Chapter 985: Azure Oddity World

Huang Yu could see that Tang Fengxiang was getting impatient and he chuckled softly while apologizing. “Brother Tang... Or should I say, Amazing Deacon Tang, please calm down. I believe you have seen him back then and he’s really reliable. He won’t make a mistake with such important matters. Brother Tang, you might not know, but my friend has an amazing ability! The moment he comes, you will be able to save a bunch of essence crystals! When that happens, it doesn’t matter if you take the chance to gain credit with the Heaven Embroidery Palace or if you use those essence crystals saved to.... Hehe, you understand!”

The annoyed look on Tang Fengxiang’s face disappeared in an instant. He grunted once, but he didn’t seem fully convinced, “Is your friend really that amazing? Why didn’t I notice it the first time we met?”

“Brother Tang, you can’t judge people based on their appearances. My friend might not look too friendly and might not be able to speak eloquently, but he was able to establish himself in the Star Origin City. If he didn’t have great skills, how would a wandering cultivator like himself reach the Martial Dipper Realm?” Huang Yu grinned.

Tang Fengxiang’s doubts seemed greatly diminished and he chuckled softly, “Since that’s the case... Let’s wait a little more. I have been too busy arranging and deploying all sorts of resources these days... I’ll just take this chance to catch a short break. After all, I deserve it...”

“Of course you do!” Huang Yu immediately responded.

As they continued to chat to pass the time, Huang Yu’s pupils trembled slightly and he turned to stare in a certain direction. A moment later, he gasped, “Hey! He’s here, he’s here!”

Tang Fengxiang was pleasantly surprised and he turned to stare in the same direction. He noticed a ray of gray light rushing over from the void and it arrived in the next instant. Who else could it be but Shang Xia?

“Haha! Brother Shang, you really made us wait!” Huang Yu revealed a look of pretend annoyance, but he was heaving a sigh of relief in his heart.

Cupping his fists, Shang Xia responded, “I apologize for making you wait!”

Tang Fengxiang immediately roared with laughter to lighten the moon, “Brother Shang, there’s no need to act with such formality! Did anything happen during your trip here?”

Grunting once, Shang Xia seemed to think about something. He muttered, “I guess nothing much happened. However, when I was at the heavenly screen, I discovered that there were a lot more experts than before and they seemed a lot stricter. They seem to be looking for people who sneaked into the Spirit Abundance World and I was stopped by several squads along the way. That was why I was delayed...”

Huang Yu was slightly taken aback and he asked, “Did something happen there? They even have multiple patrol squads now...”

Tang Fengxiang chuckled and interrupted, “Brother Huang, you might not know, but I received news from several friends. Chaos broke out in one of the Elysiums... That’s probably why there are a lot more squads on patrol now...”

“One of the Elysiums?” Huang Yu gasped in shock. However, when he saw the profound light in Tang Fengxiang’s eyes, he didn’t dare to probe further. He quickly brought the topic away. “Brother Tang, your connections are truly brilliant. I can’t believe you managed to learn about matters regarding the 9 great powers!”

“Heheh!” Tang Fengxiang laughed twice before continuing in an aloof tone, “Not really... I just managed to overhear the conversation between some experts!”

“Haha! I haven’t even seen a disciple of those great powers, unlike Brother Tang!” Huang Yu revealed an envious look as he continued to praise.

Shang Xia couldn’t help but sneer in his heart. Haven’t seen a disciple from those powers... Heh, who knows how many of them you killed?

Of course, Shang Xia didn’t lose out to Huang Yu in terms of acting skills and a look of envy also appeared on his face. Tang Fengxiang felt a great sense of satisfaction when he saw their reactions.

All of a sudden, Tang Fengxiang asked, “I heard that Brother Shang has a way to greatly improve the formation on flying ships! I wonder if we can save some essence crystals by doing so...”

Shang Xia glanced at Huang Yu who was smiling at the side and chuckled, “I have little accomplishments in it... However, I’m not the best at it.”

“Brother Shang, every flying ship consumes a great number of essence crystals when sending people and goods through the sea of stars. No matter what, you have to help Brother Tang out! After all, he has been taking good care of me all this time! We will also need Brother Tang’s help when we head out to the Azure Oddity World...”

Shang Xia hastily replied, “Alright, I understand! Brother Huang, Deacon Tang, please rest assured. I’ll deal with the formation on the flying ship!”

Of course Shang Xia knew jack shit about improving the formation on the flying ship! However, he knew the principles of the Five Element Spirit Gathering Formation which had been developed by Chu Jia and if he used his Five Element Dipper Qi to supplement its effects, the formation would become much more effective!

Tang Fengxiang was extremely pleased with Shang Xia’s reaction. The 3 of them laughed and chatted as they returned to one of the camps in the sea of stars outside the Spirit Abundance World. Occasionally, they would run into patrol squads who were checking the identities of those who entered and left the camp. When they saw Deacon Tang who was a pretty influential figure at the moment, they allowed them to pass without any questions.

