Splitting the Heavens

Chapter 319: Line of Defense Broken?

…

To experts in the Martial Extermination Realm, the eruption of the Origin Tide was both a crisis and a massive opportunity.

That was why no one raised strong objections to the Institution when they widened the spatial tunnel and drew in a terrifying amount of energy into the You Continent.

It wasn’t just an opportunity for those from the Azure Origin World. It was also a chance for those from the Azure Spiritual World!

If the Tongyou Institution was merely absorbing the world origin of the Azure Origin World, those from the Azure Spiritual World might not give a shit. At most, the Tongyou Institution’s actions could be considered embezzlement. However, now that they were sucking in the world origin from both worlds through the battlefield between the two worlds, they were affecting the other side too.

Absorbing the world origin of the Azure Origin World to strengthen themselves didn’t affect the big picture, but absorbing the world origin of the Azure Spiritual World while they were at it allowed them to weaken their enemy while making themselves stronger.

That was the basis of their plan when they pitched it to their allies. It was the reason the other four institutions sent their experts over to assist the Tongyou Institution in their efforts. It was also why the great powers of the various continents remained silent about the Tongyou Institution’s actions.

As a whole, the operation could be said to benefit the Azure Origin World at the expense of the Azure Spiritual World.

It went without saying that the experts of the Azure Spiritual World wouldn’t sit around and let the Tongyou Institution do as they wished. It was unfortunate the four great races of the Liao Continent were defeated in the battlefield between the two worlds and were suppressed by Yun Jing and Shang Bo after the Four Spiritual Peak toppled. They couldn’t react as quickly as they thought. They had to send various Martial Extermination Realm experts over to the battlefield between the two worlds to attack the spatial tunnel connecting the Tongyou Institution to the battlefield between the two worlds and they barely managed to gather enough experts at the last moment.

With Shang Bo paying the price of destroying his Nine Firefly Lance he had been using for a long time, he killed two Martial Extermination Realm experts from the other side. With his inner qi greatly exhausted, Shang Bo could only retreat. He messed with them while retreating, he could only delay the interference from those from the Azure Spiritual World as long as possible.

As he retreated, the Tongyou Peak that stood tall in the battlefield between the two worlds suffered the same fate as the Four Spiritual Peak. It was reduced to dust.

When Shang Bo moved back towards the Tongyou Institution, a loud cry came from the skies. The battle between the two divine weapons and their wielders caused countless fractures in the air above the Tongyou Peak, revealing the spatial barrier behind.

Along with a loud cry, a ray of light crashed into the ground beside Shang Bo who was closer to the spatial tunnel at that point. The revelation of the person who was defeated caused Shang Bo’s expression to change.

Yun Jing, who was wielding Kou Chongxue’s Hidden Frost Sword, was defeated!

There was no longer a trace of hesitation in Shang Bo’s heart. He turned to enter the spatial tunnel beside him.

He moved too decisively and suddenly. Before those fighting him could react, he entered the spatial tunnel. None of them managed to obstruct him in the slightest.

The moment he entered the spatial barrier, a spatial tear appeared in the place he once stood.

“What are you waiting for?! The Origin Tide is happening as we speak! Charge!”

“That’s right! We’ll head in there right now and destroy the newly formed mysterious world!”

“Aren’t you afraid that it’s a trap?”

“The spatial tunnel…”

“Shit! The Tongyou Institution is closing the spatial tunnel. They’re trying to destroy the connection to the Origin Tide!”

“Hurry up!”

…

When Shang Bo and Yun Jing held the cultivators of the Azure Spiritual World back, the battle around the Tongyou City had already reached its climax.

In the air above the Tongyou Mysterious World, two Martial Extermination Realm experts would be stationed there in case anything went wrong. Moreover, they would be there to grab any treasures produced by the formation of the mysterious world.

Since the start of the battle, those guarding the Tongyou Mysterious World had rotated once.

An Baimei and Liu Zhiyuan were the two luckiest ones who managed to obtain a strand of loose extermination origin each. Those who were slightly unluckier obtained high grade herbs or treasures!

