Splitting the Heavens

… Back in the region of disrupted space, the situation within was revealed after the starlight dissipated.

Only Shang Xia, who was hundreds of thousands of miles away at the moment, had no clue what was happening yet.

However, he could vaguely feel that what happened within the region of disrupted space was related to the power of the stars he drew over earlier.

Shang Xia couldn’t be considered early when he arrived at the region of disrupted space, and he discovered many experts hidden in the void observing the battle when he arrived.

Due to the shroud of starlight around the region of distorted space when he arrived, he couldn’t tell who was fighting within. When he tried kiting Wen Juxiang around the region of distorted space earlier, he was trying to absorb the power of the stars with the Crimson Soul Tablet.

Maybe it was because he was too careful earlier, and the energy was too concentrated, but not too much changed despite his absorption.

During the battle between Shang Xia and Wen Juxiang, Wen Juxiang seemed to wish to end the battle quickly when Shang Xia was swallowed by the spatial current. In order to live, Shang Xia no longer held back and he took the risk of activating the Crimson Soul Tablet in his sea of consciousness. Along with its activation, it managed to draw on the power of the stars hundreds of thousands of miles away!

Since he didn’t hold anything back, the Crimson Soul Tablet’s abilities were pushed to the limits of what Shang Xia could utilize. It drew over the power of the stars, confirming Shang Xia’s guess. What happened in the prison beneath the Star Observatory in Star Origin City was probably not an illusion!

With the power of the stars, Shang Xia condensed a projection of half the Crimson Soul Tablet that stopped Wen Juxiang’s attack!

Even though it was only half, it was able to not only blow Wen Juxiang’s high-grade divine hammer away, it also caused great damage to it! The backlash also severely wounded the high-level True Immortal!

That was a projection of half the tablet!

Shang Xia wondered how powerful it would have been if he managed to create the projection of the entire tablet… Also… If he managed to go one step further and summon the tablet directly, he wondered how strong it would be.

Of course, it was still too soon to think about stuff like that. After all, creating a projection of half the tablet was already a stretch. Shang Xia couldn’t gather enough power of the stars to conjure a phantom of the tablet.

… The battle with Wen Juxiang was a mere interlude to what he planned to achieve by exploring the region of distorted space, but with the bamboo hat that had the ability to calm the space around him, he became a little more confident in succeeding in what he was about to do.

Actually, the operation he was planning to do only involved learning about the identity of both parties who were fighting and the reason behind the battle.

Gathering the power of the stars was also one of his objectives, but that was merely a side quest compared to what he wanted to do.

The spatial current that was created from the battle between Wen Juxiang and himself started to fade, but it was still pretty choppy. In the past, Shang Xia wouldn’t dare to take the risk of creating a spatial tunnel to rush back to the region of distorted space. However, he just obtained the bamboo hat and despite it being damaged, it would probably be enough to negate a lot of the risk related to his journey back.

As he made his way back, he didn’t run into any dangers. The only thing that changed was that the tattered bamboo hat looked a lot more worn out when he was done.

It was an impressive treasure, but Shang Xia found it a shame as he didn’t know how many more times he would be able to make use of it.

… His return attracted a lot of attention. After all, Wen Juxiang had been chasing him before, and those who noticed the hunt earlier saw that Wen Juxiang was a high-level True Immortal.

Although they couldn’t tell who Shang Xia was, they discovered his true cultivation realm during the battle earlier. A battle between a fourth tier True Immortal and a third tier True Immortal was extremely eye-catching.

The disturbance Shang Xia created when he summoned the projection of half the Crimson Soul Tablet was also massive.

The reappearance of the third tier True Immortal shocked the experts observing the battle. Since the higher-level expert didn’t reappear, that would mean that the weaker cultivator managed to gain victory over a stronger opponent, and it was difficult to not notice something like that!

Fortunately, Shang Xia concealed his appearance from start to end. They were able to tell his cultivation level, but they didn’t know who he was.

… After getting over their initial shock, everyone quickly turned their attention away. They could no longer be bothered with Shang Xia’s identity as those within the region of distorted space were revealed.

“It… It’s actually Liu Yunzi from the Spirit Mammoth World! That’s a talented third tier True Immortal…”

“That’s Luo Yizi, a second tier True Immortal from the Spirit Mammoth World too!”

“Wait… There’s actually another second tier True Immortal from the Spirit Tinkle World!”

“Hurry and look at that. It’s Xiong Chunyang, the Distant Exertion King from the Spirit Abundance World! He’s also a powerful third tier True Immortal!”

“None of them have a cultivation level below the second tier!”

“No… There’s another person there that seems unfamiliar. Which world is he from? Anyway, his cultivation at the first tier can’t be faked…”

“Haven’t you noticed?! The Star Robes on that first tier True Immortal is different from the others.”

“Star Robes?! They’re actually wearing Star Robes! However, the Star Robes they have on seem different from the Star Origin Guards. Only the Star Robes on the first tier True Immortal look real.”

“Hehehe… The first tier True Immortal should be the newly ascended True Immortal in the Star Origin Guards, Xing Xingtian! Obviously his Star Robes is real!”

“Would that mean that the other Star Robes are created through imitation?”

“Ssssss…. Things are getting complicated. From the looks of it, they’re using the battle formation of the Star Origin Guards, and the 5 True Immortals aren’t nameless nobodies from their worlds! Actually, any one of them there has the qualifications to represent their world…”

“Who the hell can they be teaming up against?”

Actually, the final question was the only thing they were concerned about.

“Oh yeah… Shouldn’t there be 7 people in the battle formation? Why are there only 6 of them?”

Everyone fell silent after hearing the sudden question. They turned to look at the only trace of starlight left in the battle, and the 2 people locked in combat should be the true experts. The second and third tier True Immortals who were revealed seemed to be mere helpers!

That would mean that there were 7 True Immortals who deployed the battle formation, and they were fighting a mysterious expert whose cultivation realm eclipsed them completely!

Who the hell can they be fighting?!

Who has the ability to challenge the battle formation created by 7 True Immortals whose cultivation realm averaged out in the second tier Martial Void Realm?

Even though everyone still seemed confused, Shang Xia seemed to already have an answer.
