Cultivating Disciples to Breakthrough

Chapter 1134 At the same time...

At the same time Xuan Hao began making his way back to the Star Shattering Sect, Elder Song and Feng Chen were both looking at each other with shock. In front of them, a communication talisman could be seen on the table. ”To think Xuan Hao would actually be able to convince an expert above the Soul Ascension Realm to join the sect…” Muttering this as he picked up the communication talisman and put it away, Feng Chen still had a shocked expression on his face. Not able to believe what Xuan Hao had somehow managed to convince such a powerful expert to join the Star Shattering Sect during his time outside the sect.

”Indeed, even if we do end up potentially becoming enemies with this Blue Sea Empire that he mentioned, it should take a long time before they even think about searching through a small empire like the Sky Empire. Giving us more than enough time to grow stronger and have more people reach the Soul Ascension Realm. Potentially also giving birth to a few Earth Immortal Realm Experts of our own…” Nodding his head as he said this, Elder Song also felt happy over the fact that the Star Shattering Sect would be gaining an Expert in the Earth Immortal Realm.

Even if the other party would remain hidden while he recovered from his injuries, he would still be teaching the disciples and elders at least once a month according to what Xuan Hao had told them. Providing an opportunity for the elders and disciples to rapidly improve with the guidance of a senior in the Earth Immortal Realm.

Even if the other party would remain hidden while he recovered from his injuries, he would still be teaching the disciples and elders at least once a month according to what Xuan Hao had told them. Providing an opportunity for the elders and disciples to rapidly improve with the guidance of a senior in the Earth Immortal Realm.

After all, even if Xuan Hao had the ability to help out the disciples and elders of the sect when it came to the Domain Lord Realm, he didnʼt really have any ability to help them beyond the Domain Lord Realm, as he himself could still be considered to be in the Domain Lord Realm to some degree.

Not only that, but there was also the fact that he didnʼt spend a lot of his time teaching the rest of the sectʼs disciples and elders. Instead, using most of his time on his own disciples or trying to deepen his understanding of the different Daos that he had comprehended.

It was also with this in mind that Xuan Hao had ended up contacting Feng Chen and Elder Song about the matter and get their opinion on whether or not they should take in Pei Yang.

During this conversation, he also informed them both that his own strength had surpassed the Soul Ascension Realm and reached the Earth Immortal Realm, while also making sure they understood just how strong the Blue Sea Empire was.

In the end, even with all of this, the two of them had decided that it would be fine to take in Pei Yang. Not so much because they were confident in the Star Shattering Sect becoming powerful enough to face off against the Blue Sea Empire in a few years, but because the location of the Star Shattering Sect was far away from the Blue Sea Empire.

Even if they thought Pei Yang might try to hide somewhere to recover, they would undoubtedly think it would be somewhere in the core region of the continent where the qi between heaven and earth was denser and recovery would take a shorter time.

According to Elder Song, there was a higher chance that the Blue Sea Empire would believe Pei Yang to have hidden away somewhere in the core of the continent where the Blue Sea Empireʼs enemies were located, than find somewhere at the edges of the continent where the qi between heaven and earth was less dense to recover.

Other than all of this, there was also the Frozen Wasteland right next to the Star Shattering Sect, a place that seemed to become more and more dangerous with each passing day.

Although the Frozen Wasteland didnʼt seem to contain any demonic cultivators above the Soul Ascension Realm on the surface, it had to be known that the Frozen Wasteland was the main location on the continent for demonic cultivators to gather.

Even if there wasnʼt any information available to Elder Song and Feng Chen about the presence of demonic cultivators in the Earth Immortal Realm, it was not hard to believe that demonic cultivators that powerful existed in the depths of the Frozen Wasteland.

After all, there had to be something in the Frozen Wasteland that made the different powerful forces in the core of the continent, like the Blue Sea Empire hesitant about entering the Frozen Wasteland to get rid of the demonic cultivators.

”Haaa… I hope everything ends up going well…” Whispering this to himself as he glanced over at Elder Song who seemed lost in his own thoughts, likely trying to think of ways to best take advantage of Pei Yang who would be joining the sect soon, Feng Chen got up and left the room to inform the rest of the sectʼs important elders about Pei Yang.

Considering that he was the sect master he needed to do at least this much. Not to mention, he felt excited when thinking about the fact that Xuan Hao had reached the Earth Immortal Realm. Officially allowing the Star Shattering Sect to far surpass the Sky Empire and other surrounding empires who only had Soul Ascension Realm Experts.

At the same time, it also made him lament at how weak the Star Shattering Sect was. Even if the strength of the sect had improved a lot over the years, most of the elders were still in the Nascent Soul Realm, while most of the disciples were between the Foundation Establishment Realm and the Core Formation Realm. Far from being comparable to the Sky Empire or surrounding kingdoms in terms of Domain Lord Realm Experts and above.

In the back of his mind, Feng Chen hoped that the addition of Pei Yang would finally help the Star Shattering Sect overcome this disadvantage faster. After all, compared to Xuan Hao who mostly taught his own disciples or the younger generation of the sect, Pei Yang would also be teaching the elders of the sect.

Together with the codex on the earlier cultivation realms that Xuan Hao had given to the sect in the past, Pei Yangʼs arrival in the Star Shattering Sect would be the catalyst for many of the sectʼs Nascent Soul Realm Elders to break through to the Domain Lord Realm.

…

Shortly after the conversation between Feng Chen, Elder Song and Xuan Hao finished, Feng Chen informed the rest of the sectʼs important elders about what had happened-

”Master is coming back!?”

And as a result of this, Mui, who happened to be playing with the blue deer together with Song Jia at Shu Yaoʼs place happened to overhear the conversation between Feng Chen and Shu Yao.

”Indeed, your master said he would be heading back to the sect together with Pei Yang and shouldnʼt take more than a month before he is back. Although he did mention that he had ended up in an unknown empire bordering the Blue Sea Empire. So, it could take a bit longer depending on how far away from the Sky Empire this empire is.” Not having tried to conceal anything from Mui or Song Jia given their identities being far above that of a normal disciple, Feng Chen nodded his head in response to Muiʼs question.

”Haha! Master is finally coming back! Now I can show him just how much I improved over the past few years!” Laughing happily with an overjoyed expression on her face, Mui didnʼt waste any time as she turned around and rushed back in the direction of Xuan Haoʼs palace. Not intending to waste time playing around, as she instead began thinking about preparing for her masterʼs return.

As a result of this, her drive for cultivation that had decreased a bit over the years with her masterʼs absence, was reignited. Part of her even began thinking about trying to improve her own strength even further and possibly surpass her worst senior brother, Bai Ning, before her master returned.

After all, compared to her, although Bai Ningʼs strength did increase a lot compared to two years ago, he had focused far more of his attention towards improving his blacksmithing skills.

In the end, this resulted in Mui beginning to get close to surpassing this senior brother of hers.

However, due to him mainly caring about his blacksmithing and not so much how his cultivation compared to his fellow disciples, Bai Ning continued focusing most of his attention on blacksmithing. Having recently managed to improve his cultivation technique, the Unformed Mantra, to a level where it helped improve his cultivation more through blacksmithing than normal cultivation.

”She sure left fast…” Muttering this to himself as the they all watched Mui leave, Feng Chen just shook his head and continued talking with Shu Yao, while Song Jia resumed playing with the blue deer not too far away.
