<h4>Chapter 538: Unstoppable Process</h4>
Standing quietly on the peak of the mountain, Shang Xia stared past the denseyer of clouds and observed the situation dozens of miles away.<button ss="MuiButtonBase-root MuiTypography-root MuiTypography-inherit MuiLink-root MuiLink-underlineAlways ww-nw4feq" tabindex="0" type="button">0</button>
The flurry of snow descended as they exhibited the frightening power of his de art.<button ss="MuiButtonBase-root MuiTypography-root MuiTypography-inherit MuiLink-root MuiLink-underlineAlways ww-nw4feq" tabindex="0" type="button">0</button>
The Abyssal de might not be in his hand, but his de art seemed to be contained in every snowke that fell.<button ss="MuiButtonBase-root MuiTypography-root MuiTypography-inherit MuiLink-root MuiLink-underlineAlways ww-nw4feq" tabindex="0" type="button">0</button>
Sighing softly, the entire region seemed to be affected as the falling snow scattered in all directions. They started to fall everywhere, bringing the essence of frost to the entirend. Even so, it didn’t seem like the chill wanted to swallow everything in its path. <button ss="MuiButtonBase-root MuiTypography-root MuiTypography-inherit MuiLink-root MuiLink-underlineAlways ww-nw4feq" tabindex="0" type="button">0</button>

It might exude a somber aura, but it didn’t possess the intent to annihte everything in its way.<button ss="MuiButtonBase-root MuiTypography-root MuiTypography-inherit MuiLink-root MuiLink-underlineAlways ww-nw4feq" tabindex="0" type="button">0</button>
His previous move, Greater Snow, ended when the snowkes were summoned and fell to the ground. Now that they were flying through the air with a chilly de intent filling the world, Shang Xia chose to ssify it as another move. He gained inspiration from the 23rd sr term, and he named the move Elementary Frost!<button ss="MuiButtonBase-root MuiTypography-root MuiTypography-inherit MuiLink-root MuiLink-underlineAlways ww-nw4feq" tabindex="0" type="button">0</button>
Extending his arm out in front of him, Shang Xia understood that as long as he made a gentle swipe, he would be able to raise the power of frost to its limit instantly. He could freeze everything in his surroundings and end all life.<button ss="MuiButtonBase-root MuiTypography-root MuiTypography-inherit MuiLink-root MuiLink-underlineAlways ww-nw4feq" tabindex="0" type="button">0</button>
After unleashing Elementary Frost to shower the world with a hint of frosty intent, Shang Xia gained inspiration from thest of the 24 sr terms and immediately developed his next move, Extreme Frost!<button ss="MuiButtonBase-root MuiTypography-root MuiTypography-inherit MuiLink-root MuiLink-underlineAlways ww-nw4feq" tabindex="0" type="button">0</button>
In the end, Shang Xia decided against sending his de intent into the area around him. He slowly lowered his hand.<button ss="MuiButtonBase-root MuiTypography-root MuiTypography-inherit MuiLink-root MuiLink-underlineAlways ww-nw4feq" tabindex="0" type="button">0</button>
Turning around, he retrieved a Spirit Extermination Gourd he ced 2 months ago and shook it casually.<button ss="MuiButtonBase-root MuiTypography-root MuiTypography-inherit MuiLink-root MuiLink-underlineAlways ww-nw4feq" tabindex="0" type="button">0</button>
Hearing the sloshing within, Shang Xia could tell that there should be close to 20 strands of extermination qi contained in the gourd.<button ss="MuiButtonBase-root MuiTypography-root MuiTypography-inherit MuiLink-root MuiLink-underlineAlways ww-nw4feq" tabindex="0" type="button">0</button>
If he separated them and purified them properly, he might be able to obtain close to 10 different types of frosty extermination qi. He could easily use them to craft talismans in the future.<button ss="MuiButtonBase-root MuiTypography-root MuiTypography-inherit MuiLink-root MuiLink-underlineAlways ww-nw4feq" tabindex="0" type="button">0</button>
Most cultivators gathered extermination qi the same way as Shang Xia. After separation and purification, they would fuse strands of simr extermination qi together. After a long time and multiple fusions, they would finally obtain aplete strand of extermination origin.<button ss="MuiButtonBase-root MuiTypography-root MuiTypography-inherit MuiLink-root MuiLink-underlineAlways ww-nw4feq" tabindex="0" type="button">0</button>
