Cultivating Disciples to Breakthrough

Soon after Elder Song and the elders of the sect came to a decision, the entire sect swung into motion to construct the cultivation rooms for those trying to breakthrough to the Nascent Soul Realm or Domain Lord Realm as fast as possible, while Elder Song personally went to the Iron Sky Kingdom to ask for Yi Min’s help in the construction of the formations that would ensure the cultivation rooms wouldn’t be destroyed whenever someone broke through to the Domain Lord Realm inside of them.

Although the sect’s formation masters had grown a lot stronger over the past few years, they were still nowhere near strong enough to create a formation capable of contain the outburst of power from when someone broke through to the Domain Lord Realm. Not to mention, the expansion of the domain was a crucial part of breaking through to the Domain Lord Realm, so it couldn’t be fully restrained and had to be managed properly.

In the end, a large area around the base of the Seventh Star Peak was dedicated to creating a place where those at the Peak of the Nascent Soul Realm could break through to the Domain Lord Realm.

On second thought, it wasn’t really a cultivation room so to speak and was more so a large platform similar to the ones at the Third Star Peak. All designed around the sole purpose of ensuring that the uncontrolled domain of those who had just broken through to the Domain Lord Realm didn’t spill out and cause damage to the sect.

The size of the platform itself was also designed around the purpose of allowing up to 10 people to break through to the Domain Lord Realm at the same time without anyone affecting each other. While at the same time also having a few smaller platforms around the Domain Lord Realm platform for those in the Nascent Soul Realm.

Altogether, the construction of what had at first just seemed like a small cultivation room ended up becoming one of the largest projects taken on by the elders of the Star Shattering Sect since the establishment of the sect.

The main reason for this being that the requirements for a formation that needed to be capable of restraining the out-of-control domain of someone who had just broken through to the Domain Lord Realm was impossible to do at a smaller scale according to Yi Min.

Well… Not entirely impossible, just that Yi Min was far from skilled enough to create a formation at the scale of a normal cultivation room with the ability to restrain the domain of someone breaking through to the Domain Lord Realm without negatively impacting the breakthrough itself.

Of course, it wasn’t entirely a bad thing that the Domain Lord realm platform ended up being so massive, as it became a thing that the disciples could look forward to stepping onto in the future, while also giving the formation masters of the sect a place where they could gather to study the formations left behind by Yi Min.

All things considered, the Domain Lord Realm Platform, though taking more than a month to construct even with all of the sect’s resources focused on it, ended up becoming useful to more than just those trying to break through to the Domain Lord Realm.

Booom-!

And it didn’t take long before some of the elders at the Peak of the Nascent Soul Realm, who had helped in creating the platform, became the first to use it to breakthrough to the Domain Lord Realm-

Rumble-!

Soon causing the countless formations created by Yi Min with the assistance of the sect’s formation masters, to activate and restrain the new domains and prevent them from spreading outside the Domain Lord Realm Platform, while also not damaging the domains in question and instead redirecting them to expand towards an empty part of the platform.

In total, during the short demonstration of the Domain Lord Realm Platform, it perfectly allowed a total of four elders to break through to the Domain Lord Realm without affecting their breakthrough nor causing any damage outside of the Domain Lord Realm Platform that had long since been strengthened to the point that someone at the First Stage of the Domain Lord Realm had no way of damaging it.

”It works…”

”Yeah… Even though it was designed for more people to breakthrough at once, it still made me a bit nervous when seeing four breaking through at the same time.”

”Same, though its doubtful that there will come a time when 10 people will need to use it at the same time…”

Seeing the formation in action, the elders who had nervously gathered around to watch the four people test the Domain Lord Realm platform, all exclaimed happily as the sense of nervousness that had covered them only a few seconds earlier dissipated.

”Looks like its working well, Elder Song, if there is nothing else, I will be taking my leave.”

”Of course, you have a kingdom to attend to and I have already taken a month of your time for this. If there is anything you need help with, make sure to contact me and the Star Shattering Sect will help you.”

Standing a bit further away from the group of elders, Elder Song and Yi Min both exchanged a few short words after seeing that everything was working before Yi Min turned around and left.

Having already stayed at the Star Shattering Sect for the past month, she had essentially left her kingdom without any real preparations for such a long trip out and had to get back as fast as possible to prevent any problems from occurring. Especially so now that the core region of the fallen Sky Empire was in constant turmoil and there was almost always someone who came knocking at her border to cause trouble.

At the very least, after the rabbit demon beast dealt with the group of Soul Ascension Realm cultivators… And took one of them in as a pet? Servant? Subordinate? Ehm… She didn’t really know what the unfortunate Soul Ascension Realm cultivator had ended up as, but after that situation, the number of Soul Ascension Realm cultivators showing up to cause trouble for her had been reduced to zero.

Even then, the sheer number of Core Formation Realm, Nascent Soul Realm and Domain Lord Realm cultivators trying to spread the chaos of the core region to her kingdom had only increased.

If not for the fact that the guardian formation of her kingdom consumed an ungodly number of spirit stones to keep active, she would have just directly used it to prevent anyone from entering her kingdom from the chaotic core region of the fallen Sky Empire.

Whoosh

~!

With this in mind, Yi Min didn’t waste a single second as she rushed back to her kingdom. Fully prepared to deal with the large number of troublemakers who would have taken advantage of her absence to sneak inside her kingdom to try and cause problems.

Not only Yi Min had this kind of problem, but the rest of the Star Shattering Sect’s territory had also begun to get affected by the chaos, as the number of cultivators entering the Star Shattering Sect’s territory through its bordering regions had begun increasing.

At first, Feng Chen, who had been in charge of most of the sect’s internal and external matters while Elder Song had been busy with the construction of the Domain Lord Realm Platform, had thought that this was due to some kind of scheme from the Onyx Empire or other powers who might want to weaken the power of the Satar Shattering Sect.

However, after an investigation into the situation by Elder Dust Fairy, it was discovered that the large influx of cultivators didn’t come due to some kind of plot, but instead came because the Onyx Empire and other empires bordering the Frozen Wasteland had begun to struggle against the continuous flow of increasingly strong demonic cultivators.

The situation had gotten bad enough that the Onyx Empire and other empires had ended up losing dozens of kingdoms bordering the Frozen Wasteland, causing the people who managed to escape to flee in all directions, one of which happened to be in the direction of the Star Shattering Sect.

As for why the Star Shattering Sect hadn’t been affected yet… That was due to the barrier Xuan Hao had created to prevent any demonic cultivators from invading the territory of what had once been the Sky Empire.

Of course, powerful demonic cultivators would still be capable of forcefully passing through the barrier but considering that someone had went through the trouble of creating such a massive and terrifying barrier, the demonic cultivators got the hint and decided it would be better to not offend the power behind it and instead ended up flooding into the empires at the edges of the barrier.

In the end, this had caused the number of demonic cultivators in the Onyx Empire and other empires close to the former territory of the Sky Empire to be invaded by a far larger number of demonic cultivators…
