Splitting the Heavens-Chapter 984: The 1000 Year Conspiracy of the Spirit Abundance World

Actually, he was able to hide his true cultivation realm with the Illusion Talisman and he could also disguise his aura with his Five Element Origin to avoid being detected by the world. He even managed to fool True Immortal Tang Yu with his disguise in the Heavenly Lake Elysium. However... He couldn’t do the same to Zhao Wuhen!

His Five Element Origin was just too special and Zhao Wuhen’s impression of it was too deep!

Shang Xia didn’t think that he would be so unlucky and run into Zhao Wuhen of all people. However... After thinking about it, the Northern Region was dominated by the Azure Island where Zhao Wuhen originated from. He weighed the risks back then and tried to suppress his desire to obtain treasures during the Frost Wave, but he failed to resist the urge to obtain the Spirituality of the North in the end.

It was too late for regrets and Shang Xia knew that the most important thing he had to do was to get rid of the True Immortal in pursuit.

He might have easily passed through the heavenly screen by creating an opening like he did back then, but that didn’t mean that the experts of the Spirit Abundance World would be unable to discover him. As long as they were close enough, they would be able to notice him!

When he arrived above the heavenly screen, Shang Xia’s divine will noticed several experts patrolling the region and they were rushing to surround him.

Despite arriving outside the heavenly screen, Shang Xia wasn’t in a rush to run into the depths of the sea of stars. Instead, he concealed his aura once again before storing energy in his dantian. At the same time, his divine will also enveloped his surroundings to look for any traces of life.

In several breaths of time, a spatial gate formed several thousand feet from where he stood. A majestic aura accompanied a middle-aged man in white robes as he arrived above the heavenly screen.

Indeed... It’s just an ordinary projection!

Shang Xia rejoiced in his heart as a trace of excitement started to form.

Even though it had only been a few breaths of time, it was more than enough for Shang Xia to retrieve the stone rod from his ear.

When Zhao Wuhen discovered Shang Xia in the Northern Region earlier, only his divine soul had arrived. Even though it was able to disrupt space, it wasn’t able to affect Shang Xia’s Five Element Space and even allowed him to escape the Spirit Abundance World!

He might be surprised by Shang Xia’s ability, but it also gave him a better understanding of who he was dealing with.

As Zhao Wuhen had been recuperating in the Azure Island since he returned, he didn’t know anything that happened in the Heavenly Lake Elysium! Moreover, he wasn’t willing to send his true body out to deal with Shang Xia and he felt that a projection should be enough to handle the situation.

The instant his projection appeared outside the heavenly screen, a massive phantom of a giant rod came crashing down on him. A look of fright could be seen on his face as he gasped in shock, “Holy Artifact?!”

That wasn’t just any Holy Artifact! It was one that had been fully refined by the other party! Even in the hands of a Martial Dipper Realm cultivator, it was able to draw on the power of the world!

Not to mention the person wielding it was no ordinary Martial Dipper Realm expert...

The phantom of the giant rod that spanned tens of miles long came crashing down. A majestic aura of heaven and earth burst forth above the heavenly screen. Powerful gales that were formed from dipper qi swept in all directions and the 2 patrol teams that were rushing to surround Shang Xia turned tail and ran.

The rod hadn’t fully descended when a giant dent was forced into the heavenly screen. The dent reflected the shape of the rod and it stretched all the way from Shang Xia to Zhao Wuhen.

Zhao Wuhen, who barely stepped out from his spatial gate, couldn’t react in time!

Rumble...

A dull blast rang above the heavenly screen of the Spirit Abundance World and god knew how many existences were alarmed by it.

Powerful streams of green light emerged at the very last second as Zhao Wuhen’s projection made a last-ditch attempt to protect himself. Facing the powerful strike from the stone rod, the green light scattered in all directions.

When it finally came crashing down, a tear tens of miles long was created in the heavenly screen.

Cultivators who resided in the Northern Region of the Spirit Abundance World were alarmed by the changes happening above and when they raised their heads to look, they saw a massive rift nearly a thousand miles long! The shadow of a giant rod slowly retracted from the gap in the heavens.

Shang Xia, who unleashed the extremely powerful strike, disappeared without a trace as soon as the blow landed.

The void that was heavily disrupted due to the use of a Holy Artifact, along with the rapidly escaping world origin from the tear in the heavenly screen, disrupted the sense of True Immortal Chong Shan who arrived the moment Zhao Wuhen’s projection was scattered. He was unable to catch a trace of Shang Xia’s presence after that.

