Chapter 1028: Bait

Even though they knew they were somewhat late, the True Immortals who arrived discovered that their timing wasn’t too bad after feeling the remnant world origin that scattered into the void.

If a world was protected by its heavenly screen, world origin wouldn’t easily leak.

Only an invasion from another world would cause the world origin of a world to leak as they would definitely damage the heavenly screen while doing so.

Along the same line, after a world was conquered, the World’s Will would probably be split up as the world is divided into parts. With the heavenly screen forming around the individual parts, world origin shouldn’t leak…

That was why when they arrived, the True Immortals of the various worlds could determine that even though the Spirit Luxuriant World had destroyed a part of the heavenly screen, the aboriginal cultivators of the Azure Flame World were still resisting.

They truly came at the best time!

With so many of them there, there was no way they would return empty-handed!

They felt amazing at that current moment. There was no better feeling than allowing multiple sides to go all out in a battle and exhaust each other before swooping in at the very last second to claim the spoils of the battle.

“At the end of the day, the Spirit Luxuriant World is still a new world. They might have a few geniuses, but their foundations are far too shallow. For the Azure Flame World to be able to resist for so long… That would mean that the high-level experts of the Spirit Luxuriant World are far too lacking when it comes to overall combat strength.”

True Immortal Yuan of the Spirit Tinkle World evaluated seriously and received a lot of grunts of agreement.

“Everyone, let’s head over to take a look. The spatial disturbance stretches 300,000 miles and we can’t travel through space. It will take us some time in order to arrive…” A clear voice rang in their minds and serious expressions appeared on the faces of many True Immortals present.

Zhuge Xiang’s figure appeared in front of everyone and they discovered that his true body actually came along.

“Guards Commander Zhuge, please.” Several True Immortals spoke in unison.

Zhuge Xiang’s gaze swept over those present. As an important figure who had taken up the post of the Star Origin Guards Commander for close to a hundred years, how could he not know what they were thinking?

Even though the Star Origin Guards had no choice but to interfere in a war between worlds, there was no excuse. They broke their stance of neutrality. It was also why the True Immortals of the various worlds didn’t mind trailing behind him and watching what he would do.

One could easily imagine that the reputation the Star Origin City built for more than a thousand years would suffer greatly with his decision.

That was why he didn’t move despite the urgings of the various True Immortals. Instead, he stood in front of everyone and maintained a professional smile on his face. “I believe the Spirit Luxuriant World should be able to keep the benefits they already received. What do all of you think?”

After he spoke, Zhuge Xiang didn’t restrain his aura as the might of a fourth tier Martial Void Realm True Immortal was released. It seemed as though he had become one with the world around him.

“Dao Harmony…”

The thought flashed through the minds of the True Immortals around but they maintained the smiles on their faces as they replied, “Of course…”

Nodding slightly, Zhuge Xiang muttered, “Our Star Origin City only wants something from the Elysium. We won’t try to obtain anything else. I believe the True Immortals from the Spirit Luxuriant World won’t let me down.” The void behind him turned murky as he spoke.

The disturbance that extended across 300,000 miles might affect the speed of those True Immortals, but there were more than 10 of them who came. Nothing stood in their way as they rushed towards their destination.

Indeed… As they made their way over to where the Azure Flame World was supposed to be, the spatial fluctuations started to calm down. However, the world origin that leaked out from the world became even more obvious.

All of them knew that they were closing in on their target. The foreign and lonely Azure Flame World was within reach!

After crossing another 10,000 miles or so, they discovered that the spatial fluctuations had disappeared completely. The only thing left was a region of distorted space…

“The Azure Flame World is gone… Are we too late?!” One of the True Immortals from the Azure Star World couldn’t help but ask.

True Immortal Hua Yu from the Spirit Thistle World pointed in a certain direction and muttered, “We can still feel the remnants of the World’s Will. It seems to have gone in that direction. This is strange… The Spirit Luxuriant World didn’t actually exterminate the Azure Flame World’s Will… Did they just pull the Azure Flame World over?”

“They can’t possibly not know how to exterminate a World’s Will, right? Are they planning to bring it back to the Spirit Luxuriant World to assimilate it into their world?” Another True Immortal said, half-jokingly.

Unfortunately, no one laughed and he was stuck in an awkward situation.

“There is no doubt about it. This was where the Azure Flame World used to be!” Liu Yunzi of the Spirit Mammoth World muttered. Like Xiong Chunyang of the Spirit Abundance World, he was also a third tier Martial Void Realm True Immortal.

“Now comes the question… Are we going to chase them down to take a look at what is going on?” True Immortal Hua Yu smiled and looked at the rest. She didn’t seem too interested in obtaining the remains of the Azure Flame World.

