Splitting the Heavens

Chapter 1037: First Appearance of ‘Heaven Observation’

Lu Wuzi quickly entered seclusion due to the heavy injuries he suffered. With the support of Kou Chongxue and the Tongyou Institution, they received their first pot of gold after returning from the Azure Flame World.

When Lu Wuzi initially made his way back to his Ice Essence Sect, Kou Chongxue also made good on his promise and gave him the Origin Holy Artifact of the Cangming Elysium.

Even though so many benefits had been given away, there was no doubt that the Tongyou Institution was still the one who gained the most.

After all, Kou Chongxue and Shang Xia of the Tongyou Institution were the ones who took the lead in conquering the Azure Flame World. During the battle above the heavenly screen, Shang Xia turned the tides of battle by killing an expert of the Spirit Abundance World. As such, there was no doubt about it. The Cangming Elysium and its surrounding land belonged to the You Continent.

Other than the Ice Essence Sect and the Tongyou Institution, Yang Taihe’s Eternal Palace also managed to obtain one of the bigger Holy lands and a portion of land from the Western Wenchen Continent.

The Eternal Palace wouldn’t bother repairing the Holy Land. Instead, they threw it into their Elysium, allowing it to be absorbed completely.

As for the essence of the world contained in it, they separated it and sent it to the Liang Continent where they plundered the spirituality of the world.

When Yifeng tried to advance, the Tongyou Institution discovered that the strength of the Eternal Palace seemed to be heavily skewed towards the Liang Continent. Even though Yifeng failed in the end, the Eternal Palace didn’t seem to stop shifting themselves over.

The Northern Sea Mystic Sect chose 2 large masses of land next and one of them came from the Eastern Nuanyuan Continent while the other came from the Southern Yanlin Continent.

Essence contained in the land was equally distributed to the 3 continents they controlled. Without a doubt, the already massive Northern Sea Mystic Sect would only become even richer and more fertile.

The Yuanchen Sect came right after the Northern Sea Mystic Sect. With Huang Jinghan’s successful breakthrough, the Yuanchen Sect had 2 True Immortals. Moreover, Huang Jinghan took part in the operation to the Azure Flame World.

Of course, Yang Taihe and Zhang Xuansheng’s contribution to sacrifice a clone each to cover their escape was also extremely important.

From that point alone, Yang Taihe and Zhang Xuansheng made great contributions.

The Yuanchen Sect managed to obtain one of the less destroyed Holy Lands and a region of land from the Southern Yanlin Continent which was integrated into the Jing Continent.

The Divine Capital Sect came dead last and ranked behind the Yuanchen Sect.

Li Jidao’s performance wasn’t great, but neither did he disappoint the others. His cultivation wasn’t like Zhang Xuansheng or Yang Taihe who would enter the third tier Martial Void Realm and he couldn’t compare to the Tongyou Institution or the Yuanchen Sect who had 2 True Immortals. As a True Immortal who relied on his Elysium to advance, he couldn’t head over to the Azure Flame World like Lu Wuzi.

However, he was still a second tier Martial Void Realm True Immortal at the end of the day. As one of the longest-standing Elysiums, the Divine Capital Sect contributed a lot of manpower and resources to build the defense system of the Spirit Luxuriant World. As such, they obtained a good portion of the Eastern Nuanyuan Continent along with ten additional Star Ships of resources.

After the six major factions split up the continents among themselves, there was a third of the Western Wenchen Continent left, and a third of the Southern Yanlin Continent left. They were split evenly among the rest of the Spirit Luxuriant World.

There was also another exception which was made for the Yanlin Clan. Their Yanlin Holy Land was completely preserved and not split among the powers of the Spirit Luxuriant World.

As for the islands that existed on the seas of the continents they brought back, the great powers didn’t want to make themselves look too bad by taking all the benefits and decided to leave them to the other powers.

The only reason they did that was so that grudges wouldn’t start forming.

With Kou Chongxue’s protection, the Yanlin Clan could only move to the Jiao Continent. Their Holy Land was brought with them.

The Jiao Continent was where Kou Chongxue broke through to the Martial Void Realm, but in name, Holy Land could no longer belong solely to the Yanlin Clan. They would have to open it up to cultivators who had the qualifications to enter.

It was something the Holy Lands of the Azure Flame World established in the past anyway...

The Tongyou Institution might possess considerable might in the Jiao Continent, but the Jiao Continent couldn’t be said to fully be controlled by them yet.

Taking Millstone Mountain as the Tongyou Institution’s core of operations, they barely controlled a quarter of the Jiao Continent around it.

The Jiao Continent was vast, and it could even rank among the top 5 continents in terms of size in the Spirit Luxuriant World. Cultivators hadn’t even developed half of it. With the Yanlin Holy Land in the region, their development would speed up to a large extent.

The regions of land left behind by the great powers naturally couldn’t satisfy the various powers that owned their own Holy Lands or even factions with Martial Dipper Realm experts. The islands that were left behind were directly occupied by powers that established themselves in the vast oceans of the Spirit Luxuriant World.

