Splitting the Heavens

Chapter 884: Returning For Real

Chapter 884: Returning For Real

More than 85 percent of the Stellar Cauldron had been filled with world origin, but the moment Kou Chongxue started the Spatial Transfer and opened the spatial tunnel, world origin started to decrease at a speed visible to the naked eye.

The second the Spatial Transfer started and they started on their way back to the Azure Ascension World, Shang Xia had been paying attention to how much world origin was being used.

From what he was seeing, he estimated that close to 7 percent of world origin would be used up. That would mean that the Stellar Cauldron could remain nearly 80 percent full when they returned.

It was much better than he expected!

Originally, Shang Xia thought that traveling between the worlds would require close to 10 percent of world origin in the case where the cauldron was full. However, with everyone staying obediently in the cauldron, they managed to reduce their usage of world origin by such a large amount!

What Shang Xia didnt know was that the Spatial Transfer from the Azure Ascension World to the Azure Flame World used a lot more world origin than he originally thought. That was because they werent just transferring people over back then. Kou Chongxue dumped the entire Celestial Remains into the spatial tunnel!

Moreover, Kou Chongxue didnt just use world origin from the Azure Ascension World when he started the transfer back then. He even used all the energy contained in the Celestial Remains before ensuring that the transfer would be successful!

Now that they were going back, their expenditure of world origin was greatly reduced as they didnt have to move the Celestial Remains. Also, there was the matter of them missing a good half of the experts they came with

Well, Shang Xias thoughts didnt remain on the usage of world origin for long. That was because the Spatial Transfer wasnt instantaneous. It was going to be a long journey.

Because everyone had the experience of traveling to the Azure Flame World, not a trace of panic could be felt. Back then, many experts were in a state of utter shock when they were transferred over by Kou Chongxue and they couldnt enjoy the experience.

Now that they were going back, coupled with the fact that many of them had exhausted their inner qi, they knew that they had to take the chance to recover as much as possible. There was also a very real possibility of getting thrown into battle the moment they returned. As such, none of them were in the mood to care about the transfer process.

Unlike the others, Shang Xia wasnt injured during the battle in the Azure Flame World. Only his inner qi was depleted when his clones took action. The only time he personally took action near the end of the battle was when he suppressed the earth vein beneath the city. He might have used a lot of Five Element Dipper Qi during the process, but he didnt harm his foundations. He was one of the first few people to restore themselves to their peak condition in the Stellar Cauldron.

It didnt take long for him to notice another interesting sight. Those who managed to restore themselves as quickly as he did seemed extremely bored after they were done. They didnt use the world origin contained in the cauldron to cultivate or to comprehend the next phase of their cultivation.

One had to know that those who were injured back then were those who lost Fate Dipper Clones in the battle. They managed to gain a lot after all the enemies who were killed. They managed to restore themselves to their peak state of their regressed cultivation level, but they didnt seem to be in a rush to restore their original cultivation!

One had to know that there was most likely another tough battle waiting for them when they returned. Logically, they should be making full use of the opportunity to strengthen themselves the best they can!

Shang Xia seemed to have thought of something as he tried to leave the cauldron to experience the Spatial Transfer. But he was stopped by Kou Chongxue the moment he moved his body.

Stop messing around. I sealed off the cauldron for the time being. If you try to leave now, world origin will leak out and will increase the burden of the Spatial Transfer. Kou Chongxue transformed into a super miser now that they were returning and he wasnt willing to waste a single strand of world origin.

Why dont those people take the chance to restore their original cultivation? Shang Xia quickly asked.

Kou Chongxue didnt seem too interested and he replied casually, They are waiting for us to return to the Azure Ascension World to make use of the opportunity to restore their cultivation when our world ascends.

Why Shang Xia wanted to ask, but he thought of something else. Oh. Theyre planning to use the reward from the Worlds Will to grow stronger/

A soft chuckle escaped Kou Chongxues lips. Not everyones progress in the Martial Dipper Realm is smooth. Even more so, not everyone is like you. Theyre not perfectly compatible with every single Fate Dipper they refine, and thats the reason why theyre not in a rush to restore their cultivation. They wish to use the reward from the Worlds Will during its ascension to get rid of the hidden dangers of their improvement. Moreover, that might give them even more room for improvement in the future!

With that, their conversation was concluded. Kou Chongxue didnt interact too much with Shang Xia. After all, he needed to focus on controlling the Stellar Cauldron.

Eventually, Shang Xia managed to calm his mind. The next second, he recalled that he hadnt sorted out his gains from the core region of the Yanlin City.

With his current insight, there werent many treasures that could catch his eye. For him to look around the region to grab all the treasures he did, they were definitely top-tier treasures in the eyes of low-level cultivators.

Even if the treasures hidden in the core region of the Yanlin City couldnt be compared to the number kept in the treasury, their quality wouldnt be too far off.

