Chapter 901: Damage to the Elysium

Slightly taken aback, Shang Xia asked, “What do you mean?”

Shaking his head to indicate how clueless he was, Huang Yu continued, “Since she left it behind, you should head over and ask her if you’re interested in it.”

Seeing as Huang Yu wasn’t willing to say anymore, Shang Xia changed the topic. “Won’t she be able to find any gaps in your disguise?”

Pausing slightly, a look of contemplation flashed in his eyes. For a moment, it seemed like he was questioning his abilities, but eventually, he shook his head and mumbled, “Nope.”

The way he spoke, he might be referring to the fact that she might not be able to see through his disguise, but he might also be referring to the fact that even if she did, she wouldn’t expose him. Shang Xia felt that the latter was more likely.

Thinking for a moment, Shang Xia broke out into a smile. “Looks like the water in the Spirit Abundance World is deep indeed...”

“No shit?” Huang Yu raised an eyebrow and stared at him.

This time, as they concluded their conversation, they arrived back inside the city.

The Tongyou Institution might have gone all out to deploy their experts to the Beyond Heavens Pavilion to resist the invasion from the Spirit Abundance World, but they left behind a few Martial Extermination Realm experts in the city. There were also direct disciples of the institution in the Martial Intent Realm in charge of their defenses. They controlled the grand formation together to prevent attacks from the experts of the Spirit Abundance World.

Shang Xia could leave the city easily, but entering would prove to be a lot more troublesome. Even though he felt that with his current abilities, he would still be able to get in undetected, there was no need to waste so much time and effort.

Going through the proper process of screening to enter the city, Shang Xia brought Huang Yu into the institution. He introduced the Martial Extermination Realm experts in charge of the grand formation in the city to Huang Yu and told them to work with him to protect the city.

Even though the Martial Extermination Realm experts were suspicious of Huang Yu’s identity, they didn’t have a shred of doubt for Shang Xia. Moreover, for them to gain another Martial Dipper Realm expert to personally take charge of matters in the city... The grand formation would be greatly strengthened!

Shang Xia could sense that the attacks from the Spirit Abundance World were getting more intense as the Azure Ascension World neared the completion of its transformation. No matter how secluded the You Continent was, it would still be affected by the intense battle.

After settling Huang Yu into the city, Shang Xia immediately returned to the Beyond Heavens Pavilion.

Through the clone he left behind, he could sense that the situation was getting really bad...

“You... You actually left a Fate Dipper Clone in the Beyond Heavens Pavilion while getting rid of them earlier?” After Huang Yu learned that Shang Xia wasn’t even at his peak state, he couldn’t help but gasp in shock.

“The clone doesn’t have too much combat capabilities. I left it there to ease the chaotic energy flow and provide support for those up there.” Shang Xia explained.

Huang Yu waved his hand and knew that Shang Xia was merely acting humble with the revelation. He sighed softly, “If there’s a chance... I mean, if there’s a chance to kill any Sixth Order existence up there, tell Kou Chongxue that he has to target Dugu Yuanshan!”

This time, Shang Xia wasn’t just slightly taken aback. He was dumbstruck. He thought Huang Yu was joking, but when he saw the serious expression hanging on Huang Yu’s face, he quickly restrained his emotions. “Why Dugu Yuanshan?”

From Huang Yu, Shang Xia already learned the names of the Martial Void Realm experts of the Spirit Abundance World who were invading them. Dugu Yuanshan was from the Solitary Peak Heavenly Lake, and his cultivation was a cut above those who came!

Huang Yu muttered in a low voice, “If we manage to kill Dugu Yuanshan, the Solitary Peak Heavenly Lake won’t be able to maintain their power in the Spirit Abundance World and chaos will definitely break out!”

Obviously, a single sentence was far from enough to convince Shang Xia to do anything. He remained silent as he waited for Huang Yu to continue.

Pausing for some time, Huang Yu seemed to be sorting out all the information he had before he spoke again. “The Solitary Peak Heavenly Lake is ranked 8th out of the 9 great powers of the Spirit Abundance World. Dugu Yuanshan’s identity might be able to rock the Spirit Abundance World, but he’s the only Martial Void Realm expert in his faction. If he dies during the invasion of the Azure Ascension World, there will definitely be internal strife in the Solitary Peak Heavenly Lake. A massive storm might even sweep across the Spirit Abundance World! When that happens, they won’t be able to care about anything else and we will get a chance to catch a break.”

Shang Xia suddenly thought back to Dugu Gaolou he killed earlier. Not only was Dugu Gaolou from the Solitary Peak Heavenly Lake, but he was also Dugu Yuanshan’s direct descendant who was nurtured by the Martial Void Realm Ancestor!

With Dugu Gaolou already dying in the Azure Ascension World, Dugu Yuanshan lost his heir. The upcoming battle for authority in the Solitary Peak Heavenly Lake could be imagined.

For Huang Yu to tell Shang Xia to convey the message to Kou Chongxue about targeting Dugu Yuanshan... It was hard to imagine it wasn’t all part of Huang Yu’s plan.

Seeing the changing expressions on Shang Xia’s face, Huang Yu was more than capable of guessing his thoughts. A bitter smile appeared on his face. “The line separating success and failure is thin. Sometimes, all you have to do is try. Moreover, Dugu Yuanshan has already reached the third tier of the Martial Void Realm. It’s not going to be easy to kill him.”

Shang Xia nodded slightly. “Alright. I’ll hand matters in the city over to you then.”

God knew how many Martial Dipper Realm experts of the Spirit Abundance World entered the Azure Ascension World at that point. The various powers had already recalled their strength to the very core region of their territories while giving up on everything else.

