Chapter 1183: Without Assimilating His Excess Energy

Surprisingly, the ambush that he was expecting to come never happened. He released his divine soul instantly, covering an area of a thousand miles around himself. Without the suppression of the Essence Ping World’s Will, his divine soul could reach a lot further than when he was within the world.

Shang Xia quickly discovered 3 different tracks, and he didn’t doubt that they belonged to Wen Juxiang, Gao Qin, and Hua Jianlou.

Even though they started to run in different directions after leaving the Essence Ping World, they hadn’t fully left Shang Xia’s range of detection.

From the obvious traces of their movement in space, Shang Xia determined that it hadn’t been long since they made their escape.

Actually... From the time they were forced out of the Essence Ping World to the time Shang Xia destroyed the clone, only a few breaths of time had passed.

As for the reason they didn’t wait for Shang Xia outside the Essence Ping World to sneak attack him, Shang Xia knew that they had their own concerns. Not only did all of them harbor their own schemes, but all 3 of them suffered various extents of injuries.

It was especially so for Wen Juxiang. He was injured by Shang Xia way before they entered the Essence Ping World, and he was injured once again by the Star Origin Lord’s clone.

Even if he left the Essence Ping World and was no longer restrained by the World’s Will, he would be unable to recover in a short amount of time.

Shang Xia didn’t care about anyone other than Wen Juxiang. After all, it was his best chance to beat up a weakened enemy.

However, Wen Juxiang was no fool. He probably expected Shang Xia to chase after him the moment they left the Essence Ping World. Actually, he wasn’t just afraid of Shang Xia. He was afraid the rest would also target him and he was actually the first to flee.

Shang Xia could tell the general direction Wen Juxiang had made his escape, but from how crafty the fellow was, he definitely knew that he had to take precautions. He probably wouldn’t just be changing up the directly he was flying in...

Shang Xia thought about what he could do before a surge of Six Direction Qi came from his dantian. With even more energy coming from the Crimson Soul Tablet after absorbing so much from the clone, Shang Xia knew that it would be best if he entered seclusion that very moment.

He schemed against the Star Origin Lord’s clone in the Essence Ping World and obtained a large amount of purified power of the stars. Compared to the spring he absorbed both types of energies from, the energy that came from plunging the Crimson Soul Tablet into the clone’s chest was countless times more and of higher quality. It was like comparing a tiny turbid puddle to a massive lake!

Despite the intense urge to enter seclusion, Shang Xia didn’t wish to give up killing Wen Juxiang. That was a high-level True Immortal they were talking about! Moreover, he was from an Essence World. The moment someone like him escaped, Shang Xia might not get the chance to kill him again. He would also have to worry about retaliation from the other party.

To allow him to get away...

Shang Xia suddenly thought of something. Since Wen Juxiang was heavily injured at the moment, he was definitely going to try to run away, but the question was where he would be running to!

From how he didn’t hesitate to escape, he was clearly wary of Gao Qin and Hua Jianlou even though he cooperated with them earlier. That would mean that his best bet would be to escape to the Essence Hong World.

However, from what Shang Xia understood from Hua Jianlou, the spatial tunnel in the Star Origin Dao Field that was connected to the other worlds was sealed off at the moment, and it was the only way members of the Essence Hong World could enter that region of space.

In order words, no matter how Wen Juxiang tried to misdirect everyone by traveling in different directions in space, he had no choice but to return to the spatial tunnel near the Star Origin dao Field.

The only question was if Tong Yutang had already consolidated his power to control the Star Origin Guards and if the Star Origin Dao Field was still in a sealed state.

After thinking about it, Shang Xia didn’t care about the consumption of his inner qi and he immediately tore open a spatial tunnel in the void. When he reappeared, he was already tens of thousands of miles away.

In order to use up the excess energy within his body, Shang Xia opened spatial tunnels through the void without a care in the world and his journey was extremely quick.

By the time he arrived at the space outside the Star Origin Dao Field, he felt a lot less bloated than before from the excess energy. His ability to create spatial tunnels also became a lot more intricate than before. It was especially so after he managed to infuse the properties of his Six Harmony Teleportation Talisman into his technique. Not only did it allow him to travel further and create more stable spatial tunnels, it also allowed the spatial tunnels he created to be more resistant to external disturbances and it became even easier to pass through certain levels of protection.

...

When Shang Xia stood in the void, he could already see the Land of Star Origin drifting slowly in space. However, it was different from before. The biggest change was that there was a powerful spatial barrier covering it, and Shang Xia also decided it was no longer appropriate to call it the Land of Star Origin. He would refer to it as the Star Origin Dao Field from then on.

In the past, with the exception of Star Origin City, high-level experts were able to travel to the wilderness whenever they liked, However, it seemed impossible now.

There was a massive floating platform that had been intentionally established outside the Star Origin Dao Field, and it was where people could enter the Star Origin Dao Field. The platform was also heavily guarded by the Star Origin Guards.

Even though it didn’t affect how people could still travel to and from the Star Origin Dao Field, it was a lot more restrictive compared to the time when high-level experts could descend on the Star Origin Dao Field whenever they wished.

