Splitting the Heavens - Chapter 1267: Grand Completion?!
Shang Xia’s Void Seal was a tyrannical move, but using it in a battle consisting of more than 10 True Immortals was pushing it. Even if many of them weren’t high-level True Immortals, he was only able to stop them for a moment.
Also… Because it was a technique that sealed an entire area, Shang Xia couldn’t separate the effects of his Void Seal from friend and foe. Everyone experienced it regardless of which side they were on!
That was also why the True Immortals of the Spirit Tinkle World, Spirit Thistle World, and Kou Chongxue couldn’t take the opportunity to kill a few opponents. In fact, they couldn’t even cause heavy injuries!
With Shang Xia making such a massive move, everyone’s attention was drawn over. The moment he unleashed Void Seal, the high-level True Immortals of the other side also acted. By the time the True Immortals struggled free from his Void Seal, most of its power had dissipated.
With a single move, Shang Xia saved their target and turned the situation around!
The True Immortals on his side reacted quickly and everyone on their side regrouped before their enemies could react. With the heavenly screen behind them, they managed to face off the enemies of the other alliance.
Since Shang Xia revealed his strength, the Spirit Tinkle World, Spirit Thistle World, and Spirit Luxuriant World’s defensive alliance was made up of 4 fourth tier True Immortals!
The sudden change in situation caused the offensive alliance to realize that they might not be able to defeat the Spirit Tinkle World if they didn’t receive more assistance!
That was something they couldn’t get as more than a dozen True Immortals on their side were held down by the Seven Stars Seven Tribulation Formation of the Star Origin Guards. They didn’t dare to make rash moves in case everything came crumbling down.
Everything returned to a stalemate, and they would only cause unnecessary losses if they continued to fight.
It also went without saying that the True Immortals of both sides weren’t stupid. The Spirit Tinkle World had lost the most, and their hatred for the Spirit Mammoth World and Spirit Abundance World should have reached its peak. Even so… They didn’t dare to launch an offensive against those monstrously powerful worlds in their current state.
With the fight above the heavenly screen coming to an end, only those far away from the Spirit Tinkle World were still battling.
The Star Origin Guards who had deployed the Seven Stars Seven Tribulation Formation started to make their way to the Spirit Tinkle World’s heavenly screen. The True Immortals of the attacking alliance didn’t dare to stop them and quickly made a path.
Even though they moved to the side, they still glared at the True Immortals of the Star Origin Dao Field with cold gazes.
Very quickly, the True Immortals of the Star Origin Dao Field managed to approach the heavenly screen. Instead of entering the world, they maintained a safe distance which still allowed them to react appropriately in case anything happened.
Just like that, all 3 sides were stuck in a stalemate outside the heavenly screen and no one took the initiative to start the fight.
The standoff between the True Immortals outside the heavenly screen was quickly noticed by those fighting off in the distance, and they quickly disengaged and flew into the depths of space.
Ensuring that no one would make a sudden move, everyone’s attention eventually turned to the continents that had been revealed by the massive gap in the heavenly screen.
Because of the urgent situation back then, the True Immortals of the Spirit Tinkle World had no choice but to separate those continents from the others while making them into a giant trap for any True Immortal stupid enough to rush straight into their world. However, because they did it so haphazardly, they hadn’t been able to separate the World Origin Source that was connected to the various continents.
From a certain point of view, those continents had basically been abandoned by the Spirit Tinkle World.
All 3 sides looked to be in a massive standoff, but the continents that had already been exposed were in complete chaos at the moment.
With the situation somewhat stabilized, the True Immortals of the Spirit Tinkle World quickly returned to their world and started to retrieve the world origin that had been leaking due to the destroyed connections.
It didn’t take long before Shang Xia noticed the ugly expressions on the faces of the True Immortals of the Spirit Tinkle World who attempted to retrieve their world origin.
He wasn’t the only one who discovered the anomaly. The high-level True Immortals of the Spirit Thistle World also noticed the change.
True Immortal Ban, the high-level Elysium True Immortal of the Spirit Tinkle World, spoke suddenly, “Someone is stealing the world origin of the 6 continents!”
The True Immortals of the Spirit Thistle World and Spirit Luxuriant World seemed indifferent. Anyone would be tempted by the world origin that was no longer contained by the heavenly screen…
True Immortal Ban’s voice rang in everyone’s mind again, “The person stealing world origin is no ordinary expert! I can’t stop him!”
If a high-level Elysium True Immortal couldn’t stop whoever was stealing world origin, it was a big problem indeed…
One had to know that True Immortal Ban had the home ground advantage. Even when facing a fifth tier True Immortal of other worlds, he would be able to hold his ground.
