Splitting the Heavens-Chapter 860: Seventh Set of Fate Dipper Essences

At the end of the day, the Azure Flame World wasn’t the home of experts from the Azure Ascension World. Their goal was to obtain world origin, and regardless if it was Shang Xia or Kou Chongxue, neither showed restraint when they devoured world origin through the Stellar Cauldron. They acted without a care in the world as they wanted to absorb as much as they could as quickly as they could!

It was especially so after Shang Xia controlled the cauldron. The speed at which the world origin was absorbed reached a whole new level, and it immediately caused the World’s Will to feel a sense of fear.

The feeling spread to the high-level experts extremely quickly. Even Martial Ancestors of the world could feel what the World’s Will felt. Of course, they didn’t know the source of it.

Only Martial Sages could feel the fear the World’s Will had and the pain it was feeling. They could deduce that the outsiders were the cause of it.

The true peak-tier existences in the Azure Flame World could accurately pinpoint the change to the World Origin Source, and they could tell it was gradually growing stronger.

The change to the World Origin Source was gradually becoming something strange to them, but they were clear that it was changing for the worse. A trace of urgency filled their minds and they instinctively wanted to drive the outsiders out of the Azure Flame World.

Shang Xia might not know that above the Eastern Nuanyuan Continent, experts of the Azure Flame World were gathering under Yuancang Ming’s banner.

When he was about to fully convert the heaven and earth spiritual qi in the Yanlin Holy Land, a massive explosion happened. It brought about large-scale spatial fluctuations, and even the spatial barriers around couldn’t stop it. It affected the core region of the Holy Land, and it forced Shang Xia and everyone else who was cultivating to snap awake.

“What’s going on?”

“Is the Yanlin Holy Land under attack?”

“Did the experts of the Azure Flame World feel uneasy and start attacking?”

“No... This doesn’t seem right. If they chose to attack, we should have received news of their presence a long time ago!”

“...”

Several Martial Dipper Realm experts who restored a good portion of their strength decided to head out to take a look, but several voice transmissions quickly arrived to inform them of what was going on.

“Someone is actually attempting a sneak attack!”

“Are they the survivors of the Yanlin Clan?”

“Why would they dare to do something like this? They should be hiding in god knows where now, afraid that we will find them!”

“The experts from other continents seem to be attacking! The previous attack seemed to be a probe...”

“They seem more like they’re trying to create chaos to stop us from transforming the Yanlin City.”

“This only proves that they discovered what we’re doing and they’re just testing the waters at the moment. They should still have more experts behind them and they might have already formed an alliance and will be ready to attack us soon...”

“Is it something that we should be surprised by? Wasn’t it going to happen anyway? Why the hell would we modify the city?”

“Ahem... Actually, things seem to have been sped up because of our young friend Shang...” freewebnove l.com

“...”

Shang Xia was eavesdropping on them at the moment, but he didn’t think that he would become their topic of conversation!

Why the hell am I the cause of their probing attacks?!

“Why is that the case? Other than taking down the city wall, young friend Shang didn’t take part in too many operations. He has been focused on controlling the Origin Holy Artifact the entire time...” Other Martial Dipper Realm experts quickly came to speak for him.

The first Martial Dipper Realm expert who brought up the topic chuckled in response. “Who would expect young friend Shang to be able to control world origin to a greater degree than Patriarch Kou? I’m afraid that he went too hard when absorbing world origin and caused the World’s Will to feel a sense of threat. The peak-tier experts of the Azure Flame World would definitely receive feedback from the World’s Will and take action...”

“That’s where you’re wrong. It’s a good thing that young friend Shang is able to increase the speed at which we’re absorbing world origin. This isn’t our territory, and the longer we drag things out, the worse it will be.” Other Martial Dipper Realm experts retorted.

“Exactly! We can’t blame him for this! The faster he absorbs world origin, the better!” Several others chimed in and roared with laughter.

The person who spoke first also laughed, indicating that everything he said earlier was a joke.

Shang Xia couldn’t help but join in the laughter. “Many thanks for seniors’ praise...”

After he was done, Shang Xia no longer cared about their conversations as he started to focus on absorbing world origin.

Intentionally or unintentionally, everyone gave him some sort of reminder. He needed to try his best to absorb world origin to accomplish their goals of being in the Azure Flame World.

Shang Xia agreed with many of the things they said. Now that the experts from the other continents tried to disrupt their plans, it meant that they were starting to form an alliance.

Since that was the case, the faster he absorbed world origin, the better!

