Splitting the Heavens-Chapter 1568: Talisman Seed - Trial

Despite all the improvements he made, creating an External Avatar who could grow stronger wasn’t that affordable for the ordinary True Immortal.

For example, Ge Qingzhu, who was currently at the level of Inner Fusion, would need at least 5 years to gather the resources required for creating the External Avatar.

That was if there was no resource that was impossible to find either.

Otherwise... It wouldn’t be strange if he needed 10 to 20 years before he could make an External Avatar.

Even after a huge effort was put into gathering all necessary spiritual materials, the True Immortal would have to craft their External Avatar personally. It could take another 3 to 5 years, assuming they were successful on the first try.

If they failed, their resources would be lost completely. There wouldn’t be a need to mention the decades of time and energy they spent.

Therefore, even though an External Avatar was something all experts would work towards, especially those Elysium True Immortals, the requirements were too harsh and 9 out of 10 of them would hesitate to proceed.

"Your method of advancing seems extremely cumbersome!" Shortly after coming out of the Elysium, Kou Chongxue came to Shang Xia. Holding the inheritance in his hand, he asked Shang Xia about it.

In front of Kou Chongxue, Shang Xia didn't feel the need to hide much.

Moreover, with Kou Chongxue close to advancing to the level of Extreme Harmonization, Shang Xia gave him the advancement formula for him to make advance preparations.

Shang Xia set aside a rank five Talisman Seal he had been nurturing with his inner qi. Seeing as it had housed a strand of his divine soul. It was ready to serve as his Spirit Calming Vessel to be thrown into a suitable world.

Only then did Shang Xia have the leisure to turn to Kou Chongxue. With a smile on his face, he asked, "Senior Kou, have you seen other rank seven advancement formulas?”

Kou Chongxue hummed in acknowledgment. "I've heard others talk about the methods to advance to the Martial Emptiness Realm when discussing advancement formulas, often mentioning great heavenly medicines. Most of it means that they need to borrow the power of the heavens and earth to complete the advancement. The so-called advancement formula to the Martial Emptiness Realm is more like a ritual than a medicine."

Shang Xia looked at the patriarch in shock and mumbled, "It seems I've missed many interesting experiences! But I vaguely recall mentioning to you before why the Chen Dynasty Emperor from the Essence Xing World hasn’t ascended...”

Kou Chongxue paused to think of what Shang Xia said previously before he sighed, "You mentioned that the Chen Dynasty Emperor's method of advancing to the Martial Emptiness Realm is different from other Sages in the Essence Xing World. It seems he wants to break free from the world's constraints?"

"Exactly!" Shang Xia laughed. "The methods of advancing to the Martial Emptiness Realm you've heard about, whether using great heavenly medicines or leveraging world origin, will inevitably involve extracting more from the world, thus deepening the entanglements with it. Everything that is borrowed must eventually be returned."

Kou Chongxue thought for a moment before speaking again, "Is it like how Elysium True Immortal cannot escape their Elysiums, so these Sages also cannot escape the constraints of their realm worlds?"

"That's about the gist of it, but as to the specifics, since I'm not a Sage myself, I can't say for sure.” Shang Xia smiled and continued, "The way the Chen Dynasty Emperor wants to ascend is to break free of the restraints of the world. In order to follow the same method, cultivators would need to deal with the burden of giving back to their world, making sure they no longer owe the world for their support. They would also have to make their World’s Will feel indebted to them, and that would also smoothen their ascension to the Martial Emptiness Realm.”

Kou Chongxue nodded thoughtfully. "Is that how you wish to enter the Martial Emptiness Realm?”

Shang Xia laughed, "Patriarch Kou, actually, you should also do the same. After all, to many, you and I are the experts pushing for the growth of our world behind the scenes. Patriarch Kou, you are even more involved in the growth of our world than me. As such, the ties between us and the Spirit Luxuriant World have pretty much been settled. If anything, the World’s Will should be grateful to us.”

After discussing matters regarding their cultivation, they finally returned to the topic of the Essence Ping World.

"The Star Origin Dao Field is moving fast. Their newly created world has already taken shape and should be moving towards the Essence Ping World as we speak.” Kou Chongxue shared a new piece of news.

Shang Xia’s eyes widened in shock. "So fast? Did the Azure Worlds already fuse? It has only been so soon... The cultivators of the Azure Star World and Azure Sea World shouldn’t have recovered yet.”

"Maybe, the high-level experts of the Azure Worlds aren’t important to the Star Origin Dao Field.” Kou Chongxue snorted at the side.

Shang Xia nodded in agreement. "That's probably true! Actually, the Star Origin Dao Field don’t seem to care too much about the newly created world. It has only been a few months when they’re pushing it through the void. I suspect those worlds might even split apart if they continue...”

Kou Chongxue mused, "Regardless, Zhou Gudao's entry will surely bring great changes to the forces outside the Essence Ping World. With a Spirit World that can barely support a Dao Field, his personal combat power will surely increase."

In the end, Shang Xia muttered in a low voice, "Whatever it is, there will be someone to stop them. We aren’t the only ones feeling the pressure anyway. The Spirit Abundance World and Spirit Mammoth World might be under greater stress.”

Although the Star Origin Dao Field started to push their newly created Spirit World to the Essence Ping World, their speed was far from a True Immortal traveling through the void. Neither Kou Chongxue, nor the high-level True Immortals of the alliance rushed to the Essence Ping World immediately.

Shang Xia took the opportunity to replenish his stash of rank six talismans.

However, because it hadn’t been long since he completed his last batch of rank six talismans, there were limited rank six talisman paper available at his disposal.

Unfortunately, at his level, ordinary rank six talismans were useless for him. Only a few, like the Myriad Tinted Cloud Talisman, Six Direction Teleportation Talisman, and the Secret Void Brilliance Talisman could be somewhat useful in combat.

The rank six talismans he was making this time wasn’t intended for combat. Instead, he wanted to create a complete set of talismans to be nurtured in the World Origin Source.

If his attempt proved successful, Shang Xia would be able to condense a Talisman Seed which was equivalent to another martial intent.

Even though it would be useless to his cultivation, it would definitely allow his already terrifying combat prowess to take another step forward.

Half a year later, the 7 True Immortals of the alliance met up once again to head to the Essence Ping World. This time, Shang Xia also went with them.
