Chapter 890: Changes and Assistance

To the experts of the Spirit Abundance World, they sent 5 Martial Void Realm experts with an average cultivation at the second tier of the Martial Void Realm. Of those they sent, the strongest was Dugu Yuanshan whose cultivation was at the third tier of the Martial Void Realm. Regardless of cultivation realm, or quantity of Martial Void Realm experts, the Spirit Abundance World held an undisputed advantage. Breaking through the heavenly screen of the Azure Ascension World was a matter of time.

With the experts they sent, even with the return of those experts who went to the Azure Flame World, they should be able to thoroughly suppress their opponents.

They might have brought forward their plan to invade the Azure Ascension World due to the sudden disappearance of those experts, but there was no way none of them would have taken precautions for any other unstable factor that might arise.

The experts of the Spirit Abundance World tried to overestimate the Azure Ascension World to the best of their abilities, but from what they were facing, it was clear they failed to make the proper calculations. They hadn’t fully taken into account the determination the experts of the Azure Ascension World had when it came to protecting their world.

According to the original estimates of the experts of the Spirit Abundance World, it would be easy for them to invade the Azure Ascension World with the forces they sent.

One of the reasons behind their estimations was the fact that Dugu Yuanshan, an expert at the third tier of the Martial Void Realm, would be in charge of destroying the Star Observatory and preventing the return of their experts.

Since he would only have to face the weakest Martial Void Realm expert of the Azure Ascension World, everyone thought that Dugu Yuanshan would be able to easily overpower his opponent and take charge of the situation.

Their estimates were way off when Dugu Yuanshan discovered the Starry Tree and started to play the game of attrition with Liu Jingsheng.

There was also the matter of Chong Xu and Jiang Guannan joining hands to fight Zhang Xuansheng.

During the battle in the sealed space 30,000 miles from the Beyond Heavens Pavilion, the experts of the Emptiness Drifting Mountain, Azure Island, and Solitary Peak Heavenly Lake already established that Zhang Xuansheng was the strongest Martial Void Realm expert in the Azure Ascension World.

Back then, Zhang Xuansheng’s cultivation realm was the same as Yang Taihe and Li Jidao! They were all in the first tier of the Martial Void Realm! They felt that he was still some way away from entering the second tier.

Even the strength he displayed back then, with Chong Xu and Jiang Guannan working together, they should be more than enough to suppress him even if he had the assistance of the World’s Will!

Reality slapped them in the face as Zhang Xuansheng burst forth with the cultivation base of an expert at the second tier of the Martial Void Realm. With the assistance of the World’s Will, his abilities had touched on the third tier of the Martial Void Realm. As such, he was more than enough to deal with the 2 of them.

How long has it been since the first invasion?!

How was it possible for him to enter the second tier of the Martial Void Realm in such a short amount of time?!

If cultivation in the Martial Void Realm was that easy, the Martial Void Realm experts in the Spirit Abundance World might as well consider themselves useless fools who were a waste of cultivation resources!

One of the reasons behind his sudden increase in strength was the fact that Zhang Xuansheng had been hiding his cultivation when they fought in the past, or he had a special method that allowed experts at the Martial Void Realm to cultivate quickly!

Of both possibilities, the first was the highest. However, if he truly had a way to cultivate quickly, it would greatly benefit those of the Spirit Abundance World.

Whatever it was, they were held back by him while the Azure Ascension World was completing its transformation.

In order to prevent the Azure Ascension World from transforming, the Martial Dipper Realm experts of the Spirit Abundance World had been breaking through their protective line and entering the Azure Ascension World. They planned to attack the various factions that were no longer protected by their experts in order to divert the focus of those experts. When that happened, the progress of the world ascension would also be affected.

That was the correct way of attacking a world. Only Martial Dipper Realm experts would be able to infiltrate and carry out the job.

With the current situation where the Martial Void Realm experts of the Azure Ascension World were locked in combat, the Martial Void Realm experts of the Spirit Abundance World could try to slow down the transformation of the world, but they wouldn’t take a single step through the heavenly screen.

The moment they tried, they would be suppressed so heavily by the World’s Will that their cultivations would drop and they would be easily slain by their opponents. That was also why the Martial Void Realm experts of the Azure Ascension World were able to fight back.

Of course, that didn’t mean that the Martial Void Realm experts of the Spirit Abundance World were useless. They were able to suppress their enemies and create an advantageous situation for their Martial Dipper Realm experts.

Even though the battle was still going strong up at the heavenly screen, the various continents had already been attacked by the Martial Dipper Realm experts of the Spirit Abundance World who entered.

If not for the fact that Kou Chongxue returned with the experts of the various factions and stabilized the emotions of those who were fighting above the heavenly screen, their defensive line would have already fallen and the Azure Ascension World might have already been completely taken over.

Shang Xia brought Chu Jia and the others, along with the unconscious Liu Qinglan up north. Along the way, they passed through the Jiao Continent before entering the Yu Continent.

The Yu Continent was the home base of the Great Observation Sect, and as a major power there, they were naturally targeted by the Martial Dipper Realm experts of the Spirit Abundance World.

