A meteor that appeared in the Beyond Heavens Pavilion slammed heavily into them and smashed into the Nine Blossom Jade Formation Disc. Even the pavilion that acted as the gateway between the Tongyou Paradise and the Beyond Heavens Pavilion was half destroyed by the impact.

One had to know that if the pavilion was truly destroyed, the meteor would crash directly into the Tongyou Paradise. It might even cause direct damage to the world if things were to get serious.

For the meteor to slam accurately into the pavilion and thus affecting the Nine Blossom Jade Formation Disc, they had to be taking a huge risk.

It was no wonder Shang Xia cried out when he learned of what had happened.

The pavilion was no ordinary structure. It was how the institution suppressed the weakness of the world before the Tongyou Paradise took shape. It was only built after expending a lot of high-grade treasures!

There would also be experts standing guard there usually. Who would have thought that Ji Wenlong and Shang Bo would be missing that very moment? When the Martial Dipper Realm Ancestors were absent, the meteor slammed directly into the Beyond Heavens Pavilion. The impact affected the Nine Blossom Jade Formation Disc and it even managed to cut off the connection the Tongyou Paradise had with the World’s Will.

Everything seemed like a serious accident alright…

Shang Xia noticed the portion of world origin and origin essence left in the Nine Blossom Jade Formation Disc and asked, “How should we make use of them?”

“Heh, obviously, there are many ways we can make use of them. They’re extremely useful to us and even if all else fails, we can turn them into high-grade essence crystals.” Chu Jia chuckled.

Using the origin essence in the Nine Blossom Jade Formation Disc definitely had something to do with the secrets of the art of formations. Even though there was nothing Chu Jia had to hide, Shang Xia might not understand what she was talking about even if she were to mention them. As such, Shang Xia decided to leave it at that.

After everything that happened, the Tongyou Institution’s plan seemed mostly complete. In fact, they might even have exceeded what they planned to do in some aspects.

Because of their sufficient preparation and everything that happened when the Tongyou Mysterious World underwent its transformation to become the Tongyou Paradise, it was of extremely high quality. It could even be compared to several factions that had the strongest foundations in the new world.

The You Continent also managed to undergo large scale expansion. They increased their landmass to the north and east. Even though the You Continent was still the smallest continent in the new world, they received rewards from the influx of world origin from the battlefield between the two worlds and the reward from the World’s Will. Even if they couldn’t be considered a blessed land for cultivation, disciples would still benefit greatly if they trained on the You Continent.

After achieving their main goals, the Tongyou Institution pulled another massive stunt where they cut off the connection of world origin and origin essence to the World’s Will. The World Ascension wasn’t something that would happen in a day or two, and with the higher-ups of the institution feeling that the new world wouldn’t undergo a successful upgrade, they chose to keep the remaining origin essence for themselves.

With everything done, Shang Xia and the others finally had a chance to catch their breath.

“I wonder if the Spirit Abundance World will really come for us…” Shang Bo sighed.

Ji Wenlong snorted in response. “We might be able to determine that our World Ascension would be a flop, but they wouldn’t be able to tell! In their eyes, we’ll be a new Spirit World and they will definitely take the chance to stage an invasion.”

Shang Bo chuckled bitterly. “Looks like we still won’t be able to take things easily.”

“I’ll have to go around our territory and deal with the regions that we integrated into the You Continent. The connection isn’t exactly flawless because of how rushed it was. I’ll go and deal with them now that we have a little time to kill.” Ji Wenlong muttered.

Shang Bo chuckled. “I have to enter seclusion for some time. I’ll remain in the Beyond Heavens Pavilion for now and the moment the experts of the Spirit Abundance World arrive, I’ll head out there to join the battle.”

After speaking their gaze landed on Shang Xia.

His original intentions were to enter seclusion to continue working on his rank five martial arts. After thinking for some time, he spoke, “I’ll head back to the Talisman Hall for now. I heard that we used up a lot of talismans in the battlefield between the two worlds before the fusion of our worlds. Let’s see if I can cook up another batch.”

