Splitting the Heavens-Chapter 1597: First Try

After entrusting Sun Haiwei with the care of the Star Devouring Silkworm larvae, Shang Xia hurriedly left the asteroid belt where their fleet was and rushed to meet the True Immortals of the 3 World Alliance around the heavenly screen of the Essence Ping World.

By the time Shang Xia arrived, the 7 True Immortals of the 3 World Alliance had already stabilized their positions in the void to produce their battle formation. He was the only one left.

"Am I late?" Shang Xia asked apologetically, his gaze briefly meeting Kou Chongxue's. They immediately reached a tacit understanding.

Zuo Li smiled in response. "It's fine, Zhuo Gudao has already taken the lead and the battle formations of the Spirit Mammoth World and the Star Origin Lord Manor have already entered. The Spirit Abundance World is still doing their own shit as per usual, but they sent a transmission about wanting to create a spatial tunnel into the Essence Ping World. They plan to launch a counterattack from the continents controlled by the World’s Will in order to obtain its recognition.”

Shang Xia’s eyes widened slightly and he gasped “Looks like the Spirit Abundance World is serious about integrating the World’s Will...”

In a solemn voice, Kou Chongxue added, “The Spirit Abundance World might be planning to do more than we thought. However... It’s not surprising. After all, the Essence Ping World had been hidden in the void around them. They have hundreds of years of experience dealing with the Frost Tide and they even established an Elysium to handle it. The Azure Island also managed to rise rapidly because of the world origin obtained during the Frost Tide, and compared to all of us, the Spirit Abundance World should be a lot more experienced.”

Shang Xia thought for a moment before asking, “Have we found where Xiong Xin is?”

True Immortal Shao interjected, "We've definitely been keeping an eye out for Xiong Xin. However... We failed to find traces of the grand completion stage True Immortal. He might be dealing with the weakened heavenly screen they just restored, but he might also have taken the lead to sneak into the Essence Ping World.”

Qu Guan continued, “That’s a possibility. Since Xiong Xin has already been sidelined by the various powers of his world, and even the Dajun Dynasty he’s part of don’t seem to listen to his opinions any longer, there’s nothing holding him back. He definitely wouldn’t give up on advancing to the Martial Emptiness Realm and infiltrating the Essence Ping World is one of the few opportunities he has to do so.”

Raising his head suddenly, Kou Chongxue mumbled, “It’s time for us to make our move. The Star Origin Guards are approaching with hundreds of people in their battle formation and they’ll definitely chide us for hanging back.”

Shang Xia also stared in the same direction. He saw the void solidifying in the distance in blocks as they formed a massive wall.

When the Star Origin Guards unleashed their grand battle formation, it resembled a massive fortress. It looked stupid and cumbersome, but it had the ability to push past anything under the Martial Emptiness Realm.

Well... That assumed that the opponent had charged up to them recklessly or that they were surrounded.

The Essence Ping World was also a great example. The heavenly screen wouldn’t move no matter what, and the Star Origin Guards could simply advance without fear of missing their target!

As their grand battle formation pushed forward slowly, Shang Xia noticed Tong Yutang, who was in command.

The fourth tier True Immortal hadn’t left the Star Origin Guards to join hands with the high-level True Immortals of the Star Origin Lord Manor.

Shang Xia also knew that the Star Robe he was wearing wasn’t the real Star Origin Lord Robe. There was only a single Star Origin Lord Robe, and the treasure that was made up of concentrated Star Devouring Silk was in his possession!

Well... The Star Robe Tong Yutang wore was also no stranger to Shang Xia. It was a temporary substitute. Even though it could replicate the uses of the Star Origin Lord Robe, it would soon lose its effects.

That was probably also why Tong Yutang rarely stayed with the Star Origin Guards and would frequently attack the Essence Ping World with the high-level True Immortals of the Star Origin Lord Manor. After all... His robe couldn’t be used much!

Since they started the operation, Tong Yutang clearly was in no mood to care about conserving the replica of the Star Origin Lord Robe.

After greeting Shang Xia, the battle formation of the 3 World Alliance started to push towards the heavenly screen of the Essence Ping World.

Turning away from the Star Origin Guards, Shang Xia followed behind Kou Chongxue and the others while raising his guard.

Even though he was prepared, the powerful spatial fluctuations that came from the intense battles in the distance quickly reached them. Shang Xia was pushed back slightly despite his strength and he quickly pulled away from the 3 World Alliance’s battle formation.

The spatial fluctuations might be intense and Shang Xia might be rapidly consolidating his domain in order to observe his strength, but he was still relatively safe. His powerful domain was far from collapsing.

Pushing his palms forward slightly, he unleashed Void Seal, stabilizing the space around him. No matter how much the spatial disturbance caused the void around to tear and wrinkle, they couldn’t encroach on the calm space around him.

Dealing with the annoyance, Shang Xia finally had the time to observe his surroundings. What he saw caused a deep frown to form on his face.

If not for the dire situation, he might have cursed Zhou Gudao and his 18 generations of ancestors.

Zhuo Gudao’s performance was disappointing.

In the gathering outside the Spirit Observation World, he confidently claimed to be able to handle 2 clones. He even declared that even if the clones merged to become a second star Martial Emptiness Realm expert, he would still be able to hold it back.

It was because of Zhuo Gudao’s assurance that the True Immortals of the Spirit Abundance World, Spirit Mammoth World, and the 3 World Alliance chose to cooperate with the Star Origin Dao Field to launch another round of offensive.

What Shang Xia was staring at was disgusting. Zhuo Gudao barely faced a single clone, and he barely managed to gain an upper hand. He barely managed to hold it back. More accurately the clone was holding Zhuo Gudao, their strongest combatant on their side, back!

With Zhuo Gudao being too damn useless, the Spirit Mammoth World’s battle formation might be formidable, but they wouldn’t be able to to prevent the fusion of 2 clones.

The second they merged, the clones could unleash the strength of a second star Martial Emptiness Realm Sage. Even with 7 high-level True Immortals making up the battle formation, the Spirit Mammoth World and their allies wouldn’t be able to do shit against their enemy.

As for the battle formation of the Star Origin Lord Manor... Because Tong Yutang left to handle the grand formation of the Star Origin Guards, their combat strength had also declined and they barely held a single clone back.

With the entry of the 3 World Alliance, they quickly chose to support the Spirit Mammoth World to prevent the fusion of the clones.

Before Zuo Li and the rest could join forces with the Spirit Mammoth World, a massive eruption of world origin came from the heavenly screen of the Essence Ping World. Soon after, another clone condensed to strike at their battle formation.

The fifth Star Origin Lord avatar appeared above the heavenly screen for the first time!
