Splitting the Heavens - Chapter 1268: Grand Completion?! Pt.2

If Shang Xia’s deduction was correct… They didn’t know whether they should try to stop Zhuo Gudao from advancing!

Shang Xia and the high-level True Immortals of the Spirit Thistle World also remained silent at the moment, not giving him any useful input.

The Spirit Tinkle World was losing world origin and even though the Spirit Luxuriant World and Spirit Thistle World were standing by their side now, they clearly had no authority to make decisions on their behalf.

What was more… The decision they would make might impact a sixth tier True Immortal and breed massive enmity!

True Immortal Ban suddenly addressed the others in a hoarse voice, “If I plan to interrupt the process… Will you help me?”

True Immortal Ban might be asking the high-level True Immortals present, but he was clearly directing his question to their worlds. He wanted to know if the Spirit Luxuriant World and Spirit Thistle World would back him up when the time came.

The Spirit Tinkle World actually reached the level of a Spirit World before the Spirit Thistle World, and their 22 continents might not be as strong as the Spirit Abundance World or Spirit Mammoth World, but they were still stronger than the Spirit Thistle World. At the very least, 16 of their continents had already reached the grand completion stage and surpassed 10,000 miles in size.

If the world origin of 6 continents were plundered at once, their world would suffer huge damage. It might even be possible for them to regress into an Azure World.

From the perspective of the Spirit Tinkle World, they should most definitely stop their world origin from leaking.

Facing his question, Shang Xia, Zuo Li, and Qu Guan remained silent.

Eventually, True Immortal Ban forced a chuckle, “Alright, I understand.”

After he spoke, he cupped his fists towards the high-level True Immortals before disappearing from his position above the heavenly screen.

According to the information Shang Xia received from Duo Jie, the Spirit Tinkle World should possess 19 True Immortals. There should be 4 high-level True Immortals in the fourth tier and an expert in the fifth tier of the Martial Void Realm, True Immortal Zhu.

Now that the battle was over, there were only 9 True Immortals of the Spirit Tinkle World left. 6 of them were Elysium True Immortals like True Immortal Ban, and the others were made up of 2 second tier True Immortals and a first tier True Immortal.

In other words… The Spirit Tinkle World couldn’t even match up to the Spirit Luxuriant World!

Without mentioning the Spirit Luxuriant World for the time being, when the experts of the Spirit Thistle World saw what happened, they felt a sense of helplessness.

It was then that the True Immortals of the Spirit Thistle World and Spirit Luxuriant World who were closest to the Spirit Tinkle World discovered a sudden change. The world origin that was leaking from the gap in the heavenly screen was stopped by something before returning to their continents.

The 9 True Immortals of the Spirit Tinkle World were clearly unwilling to watch as their world origin was lost, and they decided to fight against the strange power that was drawing it away from the void.

Regardless of strength or experience, the 9 True Immortals of the Spirit Tinkle World couldn’t begin to compare to the former Star Origin Guards Commander. However, they had the assistance of their World’s Will and were able to forcefully retain a portion of their world origin.

While that was happening, Shang Xia noticed that the True Immortals of the Star Origin Dao Field were slowly making their way closer.

Without Shang Xia’s reminder, the True Immortals of the Spirit Thistle World also noticed what was happening.

The next second, the Seven Stars Seven Tribulation Formation dragged over the power of the stars and a powerful beam of starlight fell on the exposed continents.

The True Immortals of the Spirit Tinkle World immediately noticed that the parts of the World Origin Source that was connected to those continents was covered in a layer of starlight. Their attempts at recovering their world origin were reduced to a mere 20 percent.

While they were being hindered, the powerful force that was drawing world origin away increased with the assistance of the Seven Stars Seven Tribulation Formation.

When the True Immortals of the Star Origin Guards activated the Seven Stars Seven Tribulation Formation to draw over starlight from the void, True Immortals of the various worlds prepared to fight. However, they realized that the Seven Stars Seven Tribulation Formation wasn’t directed at anyone, but used to plunder world origin from the Spirit Tinkle World. Their taut nerves relaxed slightly.

It was then that True Immortal Ban’s clone reappeared above the heavenly screen. He nodded at Shang Xia and the rest before looking into the distance and yelled, “The 6 continents that have been exposed… You guys can do whatever you see fit with it!”

After he spoke, he cupped his hands at Shang Xia and the high-level True Immortals of the Spirit Thistle World before disappearing again.

Shang Xia frowned and looked at the others. “What do they mean?”

