Splitting the Heavens

Chapter 328: Holy Mother

In the space around the Tongyou Mysterious World…

Ancestor Yun Lu seemed to have reached some sort of silent agreement with the Martial Dipper Realm expert of the Bing Continent.

Ji Wenlong, the only person who had the ability to tangle with a Martial Dipper Realm expert, was held down by the expert in the southwest as Ancestor Yun Lu absorbed the world origin without restraint.

The Martial Extermination Realm experts of the institution didn’t remain idle as they tried to disrupt his attempt. Unfortunately, they couldn’t get past the defenses of Yang Hu and Wei Zhongwen.

There were many who tried asking the White Deer Paradise for an explanation, but Ancestor Yun Lu was too lazy to explain to them.

The spatial tunnel connecting the Tongyou Institution to the battlefield between the two worlds sealed up at that instant and their energy source stopped. At that moment, the Tongyou Institution became a massive pool of energy that had its source cut off.

The world origin contained within the Tongyou Mysterious World was being sucked up by Ancestor Yan Lu’s rose bridge at a terrifying rate, and there was no way they could restore their lost energy.

When Ancestor Yan Lu absorbed the world origin in the Tongyou Mysterious World, there were many experts who tried to profit from the Tongyou Institution’s misfortune.

Unfortunately for them, the experts of the Tongyou Institution were capable of stopping them. They might be useless against a Martial Dipper Realm expert, but they could stand their ground against those in the Martial Extermination Realm!

A subtle change happened in the Tongyou Mysterious World all of a sudden. Two figures shot out and charged towards Ancestor Yun Lu on the rose-colored bridge.

Without batting an eyelid, Ancestor Yun Lu stared directly at Kang Ci and Liu Qinglan who were flying at him.

After the spatial tunnel was sealed, the two of them finally freed themselves from those from the Azure Spiritual World. However, as the saying went, out of the frying pan, into the fire. Their next opponent was a Martial Dipper Realm ancestor from the White Deer Paradise. That was a peak-tier existence in the Azure Origin World!

Before they could even close in on Ancestor Yun Lu, they were easily intercepted by Yang Hu and Wei Zhongwen.

Wei Zhongwen and Yang Hu were third layer Martial Extermination Realm experts. Even if they were alone, they would be able to stop both Kang Ci and Liu Qinglan, much less when there were two of them.

The corners of Ancestor Yun Lu’s lips curled upwards and he no longer bothered with the two. He turned to stare at the gap in the protection barrier around the Tongyou Mysterious World and chuckled, “Interesting…”

As soon as the words left his lips, a change happened.

Another figure emerged from the Tongyou Mysterious World. He held a silver spear in his hand as heaven and earth qi gathered around him. They seemed to fuse with him as he unleashed his strongest attack against Ancestor Yun Lu.

“Shang Bo… You are definitely qualified to enter the Martial Dipper Realm in the future…” Ancestor Yun Lu sneered softly. “Too bad, only a single person can draw upon the strength of the Tongyou Mysterious World!”

Waving his hand casually, Ancestor Yun Lu shattered the spear light produced by Shang Bo. A grunt left Shang Bo’s lips as he was sent flying back into the Tongyou Mysterious World.

Even though Shang Bo had entered the large completion stage of the Martial Extermination Realm, he wasn’t strong enough to challenge a Martial Dipper Realm expert. If he was able to borrow the strength of the Tongyou Mysterious World like Ji Wenlong, he might have been able to fight with Ancestor Yun Lu.

Unfortunately, that wasn’t the case.

No matter how strong Shang Bo was when compared to other Martial Extermination Realm experts, they were merely ants before Ancestor Yun Lu.

There was also the matter of exhausting his strength. Shang Bo used up most of his inner qi during the fight in the battlefield between the two worlds. He barely returned to catch his breath, and he barely had enough energy to send out a single strike.

Of course, Shang Bo was no fool. He knew that he wasn’t a match for Ancestor Yun Lu. The only reason he sent out the strike earlier was to cover the other experts of the Tongyou Institution!

When Shang Bo was sent flying, a soft cry came from the depths of the mysterious world and it caused the rose bridge to tremble slightly.

Ancestor Yun Lu’s expression finally changed when he heard the sound. His gaze turned serious as he looked at the gap that connected the bridge to the Tongyou Mysterious World. Even so, the look that he was still in control of the situation didn’t fade from his eyes.

A small sword emerged from the Tongyou Mysterious World at that instant and it crossed the hundred feet gap in an instant. It shot towards Ancestor Yun Lu.

“Divine Weapon, Hidden Frost Sword!”

Ancestor Yun Lu gasped as he unleashed several palm strikes at the space before him. He created several layers of barriers with the heaven and earth qi in his surroundings.

When the Hidden Frost Sword arrived, It shattered a few layers before stopping.

“Hehe, too bad you’re not Kou Chongxue!” Ancestor Yun Lu burst out with mocking laughter. He stared at Yun Jing who was standing at the edge of the Tongyou Mysterious World as a sneer formed on his lips.

