Splitting the Heavens-Chapter 866: Five Element Clone!

Shang Xia felt that after he completed the refinement of his seventh set of fate dipper essences, he should have the ability to create a Fate Dipper Clone. However, reality played a cruel joke on him. Not only did he fail, he nearly suffered a serious backlash!

He was originally unwilling to believe that he would fail, and he tried several more times. Moreover, every time after that, he tried to create a clone with different properties. Unfortunately, he failed every single time.

After many failures, Shang Xia could feel the increased impact it had on him. He was starting to lose control over his inner qi and he could only forget about creating a clone.

From what he knew, after other Martial Dipper Realm experts entered their current cultivation realm and refined their second fate dipper, separating a Fate Dipper Clone wasn’t anything too difficult. Even if some of them couldn’t do it immediately, he never heard of anyone being injured because of it.

Who would have thought that Shang Xia would be the one to face the risks when it came time to create his clones?

To Shang Xia, it was quite a huge blow on his cultivation path in the Five Element Realm.

As he tried to calm down the rampaging Five Element Dipper Qi in his dantian, he started to reflect on his failure to create a Fate Dipper Clone. freewebnov el.com

Enlightenment seemed to descend upon him the next moment as a light flashed in his eyes. He had been trying to split off a Fate Dipper Clone with a single strand of his fate dipper essence. However, his path of cultivation was completely different from the others.

The Yin Yang attributes of the Five Elements resonated with each other, and he couldn’t lack a single one.

Compared to other Martial Dipper Realm experts, Shang Xia’s fate dippers should be closely linked together. That was precisely why splitting them off by element would only make it harder.

If he forced them apart, the Five Element Source in his dantian would be missing a core part, and thus affect his core strength.

Since that was the case... Would that mean that Shang Xia would be unable to create a clone unless he was truly in the large completion stage of the Five Element Realm?

The method he was using was completely opposite to the way of his martial path!

It wasn’t the first time the thought entered Shang Xia’s mind. When he refined his second set of fate dipper essences, he tried to create a clone. However, his attempt failed before he could see any results.

After that, he would give it a shot every time he refined a set of fate dipper essences. After failing many times in a row, he decided to shelve the idea.

He thought that he would have to wait till he refined ten sets of fate dipper essences, but he didn’t expect the turning point to come after the seventh set.

Recalling the properties of the various elements and their resonance, he decided to go all in. If he failed, he wouldn’t have to pay too big of a price anyway.

With a single thought, the Five Element Dipper Qi in his body started to undergo some sort of strange transformation.

Strands of energy that contained the yin and yang properties of the elements appeared as they started to intertwine to form a human-like figure.

He discovered that even though he separated a portion of his fate dipper essences, it didn’t really affect him too much.

One had to know that regardless of whether or not he succeeded, his cultivation realm would drop back to the time he only refined 6 sets of fate dipper essences. Only after the power contained in the fate dipper essences returned would his cultivation be restored. As such, he was already prepared for his control over the Stellar Cauldron to weaken after he successfully created the clone. Who would have thought that it didn’t actually weaken by much? He was able to forcefully maintain the terrifying speed of absorption even after the separation!

Heaving a sigh of relief, Shang Xia no longer bothered with the absorption rate for the time being. Instead, he placed most of his attention on the newly created clone.

This time, it was created with all 10 strands of fate dipper essences. It seemed to be sparkling with a five colored light and the beauty would cause anyone to miss the fact that it was nearly 80 percent similar to Shang Xia.

Shang Xia didn’t understand why he was able to create a Fate Dipper Clone even before he completed the refinement of 10 sets of fate dipper essences, but the physical body of the clone was complete and he couldn’t be bothered about the reason for now.

The clone could be said to be 70 percent complete, and the remaining 30 percent would come from his divine will. If he managed to imbue it with his divine will, it would truly become a clone. It would be able to split off from his true body and possess a strand of consciousness. When that happens, it would be able to make some decisions according to the situation.

Along with a sharp pain in his mind when he split off his divine will, Shang Xia frowned. However, by the time he opened his eyes again, the figure that was sparkling with five colors also opened his eyes to stare at Shang Xia.

“True body.” The clone bowed towards Shang Xia and started to circulate his inner qi. He started to familiarize himself with the control of his qi. The resplendent light that coated its body started to fade away and a young cultivator who looked really similar to Shang Xia stood before him.

“We’re one and the same. There’s no need for such formalities.” Shang Xia laughed while looking at the clone. He felt a trace of gratification washing over him.

Turning to look outside the Holy Land, his clone asked, “What do you need me to do?”

“You don’t have to personally appear to fight. You just need to do all you can to assist them.” Shang Xia laughed.

Nodding slightly, the clone muttered, “I need it.”

Tossing the Five Element Ring at his clone, Shang Xia roared with laughter. “Of course!”

With the divine weapon in hand, his clone started to circulate his Five Element Dipper Qi. The Five Element Ring trembled once, and it didn’t seem to show signs of rejection.

“Alright, I’ll be off!” With a slight bow, Shang Xia’s clone blurred as it passed through the entrance of the Yanlin Holy Land to enter the city.

At the moment, giant ships hovered above the city in all 4 directions. They maintained a set distance from the city, but from time to time, they would launch an attack.

The giant ship above the east of the city had 3 masts, and the phantom of a giant anchor would appear occasionally and smash at the city.

On the southern front, the giant ship seemed to be made of wood. An insane number of oars would appear on its side from time to time before rowing forward in a unified stroke. When that happened, the ship would smash directly into the city walls.

As for the ship on the west... It would release majestic flames as though it were an actual volcano!

Finally, on the north of the city, there was a multi-decked ship that would drift on the water from time to time and fly in the air occasionally. 3 massive poles could be seen on the highest deck of the ship and every time it closed in on the city, they would slam downwards.

...

The moment Shang Xia’s clone appeared in the city, he attracted Kou Chongxue’s attention.
