Splitting the Heavens

Shang Xia looked at him in shock. “True Immortal Song, why is that?”

Song Zhen put on a solemn but earnest expression as he explained, “The first reason for my request is because my injuries are healed. The second is because I’m not one to stay in a place for long. Life is too boring in the other Star Beast Nest. Moreover, I’m not a member of your Spirit Luxuriant World, and rather than wasting my energy to integrate myself, I would rather spend more time helping you and your faction with other tasks…”

Shang Xia didn’t know how to respond to his request for the time being.

Song Zhen was a second tier Free True Immortal, and if he could be integrated into the Tongyou Institution, even with the suppression of the World’s Will, he would be able to bring them up to new heights in terms of collective strength.

What’s more… The focus of the various worlds in the Heaven Observation Field has turned to the Essence Ping World. The balance of power between the different alliances might be broken at any time and a second tier True Immortal was valuable fighting strength!

Also, as Song Zhen said… As a Star Pirate who had operated in the Chaotic Sea of Stars, he would be most useful when sent out to other places.

Thinking long term, with the Star Curtain about to crumble, sending Song Zhen, their important chess piece out, not only could allow the Tongyou Institution and the Spirit Luxuriant World to gain a better understanding of the sea of stars outside the Heaven Observation Field. It would prove greatly beneficial for all of them.

Song Zhen also understood that his actions were under Shang Xia’s control. Even though his suggestion was reasonable, he could only follow Shang Xia’s decision.

A moment later, Shang Xia seemed to have made up his mind and mumbled, “Do you know what will happen when you return to the Chaotic Sea of Stars? I’ll tell you right now… You won’t be bringing the Spirit World Ark back.”

A look of joy flashed across Song Zhen’s face when he heard that there was hope for his return to the Chaotic Sea of Stars and he nodded quickly. “I understand. If I reappear in the Chaotic Sea of Stars now, the Piercing Cloud Bandits will most likely discover my return immediately and I will be hunted by them.”

Shang Xia shook his head and sighed, “I’m afraid it wouldn’t just be the Piercing Cloud Bandits. This is a Spirit World Ark we’re talking about. A Spirit World fragment is already a treasure for which many Star Pirate groups will go to war. What’s more, you even have information on the Heaven Observation Field now…”

Song Zhen couldn’t help but force a chuckle.

Shang Xia continued, “Even so… Do you still wish to return to the Chaotic Sea of Stars?”

Even though he looked uncertain for a second and seemed to be weighing the risks, he eventually nodded after some hesitation. “Yes, I am sure.”

Shang Xia knew that his mind was set and he asked, “How do you plan to return to the Chaotic Sea of Stars? Are you going through the Essence Ming World or Essence Xing World?”

The Spirit Luxuriant World didn’t possess a spatial tunnel that led to the Chaotic Sea of Stars, but they had the Star Beast Nests. They could send Song Zhen to either the Essence Xing World or the Essence Ming World for him to return.

Both Essence Worlds definitely had a spatial tunnel that led to the Chaotic Sea of Stars. The only thing Shang Xia was afraid of was that with the control those worlds had over those spatial tunnels, Song Zhen’s identity might be discovered when he made his way back.

Song Zhen seemed to have his considerations and he stated with certainty, “I will leave from the Essence Ming World!”

“Hm?” Slightly taken aback, Shang Xia asked, “Why?”

It would be fine if he left successfully, but if he was discovered by Essence Ming World… They probably wouldn’t need to take him in for questioning for a lot of information to be revealed the moment a Star Pirate from the Essence Xing World appeared in the Essence Ming World…

Song Zhen replied honestly, “Lord, do you remember the Star Chart you obtained from the Dark Star Pirate?”

Shang Xia nodded slowly. “What’s the matter? Are you planning to make use of that route to leave? Do you need me to lend you the token from the Dark Star Pirate?”

Waving his hands, Song Zhen laughed, “The Dark Star Pirate who was killed was a second tier True Immortal. Moreover, the Dark Star Pirates are backed by a terrifying force and they most definitely have an existence at the Martial Emptiness Realm among them. The person you killed is most definitely not a nameless nobody either. The token might be able to scare some small fries along my way, but if I really expose its existence, I’m afraid they will start to hunt me down immediately!”

“As for the way to leave… Every world has strict control over the region of space around it, but as long as they don’t completely seal off the entire region, there will be ways to leave sneakily. There will definitely be smugglers who specialize in it too… As long as I manage to find them, leaving the Essence Ming World’s Heavenly Field shouldn’t prove to be a problem!”

“Oh? Smuggling?” Shang Xia seemed to fall deep into thought as he mumbled to himself.

Seeing Shang Xia hesitating, Song Zhen quickly continued, “Lord, please rest assured. There’s a solution for every problem… When the time comes, all I have to do is to change my appearance. It won’t be too difficult to find those people…”

“Changing your appearance doesn’t mean that you changed your aura. You won’t be able to hide the mark of the Piercing Cloud Bandits on you either. If I let you go like this, won’t I just be sending you to your death?” Shang Xia mumbled with raised eyebrows.

Under Song Zhen’s dumbfounded gaze, Shang Xia waved and several talismans that were covered in spiritual light landed on him.

From the shock on his face, it was evident that those talismans were of an extremely high grade. They were at least rank six talismans!

Even in the Chaotic Sea of Stars, rank six talismans were rarely seen. Every single rank six talisman was a treasure that was hidden as trump cards by every capable True Immortal.

Song Zhen, with his dozens of years of experience, hadn’t seen more than 3 rank six talismans. There were actually 5 of them hovering before him at the moment!

He might know that Shang Xia was a Talisman Grandmaster, but he never imagined he would be bestowed 5 rank six talismans with a simple wave of a hand! A trace of gratitude that he hadn't felt in a long time filled his heart.

It was then that Shang Xia pointed at the talismans to introduce, “ 2 of them are Six Harmony Teleportation Talismans, and it is able to ignore spatial barriers. Even an Elysium or the heavenly screen cannot stand in your way. Of course, that will affect the distance, but if you use it in the void, you should be able to travel a million miles or so.”

“This…” Song Zhen’s eyes widened in shock.

As a Star Pirate, how could he not understand the worth of those talismans?

When Shang Xia introduced the effects, he had already estimated the value of those talismans dozens of times over.

“... There’s also an Illusion Talisman. Not only can it transform your aura, it can also hide your cultivation realm. You can use it to show the aura of any cultivator below the fourth tier of the Martial Void Realm without being discovered.”

“As for that talisman… It’s the Abyss Prison Emptiness Talisman. The last is a True Space Restriction Palm Talisman…”

Song Zhen waved his hands in fright and interrupted Shang Xia, “Lord, what do you require me to do in the Chaotic Sea of Stars? I will do my best no matter what it is!”

“Oh…” Shang Xia glanced at Song Zhen and snapped back to reality from introducing the talismans. He quickly stated, “There are 3 main tasks you need to do. The first is to establish a Star Pirate group, while ensuring your safety. The second is to look for information in the Chaotic Sea of Stars about the Spirit Mammoth World and Spirit Abundance World. Also, pay attention to the situation about the Essence Xing World. The third and last thing you need to do is to join in the plundering of other worlds as much as possible. When you do so, take note of the 3 Holy Artifacts of any Elysiums. If you know where any of them are, try your best to get your hands on them. I’ll compensate you for any losses you might suffer because of that.”
