Chapter 746: Azure Ascension World?!
Because of the invasion by the Spirit Abundance World, the region of space that served as their battlefield suffered greatly due to the massive battles that happened in it.
Even though everything had drawn to a close, the region of space had been absolutely ravaged. Even Martial Dipper Realm experts couldn’t easily step foot in it due to the many areas where space had collapsed. There were chaotic flows everywhere because of the destruction layers of space faced in there.
That wasn’t all. The traces of battle between existences in the Sixth Order of the Primary Realm and it caused the damage to propagate outwards.
In order to prevent the damage from affecting the Beyond Heavens Pavilion, and to keep the treasures within the battlefield as intact as possible, the 4 Elysuims chose to join forces to seal off the entire region of space.
“More than 40 experts in the Martial Dipper Realm fell during the great war between the worlds. With the multiple Fate Dipper Clones who were sacrificed, the number of Origin Dippers that appeared in there probably surpassed the 100 mark. Unfortunately, many of them were scattered during the battle. If we count fate dipper essences alone, the number would probably run up into the thousands!”
“The experts of the Spirit Abundance World retrieved a portion when they left, and the experts of our Azure Worlds definitely retrieved more than them when leaving. However, there should be at least half of it left inside the chaotic region trapped in the glass barrier.” Kou Chongxue explained while staring at them. “With the entire place sealed off, even the existences at the Sixth Order of the Primary Realm would find it hard to extract the treasures. They can only wait for things to turn a lot more peaceful before attempting anything. Perhaps, those fate dipper essences in there would condense to form Origin Dippers by then.”
Shang Bo thought about it for a second and muttered, “Close to 100 Origin Dippers isn’t a small number at all. Looks like the 4 Elysiums sealed off the space to show that they didn’t intend to take them all for themselves...”
Kou Chongxue nodded slightly. “I received news from the Yuanchen Sect that the 4 experts at the Sixth Order of the Primary Realm came to a conclusion that every 20 years, the region of sealed space would recover slightly. Close to 3000 miles would become stable and they would withdraw the seal by 2000 miles for Martial Extermination Realm experts of the factions who took part in the battle to search the area for treasures. Every faction will have 15 chances to enter the region of sealed space in the coming 300 years before the seal will be completely lifted.”
“Doesn’t that mean that the region will become a land of inheritance for those of the later generation? I didn’t expect us to be responsible for its creation... Looks like this event will slowly be revealed to the world and those of the later generation before finally turning into a legend...” Shang Bo chuckled to himself.
In contrast, Shang Xia pressed his lips together and pouted, “We can only enter once every 20 years... Moreover, only Martial Extermination Realm experts will have a chance to do so... Wouldn’t that mean that they’re severing chances for experts at our level?”
Since Shang Xia started cultivation, less than 20 years have passed. When the region of sealed space opens 20 years later, it probably wouldn’t have anything to do with him any longer.
Kou Chongxue and Shang Bo exchanged glances and Shang Bo eventually roared with laughter, “To others, a chance to enter the Martial Dipper Realm every 20 years is extremely hard to come by! Even after entering the Martial Dipper Realm, refining a fate dipper in 20 years is pretty difficult. You’re a special case... Can you not compare yourself to others?”
Shang Xia pouted softly at the side, “I’ll take that as a compliment then...”
Kou Chongxue added, “Those who managed to survive this battle obtained many benefits. Even those who sacrificed Fate Dipper Clones would only need some time to restore their cultivation by refining new fate dippers. They wouldn’t suffer any serious loss.”
“Yeah. After all, fate dipper essences aren’t the only things that were left in there.” Shang Xia muttered reluctantly.
Chuckling in amusement, Kou Chongxue and Shang Bo no longer bothered with the sulking Shang Xia. The 3 of them returned to the Beyond Heavens Pavilion and those who survived the battle had also returned. Most of them lingered somewhere around the Beyond Heavens Pavilion and it was then when a soft sigh entered their minds.
A sense of dejection filled their hearts after they heard the sigh. Even after all the effort they put in and the sense of hope they had that they would obtain a clean victory, they were dealt a heavy blow by the Spirit Abundance World.
At the same time, they understood something. After the fusion of the Azure Worlds and all the world origin they poured into the new world, the World Ascension failed!
Even though they expected as much, they couldn’t help but feel a sense of loss. During the battle earlier, all of them didn’t have a choice as they poured their world origin reserves into the Xiangyang Holy Land. They even drew on the new world’s reserves to complete the birth of the fourth Elysium. Because of that, the hope of World Ascension had been dashed.
During the final moment when the World Ascension failed, a sense of despair filled the hearts of almost every Martial Extermination Realm expert or higher. Those who had a weaker or purer mental state couldn’t help but break out into tears.
There were even several Martial Dipper Realm experts in the Beyond Heavens Pavilion who couldn’t control their emotions. Dejected looks could be seen everywhere as a sense of guilt washed over them.
Kou Chongxue, Shang Bo, and Shang Xia felt their bodies turning slightly rigid.
Kou Chongxue sighed, “I’m afraid that from now on, all of us will have to prioritize the World Ascension from now on. Otherwise, once the backlash from the World’s Will comes, the Yuanchen Sect won’t be the only one affected. Everyone who helped them will suffer greatly.”
“That doesn’t make sense. Why would the World’s Will punish everyone? Would it rather be devoured by the Spirit Abundance World?” Shang Xia asked.
Shang Bo forced a smile and replied, “We fought the battle deep in space and the World’s Will might not have recognized that.”
“That’s a shame.” Shang Xia muttered to himself. However, he no longer asked any more questions on why the World’s Will didn’t feel threatened by the invasion.
There wasn’t a need to mention the fact that the experts of the new world weren’t confident of resisting the invasion at all. If they were to fight close to the Beyond Heavens Pavilion so that the World’s Will could sense what was going on, even if they managed to win eventually, the entire world would face large-scale destruction. The losses then would be even greater!
At least all of them had some time before the backlash of the world came. The various Holy Lands had some time to prepare and everything was as Kou Chongxue had said. They had to prioritize the World Ascension the best they could!
Only then would the Holy Lands be able to avoid the backlash from the World’s Will. In fact, they might even be able to benefit from what would happen.
“Alright, it’s time to go.” Kou Chongxue muttered. His eyes shone with a strange light and no one knew what he was thinking about.
Shang Bo and Shang Xia followed behind him as they arrived right above the Beyond Heavens Pavilion.
“Hehe.” Shang Xia couldn’t contain his laughter and said suddenly, “2 years have already passed since the fusion of our worlds and the disappearance of the spatial barriers around the battlefield between the two worlds...”
“In the future, you will understand how time flows when you’re in the Martial Dipper Realm.” Kou Chongxue smiled.
The Martial Dipper Realm experts of the various factions eventually returned to their respective territories.
The next moment, a mysterious feeling filled their minds once again. This time, their thoughts were taken over by a single word. “Ascension!”
“What does that mean? Is the World’s Will hurrying us to help with her ascension?” Shang Xia asked, bewildered.
“Nope. That’s probably the name our world has given herself. She’s probably calling herself the Azure Ascension World.” Kou Chongxue explained.
“Is that it?” Shang Xia wondered. He was more inclined to believe that the World’s Will produced the name because of her unreconciled feelings of failing to ascend to a Spirit World.
The thought barely flashed through his mind before being taken over by ideas of what he should be doing next.
