Chapter 1056: Experts of Star Origin City Arrives!

Kou Chongxue and Shang Xia even suspected that the Star Origin City was backed by a hidden world which they used solely to nurture True Immortals.

That wasn’t all. When a True Immortal was cultivating, their soul would form a connection to the world. If the True Immortals produced in Star Origin City weren\'t supported by a world… How were they able to improve?!

Kou Chongxue knew that even though his discovery failed to fully enlighten him, it gave them a peek into the truth.

“Doesn’t their method involve draining the pond to catch the fish?” Shang Xia questioned.

Kou Chongxue replied, “That’s probably it. However, they seem to have already concealed their formation there and even if that’s how they advanced, it didn’t seem to be their first time draining the ruins of the world…”

“However…” Kou Chongxue revealed an expression of admiration as he continued, “... The formation that allows them to drain the ruins of the world seems pretty amazing…”

Shang Xia was taken aback by Kou Chongxue’s excitement. However, he continued to ask, “How do you know they would be able to use the formation to allow an expert to step into the level of Dao Harmony?”

“I have my ways. Damn kid, all you need to do is to trust this granddaddy!” Kou Chongxue coughed once and an awkward expression flashed across his face.

With his gaze lingering on Kou Chongxue a second longer, Kou Chongxue was nearly unable to maintain his composure when Shang Xia finally nodded and grinned, “Alright, but what do you think you’re going to do now? The formation that can allow a third tier True Immortal to enter the fourth tier is definitely extremely special. From how they managed to discover your presence and start hunting you down… They definitely don’t want the secret of their formation to be leaked!”

Kou Chongxue sighed in response, “Not only don’t they want the secret of their formation to be leaked, they don’t even want the world to know that they possess that kind of formation.”

“Oh.” Shang Xia understood why Kou Chongxue ran back in such a sorry state. He quickly continued to push deeper into the topic, “Are you sure you didn’t reveal your identity?!”

Kou Chongxue seemed extremely disgruntled by Shang Xia’s suspicion. He growled softly, “I told you they didn’t manage to see who I was and that’s that.”

Shang Xia naturally wouldn’t mind Kou Chongxue’s tone. He thought about things seriously for a second before he asked, “What about your return to our Spirit Luxuriant World? Do you think the other True Immortals discovered your presence?”

“Do you suspect that someone from our world will reveal my tracks to Star Origin City?” Kou Chongxue glanced at Shang Xia with a suspicious look in his eyes.

Shang Xia finally snapped, “Your tracks aren’t a secret?! They don’t have a need to keep it a secret for you either! Moreover, how many True Immortals are there in our worlds? If we take away a good half of them who are Elysium True Immortals, how hard is it going to be to find a suspect among the others present?”

“Is there a need to go so far?” Kou Chongxue didn’t quite believe it was possible for them to take it so seriously, and neither did he.

Shang Xia continued in a low voice, “If they don’t, that would mean that they aren’t taking their formation as seriously…”

“I hid my aura completely when I returned… No one should have discovered my tracks when I came back…” Kou Chongxue became a little hesitant and he muttered a little uncertainty.

Seeing that Kou Chongxue was no longer as confident as before, Shang Xia sighed helplessly, “Let’s just hope so. However, you better not show yourself for some time. If anyone else asks, I’ll say that you aren’t back yet.”

Indeed. Kou Chongxue hid himself well for some time. Not even the members of the institution knew that he was back.

In order not to expose his tracks, or perhaps to hide from his old friends who might discover something after he was back, he entered the Tongyou Elysium and started to cultivate.

Unlike Shang Xia, Kou Chongxue clearly didn’t have as many reservations when cultivating in the Elysium.

Truth be told, they wouldn’t be in any danger of being assimilated into the Elysium if they cultivated for a mere 2 to 3 years. They would even be able to use the Elysium Origin Source to assist in their cultivation. Moreover, they would be able to hide their aura completely with the cover of the Elysium.