Fortunately, there were close to 120 flying ships that carried all types of resources other than those land masses.

Even though the Divine Capital Sect took away 10 of the largest ones, the remaining 110 or so were enough to let the various powers fight over them for some time.

As the various powers and factions in the Spirit Luxuriant World fought for resources, they once again ushered in a period of explosive growth.

The growth wasn’t obvious in the world itself, but the speed at which the various factions and powers were strengthening was extremely clear.

Throughout the process, the Spirit Luxuriant World wasn’t disturbed or spied on.

With more than half a year of peace, the Spirit Luxuriant World seemed to properly embark on their path of improvement, they finally reopened the spatial tunnel to Star Origin City.

Shockingly enough, someone initiated the spatial transfer to the Spirit Luxuriant World the moment the spatial tunnel was reopened and his appearance caused the experts of the Spirit Luxuriant World to tense up once again.

Zhang Xuansheng and Yang Taihe, who were cultivating with the blessing of the World’s Will, rushed to the heavenly screen after receiving the news.

Soon after, Kou Chongxue, Li Jidao, and Liu Jingsheng who had reached the second tier of the Martial Void Realm arrived at almost the same time.

The only people who didn’t show themselves were the heavily injured Lu Wuzi, Zhang Jianzi, and Huang Jinghan who hadn’t entered the Martial Void Realm for long, and Shang Xia who everyone had no idea why he was missing. All the first tier Martial Void Realm experts didn’t come for the meeting.

“Fellow True Immortal Zhang and fellow True Immortal Yang, I believe it won’t be long before you break through the bottleneck and enter the third tier, right?” The person who arrived stared at the 5 second tier True Immortals of the Spirit Luxuriant World and sighed. “I’ve been alive somewhere between 200 and 300 years, and my experience can’t be considered shallow at all. I’ve seen the rise of many worlds in the vast sea of stars, but it’s the first time I’ve seen anyone improving so quickly. I cannot help but admire all of you...” f𝗿𝐞ewebno𝚟𝚎𝗹.𝗰𝐨m

The True Immortals of the Spirit Luxuriant World exchanged a glance and eventually, Yang Taihe spoke in their stead. “Guards Commander Zhuge, I believe you didn’t come all the way over here to give us some praise...”

Zhuge Xiang didn’t seem to be in a rush at all as he smiled amicably, “Of course not. I came here because we made a rash decision back then and brought trouble to your world. We went back on our promise to remain neutral and I am here to apologize to fellow True Immortals of the Spirit Luxuriant World.”

After he spoke, the Star Origin Guards Commander who reached the fourth tier of the Martial Void Realm, gave them a deep bow.

All of them avoided it quickly as they didn’t dare to accept a bow from such a figure.

Zhuge Xiang didn’t mind it and he continued after straightening his back, “Actually, I’ve been waiting to come over since half a year ago. However, all of you had just been through a tough battle and I didn’t wish to cause a misunderstanding by rushing over. That is why I intentionally delayed it by half a year and waited for you to reopen the spatial tunnel before coming over alone.”

Yang Taihe looked at the others around him and laughed, “Commander Zhuge, you’re too considerate! Since it’s just a misunderstanding, and neither of us were hurt by each other, let’s take it as if this never happened.”

Surprisingly, Zhuge Xiang shook his head in response. “No. The Star Origin Guards failed to follow the laws of Star Origin City. I made the decision and if this can be glossed over with a simple apology, wouldn’t we be unable to show our sincerity?”

After he spoke, he took out a small crystal ball that was the size of a fist. It was extremely clear, but every single True Immortal felt drawn to it.

Could it be... Could the crystal ball be sealing a part of a World Origin Sea?!

When thoughts were spinning in their minds, all of them heard Zhuge Xiang’s explanation, “This ball contains the essence of the world in the continent you guys left behind. After the others split up the continent, I obtained a third of the World Origin Source it contains and it’s sealed in here!”

Lightly tapping the crystal ball, it flew towards the True Immortals of the Spirit Luxuriant World.

The smile on Zhuge Xiang’s face made it hard to see through his thoughts, but he continued once more, “Even though it’s an Azure World, a third of the World Origin Source a continent contains should allow all of you here to take a step forward in your cultivation.”

No one among the Spirit Luxuriant World dared to reach for it at the moment. Instead, they ignored the crystal ball that was tempting them before Yang Taihe spoke again, “Commander Zhuge’s gift is too precious. We believe you have something to ask of us since you’re here, please go ahead.”

Looking at the crystal ball that was ignored, he glanced at the second tier True Immortals facing him. Nodding slightly, the smile on his face faded and he became serious. “Alright. I wish to enter the Elysium that once existed on the Azure Flame World to take a look. I hope you will agree to my request.”

Their expressions changed slightly, but no one spoke for some time.

Eventually, Kou Chongxue was the one to break the silence. “Commander Zhuge, is this because of the Heaven Observation Elysium?”

Zhuge Xiang’s expression didn’t change, but a ray of light flashed deep in his eyes. He muttered in a low voice, “Patriarch Kou, you actually heard of them?”
