Chapter 1457: BANKAI!!!!!!!!!!

If Shang Xia had stolen world origin undetected in the Dynasties Edge under the cover of the fluctuating World Origin Source, his actions in the Tong Continent were basically him announcing to the Essence Xing World that he was standing against the dynasties.

Messing with the World Origin Source, damaging a Dao Field, stealing world origin, causing the destruction of their meticulously laid out formation to help the experts of the various factions escape... Everything he did had basically caught the attention of the Sages. With their abilities, Shang Xia knew that they would be able to kill him and end his meddling once and for all.

As such, after draining the world origin from the World Origin Source connected to the Tong Continent after directing world origin to the Qi Dynasty Capital, Shang Xia activated a Six Direction Teleportation Talisman and escaped outside the heavenly screen.

When he escaped, he left behind a clone and stuck an improved version of his Illusion Talisman to make it look like a high-level True Immortal. At the same time, he didn’t forget to hide himself with the secret arts at his disposal.

Naturally, a clone wouldn’t be able to delay the Sages, but it was enough as long as he could buy just an additional second for himself!

Everything happened as he expected. After sucking the world origin from the Tong Continent dry and directing world origin to flood the Qi Dynasty Capital, the Sages locked onto his position instantly!

Without feeling the slightest warning, Shang Xia’s disguised clone was instantly destroyed.

When everything stood still earlier and the fluctuations of the World Origin Source was suppressed, Shang Xia could feel that his clone had been eliminated.

Disguised as an expert from the Essence Ping World, Shang Xia pushed the Star Ship to move even faster, but at the same time, he didn’t make it look like he was in a rush to leave.

As he made his escape, he started to think back to the last feeling before the death of his clone. He wondered how he would have dealt with it if he had been caught up in it.

He was clear that leaving behind a clone wouldn’t fool the Sages of the Essence Xing World. In fact, it would most likely enrage them even more.

The only thing he could think of was to run into the chaotic streams before they found his tracks.

As the thought flashed in his mind, a frosty intent emerged from the Essence Xing World and brushed past him as it continued to expand.

Shang Xia’s heart pounded in fright as he glanced back at the Essence Xing World. He saw a majestic figure that was covered in bright golden light appearing above the heavenly screen.

He revealed an expression of endless shock. There was no doubt in his mind that the golden figure was a Martial Emptiness Realm Sage of the Essence Xing World.

Even though he could see that the gaze of the mighty figure hadn’t turned his way, he was certain that his identity had been exposed.

He might not know how the other party recognized him, but he felt his soul freezing as his thoughts slowed. It was exactly what his clone experienced in his final moments.

Fortunately, the Man and Heaven Synergy Chapter he had been training for dozens of years finally showed its effects. Even though his divine soul was starting to freeze, it wasn’t completely immobilized. It was just that his thoughts became a lot slower than usual.

Thankfully, he was already holding a Myriad Tinted Cloud Talisman. With a simple gesture, he activated it and a large cloud appeared around him, forming some sort of special fortress that defended himself and his Star Ship.

The moment the cloud appeared, Shang Xia regained control over his soul.

Even so, he didn’t rejoice. Instead, his expression turned even more serious and when he looked outside the cloud, he discovered that the mighty golden figure above the heavenly screen of the Essence Xing World had already disappeared.

With his expression changing, the aura of an expert of the Essence Xing World was expelled from his body. He burst forth with the full might of a sixth tier True Immortal.

That wasn’t all. He grabbed the Star Origin Lord Robe from his spatial artifact and he was able to obtain the strength of a sixth tier True Immortal at the large completion stage.

He didn’t relax after that. Pressing his right hand against his glabella, the projection of the Crimson Soul Tablet appeared in it. He poured Six Direction Qi into it, causing the projection to become a lot more corporeal.

Tossing out another Myriad Tinted Cloud Talisman, Shang Xia clutched another talisman in his left hand. This time, it was the Fusion Talisman that consisted of 5 Variant Talismans.

Even thought he didn’t know the effects of the talisman yet, with the threat of a Martial Emptiness Realm Sage before him, he had to risk it all.

Just as he completed his preparations, the cloud he was in split in half as both of them rushed in different directions towards the streams of chaotic space.

Without warning, a massive palm formed above one of the clouds, slapping down mercilessly and scattering it.

Unfortunately for the Sage, Shang Xia and his Star Ship weren’t in the cloud.

The second cloud that had traversed thousands of miles in the void split again, and once again, the same scene played out.

A Myriad Tinted Cloud Talisman might be a peak-level talisman of the sixth rank, but it was barely able to defend against an attack that contained Seventh Order energy conjured by battle formations made up of True Immortals. Facing the attack from a Sage, it was torn apart in an instant.

Unfortunately, the Sage missed twice thanks to the concealment abilities of the talisman.

However, after dodging twice, Shang Xia knew that there was no way he would get lucky again.

He rushed out into the void suddenly. The moment he emerged, he activated the Fusion Talisman in his left hand and a cluster of starlight surrounded him. In an instant, the power of the stars continued to gather around him and he quickly turned into a lofty figure that held a majestic tablet in his right hand.

Shang Xia, who became as strong as a large completion stage sixth tier True Immortal with the boost from the Star Origin Lord Robe, felt his soul strengthening to a terrifying degree. In a mystical state where he couldn’t even understand, much less explain, he faced the Sage of the Essence Xing World.

With the projection of the Crimson Soul Tablet in his other hand, he was able to wield the energy of an expert of such a high level.

As starlight continued to gather around him, the golden figure appeared in the void once again. The void around him started to crumble before a young figure that was clad in golden robes revealed himself. Even though he looked young, there were many wrinkles on his forehead and he exuded a profound aura that showed the experiences he had been through. On his face was a look of surprise as he stared at Shang Xia who had turned into a giant figure covered in starlight.

With a grave expression on his face, Shang Xia didn’t make a move. Instead, he flipped his wrist as the projection of the Crimson Soul Tablet disappeared before turning around to flee into the chaotic streams.

Yu Tang, the Sage of the Essence Xing World who had been chasing Shang Xia, didn’t make a move to stop him.
