Chapter 1588: Gathering at the Spirit Observation World Pt.2

After Liu Jiuzhen appeared, he nodded at the True Immortals of the 3 World Alliance before staring at the void not far away.

Feng Ziying looked back in astonishment, only to see what was originally an empty space ripple like a curtain being drawn. It quickly rolled up again, shrinking into a scroll that landed in someone's hand.

The scene was familiar to the True Immortals of the 3 World Alliance. Previously, the high-level True Immortals of the Spirit Mammoth World had escaped from the Star Origin Lord’s powered up clone using the same method.

The person holding the scroll was Zou Shanhai, a sixth tier True Immortal from the Spirit Mammoth World.

However, Shang Xia’s attention was on the individuals beside him. On his left stood a familiar figure, Yuan Chan, a grand completion stage True Immortal who was also from the Spirit Mammoth World. On Zou Shanhai’s other side stood an unfamiliar sixth tier True Immortal whose aura was distinctly different from the other True Immortals of the Spirit Mammoth World.

"An outsider?" Kou Chongxue whispered to Shang Xia.

Shang Xia nodded solemnly.

Zuo Li and Kou Chongxue didn’t seem pleased at the discovery.

The next moment, Liu Jiuzhen spoke in a similarly chilly tone, "True Immortals of the Spirit Mammoth World, please follow me. As for this individual... Please wait here."

Zou Shanhai frowned. "True Immortal Liu, True Immortal Ma is a distinguished guest invited by our Spirit Mammoth World. Is this how the Star Origin Dao Field and Spirit Observation World treat guests?"

Liu Jiuzhen smiled faintly and replied, "The saying goes, guests should not bring their own guests. The gathering is for esteemed True Immortals from various realms of the Heaven Observation Field. Do you think it’s appropriate to bring this individual along?"

Zou Shanhai was about to respond when he suddenly realized the surrounding glances were exceptionally cold.

At this moment, the outsider True Immortal Ma spoke with a smile, "It's no matter. True Immortal Zou, you and the others go ahead. I came out of curiosity about this region and would take this chance to explore a bit."

Zou Shanhai was about to respond with an apology when Liu Jiuzhen's chilly voice cut in again, "It would be best if True Immortal Ma does not wander around. It might be preferable to wait here for the True Immortals of the Spirit Mammoth World, as the gathering might not take too long."

As soon as he spoke, Zou Shanhai’s expression sank. Naturally, True Immortal Ma’s face also turned dark.

Zou Shanhai stepped forward and growled, "Is this Zhuo Gudao’s instruction?!"

Feeling the subtle pressure in the air, Liu Jiuzhen asked coolly, "Who else? Which other Sage do you think can pass down this order?”

Zhuo Gudao was now a Sage. However, it seemed as though there were some in the Heaven Observation Field who still didn’t grasp what an expert at the Martial Emptiness Realm implied.

Meanwhile, True Immortal Ma said with a smile, "If it’s Sage Zhuo's wish, I shall comply. Please convey my respects to the senior."

Zou Shanhai was taken aback, but he made no further move.

Under Liu Jiuzhen’s guidance, the True Immortals of the Spirit Mammoth World boarded another Star Ship. They eventually traveled beside the ship of the 3 World Alliance.

The other True Immortal who came with the Spirit Mammoth World who wasn’t from the Heaven Observation Field also chose to wait in the void with True Immortal Ma.

However, Shang Xia's attention was drawn to Yuan Chan. Since appearing with the Spirit Mammoth World, Yuan Chan, who had the highest cultivation, said nothing. He merely stood beside Zou Shanhai. Moreover, from the actions of the other True Immrotals of the Spirit Mammoth World, nothing seemed amiss.

Sensing Shang Xia's gaze, Yuan Chan in the starship smiled and nodded towards him, to which Shang Xia awkwardly responded.

They traveled tens of thousands of miles easily. The Star Ships carrying 2 groups of True Immortals soon arrived outside the heavenly screen of the Spirit Observation World, where a splendidly ornate hall had been erected, its interior fully visible.

Upon entering the hall, the True Immortals of the 3 World Alliance and those from the Spirit Mammoth World were led to either side.

Shang Xia noticed that the hall had gathered nearly a dozen True Immortals, most of them from different worlds in the Heaven Observation Field.

After the arrival of the 3 World Alliance and the Spirit Mammoth World, other True Immortals were also led into the hall by the members of the Star Origin Dao Field.

Finally, after it seemed like everyone had arrived, the doors started to close but the hall remained bright nonetheless.

At that moment, many True Immortals from the Star Origin Dao Field entered from another direction, and Shang Xia and others focused on the high-level True Immortals from the Star Origin Lord Manor.

Kou Chongxue’s voice rang in Shang Xia’s mind the next moment, "Zhuo Gudao wants all of them to transfer their souls from the Star Core to the Spirit Observation World. Even though they don’t dare to reject, it seems like have been friction over this matter...”

Clearly, during the ride, Feng Ziying and Kou Chongxue had communicated again through their strange special method.

As for the news Kou Chongxue just shared, they had already speculated about it. All they did now was to confirm the guess.

As the high-level True Immortals from the Star Lord's Manor entered, they indeed appeared solemn, not quite displaying the host's enthusiasm for welcoming guests, as if the banquet was more about Zhuo Gudao doing as he pleased. The lower-leveled True Immortals of the Star Origin Guards were busy shuttling around, mingling and conversing with powerful figures from various factions.

"It seems Zhuo Gudao now controls the Star Origin Guard and all the Camp Commanders. It even looks like he sidelined Tong Yutang and the high-level True Immortals of the Star Origin Lord Manor," Shang Xia quietly speculated to Kou Chongxue, who simply nodded in response without saying much.

A moment later, Shang Xia felt a disturbance in the range of his divine soul and he raised his head to look at the main seat in the hall. In a low voice, he muttered, “He’s here.”

Suddenly, a powerful aura descended in the hall. With its arrival, everything seemed to flip around completely. At the same time, the aura of all True Immortals present became suppressed.

Of course, that was also because everyone in the hall didn’t resist Zhuo Gudao’s aura when he descended. If the high-level True Immortals present were to push back collectively, there was no way for him to make such a grand entrance. Especially since there were grand completion stage True Immortals like Shang Xia, Xiong Xin, and Yuan Chan present.

Shang Xia was already familiar with the feeling. It was a Sage manipulating the World’s Will.

However, unlike other Sages who could only manipulate a small portion of the World’s WIll, Zhuo Gudao was in control of a Spirit World. He dominated a huge portion of the Spirit Observation World’s Will.

Even though it was only the will of a Spirit World, the power Zhuo Gudao displayed in that moment was enough to make everyone in the hall tremble with fear.

Zhuo Gudao's intention to assert his dominance had clearly been achieved with his arrival.