Among the batch of rank four and five spiritual treasures, extermination origins, advancement medicines, healing medicines, advancement formulas, martial arts inheritances, secret arts, mid to high-grade weapons, and other treasures he couldnt make sense of at the moment, Shang Xia actually managed to find a complete Origin Dipper. Also, during the death of a Fate Dipper Clone, they would leave behind 5 to 6 strands of pure fate dipper essences. There was a whole bunch of random fate dipper essences among Shang Xias loot.

After separating them carefully, Shang Xia discovered that he almost completed his eighth set of fate dipper essences!

Back when he was absorbing world origin from the Azure Flame World, Shang Xias Five Element Arts experienced great improvements and he was a step away from truly entering the grand completion stage. In the most ideal situation, he would most likely attempt to break through when he refined enough sets of fate dipper essences

Looking around, the opportunity seemed to be right in front of him.

Shang Xia glanced at the many Martial Dipper Realm experts who had completed their recovery. It would most likely be impossible to gather so many Martial Dipper Realm experts in the same place again, especially without them fighting each other.

Since that was the case, Shang Xia could just give them something to do! After all, all of them could benefit from each others assistance

Senior Zhong, do you have extra fate dipper essence? Maybe ones that you cant use? I am willing to trade them with you for things of equivalent value

On their way back, a trade fair on a scale that had never been seen before, and most likely never will be seen again, happened inside the Stellar Cauldron.

Even though almost half their forces were lost in the Azure Flame World, the amount of treasures everyone gathered reached a staggering amount. People might die, but their treasures would be retrieved by their fellow cultivators! Since the time they stepped foot into the Celestial Remains, the looting had already begun! None of them remained idle either during the invasion of the Azure Flame World. The hundreds of years of foundations of the Yanlin Clan had been plundered by the experts of the Azure Ascension World, and the spoils of war after they killed their opponents couldnt be overlooked. After collecting the belongings of their fellow cultivators who fell in battle, one could say that even the Martial Extermination Realm experts of the Azure Ascension World were loaded!

Of course, those who died in battle wouldnt be completely forsaken. Regardless if they were in the Martial Extermination Realm or the Martial Dipper Realm, the powers behind them or their family would be given some form of compensation. Kou Chongxue and the Tongyou Institution would most likely be the ones giving a larger part of the compensation as he was the one who cooked the whole plan up in the first place.

Regardless of their compensation, it couldnt be denied that those who were still alive had earned a lot.

Moreover, what they were doing was equal exchanges. There was no need to care about the distribution of loot at that point.

Because of the sheer number of fate dipper essences, it didnt take long for Shang Xia to gather his eighth set of fate dipper essences. In fact, he managed to gather a good number of fate dipper essences to make up his ninth set.

That wasnt all. He managed to trade some of the assorted fate dipper essences he had no use for many high-level spiritual treasures. There were also mid-grade essence crystals. That wasnt all. He had so many fate dipper essences left that he managed to gather 2 complete Origin Dippers through his trades.

Even though he couldnt use them, it wouldnt stop him from giving them to those from his clan or the institution who required them.

The Origin Dippers and treasures he obtained belonged solely to himself! He could do whatever he wanted with it!

That wasnt all. He also learned that Kou Chongxue obtained a huge batch of resources. However, those would belong to the Tongyou Institution. As the patriarch, only Kou Chongxue would have the authority to give them out.

Throughout the entire transfer process, Kou Chongxue didnt show his face once to trade with the others. After all, he didnt have the time or energy to care about the sudden trade fair that was taking place.

Just as Shang Xia was preparing to go all out to obtain the rest of the fate dipper essences required, the Stellar Cauldron dropped suddenly as though it separated from whichever region of space it was traveling through.

The Martial Extermination Realm cultivators had no idea what was going on, but the Martial Dipper Realm experts knew exactly what happened. They completed the Spatial Transfer and returned to the Azure Ascension World.

The entrance of the cauldron was surprisingly gone, and Kou Chongxues voice rang in their minds the next moment. Everyone, we have returned Oh no! Be care

Rumble

The Stellar Cauldron trembled even more violently than when the Spatial Transfer started, and everyone inside fell to the ground.

The next second, countless hands seemed to be slapping on the surface of the cauldron, but every slap contained extreme power. Spatial fluctuations seemed to pass through the cauldron as it spread into the Origin Holy Artifact, and no one knew if they were trying to destroy it or to kill the cultivators within. Perhaps, it was both

Who could have thought that the violent slaps were unable to break open the cauldron in the slightest? However, the effects were severe. The sound waves caused even Martial Dipper Realm experts to feel disorientated. Naturally, their lives were not at risk.

No one knew what happened, but the cultivators in the cauldron felt themselves falling once again, but this time, they were falling much faster than before. The cauldron seemed to be rolling about as though Kou Chongxue had already lost control of it.

Some of those inside wanted to rush out, but they were quickly held back by those around them.

The next second, another voice that caused endless despair to spout in their minds arrived. Huh? Its actually a Holy Artifact!
