Cultivating Disciples to Breakthrough

Standing mid-air above the mountain range, Xuan Hao looked out at the area surrounding the mountain range as he reigned in his aura completely. Making him look like an ordinary person who had not even taken their first step on the path of cultivation yet.

This looked extremely out of place given the fact that he was floating by himself mid-air without any form of artifact to hold him up.

Even a random Qi Condensation cultivator would easily be able to tell that he was deliberately hiding his cultivation realm and aura.

”Hah… I never expected for my breakthrough to cause such a large commotion. Looks like hiding the fact that I broke through to the Domain Lord Realm for long will be impossible…”

Looking down at the nearby mountains that had been completely ravaged by his pseudo sword domain going out of control earlier, Xuan Hao could not help by smile wryly to himself.

Other than that, Xuan Hao had spread out his divine sense to scan his surroundings and quickly found a small town located a dozen miles away from him on the other side of the mountain range leading away from the Flying Sword Sect.

From such a close distance, Xuan Hao was almost certain that the people in the town had seen the scene of his pseudo sword domain destroying a large part of the mountain range located close by…

Soon, tales of what they had seen would begin to spread across the Heavenly Sky Kingdom…

”No use hiding it anyway… For now, I should go back and inform the others about it, though I doubt that they didn’t sense the commotion happening so close to the sect…”

Shaking his head when he thought about this, Xuan Hao quickly flew back towards the Flying Sword Sect by himself without the use of his sword.

The feeling of flying by himself was truly one of a kind.

In the future, he hoped that his three disciples and the rest of the Flying Sword Sect would be able to try something so wonderful and fun as well.

…

”Hm?”

On his way back towards the sect, Xuan Hao suddenly froze in place as he turned to look towards a small forest located around 50 miles away from the Flying Sword Sect.

The reason why he came to a stop, was due to the fact that his divine sense barely managed to pick up? a small group of people sneaking around inside of the forest as they tried their best to conceal their auras, but this was far from enough to hide from him.

On the other hand, Xuan Hao felt a bit surprised that he only barely managed to find them after having reached the Domain Lord Realm! Back when he was still in the Nascent Soul Realm, he had passed through this same area on the way over towards the mountain range where he made his breakthrough to the Domain Lord Realm…

But back then, he did not manage to spot the small group of people hiding inside of the forest. This truly stood to testament for how strong their concealment method was!

Maybe it also had something to do with the fact that his pseudo sword domain was going out of control, and he did not really pay any attention to his surroundings back when he rushed over to the mountain range…

Thinking about this, Xuan Hao hid his presence completely as he slowly began descending down towards the group of people hidden inside the small forest.

For them to be hiding so close to the Flying Sword Sect… They were most likely monitoring the situation of the sect.

But why? And who did they belong to? Daring to move so close to the Flying Sword Sect…

It had to be known that even if the other sects and the Heavenly Sky Kingdom had people monitoring the Flying Sword Sect, they would never dare to move as close as the group in the small forest had…

Whoosh~

Sneakily making his way through the forest, Xuan Hao soon spotted the small group of people chatting with each other inside a tent that was located inside a concealment formation of some sort…

…

”What the heck was that earlier!? We have to report it as soon as those damned communication talismans begin working again!”

A scared voice sounded out inside of the tent as a woman in her early thirties looked at the other people sitting together with her around a round table as they were in the process of discussing what had happened just moments ago.

”Indeed, if I’m not wrong, it should be the aura of someone in the Domain Lord realm… But why would someone like that show up here!? If they are from the Sky Empire and manage to find us…”

Saying the last part, a robust looking man around the same age as the woman spoke up as his face drained of colour as he thought about their current relationship with the people from the Sky Empire.

”Calm down both of you! This formation was set up by one of the elders and even someone in the Domain Lord Realm would have a hard time finding it without specifically looking for it! For now, we should just continue our job and keep an eye on the Flying Sword Sect, if that person returns, we will report it back to the elders. No need to trouble them over something like a Domain Lord from the Sky Empire showing up…”

An older looking man who seemed like the leader of the group narrowed his eyes as he said this. Calming down both the woman and robust looking man in the process.

”But that person has not shown up for at least 800 years and is most likely dead already… Why do we still need to stay around and keep an eye on the Flying Sword Sect…?”

Among the group, the youngest and last person in the group spoke up as she looked towards the leader with a questioning look in her eyes. Clearly not too happy about the fact that she was currently stationed to monitor the Flying Sword Sect.

”Hah… No matter what, that person was deemed to be extremely dangerous, and the elders still fear that person making a comeback in the future… But with so much time passing, I guess we will soon be recalled…”

Letting out a sigh as he looked over the young woman, the leader could not help but agree with her, but in the end, he was unable to go against the elder’s decision and could only remain observing the movements of the Flying Sword Sect and look out for that person…

”Really!?”

”Yeah, I don’t think they want to waste any more resources keeping this concealment formation running all year round and I heard rumours that the recent fight for power back home is getting more and more intense with each passing day… Apparently, they want to recall everyone inside the Sky Empire looking out for that person…”

Nodding his head, the leader explained with a serious look on his face as the three others listened attentively with a happy expression on their faces.

No matter what, they did not want to remain inside the territory of the Sky Empire any longer!

They had already stayed inside the small concealment formation and the small tent for 10 years!

If they were not cultivators, they would have long since gone insane from staying in such a small space for such a long time! Not to mention that they hadn’t eaten anything during these 10 years, surviving only with the help of their cultivation!
