Chapter 1320: The True Strength of the Spirit Mammoth World and Spirit Abundance World

Chapter 1320: The True Strength of the Spirit Mammoth World and Spirit Abundance World

In the hall of the secret region above the heavenly screen of the Spirit Thistle World, the high-level True Immortals of the other worlds congratulated Shang Xia in unison.

The third tier True Immortals of the other words might not understand the implications of Shang Xia entering the level of Returning to the Origin and becoming a fifth tier True Immortal, and they didn’t understand why the high-level True Immortals of their worlds would act so respectfully, but they quickly got to their feet and bowed to show their respects.

The 5 high-level True Immortals of the Spirit Tinkle World and Spirit Thistle World understood that with Shang Xia’s advancement, their alliance truly had the confidence to resist the 2 great Spirit Worlds.

In the past, even if their alliance was thinking of obtaining some benefits during the operation to the Essence Ping World, they would have to go about it in a sneaky way. They would only be able to pick up the scraps. However, now that Shang Xia had broken through, they might really gain the qualifications to stand up to either of the great Spirit Worlds or the Star Origin Dao Field.

Shang Xia and Kou Chongxue had long since understood the implications of his breakthrough long before the meeting...

Seeing as everyone was bowing to him, Shang Xia quickly got to his feet to return the pleasantries. When everyone finally sat back down, he mumbled a little awkwardly, “I managed to get ahead slightly earlier because of my luck... I believe everyone here will be able to catch up soon, especially True Immortal Zuo Li. If I’m not mistaken, you have already touched on the level of Returning to the Origin and you should be able to take that final step soon...”

Zuo Li shook his head while chuckling bitterly, “True Immortal Shang, I hope you’re right. For people with cultivation at our level, we believe we should understand the situation we are in. Stepping into the next level is no longer just a matter of producing enough inner qi. Be it a state of enlightenment or a great opportunity, none of it can be missing. Even though I have reached the peak of the fourth tier, I do not know when I will be able to enter the fifth...”

The other high-level True Immortals also started discussing among themselves as they could relate to what Zuo Li just said. That was also why they were so envious of Shang Xia and showed him so much respect.

Seeing as the atmosphere was getting a little stifling, Shang Xia chuckled, “Everyone, this is a rare opportunity for us to meet in the Spirit Thistle World. I believe everyone here is an existence of great importance in your respective factions... Let’s not waste any more time and start discussing the operation to the Essence Ping World!”

With their cultivation, everyone’s state of mind was firm and even though they were surprised, all of them quickly snapped back to reality after Shang Xia’s reminder. Most of them broke into hoarse chuckles before turning their attention back to the item at hand.

True Immortal Qu Guan, who was supposed to be chairing the discussion, thought for a moment before kicking things off. “Alright, I guess I’ll get the ball rolling and talk about what I think we should do.”

“Since True Immortal Shang has successfully entered the level of Returning to the Origin and our alliance possesses a total of 4 other fourth tier Free True Immortals and 4 third tier Free True Immortals, we might not be stronger than the Star Origin Dao Field, but we can definitely contend against the other 2 great Spirit Worlds.” Qu Guan paused for a moment before he continued, “However... In order to contend with them, we can’t throw numbers and hope to gain an advantage. Everyone’s combat prowess and artifacts will play an important role. More importantly, we need a good battle formation and good trump cards. Picking the best time to take part in any conflict is also key, allowing us to get the highest chance of success...”

He turned serious the next moment before speaking again. “Other than our numbers and cultivation, we don’t seem to have an advantage over anything else. In fact... Even with the number of high-level True Immortals we have, we are barely comparable to the others. We need to think of a way to pull ahead...”

He turned to True Immortal Ban and asked suddenly, “I have no intention to offend you, but in the past, during your alliance with the Spirit Abundance World and Spirit Mammoth World, I wonder if you learned about the number of high-level True Immortals they have?”

True Immortal Ban nodded slightly. Actually, he didn’t need Qu Guan to ask the question as he would tell the rest anyway. “The Spirit Abundance World and Spirit Mammoth World have at least 25 True Immortals each, but definitely fewer than 30.”

The number he revealed caused everyone’s heart to sink.

After the War of the Spirit Tinkle World, the original 19 True Immortals they had was reduced to a mere 9. No matter how much support True Immortal Ban and the others gave, they only nurtured 3 more True Immortals. They even affected the other True Immortals’ growth because they pushed True Immortal Shao into the fourth tier.

Naturally... For them to raise so many True Immortals at once placed a huge strain on the World Origin Source.

As for the Spirit Thistle World, they had 16 True Immortals in total. Even though they had slightly fewer True Immortals than the Spirit Tinkle World, one had to know that the Spirit Tinkle World used to possess a fifth tier high-level True Immortal back then. The strongest among them was only at the fourth tier and they were considered much weaker because of that.

During the War of the Spirit Tinkle World, the Spirit Thistle World lost 2 True Immortals. However, with the benefits the 3 high-level True Immortals received, they continued to nurture experts. They might have 1 True Immortal less than the Spirit Tinkle World at its peak, but they were still the strongest at the moment.

Speaking of which, the Spirit Luxuriant World was the one who benefited the most. Not only did they gain 5 more True Immortals since the War of the Spirit Tinkle World, but the individual strength also rose sharply. For example, Shang Xia became a fifth tier True Immortal and Kou Chongxue reached the fourth tier. Yin Jingxu also became a second tier True Immortal...

The increase in the number of True Immortals in the Spirit Tinkle World, Spirit Thistle World, and Spirit Luxuriant World definitely surpassed the others, but in terms of high-level combat strength, they were sorely lacking.

True Immortal Ban continued, “From what I know, be it the Spirit Mammoth World or Spirit Abundance World, they have at least 2 fifth tier True Immortals. They also have more than 3 fourth tier True Immortals. Of course, I’m only referring to Free True Immortals here.”

Pausing slightly, he added, “That’s also before the war of my world. Now that several years have passed, I am not too sure about their combat strength...”

Everyone in the hall already knew about the matter regarding the Star Curtain and how it would crumble soon. Since they knew, there was no reason for the Spirit Mammoth World and Spirit Abundance World not to know about it since they had the longest history and were the closest to becoming an Essence World. They most definitely knew about the Heaven Observation Field and the Star Curtain.

That was also why they understood the importance of producing high-level True Immortals, not to mention the fact that the Star Origin Dao Field had Zhuo Gudao, an expert at the peak of the Martial Void Realm.

As such, no one was sure that there weren’t any brave souls in the Spirit Mammoth World or Spirit Abundance World who tried stepping into the level of Extreme Harmonization to reach the sixth tier of the Martial Void Realm.

Kou Chongxue asked suddenly, “We already know about the Star Origin Guards’ battle formation and Zhuo Gudao has some strange treasure that allows him to control Seventh Order energy... For the Spirit Mammoth World and Spirit Abundance World to also take part in the operation to the Essence Ping World, will that also mean that they also have the ability to control Seventh Order energy? What type of energy will they be able to control?”
