Splitting the Heavens-Chapter 1681: Direction of Cultivation in the Seven Star Realm
Chapter 1681: Direction of Cultivation in the Seven Star Realm
Since he broke through to the Seven Star Realm, Shang Xia has already experienced several intense battles. There wasn’t a need to mention stabilizing his foundation. He hadn’t even inspected his dantian to look at the Big Dipper Star Origin that had completed its transformation.
Finally, after defeating 2 Martial Emptiness Realm clones and driving away Zhuo Gudao, Shang Xia started to repair the breach in the heavenly screen while focusing on the situation in his dantian.
Shang Xia might have looked into his dantian before the transformation was complete and had an idea of what it would become, but he was still shocked when he looked at it again.
In the center of his dantain, there was a massive star that was the brightest and largest. It also contained the most concentrated Power of the Stars. He called it the Origin Star, which was also the symbol of his advancement to the Seven Star Realm.
Around the Origin Star, there were 7 other stars arranged in the Big Dipper formation. However, all of them looked rather dim at the moment and they even looked like mere illusions.
However... he knew that those 7 stars weren’t just there for show. To some extent, they symbolized his progress in the Seven Star Realm. Every time one of them was illuminated, his cultivation would be said to have taken a step forward into the next rank.
Of course, there was still a distinction between his cultivation and that of other Martial Emptiness Realm Sages. Ordinary Sages would have to grow step by step in a set order while he could choose which star he wanted to light up next.
That reminded Shang Xia of his cultivation method in the Five Element Realm. While refining his fate dippers, he didn’t have to do them in order. Instead, he used fate dipper essences to refine all his fate dippers simultaneously.
Naturally, there were still differences. In the Five Element Realm, he had to refine all his fate dippers at once in order to ensure the equilibrium wasn’t broken. However, in the Seven Star Realm, each of the 7 stars could be illuminated as opportunities arose.
In his current state, where none of them were lit up, there were still differences in the brightness of each star. 3 of them appeared almost imperceptible while the other 4 were slightly brighter.
After carefully inspecting them, the 3 darkest stars were absorbing his Seven Star Qi. Even though it was slow and he wouldn’t be able to notice it if he wasn’t looking carefully, they were slowly regaining their light.
As for the other 4 stars... When Shang Xia conducted a closer inspection, 3 of them weren’t absorbing any Seven Star Qi. They remained as bright as they were after the transformation happened. Only the last star was absorbing Seven Star Qi to slowly grow brighter. With how things were going, it should be the brightest star before long.
The next second, he seemed to have thought of something. He seemed to have noticed a resonance from one of the stars in his dantian and he revealed a look of realization.
As he had predicted, those stars didn’t just match the 7 suns in the Big Dipper formation. It also resonated with the Spirit Calming Vessels he placed in the World Origin Sources in the various worlds.

Each of them matched with the stars in his dantian, and the 3 darkest stars symbolized his Spirit Calming Vessels in the Spirit Ruling World, Spirit Faith World, and Spirit Light World.
Because of the quality of world origin in those worlds which were inferior compared to Essence Worlds, they appeared dimmer. However, because his Spirit Calming Vessels still existed on them, they could still absorb his inner qi.
The 4 relatively brighter stars were connected to the Spirit Calming Vessels in the Essence Worlds, and they were naturally brighter due to the superior quality of world origin that existed in those worlds compared to Spirit Worlds.
When Shang Xia broke through, the world origin he absorbed from them caused those stars to become brighter. The only problem was that in Essence Worlds, the presence of his Spirit Calming Vessels couldn’t be hidden from the Sages as long as they decided to do some digging.
As such, the second Shang Xia completed his breakthrough and his Spirit Calming Vessels were discovered; many of them were destroyed. Yan Yu crushed the artifact in the World Origin Source in the Qinglan Continent, and the same happened to his artifact in the Essence Xing World. The Spirit Calming Vessel he left in the Essence Ping World in the Star Origin Lord’s territory was also found by a clone and obliterated.
The only Spirit Calming Vessel that remained intact in an Essence World was left in the southern region of the Essence Ping World. After all, there are no Sages there and even though there were high-level True Immortals of the Spirit Abundance World who discovered the disturbance in the World Origin Source, they weren’t able to find the artifact. It allowed the star in Shang Xia’s dantian to grow the brightest.
"In other words... I would be able to use the world origin from those worlds to grow stronger when cultivating in the Seven Star Realm!” Shang Xia mumbled to himself after thinking for a second.
Of course, he could also continue to cultivate himself with the only downside being that it would take too long. If he were to do so slowly, he had no idea when he would be able to reach the grand completion stage of the Seven Star Realm.
Other than raising his cultivation, Shang Xia also realized another important point. He had to develop his rank seven secret art and martial art soon. Otherwise, there wasn’t a need to mention refining energy slowly. Even if he could draw on the world origin from the various worlds, he wouldn’t be able to speed up his cultivation significantly.
