Chapter 1489: Azure Ruling World and Spirit Frost World Pt.3

Shang Xia’s clone was destroyed quickly, but Shang Xia wasn’t too surprised about that. What caught his attention was the fact that there was a fourth tier True Immortal-level existence in the Azure Ruling World!

“How can there be a fourth tier True Immortal there?!” Shang Xia frowned as he thought about the last seconds of his clone’s life.

Due to the clone’s limited abilities, Shang Xia wasn’t able to see the figure who appeared at the end. He only saw a faint outline and the brilliant lights before everything ended.

Complex emotions quickly ran through his mind.

How can an existence like that appear in the Azure Ruling World that is overrun with spiritual beasts?!

How can a fourth tier True Immortal remain in an Azure World?

There was also the matter of the golden and silver beams that appeared at the very end to destroy his clone. No matter how he tried to think about it, the aura was foreign. However, he had just seen the Ying Brothers using their divine weapons earlier and if anyone were to chalk it up to a coincidence that they were similar, he wouldn’t believe it.

“However, what I can determine is that the Ying Brothers weren’t the ones who killed my clone...” Shang Xia mumbled to himself. “However, the strange figure definitely has something to do with them! Perhaps that’s the reason they chose to invade this world...”

After thinking about the possibilities, Shang Xia decided that he had to create another clone as soon as possible to speak to the Ying Brothers to clarify the matter, or to enter the Azure Ruling World again.

However, creating another clone wasn’t going to be easy. He already separated a good portion of his soul to support a high-level True Immortal External Avatar to take care of Star Beast Nest No.2 and another External Avatar to follow Song Zhen and the others.

He also lent his energy to the Twin Star Pirates by giving them a bunch of Heaven Liberation Talismans.

He also had to maintain some sort of combat strength to protect Xin Lu and that was why he felt that creating another clone was a stretch.

Fortunately for him, he would be able to send a portion of his divine soul into the world the moment anyone activated the Heaven Liberation Talisman. Even though he couldn’t control them like his puppets, he would be able to learn about what was going on.

Helpless, he could only send another transmission to the floating continent. He informed them about the person who killed his clone and inquired about his identity.

However, Shang Xia didn’t receive their response. When he was thinking about how they were guarding against him, a delayed response arrived to mention how the Ying Brothers had left and that they replaced themselves on the floating continent with clones who gave Shang Xia the reply.

Shang Xia was shocked by the news.

For them to leave the floating continent... Where could they have gone?

Shang Xia looked in the direction of the Azure Ruling World despite not being able to see where he was.

The Ying Brothers were fourth tier True Immortals and were high-level True Immortals. There was no way they could have entered the Azure Ruling World. Even if they sealed off their inner qi, they would be discovered by the world... Unless they were willing to seal their cultivation off to the third tier. However... That would mean that they were paying a massive price!

For them to do something like that would mean that the treasure they were looking for in the Azure Ruling World was of great importance to them. Shang Xia could only wonder what it was.

He thought back to the blurry figure and the golden and silver light...

When he was thinking of what he should do, Xin Lu, who had been deducing the location of the other world, spat out a mouthful of blood.

Shang Xia was startled but he didn’t rush over immediately. Instead, he asked, “How are you?”

Xin Lu looked a little worn out and her figure was slightly withered, but a look of excitement could be seen on her face. “Hehehehe! This grandaunt’s skills are better than theirs!”

“You found them?!” Shang Xia’s eyes widened in shock.

Xin Lu’s chest heaved up and down as she took several deep breaths while mumbling, “Not yet, but I got the approximate location...”

Xin Lu wanted to explain more but Shang Xia saw that she wasn’t in the best condition at the moment and stopped her. “Relax. Adjust your condition before saying more...”

Shaking her head, Xin Lu steadied herself and sent out 10 palm seals. Every single one of them contained a large amount of her inner qi and she swayed even more weakly on the platform.

