Splitting the Heavens

Chapter 741: Sixth Order to the Rescue

Chapter 741: Sixth Order to the Rescue

Originally, the Yuanchen Sect and Liu Jingsheng had the opportunity to make their grand appearance as the savior of the world to receive praises from the other Holy Lands.

However, in order to accelerate the process of the Xiangyang Holy Land’s ascension, Liu Jingsheng chose to delay the time taken for the ascension process until the Spirit Abundance World invaded. By doing so, he managed to make up an excuse for the other factions to provide the necessary world origin even at the cost of weakening their own foundations. He even hoped that the other Elysiums would assist him to bear the burden of the backlash from the World’s Will.

The goodwill and appreciation everyone would have had for the Yuanchen Sect vanished the moment he pulled those stunts.

Obviously, none of those mattered to Liu Jingsheng. To him, everything was worth it if the Xiangyang Holy Land could successfully upgrade to the Xiangyang Elysium. Moreover, he would also step into the Sixth order of the Primary Realm.

With Kou Chongxue calling him out, Liu Jingsheng could no longer delay the process. He finally took the last step.

A massive mirage appeared above the Beyond Heavens Pavilion as the Xiangyang Holy Land completed its ascension. At the same time, Liu Jingsheng harnessed the power of the advancement and touched on the elusive realm he had been dreaming of for more than 100 years.

In the Tongyou Paradise, an existence who was controlling the Holy Land with the help of the grand formation also noticed the changes happening to the new world. The person was none other than Chu Jia, who was in the third layer of the Martial Extermination Realm. With the assistance of the grand formation, her senses were comparable to Martial Dipper Realm Ancestors and such a huge disturbance was clearly felt.

The moment the Xiangyang Elysium took shape, she felt the world origin reserves of their world decreasing by a huge portion. The world itself seemed to be groaning in pain, and there was a trace of rage contained within!

Through the spatial barrier around the Tongyou Paradise, Chu Jia could see the majestic mirage outside the Beyond Heavens Pavilion. She understood where the world origin reserves of the new world went!

At the same time, she thought back to the rage of the world she felt earlier and pretty much guessed the reason behind the Xiangyang Elysium’s request for world origin from the other factions back then.

As a cultivator in the Martial Extermination Realm, Chu Jia couldn’t interfere with anything happening outside the Beyond Heavens Pavilion, and frankly, she didn’t have the qualifications to do so. However, the ascension of the Xiangyang Holy Land left behind a lot of tracks that others could learn from.

The moment the Xiangyang Elysium took shape, the fourth existence in the Sixth Order of the Primary Realm appeared.

A majestic pillar of spiritual light rose past the Beyond Heavens Pavilion and appeared close to the region of sealed space in an instant. With the nourishment of the spiritual light, the glass barrier that was faintly discernible started to turn a little clearer.

The cracks it had suffered started to recover at a greater speed but that wasn’t all. A ball of light gathered around one of the gaps in the glass barrier where a long range spatial tunnel was.

Along with a loud crack that could only be heard by their divine wills, the fourth spatial tunnel was shattered. The gap was sealed off by a six sided glass barrier that appeared from nowhere and the spatial tunnel was completely obstructed.

That wasn’t all. Following which, another pillar of light appeared from the Beyond Heavens Pavilion. It fused with the glass barrier before another condensed ray of light shot straight for another spatial tunnel.

At the same time, profound lights emerged from the remaining 3 spatial tunnels. 3 figures wrapped in protective barriers were about to appear and the condensed ray paused for a moment. Just as a figure was stepping out of the spatial tunnel, the ray severed the tunnel along with the cultivator. The gap in the glass barrier was sealed completely and half the body of the approaching figure fell powerlessly. Even his head was sliced cleanly in half.

A powerful cultivator at the Martial Dipper Realm was killed just like that! Under the schemes of an expert at the Sixth Order of the Primary Realm, he didn’t have a chance to split off a Fate Dipper Clone.

With Liu Jingsheng’s successful promotion to the Sixth Order of the Primary Realm, 2 of the 4 spatial tunnels were severed.

However, that seemed to be the extent of his ability. He just entered the Sixth Order of the Primary Realm and that was all he could do for the time being.

Even though spiritual lights swirled constantly around the glass barrier and shook the remaining 2 spatial tunnels, they showed no signs of shattering. It looked like nothing would be able to shatter those tunnels in the near future.

2 experts stepped out from the intact tunnels and stared all around. There were supposed to be 4 of them, but one of the tunnels was severed, throwing an unlucky soul somewhere in the depths of space. The other was ambushed by the new expert in the Sixth Order of the Primary Realm and couldn’t be more dead.

They were supposed to stop the ascension of the fourth expert in the Sixth Order of the Primary Realm but their mission was over before they arrived. They could only throw themselves into the chaotic battle that was happening in order to relieve the pressure on their comrades.

Of course, they merely made the situation a little less dangerous for their fellow cultivators.

