Chapter 1590: Gathering at the Spirit Observation World Pt.4
"Integrating the World’s Will into our own so we become more compatible with the Essence Ping World origin? Ascending to an Essence World because of it?” Xiong Xin gave a wry smile and shook his head. "It’s an impressive plan! Honestly, I am truly compelled to act on it. Unfortunately, any plan requires capable executors. If I were fortunate enough to stand shoulder to shoulder with Sage Zhuo, perhaps I would indeed take a bold gamble. Unfortunately, I can only burden my world with my limited strength.”
While speaking, Xiong Xin looked at the True Immortals of his world and chuckled with self-depreciation.
Despite Xiong Xin's strong denials, Zhuo Gudao seemed unwilling to let him or the Spirit Abundance World off easily. His voice continued to boom through the hall, "If relying solely on the power of the Spirit Abundance World, you won’t be able to do it. But if you could leverage the power of that outsider who once broke through your heavenly screen and caused the Frost Tide in the first place, what’s stopping you?”
At this point, the entire hall had fallen silent. Every single True Immortal had their gazes locked on those from the Spirit Abundance World.
But in reality, including the True Immortals of the 3 World Alliance, many had already begun to believe in the possibility Zhuo Gudao spoke of.
At this time, Xiong Xin’s face no longer bore the previous easy smile. He turned solemn as he slowly said, "Sage Zhuo, you said it. That mysterious outsider destroyed a portion of my world’s heavenly screen, stalling the advancement of our world for hundreds of years. How can we choose to easily cooperate with someone we hold such a huge grudge with? How can they be willing to help us ascend? Are they really not afraid that we’ll retaliate after we grow stronger?”
Zhuo Gudao chuckled in response, "What does the birth of a Sage and the development of an Essence World mean to an expert of that level? In the face of absolute interests, grudges mean nothing.”
Xiong Xin continued in a grave tone, "Sage Zhuo thinks too highly of me..."
Unexpectedly, Zhuo Gudao interrupted him bluntly, "I have never thought highly of you, nor are you worth my regard. After all, you don’t know anything about this!”
With his eyes widening in surprise, Xiong Xin seemed to understand something. He turned to look at Cang Xuangao beside him.
Before he could turn back, Cang Xuangao chuckled softly, "Sage Zhuo has a keen eye, to think that our carefully prepared plan was seen through so easily."
Xiong Xin's neck seemed to stiffen suddenly, and Shang Xia could even clearly see Xiong Xin's eyelids twitching in anger.
Shang Xia’s attention wasn’t placed on him for long. He looked at the group of True Immortals of the Spirit Abundance World where other another high-level True Immortal sat. It was where Xiong Chunjun, a high-level True Immortal of the Dajun Dynasty was. He was known as Emperor Chunjun among the experts of the various worlds.
The gazes of many True Immortals in the hall flickered between Xiong Chunjun and Xiong Xin.
However, like Shang Xia, they saw Xiong Chunjun seated at the far end among the True Immortals of the Spirit Abundance World, completely unconcerned with the ongoing events. He looked to be more focused on drinking.
Everyone immediately understood that the Dajun Dynasty seemed to have already reached a decision. Xiong Xin, the strongest expert of the Spirit Abundance World, and the backbone of the Dajun Dynasty, seemed to be kept in the dark.
As the strongest faction in the Spirit Abundance World, the Dajun Dynasty possessed many supreme experts. There was Xiong Xin, who was at the grand completion stage of the Martial Void Realm, Xiong Hu, a fifth tier Elysium True Immortal, and Xiong Chunjun, a fourth tier True Immortal.
With such changes occurring, it seems the internal dynamics of the Spirit Abundance World might undergo significant changes.
Though it was unclear what exactly had transpired within the Spirit Abundance World to exclude Xiong Xin, the existence closest to reach the Martial Emptiness Realm, from the decision-making circle, which caused such a massive spectacle in the hall... Everyone seemed to anticipate what would happen in the Spirit Abundance World next.