Just like that, Shang Xia and Huang Yu, 2 foreign cultivators from the Spirit Luxuriant World, managed to saunter into one of the camps where experts from the Spirit Abundance World would be sent to the Azure Oddity World.

Rather than heading to the Azure Oddity World immediately, Huang Yu and Shang Xia went to modify some formations on several flying ships.

Shang Xia tried replicating whatever he remembered from Chu Jia’s formation and it actually allowed the formations to work a lot more efficiently. When traveling through the sea of stars, it would definitely save them a few pieces of essence crystals.

As someone who had a pretty important role, Tang Fengxiang had close to 20 flying ships under his command. With Shang Xia working his half-assed magic on all of them, the number of essence crystals saved would be a considerable sum!

As for where Tang Fengxiang would use those essence crystals... Shang Xia and Huang Yu wouldn’t care and neither would they ask.

During their time in the camp, there were orders to check everyone to ensure they weren’t spies from another world, but the matter fizzled out eventually.

Obviously, without a True Immortal personally taking charge of the operation, no one had the confidence to find the tracks of foreign experts.

During that period of time, Huang Yu learned what happened to the Heavenly Lake Elysium after he left. He also heard what happened next. Not only did Shang Xia steal the Heaven Supporting Jade Pillar, but he even managed to destroy a True Immortal’s projection that contained a portion of his divine soul and Void Origin! Even after experiencing countless storms in his time as a spy, Huang Yu was utterly dumbfounded by Shang Xia’s achievements.

When he heard about the Frost Wave and Shang Xia’s analysis, he eventually sighed, “This matter isn’t something you or I can take part in at the moment. Even our Spirit Luxuriant World don’t have the qualifications to stick our leg in this if we’re alone...”

“Do you mean...” Shang Xia seemed to understand the hidden meaning behind his words.

“If the Frost Wave really originated from a world that the Spirit Abundance World set their sights on thousands of years ago, the level of the words would be extraordinarily high. It doesn’t matter if the Spirit Abundance World plans to risk it all to obtain a portion of benefits from them, or if they wish to seek out the actual location. I’m afraid they will need to gather a lot of power to do so!” Huang Yu explained.

During the process, Shang Xia also carefully examined the Spirituality of the North.

With Huang Yu’s assistance, Shang Xia managed to extract a formless ball of light that emitted a faint glow.

Carefully inspecting it, Shang Xia noticed that the Spirituality of the North seemed to resemble some sort of ointment. After keeping it in his Spatial Pouch for a day, he discovered a good half of it had disappeared. His Spatial Pouch also grew much larger than before and it gained a whole 10 cubic feet worth of space!

That wasn’t all. Shang Xia also discovered that the space contained in his Spatial Pouch was much sturdier as the quality of the pouch increased slightly.

Since Shang Xia obtained the Spirituality of the North, the aurora borealis was left for Huang Yu.

Currently, Huang Yu’s cultivation was at the third element of the Martial Dipper Realm. He already made preparations to refine his fourth fate dipper, but the energy contained in the aurora borealis wasn’t suited for his fourth fate dipper. Shang Xia felt that it would be more appropriate for him to use it as his fifth fate dipper.

After Shang Xia completed the modifications of the formations on the flying ships, Deacon Tang kept his promise and sent Huang Yu and Shang Xia to the Azure Oddity World.

Before they left, Tang Fengxiang managed to produce 2 identity tokens from the Heaven Embroidery Palace that he got from god knows where. He handed it to Shang Xia and Huang Yu as a token of appreciation for their work on the flying ships.

However... According to Huang Yu, there was no need to think too much of his token of gratitude. Tang Fengxiang’s position in the Heaven Embroidery Palace was pretty much at the same level as inner disciples. Obtaining 2 outer disciple tokens was nothing too difficult for him.

Of course, in the eyes of the 9 great powers of the Spirit Abundance World, the identity tokens were as good as scrap metal. However, to those smaller powers, the identity token would work well to prove their status.

At the very least, they didn’t run into any trouble or people intentionally making things difficult for them as they made their way to the Azure Oddity World. They even received quite a few perks along the way.

Of course... Even without the identity tokens, those 2 weren’t going to suffer any sort of grievances.

After half a month of flight, passing through several regions of space, Shang Xia and Huang Yu finally arrived on the closest populated landmass in the vast sea of stars around the Azure Oddity World.

Tens of thousands of miles away from the Azure Oddity World, the powers of various worlds had already gathered. The protection formation of the Azure Oddity World had been torn apart a long time ago as the high-level experts who arrived back then already infiltrated the world. The Azure Oddity World had been taken over and it was a matter of time before the various powers went to split up their spoils.
