Splitting the Heavens

Chapter 1294: Exposed Pt.2

The Essence Xing World couldn’t support the birth of a fourth Martial Emptiness Realm expert.

However, when the emperor of the Dachen Dynasty wanted to take the last step to break through, he made a bold decision that shocked the world. He wanted to rid himself of the restrictions of the Essence Xing World and retrieve his soul from the World Origin Source!

The growth of an expert has always been supported by their world and that was where they received nourishment. No matter how high one’s cultivation got, they would have relied on their world for its provision and blessing.

For an expert to completely free themself of the restrictions of their world and obtain complete freedom, the main thing they needed to do was to sever their karmic ties with their world.

In other words, he needed to repay the favor he had obtained from the world. At the very least, they had to ensure that the world acknowledged that the cultivator had paid their dues and obtained enough interest before they would release the soul and allow the cultivator to go free.

As for why the Dachen Emperor would make such a decision... Even True Immortal Kang and True Immortal Yu didn’t know.

With their cultivation merely in the second tier of the Martial Void Realm, they didn’t have the qualifications to learn about high-level secrets like that.

As for what would happen after one freed themselves from the world... They wouldn’t understand what that entailed when the expert broke through to the Martial Emptiness Realm either.

Shang Xia might be disappointed by the concussion, but when he heard the true goal of the experts of the Essence Xing World from the Piercing Cloud Bandit, he felt a little excited.

The Dachen Dynasty had actually made a deal with the Piercing Cloud Bandits to obtain the fragments of a Spirit World. The true goal of True Immortal Kang and True Immortal Yu was to spoil the deal. They couldn’t allow the fragment of the Spirit World to land in the hands of the Dachen Dynasty, and it would be best if they could retrieve the fragment.

Because the Dachen Dynasty was dealing with the Piercing Cloud Bandits in secret, that was why the Piercing Cloud Bandits disguised themselves as a group of merchants and sent a second tier Martial Void Realm chief to be in charge of the operation so as not to arouse suspicion.

They didn’t think that others would learn of the deal, which led to the Yu Sect behind True Immortal Kang and True Immortal Yu sniffing out their plan, and intercepting the fleet on their way.

Knowing they would be taken as the scapegoat after the operation ends, True Immortal Kang and True Immortal Yu planned to kill everyone on the other side so as not to leave behind any evidence.

The second tier True Immortal of the Piercing Cloud Bandit knew that he wasn’t the opponent of the experts of great powers of the Essence Xing World, so he decided to run. He might not be as strong as them, but as a seasoned Star Pirate, he wasn’t lacking in methods to save himself.

Not only did he manage to flee from their sneak attack, but he managed to run all the way over to the ruins of the Azure Parasol World. If not for the fact that he was a little unlucky at the very last moment to run into Shang Xia, he might just have escaped.

“It’s just the fragment of a Spirit World... Even though it’s rare, what can it do to a world like the Essence Xing World? It was even enough to make them risk their second tier True Immortals to face the wrath of the Dachen Dynasty if found out. Was an Essence World so powerful to the point where they didn’t have to care about the lives of True Immortals?”

Even though the mysterious expert in their eyes sounded confused when he spoke that way, there was a hidden rage hidden in his voice.

What he didn’t know was that the moment he spoke, True Immortal Kang and True Immortal Yu were certain he didn’t come from the Essence Xing World.

True Immortal Kang forced a smile and explained, “Senior, you might not know, but even though our Essence Xing World has been trying to expand for the past hundreds of years, our luck hasn’t been too good. We managed to establish several spatial tunnels out of the chaotic space of our world, but we ran into another Essence World and 2 Spirit Worlds. Those Spirit Worlds were on the verge of reaching a peak state. To launch an all-out expedition against them wouldn’t be easy, and we would have to risk a lot in order to take them down. In the most recent 200 years or so, our growth has stagnated and to be able to obtain a fragment of a Spirit World is an extremely difficult task the Dachen Emperor has achieved.”

True Immortal Yu quickly agreed, “Exactly! Even though the Wanyun Association and the Qingling Palace located the stronghold of another world in the chaotic space, it’s actually another Essence World called the Essence Ping World! They occupied a Star Beast Nest there and stationed a high-level True Immortal to watch over it.”

True Immortal Yu couldn’t help but shake his head, sighing at the unlucky Essence Xing World.

True Immortal Kang raised his head suddenly and looked at the mysterious figure with a light shining through his eyes.

Unfortunately, the mysterious figure didn’t react in the slightest. He simply said, “Since your Essence Xing World is finding it difficult to attack another world, you can only choose to work with Star Pirates. Why would your Dachen Emperor try to break through now while even planning to sever his karmic ties with the Essence Xing World?”

True Immortal Kang and True Immortal Yu fell silent, but this time, it didn’t seem as though they were completely clueless about the situation. Rather, they were unwilling to speak further.

The mysterious expert with his back against them mumbled, “What’s the matter? You were trying to probe me earlier but now that I’m doing the same, you don’t dare to speak further? Or do you think that the Dachen Dynasty won’t know that you’re behind this if I let you go now?”

True Immortal Yu gritted his teeth and explained, “The reason the Dachen Emperor wishes to free himself from the restraints of our world is because he wishes to accelerate the growth of our world... In order to make a world grow faster, there are other methods than absorbing foreign worlds. The other way is to shatter Elysiums, Holy Lands, and other strongholds before returning their world origin to the World Origin Source.”

True Immortal Kang wanted to stop True Immortal Yu from speaking, but every time he tried, a strange restriction would stop him from opening his mouth.

The mysterious expert whose back was facing them seemed to have reached a realization and he gasped, “So... This is the real reason the Dachen Dynasty is waging war on other Elysiums!”

True Immortal Kang eventually sighed and took a step forward to speak. Surprisingly, the restrictions around him disappeared. “We had no other choice as the Dayu and Daqi Dynasties reached an agreement with our sect to protect us when the Dachen Dynasty wages their war against the other powers. Only the 2 dynasties would possess enough strength to resist the Dachen Dynasty who is about to possess 2 Martial Emptiness Realm experts...”