A moment later, a powerful sword qi tore through the void and another True Immortal’s projection stepped out from the void. The projection stared at True Immortal Chong Shan who was recovering the green light that dispersed everywhere before muttering in slight shock, “When did Zhao Wuhen regress to such a sorry state?”

Grunting once, True Immortal Chong Shan sighed, “The portion of his divine soul in his projection had been wiped away by a strange energy. It’s no longer possible to recover a portion of the Void Origin he lost...”

The True Immortal who arrived grunted, “Who did it?” He quickly felt the remnant aura of the Holy Artifact, and raised an eyebrow in shock, “Is that the person from the Heavenly Lake Elysium?”

“Probably... He not only stole the Heaven Supporting Jade Pillar, but from the looks of it, he seems to have already fully refined it. He was even able to draw on the power of the world when attacking. True Immortal Zhao was already injured in the past, and now...” True Immortal Chong Shan muttered.

Back then, True Immortal Chong Shan left a trace of his Void Origin and divine soul in his disciple, Shan Yunchao. However, it remained in a dormant state. As Shang Xia was shrouded in layers of concealment, True Immortal Chong Shan was unable to discover his real identity.

“I’m afraid his injuries are only going to become more serious!” Another void came from above the heavenly screen again. A figure that was clad in green appeared beside the True Immortal who was covered in a layer of sword light after making his appearance earlier. The person who spoke sounded to be rejoicing in Zhao Wuhen’s misfortune.

“I have already sent experts with the Aura Seeking Mirror to the Yuanhu Earth Star’s transfer platform. Anyone who wishes to head to the Star Origin City will be identified by it!” True Immortal Su Kun’s projection also arrived above the heavenly screen at that moment. Her gaze landed on the True Immortals who arrived before her. “True Immortal Hua and True Immortal Zhu... Greetings!”

Hua Jianlou was one of the True Immortals from the Spirit Infusion Sword Sect, one of the 9 great powers of the Spirit Abundance World.

Zhu Qingyi was an expert from the Rainbow Pagoda, also one of the 9 great powers of the Spirit Abundance World.

True Immortal Chong Shan tried his best to collect Zhao Wuhen’s Void Origin, but according to his estimates, a good half of it was irrecoverable. With the divine soul that had been wiped out, Zhu Qingyi was right. Zhao Wuhen was most likely going to suffer even heavier injuries.

Speaking of the devil...

A ray of green light emerged and Zhao Wuhen arrived with a face full of fury. His expression was downcast as he stared at the True Immortals who arrived.

“Why haven’t you guys personally gone after the person who stole the Heaven Supporting Jade Pillar?” Zhao Wuhen asked. He clearly heard their conversation from before, and he turned to thank True Immortal Chong Shan who recovered as much of his Void Origin as possible. From the amount that was recovered, Zhao Wuhen felt that it would be lucky if a quarter of the Void Origin he provided to the projection could be restored.

His words instantly enraged Zhu Qingyi of the Rainbow Pagoda. A sneer quickly left his lips. “Your Azure Island fucked around with the Frost Wave outside the heavenly screen and caused a bunch of chaos on our world. You even caused so many projections to be sent over. Who the hell has the time to care about your fuckups?”

Zhao Wuhen burst with rage the instant the words left Zhu Qingyi’s lips. “The Frost Wave concerns... Do you think my Azure Island is the one messing with things here? Do you think I’m responsible for the person who stole the Heaven Supporting Jade Pillar?”

Zhao Wuhen seemed utterly enraged, but when he spoke about matters regarding the Frost Wave, he seemed to regain a bit of clarity and he didn’t blurt out the truth.

Zhu Qingyi maintained the sneer on his face as he continued, “My Rainbow Pagoda isn’t interested in the Frost Wave. At the very least, we’re not interested in it yet. Your Azure Island has always been the one to meddle with that. As for the matter regarding the Heaven Supporting Jade Pillar. You guys should at least be worried about it!”

Of the 9 great powers of the Spirit Abundance World, the Emptiness Drifting Mountain, Azure Island, and Solitary Peak Heavenly Lake had the greatest relationship with each other. The Rainbow Pagoda followed the Dajun Dynasty blindly. As for the Heaven Embroidery Palace, they seemed to be pretty close with the True Immortal who ‘took control’ of the Solitary Peak Heavenly Lake. However, because of matters regarding the Heaven Supporting Jade Pillar, True Immortal Tang Yu was showing signs of turning against the Heaven Embroidery Palace.

Seeing as things were getting tense, True Immortal Chong Shan quickly interrupted, “The Frost Wave concerns the safety of our Spirit Abundance World, and the Azure Island’s actions are recognized by all of us... I believe Pagoda Master Zhu can’t deny that. As for matters regarding the Heaven Supporting Jade Pillar, True Immortal Su already sent our experts over to the Yuanhu Earth Star. It’s a matter of time before that person reveals himself.