That was the main method cultivators gathered extermination origins. <button ss="MuiButtonBase-root MuiTypography-root MuiTypography-inherit MuiLink-root MuiLink-underlineAlways ww-nw4feq" tabindex="0" type="button">0</button>
Shang Xia’s method of refining naturally born extermination origins was extremely rarely seen!<button ss="MuiButtonBase-root MuiTypography-root MuiTypography-inherit MuiLink-root MuiLink-underlineAlways ww-nw4feq" tabindex="0" type="button">0</button>
Speaking of the collection of extermination qi, Shang Xia couldn’t help but think back to the second transmission he received. He learned that Liu Qinn was entering seclusion to refine her third extermination origin!<button ss="MuiButtonBase-root MuiTypography-root MuiTypography-inherit MuiLink-root MuiLink-underlineAlways ww-nw4feq" tabindex="0" type="button">0</button>
If they had to talk about the extermination origin she was going to refine, a huge reason she obtained it was because of the institution’s collective efforts to gather a wind-attributed extermination origin from the extermination qi in the special valley Shang Xia discovered back in the battlefield between the two worlds. After purification, they were close to obtaining aplete extermination origin. The other strands of extermination qi were obtained from trades in the Beyond Heavens Pavilion.<button ss="MuiButtonBase-root MuiTypography-root MuiTypography-inherit MuiLink-root MuiLink-underlineAlways ww-nw4feq" tabindex="0" type="button">0</button>
…<button ss="MuiButtonBase-root MuiTypography-root MuiTypography-inherit MuiLink-root MuiLink-underlineAlways ww-nw4feq" tabindex="0" type="button">0</button>
A clear distinction had always existed among the Martial Extermination Realm experts of the institution. Thinking back to the earliest times, the gap was extremelyrge.<button ss="MuiButtonBase-root MuiTypography-root MuiTypography-inherit MuiLink-root MuiLink-underlineAlways ww-nw4feq" tabindex="0" type="button">0</button>
Taking Kou Chongxue out of the equation as he was a Martial Dipper Realm expert, the various Deputy Patriarchs were thirdyer Martial Extermination Realm experts at the very least. The rest of the Martial Extermination Realm from the Tongyou Institution were in the firstyer! <button ss="MuiButtonBase-root MuiTypography-root MuiTypography-inherit MuiLink-root MuiLink-underlineAlways ww-nw4feq" tabindex="0" type="button">0</button>
That was back when Shang Xia stepped into the battlefield between the two worlds for the first time and since then, Liu Qinn became the first to refine her second extermination origin. Bu Jingshuang, Shang Lubing, Shang Ke, and several others eventually caught up, but now that Yun Jing had entered the fourthyer of the Martial Extermination Realm, the divide grew evenrger.<button ss="MuiButtonBase-root MuiTypography-root MuiTypography-inherit MuiLink-root MuiLink-underlineAlways ww-nw4feq" tabindex="0" type="button">0</button>
There wasn’t a single thirdyer Martial Extermination Realm expert in the Tongyou Institution!<button ss="MuiButtonBase-root MuiTypography-root MuiTypography-inherit MuiLink-root MuiLink-underlineAlways ww-nw4feq" tabindex="0" type="button">0</button>
As for Shang Xia who refined 4 extermination origins simultaneously and had a weirdly powerfulbat strength, he could be taken out of the equation directly.<button ss="MuiButtonBase-root MuiTypography-root MuiTypography-inherit MuiLink-root MuiLink-underlineAlways ww-nw4feq" tabindex="0" type="button">0</button>
Stepping into the thirdyer of the Martial Extermination Realm from the second was a monumental task. It was a massive test for any cultivator trying to break through. One could even say that the moment Liu Qinn seeded, the Tongyou Institution would finally be able to im that the new generation had finally matured.<button ss="MuiButtonBase-root MuiTypography-root MuiTypography-inherit MuiLink-root MuiLink-underlineAlways ww-nw4feq" tabindex="0" type="button">0</button>
