Chapter 1421: Purpose of an External Avatar

Kou Chongxue exclaimed in admiration, “The powerful strike that traveled across the stars might be greatly weakened, but it’s still an attack that is only slightly weaker than that of Seventh Order energy. You were able to stop it yourself and that’s a miracle in itself!”

After he spoke, Kou Chongxue felt that his praise wasn’t enough and he continued, “If not for your explanation of how you combined both your moves, I would even believe that the strike earlier was your martial intent!”

“No, no... I actually combined those moves because of a stroke of inspiration. My fifth move, Breaking World, destroyed the void around the pillar of light. However, I only managed to stop it for a second. My true intention when using Breaking World was to use the spatial fractures to redirect the power of the strike before using Heaven Liberation to scatter as much of the remaining energy to the surroundings.”

“If I had to block it head on, it wouldn’t be possible...” Shang Xia sighed.

Kou Chongxue nodded slowly while deep in thought before chuckling in amusement, “Wait. Why does it feel like you’re showing off by saying all these?”

Shang Xia laughed in response. “Patriarch Kou, it’s up to you now. You should have decided if you want us to kill Dou Jie or not. If we wait any longer, the experts of the Star Origin Dao Field will probably start to arrive!”

“Yeah, it’s time for this farce to end. Otherwise, the Star Origin Dao Field wouldn’t be the only one coming. The experts of the other Spirit Worlds would probably rush over after hearing what happened. It’s not time for us to engage in a large-scale war yet. Also, any battle we take part in shouldn’t be close to our home world.” Kou Chongxue agreed.

After he spoke, his figure disappeared in the void and only his voice remained. “You will need to continue defending against the Star Origin Dao Field while I do my thing!”

Shang Xia nodded as he stood his ground, ready for anything that might come.

A moment later, a figure slowly materialized beside him.

“Looks like the ability to create an External Avatar really works. My External Avatar can retain the strength of a high-level True Immortal and other than the fact that it won’t be able to cultivate, it will be able to restore its energy and slowly recover!” Shang Xia muttered to himself.

Glancing at his External Avatar, a strand of energy emerged and fused into him, allowing him to learn everything that happened in an instant.

When he was done, he finally spoke to his External Avatar again, “Alright, tell me what you think about the downsides...”

“My body is just far too fragile!” His External Avatar replied, “By using Three Lights Water as the foundation of the body, I might be able to possess a large reserve of inner qi and can fight for a long time, but my body is far weaker than fourth tier True Immortals. You saw what happened... Even with the protection of the Myriad Tinted Cloud Talisman, half my body was blown up! I am still not fully recovered...”

The effects of the Three Lights Water and the spiritual wine his External Avatar used were still taking effect, but it was clearly not enough.

Shang Xia thought for a second and muttered, “Well, I have to continue testing out the feasibility of creating External Avatars. Until I can find a better way, I’ll still have to use Three Lights Water. It’s just that it’s a little bit of a waste...”

Shang Xia’s External Avatar responded immediately, “You’re probably thinking of leaving behind an inheritance of creating External Avatars in the institution, right? I feel that you don’t need to worry about the price to create one. After all, how many experts in the Tongyou Institution would become high-level True Immortals? Once they do, why would they care about the price to create a mere External Avatar? They should be thinking of how to fully make use of an External Avatar instead!”

Shang Xia was taken aback by the sudden realization and he chuckled to himself the next moment, “I didn’t think of that...”

“Hehe...” Shang Xia’s External Avatar also laughed along, but he seemed to have thought of something and he turned to stare into the depths of space while frowning. “Hmm? Why isn’t there any movement from the Star Origin Dao Field? Dou Jie isn’t able to hold on for much longer, but he doesn’t look like a sacrificial piece no matter how I look at it...”

Shang Xia glanced at where Dou Jie was before mumbling, “Go stand guard in Star Beast Nest No.2. Also, think of a way to recover while you’re at it. The experts of the Star Origin Dao Field will probably make their move soon and I really wish to see how big a price they’re willing to pay to save Dou Jie!”

Shang Xia’s External Avatar looked into the distance with a profound gaze and knew that they would soon take Dou Jie down. He nodded slowly. “Alright, I’ll take my leave. However, you should remember to get them to send some precious herbs over to me. I’ll need to rest for a good period of time.”

Shang Xia snorted and impatiently waved his hand, shooing his External Avatar away. He created the External Avatar... How could he not know what was running through his mind?

Not too long after Shang Xia’s External Avatar left, a spot of light flickered in the void and Ge Qingzhu appeared beside Shagn Xia.

Seeing how Ge Qingzhu was looking at him while glancing at their surroundings, Shang Xia laughed, “He left. We need a high-level True Immortal to take care of things in Star Beast Nest No.2.”

Ge Qingzhu revealed an embarrassed smile as he spoke, “Your clone, no, External Avatar shocked many people. Your External Avatar is basically a new high-level True Immortal, completely different from the clones that can be created.”

Shang Xia coughed lightly in response, “There are also many weaknesses. Anyway, I will need to continue improving the creation of my External Avatar in order to leave behind another inheritance.”

Ge Qingzhu’s eyes lit up at that. “So, will we be able to use this technique to create our External Avatars soon?”

“Of course. After you enter the second tier and become capable of creating clones, you can try creating an External Avatar. However, you better ensure your External Avatar isn’t stronger than your true body. From what I’m seeing, creating an External Avatar will require a lot of resources. To maintain the avatar and aid in its recovery if anything happens also involves an astronomical amount of resources... If you wish to create one, you should become a high-level True Immortal before trying anything.” Shang Xia explained.

Ge Qingzhu couldn’t help but burst out laughing after hearing what Shang Xia said, “Are you hearing yourself?! If your inheritance to create an External Avatar is complete, its meaning goes far beyond creating a being with True Immortal-level strength. In fact, its strength doesn’t matter!”

Shang Xia looked at him and furrowed his brows. “Is there something I don’t know about the implication of creating External Avatars?”

Ge Qingzhu turned serious all of a sudden and nodded once. “I know that your technique of creating External Avatars involves splitting a part of your soul. For your External Avatar to be able to take charge of Star Beast Nest No.2 while you’re here means that it will be able to survive on its own, right? Would that mean that Elysium True Immortals like myself will be able to use an External Avatar to venture into the outside world?”
