Chapter 1280: Kou Chongxue’s Order
After bidding them farewell, Feng Ziying didn’t immediately leave the Spirit Luxuriant World. He went to pay the Northern Sea Mystic Sect, Yuanchen Sect, Divine Capital Sect, and Eternal Palace a visit before heading back to the Star Origin Dao Field.
During that time, the establishment of the Hai Continent was nearing its end and the World’s Will finally integrated it into the lands.
Because of how withered the continent was, even after reducing its land mass, it was comparable to the most desolate of continents on the Spirit Luxuriant World.
If that was all they did, even if the Martial Dipper Realm experts of the Tongyou Institution integrated the continent into the world, they would be unable to receive a strong blessing.
As such... After everything returned to its original calm, Sun Haiwei and Ge Qingzhu who were most likely to enter the Martial Void Realm quickly headed to the heavenly screen above the Jiao Continent as they were instructed.
“Ever since you brought the continent back, you have remained above the heavenly screen. Other than sending your clones in from time to time, you didn’t try to enter our world... I pretty much guessed that you were the one who stole the world origin from the Star Origin Dao Field...” Kou Chongxue felt the surging world origin Shang Xia transferring into the vessels prepared by Sun Haiwei and Ge Qingzhu as he chuckled.
What they prepared was something similar to an Origin Holy Artifact, but wasn’t quite one yet. The imitation treasure was extremely weak and was pretty much a one-time use item to transfer world origin.
At the very least, the Weapons Hall of the Tongyou Institution wasn’t completely useless as they managed to at least come up with something like that after the higher-ups tried to make up for their weaknesses.
Shang Xia wasn’t surprised that Kou Chongxue could make that guess. He simply laughed while explaining to Sun Haiwei and Ge Qingzhu, “If I entered the world with the world origin of the Spirit Tinkle World, I will definitely steal a part of the blessing of our World’s Will. As such, I can only wait for you to complete the establishment of the continent above the heavenly screen.”
Ge Qingzhu couldn’t help but ask with worry, “Wouldn’t this affect your cultivation?”
Shang Xia waved his hand and chuckled, “There’s no need to worry about that. In my current realm, the blessing of the World’s Will from the formation of a continent wouldn’t help much.”
Sun Haiwei still seemed worried as she continued, “If we fail to break through, nothing much would change, but if we do, won\'t the final 2 slots to become True Immortals belong to us? Wouldn’t that mean that no one in the future will be able to break through?”
“It’s too early for you to worry about things like that. We are still fighting over the Bing Continent with the Divine Capital Sect and the Hai Continent wouldn’t be ready to experience the birth of a True Immortal even with the world origin I am giving you.” Shang Xia smiled.
The Hai Continent might only span 6000 miles across, but even with the world origin Shang Xia provided, it would be far from enough to turn the continent into one with rich resources. It was barely enough to make it into a continent that was of a considerable standard a Spirit World would have.
Kou Chongxue was the next to speak, “The Bing Continent and Hai Continent were obtained by Little Shang and me. If you enter the Martial Void Realm in the future, you can continue to fight for opportunities for the later generation of the Tongyou Institution. After all, our Spirit Luxuriant World can birth 33 True Immortals if we include all the Elysiums... How many True Immortals do we have right now? It’s far from the maximum number we can possess!”
Kou Chongxue’s tone was harsh when he spoke. Ge Qingzhu and Sun Haiwei put on serious expressions when listening to him and they bowed their heads slightly. “Many thanks for your teachings, Patriarch Kou. We will follow it closely...”
At the side, Shang Xia laughed, ‘If we wish to obtain ways for disciples of our institution to break through in the future, we have another method. It’s to help our world ascend to an Essence World. The moment we succeed, our world will be able to birth experts in the Martial Emptiness Realm, and when that happens, there won’t be such an intense restriction on the number of True Immortals!”
Ge Qingzhu and Sun Haiwei forced a smile. They knew that the Spirit Luxuriant World was far from being able to ascend into an Essence World.
Kou Chongxue raised an eyebrow and looked at Shang Xia with a profound gaze, but he didn’t say anything anymore.
Only after Ge Qingzhu and Sun Haiwei left with their vessels full of world origin did Kou Chongxue hesitate slightly before asking Shang Xia, “Are you really planning to start already?”
Shang Xia smiled in response, “We can’t avoid it. We’re going to be dragged into it sooner or later. The worlds connected to the Star Origin Dao Field have remained peaceful for more than a thousand years. However, everything seems to be going to the shits. Even they have been starting to draw some powers to their side. Why should we not start to get ready? Moreover... The Spirit Abundance World and us won’t stop till one side is destroyed!”
“What about the Essence Ping World?” Kou Chongxue asked in a low voice, “I’m afraid the higher-ups of the great Spirit Worlds already know of its existence. If the Star Origin Lord is able to successfully replace its World’s Will...”
“No one is willing to see him succeed!” Shang Xia shook his head and sighed, “Perhaps Zhuge Xiang was the only one who was on his side, and that is why he was killed!”
Kou Chongxue’s pupils shrank slightly and he muttered, “Do you really think Zhuge Xiang’s death is because the various worlds have chosen to go against the Star Origin Lord?”
“Even Zhuo Gudao chose to betray the Star Origin Lord. Why else would the True Immortals of the great Spirit Worlds join Tong Yutang in his crusade against Zhuge Xiang?” Shang Xia explained.
Looking at Shang Xia, Kou Chongxue muttered in a low voice, “What do you plan to do next?”
Shang Xia thought for a moment before responding, “I should head back to Star Beast Nest No.2 soon. I plan to head to the Essence Xing World to take a look around since the situation there is pretty interesting. Moreover, I also wish to experience the true might of an Essence World.”
Shang Xia had been to the Essence Ping World in the past, but that was a special case as it was a desolate world.
Kou Chongxue frowned in response, “I feel that you shouldn’t be in a rush to explore the Essence Xing W world. The Ruined World close to Star Beast Nest No.1 might no longer have a use for me, but it might help with your cultivation...”
The main use of the Essence Refining Void Returning Formation was to assist a third tier True Immortal step into the fourth tier, and since Kou Chongxue succeeded without it, the Tongyou Institution wouldn’t be able to produce another expert at the peak of the third tier of the Martial Void Realm anytime soon anyway.
With the increasingly chaotic situation, Kou Chongxue naturally didn’t wish to waste the Ruined World and thought of the best way to utilize it.
Fortunately, the Tongyou Institution had a rank six Formation Grandmaster and could make certain modifications to the Essence Refining Void Returning Formation.
After thinking for some time, Shang Xia mumbled, “We can modify it, but I think you should use it instead. After all, it was prepared for you to become a high-level True Immortal...”
Shaking his head, Kou Chongxue laughed, “Even if we succeed in modifying it, it won’t help me much. It will only increase my cultivation by 8 to 10 years. However, its effects would be much greater on you. It might even be able to bring you close to the fifth tier! Don’t forget... The Spirit Mammoth World and Spirit Abundance World have fifth tier True Immortals of their own. Moreover, they have more than 1...”
Shang Xia wanted to continue rejecting Kou Chongxue’s goodwill, but the patriarch simply waved his hand and declared, “Alright, that’s it. This is an order from your patriarch!”
