Chapter 1599: First Try Pt.3

Faced with Zhuo Gudao's attack, which harnessed the power of starlight contained in the Spirit Observation World, the Star Origin Lord’s clone that contained a strand of his soul after he awakened roared with laughter. "Kid, you seem to have forgotten who taught you your skills!"

Zhuo Gudao's expression sank instantly.

At that moment, he understood why he had been delayed so long by a clone that was only at the initial stage of the Martial Emptiness Realm.

After the wisp of the Star Origin Lord's awakened soul entered the clone, it gained all the knowledge of the Star Origin Lord. Anything Zhuo Gudao knew that was part of his inheritance was known, and everything Zhuo Gudao didn’t know was also stuck in his mind.

It could be said that Zhuo Gudao’s every move was within the Star Origin Lord’s expectations. At the same time, he was able to predict any skill the technique Zhuo Gudao could unleash.

Even though he knew that he messed up, Zhuo Gudao didn’t hesitate. He continued to channel the power of the Star Origin Dao Field in the Spirit Observation World.

The next instant, the power of starlight that Zhuo Gudao invoked, supported by the Spirit Observation World, transformed into a dazzling beam that pierced through the void, the power it contained far exceeding Zhuo Gudao’s own cultivation level.

Had Shang Xia faced a strike like that outside the Spirit Tinkle World, he wouldn’t even try resisting. He would simply turn to run.

There was no doubt about it. Not only had Zhuo Gudao further refined the powerful move after the creation of the Spirit Observation World. With it, he was also able to draw on much stronger power far exceeding his limits.

This was also the confidence behind Zhuo Gudao's bold claims at the gathering outside the Spirit Observation World where he would be able to hold 2 clones back.

When faced with the terrifying beam, the clone that had been mocking Zhuo Gudao’s efforts couldn’t help but turn a little serious. However, he still commented from a position of superiority, “Being able to inherit the position of the Star Origin Guards Commander... I guess you’re not a fool. You managed to find something new, but that’s about it...”

Before the voice fell, the pillar of starlight aimed at the clone and the heavenly screen behind arrived.

The various battle formations that had been engaged in battle turned at the same time to watch what happened.

Under the beam of starlight, the clone that had been fighting Zhuo Gudao was quickly blasted to nothingness.

The vast column of light paused only momentarily in the void before continuing to rush towards the heavenly screen.

However, in the next moment, over three-quarters of the heavenly screen started to glow with starlight, turning into a giant sea of stars.

The beam of light that was created from starlight pierced through the heavenly screen before scattering completely. It was like a giant drop of water that fell into a massive sea. Even though ripples looked like they were produced from the impact, it barely had an effect.

With the light dissipating, world origin emerged from the heavenly screen before another clone took shape. Behind him, the hole in the heavenly screen quickly closed.

“I’ve told you before, your methods won’t have any effect!” The clone that possessed the Star Origin Lord’s awakened soul returned. Even though the clone was different, it felt like they were the same person.

“Is that so? That might not be the case.” Zhuo Gudao suddenly let out a cold laugh, seeming to have discovered something from the recent strike. He stepped forward and pressed down on the head of the clone.

“How dare you!” The clone roared in anger, yet, he didn’t retreat. He stood firm in front of the heavenly screen that had just been pierced through.

Both of them clashed again. This time, Zhuo Gudao didn’t use the power of the Star Origin Dao Field or the Spirit Observation World. However, the battle seemed completely different from before. He firmly suppressed the clone and even though the clone had a strand of the Star Origin Lord’s awakened soul, he could only struggle to survive.

Further away, amid a massive spatial collapse, 3 somewhat disheveled figures tumbled out. It was Shang Xia and Yuan Chan, both grand completion stage True Immortals. On the other side was the clone of the Star Origin Lord.

In the battle that just unfolded in the temporarily created separate space, although Shang Xia had not deployed his most powerful techniques, he held off the clone with Yuan Chan’s assistance.

The short moment was all the 7 high-level True Immortals of the Spirit Mammoth World’s battle formation needed.

What they faced was ultimately a clone the strength of a Sage, but no soul of the Star Origin Lord. The clone only relied on his instincts.

Of course, the Spirit Mammoth World’s battle formation couldn’t destroy the clone so easily. They took some time in order to wear the clone down before it finally crumbled.

With the destruction of the clone, the high-level True Immortals of the Spirit Mammoth World’s battle formation started to absorb the world origin that was produced. Shang Xia hesitated slightly before joining them, but he controlled his speed of absorption to be slightly weaker than Yuan Chan.

From the defeat of the clone to the dissipation of world origin... the 9 high-level True Immortals barely managed to retrieve a bit of it.

Even so, from their expressions, it was clear that they felt that had benefited significantly from the operation. There were some who wanted to leave immediately in order to digest the gains.

Shang Xia did not dare to reveal a differing opinion. However, he scoffed at them inwardly for being so easily contented. Whatever it was, he understood how they planned to weaken the Star Origin Lord and the Essence Ping World with their combined assault.
