Splitting the Heavens

Chapter 314: Metamorphosis

Chapter 314: Metamorphosis

Outside the Tongyou City, a Martial Extermination Realm expert of the Rose Party disrupted the forced stalemate between the Martial Extermination Realm experts in the city.

After Liu Qinglan emerged from the city, the masked attacker launched another attack against the protection barrier around the Tongyou City.

There were more than one of them, but due to their desire to hide their identities, none of them dared to use their special moves. As a result, they used ordinary moves that didn’t contain too much power.

Regardless, Martial Extermination Realm experts were still Martial Extermination Realm experts. Despite them releasing weakened versions of simple attacks, the sheer number caused the protection barrier to tremble violently.

The experts in the city could only head out one by one in order to stop those masked attackers from causing more damage.

When Han Han Chongwei left his position to stop the attackers outside, he glared at Kang Ci and the others before giving a stern warning, “Don’t go overboard…”

Chang Huaiwu wasn’t willing to leave without saying anything either and he growled, “I’ll give you one more hour. I’ll hold them back for one hour, and the Tongyou Institution has to close the spatial tunnel connecting the You Continent to the battlefield between the two worlds.”

The warning they left behind caused those from the institution to reveal ugly expressions.

Wei Zhongwen chuckled at the side, “Well, you’re on your own. I'll stop one of them too.” After he spoke, a cocoon of light wrapped itself around him and he flew out of the city.

Kang Ci, Shang Ke, and Liu Zhiyuan could only bow slightly to show their respect for the various experts who were giving their assistance.

Wei Zhongwen, who had just left the city, roared suddenly, “City Lord of the Changfeng City, Yang Hu, I know it’s you! Who would have thought that as a native cultivator of the You Continent, you would join in the battle?”

A burst of light filled the skies as a deep rumbling was heard.

In the city, the experts of the Tongyou Institution stared at each other in shock. They saw the look of apprehension in each other’s eyes.

A sudden change occurred at that instant. Soft ringing came from the depths of the Tongyou Mysterious World and a ray of purple light shot into the air as it tried to make its escape.

“It’s a loose extermination origin, grab it!” Kang Ci roared.

“That’s a Purple Extermination Origin, don’t let it escape!” Shang Ke growled. He clearly knew more than Kang Ci when it came to matters regarding extermination origins.

Who would have thought that the extermination origin would travel in an opposite direction from the two of them? It tried to fly out of the city. Unfortunately for the ray of loose extermination origin, a barrier of white appeared to trap it. The purple extermination origin was firmly trapped in the white barrier that appeared.

Chuckling softly, An Baimei’s brows slowly retracted from the void. That was the white object that formed a barrier to capture the extermination origin and when it finally returned to An Baimei’s face, a streak of purple could be seen on his originally snow-white eyebrows.

“I guess I got lucky. Hahaha, it would be impolite for me to refuse this gift from the heavens!” An Baimei chuckled. Even though he still had a solemn expression plastered on his face, he couldn’t hide the joy in his eyes.

According to the agreement they had with the institution, the moment the Tongyou Mysterious World was formed, the experts who came to help would be able to get a first pick of the treasures that were formed naturally in the mysterious world.

An Baimei was clearly luckier than the rest as he managed to obtain a strand of loose extermination origin. The others could only offer their congratulations despite their envy. He knew that he won big this time. Cupping his fists to return the pleasantries, he turned to head out of the city to stop Han Chongwei’s opponent. Since he received some benefits, he felt that he should replace someone out there so that they had a chance to profit.

Those inside the city weren’t the only ones who saw the strand of loose extermination origin being obtained by An Baimei. Those outside the city saw what happened too.

When An Baimei obtained the strand of extermination origin, someone outside the city cried, “The Tongyou Mysterious World has taken shape and can produce previous treasures. If everyone chooses to remain passive, all the benefits will fall to Kou Chongxue’s disciples… Nothing will be left for you!”

Liu Qinglan forced her opponent back before turning to glare at her surroundings. “Which cowardly asshole is trying to sow discord among us? Show yourself!”

Naturally, the person who spoke wouldn’t show himself. Liu Qinglan’s threat was useless.

However, that didn’t mean that the person’s words were useless. Three more rays of light shot towards the city from another direction.

…

When the most talented disciples of the White Deer Paradise and the Changbai Holy Land reached the peak of the Martial Intent Realm, they would be awarded with treasures that could store extermination qi.

Treasures like that were similar to the Spirit Extermination Gourd Lin Yi used to possess, or the white jade deer carving Li Tianshou used.

Comparing the two of them, Li Tianshou’s treasure seemed a little more impressive as it seemed to possess some life-saving capabilities.

It was a shame that he overlooked something really important when he used his white jade deer carving.

He seemed to have forgotten that it was primarily used to collect extermination qi. When the spiritual deer entered the mist and was unable to locate Shan Xia, it started to absorb the extermination qi around it.

When Shang Xia heard Li Tianshou’s yell earlier, he had already retrieved his aura and hid his presence. He managed to avoid the detection of the spiritual deer when it entered the mist.

Earlier, when he killed the two elite cultivators from the White Deer Paradise, Shang Xia could feel a subtle change happening with his divine sense. He seemed to have touched on the doorstep of the third transformation!

That was the miraculous properties behind the Shang Clan’s inheritance. Training in their spear arts would allow them to progress at a rapid pace. Under such circumstances, Shang Xia understood that a huge opportunity had arrived.

Even though he knew that a strong enemy was waiting for him to emerge from the extermination mist, he chose to hide his presence and focus on the transformation. If he managed to grasp the opportunity, he would be able to complete his third divine sense transformation in a short amount of time!

As the first to sixth move of his Providence Spear Art played out in his mind, a stroke of inspiration struck him and the seventh move became crystal clear in his mind. It was produced from the essence of the first six moves and with the sudden comprehension, Shang Xia felt the Origin True Qi in his body fluctuating wildly as the remaining strands of stray Yin Yang Essence Qi left in his dantian started their conversion. His divine sense started its third transformation at the same time.

At that moment, Shang Xia understood the reason behind the use of his Triple Loop Coalescence Needle when he stepped into the Martial Intent Realm.

Before he could fully digest the gains brought by his third divine sense transformation, a gap seemed to form in the thick mist before him. Frowning slightly, Shang Xia discovered that the figure of a deer was closing in on him rapidly. It seemed as though the disturbance allowed the spiritual deer to locate his presence!

Instinctively, Shang Xia’s Scarlet Star Spear pierced forward to unleash the seventh move he just comprehended, Celestial Disruption!
