Splitting the Heavens

In order to infiltrate the Spirit Faith World, Shang Xia specially prepared two Six Harmony Teleportation Talismans for Song Zhen.

Shang Xia had previously used them to infiltrate the Essence Xing World which was guarded by 3 Sages. He didn’t run into any problems then, and there shouldn’t be a problem for Song Zhen to enter the severely weakened Spirit Faith World.

Indeed, ever since many years ago, when Kou Chongxue and Shang Xia infiltrated the Spirit Faith World and caused them to lose multiple continents and Elysiums with the help of the other worlds they once controlled, they failed to recover fully even after close to 20 years.

After stealthily infiltrating the Spirit Faith World, Song Zhen used a Concealment Talisman to hide his aura and pretend to be a Martial Dipper Realm cultivator by using an Illusion Talisman.

Although he couldn't avoid the suppression of the World’s Will like Shang Xia who had a whole bunch of secret techniques and overpowered artifacts, as long as he wasn’t extremely unlucky to run into a True Immortal, his identity wouldn’t be easily exposed.

That was also why Shang Xia gave the task to Song Zhen.

While Song Zhen began his operations within the Spirit Faith World, several True Immortals were distracted by a merchant fleet that had mistakenly wandered near them.

The fleet, led by a first tier True Immortal who seemed to be on his first voyage, had veered off course on its return journey and appeared near the Spirit Faith World.

After some investigation, they noticed that the fleet was pretty normal. They could prove that they came from the Essence Ming World and the True Immortals who had surrounded them quickly let down their guard.

Although the leader of the fleet wasn’t great at navigating through the sea of stars, he was adept at trading. After easing the tension, he quickly became friendly with them and started selling off some goods he had brought with him, even offering a discount as a gesture of apology for barging into the region of space around their world.

An ordinary merchant fleet naturally wouldn’t have items that interested True Immortals.

However… The fleet was surprisingly full of mid to high-level resources which was quite tempting for the recovering Spirit Faith World.

Years ago, Spirit Faith World was suddenly attacked by the Spirit Luxuriant World and betrayed by the Azure Intellect World and Azure Roaming World, not only was a significant portion of its world taken away, but a large number of True Immortals were killed.

In recent years, to quickly regain its defensive capabilities, the already severely depleted Spirit Faith World had to concentrate its limited resources to nurture a few True Immortals to stabilize the situation.

To avoid potential scrutiny and attacks from the Spirit Luxuriant World. They even had to move themselves through the void, which further consumed the world’s natural resources.

Subsequently, they chose to enter the banner of the Essence Ming World, integrating themselves into the Heavenly Field.

With their submission, the Spirit Faith World no longer had to worry about the attacks from the Spirit Luxuriant World. However, they also had to fulfill the obligations of providing regular tributes to the Essence Ming World.

Especially the first tribute after joining the Heavenly Field, which was symbolically significant. As such, the already strained Spirit Faith World was once again stretched thin.

Over the years, the True Immortals of Spirit Faith World realized that the Essence Ming World's collection of tribute was highly strategic, seemingly designed to consume precisely everything they produced every three years, leaving them with just enough to survive but not enough to expand or flourish.

Undoubtedly, the Essence Ming World was expanding its advantage while simultaneously limiting the development of its subordinate worlds through the tribute system.

That made the Spirit Faith World wonder if joining the Essence Ming Heavenly Field was actually the correct decision.

Unfortunately, now that things had progressed so far, the Spirit Faith World had no option but to submit. They were unable to leave the Essence Ming Heavenly Field and their recovery speed was greatly affected.

This is also why, when Zhu Nang faced several True Immortals of the Spirit Faith World and proposed to trade the goods they brought at a discount as a gesture of apology, it caught their interest.

With their keen senses, these True Immortals of the Spirit Faith World had already identified the types of goods on the merchant fleet when they stopped it. Everything they carried would be useful for the Spirit Faith World!

Even so, the True Immortals of the Spirit Faith World resorted to both coaxing and threatening, and under Zhu Nang's amazing acting skills where he reluctantly agreed, they finally decided on a 30 percent bad luck discount.

Once an agreement was reached, anyone who could pass through the heavenly screen quickly raced to trade with Zhu Nang’s merchant fleet.

Due to Zhu Nang's deliberate delays, the event lasted several days.

The True Immortals of Spirit Faith World only thought Zhu Nang was very reluctant to carry out the trade but still ensured the basic smoothness of the transactions, so they didn’t press too hard. Of course, even though they were carrying out the trade, 2 True Immortals still remained in the void to monitor everything that was happening.

While that happened, Song Zhen, who had secretly infiltrated the Spirit Faith World, met up with Shang Xia’s men.

In the Wei Continent of the Spirit Faith World, inside the Honglin Restaurant located in Tonggu City, everything looked the same as years ago. However, compared to the past, the restaurant had already become one of the main structures.

Everyone knew that the Honglin Restaurant was backed by Zhu Honglin, the current head of the prominent Chilin Sect.

Back when the Chilin Sect was still the Chilin Gang, Zhu Honglin was just a cultivator who had lucked out and managed to muck his way into entering the Martial Dipper Realm. His path was supposed to reach an end there as the Guyuan Sect stood above him. The Guyuan Sect was an Elysium-level power and they dominated the Wei Continent.

However, as the situation rapidly changed, amid invasions and betrayals by the Azure Intellect World and the Azure Roaming World, the Spirit Faith World suffered significant losses. The Guyuan Sect lost its only second tier True Immortal after the enemy took the initiative to attack them. The leaderless Guyuan Sect fell into chaos before the invaders attacked the world. With some manipulation, internal strife quickly escalated into infighting, deepening hatred and leading to the sect's rapid dissolution.

And Zhu Honglin and his Chilin Gang rose under those circumstances.

Originally, Zhu Honglin, who only had strength as a bottom feeder of the Martial Dipper Realm who no longer had a future, gained extraordinary strength.

During the desperate struggle for the Guyuan Sect’s legacy, he managed to refine his second fate dipper, further enhancing his cultivation.

As if the heavens were shining on him, Zhu Honglin made precise judgments and he didn’t just take over the Guyuan Sect’s legacy. He also managed to improve his cultivation and strengthen the Chilin Gang.

After years of accumulation, consolidation, and growth, the Chilin Gang renamed themselves as the Chilin Sect and the once-ridiculed gang leader stood as one of the strongest experts in the Wei Continent as a fourth element Martial Dipper Realm expert.

His Chilin Sect was flourishing with talent. There were at least 5 Martial Dipper Realm experts among them. Tonggu City was where they formed their base of operations and a third of the continent fell under their command.

Under such circumstances, Song Zhen met Zhu Honglin at the Honglin Restaurant, based on a prior arrangement made by Shang Xia.