Fortunately, the Great Observation Sect received their backup from the experts Kou Chongxue brought back. Along with its hundreds of years of foundation, it wasn’t a problem for them to hold off 2 third element Martial Dipper Realm experts.

“How are we going to get back?” Chu Jia asked.

After leaving the Jiao Continent, there was no need for the members of the institution to rely on flying to get around any longer.

Shang Xia had the Five Element Ring and his cultivation improved greatly. He could easily create spatial tunnels to greatly hasten their speed of travel. However, there was a huge distance to cover and he couldn’t possibly send them straight back to the Tongyou Institution. He would also exhaust a lot of energy doing so as he would have to open multiple spatial tunnels throughout the process.

Opening many spatial tunnels to send everyone back was the safest way, but there was actually another choice. He could bring everyone up to the Beyond Heavens Pavilion and kill his way back to the You Continent by getting rid of any obstructions in his way.

Even though the method seemed violent, the distance they would have to cover would be greatly shortened.

Shang Xia’s cultivation was extremely high at the moment, and his combat abilities were terrifying. As such, everyone was waiting for him to make the decision.

Pausing slightly, Shang Xia raised his head to look at the sky that was alternating between colors.

The experts of the Spirit Abundance World might not have completely shredded the heavenly screen, but they managed to cause considerable damage. The Azure Ascension World looked like it was experiencing the apocalypse at the moment.

“Looks like you already made your choice...” Sun Haiwei chuckled when she saw the direction Shang Xia was gazing in.

Chu Jia thought for a moment and added, “We’re fine either way. All of us can work together and deploy the battle formation to fight out enemies. Even though we can’t defeat an expert in the Martial Dipper Realm, protecting ourselves shouldn’t be too much of a problem. However, Instructor Liu is still unconscious...”

Shang Xia chuckled and muttered in a soft voice. “Relax. Unless we meet a supreme expert at the level of our patriarch, or the attack of an expert in the Sixth Order, no one will be able to stop us!”

Complicated gazes were thrown at him the moment he spoke.

From their impression of him, he would always put on a humble front everywhere he went despite his tyrannical abilities. Now that he was acting tough, it seemed a little unnatural and amusing to those around him.

Whatever it was, none of them had seen Shang Xia act with such confidence before.

“Have you... Have you lost your mind?” Chu Jia raised an eyebrow in shock. She was never one to be embarrassed to speak out against Shang Xia anyway.

Sun Haiwei chuckled at the side, “There’s no time to waste. Since you already decided, we should head up there and take a look at what’s happening!”

Shang Xia nodded and the Five Element Ring in his hand started to spin rapidly. The space contained in the ring shattered and formed a spatial vortex. Eventually, a spatial gate started to expand and form in front of them. However, snapping and crackling sounds rang in their ears the next moment.

A figure appeared on the other side of the spatial gate and reached for Shang Xia and the others.

An expert from the Spirit Abundance World discovered the formation of the spatial gate and decided to destroy it before anything else could happen, but it was a shame his luck wasn’t too good.

Shang Xia didn’t expect to run into an enemy the moment he opened the spatial gate, and he didn’t hold back at all. He sent a Five Element Palm straight through the spatial gate he opened.

The Five Element Palm naturally used the power of his Five Element Dipper Qi. It fused the power of the five elements into one and it was Shang Xia’s foundation to comprehend his martial intent in the future.

The expert of the Spirit Abundance World wasn’t weak at all. He was a third element Martial Dipper Realm expert and possessed considerable strength. However, the moment their attacks clashed, he felt his dipper qi being eroded away as the bones in his arm were blown out from his shoulders.

Holding the mangled mess of flesh in his other arm, the Martial Dipper Realm expert released a loud shriek. He retreated rapidly while revealing a sinister expression. Despite his twisted face, everyone could tell he was shocked by the sudden appearance of another expert.

Shang Xia’s expression didn’t change as he stepped through the spatial gate and arrived at the Beyond Heavens Pavilion. He saw Ancestor Fei Yun from the Great Observation Sect taking the chance to destroy one of the expert’s clones just as he emerged. The expert could had to flee with the heavy injuries he suffered.

Even after sacrificing a Fate Dipper Clone, the expert from the Spirit Abundance World realized that his arm wasn’t growing back! Shang Xia’s earlier strike seemed to damage the other party’s true body directly and sacrificing a clone wasn’t going to help him!

One could imagine what would happen to the expert from the Spirit Abundance World. Even if he managed to restore his cultivation to the third element of the Martial Dipper Realm, his combat strength would suffer a huge dip. Without an arm, he wouldn’t be comparable to experts of the same level!

Shang Xia’s appearance got rid of a massive headache for the Yu Continent directly. Ancestor Fei Yun cupped his hands to show his thanks as he flew in another direction to support the others.

Shang Xia stood in place as he protected the spatial gate behind him, waiting for the experts of the Tongyou Institution to catch up. As he was waiting, he glanced all around him and extended his divine will to observe his surroundings. His expression turned grave.

The next second, Chu Jia and the others passed through the spatial gate and arrived at the Beyond Heavens Pavilion.
