Splitting the Heavens

Chapter 1532: Returning to the Spirit Luxuriant World Pt.2

When Shang Xia previously left the Spirit Luxuriant World and the Heaven Observation Field, there were already 16 True Immortals.

After returning 2 years later, there was finally a new True Immortal, Lu Xueji.

Along with the rise of this female True Immortal, the Sha Continent also reached a state of perfection!

With that, of the 24 continents in the Spirit Luxuriant World, 22 reached the state of perfection, bringing them a step closer to the limit of a Spirit World.

When Shang Xia was still tens of thousands of miles away from the Spirit Luxuriant World, he could already sense its growth.

That finally brought him some comfort.

At least it proved that even without Shang Xia and Kou Chongxue actively supporting the world, the various forces of the Spirit Luxuriant World were still actively promoting the growth of the world.

"The Sha Continent should have been the most barren and backward continent in our world. I didn’t expect True Immortal Lu to be so capable, to have brought it to a state of perfection.” Shang Xia smiled.

In Shang Xia's memory, although the Sha Continent had also expanded during the splitting of the world fragment, its foundation was far too weak compared to the other continents. Even with the expansion, its status as the most barren and backward continent in the Spirit Luxuriant World was hard to change.

Hearing Shang Xia’s praise, the forced laughter from True Immortals Yifan, Fei Xuzi, and Lu Bailu seemed a bit strained.

Shang Xia could tell there must be more to it, but as long as it helped the overall growth of the Spirit Luxuriant World, he did not mind how the goal was achieved.

"With this, the only continents that hadn’t reached a state of perfection are the Xu Continent and Xing Continent.” Shang Xia mentioned casually.

In fact, the Spirit Luxuriant World could always adjust internally to bring the area of the Xu Continent and Xing Continent to over 10,000 miles.

However, ascending to an Essence World was clearly not just about having all 24 continents at a state of perfection.

At the very least, they hadn’t even reached the 9 Elysiums which was the limit of a Spirit World.

Unless necessary, other continents had no obligation to help the Xu Continent and Xing Continents.

"What’s the situation in other worlds?" Shang Xia asked casually.

Actually, if he wanted to understand the situation of the various worlds within the Heaven Observation Field, the Tongyou Institution already had its own channels of information. However, it would be very useful for him to hear it from others.

"We are improving, and so are the other Spirit Worlds in the Heaven Observation Field. They have been giving it everything they had. To grow stronger!” Yifan sighed.

Fei Xuzi continued, "The major Spirit Worlds, including other Azure Worlds, managed to nurture new True Immortals in recent years. Reliable information suggests that the Spirit Mammoth World, Spirit Abundance World, and even the Star Origin Dao Field managed to produce high-level True Immortals. Instead, our alliance with the Spirit Thistle World and Spirit Tinkle World failed to produce any new high-level True Immortals in the past 2 years.”

While Yifan and Fei Xuzi were talking freely, Lu Bailu said little.

Shang Xia could understand that compared to the Eternal Palace and Divine Capital Sect that existed for a long time, the foundation of Lu Bailu’s Jianmen Institution was too shallow. His understanding of the other worlds was far less profound than the others.

However, Shang Xia mused, "I heard news when I was roaming the sea of stars that Zhuo Gudao is trying to break through to the Martial Emptiness Realm. Have you not heard anything about it?”

Everyone stared at him in shock at the revelation.

Yifan, the most experienced among them, asked, "True Immortal Shang, where did you hear this?"

Surprisingly, Shang Xia appeared even more astonished than the three of them. "You haven’t received any news? If Zuo Gudao advances to the Martial Emptiness Realm, he needs to make a lot of preparations. How can the Star Origin Dao Field keep it so hidden?”

Those present stared at each other and Fei Xuzi thought for a moment before he said, "How did we not know about this? True Immortal Shang, have you discussed this with Patriarch Kou or my ancestor? Could True Immortal Yang, True Immortal Li, and True Immortal Liu be aware of it?”

As it turned out, they really didn’t know.

That would mean that the Tongyou Institution's intelligence channel was pretty unique.

Regarding what Fei Xuzi suggested about Kou Chongxue, Zhang Xuansheng, Yang Taihe, Li Jidao, and Liu Jingsheng forming a high-level inner circle to block off the news, Shang Xia did not quite believe it.

"I see... Seems I was too sensitive." Shang Xia briefly commented and then turned his gaze, noticing that they were approaching the heavenly screen of the Spirit Luxuriant World.

The next moment, Shang Xia exclaimed, "I was wondering why there was no other news even though the Divine Capital Sect and Eternal Palace separated from their continent. True Immortal Li has already reached the third tier, but you guys didn’t notice anything about True Immortal Yang, who controls the Yong Continent alone. He hasn’t done anything in recent years either... As it turns out, True Immortal Yang has already broken through. Our world has another high-level True Immortal!”

Shang Xia's voice was not loud but it spread through the Spirit Luxuriant World, ringing clearly in the minds of every True Immortal.

The moment he spoke, the world seemed to awaken. @@novelbin@@

It wasn’t anything bad, but rather, the True Immortals of the world quickly gathered. With their appearance, it became another major event that was noticed by the experts of the Spirit Luxuriant World.

The Spirit Luxuriant World had quietly gained another high-level True Immortal, and there had been no signs beforehand. It was both surprising and suspicious.

A voice that only True Immortals could hear came from below the heavenly screen next. "I did not want to disturb everyone. I thought of giving you all a surprise after stabilizing my foundations, but I didn’t expect True Immortal Shang to reveal my achievements the moment you returned. Looks like all my preparations were useless.”

The voice belonged to Yang Taihe, and he basically confirmed what Shang Xia said.

Fei Xuzi and Lu Bailu turned to look at Yifan who was traveling with them, only to find that the second tier True Immortal from the Eternal Palace looked even more surprised than they did.

Yang Taihe's quiet advancement to the level of Dao Harmony not only eluded the True Immortals of the Spirit Luxuriant World. He didn’t even tell his disciples.

Of course, there was no way he could hide it from Shang Xia.

By then, the True Immortals of the Spirit Luxuriant World had gathered in the Spirit Luxuriant Hall.

Shang Xia turned back and smiled at Yifan, Fei Xuzi, and Lu Bailu, then left the ship with Song Zhen. They also went to the Spirit Luxuriant Hall.

The moment Shang Xia stepped into the inner hall, all eyes fell on him. However, they looked at him with uncertainty.

"He... What level of cultivation has he reached?!"
