Splitting the Heavens - Chapter 992: No One’s Gonna Catch Me Today
Who the hell had the guts to sneak attack the Moyun Sect in the gathering grounds of the Spirit Mammoth World?!
Clamor broke out among the experts in the gathering point. At least 8 Martial Dipper Realm experts rose into the air from various directions and stared at where the Moyun Sect was. However, not a single person moved to help them.
Catching them off guard, Shang Xia managed to scatter the inner qi of the second element Martial Dipper Realm expert who came to stop him earlier. Even though their dantian wasn’t completely crippled, they definitely needed several months to recover. Whatever it was, they wouldn’t be able to fight anytime soon.
The other expert who came to stop Shang Xia was at the third element of the Martial Dipper Realm. He was a lot more careful, but he wasn’t able to escape from Shang Xia’s wave of Five Element Dipper Qi. Fortunately, he didn’t hesitate to split off a Fate Dipper Clone at the last second before retreating from the sea of energy.
Shang Xia was too lazy to care about them. He didn’t even deal with the second element Martial Dipper Realm expert who lost his combat abilities. Instead, he rushed at the cave dwelling where Feng Fuzi was located.
Without turning his head, he yelled, “This is a grudge between the Moyun Sect and my Qingyun Sect! It has nothing to do with anyone else!”
Before entering the gathering point of the Spirit Mammoth World, Shang Xia learned a little about the powers of the Spirit Mammoth World. He understood that the Qingyun Sect was a large sect that was exterminated by the Moyun Sect 60 years ago. However, not everyone in the Qingyun Sect was slain and they had been accumulating their strength in the recent tens of years. They never gave up on their revenge against the Moyun Sect, but due to the Moyun Sect’s increased pressure on the survivors in recent years, they became a lot less active.
Of course, that couldn’t be a better chance for Shang Xia to fuck with them!
Indeed… With him yelling his ‘identity’, the experts who came to observe the battle scanned him once to learn that his aura was indeed from the Spirit Mammoth World before standing at the side to watch the show play out.
Shang Xia’s understanding of the Spirit Mammoth World wasn’t great and all he knew came from the casual conversations he had been hearing along the way. However, he believed that on a larger scale, there shouldn’t be many differences in their internal dynamics compared to other worlds. There should be many experts willing to watch the experts of an Elysium run into trouble.
Whatever it was, it would be impossible for the Qingyun Sect to ‘take revenge’ on the Moyun Sect. However, it would be great if they caused trouble and weakened the experts of the Moyun Sect.
Not to mention the fact that the Moyun Sect was in the wrong in the first place. They destroyed the Qingyun Sect and it was only reasonable that they suffered retaliation from the experts of the dead faction.
However… There were several powers who quickly moved away after witnessing what happened. After all, the expert from the Qingyun Sect who was screaming for revenge seemed somewhat powerful.
After injuring 2 Martial Dipper Realm experts of the Moyun Sect, he started a sudden assault on one of their cave dwellings. No one was able to stop him as he charred his way over and in a split second, the corpses of 2 Martial Extermination Realm experts from the Moyun Sect could be seen as they were too late to escape from the calamity that was Shang Xia! Another Martial Dipper Realm expert was crippled, and a fourth element Martial Dipper Realm expert of the Moyun Clan who came out to stop Shang Xia was forced away without injuries.
“This is getting interesting… I’m afraid the Moyun Sect is about to suffer a huge loss!”
“From the looks of it… Is that fellow going for Feng Fuzi?”
The number of Martial Dipper Realm experts in the area increased yet again. There were more than 10 of them at that point and they were watching the chaos unfold.
Silence fell when someone mentioned the name ‘Feng Fuzi’.
“The person didn’t make a second move against those he forced away… His target really seems to be Feng Fuzi!”
“What a joke! That fellow definitely thought that Feng Fuzi suffered some injuries in the battle in the West and came to take advantage of the situation… Heh, does he think the Moyun Sect is an easy target?”
There were some who expressed their disdain. Several days ago, Feng Fuzi brought several experts of the Moyun Sect back after an intense battle in the West. he brought back several precious treasures while he was at it. However, his injuries weren’t serious at all! He only expended some inner qi during the fight.
“Whatever it is, this is the best chance the Qingyun Sect is going to get.”
Someone else mumbled, “If Feng Fuzi is truly injured there’s no better time to attack. After all, everyone is out scouring the Azure Oddity World for treasures. We’re here because of our injuries or because we’re just too weak to take part in the battles going on. Even if he fails, he should be able to escape alive…”
After he spoke, he turned to look at everyone around before smiling, “Don’t you think we’re all too injured or exhausted to stop him if he tries to run?”
…
Shang Xia attacked too suddenly and he moved too quickly. No matter who came to stop him, Shang Xia didn’t waste time fighting them. He simply shoved them away!
The ‘Moyun Cave’ was his only target! To be more exact, his target was the owner of the Moyun Cave!
He had to be quick. He needed to deal with Feng Fuzi and obtain the treasure with the Spirituality of the West before escaping!
