Splitting the Heavens

Chapter 1102: Surrounding Lan Zhengfeng

“True Immortal Lan, hurry, save me!”

True Immortal Zhu, whose aura was chaotic and seemed to be completely exhausted, yelled in excitement when he saw Lan Zhengfeng in the distance. He couldn’t help but start screaming when he was thousands of miles away.

No response came from the meteor that was shooting at them, but Lan Zhengfeng seemed to accelerate a little. Finally realizing that True Immortal Zhu could be in a bad spot, he hastily rushed over.

Both sides were flying to each other and the distance of thousands of miles was nothing in the eyes of True Immortals.

The powerful glow surrounding Lan Zhengfeng expanded greatly, and it gradually managed to rival the intensity of the sun. In the depths of space, the powerful flow of heat that was generated created a massive storm...

True Immortal Zhu cheered wildly when he saw that he was going to be rescued. He didn’t forget to continue shouting, “True Immortal Lan, save me! The cultivator who broke out of our encirclement and infiltrated our Spirit Faith World is right behind me and he ambushed True Immortal Yan earlier when we weren’t paying attention.”

However... Acting in front of a third tier True Immortal tool real courage. Even though True Immortal Zhu seemed to be panicking, he still prepared to fight in case anything happened.

The next moment, he felt fortunate he had been ready for battle.

Lan Zhengfeng, who had been storing energy while rushing over, didn’t seem to be targeting Shang Xia who was flying behind. Instead, he charged straight at True Immortal Zhu.

Shit! We’re exposed!

True Immortal Zhu was in a flustered state, and as he watched the meteor getting larger and larger, he suddenly started to retreat to regroup with Shang Xia.

He didn’t forget to yell while moving backward, “True Immortal Lan, what’s the meaning of this?”

Lan Zhengfeng didn’t respond. Instead, the flames around him burned with greater intensity.

With the threat so close, how could True Immortal Zhu realize that the other side probably already knew that he joined hands with Shang Xia to kill Yan Wujiu? The flames that escaped earlier probably managed to send out some message and if True Immortal Zhu weren’t mistaken, Yan Wujiu should have hidden traces of the truth behind his death in every one of them.

Realizing that he could no longer hide what happened, True Immortal Zhu flew in the other direction and yelled, “True Immortal Shang, hurry, assist me!”

As soon as he spoke, the meteor arrived and crashed into his domain.

True Immortal Zhu couldn’t care less at that point and he tossed the Lightning Bell in his hand at Lan Zhengfeng.

A loud scrape tore through space and the Lightning Bell was sent flying in an instant. The meteor it slammed into emitted a burst of flames. Even though it dimmed a little, it continued to fly at True Immortal Zhu.

With True Immortal Zhu already gathering his inner qi to defend himself against the next strike, he prepared to take on the hit with his bare hands.

However, Shang Xia who had been trailing behind him finally made his move.

Shang Xia intended to push for the Ascendant Faction to break off from the Native Faction, but that didn’t mean that he had to continuously weaken both sides.

Pushing for the crack in the relationship was just so that the Ascendant Faction would have no choice but to take action immediately.

Also... He wasn’t helping True Immortal Zhu for any other reason. It was simply because he felt that the Ascendant Faction needed all the help they could get.

Shang Xia had a deep understanding of how difficult it would be to attack a world when they were forced into a desperate situation.

The Spirit Luxuriant World being invaded by the Spirit Abundance World gave him a good understanding of what would happen when they were pushed into a corner, and so did the resistance of the Azure Origin World when they faced the invasion of multiple worlds.

The True Immortals of the Spirit Luxuriant World had long since understood a single point. Facing any world, unless the combat strength sent over was at least 3 times that of the defending world. Otherwise, they shouldn’t launch an invasion without proper consideration.

Naturally, the internal conflict among the Three Worlds was the best chance for the Spirit Luxuriant World to fish for benefits... Shang Xia didn’t wish to see the Ascendant Faction being suppressed so easily.

Flying behind True Immortal Zhu, Shang Xia swung his Stone Rod without hesitation.

Stabbing through the void, it passed True Immortal Zhu and slammed directly into the meteor.

In a split second, the already quiet space around them fell even more silent. A massive crack that was visible to the naked eye started to spread from the point of impact, causing the void around them to twist unnaturally. In an instant, the region of space in a thousand mile radius crumbled under the powerful fluctuations.

Despite the powerful ripples produced, the True immortals remained unaffected.

Shang Xia turned into a ray of light that rushed to stand between Lan Zhengfeng and True Immortal Zhu before releasing his domain. The space around him was forced to return to normal and he also took the initiative to fuse his domain together with True Immortal Zhu. They resisted Lan Zhengfeng’s domain together and they were even able to push back against him without being completely suppressed.

At the same time, the Stone Rod that ripped through space earlier was still pushing against the meteor. Quality wise, the Stone Rod that was a Holy Artifact was of higher quality than the meteor which was a mere divine artifact, but they needed to see who used either weapon! The meteor was driven by a third tier True Immortal while Shang Xia was only in the second tier. Neither managed to gain the upper hand.

