Chapter 963: Getting to the Point

The Spirit Threading Cliff was located outside the heavenly screen of the Spirit Abundance World and it functions as an outpost. It was made up of a landmass that broke off somewhere, but it was an extremely key part of the Spirit Abundance World’s defenses.

That was the destination of the Star Ship Shang Xia and Huang Yu was on. Due to the expedition the Spirit Abundance World was about to go on against the Azure Oddity World, and the Spirit Threading Cliff was swarmed with medium to large-sized Star Ships.

When they disembarked, Huang Yu already seemed to have become extremely close with Tang Fengxiang of the Heaven Embroidery Palace. They even exchanged ways to contact each other and set a time to meet before bidding each other farewell.

“Do you really believe that he will be able to get you a spot in a squad to attack the Azure Oddity World?” Shang Xia couldn’t help but ask. He didn’t know what Huang Yu’s plan was, but he felt that both of them were acting too fake around each other earlier.

Huang Yu looked at Tang Fengxiang’s departing figure and muttered without looking back at Shang Xia, “Obviously I know that he’s trying to gather cannon fodder for the Heaven Embroidery Palace. However, don’t you think this is a great opportunity for us to head over to the Azure Oddity World?”

Shang Xia shook his head in response. “This clashes with our timeline. The most important task at hand is the matter with the Solitary Peak Heavenly Lake. We don’t know how long it will take, and the Spirit Abundance World’s expedition against the Azure Oddity World will probably already be in the works by the time we’re done with our task!”

“Right, listen. You’re supposed to be a helper I managed to find in the Star Origin City. No matter how much Lou Yi trusts me, he won’t allow me to take part in the operation regarding the Solitary Peak Heavenly Lake since we might be in cahoots. Your mission is to infiltrate the Solitary Peak Heavenly Lake, but mine might not be. As such, I will be free to do whatever I want!”

Shang Xia frowned and wanted to speak, but Huang Yu stretched his hand to stop him. Huang Yu continued, “Even if the Azure Oddity World is a mere Azure World and is going to face the attack of multiple factions... Even if a large portion of their experts will be slain during the invasion... The Azure Oddity World won’t be split up by the various portions so quickly. Experts of the Spirit Abundance World will definitely be sent there in batches. There might be 2, 3, or even more batches of experts sent over. Moreover, with many worlds trying to split up the fat sheep that is the Azure Oddity World, there would most likely be lots of small skirmishes or even robberies between the experts of various worlds. There is no way the entire matter will end quickly.”

“What if...” Shang Xia muttered.

With an indifferent look on his face, Huang Yu interrupted Shang Xia before he could say anything else. “If we don’t make it in time, it doesn’t matter. We’re not from the Spirit Abundance World anyway. Do you think I need to keep my promise to Tang Fengxiang?”

Shang Xia was completely speechless after hearing what Huang Yu said.

They didn’t stay still during their conversation and they quickly arrived at the edge of the Spirit Threading Cliff. Huang Yu pointed at a majestic spatial barrier in the void and muttered, “Take a look. That’s the world barrier, better described as the heavenly screen of the Spirit Abundance World. We need to pass through his barrier to enter the world...”

Shang Xia looked in the direction Huang Yu was pointing and even though he prepared himself mentally, he couldn’t help but feel his heart pounding when he saw the heavenly screen of the Spirit Abundance World.

From the size of the world alone, the Spirit Abundance World was far larger than the Spirit Luxuriant World. The heavenly screen also seemed a lot more powerful. Not to mention the fact that there were flashes of intense light around the heavenly screen from time to time. It was obvious that the Spirit Abundance World managed to fuse some sort of formation into their heavenly screen... Huang Yu, who seemed to be extremely confident the whole time they were making their way over, finally faltered slightly. “As you can see, the heavenly screen of the Spirit Abundance World isn’t the same as those of other worlds. It’s not just a simple barrier either. Is your Teleportation Talisman really as special as you say? Can it allow you to enter the Spirit Abundance World without detection?”

Shang Xia narrowed his eyes slightly, but he muttered resolutely, “Well, I don’t know if we can enter the Spirit Abundance World from the outside, but I’m absolutely certain we will be able to leave the confines of the heavenly screen if used from the inside.”

Shang Xia wasn’t exaggerating at all. He referenced the semi-destroyed rank six talisman when creating his rank five Teleportation Talisman and he tested it personally. It couldn’t be stopped by any sort of spatial ripples or any sort of formations.

The only consideration was the fact that even with someone who can control space to a large extent, Shang Xia would only be able to determine the general direction he would travel in when he used the talisman. Since it was his first time at the Spirit Abundance World, he wasn’t 100 percent certain he would be able to pass through the heavenly screen from the outside. As for leaving... He was sure nothing would be able to stop him.

Despite his confidence, Huang Yu chuckled in amusement, “Are you really nervous right now?”

Shang Xia didn’t deny anything. Instead, he growled in a low voice, “There’s a hostile intent... The World’s Will of the Spirit Abundance World is directing its hostility at me!”

Huang Yu wasn’t surprised at that. “It’s probably because you participated in killing Dugu Yuanshan.”

