Splitting the Heavens-Chapter 1631: Fifth Star Chart, All’s Good! Pt.6

"Return to Star Beast Nest No.1 immediately and inform Dou Zhong to notify the higher-ups of every faction in our world. Tell them to hasten the transformation of our world!” Shang Xia instructed Zhu Nang immediately.

Sensing how serious Shang Xia was, Zhu Nang responded solemnly, "I will return right away!”

Just as Zhu Nang turned to leave, Shang Xia stopped him. "Wait!"

Zhu Nang turned around, somewhat surprised.

After pondering for a moment, Shang Xia continued, "After you return, temporarily hand over command of the fleet and your men to whoever is in charge of the Star Beast Nest after Dou Zhong leaves. You should return to the Spirit Luxuriant World and help Ge Qingzhu, Dou Zhong, and the others.”

Zhu Nang revealed a joyous expression, but he still hesitated slightly. “Lord... If I do this, the members of the Essence Ming World might uncover my true identity.”

Shang Xia simply smiled in response. "Do you think if you don’t return to the Spirit Luxuriant World, they won’t be able to guess that we’re backing the fleet?”

Zhu Nang didn't know what to say for a moment.

Ignoring how shocked he was, Shang Xia retrieved a small banner from his sleeves and handed it to Zhu Nang. "Keep this with you for now. It will help weaken the suppression of the World’s Will when you enter the Spirit Luxuriant World. It will certainly be of help for whatever you are about to face next.”

The item Shang Xia handed over was the Spirit Abundance Banner, which Zhu Nang recognized. He knew it was a priceless treasure and he waved his hands hastily in an attempt to reject it. “Lord, I cannot accept this...”

Before Zhu Nang could finish, Shang Xia had already placed the Spirit Abundance Banner in his hand. He didn’t care about the fatty any longer and he turned to Yan Ming. “Have you cleared things up on your end?”

Yan Ming replied irritably, "Only the last sun is left to survey, and we don’t need too many things. I was planning to meditate for some time, but I didn’t think you would send them away so quickly.”

Shang Xia laughed helplessly, "There’s nothing I can do about it."

Having received Shang Xia’s instructions, Zhu Nang did not dare to delay and immediately started directing his Star Ship back to the Star Beast Nest.

Watching them leave, Yan Ming asked, “Are you still planning to track the Star Beast Nest?”

Shang Xia thought for a moment before making up his mind. “My External Avatar will deal with it. All he needs to do is to figure out what is happening there. Even if there’s a massive nest, they wouldn’t be able to damage a sun...”

With his External Avatar rushing into the void, Shang Xia and Yan Ming quickly continued towards the final sun in the Alkaid position.

The rest of the journey went smoothly until they reached the approximate location indicated on the Star Chart. It didn’t take them long to locate it.

"Is it another average sun?" Although Shang Xia was not well-versed in stargazing, he could roughly judge by his perception of the origin light it emitted.

However, Yan Ming did not immediately respond. Instead, she stared at the blazing orb hundreds of thousands of miles away, deep in thought.

A frown appeared on Shang Xia’s face when he saw her reaction. As worry started to sprout in his heart, he asked, “What’s the matter? Is something wrong?”

Yan Ming shook her head and did not respond immediately but instead began to reuse the various observation points set up around, re-surveying the sun in the Alkaid position.

It was then that Shang Xia realized that something might be seriously wrong.

"Yeah, I knew there was something wrong with this.” Yan Ming muttered. This time, without waiting for Shang Xia to ask, she started to explain, "The actual position of this sun differs from the Star Chart."

Shang Xia's gaze hardened, and he asked in a deep voice, "How significant is the discrepancy? Was there a problem with the initial observation, or did it happen afterward?"

If it were the former, it might be overlooked, but if it were the latter... What could possibly move an entire sun?!

Due to the extreme distance, Shang Xia was not overly strict about the Big Dipper formation as long as the shape was roughly maintained.

Since Yan Ming was aware of his reasoning but still brought up the matter of the position discrepancy, it had to be pretty serious.

However, Yan Ming’s response again surprised Shang Xia. "Although the current position of this sun deviates somewhat from the records on Star Chart, it is still within an acceptable range. The real key issue is that this sun is constantly moving."

Shang Xia was also shocked. He wasn’t expecting the sun to be moving.

He quickly looked towards the distant celestial body and observed for a long while. "I don’t see it moving...”

Yan Ming ignored him completely. She continued to use her equipment, seemingly intent on conducting a deeper observation.

With a deep frown on his face, Shang Xia asked, "What are you doing?"

Yan Ming replied, "Obviously, I’m tracking the speed and trajectory of the sun and whether it will affect your breakthrough to the Seven Star Realm in the future. RIght... I need you to judge this for yourself. I will only be responsible for surveying the trajectory of the sun.”

Shang Xia felt a sense of unease creeping into his heart, and he suddenly felt something. When he turned around, he saw a disturbance in the distant void. His External Avatar returned from the depths of the void.

“Huh? The Star Beast Nest is empty? Did someone capture living Star Beasts?” Shang Xia mumbled after receiving the memories of his External Avatar. The bad premonition he felt grew stronger.

This unease stemmed not only from the news itself, but also the chaotic aura his External Avatar felt while exploring the Star Beast Nest.

"Beast Warriors?!"

A term that had not crossed Shang Xia's mind for a long time suddenly resurfaced.

He connected the chaotic aura his External Avatar sensed to the strange species that once rampaged through the chaotic streams during his exploration of the Chaotic Sea of Stars back then.

"What Beast Warriors?" Yan Ming overheard and asked. She quickly approached Shang Xia’s External Avatar and asked, “Didn’t you go investigate the Star Beast Nest? Why is it related to Beast Warriors?”

Shang Xia briefly shared his External Avatar’s experience and she finally understood. However, she quickly followed up with another question, "So... You found the Star Beast Nest in the chaotic streams... Did you find a world as well?”

Shang Xia’s External Avatar smiled in response. “There’s only an Azure World there. It’s nothing too serious.”

Yan Ming hummed, "An Azure World in the chaotic streams is a perfect hiding spot. Do you think it’s where the Beast Warriors are hiding?”

Shang Xia’s External Avatar widened his eyes in shock and turned to his true body.

After thinking for some time, Shang Xia shook his head. “Even though we didn’t conduct a proper investigation, it’s unlikely. If the Azure World is the Beast Warriors’ base of operations, why would they clear out the Star Beast Nest? Even a rabbit knows not to feed around its burrow.”

Yan Ming thought about it and realized it made sense.

Shang Xia continued, "Right, are you already done?”

Yan Ming chuckled in response, "This sun may not be as bad as I imagined. It might be moving around in the void, but it’s not without order. After calculations, its movement trajectory also maintains a fixed period and is limited within a certain range."

As she spoke, Yan Ming handed over a simple diagram she had just drafted, marking the movement trajectory range of the sun in the Alkaid position.

Shang Xia was no stranger to diagrams like that or Star Charts. After studying it for some time, he heaved a sigh of relief. “There shouldn’t be a significant problem.”

Yan Ming's eyes lit up instantly. "So, can the fifth Star Chart be used?”

Shang Xia smiled and raised the chart in his hands. A look of satisfaction flashed in his eyes, and he declared happily, “At the very least, this is much better than the third Star Chart!”
