Splitting the Heavens

Chapter 908: The Strength of a Sixth Order

Kou Chongxue might have missed Dugu Yuanshan with the sword qi earlier, but he was actually aiming for the spatial tunnel.

Dugu Yuanshan didnt notice Kou Chongxues intention when he first released the sword qi, but the moment Liu Jingsheng launched his maniacal attacks to keep him from intercepting the sword qi, he quickly discovered Kou Chongxues plan.

Even though the sword qi had traveled extremely far away, it wasnt impossible for Dugu Yuanshan if he really went all out to try to intercept it. However, after a moment of hesitation, he chose not to do so. Instead, he turned to face Liu Jingsheng and used his divine weapon that he shrunk down to send him flying.

In the void 10,000 miles away, another Martial Void Realm expert emerged from the spatial tunnel right before Kou Chongxues sword qi could sunder the tunnel. As soon as he arrived, he emitted blinding rays of light to destroy Kou Chongxues sword qi.

At the same time, Liu Jingsheng suffered greatly at the hands of Dugu Yuanshan who turned his attention to him. He was sent crashing back into the Jiao Continent below as Dugu Yuanshans divine weapon slammed into him and suffered a great loss.

Fortunately, Kou Chongxue noticed his predicament and he no longer bothered about the appearance of the new Martial Void Realm expert. With a flip of his wrist, his sword slashed towards Dugu Yuanshan again and prevented him from following up to continue the assault on Liu Jingsheng.

As he turned to face Dugu Yuanshan, the Stellar Cauldron that had been under his feet to supply him with world origin, disappeared. After stepping into the Martial Void Realm, the Stellar Cauldron was still supplementing his combat abilities. However, it was no longer as crucial as when he was in the Martial Dipper Realm. Since he was able to draw on world origin with his own abilities, he didnt wish to rely too much on the Stellar Cauldron.

Facing Kou Chongxues sword qi, Dugu Yuanshan didnt dare to be careless in the slightest. He understood that the native Martial Void Realm expert he was fighting was somewhat of a freakish monster. Not only did he step into the Martial Void Realm under his eyes with a method he had never seen before, but he could also shift more than half the world origin concentrated under the continent to supplement his strength. He was even stronger than the Martial Void Realm expert he was helping back then!

From what Dugu Yuanshan could see, he already had knowledge about the Martial Void Realm and made a lot of preparations before stepping into it!

That was an Azure World that just completed its transformation they were talking about. From what they understood about the Azure Ascension World, the experts of the Spirit Abundance World could tell that the Azure Ascension World was barely completing their understanding of the Martial Dipper Realm. They hadnt even produced a proper inheritance on it!

For a world that had such an incomplete cultivation path and weak foundations, how could anyone possibly know anything about the Martial Void Realm before stepping into it?!

One had to know that even with the Spirit Abundance Worlds strong foundations and strength ranking among the top Spirit Worlds, they hadnt fully explored and perfected the inheritance to the Martial void Realm

We really met a freak this time

We cant allow him to grow! We have to get rid of him right now, otherwise, our Spirit Abundance World will be in grave danger

Dugu Yuanshan further affirmed his decision to call for backup.

Xiong Chunyang was the Distant Exertion King from the Dajun Dynasty. He was of royal bloodline and his cultivation was also at the third tier of the Martial Void Realm.

He was an existence who had the power to change the tides of battle alone.

As the strongest power in the Spirit Abundance World, the Dajun Dynasty was naturally restricted by the various powers before the start of their operation to invade a foreign world.

As such, even though the experts of the Dajun Dynasty wanted to join in the battle, they were pressured by the other factions to stay back. Even though Xiong Chunyangs cultivation was similar to Dugu Yuanshan which made him one of the strongest Martial Void Realm experts present, he was sent to the backlines to maintain the spatial tunnels. All he had to do was to send Martial Dipper Realm experts over without taking part in the battle.

Now that they no longer had the upper hand, it was extremely likely the experts of the Spirit Abundance World would have to return empty handed and even suffer huge losses for it.

When that happened, the higher-ups of the Spirit Abundance World would definitely look into the matter. Dugu Yuanshan, who refused to take down a newly ascended Liu Jingsheng just because of the Starry Tree would definitely become public enemy number 1.

In order to turn the tables and not be the scapegoat for everything, Dugu Yuanshan could only break the agreement they had to not let the Dajun Dynasty take part in the battle.

Actually, Dugu Yuanshan was also taking a gamble. If they succeeded, he wouldnt have to worry about becoming a scapegoat for the failed invasion, and he would also have sold the Dajun Dynasty a huge favor. Of course, with Xiong Chunyangs tyrannical strength, the Dajun Dynasty would definitely take the largest portion of the pie.

Compared to the entire operation failing, giving the lions share of the benefits to the Dajun Dynasty was nothing. At least in the eyes of Dugu Yuanshan, he wouldnt have to bear the consequences and his Solitary Peak Heavenly Lake wouldnt be too affected.

Looking at the situation, Dugu Yuanshan was confident that the moment Xiong Chunyang entered the battle, he would be the key to shattering the Azure Ascension Worlds defenses.

