Splitting the Heavens-Chapter 1753: Fuse! (Author forgot Chapter number 1752)
Chapter 1753: Fuse! (Author forgot chapter number 1752)
As the Jiuyin Ark entered the Spirit Luxuriant World, the world itself seemed to be able to sense what would happen next. The World’s Will surged and the World Origin Source connected to the various continents churned. The Spirit Luxuriant World appeared eager to continue its expansion.
No longer in the mood to speak further, Shang Xia and Kou Chongxue exchange a glance before rushing to the heavenly screen.
Kou Chongxue needed to return to the Elysium in the Jiao Continent as quickly as possible to enter seclusion. He needed to reach the grand completion stage of the Martial Void Realm while using the blessing of the world to recover.
At the same time, he would use the opportunity to lay down a solid foundation for his future breakthrough to the Martial Emptiness Realm.
Shang Xia still couldn’t enter the Spirit Luxuriant World, but he remained outside the heavenly screen with his Origin Star Avatar to provide protection, ensuring nothing would go wrong during the world ascension.
At the same time, Shang Xia once again sensed countless gazes both from within and beyond the Star Curtain. Everyone was observing their transformation, waiting for the critical moment during its final ascension.
Shang Xia and his Origin Star Avatar were unable to enter the Spirit Luxuriant World, but they could extend their senses to track every detail of its transformation, hoping to gain insights from the transformation.
It was not just Shang Xia and Kou Chongxue who reacted. As long as they were in the Martial Extermination Realm or higher, everyone mobilized. Everyone hoped to contribute to the integration of the mini Spirit Lyric World and aid the Spirit Luxuriant World in its final stretch of transformation to an Essence World. No one wanted to miss the opportunity to benefit from the process.
One could say that at that very moment, the Spirit Luxuriant World was more united than ever before. Everyone was contributing their strength to support final leg of transformation.
Once the Jiuyin Ark passed through the heavenly screen, it began to descend slowly. During the process, the Ark's main structure started to disintegrate. However, the space it contained did not collapse thanks to the combined strength of thousands of other cultivators who forcefully stabilized it. Among them were numerous True Immortals from the other factions.
Under the leadership of the True Immortals of the various factions, along with the survivors in the mini Spirit Lyric World who gave their full cooperation, the world essence of the Spirit Lyric World poured into the Spirit Luxuriant World and started the fusion process.
During the assimilation, the World’s Will began to acknowledge the survivors of the Spirit Lyric World. It was especially so for those with higher cultivation. The stronger they were, the greater their connection with the world essence of the Spirit Lyric World. If they failed to obtain the recognition of the Spirit Luxuriant World, not only would they be suppressed by the World’s Will, their cultivation wouldn’t be able to improve any further. In serious cases, it would also start to regress.
As such... Gaining recognition from the Spirit Luxuriant World was critically important for those of higher cultivation levels!
At the end of the day, the mini Spirit Lyric World wasn’t actually a proper world. It was merely a half-complete Dao Field. Compared to the Spirit Luxuriant World that was undergoing ascension, the help they provided was merely a small part. Even after absorbing the world essence, the World’s Will didn’t fully acknowledge their identities. There were still some forms of suppression, and the higher their cultivation level, the more pronounced it was.
Even though it wouldn’t cause their cultivation to regress, it would make it a lot more difficult to progress. Compared to being completely cut off from their martial path, it was still much better.
Moreover, the suppression wasn’t permanent. Once the Spirit Luxuriant World successfully ascended, the suppression would be significantly weakened. Perhaps within a few decades, even the True Immortals of the Spirit Lyric World would return to their normal cultivation.
In truth, if the Spirit Luxuriant World’s ascension hadn’t been so rushed, and if it had possessed deeper foundations, especially a higher number of True Immortals, they wouldn’t need to preserve so many cultivators of the Spirit Lyric World.
As the Spirit Lyric World’s essence was slowly assimilated into the World Origin Source, the million or so survivors were quickly relocated to the various continents.
Even though a million survivors was nothing to the huge population in the 24 continents of the Spirit Luxuriant World, the various factions didn’t wish for them to congregate.
During the process, some communities that had retained relatively independent Spirit Lyric World traditions were deliberately distributed across the various continents, allowing them to preserve their cultural lineage while being integrated into the world.
The only reason they were willing to give the members of the Spirit Lyric World a place to stay so easily was also because the time between the Spirit Luxuriant World’s ascension was too short. It only took several dozen years and they had vast territories that had undeveloped areas. If they weren’t quickly utilized, they would soon become breeding grounds for spiritual beasts.
Using those land to house the survivors of the Spirit Lyric World solved their problems. They could prevent the members of the Spirit Lyric World from gathering together, and they could also preserve the martial heritage of the Spirit Lyric World. At the same time, they would stop the spiritual beasts from reproducing to a point they went out of control. It was basically a win-win-win situation!
With most of the Spirit Lyric World essence had been absorbed, the mini Spirit Lyric World also merged with the Spirit Luxuriant World.
Throughout the ascension process, the Spirit Luxuriant World had been expanding. However, the expansion occurred so gradually that unless they were paying close attention, no one would notice it.
Yet at the moment the mini Spirit Lyric World began its fusion, everyone instantly sensed the transformation. The sky felt larger and the land seemed broader.
As the mini Spirit Lyric World became a giant landmass that was ready to be placed in the Spirit Luxuriant World, everyone could see that it was the size of 2 continents.
The higher-ups of the Spirit Luxuriant World had long prepared for it. With a thunderous rumble, the landmass was split into 2 and dropped into the sea in the eastern region of the world. They would eventually form 2 continents.
As part of this process, numerous shattered fragments of land fell nearby, forming chains of islands around the new coast.
At the request of several True Immortals of the Spirit Lyric World, Those continents were designated as a foundation for preserving the Spirit Lyric World’s foundations. During the fusion process, many experts of the Spirit Lyric World chipped in and forced 4 Holy Lands.
The 4 remaining True Immortals of the Spirit Lyric World brought their followers and established 4 sects. The largest sect had hundreds of members, while the smallest only had a few dozen.
However, since the ordinary members of the Spirit Lyric World had been spread across the Spirit Luxuriant World, those new sects needed to grow and recruit members of the Spirit Luxuriant World.
That way, after several decades or centuries, as a new generation of cultivators rose, those 4 sects would naturally evolve into native powers of the Spirit Luxuriant World.
