Chapter 912: The Strength of a Sixth Order Pt. Final!
After Xiong Chunyang approached the heavenly screen, his first target was none other than Kou Chongxue. He was extremely clear about the situation. Kou Chongxue would be a thorn in the Spirit Abundance World’s side as long as he lived.
As such, he chose to deal with the newly ascended Martial Void Realm expert in order to rid his world of all troubles. Once he dealt with the problem, the Spirit Abundance World would be able to complete their invasion with no problem at all!
As for the other Martial Void Realm experts... In Xiong Chunyang’s eyes, they were nothing but a bag of old bones. Even if they were the ones who put up the strongest resistance, they wouldn’t amount to much the moment he arrived.
It didn’t take long for him to arrive at the heavenly screen above the Jiao Continent. When Kou Chongxue was prepared to fight for his life, a powerful aura emerged from the Yong Continent and shocked everyone who was fighting.
Other than Kou Chongxue, the other Martial Void Realm experts of the Azure Ascension World were fighting with everything they had. They barely managed to force the situation into a stalemate with the assistance of the World’s Will and their Elysiums!
In fact, for Li Jidao and the others, the strength they could draw upon from their Elysiums provided a much greater boost.
...
No matter how intense the battle, Yang Taihe didn’t move too far away from the heavenly screen above the Yong Continent and he was afraid his connection with his Elysium would be cut off and his strength would suffer greatly.
The World’s Will assistance was also growing stronger with each passing moment, and the battle between Yang Taihe and Lu Pingyuan was getting more intense. Lu Pingyuan was attempting everything in his power to weaken the connection between his opponent and his Elysium.
During their fight, Yang Taihe would accidentally reveal his flaws which would be quickly taken advantage of. Fortunately, he managed to react in time to cover them up to prevent Lu Pingyuan from capitalizing on it.
Perhaps it was due to his fatigue from fighting such a long battle, or Xiong Chunyang’s entry to the battlefield might have something to do with it, but Yang Taihe seemed to falter slightly. He was forced back by Lu Pingyuan, but the direction at which he was retreating seemed a little off.
Lu Pingyuan didn’t seem to notice as he continued to fight with all his might. He didn’t want to give Yang Taihe a second to catch his breath.
Being driven back repeatedly, Yang Taihe maintained his unwavering attitude and he mocked, “Fellow cultivator, you have already used the same move countless times. Both of us are extremely clear about each other’s techniques, and you’re only using your deeper reserves to force this battle to continue. What’s the point of doing so much?”
“Oh. Is that what you think? Elysium Master Yang, why don’t you take a look at what’s behind you right now?” Lu Pingyuan mocked.
Lu Pingyuan might be accustomed to calling the masters of their Elysiums that way, and from how Yang Taihe entered the Martial Void Realm, he probably became one with it. As such, the naming seemed about right.
Yang Taihe remained expressionless as his divine will swept at the space behind him. He noticed his true body that was greatly distorted and looked to be sliced in half.
“You’re actually able to disrupt my divine will!” Yang Taihe’s expression changed as tried to shift his position.
Finally gaining such a great opportunity, Lu Pingyuan wouldn’t allow Yang Taihe to do as he wished. He rushed at his opponent and roared with laughter, “Haha! It’s too late for you to think of returning now! The time to sever the connection with your Elysium has come!”
After he spoke, he sent three punches at Yang Taihe in succession.
Every time his punch landed, both sides would tremble violently. After the third fist, Yang Taihe spat out a mouthful of blood. However, he quickly stabilized himself and retreated slightly. With his movement, the distance between himself and the Eternal Elysium increased.
“Hahaha! It’s time for your Azure Ascension World to fall!” Lu Pingyuan roared with laughter. He couldn’t care about the backlash he suffered from the attacks earlier and he quickly traveled through space to stand between Yang Taihe and the Eternal Elysium. With his presence, he wanted to cut off the connection Yang Taihe had with his Elysium completely!
In his head, Lu Pingyuan had already seen himself shattering a huge part of his opponent’s combat strength. When that happened, Yang Taihe would certainly suffer heavy injuries and the winds of battle would change!
What Lu Pingyuan didn’t realize was that by drawing closer to the Eternal Elysium, he placed himself closer to the heavenly screen and suffered a greater suppression by the World’s Will. In his state of excitement, he tried to interfere with the connection between Yang Taihe and the Eternal Elysium, and he felt as though Yang Taihe was growing weaker with each passing second.
Who would have thought that Yang Taihe didn’t seem shocked by the sudden turn of events. Instead, a crafty smile appeared on his face.
Fuck! It’s a trap!
A cold breeze brushed past his neck and his instincts were telling him that he was in grave danger.
Run! I have to run away right now!
Unfortunately, it was too late.
