Chapter 704: Kou Chongxue’s Support



Shang Xia was naturally extremely unwilling to listen to Chu Jia’s arrangements after he returned to the Tongyou Mysterious World.

They had been interacting for a long time and Shang Xia had a good grasp of her character at that point. The great Formations Grandmaster of the Tongyou Institution was nothing like a teacher of the institution when there were no students around. She was an extremely crafty and unruly bitc… Older lady…

However, Shang Xia could only give in when it came to the ascension of the Tongyou Mysterious World. After all, the bigger picture always came first.

When he finally returned to the Tongyou Mysterious World and located Chu Jia, he discovered that he wasn’t the only one in a bad mood. Her expression was even more sullen than his. The look of disdain on her face when she saw him could be felt miles away!

The Tongyou Mysterious World was split into 3 sectors, namely the lower, middle, and upper sectors at the moment and obviously, Shang Xia and Chu Jia were in the Upper Sector that was the closest to the Beyond Heavens Pavilion at the moment.

As the core of the entire operation, Chu Jia was naturally in possession of the Nine Blossom Jade Formation Disc. It wasn’t beneath her feet, and neither did she carry it on her person. Instead, it hovered in the air above her.

From what Shang Xia could detect with his divine will, it wasn’t just suspended in mid air. It seemed connected to the space around it and it was fully embedded in place.

Even though it was said that every single holy land was a separate space that depended on the main world by drawing on its world origin, but in fact, it was actually just a way to make up for the world’s weakness.

The Nine Blossom Jade Formation Disc above Chu Jia’s head seemed to have something to do with how the Tongyou Institution was planning to patch up a leak that might happen during the ascension process.

Both Shang Xia and Chu Jia had been maintaining civility after he arrived, but Chu Jia’s gaze never left his body.

Shang Xia was starting to feel uncomfortable by the way she was looking at him and he finally heaved a helpless sigh, “What do you need me to do?”

A massive grin appeared on Chu Jia’s face and she looked pretty pleased with herself for winning the ‘first to speak loses’ game she came up with on the spot. Of course, she didn’t answer Shang Xia’s question immediately. “Did you enter the Martial Dipper Realm already?!”

Shang Xia felt that she was actually bullshitting as it was pretty obvious whether he broke through or not at that point. He raised his eyebrows and continued, “When do you plan on during the energy from the Origin Tide for us to ascend?”

Chu Jia didn’t seem to hear, or care, about Shang Xia’s concern. She continued to talk about whatever she felt like. “Patriarch Kou is too biased! He only brought you over to explore the Celestial Remains…”

“How should I expand the space within the Tongyou Mysterious World during the ascension process?” Shang Xia continued.

Ignoring yet another question, Chu Jia roared in anger, “Hmph! I was also responsible for forcing open the entrance to the Celestial Remains. He used a single extermination origin to send me away…”

Only then did Shang Xia start to examine her properly. He gasped once and muttered, “You actually entered the third layer of the Martial Extermination Realm…”

With her eyes widening in shock, Chu Jia growled, “Did you just realize?!”

“Oh! Pretty good! You advanced pretty quickly!” Shang Xia added quickly.

“Hmph! Can you get more perfunctory than that…” Chu Jia was clearly unhappy with his reaction and she seemed to realize something the next moment. Her eyes grew even wider and she snapped, “Wait a second! How can you talk to me like that?! I’m your teacher!”

Shang Xia was clearly acting like her senior when he praised her earlier.

He couldn’t be bothered with her flustered reaction and he couldn’t help but think about how her cultivation increased rapidly after they returned from the Manyu Continent. It seemed as though she accumulated a lot during her trip there which allowed her to break through easily.

With her cultivation level at the third layer of the Martial Extermination Realm, she could easily rank within the top ten of the Tongyou Institution.

They continued to mock and throw childish insults at each other before finally stomping away in dissatisfaction. Of course, that interaction wouldn’t affect their cooperation when the time truly came to carry out the Tongyou Institution’s plan.

Shang Xia’s task was extremely simple. All he had to do was to adjust the flow of world origin into the Tongyou Mysterious World and to direct them in a specific flow. He would also have to stabilize the space within the holy land after the ascension was complete.

Finally, and most importantly, he had to continue to strengthen the connection between the new Tongyou Paradise and the World’s Will.

The tasks weren\'t too difficult or complicated. However, only Martial Dipper Realm experts had the ability to do them.

Of course, the Martial Dipper Realm expert carrying it out would also receive great benefits. It would come in the form of a reward from the World’s Will.

The creation of any holy land would result in a huge inflow of world origin. It could patch up some of the weaknesses of the world, but in essence, it would prove to be a valuable improvement. As such, the World’s Will wouldn’t ignore the process.

Seeing as the Worlds’ Will was still completing the fusion process, they would be in for a period of peace for some time. Shang Xia could take the chance to consolidate his foundations.

