Chapter 1398: Breaking World, Void Seal, Void Emptiness

The battle against the Essence Du World was actually led by Guan Qingzi.

True Immortal Yang Cha was a loyal supporter of Guan Qingzi and he was also present, despite his disagreement with the sixth tier True Immortal’s decision.

It was the other fifth tier True Immortal, Yu Tieshan, who was dragged over by them to do battle that found the entire situation absurd. After hearing what happened from Guan Ziqing and Yang Cha, he felt that both of their brains weren’t working properly.

For a high-level True Immortal they met for the first time, Guan Ziqing actually chose to bring the 2 of them to hide in the vicinity of the Essence Du World!

If not for the fact that the Spirit Tip World had been united when resisting the invasion of the Essence Du World and Guan Ziqing managed to establish his prestige in his world, Yu Tieshan would probably ask them to fuck themselves.

Even though Yu Tieshan agreed to their absurd plan, he still laid down his bottom line. He would operate with his safety in mind. The moment a life-threatening danger approached, they would have to retreat without hesitation. They wouldn’t risk themselves for a mysterious foreign expert they had no connection to.

Guan Ziqing agreed immediately. Even though the Spirit Tip World’s battle with the Essence Du World caused high-level True Immortals to die, others had risen accordingly. They had 5 high-level True Immortals in total and other than a fourth tier Elysium True Immortal who was left to watch over their world and a fifth tier True Immortal who was doing something important. The remaining 3 had all come.

Without mentioning Yu Tieshan, Guan Ziqing didn’t wish for anyone to die in the hands of the Essence Du World. All he planned to do was to help Shang Xia so as to gain a favor in the future.

Of course... It wasn’t as though they didn’t have other intentions.

It was true that reality was harsh. Things rarely went according to plan. As soon as the 3 arrived in the vicinity of the Essence Du World, they tried to secretly head over to the spot where Shang Xia and the Spirit Ark would pass through. They didn’t expect to run into a bunch of True Immortals of the Essence Du World!

When they saw the members of the Spirit Tip World, they also understood that their secret passage had been exposed and they were probably waiting to catch them off guard.

They had been fighting for tens of years and both sides knew each other well. They could be considered old friends. There was nothing more to say once they ran into each other. All they had to do was to leap straight into battle.

The members of the Essence Du World were also equally as surprised to see their acquaintances of the Spirit Tip World. They received orders from their Martial Emptiness Realm Sage and all they knew was an approximate location. They didn’t think that the moment they surrounded the area, 3 high-level True Immortals of the Spirit Tip World would pop out of nowhere.

Thinking about how they were warned that Beast Warriors might be behind some sort of invasion attempt, along with the appearance of the 3 high-level True Immortals of the Spirit Tip World, the experts of the Essence Du World jumped into battle immediately.

Both sides didn’t hold back and the battle immediately reached its climax.

The experts of the Spirit Tip World may be outnumbered, but all of them were high-level True Immortals! They had terrifying combat capabilities and they could move about unhindered in the chaotic streams if they wished.

There were 4 members of the Essence Du World who came, and 2 of them were high-level True Immortals. The other 2 were of the second and third tier respectively.

The moment the battle started, the second tier True Immortal of the Essence Du World was focus fired by the experts of the Spirit Tip World and was killed instantly.

The Essence Du World lost a second tier True Immortal the moment the battle started and the other 3 quickly distanced themselves to call for reinforcements.

Even so, by the time the experts of the Essence Du World arrived to help, the third tier True Immortal of the Essence Du World suffered heavy injuries at the hands of Guan Ziqing.

The experts of the Spirit Tip World also showed ugly expressions as they didn’t expect help to arrive so quickly.

Of course, the reason they rushed over so quickly was because they were nearby to begin with. They were another team that received orders from their Sage to surround the Spirit Ark!

Another 4 True Immortals arrived, and like the previous team, 2 of them were high-level True Immortals. There were 2 fifth tier True Immortals of the Essence Du World present at the moment and 2 fourth tier True Immortals. The experts of the Spirit Tip World were quickly forced back.

If not for the fact that Guan Ziqing and the others were high-level True Immortals and injured the third tier True Immortal without caring for their image, they might have already sustained some injuries.

Realizing their plan had failed, Guan Ziqing and the rest also realized that it would be difficult to retreat.

Just as Guan Ziqing and the others were suppressed by the experts of the Essence Du World and when things were taking a turn for the worst, the Tongyou Institution’s Spirit Ark arrived. Shang Xia also entered the battle in an extremely tyrannical manner.

The moment he made his move, he unleashed the fifth move of his Six Harmony Rod Technique, Breaking World!

Shang Xia didn’t care about friend or foe. He had been storing energy for some time and even though the strike didn’t come too quickly, it was powerful enough to force everyone to back away.

That was exactly what he wanted. That was, he would be able to carve a path through the void for the Spirit Ark behind him.

To be able to do so, not only did he have to stabilize the space around it, he would also have to ensure no one tried to destroy the sealed space.

Preventing anyone from causing trouble was the most dangerous part.

Shang Xia might be able to create the path with his abilities, but that would mean that he wouldn’t be able to unleash a strike as powerful as the previous one without storing up enough energy!

If anyone thought that Shang Xia was weaker because he couldn’t unleash Breaking World... Well, that would be a mistake. As the Spirit Ark barreled towards the path he created, he tapped the void with his Stone Rod, causing a fourth tier True Immortal locked in combat with Guan Ziqing to be sent flying.

Shang Xia separated the battlefield, but he didn’t separate the individual fights that were happening all around.

