock.
The True Immortals of the Spirit Luxuriant World had already gathered, and they were helpless against the figure who appeared and could only submit under the terrifyingly strong pressure of a high-level True Immortal.
They had to cancel their plan to invade another Azure World.
Chang Kun, the other fourth tier True Immortal who came from the Star Origin Dao Field, was extremely satisfied with himself.
He felt that he basically suppressed the Spirit Luxuriant World alone and forced all 8 True Immortals back all by himself! He was able to stop the Star Ship fleet from leaving, making their plans go up in smoke and cause massive losses to the Spirit Luxuriant World in terms of resources used.
His actions probably dealt them a heavy blow psychologically as well…
He happily sent a transmission to Dou Jie to inform him about the success, and after receiving Dou Jie’s confirmation, he felt that since he had already offended the Spirit Luxuriant World, he might as well go all the way and crush their confidence.
Since the Spirit Luxuriant World only had 1 high-level True Immortal, who was also the youngest True Immortal with the greatest potential who might pose a threat to them in the future, he planned to teach Shang Xia a lesson and crush his dao heart!
Actually, his thinking wasn’t actually too far-fetched. He was an old expert in the Martial Void Realm and Shang Xia was a junior who merely entered the fourth tier of the Martial Void Realm. He felt that he also had Dou Jie beside him in case anything went wrong, and there was no way they would lose if they joined hands.
As such, he decided to make his move.
After learning where Dou Jie and Shang Xia were, he rushed over without concealing his presence. He charged at Shang Xia without concealing his malice and disdain towards the high-level True Immortal of the Spirit Luxuriant World.
Dou Jie didn’t think too much about it either despite being suppressed by Shang Xia during their first interaction. He wasn’t afraid as one’s divine soul didn’t represent the full extent of their abilities.
The only thing that made Dou Jie frown was that they had already completed their mission by stopping the Spirit Luxuriant World and there was no need to complicate things. He still planned to make peace with them by making some introductions before taking their leave.
Everything happened so quickly that the situation quickly spiraled out of his control.
Shang Xia, who was already pissed by the Star Origin Dao Field’s actions, released all his anger when he saw that they weren’t even willing to leave nicely.
Without even taking out his weapon, he wanted to thrash the other side so hard while also showing his disrespect towards the high-level True Immortal who had the guts to attack him. He welcomed Chang Kun with the third move of his Six Harmony Rod Technique, Void Emptiness!
He didn’t hold back either when he unleashed his attack.
The second he stabbed the rod created with his Six Direction Qi into the void, Dou Jie’s expression changed drastically.
As Chang Kun’s good friend and comrade, they had been cultivating in the Star Origin Lord Manor and had a good gauge of each other’s strength. The second Dou Jie felt the power of the strike, he knew that there was no way Chang Kun would be able to receive it.
Dou Jie knew that he couldn’t watch as his teammate suffered a loss at the hands of the high-level True Immortal of the Spirit Luxuriant World and he instinctively moved to assist by attacking Shang Xia.
However… The second he moved, a powerful burst of starlight appeared where Shang Xia stood and seemed to turn into a massive sun that came from nowhere. It blinded everyone present.
Even though Dou Jie lost his sense of sight, his divine soul firmly locked onto Shang Xia’s original position.
It was a shame… By the time he attacked, he heard a deep grunt from the other side. He couldn’t mistake the familiar voice for anyone else. It was his fellow comrade in arms, Chang Kun!
From the grunt that came, Dou Jie could tell that Chang Kun had been injured from that strike. He was actually injured by a single attack!
Terror ran through his mind as he poured even more inner qi into his attack that was directed at Shang Xia.
It was also at that moment that he discovered he had lost track of Shang Xia’s aura.
Oh no!
Dou Jie’s heart sank and he stopped his hand that was extended halfway. He released the remnant energy around him, causing spatial ripples to surround him, forming a layer of protection.
Anyone who tried to approach would immediately be discovered!
With the situation as messy and confusing as it was, he decided to protect himself before all else.
That was exactly Shang Xia’s intention.
If Dou Jie were to join in the battle suddenly, he would have to fight 2 high-level True Immortals of the Star Origin Dao Field. However, with Dou Jie focused on self-preservation, he would be able to take on the other True Immortal alone!
Shang Xia wasn’t afraid of the violent spatial storm that was kicked up when Void Emptiness struck Chang Kun. He released his domain and stabilized the void around him before rushing in the direction of the cocky asshole who tried to attack him instead of leaving the Spirit Luxuriant World.
While Chang Kun was still stunned from the injuries he sustained, Shang Xia quickly closed in.
Chang Kun was no inexperienced fool. He might have been stunned by Shang Xia’s sudden strike and overwhelming strength, and his confidence suffered a huge blow, but he was still an experienced fourth tier True Immortal. He didn’t panic in the crucial moment and he created a hand seal and pressed it into the space before him. It created a formless barrier that would serve as the first line of defense.
Like Dou Jie, Chang Kun managed to think of the best way to protect himself. At the same time, he also released his domain.
The next second, he felt someone forcing their way into his domain before ripping the formless barrier he created to shreds.
With a loud roar, Chang Kun sent a punch into the space in front of him and shattered the void. Everything around him seemed to be dragged towards his fist and it looked as though it had the power to crush anything in his way.
The next thing he knew, his fist came into contact with a Stone Rod.
Bang!
One had to say that his fist was as hard as steel and possessed considerable might.
It was a shame what he was up against was a Holy Artifact that had been infused with Shang Xia’s tyrannical Six Direction Qi.
After the loud blast, Chang Kun’s right arm was completely crushed. Became like a noodle that was flapping about helplessly as he quickly grabbed it with his left hand. Using everything he had, he retreated desperately.
Shang Xia casually kept his Stone Rod as he watched Chang Kun fleeing like a headless fly tens of miles away.
At the same time, Dou Jie, who realized he had been tricked, tore through the void as he quickly rushed in the direction of Shang Xia. As he made his way over, he prepared himself for a messy battle.
He saw Shang Xia staring at his comrade who was fleeing desperately and revealed a resentful expression. However, he quickly regained his composure and sighed helplessly. Getting rid of all the energy he had stored up, he also released his domain.
When he slowly drifted over to the space between Shang Xia and the fleeing Chang Kun, he cupped his fists towards Shang Xia. “True Immortal Shang, many thanks for showing mercy.”
Staring at Dou Jie with an expressionless face, Shang Xia muttered, “Your Star Origin Dao Field can take control of the overall situation with your overwhelming strength, but that doesn’t mean you can do whatever you please.”
“You…” Chang Kun’s enraged cry came from behind Dou Jie right after Shang Xia spoke.
Standing between Shang Xia and Chang Kun, Dou Jie’s tone was chilly as he growled, “True Immortal Shang, I will convey whatever you said to the Star Origin Dao Field. I won’t bother you anymore.”
