Splitting the Heavens-Chapter 1595: Breeding Attempt

In the gathering of the Spirit Observation World, everyone had been playing stupid games and trying to probe each other. There was lots of political maneuvering as well, which frankly left Shang Xia feeling extremely disappointed.

Even the final plan devised to deal with the Essence Ping World and the Star Origin Lord seemed unoriginal to Shang Xia. Even before they met, even though all the different powers acted independently, the actions they took and the plans they made weren’t much different.

If there was anything worthwhile about the gathering, it would be that the various factions finally reached an agreement with each other on addressing the issue of the Essence Ping World and the Star Origin Lord together.

Well... Everyone showing up in the first place had already allowed them to reach that conclusion, so the discussion that followed didn’t really have much of an impact.

As the organizer of the gathering and the only Sage present, Zhuo Gudao managed to successfully become the leader of their alliance. Shang Xia, whom he saw as the greatest threat and challenger, actually had no interest in the title at all and mostly just acted on his own impulses throughout the meeting.

Only when everything ended did Kou Chongxue sigh to Shang Xia, “Actually, you were probably plotted against by those present.”

Seeing Shang Xia's surprised and puzzled expression, Kou Chongxue explained, "Right from the start, Zhuo Gudao suppressed Xiong Xin and Yuan Chan, the grand completion stage True Immortals, from threatening his position. The high-level True Immortals from various powers likely saw through Zhuo Gudao's intentions. Once it was decided that the factions would unite against the Star Origin Lord, Zhuo Gudao would naturally assume the role of the leader of the alliance. However, they needed someone to balance out Zhuo Gudao’s power and you stepped up to share about the situation in the Essence Ping World next. That is why so many people thanked you with such enthusiasm. Actually... There won’t be more than 3 people present in the hall who will dare to infiltrate the Essence Ping World. That doesn’t include Zhuo Gudao. He wouldn’t be able to enter anyway.”

Shang Xia laughed helplessly. "Looks like I fell for it. Haha. Why didn't you remind me when it happened?”

A smile appeared on Kou Chongxue’s face. "Well... It’s not a bad thing. At the very least, not for us.”

Shang Xia then understood that actually, Kou Chongxue and the 3 World Alliance needed him to act as their leader.

Suddenly thinking of something, Shang Xia said in a low voice, "Patriarch, Zhuo Gudao had been stirring up trouble, and about True Immortal Zuo Li..."

Kou Chongxue smiled and said, "The 3 World Alliance will not fall apart just because of a few provocative words, nor will having a common goal erase the underlying tensions between them."

Shang Xia thought about it and concluded, "That will be for the best."

"So what about you, what do you plan to do next?" Kou Chongxue looked at a somewhat surprised Shang Xia and smiled, "It looks like Zhuo Gudao will organize several offensives against the Essence Ping World, are you going to join the battle formation?"

Shang Xia hesitated. "Uh... There shouldn’t be enough time, right?"

Kou Chongxue immediately revealed a knowing smile. "Well then, since you plan to act alone, make sure to prioritize your safety."

Shang Xia nodded in response. "You should be careful too. Not just against the Star Origin Lord, but beware of Zhuo Gudao and the high-level True Immortals from the other worlds. Right now, everyone has their own schemes, especially Zhuo Gudao. I have a feeling he is still hiding something and he should still be plotting something else.”

After parting ways with Kou Chongxue, Shang Xia headed towards the edge of the void of the Spirit Abundance World.

It was where Shang Xia arrived in the void around the Spirit Abundance World, and it was a massive asteroid belt.

Currently, there were dozens of Star Ships of the Spirit Luxuriant World docked. 7 True Immortals of the Spirit Luxuriant World were present and there were hundreds of cultivators of other levels.

After leaving their world, the fleet had been traveling to the Spirit Abundance World under the guidance of a Stargazer of the Heavenly Star Palace. Shortly after the Spirit Observation World arrived in the void, the fleet followed after them and docked in the asteroid belt.

When he arrived, Shang Xia didn’t alert anyone else. He only greeted Huang Jinghan and Sun Haiwei before entering the main Star Ship where a cabin had already been prepared for him.

After activating the seals, Shang Xia took out the jade box sealed with numerous runes from his sleeve, which contained the Star Devouring Silkworm Larvae that Zhuo Gudao handed over.

Initially suspicious of Zhuo Gudao's potential traps, Kou Chongxue took it to ensure nothing would happen to Shang Xia. After checking carefully and realizing there was no danger, he handed it over.

Shang Xia planned to release the seals in the Star Ship.

When Zhuo Gudao gave the Star Devouring Silkworm Larvae to Shang Xia, he also provided the methods for breeding them.

From the introduction to cultivating the Star Devouring Silkworm, Shang Xia learned why the Star Origin Dao Field had never engaged in large-scale cultivation of the creature.

It wasn't that breeding the Star Devouring Silkworms was too difficult, but rather that the environmental conditions required were too stringent.

Simply put, the quality of the Star Devouring Silkworms varied. Those cultivated in an Azure World would be classified under Azure-level Silkworms. Those who were bred in a Spirit World would be considered Spirit-level Silkworms. Those bred and nurtured in an Essence World would immediately reach the Essence-level the second they matured.

The silk produced by different quality Star Devouring Silkworms naturally corresponded to their respective quality.

The star robes worn by the Star Origin Guards required only ordinary Azure-level Star Devouring Silk. Those that had runes on them needed to be made by Spirit-level Star Devouring Silk. As for those of the Star Origin Lord Robes... Those required Essence-level Star Devouring Silk.

With how rare they were, breeding them in Azure Worlds was a waste. Even Spirit-level Star Devouring Silkworms weren’t worth the effort. Only those bred and nurtured in Essence Worlds would be able to produce enough silk to create Star Origin Lord Robes and the most important point was also that Star Devouring Silkworms could only be properly nurtured in Essence Worlds. Those bred and nurtured in Azure Worlds or Spirit Worlds would never be able to reproduce.

This last point was the fundamental reason why the Star Origin Dao Field couldn’t cultivate Star Devouring Silkworms on a large scale.

Also... World origin was an extremely important requirement when breeding and nurturing Star Devouring Silkworms.

Regardless of which world the Star Devouring Silkworms are hatched in, their growth didn’t involve heaven and earth qi. Instead, they absorbed world origin!

That was how they got the name ‘Star Devouring’ in the first place!

Star Devouring Silkworms, in a sense, are a species rejected by the will of every world due to the strict requirements they need to grow.
