Chapter 2091: ENOUGH

Shi Guan, Zhuo Gudao, and Kou Chongxue joined hands and tore through the heavenly screen of the Essence Zhen World.

Kou Chongxue split their world with a single sword, severing a continent from it.

That wasn’t merely cutting off a piece of land. The world origin and World’s Will connected to their World Origin Source were also cut off, turning it into a world fragment.

However, since the severed world fragment still remained within their world, if it was not taken away in time, then the severed earth veins could reconnect, and the cut off world origin would flow again. Even the separated World’s Will would fuse once more.

But how could Kou Chongxue and the others not have been prepared for it?

As his sword light dissipated, Kou Chongxue flung a rank seven talisman into the fissure of the severed land.

It was an Origin Shattering World Talisman!

The talisman could seal the off a world fragment the moment it was separated from its world, preventing the collapse of its earth veins and World Origin Source. It was the ultimate method for hunting and dividing a world.

At the same time, Shi Guan and Zhuo Gudao didn’t remain idle.

While Kou Chongxue sealed the world fragment, Zhuo Gudao tore open the breach in the heavenly screen even wider, and Shi Guan, who was even stronger than him and had higher cultivation, dragged the severed fragment, trying to rip it fully out of their world.

After throwing the Origin Shattering World Talisman, Kou Chongxue slashed again, not at another continent, but to suppress their mid-level Sage.

The Sages of the Heaven Observation Star Region divided their work clearly, not only blocking the integration of the Essence Zhen World with the Five Essence Heavenly Field, but also dividing the Essence Zhen World among themselves, unwilling to waste even the tiniest fragment.

Yet Kou Chongxue alone found it difficult to pin down their mid-level Sage. What was worse, he and the others were suppressed by the Essence Zhen World’s Will.

On the other hand, empowered by the World’s Will, their mid-level Sage wielded even greater power.

In this shift of advantage, even with Kou Chongxue’s mighty sword arts, he was suppressed after merely two exchanges.

Fortunately for him, he wasn’t fighting alone. There were three of them and seeing Kou Chongxue unable to gain the advantage, Zhuo Gudao quickly freed himself up, ignoring scattered strikes from the Essence Zhen World’s high-level cultivators as he came to Kou Chongxue’s aid.

Meanwhile, Shi Guan focused on pulling the severed world fragment.

The Essence Zhen World’s dire plight was clear to every Sage present. The Five Essence Heavenly Field was stretched to its limit and the Star Origin Lord didn’t seem to possess any other hidden cards and could only watch the events unfold.

Still, Shang Xia dared not relax. He felt strongly that the Star Origin Lord still held something in reserve, though for some reason or concern, he refrained from unleashing it fully.

Sensing the real crisis, the mid-level Sage of the Essence Zhen World fought desperately. Even against the combined attacks of Kou Chongxue and Zhuo Gudao, he held his own and gradually seized the initiative.

Kou Chongxue and Zhuo Gudao could afford to advance and retreat freely, but the mid-level Sage was defending his world and he fought with his life on the line.

Then Zhuo Gudao’s eyes gleamed, and he sneered, “Taking a fragment won’t force the Essence Zhen World to regress back to a Spirit World. Once you merge with the Five Essence Heavenly Field, you’ll definitely be dealt with by the Star Origin Lord. Why fight us to the death here?”

The mid-level Sage of the Essence Zhen World sneered back, “Sharp tongues like yours know only slander. Were it not for the Star Origin Lord’s aid, our world would have been swallowed by the void currents a long time ago! To the countless beings here, is the Star Origin Lord not a savior?”

“Ahem...” Zhuo Gudao almost choked on his own spit. “How do you know it wasn’t the Star Origin Lord who forced your world to fall into the void currents in the first place?”

Before the other could respond, Zhuo Gudao pressed on. “If the Star Origin Lord could summon a branch of the void currents to divert it from the Flood Star Region to the Heaven Observation Star Region, don’t you think he can easily plot against your world?”

“Absurd!” The mid-level Sage of the Essence Zhen World roared.

Zhuo Gudao said in a solemn voice, “You may not know, but I once served the Star Origin Lord. The depth of his schemes, the cruelty of his means... They make me shiver. To step into the Eighth Order, sacrificing a Sage is nothing! Even an Essence World... A Heavenly Field... Even colluding with foreign Star Fields isn't out of the question!”

“Delusional lies!” The mid-level Sage of the Essence Zhen World’s strikes grew more savage, unmoved by Zhuo Gudao’s words.

But at that moment, Shi Guan successfully dragged the world fragment out from beneath the heavenly screen and pushed it away from the battlefield.

“It is done!” He shouted, paused only for a breath, then leapt back into battle, replacing Kou Chongxue to restrain the mid-level Sage.

Freed, Kou Chongxue struck again, severing another world fragment. But this time, the fragment was smaller, and he lacked a second Origin Shattering World Talisman to seal the fracture.

“You’re going too far!” The mid-level Sage of the Essence Zhen World, nearly exploding with rage, charged like a madman, intent on perishing together with one of them.

His desperate charge forced Kou Chongxue and the others into caution.

The second fragment Kou Chongxue severed could not be dragged free immediately.

But then, another Sage of the Heaven Observation Star Field broke free, Yu Kun, a powerhouse at the third star, escaped the entanglement of a super Star Ship and rushed toward the heavenly screen.

That was the final straw for the mid-level Sage of the Essence Zhen World, whose will to resist was crushed.

Before, his suicidal stance had forced Kou Chongxue’s group to hesitate. But with four Sages standing against him, not only could they capture him alive, they might even crush him before he could sacrifice himself.

Realizing the fall was inevitable, the mid-level Sage withdrew, allowing the invaders to seize the second fragment, and retreated to guard the core of his world.

Any regions that were not critical to his cultivation and the survival of his world were left to the enemy.

Kou Chongxue and the others did not hesitate. After the second fragment was dragged out, Kou quickly severed a third.

The next second, the void in the Five Essence Heavenly Field started to ripple.

“Enough!” The Star Origin Lord’s deep voice boomed like muffled thunder in every ear.