The next second, Zhao Wuhen growled, “What do you guys know?! The bastard who stole the Heaven Supporting Jade Pillar came from the Spirit Luxuriant World! He’s Kou Chongxue’s successor... No... He’s an expert with even greater talent than Kou Chongxue! This is their revenge! Dugu Yuanshan’s death in the Spirit Luxuriant World was caused by them and the mission to infiltrate the Solitary Peak Heavenly Lake was most likely planned a long time ago!”

“WHAT?!” The projections of the True Immortals who arrived yelled in shock. With the exception of Zhao Wuhen, none of them took part in the second invasion of the Spirit Luxuriant World. However, that didn’t mean they didn’t know anything about it. The expedition against the Spirit Luxuriant World was of great importance in the Spirit Abundance World. High-level experts of the Spirit Abundance World had been keeping tabs on the experts of the Spirit Luxuriant World.

From what all of them knew, Kou Chongxue was publicly recognized as the expert in the Spirit Luxuriant World who had the greatest potential! At the same time, his combat abilities were also seen as the strongest among the experts of the Spirit Luxuriant World even though he just entered the Martial Void Realm.

As for Shang Xia... The high-level experts of the Spirit Abundance World heard of him and he had already entered their radar. It was especially so during the second invasion where Lu Pingyuan was forced to escape because he suffered critical injuries while Zhao Wuhen also suffered heavy injuries. Both their plights were related to Shang Xia in one way or another!

Now that Zhao Wuhen confirmed the identity of the thief who stole the Heaven Supporting Jade Pillar, everyone’s attention turned to the Martial Dipper Realm junior of the Spirit Luxuriant World.

Zhu Qingyi didn’t forget to chide Zhao Wuhen. “Why didn’t you say so earlier?! This is such an important piece of news!”

Looking at the panicked looks on the faces of the various projections, Zhao Wuhen suddenly felt a lot better about himself. However, he sneered, “When did you guys give me a chance to speak?!”

“Enough! What are we going to do now? Should we personally give chase?” Hua Jianlou grunted suddenly. Naturally, Hua Jialou was speaking to the 5 projections who had gathered.

The suggestion was immediately shot down by True Immortal Su Kun. “Forget it. It’s too late now. The Frost Wave will only increase in intensity soon and we will need to stay in our Elysiums to resist the pressure. After all, the bulk of our forces are concentrated on the expedition to the Azure Oddity World. We can’t make any more mistakes.”

Pausing slightly, True Immortal Su Kun muttered, “After battling the Frost Wave for more than a thousand years, we barely managed to gain an advantage over them. It’s the best opportunity for our world to ascend and we cannot mess up in the slightest! Otherwise... I believe all of you understand the implications.”

The 9 great powers of the Spirit Abundance World already had an agreement regarding the Frost Wave, but she couldn’t help but emphasize the importance of such an event again.

Right before the projections left, Zhu Qingyi asked suddenly, “How are things with that person in the Heavenly Lake Elysium? Nothing should go wrong, right?”

True Immortal Su Kun’s chilly voice rang in everyone’s ears the next moment. “Unless she wants herself to become a Heaven Supporting Jade Pillar, otherwise, she will probably take the big picture into account...”

“That’s good...”

...

As the True Immortals from the various factions sent their disciples to the Yuanhu Earth Star to wait for Shang Xia, they didn’t know that he had no intentions of returning to the Star Origin City. He flew into the depths of the sea of stars in a completely different direction.

Shang Xia wasn’t messing around. In fact, it was one of the plans he and Huang Yu came up with to retreat!

They wouldn’t return to the city. Instead, they would take the chance to head over to the Azure Oddity World!

The only slight disturbance along the way was that as Shang Xia traveled tens of thousands of miles away from the heavenly screen, the Crimson Soul Tablet started to react to something else.

When Shang Xia turned to look in the direction of the Spirit Abundance World, he noticed 9 massive vortexes above the heavenly screen.

After gaining a certain understanding of the Spirit Abundance World, Shang Xia could tell that the 9 vortexes corresponded to the locations of the 9 great powers of the Spirit Abundance World.

The 9 great powers of the Spirit Abundance World seem to have constructed a massive formation with the core of the Spirit Abundance World as their support... They should be facing something...

Shifting his gaze over to where the Crimson Soul Tablet indicated, Shang Xia realized that he was staring straight at the northernmost point of the Spirit Abundance World!

“Could it be the Frost Wave that originated from the sea of stars...”