While Shang Xia joined hands with True Immortal Zhu to fight Lan Zhengfeng, faint spatial fluctuations appeared in the direction of the Star Beast Nest.

The reinforcements of the Spirit Luxuriant World is here!

True Immortal Zhu revealed a face full of joy and yelled, “True Immortal Shang, please hold him down with me! When the experts of your world arrive, we can join hands and kill him, greatly weakening the Native Faction!”

How could an experienced invader like Shang Xia not understand the reasoning behind True Immortal Zhu’s plan? However, he sighed softly to himself.

The entry of the experts of the Spirit Luxuriant World would mean that their strength would be revealed to the Three Worlds! The members of the Ascendant Faction would probably be disappointed in the strength of their new alliance members!

As for Lan Zhengfeng... He didn’t hesitate to turn to flee the moment he felt the fluctuations.

With his intention to flee, and Shang Xia working with True Immortal Zhu, both of them managed to temporarily gain the upper hand in the exchange with Lan Zhengfeng!

Lan Zhengfeng knew that he had to escape no matter what. Even if he had to take a few blows from Shang Xia and True Immortal Zhu, he needed to get away! He didn’t doubt for a second that the moment the experts from the Spirit Luxuriant World arrived, he would be slain right there and then!

As the second strongest expert in the Native Faction, he couldn’t die there! He needed to return to the Spirit Faith World and spread the news of the Ascendant Faction’s betrayal!

... How could Shang Xia allow him to escape so easily?

Once Lan Zhengfeng returned to the Spirit Faith World, he would receive the blessing from the World’s Will and become a lot harder to kill!

Without True Immortal Zhu’s reminder, Shang Xia broke off the fusion of domains. He rushed forward alone and sent a reddish-gold streak of lightning tearing through space. He quickly raced past Lan Zhengfeng and tried to pincer him with True Immortal Zhu.

The very next moment, a second tier True Immortal of the Spirit Luxuriant World arrived in the Star Beast Nest. After taking a second to adjust his condition, he started to race towards the battlefield.

Without a doubt, the backup sent by the Spirit Luxuriant World also noticed the battle happening in the distance.

With Shang Xia and True Immortal Zhu joining hands, Lan Zhengfeng was slowly forced to a disadvantage. However, he was still more than capable of fighting back. However... If another second tier True Immortal joined the fray...

Lan Zhengfeng acted decisively. A blurry figure split off him and charged at Shang Xia.

He wanted to detonate the Void Origin Clone he created to buy him some time to escape!

Shang Xia didn’t hesitate. The moment the blurry figure appeared, he flung the last rank six True Space Restriction Palm Talisman.

Shang Xia might have evaluated the True Space Restriction Palm Talisman to be one of the lowest tiered talisman among rank six talismans, but with the assistance of his inner qi, it was more than enough to suppress a mere clone!

Of course, the talisman would be enough to suppress a clone, but the detonation of the void qi it contained wasn’t so easily dealt with. The True Space Restriction Palm Talisman managed to get rid of a good portion of the blast, and the remaining energy rushed at Shang Xia. Of course, the remnant energy was capable of killing several Martial Dipper Realm experts, but there was no way to harm him!

Shang Xia ignored the spatial fluctuations caused by the remaining energy and he charged directly into the heart of the explosion. The moment he arrived, he saw that Lan Zhengfeng had already forced True Immortal Zhu back and was planning to escape!

Due to the separation of detonation of the clone, Lan Zhengfeng was no longer as strong as before. Shang Xia wouldn’t miss the opportunity to kick an opponent when they were down and he charged at his enemy with renewed vigor.

After seeing how Shang Xia easily got rid of the clone’s detonation, Lan Zhengfeng felt a chill running through his heart. He also saw a rod swung his way and he could only summon his meteor again to stop it.

Boom...

A low rumble was heard as another region of space crumbled and turned into chaotic streams.

By the time Shang Xia and the badly beaten True Immortal Zhu managed to skirt past the region of chaos, Lan Zhengfeng was a mere spot in the distance. However, instead of emitting its usual glow, the light around Lan Zhengfeng was tinged with a bit of crimson this time...

“He’s injured!” True Immortal Zhu coughed lightly before revealing an ugly expression. “But he still escaped!”

Shang Xia ignored his bitter tone and asked, “True Immortal Zhu, how are your injuries?”

Feeling a chill suddenly, True Immortal Zhu quickly spoke with indifference, “I’m alright. My Void Origin suffered a little damage. Lan Zhengfeng couldn’t possibly injure me so heavily in a few blows.”

Shang Xia laughed, and he didn’t care if True Immortal Zhu was speaking the truth. He simply turned to look behind him.

True Immortal Zhu followed his gaze, but he sneakily moved away from Shang Xia.

A sword light tore through the void and descended not too far away from them. Kou Chongxue appeared before meeting Shang Xia’s gaze. He then turned to stare at True Immortal Zhu before sighing regretfully, “Looks like I came a little too late!”