At the same time, the barriers around the Hidden Frost Sword solidified as they wrapped around the weapon.

“Who would have thought that you would be so kind as to give me a free Divine Weapon? Guess I won’t stand on ceremony then…”

Yun Jing’s expression changed drastically as she tried to recall the sword. Rays of light emerged from the sword as it tried to struggle free.

Ancestor Yun Lu expected her to do as much as he pressed down at the space in front of him to create a massive palm out of heaven and earth qi. It descended onto the Hidden Frost Sword and trapped it firmly in place.

From the looks of it, Ancestor Yun Lu seemed to have expected things to develop up to that point. In fact, it might have been a part of his plan in the first place.

Waving his hands again, thin strands of light emerged from the remnant pieces of the barrier that were shattered by the Hidden Frost Sword earlier and they wrapped themselves around it. In an instant, the Hidden Frost Sword was trapped securely in mid air.

…

In the Changfeng City, Uncle Cen and Fourth Brother Zeng led the remaining members of the Eighteen Horsemen to unleash an offensive on the experts from the City Lord Manor.

However, they were unable to defeat Qin Yuyuan and the other experts. Their battle formation was shattered quickly as they made their escape through the city. In an instant, half the city was thrown into chaos by their actions.

Perhaps, that was their plan all along.

After scattering, they ran in all directions to incite massive riots. The chaos that ensued caused those from the City Lord Manor to turn extremely busy as they tried to quell the unrest.

As the only other city in the You Continent that stood at the chokepoint of the You Continent and the Ji Continent, the Changfeng City possessed extremely strategic importance. The Tongyou Institution and the great clans of the Tongyou City had long since sent some of their men over either in disguise or through hidden means.

The Changfeng City might have been Yang Hu’s territory, and he managed to maintain a strong control over the city when he weeded out the spies of the Tongyou City previously. However, that didn’t stop them from sending more!

When he was around, he might have been able to suppress everyone against him with his personal strength. Now that he had left for the Tongyou City, no one could keep them in check.

Moreover, there were many citizens of the Changfeng City who had been enraged by his recent actions. They were merely forced to remain quiet due to his overwhelming strength. Due to Yang Hu’s cooperation with the White Deer Paradise, the City Lord Manor behaved in a tyrannical manner. They went about clearing out the hidden spies of the Tongyou Institution, causing much chaos in the city. Those who managed to survive the purge had a belly full of fire.

As soon as Uncle Cen and the others scattered, they lit the fuse of chaos. The spies who went into hiding revealed themselves and caused chaos in the city.

Of course, the unrest in the city might be extremely annoying to deal with, but they were far from enough to shake the foundations of the City Lord Manor.

The only thing that could affect the City Lord Manor was the battle that was going on within.

By that time, the gates to the City Lord Manor had been blown apart.

Youshang’s sneak attack allowed him to gain the advantage over Gao Yun, but the battle quickly evened out due to Gao Yun’s formation he laid down in the City Lord Manor.

Regardless, Youshang achieved his goal. All he needed to do was to keep Gao Yun in the City Lord Manor!

Facing the strange fighting style of Youshang, a cultivator of the Azure Spiritual World, Gao Yun didn’t dare to be careless as he controlled his formation personally to do battle.

There was no way a battle between Martial Extermination Realm experts could be hidden and the shockwaves soon swept through the city.

Who would have thought that neither of them would hold back? It even seemed as though they were intentionally increasing the intensity of the battle and the power contained in the shockwaves of their exchanges.

As a cultivator of the Azure Spiritual World who was allied to the Tongyou Institution, Youshang wouldn’t give a shit about the deaths of those in the Changfeng City.

Gao Yun was no different. He was in the You Continent to carry out the White Deer Paradise’s plan to steal the Tongyou Institution’s world essence. He couldn’t be bothered to keep the ordinary cultivators of the Changfeng City safe!

As the two of them fought with no restraints, they turned a quarter of the city center into rubble in the time it took a pot of tea to boil.

A terrifying fluctuation emerged from Gao Yun’s protection formation all of a sudden, and Youshang’s mocking laughter rang through the skies. “What’s the matter? Are you getting tired? Can’t you see that I’m trying to keep you from returning? From the look on your face, you probably discovered that the Spirit Cave down there is under attack. It’s too late for you to return now.”

“Who the hell are you? Why is a cultivator from the Azure Spiritual World helping the Tongyou Institution? Aren’t you guys enemies?”

Youshang chuckled without replying.

The frown on Gao Yun’s face soon transformed into a sneer. “Well, you seemed to have underestimated me. Even though I’m not too strong, the formation I laid down won’t be broken by some third rate trash!”

Youshang released another attack while Gao Yun was busy gloating and his attack smashed into the protection barrier around the man. Even though it looked like it was about to shatter, it managed to stay whole.

“How about it?” Gao Yun snorted in contempt. “Even though I don’t know how you managed to send your companion down where the Spirit Cave is, I hate to break it to you. Ancestor Yun Lu will return from the Tongyou City soon. When that happens, none of you are getting away!”

Youshang’s expression finally changed when he heard what Gao Yun said.
