Chapter 986: Too Fucking Confusing!

Seeing as Shang Xia wasn’t interested in the news he brought back and was playing with the stone rod in his hand that shone with the luster of jade, he couldn’t help but snap, “Didn’t you already fully refine the treasure? Why the hell are you staring at it all day?”

Shang Xia finally raised his head to look at Huang Yu. “I’m communicating with its Artifact Spirit. It will be of great help when I try to unleash most of its might in the future. After all, I haven’t reached the Martial Void Realm...”

Pressing his lips together, Huang Yu snorted, “So... What have you guys been talking about?”

Glancing at Huang Yu again, Shang Xia snorted, “It says it doesn’t like you!”

With his eyes widening in shock and his lips twitching slightly, Huang Yu growled, “Fuck! That’s a load of bullshit.”

At the same time, the rod started to shrink in Shang Xia’s palm. Only when it became small enough to put in his ear did Shang Xia keep it well. “Actually, this is something Patriarch Kou taught me. After all, he refined the Stellar Cauldron before entering the Martial Void Realm back then.”

Without a change in expression, Huang Yu snorted, “Yeah, yeah, there’s no need to listen to that old fart for everything...”

With a frown forming on his face, Shang Xia couldn’t help but mumble, “You seem to have some sort of grudge with the patriarch... You shouldn’t speak so disrespectfully about him in the future, especially when you return to the You Continent in the future!”

As soon as the words left Shang Xia’s lips, Huang Yu’s expression sank. He growled with a trace of dissatisfaction, “Damn kid, what do you know? Do you know what that sinister old bastard did back then?!”

“What did he do?” Shang Xia asked.

Taken aback by Shang Xia’s sudden question, Huang Yu grunted once before replying, “That’s something between the 2 of us a long time ago. Hmph, there’s no need to tell a kid like you stories of the past!”

After he was done, he still seemed extremely unresigned. He couldn’t help but mutter, “Anyway... Don’t listen to him blindly in the future! You should develop your own views and stick to them!”

Shang Xia could tell that Huang Yu was sincerely giving him advice and he sighed, “Relax, I know what to do and I know what I’m doing...”

“That would be for the best...” Huang Yu nodded. Finally, his expression loosened up and he chuckled, “Right, about that sinister old fuc... I mean... Did that old fellow come to the Azure Oddity World?”

Raising an eyebrow, Shang Xia wondered out loud, “How is he supposed to come? He probably doesn\'t even know where the Azure Oddity World is! Even if the experts of other worlds know the location of the Azure Oddity World, they won’t tell him! Also, even though we ascended to a Spirit World, the threat of the Spirit Abundance World is still present. I don’t think it would be easy for him to leave...”

“Don’t use your ordinary sense of reasoning to deduce Kou Chongxue’s actions!” Huang Yu shook his head at Shang Xia’s analysis. “If someone like you can guess what he’s doing, he wouldn’t have lived till now... That old man might just be hiding in some stupid corner over here watching the world burn... He’s probably going to pop out at the last moment and give everyone a huge surprise. Don’t you know? The Triple Frost of the You Continent got their name from being assassins. Can you imagine Kou Chongxue as an assassin?”

Shang Xia couldn’t keep up with whatever Huang Yu was saying. By the time he reacted, a strange scene with Kou Chongxue hiding in a corner and jumping out to kill his enemies ruthlessly played out in Shang Xia’s mind. He couldn’t help but feel a trace of lingering fear when he thought about it.”

Shaking the disturbing scene out of his mind, Shang Xia muttered, “Well... Patriarch Kou isn’t that old...”

“Oh? Do you know how old he is?” Huang Yu sneered in response.

Seeing Shang Xia’s speechless face, Huang Yu laughed coldly, “I’m afraid he’s much older than your grandpa...”

Finally, Shang Xia had enough of talking about Kou Chongxue. He forcefully changed the topic, “Right, what’s going to happen to your wife and child that you left in the Spirit Abundance World?! Are you going to think of a way to get them out after the matter with the Azure Oddity World?”

Huang Yu shook his head slowly. “There’s no need. I already made preparations for them and she’s someone from the Lou Family to begin with. She’s also a Martial Extermination Realm expert. Even if I disappear, no one will be able to bully and humiliate them. The only thing I’m afraid of is that they’ll be closely monitored by the members of the Lou Family for some time... If you and I return right now, we’ll definitely fall into the Lou Family’s trap!”

Shang Xia nodded slowly before finally pushing the topic back on track after god knew how many sidetracks. “Right, you said something about how the Azure Oddity World is on its last legs... What do you mean by that? Are the cultivators of the Azure Oddity World still guarding their factions? Wouldn’t it just be a matter of time before they are completely taken over?”

Huang Yu shook his head and sighed, “Things have gone completely outside our expectations. True Immortal Yong Si, one of the second tier Martial Void Realm experts of the Azure Beginning World, was killed in the Azure Oddity World. The True Immortals of the various worlds became a lot more reserved and careful, grinding the entire operation to a halt.”

Shang Xia’s jaws dropped but eventually, he muttered, “Isn’t the heavenly screen of the Azure Oddity World destroyed? The mid to high-level experts of the various worlds should have already poured into the Azure Oddity World... How can a True Immortal be slain under such circumstances?”

“True Immortal Meng Yuanxiu’s formation artifact was damaged, and he gave up on protecting the entire world. Instead, he chose to retreat into his sect.” Huang Yu explained.

After thinking for a moment, Shang Xia asked, “Even though the artifact was damaged and wouldn’t be able to use its full power... Huh? Wait... You’re saying that he’s only using it to power the grand formation of his sect?”