Liu Qinn’s attempt to break through was actually of supreme importance to the Tongyou Institution.<button ss="MuiButtonBase-root MuiTypography-root MuiTypography-inherit MuiLink-root MuiLink-underlineAlways ww-nw4feq" tabindex="0" type="button">0</button>
Shang Xia secretly did some calctions and felt that with Liu Qinn’s current umtions and the institution’s help, she wouldn’t face many problems when stepping into the thirdyer of the Martial Extermination Realm.<button ss="MuiButtonBase-root MuiTypography-root MuiTypography-inherit MuiLink-root MuiLink-underlineAlways ww-nw4feq" tabindex="0" type="button">0</button>
However, if she chose to break through at that moment, the Tongyou Stronghold on the Manyu Continent would lose a key expert. <button ss="MuiButtonBase-root MuiTypography-root MuiTypography-inherit MuiLink-root MuiLink-underlineAlways ww-nw4feq" tabindex="0" type="button">0</button>
The more Shang Xia thought about it, the more he realized that there was definitely a deeper reason behind Yun Jing’s actions of letting Liu Qinn make her breakthrough at that moment.<button ss="MuiButtonBase-root MuiTypography-root MuiTypography-inherit MuiLink-root MuiLink-underlineAlways ww-nw4feq" tabindex="0" type="button">0</button>
“In other words, Kou Chongxue, Ji Wenlong, and Yun Jing feel that the Manyu Continent would be pretty peaceful in theing future. At the very least, nothing huge should happen when Liu Qinn breaks through and consolidates her foundations. Also, the continent shouldn’t be in danger of destruction any time soon. <button ss="MuiButtonBase-root MuiTypography-root MuiTypography-inherit MuiLink-root MuiLink-underlineAlways ww-nw4feq" tabindex="0" type="button">0</button>
Rubbing his chin, Shang Xia looked at the mountain beneath his feet that was experiencing the different seasons endlessly and thought to himself, <i>this is a great chance for me to put everything down and cultivate in peace.</i><button ss="MuiButtonBase-root MuiTypography-root MuiTypography-inherit MuiLink-root MuiLink-underlineAlways ww-nw4feq" tabindex="0" type="button">0</button>
Keeping his Spirit Extermination Gourd, Shang Xia started to walk down the mountain. <button ss="MuiButtonBase-root MuiTypography-root MuiTypography-inherit MuiLink-root MuiLink-underlineAlways ww-nw4feq" tabindex="0" type="button">0</button>
The huge cloudyer fluctuated behind him as they gathered to form the Auspicious Cloud Cape again. The rest of the clouds that gathered there dissipated slowly.<button ss="MuiButtonBase-root MuiTypography-root MuiTypography-inherit MuiLink-root MuiLink-underlineAlways ww-nw4feq" tabindex="0" type="button">0</button>
As he made his way to the foot of the mountain, the vegetation that grew everywhere folded away from him as they created a path he could walk through.<button ss="MuiButtonBase-root MuiTypography-root MuiTypography-inherit MuiLink-root MuiLink-underlineAlways ww-nw4feq" tabindex="0" type="button">0</button>
Even though the mountain looked unaffected by Shang Xia’s Four Seasons Samsara Art, he knew that the life force contained within the mountain had been greatly exhausted after experiencing close to 60 seasonal cycles.<button ss="MuiButtonBase-root MuiTypography-root MuiTypography-inherit MuiLink-root MuiLink-underlineAlways ww-nw4feq" tabindex="0" type="button">0</button>
If he continued to train on the mountain, the entire region would be sapped of life force before long.<button ss="MuiButtonBase-root MuiTypography-root MuiTypography-inherit MuiLink-root MuiLink-underlineAlways ww-nw4feq" tabindex="0" type="button">0</button>
From a certain standpoint, the Four Seasons Samsara Art is a way to steal essence from nature. Shang Xia knew that he couldn’t go too far with it.<button ss="MuiButtonBase-root MuiTypography-root MuiTypography-inherit MuiLink-root MuiLink-underlineAlways ww-nw4feq" tabindex="0" type="button">0</button>
Beforepletely sapping the life away from a location, Shang Xia could stop and look for another ce to train. <button ss="MuiButtonBase-root MuiTypography-root MuiTypography-inherit MuiLink-root MuiLink-underlineAlways ww-nw4feq" tabindex="0" type="button">0</button>