Seeing how Shang Xia turned to look at him, Huang Yu continued, “Anyway, a Spirit World is able to support Martial Void Realm experts, but that doesn’t mean that they can support an unlimited number of them. As such, every Martial Void Realm True Immortal who appears would be recognized by the world itself. They would receive a powerful Origin Imprint from the world! Dugu Yuanshan was one of the most famous True Immortals in the Spirit Abundance World. Since you took part in killing him, the Origin Imprint of the Spirit Abundance World would take you as an enemy. It would naturally treat you with repulsion.”

Shang Xia sucked in a long breath and mumbled, “I expected the rejection of the world to be strong, but not this strong. If not for the fact that I have exceptional control over my fate dippers, I might not have been able to keep my aura concealed earlier.”

Huang Yu smiled in response. Obviously, he was able to see how well Shang Xia controlled his aura. Not once had he seen Shang Xia losing control of his energy.

“Alright, let’s go, I’ll bring you to see Lou Yi. If you manage to catch his eye, we won’t have to be illegal immigrants.” Both of them turned into streaks of light that closed in on the heavenly screen.

The distance of thousands of miles wouldn’t take them much time to cross. As they approached the heavenly screen, experts who were in charge of protecting the heavenly screen were alerted.

Noticing a squad of experts rushing at them aggressively, Shang Xia and Huang Yu stopped moving to prevent a huge misunderstanding.

While waiting for the squad to arrive, Huang Yu chuckled and introduced, “The Spirit Abundance World is split into the Northern, Southern, Eastern, Western, and Central Regions. There are a total of 23 Continents that make them up, and we’re above the Western Region at the moment. Of the nine great powers in the Spirit Abundance World, the Emptiness Drifting Mountain is located in the west. The Spirit Infusion Sword Sect is also here, and both of them own 2 of the 4 Continents in the Western Region.”

When he concluded his explanation, the squad in charge of protecting the heavenly screen above the Western Region arrived.

“Who are you?!” The captain of their squad was an expert at the third element of the Martial Dipper Realm and his squad was made up of a bunch of Martial Extermination Realm and Martial Dipper Realm experts.

Huang Yu calmly retrieved his token from his sleeves and the smile on his face turned into one of indifference. Even the way he spoke changed as there was a trace of arrogance in his voice when he spoke to those who approached. “I am Huang Yu of the Emptiness Drifting Mountain and I’m carrying out a task for Young Immortal Lou Yi.”

The captain’s gaze changed instantly. His solemn expression turned into one of smiles as he chuckled, “Ah... So it’s our comrade from the Emptiness Drifting Mountain! You’re even Young Immortal Lou Yi’s subordinate! My apologies for being rude. I am Gan Jingting and I hope you can forgive me.”

“It’s fine. Brother Gan has a job to do and we should cooperate whenever possible.” Huang Yu chuckled.

Giving Huang Yu a thumbs up, Gan Jingting muttered, “Brother Huang truly deserves your reputation as Young Immortal Lou Yi’s subordinate! You truly act according to the bigger picture. However... Your friend looks unfamiliar. He doesn't seem to belong to our world, right?”

His subordinates who relaxed a little when they realized that one of the people they were dealing with was from the Emptiness Drifting Mountain tensed up again.

Shang Xia merely laughed at the side and he didn’t reveal the slightest trace of wariness at Gan Jingting’s revelation of his background.

Huang Yu also chuckled softly, “Brother Gan, you really have a discerning eye. It’s no wonder you were entrusted with the security of the heavenly screen. You’re right. He isn’t someone from our world. He’s someone Young Master Lou Yi got me to hire from Star Origin City.”

“Oh?” Gan Jingting stared at Shang Xia curiously. He waved his hands causally and muttered, “Since Young Master Lou Yi was the one who invited him, and Brother Huang is here as a guarantee, nothing can go wrong. Please, go ahead!”

“Many thanks, Brother Gan and fellow cultivators! I’ve troubled you today. Here are some essence crystals to show my sincerity. Please accept them and have some tea on me.” Huang Yu waved his sleeves before handing over a bunch of essence crystals.

“Brother Huang, you’re too kind!”

“Don’t worry about it! Brother Gan, you can’t reject them!” Huang Yu smiled.

“...”

After watching Huang Yu and the other expert leave, one of the subordinates behind Gan Jingting whispered, “Captain Gan, according to the rules, we have to investigate the background of every foreign expert who enters our world.”

With a smile that didn’t really seem like a smile on his face, Gan Jingting turned to look at him. His tone was gentle and warm as he muttered, “Are you new here? Is this your first time taking up the task of guarding the heavenly screen? Do you dare to stop someone Young Master Lou Yi invited?”

The subordinate shuttered slightly, but he didn’t dare to say another word.

Huang Yu and Shang Xia quickly approached the heavenly screen and arrived in the territory of the Emptiness Drifting Mountain. They met Lou Yi who came to meet them outside the heavenly screen after hearing the news.

“Is he the person you were talking about?” Lou Yi glanced at Shang Xia before turning to stare at Huang Yu.

A strange light flashed in Huang Yu’s eyes, but he replied unhurriedly, “Young Master, this is Shang Jianqi, my good friend who has been cultivating in the Star Origin City! He ran into an opportunity when exploring the wilderness in the Land of Star Origin and learned how to get rid of restrictions and formations easily.”

Hearing Huang Yu’s introduction, Lou Yi seemed to stare at Shang Xia a little more seriously. After some time, he got straight to the point and asked, “Can you break the grand formation of an Elysium?”
