Splitting the Heavens-Chapter 1723: Collusion, Counterattack!

In the ruins of the Spirit Lyric World, 2 existences at the Seventh Order appeared. It was as though they would take advantage of the situation where Shang Xia’s Origin Star Avatar and Sage Yan Yu were exhausted to reap all the benefits.

By then, both the fleeing Origin Star Avatar, looking on the verge of collapse, and Yan Yu's equally depleted figure were clearly no match for the fresh Seventh Order existences after days of fierce fighting.

Setting aside the fact that a ruined world like the Spirit Lyric World could attract 4 Sages, the sudden appearance of 2 fresh Seventh Order existences was quite shocking.

The first had hidden in the core of the world ruins, staying concealed for so long.

The thought that various powers had been exploring these ruins for so long, only to be under the watch of a Seventh Order existence who could have decided their fate in an instant, sent shivers down their spine.

More importantly, what kind of Seventh Order entity would hide in the ruins of a world? What was their purpose?

After the existence at the edge of the ruins appeared, he immediately formed a pincer attack on Shang Xia’s Origin Star Avatar and Yan Yu who was using his descendant’s body. The coordinated strike made it clear that both Seventh Order existences had already decided to cooperate before they took action.

The Seventh Order existence who appeared at the edge of the ruins was none other than Guan Ziqing of the Spirit Tip World. Everyone present easily recognized him.

The sixth tier True Immortal, who could draw on the power of his world to contend with Sages, used his lifespan in exchange. He had a lofty reputation in his world for his willingness to sacrifice himself to protect them and his appearance shocked everyone.

No one had expected him to project Seventh Order power from his world from such a distance.

Even Yan Yu was shocked that Guan Ziqing could wield and project Seventh Order power into the ruins. That would mean that Guan Ziqing would be able to project his power to the Essence Du World as well. In their conflict that lasted several decades, Guan Ziqing seemed barely able to stop him...

There was no doubt about it. Guan Ziqing had been hiding his true strength.

For the first time, Yan Yu was starting to doubt the abilities of the Spirit Tip World and Guan Ziqing.

Of course... The doubt was but a fleeting thought.

Even if Guan Ziqing had hidden his abilities deeply, the fact that he had not truly broken through to the Martial Emptiness Realm was indisputable.

The situation might be the perfect opportunity to expose and disrupt Guan Ziqing's true capabilities once and for all.

After Shang Xia’s Origin Star Avatar cast his suspicions on Guan Ziqing, both he and Yan Yu came up with a massive scheme. They reached a common understanding and started to cooperate.

The grand spectacle they subsequently staged in the world ruins was a calculated ploy by both, aiming to draw out those people hiding behind the scenes.

Indeed, their suspicions were confirmed the second Guan Ziqing’s aura was felt. Moreover, Guan Ziqing had no idea he had been played by them both.

What they hadn't expected was that besides Guan Ziqing, there was another Seventh Order existence involved.

Whatever it was, there was no turning back.

Yan Yu turned to confront Guan Ziqing as his previously weakened appearance returned to normal. His earlier display of exhaustion was nowhere to be seen.

Shang Xia’s Origin Star Avatar also faced off against the mysterious Seventh Order existence who emerged from the core region of the ruins. His originally ethereal form solidified as the runes on his robe activated. His weakened aura strengthened rapidly with the projection of the Void Lotus in his chest fading.

They clashed instantly. The confrontation of the 4 Seventh Order existences caused a terrifying ripple that nearly swallowed the Spirit Lyric World’s ruins. The forces of the Spirit Tip World and Essence Du World, who initially fled to the edge of the ruins ran even further.

Nevertheless, those who hadn’t reached the Martial Void Realm sustained injuries of varying degrees. Only several who had life-protecting artifacts or Star Ships managed to avoid the initial impact.

On the Star Ship of the Tongyou Institution, Song Zhen and Chu Jia also started to navigate further away. The other True Immortals performed their duties. Despite the violent spatial currents that slammed into them, the ship and everyone on board remained perfectly intact.

Hai Yuanyuan immediately called out to everyone, "What's the situation there? Can anyone still see them?"

Her gaze shifted among Song Zhen, Xin Li, and Chu Jia, hoping to learn more from them.

To her disappointment, they could only offer wry smiles in response.

The chaos stirred by the clash of the 4 Seventh Order existences was beyond their ability to perceive.

"This world ruins is finished. With a battle of this scale happening, everything here will turn to dust. We have no reason to stay here any longer. Let's withdraw!" Zhu Nang declared suddenly, drawing an angry look from Hai Yuanyuan.

However, Youshang agreed. "He's right. Regardless of the outcome of the battle, it's not suitable for us to stay here any longer. Let's head back. While the Spirit Tip World’s stance is still unclear and Guan Ziqing is preoccupied, it's crucial for us to quickly pass through the void to return to the Heaven Observation Field. If we stay here, we will just be holding him back.”

...

When the various forces at the edge of the ruins started to withdraw after realizing there was no point in staying, Shang Xia’s Origin Star Avatar ran into trouble when confronting the mysterious Seventh Order existence in the center of the ruins.

The mysterious expert launched an all-out attack without any attempt at communication. He went all out at the very start.

Shang Xia’s Origin Star Avatar was cautious, but he quickly found himself overwhelmed and suppressed throughout the encounter. He was completely suppressed.

This time, he was really beaten up badly...