After thinking about it for a moment, Shang Xia gave up trying to open the bronze book. It was a great source of distraction, and it would exhaust a good amount of his Five Element Dipper Qi.

As for the Crimson Soul Tablet in his mind, it stopped caring about the world origin pouring out from the Azure Flame World some time ago. It was as though his guess was right and it was merely having a taste of it because it came from a different world.

Shang Xia maintained the speed at which he was absorbing world origin while changing his focus on refining his seventh set of fate dipper essences!

That was right! After 2 massive battles that passed, along with the gains Kou Chongxue and Shang Xia gained along the way, the number of fate dipper essences he managed to gather reached a terrifying level! He managed to gather an entire set of fate dipper essence for his cultivation!

As he refined more and more fate dipper essences, his cultivation increased proportionally and he got closer and closer to the large completion stage. Refining fate dipper essences wasn’t as difficult as before, and the speed of refinement actually reached a terrifying level!

His way of cultivation was vastly different from other Martial Dipper Realm experts. As their cultivation bases increased, Martial Dipper Realm experts realized a drop in their cultivation speed. The more they were afraid of following through with their cultivation, the greater the risk of experiencing an imbalance in their fate dippers and experiencing cultivation deviation. It wasn’t strange for one to be stuck at the same level for tens of years!

With Shang Xia’s theory of the five elements, he didn’t have to consider anything like that at all! Instead, the closer he got to the large completion stage, the more confident he became of his cultivation path!

...

The third batch of experts came to restore their energy around the Stellar Cauldron as the earlier batch left. There were many Martial Extermination Realm experts in the third batch, and with his frightening cultivation speed, his refinement of his fate dipper essences was coming to an end.

The world origin in the Yanlin Holy Land had been completely transformed by that point, and the experts from the Azure Ascension World could cultivate however they wanted within.

That wasn’t all. The heaven and earth spiritual qi in the city had pretty much been converted and the experts of the Azure Ascension World didn’t feel as foreign as before.

A direct impact of the transformation was the grand formation of the Yanlin City. After the modifications, it was able to display its full power. It would play a very important part in defending against the upcoming siege from the experts of the Azure Flame World.

With the probes giving the experts of the Azure Flame World more and more information about the Yanlin City, they understood that the city was extremely well fortified. There were some who came alone and were forced to back away before they could arrive in the vicinity of the city.

Along with Shang Xia’s continuous absorption of world origin, the heaven and earth spiritual qi in the Azure Flame World started to weaken slightly. It might be slight, but experts at their level could clearly feel the difference.

He was also about to refine his seventh set of fate dipper essences, and the speed of absorption of the Origin Holy Artifact rose in intensity yet again.

This time, the experts of the Azure Flame World didn’t need to continue their speculation. The goal of the outsiders was clear for all to see.

Probing attacks no longer fell on the city as often, but the experts of the Azure Ascension World in the city didn’t dare to relax in the slightest. Instead, they raised their guard.

All of them knew that the great battle that would decide if they could return to the Azure Ascension World and help its ascension was about to arrive.

Everyone was storing energy to the best of their abilities for the critical moment, and a loud blast suddenly resounded from the depths of the Azure Flame World. It was as though a giant gong was reverberating violently.

The experts in the city felt the density of heaven and earth spiritual qi around them rising rapidly, and it seemed as though Shang Xia created a massive whirlpool in the World Origin Source and connected it to the Yanlin City.

“What’s happening?!”

“What’s going on?!”

“Did something happen to young friend Shang?!”

“Quickly! Go take a look!”

The atmosphere changed instantly. Even though the situation seemed to benefit the experts of the Azure Ascension World, all of them were feeling uneasy. No one liked a sudden change in the situation right before a grand battle, much less one that felt like a backlash from the world!

Shockingly enough, none of them knew that even though the sudden change caused them to panic, the experts of the Azure Flame World who were outside the city felt their hearts leaping out of their chests.

That was because they felt the sudden dip in heaven and earth spiritual qi in their world once again, and this time, it was decreasing at a frightening pace.

The feeling wasn’t limited to those in the Fifth or Fourth Order of the Primary Realm. Even those in the Third or Second Order of the Primary Realm felt it! Fear immediately settled in their hearts.

When the experts on both sides were experiencing different levels of shock, Shang Xia, who was in the Yanlin Holy Land, opened his eyes. The massive qi wave that appeared earlier because of the sudden increase in absorption was quickly controlled by him.

He finally completed the refinement of his seventh set of fate dipper essences, and the second it happened, he discovered that his control over world origin increased yet again! It reached a horrifying level that would leave everyone tongue-tied.
