Splitting the Heavens

Chapter 1451: I’m Gonna Be a Sage, No, I’m Gonna be a Sage!

Strictly speaking, Qi Jing’s passing would greatly benefit the Essence Xing World.

Be it the increased density of the heaven and earth qi in the world or the sudden expansion of the World Origin Source, everything signified the best time for an attempt to breakthrough.

The death of a Sage was an event that affected the entire world, but there were also many who stood to benefit.

The intense fluctuation in the World Origin Source made it such that many experts didn’t dare to try to use it to break through immediately. They would rather wait for it to calm down slightly. However, that meant that more people took part in the battle of the Qi Dynasty Dao Field, making the battle more intense. There were even several factions who harbored questionable intentions joining the battle on both sides, causing the situation to become more complicated.

The increase in heaven and earth qi density was useful, but they mostly benefited those under the Martial Intent Realm.

Also, unless one had reached a sufficiently high level, they wouldn’t be able to make use of the World Origin Source directly for fear of being devoured by their world, cutting their life short.

Naturally, Shang Xia had exceeded that level and he didn’t sweat the small stuff.

As someone from a foreign world, Shang Xia was in a much more precarious situation than those from the Essence Xing World. However, he had the cheat code that was the Crimson Soul Tablet, allowing him to remain fearless in the face of chaos. Nôv(el)B\\jnn

Even though he could only summon a projection of the tablet at the moment, it was enough!

The second he stabbed the projection into the ground, he felt connected to the World Origin Source. At the same time, he could tell how violent the fluctuations were.

What he didn’t expect was to feel 3 separate seas instead of 1!

It didn’t take long for him to understand the reason behind what he was feeling. The Dynasties Edge was also where the World Origin Source of the 3 dynasties were connected!

That was probably the reason why the dynasties had never given up on trying to control their region.

The situation couldn’t be better for Shang Xia. With the projection of the Crimson Soul Tablet, he didn’t care about anything else and started absorbing it however he liked.

Pure world origin poured into the Crimson Soul Tablet through its projection. Shang Xia could feel the tablet swaying slightly, as though experiencing some subtle change. Eventually, a soft red glow was seen on its surface.

At the same time, the words on its surface started to dum and Shang Xia had a feeling the projection in his hand was also undergoing some sort of transformation.

That wasn’t all. With the Crimson Soul Tablet devouring world origin without end, it returned a bit of purified energy to Shang Xia.

Shang Xia started circulating his Six Harmony Flawless Rod Technique to the limit and he felt the pure energy rushing into his dantian as his cultivation started to rise.

With the absorption of world origin, the World Origin Source didn’t calm down in the slightest. Instead, the fluctuations became even stronger.

The World Origin Source was a single entity to begin with that spanned the land. As he absorbed world origin from a single point, more world origin rushed over to fill the empty space.

When he started absorbing world origin, Shang Xia was still a little careful. He didn’t dare to allow the Crimson Soul Tablet to operate to its limit as he extended his divine soul to its maximum range. He was prepared to activate a Myriad Tinted Cloud Talisman to protect himself while activating another Six Direction Teleportation Talisman to escape the moment he felt anything off.

However, everything happened too smoothly and the increasing chaos in the World Origin Source managed to cover his tracks.

Naturally, he didn’t dare to become careless. They weren’t in the Spirit Luxuriant World after all. He felt a little less worried, but he was still ready to run the moment he felt anything about to go wrong.

It wasn’t as though the sudden disturbance didn’t catch any attention. High-level cultivators were unable to use the world origin to cultivate at the moment, but that didn’t mean that they couldn’t tell it was fluctuating more violently. The only problem was that they didn’t know that Shang Xia was the source.

Anyone who noticed the chaos at the moment would overlook it, and at most, they would grumble about the terrifying effects caused by the death of a Sage.

Even some experts who looked a little deeper into it would only feel that there were some other factions stirring up the World Origin Source on purpose. With the War of the Qi Dynasty Dao Field becoming more intense, that was the main focus. No one would think that there would be anyone stealing world origin at the moment.

They would only think that anyone who tried to do it at that moment would simply explode from the massive influx of energy.

Shang Xia wasn’t afraid of that. Instead, he used the stream of energy produced by the Crimson Soul Tablet to strengthen his cultivation, as it continued to absorb world origin freely.

Even the Sages of the Essence Xing World couldn’t tell what was happening at the moment. Their focus was also stuck on the battle happening outside the Qi Dynasty.

High in the skies above the Qi Dynasty, the battle to become the third Sage of the Essence Xing World was about to reach its climax.

If the Chen Dynasty Emperor was able to shatter the defenses of the Qi Dynasty Dao Field, not only would he be able to tribute the Dao Field into the world, he would also be able to greatly increase his success rate of becoming a Martial Emptiness Realm Sage who wouldn’t be restricted to the world!

It was almost the same for the Qi Dynasty Emperor. If he was able to use the energy they contained from Qi Jing’s death to push himself to a higher level, he would be able to secure the foundations and inheritances of the Qi Dynasty!