When he tried to sever Yang Taihe’s connection to the Eternal Elysium, a seemingly uncontrolled power of a Martial Void Realm expert emerged from under him. The next moment, he was swallowed by a sea of five colored lights.
The whole thing was a set up! They have another Martial Void Realm expert hiding in their world!
That was the thought that appeared in Lu Pingyuan’s mind the moment the five colored light appeared. It was also what everyone fighting above the heavenly screen thought! Of course, Kou Chongxue and those who already knew what Shang Xia was planning to do were exceptions.
Even though the experts fighting everywhere else had time to process what was happening, Lu Pingyuan didn’t have such a luxury!
As Shang Xia borrowed the power of the Stellar Cauldron and the world origin he drew from the continents, the Five Element Ring appeared to restrain Lu Pingyuan.
Knowing that nothing good would come out of being trapped, Lu Pingyuan desperately circulated his inner qi. He didn’t care what price he had to pay, but he knew he had to struggle free of the restraints!
It was too bad no matter how hard he tried and how much space shattered around him, he wasn’t able to escape immediately!
Rousing his inner qi once again, he knew that another attempt would be all he needed to escape, and he wasn’t wrong! However, Yang Taihe wouldn’t give him the chance to do so!
Reconnecting with the Eternal Elysium, Yang Taihe launched his counterattack. Like how Lu Pingyuan sent out 3 punches earlier, he released 3 palm strikes to return to favor!
When the first palm landed on Lu Pingyuan’s body, the five colored light around him shattered. The moment the second palm landed, Lu Pingyuan was no longer trapped by Shang Xia’s Five Element Dipper Qi because of how fractured space became. Lu Pingyuan was powerless in the face of the continued assault and one of his arms was shattered completely. His foundations were also affected, but that was about the extent of the injuries he sustained before circulating his inner qi once more. Without the restraint around him, he managed to resist the third palm and he was sent flying into the distance.
Spitting out mouthfuls of blood, he managed to regain his footing while tumbling about in space.
A Martial Dipper Realm expert could split off Fate Dipper Clones to take their place in death and were extremely hard to kill. By that logic, Martial Void Realm experts were even more difficult to slay!
It was a shame Yang Taihe was shackled to his Elysium and unable to leave. If he was like Kou Chongxue who could run about with his true body, he would have followed up and attacked the heavily injured Lu Pingyuan. There would be a possibility to kill him if his true body could move about as he wished.
Alas... With Yang Taihe’s true body unable to leave the Azure Ascension World, he could only watch as Lu Pingyuan made his escape.
Even so, Yang Taihe was sure that the heavily injured Lu Pingyuan would be unable to take part in the battle among Martial Void Realm experts any longer.
In other words, the number of Martial Void Realm experts they had to deal with was reduced by one!
The sudden change in situation not only shocked those from the Spirit Abundance World. The other Martial Void Realm experts from the Azure Ascension World were also surprised by the sudden shift! Of course... Kou Chongxue and Yang Taihe were the exceptions as one of them came up with the plan and the other participated in it!
Even though they were merely trying their luck, they didn’t think that Shang Xia would be able to cause such a terrifying effect the moment he took part in the battle!
When Yang Taihe sent out his palm strikes earlier, he could feel exactly how powerful Shang Xia’s control over space was. After all, it withstood 2 strikes before breaking apart! If Lu Pingyuan didn’t fight back earlier and cause large-scale disturbances, he might be restricted for a much longer time!
This youngster...
A thought flashed through Yang Taihe’s mind and he could tell that Shang Xia had already charged out from the Eternal Elysium. He didn’t hesitate to sever his connection to the Eternal Elysium and the continents he had been drawing power from as soon as he emerged.
This youngster... Is he afraid that I’ll be wary of him and kill him by trapping him in the Eternal Elysium?
Yang Taihe’s lips twitched uncontrollably and he eventually forced a smile. “Little friend, you don’t have to worry. He suffered heavy injuries from my strikes and he has already left! I can’t even feel traces of him at the moment!”
Shang Xia coughed dryly. “Junior never doubted Senior Yang’s strength. However, the situation over at Patriarch Kou’s side is a little dire... I can only trouble Ancestor Yang to help him out a little!”
Yang Taihe nodded and chuckled in response, “Of course. We have to be united against our enemies. It’s just... Cough... Cough, cough!”
Shang Xia saw Yang Taihe turning pale as the aura around him started to weaken. He couldn’t help but worry. “Senior...”
Waving his hand, Yang Taihe muttered, “It’s alright. I just suffered some minor injuries. I’ll head over right now. It’s just...”
Pausing for a second, he turned to the other direction and sighed, “Li Jidao of the Divine Capital Sect is still here and I hope you can stay for the time being to assist him if things go wrong. After all, you need to look at the bigger picture...”
Shang Xia smiled in response. “Of course. Senior Yang, please rest assured. I know what I need to do...”