Unfortunately, in order to keep up appearances that Kou Chongxue was still missing, Shang Xia was still unable to leave the Spirit Luxuriant World. In fact, he couldn’t even leave the You Continent to avoid raising suspicion.

The Tongyou Elysium was just infiltrated and if Shang Xia left, it would be more than obvious that Kou Chongxue had returned.

Several days after Kou Chongxue returned, Chu Jia, who had been spending a lot of time in the Tianya Pavilion the past 2 years trying to restore the Five Element Ring finally returned.

Shang Xia wanted to call her over, but after thinking about it, he realized it would be best if he went to look for her himself. It would save him a lot of trouble.

“Did you manage to remake the Five Element Ring in a Formation Divine Weapon?” In a secret chamber in the inner hall of the Formation Hall, Shang Xia asked after everyone had left.

Chu Jia rolled her eyes at him and grumbled, “Making a Formation Divine Weapon isn’t that easy. I heard the news of a foreign expert infiltrating the Elysium after leaving seclusion and that is why I rushed back to take a look. Did the Elysium suffer any damage?”

Shang Xia wasn’t disappointed that she hadn’t completed the Formation Divine Weapon. He chuckled while consoling her, “Relax. Everything is fine here. The foreign True Immortal seemed to be looking for something and didn’t try destroying anything.”

“That’s great.” Chu Jia heaved a sigh of relief. However, she soon frowned and asked, “Who exactly is it? How was it possible for them to infiltrate our Elysium without anyone detecting their presence?”

Shang Xia sighed and continued half-jokingly, “As of this moment, we suspect that it’s someone from the Essence Hong World. The reason they were able to infiltrate our Tongyou Elysium was because we don’t have an Elysium True Immortal or a rank six protection formation… Right now, we’re really looking forward to the Formation Divine Weapon our amazing Formation Grandmaster Chu will make.”

How would Chu Jia fall for Shang Xia’s teasing? She wrinkled her nose and pouted, “At least you know how to talk… However, with you and Patriarch Kou personally standing guard in the Elysium… If they still managed to infiltrate the Elysium without being detected, the 2 of you should be pretty incompetent…”

“Heh, don’t tell me that. You should tell Patriarch Kou that to his face. As the patriarch, he left his responsibilities behind and went out traveling…” Shang Xia grumbled with some annoyance.

Too bad for him, Chu Jia interrupted him unceremoniously. “He’s in the wrong for leaving his responsibilities behind, but you’re the person in charge of protecting the You Continent, right?!”

“...” Shang Xia didn’t know how to respond and he could only put on the most pitiful expression he could muster.

Eventually, Shang Xia got back to business and turned serious again. “Alright, enough joking around. How long do you think it will take to complete the Formation Divine Weapon?”

“It’s hard to say…” Chu Jia sighed.

Shang Xia raised his eyebrows slightly in response. “What do you mean?”

“We need to raise another artifact spirit in the Formation Divine Weapon. It’s completely different from the time you modified the Abyssal Blade in the Five Element Ring. No one knows how long nurturing the artifact spirit will take. It might be done tomorrow, or it might take forever.” Chu Jia explained.

Shang Xia continued to ask, “Once the Formation Divine Weapon is complete, are you confident you will be able to lay down a rank six formation?”

Chu Jia thought for a second before replying, “It’s going to be difficult! The institution has no rank six formation inheritance and from all the inheritances I know, I could only gather so much information. It won’t be easy for me to come up with a rank six formation on my own.”

Shang Xia fell silent for a moment before he spoke again. “No matter what, we cannot delay the deployment of our rank six protection formation. Even if we don’t have an inheritance now, we should start to gather the resources we need.”

“Sounds good. I’ll make a list soon and the institution can start preparing everything we need.” Chu Jia nodded in agreement.

After staying in the Formation Hall for a few days, Shang Xia had to head out to welcome some guests who came from afar. He had no choice either as they came from Star Origin City.

“True Immortal Little Shang, do you remember our request back then? Are you willing to craft rank six talismans for our Starry Pavilion?” Deputy Pavilion Master Zhou Mingdao asked the moment he saw Shang Xia.