With their minds made up, the 3 Martial Dipper Realm Ancestors of the Tongyou Institution split up to deal with the matters at hand.

When Shang Xia arrived in the Talisman Hall, he caused quite a huge ruckus.

Everyone noticed him when he blocked Yuwen Changqing’s fist intent in the air above the You Continent. If they didn’t see it for themselves, none of them would think that the youngest Talisman Grandmaster of the institution would also become the youngest Martial Dipper Realm expert of the institution!

According to the concepts of cultivation, an expert in the Martial Extermination Realm was capable of establishing their own faction! They were existences who were classified as Ancestors of a sect!

Even though Shang Xia was treating everyone the same way as before when he greeted them, the respect they once had for the Martial Extermination Realm Talisman Grandmaster turned into reverence for a Martial Dipper Realm Ancestor. Everyone seemed a little uneasy around him.

Feeling helpless, he could only dismiss all of them. When everyone was gone, he instructed Fan Yuanhui and Lou Zizhang to bring over all the rank four talisman paper and a portion of rank three talisman paper before entering the room he was used to.

Not too long after returning to the Talisman Hall, Shang Quan who received news that he came back ran over hastily. He was closely followed by Ren Huan.

The reason Shang Quan was looking for Shang Xia was because of the rank three talisman seal and the moment they met, he brought out the completed Void Breaking Bamboo Talisman Seal.

“I didn’t think that it would be done so quickly…” Shang Xia glanced at it and noticed that the missing stroke was already complete. Even after careful examination, he couldn’t tell the difference between the final stroke that was complete after Shang Quan nurtured the seal and whatever he made before.

Noticing the slightly surprised expression on Shang Xia’s face, Shang Quan looked at the seal in his hand and explained, “I have no idea what happened either. I followed your instructions after you handed the seal to me and nourished it with my divine sense day and night.”

“I took part in the conflict in the battlefield between the worlds in the meantime and I heard a soft crack one day. By the time I noticed the seal again, I saw that it was complete.”

After speaking, he took out several shards that fell off from the seal after he heard the crack. “I thought that you left it behind to be complete after the nourishment of the talisman seal was complete…”

Shang Xia shook his head slightly and muttered, “Looks like I underestimated the talisman seal. Uncle Quan, keep it and continue to nourish it with your divine sense. I thought that you would be able to use it a few hundred times or so after it was complete. From the looks of it, it should be able to last even longer.”

A look of excitement appeared on Shang Quan’s face after hearing Shang Xia’s evaluation. “That would be great! Speaking of the conflict in the battlefield between the two worlds, the talisman produced with the seal seems extremely well received by the others!”

“Oh?” Shang Xia raised an eyebrow and laughed, “Oh right, I’m getting a little curious. I heard that you managed to gain a lot of credit back there. This seal produces the Void Breaking Bamboo Talisman and shouldn’t possess any combat abilities…”

Shang Quan looked extremely pleased with himself as he explained what happened in the battlefield between the two worlds.

Ren Huan, who was a Martial Extermination Realm expert, also took part in the battle. He added some of his own experiences after Shang Quan’s recount.

When they were done, Shang Quan chose to take his leave. After he was gone, Ren Huan finally couldn’t hold back any longer and he quickly reminded Shang Xia, “Brother Shang, your talisman seal developed its own spirit and it’s something that only divine weapons possess! Why didn\'t you remind your uncle to be wary of that?”

“Brother Ren, when did we start acting so formally when talking to each other?” Shang Xia glanced at him and joked.

Slightly taken aback, Ren Huan eventually chuckled in response, “I might have thought too much about the matter with the talisman seal. Brother Shang, I hope you don’t find it strange.”

Shang Xia cackled softly, “With my uncle’s careful personality, if he learned that the talisman seal he’s using is comparable to a pseudo divine artifact, he won’t be able to live his life peacefully any longer. He’ll probably be all jumpy and overcautious in everything he does. Well, the talisman seal will only respond to his divine sense anyway and no one else would be able to make use of it, not even me. He also has the protection of the Shang Clan and he shouldn’t be afraid that others might scheme against him to get their hands on it anyway.”

