Splitting the Heavens

Chapter 1107: Avengers

Chapter 1107: Avengers

When Yun Hu was still grumbling about how the experts of the Spirit Luxuriant World hadn’t joined the battle, Shang Xia and Kou Chongxue had actually been rushing over the entire time.

According to the discussion between them and the clones of the Elysium True Immortals of the Spirit Luxuriant World, the best time to join the battle would be after both sides suffered heavy damage. When that happened, their Spirit Luxuriant World would be able to reap the benefits.

If they stuck to the plan, the 4 Free True Immortals of the Spirit Luxuriant World needed ample preparation. It would be best for them to wait for the Star Ship fleet to gather around the Star Beast Nest before heading over together to immediately reap the spoils of battle.

However, Shang Xia and Kou Chongxue decided against it. Eventually, they chose to head over to the Spirit Faith World first. They would play by ear after observing the situation over there.

Such a massive operation where they took part in the conflict of another world rested heavily on the shoulders of Shang Xia and Kou Chongxue. In the eyes of the experts of the other factions, it was bad enough that they were from the same faction!

Those two fuckers even have a master-disciple relationship!

Everyone couldn’t help but think that they already cooked up some plan and had their own schemes against the Spirit Faith World.

Outside the Star Beast Nest, Huang Jinghan and Lu Wuzi stood alongside the clones of the Elysium True Immortals. They could only watch as Shang Xia and Kou Chongxue left. The task of leading and protecting the fleet naturally fell on Huang Jinghan and Lu Wuzi...

Even though the 4 clones could protect the Star Beast Nest to a certain degree, they couldn’t venture over to the Spirit Faith World which was more than a million miles away.

Li Jidao’s clone turned to look at Zhang Xuansheng and asked, “Your Northern Sea Mystic Sect has always been standing at the peak of our world. You have strong foundations and overwhelming strength... Do you have any disciples who have the potential to become a True Immortal?”

Everyone present didn’t think that Li Jidao would be so direct. Even Zhang Xuansheng’s clone was stunned for a second and he only responded after some time, “We have 2 or 3 disciples in the fourth element of the Martial Dipper Realm. However... Whether or not they have the potential to break through in the future depends on themselves...”

As soon as he spoke, everyone turned in unison to stare at Lu Wuzi.

Lu Wuzi snorted softly, but he didn’t say anymore. He didn’t wish to lower himself to the point where he started a fight with a mere clone.

It hadn’t been too long since Liu Jingsheng mastered the secret art of splitting off a clone, and he could finally take part in the operation with the others. He couldn’t help but sigh, “How strong must the foundations of the Northern Sea Mystic Sect be to still have disciples with the potential to enter the Martial Void Realm after already producing 2 True Immortals? My Yuanchen Sect should be ashamed of ourselves. The only promising disciple we have left is Pang Jingyun, but that little brat barely refined his fourth fate dipper. Due to the lack of suitable Origin Dippers, he can’t advance any further for now.”

Then again, the Northern Sea Mystic Sect’s position as the strongest faction in the Spirit Luxuriant World wasn’t false. In fact, their position was unassailable! With Zhang Xuansheng and Zhang Jianzi taking charge of the Elysium, one couldn’t forget that Lu Wuzi was also a promising expert that had been nurtured by them!

If they stuck together, the Northern Sea Mystic Sect would possess 3 True Immortals! There were also rumors about another True Immortal being born in the Northern Sea Mystic Sect, but they had their Void Origin devoured by Zhang Xuansheng and they disappeared. That was also the main reason Lu Wuzi escaped to create a sect of his own.

If the rumors were true, the Northern Sea Mystic Sect would have produced 4 True Immortals! No one would even come close to them with their position stuck firmly in the top of the Spirit Luxuriant World.

As soon as Liu Jingsheng’s clone spoke, Li Jidao’s clone immediately retorted, “True Immortal Liu, that’s not very accurate. Don’t forget, your Yuanchen Sect has Huang Jinghan, a Free True Immortal. As martial brothers, the both of you can work together to deal with problems both outside and within our world. Why aren’t you content? Look at me and Brother Yang... The both of us are lonely Elysium True Immortals. Even if anything happens, we can only stay behind and protect our territory.”

Yang Taihe’s clone also added, “My Eternal Palace has 2 disciples who reached the fourth element of the Martial Dipper Realm. Not to mention how strong they are right now, their foundations are far from Yifeng back then...” He couldn’t help but shake his head while giving a bitter chuckle, “I didn’t even get them to cultivate in the Eternal Palace. Instead, I got them to take part in the operation against the Spirit Faith World. I hope they are able to temper themselves through battle and they can only rely on themselves if they wish to break through to the Martial Void Realm in the future.”

Li Jidao sighed, “Brother Yang, you are really willing to go so far... Then again, in order to enter the Martial Void Realm, one’s foundations are important, but luck is definitely a factor! Be it Jiu Du or Yifeng... Both of them were a little unlucky back then!”

Yang Taihe’s clone couldn’t help but wonder, “Brother Li, didn’t you send the experts of your sect over to take part in this?”

“I didn’t force them to. I allowed them to make their own decision, and in the end, only 1 chose to come.” Li Jidao’s clone replied.

Lu Wuzi snorted to himself when he heard their conversations. Heh, damn old man. If he was willing to give himself up back then, his disciple would have broken through to the Marital Void Realm...