Huang Yu knew what Shang Xia was getting at and he nodded in response, “Other than the grand formation protecting the various continents in the Azure Oddity World, Meng Yuanxiu also established a massive formation system in multiple factions. Even though it’s not comparable to the grand formation that encompasses several continents that could draw on half the Azure Oddity World’s origin to allow him to obtain the combat strength of a fourth tier Martial Void Realm expert, the properties of the smaller formation are still pretty solid.”

“Even though he would be able to last for a much longer time, a sect protecting grand formation is still a mere formation at the end of the day. It would be a matter of time before he is defeated.” Shang Xia muttered.

Huang Yu was in agreement. “That might be the case, but what if the Azure Oddity World is also hiding a third Martial Void Realm True Immortal?”

Shang Xia was caught off guard, but he quickly recalled how True Immortal Yong Si had fallen and the true meaning behind it. “Wouldn’t the other worlds have felt the presence of another True Immortal if that was truly the case?”

The birth of any True Immortal would definitely cause a massive commotion. Even if they hid in an Elysium to undergo the breakthrough, they might not be able to hide the spatial fluctuations and the disturbance to the World Origin Source. Martial Dipper Realm experts would be able to feel any changes to the World Origin Source, and even stronger experts at the Martial Extermination Realm might be able to do so.

After True Immortal Meng Yuanxiu was injured in the Star Relay, the various worlds started to act. Moreover, from how quickly they made their preparations and how quickly they were able to start the invasion, it was clear that those worlds had long developed a plan to invade the Azure Oddity World. Shang Xia refused to believe that they didn’t bribe anyone to be their informants.

Huang Yu sighed, “Ever since True Immortal Meng Yuanxiu returned to the Azure Oddity World after the defeat, an expert from the Azure Oddity World managed to break through. Meng Yuanxiu made use of the protection formation around his sect to hide the process to the best of his abilities. Before that, he also entered seclusion with another True Immortal and using the excuse of cultivation, they managed to hide the birth of the new True Immortal...”

Shang Xia also sighed at the discovery. “Looks like they’re pretty lucky. They actually managed to push another expert into the Martial Void Realm in such a short amount of time.”

“Yeah... Who would have thought... Whatever it is, with the birth of the third True Immortal in the Azure Oddity World, True Immortal Yong Si was caught off guard. When he was trapped by True Immortal Meng Yuanxiu’s grand formation, there was actually a chance for other True Immortals to save him. However, the third True Immortal made his move at that moment and heavily injured Ture Immortal Yong Si who had been suppressed by the World’s Will and True Immortal Meng Yuanxiu’s formation. Due to the sudden change, True Immortal Meng Yuanxiu was able to work together with the new True Immortal of the Azure Oddity World to drag True Immortal Yong Si into their Elysium...”

Shang Xia gasped. “Wait... Just the 2 of them?”

“That’s right. The other True Immortal of the Azure Oddity World is said to be hiding somewhere to avoid being surrounded by the experts from the various worlds. He can’t help True Immortal Meng Yuanxiu...” Huang Yu added.

Having thought of something, Shang Xia asked, “What about the Azure Beginning World? What’s their reaction to losing a True Immortal?”

With his eyes widening slightly, Huang Yu understood what Shang Xia was getting at and he thought for a moment before responding, “The Azure Beginning World also seems to have 3 True Immortals. However, no one knows how many of them actually joined the expedition to invade the Azure Oddity World. Moreover, the location of the Azure Beginning World hasn’t been revealed. I think...”

Shang Xia shook his head and mumbled, “I’m afraid it won’t be long before the Azure Beginning World retreats.”

Seeing the look of shock on Huang Yu’s face, Shang Xia quickly elaborated, “Of course, that’s only if there are still True Immortals from the Azure Beginning World present. If they didn’t send another True Immortal... With True Immortal Yong Si’s death, I’m afraid there won’t be too many experts of the Azure Beginning World capable of returning.”

“Do you think... Do you think the various worlds would set their sights on the Azure Beginning World after they deal with the Azure Oddity World?” Huang Yu wondered in a low voice.

To that, Shang Xia could only shake his head. “It’s hard to say... We need to see what the Azure Beginning World does. Moreover, it’s not easy to uncover the plans of the other True Immortals.”

After he was done, he turned his body to stare at the Azure Oddity World in the vast sea of space. “Anyway. Since the situation has changed, Looks like we should hurry and make a trip over and take a look for ourselves.”

“Now? Why don’t we wait a little more? The greatest benefits of the Azure Oddity World have most likely already been taken away by those who arrived before us.” Huang Yu muttered.

Shang Xia and Huang Yu were basically part of the last batches to arrive at the Azure Oddity World. Even though Meng Yuanxiu’s sect was still standing, the other parts of the world had most likely been wiped clean. Even if they entered the world, they would be fighting for the dregs left behind.

However, Shang Xia started to walk out of their camp and muttered, “You seem to have forgotten what happened when the Manyu Continent reached its end back then. Wouldn’t the eruption of world origin at the end cause many treasures to form?”

Huang Yu hastily ran behind Shang Xia while yelling, “Do you really think that Azure Oddity World will crumble and start to separate so quickly? That isn’t really possible... Meng Yuanxiu’s sect is holding up well and more than half the high-level cultivators of the Azure Oddity World have already gathered there. With the use of his formation, all of them possess extremely high combat abilities! It won’t be easy to break through their protection formation... Especially after True Immortal Yong Si was killed there.”

Stopping suddenly, Shang Xia turned around and asked, “If... I’m saying if... What if, True Immortal Yong Si’s death was a conspiracy the True Immortals from the other worlds cooked up? What if it’s exactly like how they made use of Patriarch Kou to injure Meng Yuanxiu’s divine artifact?”
