Chapter 1035: Turning the Situation Around

Even though the Western Wenchen Continent’s descent was slowed by the efforts of the Star Ships of the Spirit Luxuriant World possessed, it wasn’t by much. Zhang Jianzi was the one who arrived at the critical moment and took charge of controlling the continent to prevent mass destruction.

Even though Zhang Xuansheng relied on the Northern Sea Elysium to break through, Zhang Jianzi was also able to do the same. Everyone was shocked by the realization, but considering what circumstances they were in, it wasn’t time for them to ask too many questions.

With Zhang Jianzi’s entry into the battle, they managed to stabilize the situation despite him not having consolidated his foundations. He was barely as strong as Lu Wuzi, but with the support of his Elysium and the world, his aura was slightly stronger than Lu Wuzi.

That was the advantage True Immortals with the support of their Elysiums had.

One of them was a traitor of the Northern Sea Mystic Sect, and the other was the secret inheritor of the Northern Sea Mystic Sect. Their techniques came from the same source and when they joined hands, they worked with amazing coordination. Even their combat strength multiplied when they fought together! It might not be enough to suppress their enemies to gain victory, but they were able to stabilize the situation!

With his entry to the battle, the True Immortals of the other worlds were the ones who started to feel uncomfortable.

Even though they seemed to hold the initiative, the True Immortals of the other worlds knew that they failed in their mission!

What was more, the Spirit Luxuriant World would only continue to devour the Azure Flame World and the True Immortals of the Spirit Luxuriant World would only grow stronger as the battle drags on.

Liu Jingsheng had broken through to the second tier Martial Void Realm, and so did Kou Chongxue!

“Liu Tianyu, Xiao Chengyu, are you two fucking useless?” An impatient roar came from True Immortal Jiu the next moment.

Xiao Chengyu, who was suppressed in Shang Xia’s domain, seemed to transform into a massive ball of flame in order to force her way out.

Her actions greatly exhausted Shang Xia’s Void Origin, and nearly caused his domain to crumble.

The flames were directed at Shang Xia suddenly as Xiao Chengyu tried to severely injure his Void Origin.

Liu Tianyu seemed to grasp the opportunity and she decisively chose to give up her weapon. She left to assist Xiao Chengyu in an attempt to deal the killing blow to Shang Xia.

They seemed coordinated with each other as their intentions aligned. If they managed to heavily injure or kill Shang Xia, they would be able to turn the situation around.

As they set their sights on Shang Xia, they noticed his calm expression and suddenly felt a lot more unsure of what they were doing. Unfortunately, it was too late to turn back.

Orange flames roared and rushed at Shang Xia, but something moved even faster than it!

A giant three-legged cauldron rushed out from below the heavenly screen and stopped in front of Shang Xia as it forced the flames away.

Since there was no need for the Stellar Cauldron to suppress the world origin of the Western Wenchen Continent any longer, Shang Xia found no problems with summoning it back.

The Stellar Cauldron was refined by Kou Chongxue, but Shang Xia was able to use it however he wished. Of course, that was only if Kou Chongxue didn’t interfere with the process.

Even though the Stellar Cauldron wouldn’t be able to stop the flames forever, a short moment was all Shang Xia needed.

With Xiao Chengyu’s movements frozen for a moment, another treasure appeared in Shang Xia’s hand.

It was precisely the Heaven Supporting Jade Pillar he left in the Western Wenchen Continent earlier. It seemed as though he summoned both Holy Artifacts after the continent entered the world.

The moment they saw the Stone Rod in Shang Xia’s hand, Liu Tianyu seemed to have thought of something and she screamed in shock, “It’s you!”

Shang Xia chuckled in a strange voice. Stopping Xiao Chengyu’s crazed assault with the Stellar Cauldron, Shang Xia actually turned to point the Stone Rod at Liu Tianyu.

A chill ran down her heart as she was prepared to take on anything Shang Xia would throw at her.

She didn’t expect that the blow she was prepared for would not come. Instead, the Five Element Ring that she had been fighting against earlier released rays of resplendent light before rushing at them with blinding speed. A powerful five colored light emerged and swallowed her along with her divine weapon.

“The divine weapon that made up the spatial gate actually belonged to you?!” Liu Tianyu couldn’t help but release another shrill cry. Even Xiao Chengyu couldn’t believe what she was hearing.

As it turned out, Shang Xia was responsible for holding down both of them!

He was clearly only at the peak of the first tier Martial Void Realm, and even with the blessing of the World’s Will, he should possess combat strength in the second tier... How could he fight them both at the same time?!

Even if Liu Tianyu and Xiao Chengyu didn’t give it their all earlier, the other side was able to conceal his involvement when fighting them. Both of them thought that there was a hidden True Immortal waiting to strike and held back for fear of being sneak attacked.

Liu Tianyu might have been swallowed by the five colored light, but the light prison that held her seemed to be reaching its limits. Loud cracks and pops came from the Five Element Ring, and it seemed like it would shatter the next moment.

However, the short second she was stalled was more than enough.

Leaping into the space before him, Shang Xia poured the energy contained in his Six Direction Origin into the Stone Rod.

With his cultivation reaching the peak of the first tier Six Direction Realm, he was able to possess combat strength rivaling those in the second tier after receiving the blessing from the world. Along with the support he received from the You Continent, he possessed frightening capabilities.