Guan Ziqing was besieged by a fourth and fifth tier True Immortal and even though they were unable to take him, a sixth tier True Immortal down, they were able to keep him busy in order for the rest to get a chance at dealing with the other high-level True Immortals of the Spirit Tip World.

Shang Xia saw the battles on both sides and even though he didn’t know who was from the Essence Du World, he could recognize Guan Ziqing and Yang Cha.

The members of the Essence Du World didn’t know who Shang Xia was, and because of the way he had made his entry earlier, they didn’t know if he was a friend or foe. Even Yang Cha had a fear lingering in his heart from witnessing the blow and didn’t know of Shang Xia’s intentions.

Of course, that didn’t stop everyone from raising their guard against him.

It was too bad in front of absolute strength, being cautious was useless.

Shang Xia’s seemingly casual tap in the void with his weapon earlier destroyed the domain of a fourth tier True Immortal and caused him to suffer some internal injuries, and he seemed to have lost his ability to fight.

The fifth tier True Immortal entangled with Guan Ziqing couldn’t care about the fight any longer as he covered his teammate to retreat.

That wasn’t all. The fifth tier True Immortal notified everyone to meet up with him as soon as possible.

After sending out his move earlier, Shang Xia didn’t do anything else. That was because Song Zhen had already entered the passage he created through the battlefield.

He was fully focused on protecting the fragile protection barrier around the Spirit Ark, preventing it from shattering.

All of a sudden, he swung his Stone Rod in the other direction.

With Guan Ziqing holding back the fifth tier True Immortal of the Essence Du World who was protecting his comrade, Yu Tieshan was also holding back another fifth tier True Immortal of the Essence Du World. However, that meant that Yang Cha was fighting everyone else!

Not only was he attacked by a fourth tier True Immortal, he also had to fight off second and third tier True Immortals helping at the side. His situation was turning back really quickly.

Because of the fifth tier True Immortal of the Essence Du World’s summons, those holding Yang Cha back started to hesitate slightly. Even though they were called over to regroup with their fellow experts, a third tier True Immortal managed to creep behind Yang Cha without being noticed. As long as they continued to fight, they might be able to severely injure the fourth tier True Immortal of the Spirit Tip World!

As they hesitated slightly, Shang Xia’s Void Emptiness arrived.

There was no suspense. Facing the overwhelmingly powerful Shang Xia, the fourth tier True Immortal of the Essence Du World could only desperately defend.

The divine weapon in his hand was sent flying as his domain was shattered. The defensive talisman he used was pierced through, and his secret art hadn’t been fully unleashed when he was sent flying through the void. The impact also caused him to spit out a mouthful of blood.

The fourth tier True Immortal couldn’t even heave a sigh of relief for living through the blow when the warnings of the other True Immortals came.

The fourth tier True Immortal’s inner qi was still extremely chaotic and his reactions were a little slow. He tried to escape the best he could with his injuries, but he was still a step too late.

A terrifying aura descended and before he could fully react, it entered from his back and started to spread across his body. A majority of his internal organs were destroyed.

Because of his strong vitality, he didn’t die instantly. When he turned around to look at what was coming from behind, he noticed blood streaming down Yang Cha’s lips as he revealed a twisted smile.

Yang Cha was the weakest high-level True Immortal the Spirit Tip World sent, and he was an arrow at the end of his flight after being surrounded and attacked by so many True Immortals.

Shang Xia assisted him at the very last moment, but he didn’t choose to escape. Instead, he didn’t hesitate to take on the attacks from the second and third tier True Immortals of the Essence Du World so that he could deal a heavy blow to kill the fourth tier True Immortal of the Essence Du World.

In the stable void path he created above, Shang Xia couldn’t help but do a double take when he saw Yang Cha’s decision. Of course, he merely took a second glance at it before turning his attention away.

Chuckling softly, Yang Cha cupped his fists in Shang Xia’s direction as the True Immortals of the Essence Du World who surrounded him retreated into the void to regroup with the others.

Not too long after they left, Yu Tieshan rushed over only to see Yang Cha standing alone in the void. He couldn’t help but raise an eyebrow in shock.

At the same time, the Tongyou Institution’s Spirit Ark passed through half the passage.

Because of Shang Xia’s horrifying powerful strikes, the battle drew to a close.

The experts of the Essence Du World retreated and the True Immortals of the Spirit Tip World also regrouped with each other. Together, Yu Tieshan and the rest wanted to give Shang Xia a greeting.

If Yu Tieshan was originally opposed to the entire plan and was only persuaded by Guan Ziqing and Yang Cha, after witnessing the extent of Shang Xia’s abilities, his views on the matter started to change.

However, Yang Cha grabbed his sleeves to stop him before he could fly over.

“Don’t head over now.” Yang Cha coughed several times because of his injuries.

“Why not?” Yu Tieshan couldn’t understand the reason.

Isn’t it time to show that we came all the way here to assist him and strengthen our relationship?

Guan Ziqing revealed a helpless expression and sighed, “The timing is not right. We originally came here to help him so that he would owe us a favor, but he saved us from the encirclement of the Essence Du World instead and even helped us kill a high-level True Immortal. We truly embarrassed ourselves this time...”

Yu Tieshan was shocked and he hesitated slightly before growling reluctantly, “Without us, he would have run into those people! How can he deal with them alone...”

“Enough! We’re not talking about this anymore.” Guan Ziqing shut him down instantly. “He would have run into them, but he didn’t because of us!”

Yang Cha quickly tried to change the topic seeing as things were turning sour. “Hey, their ship is about to pass through the passage. We should go over and give our greetings now.”

As they started to move, Guan Ziqing, whose cultivation level was the highest among those present, turned to stare behind them. His expression sank again. “Not good... The Essence Du World has even more backup!”
