Chapter 1020: PUT YOUR HANDS UP, YOU’RE SURROUNDED

If the influence of the World’s Will was weaker when they were fighting above the heavenly screen earlier, entering the world was a completely different story. The World’s Will was able to greatly suppress them to prevent whatever they thought they would be able to do.

It was difficult for them to absorb world origin to recover, and their inner qi flow was slightly impeded. Their domains were suppressed and their combat strength was greatly reduced.

Their expressions changed slightly and they realized why the various worlds sent 5 True Immortals to surround Meng Yuanxiu’s Elysium back then and after 1 of them was killed, they increased the number of True Immortals to 6…

Kou Chongxue and Lu Wuzi quickly noticed that Shang Xia, who was flying casually behind them, didn’t seem to be affected by the sense of rejection at all. At the very least, there weren\'t any signs of him feeling any sign of discomfort.

“Why don’t you seem suppressed by the World’s Will?” Lu Wuzi asked in a strange voice. Everything he thought he knew about Shang Xia was flying through the window and he realized that after Shang Xia’s advancement, nothing seemed to make sense any more.

With a soft sigh, Shang Xia explained, “Senior Lu, you might not know, but now that I have broken through, I am unable to perfectly avoid the suppression of the World’s Will like before. I am definitely feeling a little resistance, but it’s just not as much as what you’re feeling…”

Unable to think of a response, Lu Wuzi simply turned back and ignored the kid. He made up his mind not to talk to Shang Xia during the expedition any longer in case he burst a blood vessel in his brain.

The blow he had been dealt was just too damn strong!

… Whatever it was, they were no longer in their world. Yuan Cangming was able to retreat to his Elysium instantly, but the 3 of them were unable to teleport into Yuan Cangming’s Elysium directly. They could only make their world over to the Eastern Nuanyuan Continent slowly.

As the trio flew about in the Azure Flame World, they didn’t dare to open spatial tunnels randomly. Otherwise, they might fall prey to Yuan Cangming and the plans experts of the Azure Flame World prepared.

Of course… Even if they were suppressed, the speed of True Immortals was nothing to scoff at. Flying over to Yuan Cangming’s Elysium would take them barely an hour.

As they made their way across the Azure Flame World, the 3 of them didn’t seem anxious in the slightest. They even started to observe their surroundings when flying to take note of the preparations the experts of the Azure Flame World made to resist the invasion.

“Looks like they deployed everything in their power to prepare for this. Yuan Cangming managed to rally every single faction to the cause… We’re going to have to pay a hefty price this time…” Lu Wuzi sighed softly. However, he didn’t seem too troubled at all. From what he knew about their forces, even if they had to fight in a foreign land, he was sure they would be able to completely suppress the Azure Flame World.

Shang Xia chuckled in response, “If we can break the Elysium quickly and exterminate Yuan Cangming’s soul, attacking the Azure Flame World would be much easier…”

Kou Chongxue muttered in a low voice, “Do not ever underestimate the resistance of a world that is under the threat of being conquered. Once the Azure Flame World falls, almost every cultivator above the Martial Intent Realm will be greatly affected. Let’s not talk about if they would be able to advance further on the road of cultivation in the future. They would be lucky to maintain their current cultivation realm. There would be a huge batch of experts in the Martial Extermination and Martial Dipper Realms who would experience cultivation deviation and they might just lose their lives. As for cultivators in the Martial Realm and Martial Extremity Realm, they might not seem affected at that moment, but unless they are geniuses, they wouldn’t be able to go too far on the path of cultivation in the future.”

“Of course, this will only happen to cultivators who are already living in the Azure Flame World and those born soon after. After they are assimilated and brought over to our Spirit Luxuriant World, they would take a few generations in order to fully integrate into our world before nothing else will get in the way of their cultivation.” Kou Chongxue concluded.

His words allowed Shang Xia and Lu Wuzi to fully understand the cruelty of a war between worlds.

Even though the 3 of them would be able to easily get rid of the defenses built by the various factions, they didn’t do so.

That could be said to be some sort of an unspoken rule among the countless worlds in the vast sea of stars. Even if they hadn’t come into contact with other worlds, it was an instinctual response not to interfere with cultivators of a lower realm than themselves.

As their conversation quickly concluded, they arrived at the Eastern Nuanyuan Continent where the Elysium was located.

The guards and various powers that gathered around the Cangming Elysium had already retreated and it was clear that Yuan Cangming had done a good job in preparing for a battle between True Immortals. If anyone else were to remain, they would only be collateral damage.

“Let me give it a go first!” Lu Wuzi said suddenly as he took a step forward.

Among the 7 True Immortals of the Spirit Luxuriant World, he was in the most awkward position.