“Liu Tianyu, watch out!” No matter how strained their relationship was, Xiao Chengyu couldn’t help but remind her.

That wasn’t all. Xiao Chengyu released the flames around her and sent them over to protect Liu Tianyu.

With her reminder, Liu Tianyu broke through the restraints of the Five Element Ring before wrapping herself up in the stream of white light she summoned.

The same time she broke free, the flames arrived to protect her.

With the Stone Rod turning into a massive phantom in the space above her, layers of protection were shattered and corroded. A loud blast rang through space as the flames above Liu Tianyu scattered to a large extent. Liu Tianyu’s Heaven Embroidered domain was also shattered completely.

Since the flames scattered, Xiao Chengyu’s domain was also damaged.

Fortunately, she wasn’t the main target of the attack and she wouldn’t suffer too heavy injuries. She would also be able to restore her Void Origin after some time.

As for Liu Tianyu... It wouldn’t be easy for her to recover from the blow.

Releasing a loud scream, blood flowed down the corners of Liu Tianyu’s lips. With the stream of light surrounding her, she prepared to escape.

A tight frown could be seen on Shang Xia’s face, but the next moment, it was replaced by a sinister grin.

Gesturing into the void before him, the Five Element Ring started to spin. Despite being damaged, it managed to release another ring of light that spun the other way!

Both light rings emitted powerful rays of light and flew after the fleeing Liu Tianyu. The next instant, the void around the second tier Martial Void Realm True Immortal crumbled and her movement art was interrupted. She was forced out from the void.

At the same time, Shang Xia, who was already prepared, slammed the Heavenly Supporting Jade Pillar down at the shocked Liu Tianyu.

“Stop!”

“Young one, you dare...”

Multiple yells tore through the void, but no one could free themselves to save Liu Tianyu at that point!

No... Xiao Chengyu had the capability to do so.

However, she didn’t move to stop Shang Xia at all. She watched as the rod smashed into Liu Tianyu’s already broken domain she was forcing herself to maintain. It crushed her Void Origin completely before slamming into her true body.

“Liu Tianyu is finished...” Xiao Chengyu stared unblinkingly at the scene before her, but she was met with an unresigned gaze from Liu Tianyu.

Snorting coldly in her heart, Xiao Chengyu turned into a streak of orange flame that flew away.

It was true that she would be able to save Liu Tianyu, but her Void Origin would be pulverized by Shang Xia’s Stone Rod! She would suffer the same extent of injuries Liu Tianyu received earlier.

The moment her Void Origin was damaged, recovering was the least of her concerns. Her future path of cultivation would be severed! All she could do would be to wait for death to come!

Even if she got unusually lucky, she would need dozens of years to restore herself to her original level and waste an ungodly amount of resources.

Time was the most precious commodity they had... Even if they were in the Martial Void Realm, how many extra years did they have to live?

Why should I take that strike in your stead?! Our relationship isn’t at that level yet!

That was the thought running through Xiao Chengyu’s mind as she made her escape.

Even though she had been struck by Shang Xia’s Stone Rod, Liu Tianyu wasn’t killed instantly. However, her domain was shattered and her Void Origin was in shambles. She was basically free to be slaughtered.

Shang Xia didn’t stop Xiao Chengyu from running. Even if he wanted to, it would be impossible.

Shang Xia couldn’t help but sigh when he looked at Liu Tianyu whose rage was smoldering in her heart as she was unresigned to her fate.

Thinking back to the time he took 3 years to grind Dugu Yuanshan’s soul down, killing a True Immortal was much easier for him at his current level. Even if Liu Tianyu was lacking when compared to Dugu Yuanshan, it didn’t matter.

Regardless, Liu Tianyu was basically dead at that point while Xiao Chengyu escaped. Even though he used 2 Holy Artifacts to achieve what he did, his combat skills were enough to shock everyone present.

The situation above the heavenly screen of the Spirit Luxuriant World turned on its head. One of the foreign True Immortals fighting Liu Jingsheng turned and left without hesitation.

Following which, the True Immortal from the Azure Qing World fighting Lu Wuzi and Zhang Jianzi sighed before turning to leave. They were powerless to stop them.

“Forget it, forget it...” True Immortal Jiu sighed and waved his sleeves. A powerful gray-black qi surged forth and he grabbed 2 True Immortals from his Spirit Tinkle World. At the side, he yelled, “Fellow experts from the Spirit Abundance World, it’s best if you don’t linger for long...”

Perhaps he was confident in his strength, so he didn't leave immediately. The True Immortals of the Spirit Tinkle World stood at the side and waited for the experts of the Spirit Abundance World to retreat.

Chu Wugen covered his fellow True Immortals while the sword domain in the distance disappeared. Hua Jianlou snorted, “For us to fail this time... It won’t be easy to scheme against the Spirit Luxuriant World in the future!”

Kou Chongxue and Huang Jinghan tumbled out in sorry states, but their auras were pretty stable. It seemed as though they didn’t suffer too much.

“Maybe thanks for True Immortal Hua’s guidance!”

“I hope to fight you again. I will definitely head back and contemplate what I learned today.” Huang Jinghan muttered.

Clearly, both of their spirits weren’t affected by the battle.

Hua Jianlou snorted once, but there was a trace of admiration in his eyes. “I’m actually looking forward to it!”

The next second, Kou Chongxue’s aura surged again as he truly stepped into the second tier Martial Void Realm.