Everyone present could probably guess what the Spirit Luxuriant World did. They were no fools. They knew that the Spirit Luxuriant World probably used some strange method to retain a portion of the Azure Flame World with its original World’s Will to send it in another direction before bringing other parts that contained the Azure Flame World’s essence back to the Spirit Luxuriant World.

Logically speaking, they should be looking for the fragments that were being transported back to the Spirit Luxuriant World. Those should be where the essence of the Azure Flame World lay.

However, the sea of stars was vast and they had no idea which direction the experts of the Spirit Luxuriant World left in.

If all of them went out together to look for those fragments aimlessly, it would be a colossal waste of time if they failed to find anything.

If they split up… Their collective strength would weaken considerably!

One had to know that in order to carry out such a hasty operation, the various worlds only sent out a couple of True Immortals. All of them had their own agendas, and they weren’t exactly friendly with each other either.

If they chose to follow the traces of the leaking world origin… All of them knew that it had to be a delay tactic the Spirit Luxuriant World was using to waste their time.

Even so… The more they thought about it, the more they were tempted to go after it. After all, for them to be able to feel the World’s Will so clearly, the portion that was left behind had to be a piece of juicy meat!

Perhaps the remains that the Spirit Luxuriant World left behind was barely anything if they had to split it among so many people present, but if a single party obtained it, it might be a great boost even to a Spirit World!

The next question quickly came. Of True Immortals present who came from the 4 great Spirit Worlds and 6 Azure Worlds that were connected to the Star Origin City, who would be able to devour the bait the Spirit Luxuriant World left behind?

The intentions of the Spirit Luxuriant World were as clear as day. However, it was extremely effective as complicated emotions could be seen on the faces of those present.

“These True Immortals of the Spirit Luxuriant World really know how to mess people…” The True Immortal who made the awkward comment spoke again, but he was ignored as per usual.

Other than the traces of World’s Will being obvious and pointing them in the right direction, there were spatial fluctuations everywhere else. Their tracks had been completely wiped away and if the True Immortals of the other worlds wanted to give chase, they would have to go in blind and rely on their luck.

Standing in place, Zhuge Xiang seemed to transform into a statue as he closed his eyes. He ignored everything else the rest said.

Liu Jiuzhen, who came along with Zhuge Xiang, saw what was going on and he quickly approached the Guards Commander to whisper in his ear, “Commander Xiang, what do we do now?”

“Wait.” Zhuge Xiang didn’t bother opening his eyes and replied with a single word.

The Star Origin Guards came for the Heaven Observation Elysium. They weren’t interested in anything else. Since they knew what was left behind was bait, there was no need for them to care about it.

Zhuge Xiang and Liu Jiuzhen didn’t hide their conversation from the others. When True Immortal Liu Yunzi from the Spirit Mammoth World heard their conversation, he muttered, “This isn’t a bad plan. The True Immortals of the Spirit Luxuriant World will definitely need to open more spatial tunnels in order to return to their world. The moment they do, the spatial fluctuations will expose them!”

The True Immortal from the Azure Sea World seemed pretty familiar with True Immortal Liu Yunzi and he couldn’t help but follow up, “Will we be able to make it in time?”

“We might not be able to prevent them from bringing back what they obtained, but we might not be completely out of options as they make their way back…” True Immortal Liu Yunzi smiled while turning to look at Xiong Chunyang of the Spirit Abundance World with a profound gaze.

The Spirit Abundance World knew where the Spirit Luxuriant World was, but they never revealed it to the others.

There was no doubt about it. Even though the Spirit Luxuriant World had already completed their world ascension, the Spirit Abundance World hadn’t given up their quest to devour them. Their intentions were also painfully obvious. They wanted to devour the Spirit Luxuriant World alone! At the very least, they wanted to be the first ones there to grab the biggest share of the pie.

The Star Origin City was said to be a neutral zone in the vast sea of stars, and its location was known to all. They also welcomed the various worlds in connecting a fixed spatial tunnel to them. However… In order to protect the privacy of the various worlds, the Star Origin City would only allow the various worlds to initiate contact with them. They also employed many methods to prevent anyone from tracking the path of those spatial tunnels.

In other words, even if the Spirit Luxuriant World created a fixed spatial tunnel to the Star Origin City, not even Zhuge Xiang knew where the location of the Spirit Luxuriant World was!

However… If the True Immortals of the various worlds were to follow the tracks of the True Immortals of the Spirit Luxuriant World as they brought fragments of the Azure Flame World back… Their location in the vast sea of stars would immediately be revealed to the various worlds!

Was it something the True Immortals of the Spirit Luxuriant World did because they were helpless, or did they no longer care because they were confident in their abilities?