Speaking of cultivating, in the short 2 months that he stationed himself on the mountain, Shang Xia managed to refine his Four Seasons Extermination Origins by 10 more percent even though he had to patrol the area from time to time.<button ss="MuiButtonBase-root MuiTypography-root MuiTypography-inherit MuiLink-root MuiLink-underlineAlways ww-nw4feq" tabindex="0" type="button">0</button>
He refined more than 60 percent of his extermination origins by that point and his strength experienced a huge increase.<button ss="MuiButtonBase-root MuiTypography-root MuiTypography-inherit MuiLink-root MuiLink-underlineAlways ww-nw4feq" tabindex="0" type="button">0</button>
That wasn’t all. In the time he spent there, he continued to refine and perfect his Four Seasons Samsara Art. He needed even less time toplete one cycle of inner qi cirction and it was quickly approaching the 3 hours mark.<button ss="MuiButtonBase-root MuiTypography-root MuiTypography-inherit MuiLink-root MuiLink-underlineAlways ww-nw4feq" tabindex="0" type="button">0</button>
As he tried looking for suitable locations to cultivate, he heard a dull noiseing from the ground below. Soon after, the entire region started to quake.<button ss="MuiButtonBase-root MuiTypography-root MuiTypography-inherit MuiLink-root MuiLink-underlineAlways ww-nw4feq" tabindex="0" type="button">0</button>
Turning all around him, Shang Xia noticed that the trembling had spread to countless mountain peaks and some spots had started to crumble.<button ss="MuiButtonBase-root MuiTypography-root MuiTypography-inherit MuiLink-root MuiLink-underlineAlways ww-nw4feq" tabindex="0" type="button">0</button>
Was an earthquake happening?<button ss="MuiButtonBase-root MuiTypography-root MuiTypography-inherit MuiLink-root MuiLink-underlineAlways ww-nw4feq" tabindex="0" type="button">0</button>
Pausing in mid air, Shang Xia could feel that the heaven and earth qi in his surroundings was growing denser by the second. Extermination qi had also leaked out from the ground and so did world origin. The Crimson Soul Tablet in his sea of consciousness reacted the instant it felt the increase in world origin.<button ss="MuiButtonBase-root MuiTypography-root MuiTypography-inherit MuiLink-root MuiLink-underlineAlways ww-nw4feq" tabindex="0" type="button">0</button>
Extending his divine perception to its limit, ShangXia tried to find the source those energies were pouring out from but he soon learned that it wasing from everywhere!<button ss="MuiButtonBase-root MuiTypography-root MuiTypography-inherit MuiLink-root MuiLink-underlineAlways ww-nw4feq" tabindex="0" type="button">0</button>
“Looks like this isn’t a sign of someone entering the Martial Dipper Realm. This doesn’t seem to be caused by shockwaves of a battle either. The Snowy Peaks Mountain Range is truly experiencing an earthquake!” Shang Xia muttered to himself. “That’s a pity… It’s impossible to gather all the leaking world origin… Even with the Crimson Soul Tablet, it’s not likely I would be able to absorb everything…” <button ss="MuiButtonBase-root MuiTypography-root MuiTypography-inherit MuiLink-root MuiLink-underlineAlways ww-nw4feq" tabindex="0" type="button">0</button>
Shang Xia might have been grumbling to himself, but his expression was solemn.<button ss="MuiButtonBase-root MuiTypography-root MuiTypography-inherit MuiLink-root MuiLink-underlineAlways ww-nw4feq" tabindex="0" type="button">0</button>
The Manyu Continent might not be crumbling immediately, but the earthquake he was seeing was undoubtedly a sign of things toe. He could tell that the day the Manyu Continent crumbled was marching closer and closer.<button ss="MuiButtonBase-root MuiTypography-root MuiTypography-inherit MuiLink-root MuiLink-underlineAlways ww-nw4feq" tabindex="0" type="button">0</button>