Once she was done, she nodded at Shang Xia before falling into a state of weakness. She couldn’t even speak.

The Twin Star Pirates around the platform who were tasked by the Ying Brothers to take care of her quickly helped her off and Shang Xia gave her a drop of Three Lights Water. The moment she refined it, she felt a lot better.

A moment later when the blood finally returned to her face, she explained “The Stargazer on the other side is extremely accomplished in a single form of the art and far surpasses me in that regard. However, that’s all they could do. After I switched up my methods, I was able to lead them around in circles to locate them. However... Because of that Stargazer or other powerful existences, they are stronger than me and I tried to escape from the obstructions they created, but still suffered a backlash from drawing on the power of starlight.”

Shang Xia nodded with a smile. “Rest and restore your strength. After you’re done, you can continue locating them. If you can’t find them on your first try, you can always look around the area and find them eventually.”

He didn’t think that Xin Lu would shake her head to reject his suggestion immediately. “How can I do that? I might have suffered a backlash, but the Stargazer on the other side also suffered the same. They might have surpassed me in strength, but they wouldn’t be able to draw on the power of starlight so easily to unleash their art again. I have to find them now!”

With a frown on his face, Shang Xia muttered, “But... Can you hold out?”

“Heh, even though I’m injured from the backlash, it won’t stop me from unleashing my art of stargazing. The other Stargazer might be stronger than me, but recovering from the backlash should be more difficult. After all, they might not have any skills to quickly restore their abilities.” Xin Lu grinned confidently. When she saw that Shang Xia was about to persuade her again, she quickly added, “After I locate their world, I should be able to break the bottleneck and become a Grand Stargazer like Little Yuan!”

Shang Xia opened his mouth but no words came out.

...

Outside the Original Stars Corner in the Chaotic Sea of Stars, Song Zhen’s merchant group led their fleet in a certain direction.

On the large-scale Star Ship in the lead, Song Zhen looked at the person beside him warily. “Are you sure the Lord wants us to head to head to the Solitary Star Region? Is there really a way to head over to the Azure World?”

Shang Xia’s External Avatar who barely had the strength of a first tier True Immortal grabbed his hair and yelled in frustration, “The information I received from my true body has been greatly disrupted! All I know is the Solitary Star Region and something about a spatial vortex!”

“Spatial vortex?” Zhu Nang, who ran over from the large-scale Star Ship at the end of the fleet, gasped in shock. “Are you talking about the spatial vortex around the 8 Earth Stars?”

Shang Xia turned to stare at him in shock.

“You 2 seem to know what it is?” Shang Xia’s clone gasped in shock.

Forcing a smile, Song Zhen couldn’t help but explain, “It’s not hard to find that place, but how are we supposed to find the Azure World from there?”

Zhu Nang also asked helplessly, “It’s said that the Solitary Star Region housed an Essence World. However, it was destroyed because of some reason and a massive spatial vortex has existed since then. It is also one of the most dangerous regions in the Chaotic Sea of Stars!”

“Ruins of an Essence World?” Shang Xia’s External Avatar gasped.

Zhu Nang revealed a strange look but he didn’t hesitate to continue speaking, “It’s not the ruins of an Essence World. It’s a spatial vortex created due to its destruction! It’s much more dangerous than the chaotic streams!”

Shang Xia’s External Avatar blinked once and asked, “How should we proceed then?”

With strange looks, Song Zhen and Zhu Nang stared at each other in confusion.

How the fuck should we know?

“We might know what to do after we arrive.” A voice came from behind them all of a sudden and the only person who could interrupt them was Yan Ming, the only Stargazer present.

“Do you mean to wait for my true body to send instructions on how to proceed?” Shang Xia’s External Avatar raised an eyebrow. His expression wasn’t too good and he continued, “If the spatial vortex is really more dangerous than the chaotic streams, waiting for my true body’s instructions will be difficult.”

Yan Ming looked at them all before saying confidently, “What if us Stargazers work together on both sides?”