However, Xiong Xin seemed to quickly regain his composure from being abandoned by his world. He ceased speaking or making any movements, merely sitting there stoically with his eyes closed.
At this time, Cang Xuangao, who had spoken over Xiong Xin to interact with Zhuo Gudao, paused briefly before bowing respectfully to Xiong Xin. He turned back to Zhuo Gudao with a smile, "Since our actions have been seen through by Sage Zhuo, may I ask what advice you have for us?"
Shang Xia heard Zuo Li whispering to Kou Chongxue, "Even under such circumstances, Xiong Xin is still able to maintain the dignity of the Spirit Abundance World...”
Kou Chongxue's expression remained indifferent as he nodded slowly.
Meanwhile, Shang Xia suddenly felt a gaze on him. Looking up, he saw Yuan Chan from the Spirit Mammoth World raising a cup towards him and then drinking it all at once.
"What does this mean... Is Yuan Chan empathizing with him? Or is it a case of him feeling sorrow for another's misfortune?" Shang Xia was somewhat puzzled but still raised his cup in response.
As Shang Xia raised his cup to his lips, Zhuo Gudao's voice came from the head of the hall, "With such a comprehensive plan from your Spirit Abundance World, even I am amazed. What advice could I possibly give? Cang Xuangao, you are too modest."
Cang Xuangao continued, "Since that's the case, I actually have a small request that I hope the esteemed True Immortals in this hall can grant."
Zhuo Gudao was slightly taken aback by the sudden request. He eventually looked around before mumbling, "Today, True Immortals from various worlds gather here to speak freely, Cang Xuangao, please!"
Cang Xuangao’s gaze swept over the True Immortals in the hall and said gravely, "Since Sage Zhuo has laid bare our plan, I will no longer hide it. We indeed plan to integrate the World’s Will with our own. We don’t plan to take over it completely. Instead, we wish to fuse it with our own in order to grow stronger.”
This statement might sound obscure to others, but the True Immortals of the 3 World Alliance, Lingjun Realm, and the Star Origin Dao Field immediately understood the Spirit Abundance World’s intentions.
Even though the Essence Ping World’s Will was suppressed and weakened by the Star Origin Lord, it was still the World’s Will of an Essence World. Its inherently superior level ensured it held an absolute advantage over the Spirit Abundance World’s Will.
If the World’s Will they absorbed was too powerful, it might immediately overwhelm their native World’s Will. With that, the world would transform immediately. That would mean cultivators of their world would be rejected by the World’s Will and high-level experts would feel the impact instantly. Even though the impact might only last for a hundred or so years, it was something the upper echelons of the world would never accept.
Therefore, to successfully integrate the Essence Ping World’s Will, it had to be weakened to the extreme, ensuring that upon its arrival in the Spirit Abundance World, it would not overwhelm the World’s Will but still remain powerful enough to achieve a complete fusion.
It was similar to what happened with the Azure Origin World and Azure Spiritual World of the past. The Spirit Luxuriant World was the end product of the fusion, and the more recent merger of the Azure Sea World and Azure Star World was also the same.
Yuan Chan from the Spirit Mammoth World spoke suddenly, "Then how should we weaken the Essence Ping World’s Will?”
Cang Xuangao replied with a smile, "Our world has always been attempting to weaken it. An example would be triggering the Frost Wave. However, a more direct method would be to reduce the continents the World’s Will controls.”
Yuan Chan sneered immediately, "Are you suggesting that the Star Origin Lord’s control over the Essence Ping World isn’t fast enough? Do you think it would be better for him to control even more continents?”
Yuan Yan, a fifth tier True Immortal of the Star Origin Dao Field, who had been silent the entire time, couldn’t hold back any longer. “Nonsense! We’re playing with fire!”
Sitting beside him, Pei Lu also chimed in, "With the Star Origin Lord holding an absolute advantage, he might devour the World’s Will at any moment. How are we supposed to weaken the World’s Will without knowing how powerful he is?”
With both fifth tier True Immortals of the Star Origin Dao Field speaking up one after another, the others in the hall also started to nod in agreement.
What do you think?