Nodding, Ren Huan continued, “I understand. As long as news about how he’s the only one who has the ability to use the talisman seal spreads, those who might be plotting against him would probably stop…”

“Brother Ren, did you come over to deliver good news?” Shang Xia finally changed the topic.

Retrieving 2 sealed spiritual cases, Ren Huan opened them one by one. The first contained several rank four talisman papers and the other also contained a case full of papers. However, the paper in the second case seemed to be made from leaves and there were only 5 of them in total.

Shang Xia casually glanced at the stack of rank four talisman paper before staring intently at the case with the 5 leaf-shaped talisman papers. “5 rank five talisman papers… Brother Ren, you’re amazing alright!”

Ren Huan didn’t seem too comfortable receiving Shang Xia’s praise. “You gave me 5 pieces of leaves from the Starry Tree back then. They’re of amazing quality to begin with and even without much work from me, they were turned into rank five talisman paper. ..”

“It doesn’t matter! It’s great regardless.” Shang Xia kept the cases before exchanging some pleasantries with Ren Huan.

Understanding that Shang Xia was likely really busy, Ren Huan quickly bid him farewell.

Suddenly thinking of something, Shang Xia asked, “Brother Ren, you have entered the Martial Extermination Realm for some time now… How has your refinement of your first extermination origin been?”

“It’s going pretty well. During the transformation of the Tongyou Mysterious World to the Tongyou Paradise, the heaven and earth qi became much denser. I received quite a few benefits from it too. I was able to hasten the refining of my extermination origin quite significantly. From the looks of it, I should be able to complete the process in a month. If I’m fast, I might be able to finish it in ten or so days…” Ren Huan smiled.

Shang Xia nodded and continued, “You should be able to make it then. With the successful transformation, our Tongyou Paradise should be able to produce a batch of extermination origins. Brother Ren, you should be able to get yourself a spot on the list. Why don’t you go ahead and try your luck?”

Ren Huan was surprised by Shang Xia’s revelation, and he quickly revealed a grateful expression. “Hahaha! I’m really lucky indeed. Looks like I will have to head over to the Tongyou Paradise in a little while!”

With Shang Xia’s current cultivation level and position, allocating a strand of extermination origin or two could be done with a single word.

Actually, Shang Xia was planning to make another rank three talisman seal for Ren Huan. However, he thought about it again and realized he didn’t have much time. Moreover, Ren Huan seems a little talented in the way of cultivation. Shang Xia felt that giving him the chance to improve was better. After all, cultivation was the root of everything, it was the basis of everything a cultivator could achieve.

After Ren Huan left, Shang Xia finally turned his attention to the bunch of rank four talisman papers and 5 rank five talisman papers.

He didn’t have to worry about crafting rank four talismans and wasting rank four talisman papers. Before he entered the Martial Dipper Realm, he already achieved a 60 percent success rate when crafting rank four talismans!

Now that he crossed the gateway of the Martial Dipper Realm, His abilities increased greatly. He even had the experience of crafting a rank five talisman with Kou Chongxue’s help back then! His skill in talisman crafting naturally reached a new level.

The only problem that plagued him was the type of rank five talisman he should craft with those rank five talisman papers.

He had a total of 6 rank five talisman papers at the moment and one of them was leftover when he made the Abyssal Emptiness Talisman back then.

Of the rank five talisman inheritances possessed by the institution, there were only the Abyssal Emptiness Talisman and the Substitution Talisman. In fact, it was even appropriate to say that every single one of those inheritances belonged to Shang Xia.

Logically, Shang Xia should try crafting an Abyssal Emptiness Talisman because he had the experience of successfully creating it.

If nothing went wrong, the Spirit Abundance World would definitely act to stop their Azure World’s attempt to ascend and a massive battle would happen between the high-level experts of both worlds.

The Abyssal Emptiness Talisman would assist them when they tried to escape from battles at the crucial moment, but a Substitution Talisman could be used to protect their lives when faced with a direct threat.

In the end, Shang Xia made up his mind to craft Substitution Talismans with the rank five talisman papers he had at his disposal.