True Immortal Zuo Li sighed, “The 6 continents are definitely not enough for the Spirit Mammoth World and Spirit Abundance World to risk it all in another all-out battle. Moreover, these continents might concern the birth of a new True Immortal for our worlds…”

Before Zuo Li could finish, True Immortal Qu Guan continued, “Perhaps True Immortal Ban is betting on the fact that the Spirit Mammoth World and Spirit Abundance World won’t be willing to see a grand completion stage Martial Void Realm expert appearing in the Star Origin Dao Field and will even help to hold the Star Origin Guards back. Moreover, the Star Origin Lord might have really left and that would mean that Zhuo Gudao is trying to use this opportunity to grow stronger to serve as a deterrence against the various worlds…”

He didn’t need to continue as everyone else knew what he was driving at. The actions of the True Immortals of the Spirit Mammoth World and Spirit Abundance World also proved his point.

True Immortal Ban didn’t appear earlier just to show his respect to Shang Xia and the rest. He was merely giving the experts of the Spirit Mammoth World and Spirit Abundance World an opportunity to act.

With 2 powerful beams of light coming from the experts of the Spirit Abundance World and Spirit Mammoth World, 2 long tears formed in the beam of starlight created by the Seven Stars Seven Tribulation Formation. World origin poured out from it and was gathered by the True Immortals of the various worlds.

Naturally, no one planned to continue fighting an all-out battle. They restrained themselves greatly, but world origin and the continents of the Spirit Tinkle World were just too tempting. It concerned the birth of True Immortals!

Shang Xia and the high-level True Immortals of the Spirit Thistle World exchanged glances and knew what the other was thinking.

However… Shang Xia, Kou Chongxue, and Yin Jingxu were the only ones from the Spirit Luxuriant World, and they were clearly the weakest party present.

True Immortal Qu Guan hesitated for a moment before he muttered, “Should we… Continue to work together?”

Shang Xia smiled but rejected the offer. “Fellow True Immortals of the Spirit Thistle World, please do as you wish. Patriarch Kou, Palace Master Yin, and I shall think of something else.”

True Immortal Qu Guan was shocked, but he shot Shang Xia a profound gaze before bringing the True Immortals of the Spirit Thistle World away.

True Immortal Ban’s intention was to draw more experts into the battle, but it made sense for him to give those who helped them earlier a better chance. At the very least, the True Immortals of the Spirit Thistle World and Spirit Luxuriant World were a lot closer to the continents already.

Of course, distance wasn’t the main factor in how much they would gain. The main problem lay in whether or not they would be able to destroy the curtain of starlight that was created by the Seven Stars Seven Tribulation Formation.

That was why Qu Guan was so surprised by Shang Xia’s rejection to work together. After all, the Spirit Luxuriant World only had 3 True Immortals.

After the experts of the Spirit Thistle World moved far away, Yin Jingxu couldn’t hold back his curiosity. “Are we really able to break through the curtain of starlight ourselves?”

Looking at Kou Chongxue, Shang Xia chuckled, “Why don’t… Why don’t you give it a shot first?”

Kou Chongxue broke out into laughter, “Damn! You little shit… You’re definitely waiting for me to embarrass myself.”

Even though that was what he said, he raised his Hidden Frost Sword. Pointing it at the curtain of starlight, powerful sword qi rose and attracted the attention of many high-level True Immortals in the distance.

Kou Chongxue’s sword art might be simple, but every stroke contained the essence of the sword. He might not have reached the fourth tier of the Martial Void Realm, but he already had the ability to threaten one.

In the eyes of others, Kou Chongxue was an extremely promising candidate who could become a high-level True Immortal in the future!

With the bronze-colored sword qi tearing through the void, it landed on the curtain of starlight that was above the continents and tore a thin gap hundreds of feet across. However, starlight quickly gathered to seal up the tear.

Shang Xia, who had been waiting for the opportunity, made his move. His Stone Rod entered through the hole that had yet to recover due to Kou Chongxue’s strike. With the infusion of his energy, the gap failed to close.

Kou Chongxue wasn’t surprised by Shang Xia’s actions, and he turned to look at the dumbfounded Yin Jingxu and chuckled, “Alright… How much world origin we can retrieve is up to us!”

Yin Jingxu gulped and knew that his chance had arrived. The time needed for him to reach the second tier of the Martial Void Realm would be greatly shortened if he managed to absorb enough world origin.

When Yin Jingxu couldn’t wait to start absorbing world origin from the Spirit Tinkle World, Kou Chongxue had already extended his divine soul into the continents below along with his Hidden Frost Sword.

Surprisingly, Shang Xia took a completely different approach from Kou Chongxue and Yin Jingxu.

He only sent his divine soul into the continents below, and the moment he did, he could feel the presence of more than 30 other divine souls. Everyone was fighting with each other and even Shang Xia couldn’t make out the identities of the owners of those divine souls because of how chaotic it was.

Even so… Shang Xia felt a burst of joy. His divine soul quickly forced its way into the mess and made the situation worse.

He didn’t hesitate to activate the Crimson Soul Tablet at the same time, but he didn’t plan to just absorb world origin from the Spirit Tinkle World. Instead, he started to contend against the sixth tier True Immortal of the Star Origin Dao Field for control over the world origin that was being taken away!