Shang Xia was able to see the Star Origin Dao Field, but he was still quite some distance away. There was no way they would be able to discover his presence yet, and he had a feeling that with his new mastery in creating spatial tunnels, he would be able to pass through the spatial barrier and enter the Star Origin Dao Field directly.

That was perhaps his greatest gain when it came to creating spatial tunnels.

Of course, being able to enter the Star Origin Dao Field was one thing. Doing it was another.

Without the Six Harmony Teleportation Talisman, even if he was able to pass through the spatial barrier, he wouldn’t be able to avoid being detected. He didn’t wish to alert the Star Origin Guards at the moment.

Since the seal around the Star Origin Dao Field had been lifted, Shang Xia had a feeling Kou Chongxue had already returned to the Spirit Luxuriant World. That would mean that a reliable ally was gone, and he would have to search for and kill Wen Juxiang alone.

Fortunately, there was only a single point of exit and entry to the Star Origin Dao Field. If Wen Juxiang couldn’t travel as quickly as Shang Xia, that would mean that he would eventually appear in the space around the platform if he wished to return to the Essence Hong World.

What Shang Xia needed to do was to sit by and wait for his target to appear.

He wasn’t actually planning on hiding in the void and waiting for Wen Juxiang to arrive. Instead, he created a clone to deal with matters in Star Origin City.

Also, by creating the clone, he could get rid of the overflowing amount of Six Direction Qi in his dantian. He also created a spatial tunnel to the platform and made his way over.

The appearance of a True Immortal quickly attracted the attention of the Star Origin Guards.

Actually, the Star Origin Guards weren’t alert enough to discern the appearance of a True Immortal. However, there was a formation in the platform that could detect the level of incoming experts.

Whatever it was, the Star Origin Guards didn’t seem to care as they simply swept their gazes over the clone before allowing him to enter the city.

Returning to Star Origin City after being in the Essence Ping World, Shang Xia felt as though everything was the same, but the people he was seeing were slightly different.

Star Origin City was as bustling as before. Other than the platform outside the Star Origin Dao Field where people could arrive, the main traffic still came from the Star Relay that held the many spatial tunnels connected to the various worlds.

Unlike the Star Origin City of the past, the current state of the city seemed a lot cleaner and orderly. However, there was a sense of unease that Shang Xia couldn’t shake off no matter what, and the laid-back and casual atmosphere in the city was nowhere to be seen.

Shang Xia immediately connected the reason for the strange happenings to Tong Yutang. Clearly, after the new Guards Commander took on his post and controlled the Star Origin Dao Field, he increased the influence of the Star Origin Guards on the city. Perhaps there were many different reasons included in the change, but Tong Yutang seemed to be far lacking when it came to the confident way Zhuge Xiang had been running the city the entire time.

After sending out a secret transmission, Shang Xia quickly located the secret meeting point the Tongyou Institution established in the city and ran into Feng Ziying who had already become a Captain of the Fourth Camp.

“Brat, where the hell have you been?! Why did you disappear for such a long time without sending back any news?! If the Spirit Luxuriant World didn’t send back news that your clone was still present in the institution, Kou Chongxue would have thought that you were killed out there!” Feng Ziying snapped, but he seemed very happy to see Shang Xia again.

Shang Xia chuckled in response, “Oh? Did Patriarch Kou already leave the city? How long was I away?”

“Not too long after the Star Origin Dao Field reappeared, he brought those Formation Masters of the Azure Oddity World and left.” Feng Ziying shot Shang Xia a strange gaze before he continued, “Why do you need to ask how long you have been away? According to the Spirit Luxuriant Calendar, it’s the end of the 14th year...”

“Oh.” Shang Xia grunted once and sighed softly, “Time passes really quickly indeed... It has already been almost half a year...”

“Where the hell have you been for the last month?” Feng Ziying snapped again, seeing as Shang Xia hadn’t answered his question.

“I went to an Essence World hidden in the void!” Shang Xia casually replied, shocking Feng Ziying with the bomb he had thrown out of the blue.

Soon, he described everything that happened after he left the Star Observatory through the secret passage, including how he held many Stargazers hostage. Tong Yutang’s ploy of working together with True Immortals of the Spirit Abundance World, Spirit Mammoth World, and Spirit Tinkle World to kill Zhuge Xiang was also revealed, and at the very end, he spoke about how he entered the Essence Ping World while chasing after the Star Origin Lord Robe. He also talked about how he discovered 2 different types of energies that made up the world origin of the Essence Ping World, and the Star Origin Lord’s plan to assimilate himself and replace the Essence Ping World’s Will, before speaking about how the True Immortals who entered were forced to leave.

By the time he was done speaking, Feng Ziying was already completely flabbergasted and was in a state of utter confusion by the amazing stories that Shang Xia was telling him.

After seeing how Feng Ziying still hadn’t recovered from the shock, Shang Xia sighed softly, “Well... Why don’t you talk about what happened in Star Origin City in the time that passed?”
