Chapter 1205: Xing Xingtian’s Revelation
However... Shang Xia’s clone seemed to be different. He didn’t conceal his cultivation that was close to reaching the second tier of the Martial Void Realm, and it refreshed everything they knew about clones.
It was no wonder everyone looked at Shang Xia’s clone strangely when he first appeared.
If Lu Wuzi hadn’t asked the question and Shang Xia didn’t see how everyone reacted when he did, he would have thought that everyone had been plotting against him...
Huh?! Is that it? Is that why they were looking at me strangely? If not for the fact that I just entered the fourth tier and didn’t wish to overdo it, I would have created a clone in the second tier...
Shang Xia thought to himself.
Also, he felt that they would go crazy if they learned that he was able to create 3 clones before becoming a high-level True Immortal.
Of course, he still had to respond to Lu Wuzi’s question and he remained expressionless and he replied, “If one’s divine soul is strong enough and you can split off a greater portion, creating a second tier clone isn’t too difficult.”
Despite their many years of experience and hundreds of years of existence, they couldn’t control their expressions after hearing what he said.
Splitting off a larger portion of one’s divine soul... Why did the idea sound so crazy?
If it was truly that easy to split off one’s divine soul, would clones that were only at the initial stage of the Martial Void Realm be what they usually created?
One had to know that the portion of divine soul that was split off was difficult to retrieve. Restoring one’s lost divine soul was an arduous task and it would be difficult to cultivate while trying to recover. That was why after hearing Shang Xia’s answer, Lu Wuzi quickly shook his head and no longer asked further. He turned to Xing Xingtian and gasped in shock, “Oh? Guards Commander Xing of the Star Origin Guards has come... Is there something you require us to do?”
Once again, another True Immortal that he never met managed to recognize him.
Xing Xingtian no longer bothered about the details and his expression returned to normal. “The reason I came was to meet True Immortal Shang and True Immortal Kou of the Tongyou Institution. Of course, I also wanted to meet the True Immortals of your Spirit Luxuriant World.”
After he spoke, he turned to Shang Xia’s clone and muttered, “True Immortal Shang, can you send your true body over? If it’s not possible, it’s also fine to send Patriarch Kou’s true body over.”
Shang Xia’s clone maintained a smile on his face while responding, “Apologies. My true body has already left the Spirit Luxuriant World and no one knows where Patriarch Kou is. However, Patriarch Kou’s clone is also in the institution and if you wish to meet him, I can call him over.”
A frown appeared on Xing Xingtian’s face as he mumbled, “Oh? Have you already left the Spirit Luxuriant World? If I may... Can I ask if your institution has already locked on to the position of the Star Beast Nest? Did your true body already head over?”
Shang Xia’s clone didn’t confirm or deny. Instead, he asked a question of his own, “True Immortal Xing, is there a reason for you to come all the way over to our Spirit Luxuriant World?”
From his response, Xing Xingtian knew that he was a step too late and he shot Shang Xia’s clone a profound gaze before muttering, “It’s nothing too important. Earlier, I gave the order for the Star Observatory in Star Origin City to interrupt the search for the Star Beast Nest, and I came here to explain the reason behind it.”
“It’s a shame I came a little too late and didn’t expect your Spirit Luxuriant World to have 2 Star Observatories. I only cared about stopping the Stargazers of the Heavenly Star Palace and not your Tongyou Institution...” Xing Xingtian glanced at Yin Jingxu who had an awkward look on his face.
If not for Yin Jingxu trying to buy time while attempting to make contact with them, he might have been able to also notice the Tongyou Institution’s attempt to locate the Star Beast Nest and stop them.
Alas... It was too late.
Shang Xia’s clone gasped in shock while addressing Xing Xingtian again, “How important can it be for True Immortal Xing to head over personally to explain why you stopped us from locating the Star Beast Nest? It has only been several years since we experienced our last Star Beast invasion and located our first Star Beast Nest. The True Immortals of the Star Origin Guards didn’t stop us back then...”
Xing Xingtian interrupted him before he could continue, “Since you managed to locate the Star Beast Nest, you should have also located several worlds along with it, right? Your Spirit Luxuriant World also managed to obtain great benefits which accelerated your growth... Am I wrong?”