With the current situation in the Spirit Luxuriant World, other than the Tongyou Elysium that didn’t have an Elysium True Immortal, the others already birthed their own. That was also with the exception of the Northern Sea Mystic Sect, that had been modified by Zhang Xuansheng using some sort of secret method that allowed him to produce another Elysium True Immortal.

However, it wasn’t as though Zhang Xuansheng didn’t pay any price to allow the birth of another Elysium True Immortal. Zhang Xuansheng’s foundations were far more solid than Yang Taihe, and he was way more qualified to break through. However, due to Zhang Jianzi’s ascension, he was stuck at the peak of the second tier!

That was also why Zhang Xuansheng would be so enthusiastic when taking part in the operation targeting the Spirit Faith World.

Liu Jingsheng’s clone suddenly turned to Lu Wuzi to ask, “True Immortal Lu, does your Ice Essence Sect possess any promising disciples?”

Lu Wuzi was shocked to be included in their discussion and he quickly forced a chuckle, “It’s not like all of you don’t know the situation in my sect. We barely established ourselves... How are we supposed to produce promising disciples like all of you?”

Even though Lu Wuzi managed to draw over a bunch of high-level experts to establish his Ice Essence Sect, allowing it to immediately possess formidable strength, it couldn’t be denied that it hadn’t been long since they found their footing. Moreover, due to his betrayal of the Northern Sea Mystic Sect, the many powers in the Spirit Luxuriant World maintained some sort of hostility towards him.

Be it Lu Wuzi’s position among the True Immortals of the Spirit Luxuriant World, or the Ice Essence Sect among the sects... They were all slightly ostracized.

Only Kou Chongxue and Shang Xia maintained better relations with Lu Wuzi, and the Tongyou Institution also kept a friendlier attitude with the Ice Essence Sect.

Liu Jingsheng’s sudden question earlier seemed to show signs of friendliness, and it caught Lu Wuzi off guard.

Even though it was just a clone, one couldn’t forget that there was still Huang Jinghan from the Yuanchen Sect present.

Liu Jingsheng’s question seemed to be a signal as Yang Taihe’s clone also continued to ask, “True Immortal Lu, you have always been closer to the Tongyou Institution. I wonder if you know if Patriarch Kou has any more promising disciples or if anyone would be taking charge of the Tongyou Elysium soon?”

Motherf...

Lu Wuzi instantly understood that they were most likely acting friendly to him because they wanted to pry out details of the Tongyou Institution. After all, the True Immortals of the Tongyou Institution had already left.

After thinking about it, he realized that what he knew wasn’t much of a secret anyway, and after arranging his thoughts, the image of the female cultivator who killed Han Mo back then appeared in his mind.

“Other than the 4 great clans of the You Continent, Liu Qinglan, the most promising first batch disciple they cultivated suffered grave injuries and she no longer has the ability to advance further. The Martial Dipper Realm should be her limit. There seems to be someone called Ge Qingzhu who has a bit of potential. Actually, the true elites of the Tongyou Institution came from their second batch of disciples. Let’s not talk about the freak that is True Immortal Little Shang... There’s another female cultivator called Sun Haiwei, and she has been a rising star in recent years. She is already at the third element of the Martial Dipper Realm and it’s said that she was once True Immortal Little Shang’s teacher for some time. She can be considered to be half his master...”

“As for True Immortal Little Shang... I am in no position to evaluate him. Moreover, it’s said that he is already a rank six Talisman Grandmaster!” Lu Wuzi concluded.

Yang Tiahe’s clone shook his head and chuckled while revealing a complicated expression on his face.

Huang Jinghan, who usually didn’t speak up in discussions between True Immortals, asked suddenly, “Are we forgetting about their rank six Formation Grandmaster? She’s the one wielding their Formation Divine Artifact! It’s said that she also has a very close relationship with True Immortal Little Shang!”

Zhang Xuansheng’s clone sighed, “It might not be crazily impressive for a sect to produce 2 geniuses, but it’s an amazing feat for there to be a genius who not only grows stronger alone but brings up others around him. It’s truly a scary feat for those around him to also be geniuses... It’s exactly like Kou Chongxue back then! If those deputy patriarchs didn’t receive so much support from him, it would be fortunate if they entered the Martial Extermination Realm back then! Now, almost all of them are in the Martial Dipper Realm. Right now, True Immortal Little Shang is achieving the same feat. However, the foundation has already been laid down by Patriarch Kou and those around him are a lot better than Ji Wenlong and the others...”

Everyone nodded slowly, and even Lu Wuzi had to agree.

As they conversed, the Star Ship fleet of the Spirit Luxuriant World was fully assembled.

Compared to their conquest of the Azure Flame World, the fleet looked a lot more uniform than before.

Even though the number of Star Ships they had didn’t increase by too much, the quality was a lot better than before.

That wasn’t all. Even the experts of the Spirit Luxuriant World seemed to be much more orderly.

Every single Star Ship ferried several Martial Dipper Realm experts, and there was a set number of those with different numbers of fate dippers refined. There were also a standard number of experts in the different layers of the Martial Extermination Realm. A system had already been established.

The moment those Star Ships entered the battle, the experts on different ships would be able to work together in case anything happened. Whatever it was, they were a lot stronger than the haphazard way they attacked the Azure Flame World of the past.

Ensuring that their fleet had arrived, Huang Jinghan and Lu Wuzi took up positions at the front and back of the fleet respectively as they started to make their way over to the Spirit Faith World.

Around the same time they moved out, Lan Zhengfeng finally saw the glow of the heavenly screen in the distance...