However… An existence like that was unable to stop the outflow of world origin… How terrifying would their cultivation have to be to achieve something like that?
True Immortal Zuo Li growled, “Are they the True Immortals of the Star Origin Dao Field, Spirit Abundance World, or Spirit Mammoth World?”
True Immortal Ban shook his head while maintaining his solemn expression, “They shouldn’t be capable of something like that. At the very least, those who came wouldn’t… None of the fifth tier True Immortals who came have the ability to do so…”
True Immortal Qu Guan frowned. “Who could it be then?! Could there be more hidden experts from the Spirit Abundance World and Spirit Mammoth World?”
Even he didn’t believe what he was saying at the moment. If the Spirit Abundance World or Spirit Mammoth World had more experts, they wouldn’t be stuck in the stalemate at the moment.
The next second, Shang Xia thought of something and inspected his Crimson Soul Tablet. As it turned out, he could tell that he would be able to absorb world origin if he just nudged the tablet slightly. He wanted to interfere but could feel that if he tried to do anything, he might disrupt the flow of energy. If that happened and they discovered he was behind the disappearing world origin, he would be in trouble. Moreover, the tablet didn’t seem too interested in the world origin of the Spirit Tinkle World.
True Immortal Ban suddenly asked, “Fellow True Immortals, please help to see if you can find the source of our leakage…”
In order to prevent themselves from being suspected, Shang Xia and the high-level True Immortals of the Spirit Thistle World didn’t personally come into contact with the world origin earlier.
Now that they received the invitation, they were no longer held back by anything. Shang Xia also no longer cared as he expanded his divine sense into the Spirit Tinkle World. As streams of world origin entered his Crimson Soul Tablet, he tried to look for a connection to the World Origin Source and the reason behind its leakage.
The actions of the True Immortals on the side of the Spirit Tinkle World immediately caught the attention of the other 2 sides. The True Immortals of the attacking worlds, which consisted of close to 20 of them, immediately prepared for battle, and the True Immortals of the Star Origin Dao Field maintained their battle formation. They started to move around the gap in the heavenly screen while looking at the continents that had lost all protection.
It was then that Shang Xia recalled something he heard from Dou Jie about the Star Origin Lord Manor. He asked, “Where’s the spatial tunnel that connects the Spirit Tinkle World to the Star Origin Dao Field?!”
True Immortal Ban was shocked and the others who were also sharper knew what Shang Xia was driving at.
True Immortal Ban immediately pointed in a certain direction and said, “The spatial tunnel is extremely far. The world origin that scattered shouldn’t be able to reach it, right?”
However… For the Spirit Luxuriant World who only ascended several years ago to know that the Star Origin Dao Field had been stealing world origin from the various worlds connected to it… How could the other worlds not know?!
Why else would they have established the spatial tunnel so far away?
The high-level True Immortals of the Spirit Thistle World also looked at Shang Xia in confusion.
Shang Xia muttered in a cold voice, “What if a sixth tier True Immortal made a move?”
“Sixth tier?!”
The other high-level True Immortals sucked in a cold breath.
True Immortal Ban asked anxiously, “True Immortal Shang, are you sure there is a sixth tier True Immortal in the Star Origin Dao Field?”
The high-level True Immortals of the Spirit Thistle World also started at Shang Xia as their expressions fluctuated slightly.
Shang Xia of what he learned while making his way over to the Spirit Tinkle World with Dou Jie and revealed the existence of Zhuo Gudao, the third Star Origin Guards Commander!
That was when another problem arose in their minds. If Shang Xia was right and there was a former Star Origin Guards Commander who lived for close to 500 years hiding in the Star Origin Dao Field… And if he even reached the sixth tier of the Martial Void Realm… What were they doing absorbing so much world origin from the Spirit Tinkle World?!
A thought flashed through their minds, and it was a logical one. They thought that he was probably using it to ascend!
What they wanted to know was if Zhuo Gudao was trying to reach the grand completion stage of the Martial Void Realm, or if he was planning to attempt a breakthrough into the Seventh Order, the Martial Emptiness Realm!
If they’re really trying to steal the Spirit Tinkle World’s origin to make a breakthrough… Do we stop them or not?!
Shang Xia, Zuo Li, and Qu Guan stared at True Immortal Ban in unison.
True Immortal Ban didn’t know how to react, but it was clear he was experiencing an intense battle in his mind. Even as a high-level True Immortal, he was unable to make a decision…