…

With the successful birth of the fourth existence in the Sixth Order of the Primary Realm, the new world started their counterattack. All 4 experts of the Sixth Order of the Primary Realm poured their energy into the glass barrier and spiritual lights continued to swirl about its surface. The final 2 spatial tunnels trembled unceasingly. The moment the spatial tunnels were broken, the experts of the Spirit Abundance World would be like turtles trapped in a jar.

With things progressing up to that point, the invasion of the Spirit Abundance World could be said to have completely failed! The moment Liu Jingsheng stepped into the Sixth Order of the Primary Realm, the outcome of the operation had been decided.

The only thing the experts of the Spirit Abundance World could think of at the moment wasn’t to send more experts over to take over the new world. Instead, they were thinking of how to stabilize the spatial tunnels to the best of their abilities to get their experts out!

The reaction of those from the Spirit Abundance World was extremely speedy. After the 2 experts from their side emerged, they started to call for a retreat.

Grouping up with the divine weapon wielding experts on their side with cultivation bases in the fourth element of the Martial Dipper Realm or higher, the 2 newcomers covered the rest as they retreated towards the remaining spatial tunnels.

The supreme experts of the Spirit Abundance World who were providing the long range support didn’t remain idle. Horrifying rays of light appeared once again from the depths of space as they slammed into the glass barrier like what happened when their invasion first started. They managed to prevent the final 2 spatial tunnels from being destroyed as they bought as much time for those stuck in the region of sealed space.

The experts of the Azure Worlds also knew that the invasion failed completely now that the glass barrier was repairing itself. There was no way they could allow the experts of the Spirit Abundance World to leave as they wished. Since the start of the battle, at least 20 experts from the Azure Worlds suffered heavy injuries or had fallen in battle. The experts of the Spirit Abundance World were worse as the number of deaths and heavily injured surpassed 30 in number.

The grudge they held for each other had reached a point where it was nearly impossible to resolve!

Moreover, the experts of the Azure Worlds knew that even though they resisted the invasion this time, that didn’t mean that the Spirit Abundance World would give up. Experts of the Azure Worlds were only able to resist the invasion because the Spirit Abundance World hadn’t made enough preparations. The reason they were in such a rush was that they wanted to prevent the new world’s ascension to a Spirit World and they hurriedly gathered whatever resources they could to start such a long range battle.

In the future, they would definitely be much more prepared. They would probably attack with everything they had and holding them off would be almost impossible.

The experts of the Azure Worlds took the chance to press forward to kill as many enemies as they could. After all, the more they killed, the more they would weaken the other side.

10000 miles away from the glass barrier, the experts fighting Kou Chongxue also started to retreat when they saw what had happened.

Unfortunately, Kou Chongxue saw through their intentions and his sword intent grew even more intense. The 5 elements in his body showed signs of complementing each other as they created an endless cycle when they were unleashed.

The moment he sent out his sword strike, Kou Chongxue noticed that even though it didn’t seem to be a lot more powerful than before, it seemed to contain no weakness at all!

“Haha! So that’s it!” Kou Chongxue seemed to have verified his guess and he also discovered something new about his path of cultivation. He couldn’t control himself as he roared with laughter.

On the contrary, the 2 experts from the Spirit Abundance World felt the pressure increase because of Kou Chongxue’s epiphany. They discovered that they couldn’t find any way to break away from their opponent and if things kept up, they would eventually die under his blade!

“What the hell?! He became even stronger! Was he hiding his strength earlier or did he improve while we were fighting? If it’s the latter…” The experts from the Spirit Abundance World glanced at each other and saw the look of fear in each other’s eyes.

While that went down, the battle formation that consisted of Shang Xia, Shang Bo, Shen Baisong, Luo Baixu, and Yin Wanxiang pressed forward. The number of people they were fighting earlier increased to 3 when everything was happening, but now that the experts of the Spirit Abundance World chose to retreat, the pressure on them lightened up significantly. 2 of their opponents managed to escape, but the unlucky soul left behind was immediately surrounded by the 5 of them. After killing their target, exhaustion swept over most of the experts in their squad. WIth the exception of Luo Baixu whose cultivation level was the highest among all of them and Shang Xia who was providing support by amplifying the others’ strength, the others were so tired their figures were wobbling as they stood in space.

“Hey brat, why are you always hiding at the back while providing support? What are you planning anyway?” Realizing that the battle formation was basically done for now that 3 of the 5 were unable to fight, Luo Baixu turned to Shang Xia and asked. He wasn’t exhausted to the point where he couldn’t move, but he was pretty tired. He wanted to understand what Shang Xia was actually doing.

The others might believe that Shang Xia was providing support by amplifying their dipper qi by controlling the flow of energy, but Luo Baixu wasn’t on the same level as them. His cultivation and experience far surpassed the others and he could tell that Shang Xia was actually doing something else.

Shang Xia didn’t think that he would be able to hide his actions from Luo Baixu and seeing as everyone was staring at him, he chuckled, “It’s nothing special. I was familiarizing myself with the flow of dipper qi in order to improve my self created rank five martial arts.”