Even though Xiong Chunyang arrived and destroyed Kou Chongxues sword qi, he didnt immediately join the battle at the heavenly screen. Instead, he continued to stroll about the void before the spatial tunnels as though he hadnt seen the situation.

Xiong Chunyang, what the fuck are you up to?! Dugu Yuanshang was truly starting to panic. With the advancement process complete and the Spirit World taking shape, the entire process was about to end. The Worlds Will would reach its peak state. It was already strengthening as time passed and he was starting to have a hard time dealing with the swordsman who just broke through.

Brother Dugu and fellow cultivators, all of you have to understand that the moment I leave this spot, the only spatial tunnel we have left will be exposed. The blazing light in the distance sent a gentle voice transmission over to the Martial Void Realm experts of the Spirit Abundance World.

What the fuck! None of us needs the spatial tunnel to return Dugu Yuanshan felt the words getting stuck in his throat when he realized the true implications of having only 1 spatial tunnel left. Experts in the Martial Void Realm might be able to traverse the sea of stars to return to their worlds as long as they knew its exact location, but that didnt mean that Martial Dipper Realm experts could do the same!

The moment they sounded the retreat, the spatial tunnel would only be able to send 2 Martial Dipper Realm experts back at once! How long would they need to send all their experts back?!

When that happened, anyone who was left behind would basically be free loot for the members of the new Spirit World.

The thought flashed through Dugu Yuanshans mind before he understood what was going on. That wouldnt happen unless the Spirit Abundance World suffered a complete defeat. With Xiong Chunyangs presence, was a complete defeat even possible?

However, he also thought of another possibility. For Xiong Chunyang to remain around the spatial tunnel would mean that he was probably informing the experts of the Dajun Dynasty to fall back just in case.

After all, there was no need for their Martial Dipper Realm experts to fight for resources or merit now that he was present. Him alone would be enough to obtain the greatest amount of benefits for the Dajun Dynasty!

Since Brother Xiong is here, the situation will be decided the moment you make your move. Whats the point of hurrying your juniors back? Dugu Yuanshan hadnt noticed his abnormal behavior. He was acting like a deranged gambler at the moment who just went all in. He had blind confidence that his bet that was introducing Xiong Chunyang into the battle would be enough to win! He never bothered thinking about the consequences if they lost!

Neither of them bothered hiding their conversation from the Martial Void Realm experts of the Spirit Abundance World, but none of them had been saying anything ever since Dugu Yuanshan called for support.

If they werent at the heavenly screen ready to invade another world and could feel the intense spatial fluctuations from the battle over at their side, both Xiong Chunyang and Dugu Yuanshan would have thought that they had left!

Finally, Xiong Chunyangs gentle voice rang in their ears once again. Since Brother Dugu requested for me to take action again, it wont be right if I continue to reject. Ill enter the battle!

As soon as the words left his lips, the blazing ball of light appeared above the heavenly screen. With a long sigh escaping its lips, it turned into a massive meteor that shot at the heavenly screen.

With the whole ascension process complete and the Spirit World about to form, the experts of the Azure Ascension World thought that the outcome of the battle was set. They didnt think that a sixth Martial Void Realm expert from the Spirit Abundance World would appear and their hearts that burned with the hopes of victory fell into the abyss of despair.

Every single one of them understood what an existence at the Martial Void Realm represented. None of them were easy to deal with.

However, the expert who arrived wasnt in a rush to enter the battle when he first arrived. Instead, everyone saw how he was hovering about the spatial tunnels.

All of a sudden, a region of space around the Beyond Heavens Pavilion above the You Continent trembled and a three-legged cauldron that was no longer rusty and worn made its appearance. It revealed itself right before Shang Xia.

Stellar Cauldron? Why is it here? Shang Xia stared at it with a look of confusion. He understood that it wasnt exactly the best idea for anyone to learn of its appearance, especially since it was no longer with Kou Chongxue. He covered it with his Five Element Dipper Qi to hide its presence.

Shang Xia knew that the Stellar Cauldron was providing Kou Chongxue with a massive boost in strength when he fought Dugu Yuanshan with Liu Jingsheng earlier. It allowed him to release his peerless sword art.

Now that the Stellar Cauldron had been sent over, Shang Xia understood that it was no longer something Kou Chongxue desperately needed to fight his opponent.

After all, the sword qi that was flashing from time to time with unparalleled brilliance clearly belonged to Kou Chongxue. It seemed as though he wasnt having problems at all!

For him to send the Stellar Cauldron over He definitely had his reasons for doing so!

As Shang Xia thought deeper into the patriarchs intentions, he sent a portion of his Five Element Dipper Qi into the cauldron. As long as he didnt try to refine the artifact, he shouldnt have any problems using its functions. After all, he had the experience of doing it before.

Also, Kou Chongxue had released nearly all of his control over the Stellar Cauldron for the time being and Shang Xia was able to use it as he wished.

As soon as his inner qi flowed into the cauldron, Kou Chongxues voice rang in his ears. Go to the Eternal Palace and