He wasn’t sure his disguise wouldn’t be seen through. After all, his aura disguise would only work when he wasn’t fighting! When he made his move earlier, he actually threw down several restrictions into the void to prevent the experts in the immediate surroundings from discovering his true aura.
The Moyun Sect was a faction that sent a True Immortal, and Feng Fuzi was an existence who had half a foot in the Martial Void Realm! He was definitely someone the Moyun Sect placed heavy emphasis on. Shang Xia didn’t doubt for a second that the moment he called for help, the True Immortal would rush back to assist him!
Speed was of the essence. He had to be so fast that no one had the time to react! Before the True Immortal returned, he would have to achieve his goal and escape!
The Moyun Cave was close, and dense clouds emerged from its depths. Layers of restrictions appeared at the entrance to stop Shang Xia.
Even though the Moyun Sect decided to set up camp in the gathering point of the Spirit Mammoth World, they didn’t exactly leave their camp wide open. How could they not have left any restrictions as a precaution?
Naturally, Shang Xia already expected as much. The moment the clouds emerged from the Moyun Cave, five colored light blossomed behind Shang Xia as they tore straight into the restrictions.
As the dense clouds were eaten away by the five colored light, the restrictions around the entrance lost their shine. It didn’t take long for them to be weakened.
Rather than wait for Shang Xia to launch another attack on the restrictions, they were destroyed from the inside as a crane created by dipper qi burst out from the cave and rushed aggressively at Shang Xia.
“Hah! Thanks for coming out!” Shang Xia rejoiced when he saw the crane. Forming a seal with his hands, his Five Element Dipper Qi enveloped the crane as lightning fell from the clear skies above. His Five Element Dipper Qi contained in the lightning bolt tore the crane apart.
As the crane dispersed in a wave of clouds, a figure rushed out and appeared a mere 300 feet from Shang Xia.
A formless wind ripped the space around him apart and swallowed Shang Xia. The shattered space seemed to be blown around by the tornado that formed as it tried to slice Shang Xia into pieces.
It was the first time Shang Xia was feeling his Five Element Dipper Qi Protection Barrier being eaten away by his opponent’s attack. Of course, the process was excruciatingly slow and Shang Xia stared as the other party tried to close in while attempting to suppress his Five Element Dipper Qi.
Is he… Is he overestimating himself?
Of course not. The other party just didn’t know how powerful he was! When the attack appeared, Shang Xia determined that the person who emerged from the crane was Feng Fuzi. He was confident enough to rush up to Shang Xia because he had confidence in his martial intent! Also, the only people who had the time to unleash their martial intent on him had to be someone special!
Ever since Shang Xia reached his current level, it was his first time meeting an expert in the Martial Dipper Realm who could fight back to such an extent. A sudden urge to win rose in his heart when he noticed Feng Fuzi’s extraordinary martial intent.
Amidst the tornado that contained spatial cracks, a speck of five colored light burst forth. It transformed into a giant ring before another one split off from it. Both rings started to spin in the air as they pushed back against the messy tornado around them.
That wasn’t just a clash of martial intents! It was a contest between their understanding of the dao!
When a Martial Dipper Realm expert comprehended their martial intent, they would have reached a new level along the path they were walking. Naturally, the stronger their martial intent was, the higher their achievements in the dao.
In the instant their martial intents clashed, every Martial Dipper Realm cultivator in the gathering point turned their attention over. There were even some who overlooked the fact that Shang Xia’s aura no longer belonged to someone from their Spirit Mammoth World!
As the five colored light increased in intensity, the power of Shang Xia’s Five Element Annihilation Yin Yang Ring grew. From pushing the tornado back, it started to suppress Feng Fuzi’s martial intent before crushing it completely!
The majestic Five Element Annihilation Yin Yang Ring destroyed the entire mountain along with his martial intent!
With his martial intent forcefully torn apart, Feng Fuzi suffered grave injuries. However, he definitely possessed enough strength to free himself.
The very instant his martial intent was destroyed, he discovered the intensity of the other party’s offensive faltering slightly.
Actually… The reason he wasn’t immediately killed was because Shang Xia didn’t plan on following up on the offensive. When he shattered the mountain earlier, he discovered the treasure he was looking for.
Once he grabbed it, there was no point in staying and risking facing a True Immortal. Turning around, the five colored light erased every single spatial crack 100 feet around him before a spatial gate was created.
In front of the experts of the Spirit Mammoth World, the mysterious expert who charged at the Moyun Sect alone placed a single foot into the spatial gate.
“Who the hell are you?! Tell us your name!” Feng Fuzi, who finally discovered something off, yelled. Even he knew it was too late to stop the other party from leaving.
Turning to shoot him a cold glance, the corner of Shang Xia’s lips curled upwards in a mocking sneer before he stepped into the spatial gate and disappeared from the gathering point.
Finally, someone who was watching the exchange yelled, “He doesn’t seem to be someone from our world, right?”
“Obviously! He’s not someone from the Azure Oddity World either! We’ve been had!”
