Splitting the Heavens

The Sea Dragging Rope used by Hou Tang of the Seven Pillar Island truly possessed some miraculous properties. However, Shang Xia refused to believe that it would be able to hold out so well against a high-level True Immortal and a third tier True Immortal.

They failed to take care of Shen Chongshan and Hou Tang, even though Shen Chongshan was not doing much.

“They’re clearly not giving it their all…”

Even though his senses were disrupted by the chaotic space, Shang Xia could easily judge the situation there.

When he noticed Shen Chongshan activating the Myriad Tinted Cloud Talisman, he finally guessed why the True Immortals of the Dachen Dynasty had been going easy the entire time.

Their true goal was probably for Shen Chongshan to activate the talisman!

However… From how slow it was being activated, one could tell that it needed a lot of energy… Even Shen Chongshan, a second tier True Immortal, needed to give it his all and be protected by someone else while doing it.

From the looks of it… The talisman wasn’t suitable to be used in an intense battle if everything was happening quickly!

When Shang Xia was still deep in thought, Shen Chongshan finally activated the talisman. A burst of energy that even the fluctuating space couldn’t distort was produced, as Hou Tang and Shen Chongshan’s figures disappeared within. Even Shang Xia was unable to determine their presence once they were swallowed up in that burst of energy.

That wasn’t all. As the energy produced by the talisman continued to spread, it resembled a small island that appeared in the region of chaotic space.

Shang Xia gasped softly as he retreated, but he was also swallowed by the rapidly expanding ball of energy.

Fortunately… By the time it reached Shang Xia, it seemed to have reached its limit. Although Shang Xia was swallowed by the ball of energy, he was barely at the edges. He could still tell the direction back to the Star Beast Nest in case anything happened.

As such… Even though he was swallowed into the ball of energy that had turned into a strange cloud, and his divine soul was slightly disrupted, he didn’t panic at all.

“Oh? What an amazing talisman…” Shang Xia was still in the mood to appreciate his work. “In the past, I have been thinking of finding a way to verify the power of the talisman… I didn’t think that I would be dragged into this mess the moment Shen Chongshan left.”

Fortunately… I ran quickly. If I was stuck in the middle of that, I might not be able to find my way out easily.

Feeling the presence of his clone outside the cloud, Shang Xia rushed out from it.

The moment he left, he could feel the strangely twisted feeling of his divine soul disappearing.

“This… This is only the effect I felt at the edge of the cloud…” Shang Xia couldn’t help but turn to stare at the giant cloud that appeared in the region of chaotic space with a trace of lingering fear.

Of course, with the activation of the talisman, Shang Xia lost his opportunity to follow Shen Chongshan. So did the experts of the Dachen Dynasty, and they probably wouldn’t even know where they were in the giant cloud.

As Shang Xia watched the cloud in the region of chaotic space slowly becoming blurry, Shang Xia could tell that the True Immortals of the Dachen Dynasty were probably still alive. However, there was no way they were catching up with Shen Chongshan and Hou Tang.

The might of the Myriad Tinted Cloud Talisman was much stronger than Shang Xia anticipated.

Actually… Shen Chognshan wasn’t even able to bring out the greatest effects of the talisman. He only revealed the defensive, evasive, and concealment properties of the talisman and was able to escape from the pursuit of the True Immortals of the Dachen Dynasty.

Strictly speaking, Shen Chongshan wasted the talisman in order to escape!

Of course, he couldn’t care less since his life was on the line.

Shang Xia, on the other hand… He saw everything clearly. During the battle earlier, Shang Xia saw how the high-level True Immortal from the Dachen Dynasty let them go on purpose. He actually had 3 chances to get rid of Hou Tang’s strange technique and stop him from using the Sea Dragging Rope to pull Shen Chongshan away, but he didn’t do so.

Only after Shen Chongshan activated the talisman did Shang Xia realize that their true goal was probably for him to waste it!

Shang Xia clearly recalled how Gong Zhuo said that they would need 3 Myriad Tinted Cloud Talismans if they wished to be certain of their chances of success. Shen Chongshan had already gotten 2 of them from Shang Xia previously.

If he wasted the only Myriad Tinted Cloud Talisman he got his hands on… That would mean that the Wanyun Association wouldn’t be completely safe!

Shang Xia frowned and wondered how the members of the Dachen Dynasty were so sure that Shen Chongshan only had a single Myriad Tinted Cloud Talisman.

As he watched the cloud slowly dissipate, it seemed to clash with the flow of space around as the region turned increasingly chaotic.

Shang Xia might not be afraid that he would be affected by the streams of chaotic space, but he didn’t wish to waste his inner qi if he could help it.

Everything looked like a giant farce as their massive offensive turned out to be useless.

Of course, that was what it seemed like to the members of the Essence Xing World. To Shang Xia, it wasn’t as though he gained nothing. At the very least, he gained some information about the state of conflict in the Essence Xing World and understood that the situation was a lot more chaotic than he expected.

Turning around, Shang Xia prepared to make his way back.

Because he hadn’t received any reports from his clone, he flew back in a relaxed manner. However, as he slowly made his way back, the connection between his clone and himself grew stronger and he stopped suddenly. It was as though his gaze could pierce through the region of chaotic space to see what was happening, and he saw that some people actually came to look for him.

There was also more than 1 batch of experts who came, and they were waiting outside the Star Beast Nest.

After his observation, he noticed 2 batches of experts and they seemed really respectful as they patiently waited for the Talisman Grandmaster who remained within the Star Beast Nest. Even though both groups looked like they were on extremely unfriendly terms, they didn’t attack each other outside the Star Beast Nest.

Of course… The main factor that was stopping them from doing anything stupid was probably the aura of a fourth tier True Immortal residing in the Star Beast Nest.

Slowly making his way closer, Shang Xia’s connection with his clone grew stronger and he could see the individuals waiting outside. What surprised him was the fact that he actually knew those who came!