That was one of the reasons why Yun Jing wanted Shang Xia to remain in the Tongyou Mysterious World. He could take the time to cultivate in peace.

What none of them knew was that even though Shang Xia had just broken through and might not have a great control over his own strength, his inner qi wasn’t actually unstable.

That was because of the way the five elements mutually restrained each other. His foundations were much stronger than what others might think.

During the time he entered seclusion, he wasn’t really trying to work on his foundations. Instead, he had been trying to control his strength a little better.

Of course, Shang Xia wouldn’t waste the period of peace he had.

After temporarily separating from Chu Jia, Shang Xia quickly carved out a pocket of space where he wouldn’t be disturbed to start cultivation.

That was the first time he had done something like that ever since entering the Martial Dipper Realm. He discovered that his control over space had improved greatly.

Well, he could only do something like that in the Tongyou Mysterious World. If he was outside, doing something like that wouldn’t be easy. Moreover, he wouldn’t be able to maintain the pocket of space even if he managed to carve one out.

In the sealed space, Shang Xia brought out the Embroidered Cloud Case Kou Chongxue had given him.

It contained some treasures Kou Chongxue thought he could use.

After opening it, the first thing he saw was Kou Chongxue’s self made rank five sword art, the Origin Yang Thousand Peak Sword Art. There was also the secret art he practiced, the Tongyou Secret Art.

From those treasures, anyone would be able to see how much importance Kou Chongxue had placed on Shang Xia’s development.

Back in the Four Constellation Realm, Shang Xia already knew that he would have to come up with a set of rank five martial arts for himself. He couldn’t do what he did in the Four Constellation Realm and come up with it in closed door cultivation. He had to understand and reference what other people had come up with and exchange pointers with fellow experts before finally carving out his own path.

Kou Chongxue also knew that Shang Xia would definitely choose to create his own martial arts and secret art. Even though he couldn’t give any pointers when trapped in the Stellar Cauldron, he didn’t hesitate to give Shang Xia his years of hard work.

He even recorded things he learned when fighting with other Martial Dipper Realm experts and the contents of what he gave Shang Xia was extremely solid.

Shang Bo and Ji Wenlong weren’t stingy either. After Shang Xia read through all 3 inheritances, he discovered that Kou Chongxue was the only one who came up with his personal martial art. Ji Wenlong and his grandfather were practicing stuff they comprehended from Kou Chongxue’s Tongyou Secret Art and the Origin Yang Thousand Peak Sword Art.

That was to say, even though Ji Wenlong and Shang Bo managed to comprehend something after entering the Martial Dipper Realm, everything stemmed from Kou Chongxue’s techniques.

That point alone could prove how much of a genius Kou Chongxue was. Shang Bo and Ji Wenlong weren’t just slightly lacking when compared to him. They were far too lacking…

Whatever the case was, Shang Bo was still a little better than Ji Wenlong. After all, he wasn’t restricted to staying in the confines of the You Continent like Ji Wenlong. Because of that, Shang Bo’s starting point was actually higher than a good half of the Martial Dipper Realm experts in the Azure Origin World.

What was more, Shang Bo had been in the Martial Dipper Realm for a shorter time than Ji Wenlong.

Flipping through the 3 books that recorded everything the Martial Dipper Realm Ancestors of the Tongyou Institution knew, Shang Xia could only sigh at the institution’s lack of accumulations.

A true holy land had hundreds of years of knowledge. They were collected bit by bit by their predecessors and well recorded. Even after the advancement of the Tongyou Mysterious World into the Tongyou Paradise, they had only just laid the foundations of their holy land.

Shang Xia definitely wouldn’t be able to come up with his rank five martial arts or secret art in a short period of time.

The reason Kou Chongxue and the rest left behind their experience was so that he could look through them and try to gain some inspiration.

At the end of the day, Shang Xia couldn\'t follow those inheritances closely. That would only serve to get in his way. Other than that, Shang Xia knew that he had one more way of raising his cultivation and strength directly. That was to refine fate dipper essences of the same element.

Back in the Celestial Remains, Kou Chongxue handed him an Embroidered Cloud Case with all his gains and told him he could use anything he needed.

Slowly opening the case, the first thing he saw were two strands of Primal Yang Copper Fate Dipper Essence.

Shang Xia was surprised, but he understood why Kou Chongxue did it.

Back then, Kou Chongxue needed to use his Primal Yang Copper Fate Dipper to continue nourishing his Hidden Frost Sword. He didn’t have time to split off too many fate dipper essence for Shang Xia. Kou Chongxue took some time to create 2 more strands for Shang Xia after learning that it was useful for him.

Once he refined them, he would be able to strengthen the Geng Metal Element in his body.

What Shang Xia couldn’t understand was if refining only Geng Metal Fate Dipper Essence would cause an imbalance of his Five Element Origin.