Shang Xia’s clone looked at the True Immortals present before chuckling softly, “This isn’t a secret. When we brought back the continents from the world we located, we were even targeted by a malicious long-range attack that nearly took my life!”
Yang Taihe also interjected, “True Immortal Shang wasn’t lying. It was truly a dangerous situation back then. Also, those who launched the attack seemed to be extremely well-prepared... True Immortal Xing, is there a reason for you to bring that up now? Don’t tell us you were a part of those who launched the attack on us. Are you sent here on their behalf to tell us to give up on this Star Beast Nest?”
Yang Taihe clearly wanted to make use of the situation to turn the situation against Xing Xingtian. Since the interest of the Spirit Luxuriant World was at stake, everyone would have to side with Shang Xia on the matter.
Yang Taihe might have some selfish motives behind it, but no matter what, he was still protecting the bottom line of the Spirit Luxuriant World and resisting foreign interference in their actions.
Zhang Xuansheng also took a step forward to speak, “What True Immortal Yang asks is what is on our mind as well...”
With both of them speaking up, the True Immortals of the Spirit Luxuriant World also started to agree.
Feeling the increasing animosity, Xing Xingtian didn’t get angry. Instead, he spoke calmly without aggravating the situation. “Please, all of you must have been mistaken. I didn’t come here to cause trouble. Instead, I’m here to tell all of you that along with the appearance of every Star Beast Nest, a weakness will appear in the region of space the Star Origin Dao Field and all your worlds lie in. The weakness might expose all of us and cause a large-scale invasion from other stronger worlds.”
The smile on Shang Xia’s clone’s face slowly disappeared, and it was replaced by something a little more serious. “Invasion from other stronger worlds? What stronger worlds are we talking about?”
Xing Xingtian sighed softly in response, “True Immortal Shang, there’s no need to ask questions you already know the answer to. Experts like True Immortal Wen Juxiang of the Essence Hong World have always been interested in your Spirit Luxuriant World. Also, for him to disappear suddenly... Heh, there is also the Essence Ming World. Those Essence Worlds are extremely clear about the strength of our Star Origin Dao Field. There are even stronger worlds out there... The moment they discover this region of space, they will definitely launch an all-out invasion...”
After he spoke, he looked at the expressions of disbelief and continued, “I understand that all of you failed to notice any danger when you discovered your first Star Beast Nest, and managed to obtain all the treasures there easily. However, that was a mere accident. Also... How do you know if there aren’t any stronger worlds related to the world you located back then?”
Xing Xingtian knew that he wouldn’t be able to easily convince them and he added, “Don’t tell me you think you’re the only world that experienced a Star Beast Invasion or have been the only ones to look for the Star Beast Nest?”
Finally, he caught everyone’s attention with that.
“Speaking of which, I believe that all of you have noticed that even with the Spirit Abundance World’s enmity with you guys, they have not launched an all-out invasion even once, right?” Xing Xingtian sighed, “Do you know why the real high-level experts of their worlds have been holding back? After all... If they took part in any one of the great battles that happened, your Spirit Luxuriant World would have long since fallen...”
Liu Jingsheng pondered suddenly, “Perhaps the high-level True Immortals of their world are Elysium True Immortals and they can’t interfere even if they wanted to?”
Xing Xingtian burst out laughing suddenly. “The Spirit Abundance World has 9 great Elysiums and other than the Solitary Peak Heavenly Lake whose inheritance has basically been severed, you should be able to learn about any True Immortal there who aren’t high-level True Immortals. However, I believe you guys aren’t foolish enough to think that high-level True Immortals in the Spirit Abundance World will just remain in their Elysiums for hundreds of years without appearing, right?”
Even Kou Chongxue would emerge from the Tongyou Elysium from time to time, and even when Shang Xia broke through to the fourth tier of the Martial Dipper Realm, he didn’t wish to use too much energy contained in the Elysium. He also emerged right after he was done...
It was clear that unless one was an Elysium True Immortal, they wouldn’t stay in their Elysiums for too long.
