Chapter 703: Origin Flow!

In the Beyond Heavens Pavilion, Yun Jing started to arrange everyone’s jobs in accordance with Kou Chongxue’s instructions.

What Shang Xia discovered was that after he entered the Martial Dipper Realm, there were much fewer chances for him to personally make a move.

An expert at the Martial Dipper Realm stood at the peak of the power pyramid in a world like the Azure Origin World. They were no longer chess pieces and instead, had become the chessmasters who were in charge of moving the pieces around. They could finally control their fate.

“When the Worlds’ Will fuse into one, there will definitely be a giant wave of world origin emitted. The world origin would probably emerge in a giant tide from the various continents of both worlds, and an Origin Tide might happen in the battlefield between the two worlds. It’s the best chance for us to upgrade the Tongyou Mysterious World to the Tongyou Paradise!” Yun Jing explained the situation to the others. However, she seemed to be doing it more for Shang Xia’s benefit as the others present pretty much had a grasp on the situation already.

Shang Xia thought about it for a second and asked, “Another Origin Tide?”

“It’s going to be much stronger than last time. That is why we need a Martial Dipper Realm expert to stay in the institution and direct the upgrade.” Yun Jing explained with a smile.

Turning to Ji Wenlong, she continued, “Chief Ji, you were originally supposed to be in charge of that. Since the patriarch isn’t here, we’ll swap the role around. Little Xia, you’ll take on that role.”

Shang Xia wondered out loud, “Shouldn’t Deputy Patriarch Ji be stationed in the Tongyou Mysterious World so that we can unleash our greatest fighting strength the moment we complete the ascension?”

Ji Wenlong’s way of entering the Martial Dipper Realm was different from Kou Chongxue, Shang Bo, and Shang Xia. He borrowed the power of the Origin Tide that poured into it when it was brought back from the battlefield between the two worlds to complete his breakthrough to the Martial Dipper Realm. The way he broke through was similar to the experts of the other factions. He wouldn’t be able to leave the confines of the You Continent in the future.

Even though the restriction of that breakthrough method was great, it also meant that he could enjoy a large boost to his strength when he remained within the confines of the You Continent.

Ji Wenlong might have achieved a cultivation level of the Martial Dipper Realm, but his combat strength was considered one of the weakest among those of the same cultivation level. However, once the Tongyou Mysterious World completed its ascension to a holy land, his strength would increase greatly.

Yun Jing looked at Shang Xia and chuckled, “Didn’t you say that you broke through several days ago?! Have you managed to consolidate your foundation? Have you started working on your rank five martial art or secret art?”

“Oh…” Shang Xia didn’t know how to retort to that.

Actually, Shang Xia didn’t think that he was weak at all. However, things were exactly as Yun Jing had said. He might be able to fuse his Five Elements Origin, but he couldn’t use them in battle. It greatly affected his true combat strength.

He experienced that when he exchanged blows with Tao Gongming previously.

Yun Jing turned to look at Shang Bo and Ji Wenlong and continued, “If the Martial Dipper Realm Ancestors of the Changbai Holy Land make their move, you will have to stop them.”

Ji Wenlong muttered, “Relax. They might have been in the Martial Dipper Realm for a long time and it wouldn’t be really possible for us to defeat them, but holding them back shouldn’t be a problem.”

Yun Jing nodded before turning to Yan Su’er. “Right now, we lost a supreme expert in the Martial Extermination Realm… We can only trouble Sister Su’er to take a trip over to the battlefield between the two worlds with me.”

Obviously, she was referring to Shang Xia when she spoke about the supreme expert in the Martial Extermination Realm. Back when he was in the grand completion stage of the Martial Extermination Realm, there was truly no one who could match up to him. Of course, she wasn’t complaining or anything.

Yan Su’er chuckled in response. She twisted her staff and explained, “Since my Swallow Race has already settled down in the You Continent, I have to head back and close off the matter regardless. Even if all of you didn’t tell me to, I would have to make a trip back.”

Ji Wenlong frowned slightly in response. “Patriarch Kou isn’t able to take part in the battle and all we have to do is to ensure the Tongyou Mysterious World ascends into a holy land. We should just protect whatever territory we can in the battlefield between the two worlds. It’s fine if we retreat slightly from several other territories, it wouldn’t affect much. You don’t have to make a trip over to the battlefield between the two worlds.”

Yan Su’er replied, “No, I have to make a trip over. However, it’s not necessary for Deputy Patriarch Yun to do so. From what I know, Patriarch Kou also has arrangements for you. Why not take the chance to attempt a breakthrough to the Martial Dipper Realm?”

“That is indeed a possibility. With the situation in the battlefield between the two worlds now, we should be more than capable of controlling a part of the lands with our forces on the Observation Peak. Even though the Changbai Holy Land and other races of the Liao Continent might possess a slightly larger territory than ours, everything else is held by the high-leveled spiritual beasts. If we’re only concerned about ascending into a holy land, we should have enough control over the world origin that will emerge during the Origin Tide. There’s no need for us to take additional risks. A chance to enter the Martial Dipper Realm is hard to come by and it might not come again easily after we merge into a single world.” Shang Bo explained.