When the trembling finally stopped, the Snowy Mountain Peak was in an extremely sorry state. Luckily, the area Shang Xia had been sent to protect showed no signs of movement. <button ss="MuiButtonBase-root MuiTypography-root MuiTypography-inherit MuiLink-root MuiLink-underlineAlways ww-nw4feq" tabindex="0" type="button">0</button> n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Shang Xia’s suspicion that his grandfather wasn’t there became even deeper.<button ss="MuiButtonBase-root MuiTypography-root MuiTypography-inherit MuiLink-root MuiLink-underlineAlways ww-nw4feq" tabindex="0" type="button">0</button>
Well, therge scale destruction also affected Shang Xia’s ns for future cultivation. He wanted to find another mountain that could experience all four seasons at once, but because most of them had crumbled, it was going to be more difficult to look for a suitable location.<button ss="MuiButtonBase-root MuiTypography-root MuiTypography-inherit MuiLink-root MuiLink-underlineAlways ww-nw4feq" tabindex="0" type="button">0</button>
When he was thinking about how to find another ce to train, his train of thought was interrupted by violent energy fluctuations in the distance. A loud st tore through the air soon after.? <button ss="MuiButtonBase-root MuiTypography-root MuiTypography-inherit MuiLink-root MuiLink-underlineAlways ww-nw4feq" tabindex="0" type="button">0</button>
There was no doubt about it, there were people fighting in the distance. From the power of the shockwaves, Shang Xia could tell that the battle was happening hundreds of miles away and none of those involved were weak.<button ss="MuiButtonBase-root MuiTypography-root MuiTypography-inherit MuiLink-root MuiLink-underlineAlways ww-nw4feq" tabindex="0" type="button">0</button>
Shang Xia had half a mind to check it out, but he eventually shelved the thought. He decided to send a transmission back to the Tongyou Stronghold to ask about matters there before deciding on his next course of action.<button ss="MuiButtonBase-root MuiTypography-root MuiTypography-inherit MuiLink-root MuiLink-underlineAlways ww-nw4feq" tabindex="0" type="button">0</button>
While waiting for his reply, Shang Xia went even further out to look for a suitable cultivation spot. Unfortunately, he found nothing.<button ss="MuiButtonBase-root MuiTypography-root MuiTypography-inherit MuiLink-root MuiLink-underlineAlways ww-nw4feq" tabindex="0" type="button">0</button>
He was even starting to regret sending out the transmission too early. If he knew that it was so difficult to find a proper spot for seclusion, he would have told Yun Jing that he was going much further out.<button ss="MuiButtonBase-root MuiTypography-root MuiTypography-inherit MuiLink-root MuiLink-underlineAlways ww-nw4feq" tabindex="0" type="button">0</button>
Whatever it was, he failed to find a suitable mountain that was experiencing all the seasons at once. However, the heaven and earth qi and world origin became a lot denser after the earthquake. That itself improved the whole area for cultivation.<button ss="MuiButtonBase-root MuiTypography-root MuiTypography-inherit MuiLink-root MuiLink-underlineAlways ww-nw4feq" tabindex="0" type="button">0</button>
Helpless, Shang Xia decided to make do with a random spot. Just as he chose a site to enter seclusion, he was interrupted by a massive explosion and an intense heaven and earth qi fluctuation.<button ss="MuiButtonBase-root MuiTypography-root MuiTypography-inherit MuiLink-root MuiLink-underlineAlways ww-nw4feq" tabindex="0" type="button">0</button>
Instinctively, Shang Xia turned to look in the direction of the battle and saw a giant light pir extending to the skies.<button ss="MuiButtonBase-root MuiTypography-root MuiTypography-inherit MuiLink-root MuiLink-underlineAlways ww-nw4feq" tabindex="0" type="button">0</button>
Before he could react, a sharp thump came from the space between his eyebrows. The Crimson Soul Tablet nearly forced its way out.<button ss="MuiButtonBase-root MuiTypography-root MuiTypography-inherit MuiLink-root MuiLink-underlineAlways ww-nw4feq" tabindex="0" type="button">0</button>
<i>Was that… Was that world origin?!</i><button ss="MuiButtonBase-root MuiTypography-root MuiTypography-inherit MuiLink-root MuiLink-underlineAlways ww-nw4feq" tabindex="0" type="button">0</button>
