Splitting the Heavens

Chapter 204: The Secret Warehouse of the Heaven Swallowing Peak

…

At the foot of the once glorious Four Spiritual Peak.

The Heaven Swallowing Peak was the first to fall under Zhu Tong’s assault. As the home of the She Race, it wouldn’t take a genius to know that they suffered catastrophic damage.

When She Zhihong noticed Zhu Tong following him into the barrier earlier, he ran straight for the Heaven Swallowing Peak to take control of the protection formation there. He wanted to use it to resist the rank five undead corpse’s assault.

With Zhu Tong right behind him, She Zhihong didn’t even have enough time to prepare himself before the battle began. It didn’t take long for them to destroy the Heaven Swallowing Peak, causing the entire mountain to collapse.

The battle then spread to the Tide Peak, but due to Ran Biluo’s heavy injuries, she was unable to protect it for long.

When she was brought away by the members of the Rose Party after being injured in the Coral Forest, the members of the Ran Race whisked her off to the Tide Peak immediately. When the battle between She Zhihong, Zhu Tong, Yan Su’er and Sima Zhanxing reached the Tide Peak, she couldn’t even circulate her inner qi before she was killed.

The battle raged across the Four Spiritual Peak and after the tide peak, the battlefield shifted to the home of the Lang Race.

Luckily Lang Jingyun and Lu Zhanyi returned at that moment. With them to control the protection formation, the Four Spiritual Peak was finally able to hold Zhu Tong back.

Of course, fighting to a standstill didn’t mean that the destruction would stop. In the blink of an eye, the Whistling Moon Peak started to crumble.

When She Zhihong’s attack tore Zhu Ying’s corpse to shreds earlier - despite it being Shang Ke’s ploy - Zhu Tong had already set his eyes on the old expert. After all, Zhu Tong’s only hope of resurrection had disappeared. In order to vent all his frustration, Zhu Tong focused his attack on She Zhihong.

She Zhihong’s fate was sealed the moment his attack shattered Zhu Ying’s corpse. When he died, the protection barrier around the Four Spiritual Peak popped, leading to the scene Shang Xia saw before they started their mission to sweep up the remains on the mountain.

Once he died, the situation on the Four Spiritual Peak was revealed to both Ji Wenlong and Shang Bo who had been lying in wait outside. Even without Yan Su’er’s threat, they would have joined in the battle.

After all, the rank five undead corpse was too dangerous to be left alone. They had to deal with it immediately to prevent any unpredictable situations from rising in the future.

Now that the Four Spiritual Peak was close to being destroyed, the Tongyou Peak held the absolute advantage. Ji Wenlong and Shang Bo didn’t wish for Zhu Tong to cause any more destruction. They would be wasting precious resources otherwise.

With the rank five undead corpse on its last breath, the two of them would obviously have to make the decisive move.

Since Zhu Tong had entered the Martial Dipper Realm, he had to possess a fate dipper!

In the core region of the Zhu Family Manor, Shang Xia wasn’t the only one who went to take a look at the stone coffin. Ji Wenlong and Shang Bo naturally went to examine the stone coffin after the kid! The two of them knew exactly what type of fate dipper it was!

It was something even Kou Chongxue would have to admit is a treasure.

There was no doubt that the rank five undead corpse would die. However, the Four Spiritual Peak would fight desperately to obtain his fate dipper!

When Ji Wenlong and Shang Bo entered the battlefield to fight for Zhu Tong’s fate dipper, the disciples of the Tongyou Institution finally arrived. Under Liu Qinglan’s order, they started to form five man groups to scour the ruins. Their job was to kill any survivors and retrieve anything of value from the Four Spiritual Peak.

“See! I told you to hurry up earlier. Now that they’re here, you won’t be able to obtain much.” Shang Ke sneered at Shang Xia. He called several disciples who were either from the Shang Clan or had relations with them over and organized them himself.

Watching the excited disciples digging through the ground, Shang Xia sneered in his heart. “Hah! Old man, if you personally go dig for treasures, we’ll be able to get a lot more!”

“Damn brat! You’re getting more and more impudent! If I can personally search for treasures here, why would I be following you around?” Shang Ke snorted angrily.

Shang Xia sighed in response, “Oh. About your injuries…”

“I’m afraid I’ll have to enter seclusion for half a year after I return. My foundations were too weak when I fought with Lang Jingyun and Lu Zhanyi. I’ll try to refrain from exerting myself if possible.” Shang Ke explained.

Nodding in acknowledgment, Shang Xia continued to dig around with his Jade Creek Sword.

However, Shang Ke’s sigh came from behind him once again. “If this old man isn’t wrong, there’s a hidden warehouse where you’re digging. Too bad this old man’s spatial tool is full.”

Shang Xia felt a lightbulb lighting up in his mind. He felt that his grandfather wasn’t willing to get his hands dirty because he wouldn’t get any benefits out of it anyway!

“Even though the treasures and herbs gathered by the Four Spiritual Peak in the battlefield between two worlds would be shipped off to the Azure Spiritual World as soon as possible, they would have to store it somewhere safe. The Four Spiritual Peak would distribute the gains for each race before sending them off for safekeeping in their individual warehouses. Every race would send a convoy back from time to time, but they wouldn’t empty their warehouses completely. The treasury on the Heaven Swallowing Peak should be located right where your sword is.”

Shang Xia asked in a strange tone, “Weren’t we at the Tide Peak when we entered the Four Spiritual Peak? Why didn’t we look for their treasury?”

Pressing his lips together, Shang Ke sneered, “The Tide Peak sent off their convoy recently. There wouldn’t be much left in their treasury!”

The intelligence the Tongyou Institution had on the Four Spiritual Peak once again shocked Shang Xia.

However, it made sense after he thought about it. The Four Spiritual Peak likely knew about the Tongyou Institution’s plan as well. That was how their convoy was attacked when they just entered the battlefield between the two worlds.

As his sword casually slashed open a boulder on the ground, he accidentally activated a hidden restriction.

Rays of light shot into the skies and Shang Ke barely managed to yell a warning when his voice was drowned by the sound of an explosion.

Shang Xia waved his second sword in the air and strands of sword qi quickly surrounded him. They formed a giant net that shattered everything flying Shang Xia’s way.

“This… This can’t be called a Sword Formation anymore… It seems more like a Sword World!” Liu Qinglan gasped as she appeared beside Shang Ke. The explosion earlier sent rocks flying everywhere and those approaching Shang Xia were ground to dust by his sword qi. The other shards seemed to be controlled by a formless power that caused them to fall to the ground after traveling several feet.

“Why are you here?” Shang Ke sneered when he noticed her presence.

“The Four Races take turns to transport their supplies out of the battlefield. The state of their treasuries isn’t a secret to any of us.” Liu Qinglan smiled in response.

“I found this place with the kid…” Shang Ke snorted softly.

The smile on Liu Qinglan’s face grew wider. “Since I discovered you guys, I get half of whatever is inside!”

The two of them were about to start quarreling when Shang Xia’s voice interrupted them. “Hey! This is Ebony Lingzhi! Wow! It should be several hundred years old!”