As for those with garbage luck, they could thank whatever gods there were as none of the treasures produced by the formation of the Tongyou Mysterious World were below the fourth grade.

Someone outside the city yelled suddenly, “Look, the spatial tunnel is closing up! They’re ending the connection with the Origin Tide!”

“Everyone, we have to risk it all now. Everyone who comes here has their own plan. There’s no need to hold back any longer. Otherwise, we’ll miss the chance!”

No one knew who yelled, but Shang Ke’s opponent seemed to respond to the call instantly. A terrifying surge of energy pushed Shang Ke away as a frosty light froze the space around them.

Shang Ke could only release his extermination origin in a desperate attempt to protect himself. However, he was too weak compared to the other party. He retreated again and again, and he was forced back into the city. With the help of the protection formation, he finally managed to catch his breath. He forced the icy qi out from his body immediately to prevent leaving behind hidden injuries.

However, he had to quickly jump back into battle as his opponent drew close to the city.

“Frost Jade Palm… Looks like Mister Zhang Luofei of the Ji Continent has arrived. Forgive me for my disrespect, but fuck you!” Shang Ke entered the Martial Extermination Realm not too long ago and barely managed to solidify his foundations. He hadn’t mastered any martial arts suitable for his current cultivation level and other than his extermination origin, all he could fight his opponents with were the five moves he created when comprehending the Providence Spear Art in the Martial Intent Realm.

Even though he couldn’t be considered weak, he was definitely at a disadvantage when compared to those experienced experts who had been in the Martial Extermination Realm for a longer time.

When Shang Ke engaged his enemy this time, he no longer tried to defeat his opponent. Instead, he focused on defense and dragging out the battle as long as possible. He was suppressed heavily by his opponent, but he had no choice but to fight on bravely.

After Zhang Luofei revealed himself, the Martial Extermination Realm experts who came to attack the city started utilizing their signature moves. Their identities were revealed one by one.

“Guo Baofeng, you old bastard!”

“Huh? I heard of this move before. Are you the Taihang Swordsman, Yu Hanglong?”

“Fourth Lady of the Liu Family… Well met.”

“Are you the Harmonious River Master? Who would have thought that Mister Ye would come too… Welcome…”

“...” Those who came seemed to have a resounding reputation in the Azure Origin World. The moment they started using their signature moves, it wasn’t difficult to recognize them.

“Oh shit!” Wei Zhongwen from the White Deer Paradise yelled suddenly.

Liu Zhiyuan looked over when he yelled and saw a second Martial Extermination Realm expert appear behind Yang Hu. Yang Hu was locked in combat with Wei Zhongwen earlier, but with the appearance of a new enemy, Wei Zhongwen seemed to fall to a disadvantage immediately. He seemed to be struck by a sneak attack from the newcomer and he slammed heavily into the barrier.

Trembling violently, the barrier seemed to have reached its limits as it started to crack.

Yang Hu roared as a huge blade appeared in the air to slash down at Wei Zhongwen. From the looks of it, Yang Hu wanted to send his enemy to the depths of hell.

At the critical moment, Wei Zhongwen felt something tightening around his waist before he was pulled towards the Tongyou Mysterious World. Liu Zhiyuan dragged him back just in time as Yang Hu’s blade slammed heavily into the protection barrier.

No longer able to withstand the attacks, the protection barrier around the Tongyou City disappeared.

…

In the Thousand Leaf Mountain Range…

Not too long after he left, Shang Xia heard a long chirp from high above.

He paused slightly and heard a soft whisper coming from the woods beside him. “Looks like you managed to deal with it yourself. Heh. I’m afraid I need to trouble you to follow me this time.”

Shang Xia turned around abruptly and saw a familiar figure standing several feet away from him.

“It’s you!” A multitude of thoughts flashed through Shang Xia’s mind, but he quickly replied. “Senior, didn’t you return to the Azure Spiritual World?”

Ignoring Shang Xia completely, the mysterious figure stretched his hand out and spoke. “Don’t you have the Multi World Anchoring Flag? Lend it to me.”