Of the 3 True Immortals who took part in the expedition to the Azure Flame World, he was also the weakest among them. As such, he wanted to prove himself by taking as many responsibilities as he could throughout the expedition. Only then would he be able to justify the amount of resources he received when splitting up the Azure Flame World. Also, that would be the only way for him to receive the support of True Immortals Kou and Shang when it came to fighting for benefits with the other True Immortals of the Spirit Luxuriant World.

Stretching his hand out to make a simple gesture, the heaven and earth qi contained in his domain started to surge. Massive clouds gathered above the Elysium and it quickly turned into a watery mirror. The Cangming Elysium was completely covered by the mirror, and so was its surroundings that were filled with all sorts of formations.

The experts stationed within the Elysium quickly noticed his actions. Mist emerged from within the Elysium and covered more than half the reflection in the giant mirror.

What Lu Wuzi used was something similar to the Halo Mirror he had been using before entering the Martial Void Realm. In the past, his skill was pretty similar, just on a much smaller scale.

After his advancement, he managed to develop the ability of the mirror into a secret art of his own and he no longer needed to use the Halo Mirror!

Shang Xia glanced all around him and noticed that there were places without cover. The experts in the Elysium were trying all they could to interfere with Lu Wuzi’s secret art, but they didn’t seem thorough enough. There were many spots not covered in the reflection.

“Is this an intentional weakness they are leaving or are their restrictions just not up to par…” Lu Wuzi stared at the spots that weren’t covered with a suspicious look. He casually tapped several spots where the ground below was exposed, but he quickly discovered that the space there was twisted.

“Young Friend Shang, you were right… The Elysium suffered heavy damages and those regions of weakness were created because of it…” Lu Wuzi quickly evaluated and seemed a little excited at the discovery.

The strength of a True Immortal who relied on their Elysium to advance was closely tied to the state of their Elysium. Since the Cangming Elysium was damaged, Yuan Cangming’s strength would also be affected. His ability to restore his energy during battles would definitely take a huge hit.

After a moment of contemplation, Lu Wuzi waved his sleeves in the air and the mirror that formed above the Cangming Elysium shattered. They transformed into countless ice spikes that fell accurately on those spots that weren’t protected.

Lu Wuzi’s domain allowed him to be adept at controlling things related to the weather, but as the ice spikes fell, they eventually melted and turned into water that splashed down on the land.

“Hmm? Yuan Cangming didn’t make a move earlier. There seems to be a formation expert among them!” Lu Wuzi could tell that Yuan Cangming didn’t scatter his attack earlier. Instead, it was dealt with by powerful formations that lay around the Elysium.

“They most likely have a rank five Formation Grandmaster among them who is supported by a bunch of rank four Formation Grandmasters… They barely managed to deal with your attack earlier, but that should be the limit of their abilities.” Kou Chongxue explained.

“It’s possible that they’re setting up a trap by making it look like they barely dealt with Senior Lu’s attack…” Shang Xia muttered at the side.

Clasping his hands together, Lu Wuzi growled, “Let’s find out, shall we!” Drawing on the power of the heaven and earth qi around, a massive vortex formed in front of it. In several breaths of time, it extended to form a giant tornado that ripped into the void above the Elysium.

As the tornado ripped into the distance, it destroyed countless formations in its path. Lights flickered as restrictions and formations were activated, but they quickly dimmed as they were torn to shreds.

The formation experts of the Azure Flame World quickly thought of a reaction. More than half the formations around the Cangming Elysium roared into life as heaven and earth qi in a 1000 mile radius started to gather together.

The Formation Grandmaster of the Azure Flame World actually snatched heaven and earth qi from Lu Wuzi’s skill to weaken the tornado that had formed.

Indeed… With almost all the heaven and earth qi in the region being sapped away, the power of the tornado immediately decreased by half. It was no longer able to tear through the formations like before.

“They’re trying to buy time…” Shang Xia spoke suddenly. “From the looks of it, Yuan Cangming’s injuries are really serious. The Formation Grandmaster is trying to buy as much as time as he can for Yuan Cangming to recover and for them to repair the Cangming Elysium!”

Shang Xia felt the least suppression from the world and he could vaguely feel some strange fluctuations in the World Origin Source.

The Cangming Elysium that was protected by many layers of formation was emitting powerful fluctuations as though it was breathing.

“We’ll have to destroy this system for formations then. Let’s see if Yuan Cangming will be able to hold out then!” Kou Chongxue muttered. However, the Hidden Frost Sword had already started moving halfway through his sentence. It drew a mysterious arc through the skies and it seemed to be able to separate the heavens and earth.

Kou Chongxue’s domain contained strong destructive properties. If he wanted to destroy the resistance they were putting up, there was no better way than to go all in. Otherwise, he would need to waste even more energy if he tried other ways.

At the same time, Lu Wuzi, who seemed to already know how to coordinate with Kou Chonxue, scattered the tornado he created as a powerful breeze took its place. It followed behind Kou Chongxue’s sword qi and prepared to pierce deeper into the formations as soon as an opening was created.
