Splitting the Heavens

Chapter 840: Azure Flame World

Above the Beyond Heavens Pavilion of the Jiao Continent, a massive hole was left in the heavenly screen because of the disappearance of the Celestial Remains. Meteors would shoot into the land from time to time and cause widespread destruction.

However, after the meeting of the Sixth Order Ancestors earlier, the heavenly screen started to repair itself. After some time, the massive hole that was there started to shrink. Even so, it couldnt fully close up.

That was because the presence of a Holy Land or Elysium was needed to cover it up. They were used to patch up weaknesses in the heavenly screen, and it was no different for the Jiao Continent.

Their existence that sealed up the weaknesses of the world was also the reason why the Worlds Will accepted their presence even though it would drain the World Origin Source.

After the disappearance of the Celestial Remains, the heavens above the Jiao Continent would be revealed, and from a certain standpoint, it was a type of opportunity for some.

Unfortunately, the opportunity was sealed off by the Sixth Order existences of the 4 Elysiums the moment it appeared.

The Martial Dipper Realm experts from the various factions came next to inspect what happened in the Beyond Heavens Pavilion above the Jiao Continent.

When they saw that the Celestial Remains had disappeared and the Ruined Observatory was the only thing left. Those who arrived were greatly taken aback.

Many of them tried to take a closer look, but they discovered that there was a strange spatial barrier around the platform. Despite many of them joining hands, they couldnt even cause it to tremble.

Eventually, there were some experts who discovered the abnormality. The experts of the 4 Elysium, didnt come!

Only then did the Martial Dipper Realm experts from the various factions discover what was going on. The Martial Dipper Realm experts from the Elysiusm might not have been able to arrive earlier than them as they were basically of similar cultivation levels. However, for them to already know what had happened and for an indestructible seal around the observatory to be put in place would mean that the Sixth Order Ancestors of their Elysiums had made a move!

Obviously, the Elysiums learned of what happened earlier than the others, including the disappearance of the many Martial Dipper Realm experts. In fact, they might be the ones who caused it!

Rage filled the hearts of many experts who arrived, but after thinking about the strength those Elysiums possessed and the might of an expert in the Sixth Order of the Primary Realm, they could only choose to swallow their rage.

If there was something fortunate about the entire matter, it would be that the 4 Elysiums could no longer sit back and do nothing with so many Martial Dipper Realm experts going missing. They couldnt allow the rest of the Azure Ascension World to break out into a full blown panic either. As such, a Martial Dipper Realm expert from each of the Elysiums finally showed up to explain the situation to the others.

A foreign world?

Spatial transfer?!

Looks like the Elysiums knew about this matter

The seal around the observatory had to be done by them! It has to be the key for the rest to return successfully!

...

Even though there were many points that couldnt be properly explained and everyone still had doubts in their minds, there wasnt much they could do about it. Many people wondered why there werent any signs that pointed to it happening or any explanation before. For so many Martial Dipper Realm experts to disappear at once, it seemed like a targeted kidnapping scheme! The strength of the various factions in the Azure Ascension World would be greatly diminished, and there might even be internal conflicts happening in many factions due to the disappearance of their Martial Dipper Realm experts. Because of that, there might even be some powers that might disappear from the face of the earth!

No matter how doubtful they were, with the Sixth Order Ancestors backing up their point, no one dared to challenge their prestige. They could only choose to silently accept the explanation.

There might be certain factors in play, but be it intentionally or intentionally, the Elysiums didnt out Kou Chongxue as the culprit behind the entire matter. The Tongyou Institution seemed to be a part of the victims in the matter.

Even though the Elysiums chose to hide the matter for Kou Chongxue, many higher-ups in the institution had some thoughts as to what was going on.

At the very least, the rumors of Kou Chongxues disappearance and his actually empty cultivation grounds, along with Shang Xias abnormal behavior after breaking through the layers of restrictions to gain access to the forbidden cultivation grounds Oh right, there was also the matter where he prepared so extensively for their journey to the Celestial Remains Everything connected and Shang Bo felt that his suspicions werent unfounded.

After Shang Bo returned to the Tongyou Institution from the Beyond Heavens Pavilion above the Jiao Continent, he quickly relayed everything he saw to Ji Wenlong and he also voiced his suspicions.

The arrangement the Tongyou Institution made in the You Continent didnt seem to change on the surface, but in secret, they recalled a portion of their Martial Extermination Realm experts and any Martial Intent Realm disciple who possessed great potential. They were all deployed back to the Tongyou City.

Fortunately, the situation affected the entire Azure Ascension World. Every single faction was rearranging their forces and consolidating their strength. They locked down the news of whatever happened to the Celestial Remains and their high-level experts, and the 4 Elysiums provided a powerful suppression when it came to any leakage of the news. As such, it didnt cause too much of a stir.

Of course, the disappearance of so many Martial Dipper Realm experts couldnt be hidden for long. With so many hearts wavering, undercurrents reached a torrential state. It wouldnt take long for the Spirit Abundance World to possibly learn about it.

After the disappearance of the Celestial Remains above the Jiao Continent, Shang Xia was conversing with Kou Chongxues Fire Element Fate Dipper Clone in a certain region of space.

This old mans true body already guessed that you would have the ability to use the Origin Holy Artifact. However, he didnt think that you would be able to activate it to such an extent! Hehe I believe the Sixth Order Ancestors of the Elysiums should be pretty confused at the moment

There was a look of schadenfreude on his face as he snickered, Hehe, theyre probably going crazy suspecting everything now. They should be wondering where an existence comparable to my true body popped up from before joining hands with me to make this happen.