The Tongyou Institution was no different. Everyone they had been nurturing in the past few years had already been recalled into the Tongyou City. The islands to the east of the You Continent and a new city that established itself in the north of the continent had been forsaken a long time ago.

There was a single goal among the various factions of the Azure Ascension World with things at its current stage. It was to use their full strength to hasten the transformation of the Azure Ascension World into a Spirit World!

The moment the transformation was complete, the suppression of the world on experts of other worlds would increase greatly. When that happened, the invasion was bound to end in failure. That was the only way to ensure the Azure Ascension World could reduce their loss!

...

By the time Shang Xia returned to the Beyond Heavens Pavilion, he was shocked by the state of things. He might have prepared himself, but seeing it for himself was a different matter altogether.

The heavenly screen of the Azure Ascension World was basically a sieve at that point.

Every single faction was concentrating their strength to the core region of the Beyond Heavens Pavilion above their continent. They were protecting their Holy Lands and Elysiums with everything they had, especially the weakness of the world that was covered up by their respective powers that were connected to the World Origin Source.

There were also experts of the Spirit Abundance World leaving on their own accord from time to time.

As soon as Shang Xia arrived earlier, his Fate Dipper Clone turned into a streak of light that returned.

His recovery speed was quick to begin with, and with the return of his clone, Shang Xia’s aura grew to a terrifying level. Whatever it was, he already refined 80 fate dipper essences. His aura might not be comparable to Kou Chongxue at his peak, but it was more than enough to suppress everyone in the area to the point they found it hard to breathe.

The experts of the institution weren’t the only ones who felt his presence. Experts from the Spirit Abundance World 1000 miles around Shang Xia felt their expressions sinking. They took the initiative to avoid the Beyond Heavens Pavilion above the You Continent and those who were closer fled immediately.

As world origin poured into his body, Shang Xia’s Five Element Dipper Qi recovered rapidly. His aura also seemed to fall under his control.

Meeting the deputy patriarchs, Shang Xia gave them a quick rundown of what he did with Huang Yu. When he was done, he muttered, “From how this is looking, unless our world completes its ascension, everything inside is going to shit! The continents are going to be destroyed!”

The destructive abilities of an expert at the Martial Dipper Realm were insane. Moreover, the experts sent by the Spirit Abundance World had cultivation realms in the third element of the Martial Dipper Realm!

Naturally, that wasn’t what the deputy patriarchs cared about at that moment. After hearing that the city was perfectly alright, and how Shang Xia worked with Huang Yu to slay 2 Martial Dipper Realm experts of the Spirit Abundance World while chasing another from the Rainbow Pagoda away, it was clear they felt a lot more relieved.

Finally, Ji Wenlong processed what he said. “Heh, there’s no need to wait till the world completes its ascension. Everything has already been turned upside down!”

Seeing the look of shock on Shang Xia’s face, Shang Bo sighed, “We have already received news that the entrance of the Zhenyang Gate of the Xu Continent has been broken. Their core disciples, along with a Martial Dipper Realm expert, have retreated into their Holy Land and they even shattered the entrance as a last-ditch effort to stay alive. They are trapped in there now. The Desert Gate in the northwestern direction of our You Continent has been wiped off the map... Basically, everyone was killed...”

The Zhenyang Gate and the Desert Gate were powerful factions who possessed Holy Lands!

Shang Xia couldn’t help but gasp at the news. “How... How is that possible? Has the treasure concealing the secret region hiding the Holy Land of the Zhenyang Gate been found? Did the Northern Sea Mystic Sect not help the Desert Gate?”

Yun Jing shook her head and mumbled, “The situation is still unclear at the moment, but the Zhenyang Gate’s Holy Land remains intact. It seems as though their treasure hasn’t been found. As for the Desert Gate... It’s over for them. How can the Northern Sea Mystic Sect send anyone to help others at the moment? They’re suppressed by 2 Martial Void Realm experts at the moment and even if they had additional strength, they wouldn’t send their experts away to help others...”

A cry of pain seemed to come from the Azure Ascension World as soon as Yun Jing was done speaking. Shang Xia felt as though he lost something important as heartache started to set in.

He was no stranger to the feeling. Back in the Azure Flame World, there were several instances he felt the same thing when the World’s Will was crying out in pain.

Back then, the Azure Flame World had nothing to do with him and he was the person causing the grief and loss. Now, he was feeling the cries of his Azure Ascension World for the first time.

That wasn’t all. Shang Xia could clearly feel the World Origin Source churning about chaotically when the wail was released. The transformation process of the Azure Ascension World seemed to slow down.

Of course, it wasn’t as though it stopped completely. The transformation process was still ongoing.

Yun Jing sighed suddenly, “They most likely destroyed the Zhenyang Gate’s Holy Land...”

A look of shock appeared on Shang Xia’s face. “Did the same thing happen when the Desert Gate was destroyed?! Why didn’t we feel anything?”

Ji Wenlong and the others turned to look at Shang Xia with a trace of shock before turning to look in the direction of the Desert Gate. There had to be something strange about the Desert Gate if that was the case!

Shang Bo eventually sighed, “It’s unfortunate, but we can’t do anything about it. We can only protect the You Continent to the best of our abilities. I’m afraid we will only be able to get to the bottom of the matter once everything comes to an end...”

Shang Xia nodded slightly. He then turned to Yun Jing and declared, “Now that I’m here, it’s time for you to prepare to break through to the Martial Dipper Realm!”

A massive Nine Story Pagoda in the southeast trembled violently as one of the floors collapsed just as Shang Xia was done speaking.

With his expression sinking, Shang Xia realized what had happened. That was where the Divine Capital Sect was situated, at the Nine Story Pagoda was the treasure holding their Elysium up! With a portion of it destroyed, the Divine Capital Elysium was bound to suffer some damage!