Pausing for some time, he added, “Even if the hopes of entering the Martial Dipper Realm aren’t large, reaching the grand completion stage of the Martial Extermination Realm isn’t too bad either.”

Shang Xia was helpless after hearing what was said. They were truly lacking in confidence now that Kou Chongxue wasn’t present to take charge of the situation. Otherwise, no one would suggest that Yun Jing attempted a breakthrough to the Martial Dipper Realm at that point in time. Did they really think that the Tongyou Institution had a whole bunch of rank five advancement medicine?

Yun Jing shook her hands and sighed, “There’s no need to try persuading me. I know my limits. If it’s possible to attempt a breakthrough, I won’t miss it.”

She turned much more serious the next second. “We’ll do whatever I say. We’ll continue with the plan.”

Shang Xia seemed to understand why the matters of the institution were left to Yun Jing whenever Kou Chongxue was in seclusion or when he was absent.

Back in the Celestial Remains, Kou Chongxue instructed him to relay the message for the deputy patriarchs to take charge of the situation together. However, Ji Wenlong and Shang Bo seemed to take Yun Jing’s instructions the moment she said something and they did it extremely naturally.

One had to understand that both Shang Bo and Ji Wenlong were Martial DIpper Realm Ancestors and Yun Jing was only in the large completion stage of the Martial Extermination Realm.

When Shang Xia was planning to leave, he seemed to have thought of something. “Right… What am I supposed to do in the Mysterious World? I don’t know how to upgrade the Tongyou Mysterious World into a holy land…”

Yun Jing glanced at him from the corner of her eye and muttered, “Just head back and stay there. Everything has already been arranged. When the time comes, Chu Jia will take charge of the situation. All you need to do is to follow her instructions and do what you have to as a Martial Dipper Realm Ancestor.”

Shang Xia finally knew what his job was. Yun Jing arranged for him to head back to the institution to do whatever he was told to do. He was a mere instrument for what was to come. The only problem was that he had to listen to whatever Chu Jia said…

“Wait! Deputy Patriarch Yun, can we talk about this?!”

…

The battlefield between the two worlds was created due to the collusion between the Azure Origin World and the Azure Spiritual World. Once the Worlds’ Will fused and the worlds became one, the battlefield between the two worlds would naturally cease to exist.

However, as a special region of land that connected to the World’s Will of both worlds, it would become the spot where world origin burst forth after the fusion of both worlds. When that happened, a massive Origin Tide would naturally take place.

Because of that, Yun Jing and Yan Su’er led the Martial Intent Realm disciples and Martial Extermination Realm experts of the institution to greatly expand their influence in the battlefield between the two worlds. The Changbai Holy Land and the experts of the 3 other races from the Liao Continent did the same.

The weaker disciples on both sides immediately clashed on the battlefield and the scale of their conflicts expanded so quickly that the Martial Extermination Realm experts were dragged into the battle.

In the Beyond Heavens Pavilion, the Void Abyss had nearly disappeared.

Luo Baixu and Xu Bailing of the Changbai Holy Land had already gathered in the area and they were astonished when they were met with Shang Bo and Ji Wenlong.

“Why isn’t Patriarch Kou here?!” Xu Bailing was the first to break the silence. As everyone there knew, he was pretty rash and he was an impatient man.

Ji Wenlong merely raised an eyebrow to return his question with one of his own. “Why the hell does he need to be here?”

The tone of despise in his voice couldn’t be hidden.

Xu Bailing’s reaction was just like they had expected. He roared with rage, “Ji Wenlong, are you itching to fight?!”

A cold snort left Ji Wenlong’s lips and he didn’t bother hiding the look of derision in his eyes.

Xu Bailing flew into a fit of rage and had to be quickly held back by Ancestor Luo Baixu. Luo Baixu turned to Shang Bo and asked, “Your Tongyou Mysterious World will definitely take the chance to ascend into a holy land. Is Kou Chongxue going to personally handle the situation there?”

Ancestor Luo immediately touched on the key point.

The ascension of a Mysterious World into a holy land would definitely have to be presided over by a Martial Dipper Realm expert. Moreover, of the 3 Martial Dipper Realm Ancestors known, Ji Wenlong should benefit the most from the ascension. After all, his breakthrough to the Martial Dipper Realm back then was assisted by the Tongyou Mysterious World.

Ji Wenlong’s appearance in the Beyond Heavens Pavilion was a massive flaw in the eyes of the others.

Luckily, the Tongyou Institution came up with a plan the moment Shang Xia and Shang Bo returned from the Celestial Remains.

Shang Bo chuckled softly and spoke casually, “It’s nothing especially important. Patriarch Kou just managed to get his hands on another Origin Dipper and he’s cultivating in seclusion back in the Tongyou Mysterious World.”

His words caused the pupils of the ancestors from the Changbai Holy Land to shrink violently.

If Shang Bo were to come up with any other bullshit excuse, they might not believe it at all. However, they didn’t quite doubt Kou Chongxue’s advancement.

After all, Kou Chongxue’s sudden rise to power 20 or so years ago created a giant anomaly to both the Azure Origin World and the Azure Spiritual World.

“I guess we will have to congratulate Patriarch Kou in advance then.” Luo Baixu said indifferently.

Shang Bo nodded slowly and muttered, “I’ll definitely convey the news on your behalf.”