Shang Xia was feeling the change in his body after pulling world origin from the Azure Ascension World with the Stellar Cauldron, but he maintained the smile on his face as he replied, Did you not think of what would happen if I wasnt capable enough to do what I just did?

Theres not too much about that. Its just that the spatial tunnel that was created might crumble along the way and wouldnt be able to transport everyone to the Azure Flame World. Kou Chongxues clone mumbled.

Azure Flame World? So, the world were going to is also an Azure World Shang Xia nodded slightly. After a short pause, he continued, What do you mean the spatial tunnel would crumble half way? Wont a lot of people die?

A chuckle left Kou Chongxues clone the next moment. Those over there will probably make a move to save a few of them

Of course, they would only be able to save a portion of those who would fall into the void. Many of them would have their souls and bodies exterminated after being thrown into chaotic space.

Silence descended between them the next second.

Only after some time did Shang Xia break the silence. Your actions would bring the entire Azure Ascension World against us The entire You Continent would be affected, and the Tongyou Institution would become public enemy number 1

Hehe No it wont. The clone looked exceptionally pleased with himself and he continued, Those fellows might even cover up what I did for me!

With a serious look on his face, Shang Xia turned to ask, Is this what Patriarch Kou told you to tell me?

Maintaining the smile on his face, Kou Chongxues clone chuckled, Were really close to the Azure Flame World. You can go ask him yourself.

Staying quiet for some time, Shang Xia eventually shifted the topic. Whats the collective strength of the Azure Flame World like?

How would I know? My true body wouldnt transmit information from the Azure Flame World to me. However The clone released a hoarse laugh before his tone changed again. ... However, if hes not certain that he can successfully scheme against them, he wont attempt a spatial transfer to send experts over.

In the past, he got an explanation from Chu Jia. Now, he was getting one from Kou Chongxues clone. He seemed to understand the spatial transfer a lot more. If they were only sending a single person over, the process would be much less complicated. All they had to do was to mark out the position of the world in the sea of stars before starting the transfer.

However, what Shang Xia and Kou Chongxue did was completely different. They were sending hundreds of Martial Extermination Realm cultivators and dozens of Martial Dipper Realm experts to a foreign world! Other than the position of the world, it would be best if there was someone there to receive them. If they could create a stable spatial tunnel, they would be able to send a bunch of people accurately to the foreign worlds location.

Shang Xias voice sank, and he muttered with slight disbelief. We are about to be thrown into a proper world here!

Unlike the expedition to the Manyu Continent which was a mere fragment of a Spirit World and on the verge of destruction, they were about to enter a world that was on the same level as their Azure Ascension World!

Nope. Were not just planning to enter another Azure World. Were robbing them! The clone muttered.

It was true that they were both Azure World, but there were still differences between the Azure Ascension World and the Azure Flame World.

The Azure Origin World and the Azure Spiritual World of the past were also Azure Worlds. After their fusion and the infusion of the world origin from the Manyu Continent, they managed to reach a level where they were about to ascend into the realm of a Spirit World.

Azure Ascension It was a name the world had given itself due to its reluctance to fail at the very last moment during the world ascension.

That might also be the reason why Kou Chongxue chose to enter the Azure Flame World after finding it.

Shang Xia might know nothing about it at all, but he was pretty confident that they would be able to infiltrate it easily. Kou Chongxues wasnt a part of his consideration though. After all, the Azure Ascension World was an existence that was at the peak of all Azure Worlds. They were only inferior of Spirit Worlds at their current level!

In one of the ordinary Martial Worlds in the Azure Flame World

The surface world seemed secluded from worldly affairs and was relatively peaceful, but ever since a foreign expert barged into their world years ago, a chain reaction started. It didnt end even till that day.

The foreign expert was extremely powerful and he defeated countless famous experts in the Azure Flame World the moment he arrived. After he was done, he barged into the world.

Because he was ostracized by the Worlds Will, his strength had been greatly restrained. Many experts of the Azure Flame World worked together to defeat him, but he still managed to get away in the end.

The factions of the Azure Flame World tried to form teams to hunt him down, but the foreign expert seemed to have learned his lesson. He wouldnt meet more than 2 native cultivators of the Azure Flame World at any one time, and it was extremely difficult to find his tracks. There were even times when they fell for his schemes.

In recent years, there were at least 3 Martial Sages who had fallen victim to the mysterious and powerful foreign expert. If they counted those who were defeated by him, the number would be in the dozens.

It wasnt as though the peak-tier existences of the Azure Flame World didnt try to communicate with the other party. They tried to eliminate the hostility between both sides, but that was only because they had no other choice. Unfortunately, the foreign expert who arrived seemed to have a strong sense of exclusion when facing the native cultivators of the Azure Flame World and wasnt willing to interact much with them.

Who would have thought that one fine day, fragments of broken land, debris from shattered structures, crumbling mountains, and water that seemed to come from nowhere would appear in the Beyond Heavens Pavilion of the Azure Flame World? They fell from the sea of stars and slammed straight into the Azure Flame World.

The strange happenings immediately alerted the various martial factions of the Azure Flame World, and many Martial Sages appeared in the skies above the Azure Flame World. They tried their best to intercept the threat coming their way. To their surprise, they quickly discovered that there were streaks of light flying their way. They were foreign experts who were charging straight for the Azure Flame World!
