Cultivating Disciples to Breakthrough

Chapter 1365  Escape Path

"Wha-!? Did… Did someone just break the formation and steal the unprocessed space node stones?" Not able to believe what had just happened, as everything happened far too fast for him to react, one of the two Demon Lord Realm demonic cultivators stationed to guard the small kingdom and space node stones being mined there, could not help saying this out loud with a shocked expression on his face.

Clearly, from the moment Xuan Hao had appeared to when he had arrived at the mine and then escaped again, he hadn't even managed to get up from his position before everything was over. Leaving him in a rather confused state about what had just happened.

After all, with his strength in the Demon Lord Realm, there were not many people who could easily sneak past him and escape before he even had the time to respond.

The only people who had this kind of ability would be the Demon King or Celestial Immortal Realm Experts… And the thought of such a terrifying existence breaking into the small kingdom he was in charge of guarding was more than enough to send a shiver down his spine. Especially considering that he understood very well how important the space node stones being mined were.

Terrifying… If I'm not wrong, that person should not even be a demonic cultivator, but instead one of those Celestial Immortal Realm cultivators from the core region!

Feeling even more terrified as his thoughts continued wandering, the demonic cultivator didn't even bother chasing after Xuan Hao. Instead, just turning towards his companion. Only to find out that his companion was similarly looking at him with a shocked expression on his face.

Obviously, it was not just him who had been shocked and terrified by what had just happened…

"Let's inform the Demon King about this…"

"Yes… If we don't, he might come looking to kill us later when he realizes such a large amount of space node stones are suddenly missing. Not to mention, the formation breaking should have already alerted him to the situation."

As the two demonic cultivators came to a decision on what to do, one of them nervously picked up a communication talisman before contacting their lord about the situation and what had happened.

Both of them making absolutely sure to state that the intruder's strength had surpassed the Demon Lord Realm. Understanding that only if their opponent's strength was far more powerful than theirs would they have a chance to survive when their lord arrived to personally inspect the situation…

Because of this, Xuan Hao was left escaping on his own without anyone chasing after him, something that he only ended up finding out about after he reached the edge of the Frozen Wasteland and began preparing for the long-distance teleportation.

Not that this ended up changing any of his plans, as he still intended to first go to the Blue Sea Empire before laying low for a few days or weeks before returning to the Star Shattering Sect.

No matter what, he didn't want a Demon King Realm demonic cultivator to focus his attention on the Star Shattering Sect.

After all, even if the chaotic qi formation could defend against the demonic cultivators, there was no way to defend that outside of the Shattered Star Peaks against a Demon King Realm demonic cultivator,

In the end, by the time that the Demon King Realm demonic cultivator appeared at the scene to personally investigate the situation in an attempt to find out who was behind the attack, Xuan Hao had already long since made his way into the Blue Sea Empire after using the long-distance teleportation technique far beyond what he intended to do. Leaving him almost defenseless as he popped out in front of a small village not too far away from the first large city he had encountered after entering the Blue Sea Empire.

Even if this was risky. Especially considering the fact that the Celestial Immortal Realm Ancestors of the Blue Sea Empire would be on edge due to the demonic cultivators failed assassination attempt of one of them, Xuan Hao felt it was worth it considering that it might save him and his sect the trouble of potentially being targeted by a Demon King Realm demonic cultivator.

And… From the fact that he couldn't sense anyone approaching him since he had appeared, Xuan Hao was confident that he hadn't yet been spotted. Allowing him to traverse the Blue Sea Empire relatively easily.

However, to ensure that it would be convincing in case the Demon King Realm demonic cultivator in charge of the space node stones did have a way to track him, Xuan Hao decided to move in the general location of where he guessed the capital to be located.

Meaning that he ended up following the large river upstream towards the inland sea he had heard about, as the capital city of the Blue Sea Empire was said to be located there.

At the same time, he also began thinking about what to do with his information on the space node mine located on the desolate edges of the continent.

First, he wanted to try and possibly sell the information as there wasn't much, he could do about it outside of the with his current strength, but this thought didn't last long, as he realized the very real possibility of him being killed off as a way to try and silence information on the space node stone mine.

On the other hand, it would be far better idea for him to keep the matter a secret for now… And when the demonic cultivators began trying to attack the territory of the Star Shattering Sect in the future, he could then release the information on the space node stones. Potentially forcing the powerful demonic cultivators to back off as they would start fighting over the mine.

Of course, outside of demonic cultivators, this would also gain attention from the other major powers around. Likely resulting in a large-scale battle at the outer edges of the continent, a battle that would buy the Star Shattering Sect some more time if needed.

All things considered, even though he didn't manage to get his hands on all of the space node stones that had been mined so far, Xuan Hao felt more than satisfied with what he had managed to gain.

Whoosh~!

With that in mind, Xuan Hao decided to find a comfortable place to sit down and recover the strength he had lost during his long-distance teleportation.

Soon realizing that outside of the general exhaustion caused by his dantian almost being fully emptied out, his body had also suffered quite a bit of damage because of the long travel through space.

If not for the fact that his body could be considered stronger than normal, Xuan Hao didn't doubt that he might have ended up tearing himself apart by using the long-distance teleportation technique.

Luckily, he didn't have the qi to continue moving forward with his long-distance teleportation technique. Resulting in him managing to leave the hastily constructed spatial passage from accidentally killing him in the process.

…

"This… Is this considered the safe passage through the mountain range!?"

Ptsh-!

At the same time Xuan Hao reached the Blue Sea Empire, Chu Yang was cutting down a large demon beast as he complained loudly to himself with an exhausted expression on his face.

It had been weeks at since he started making his way into the mountain range in hopes of using the safe passage, he had acquired to safely reach the other side of the mountain range, but he had found no success so far and was still stuck wandering the mountain range hoping that he was moving in the correct direction.

Not to mention, he was starting to doubt whether or not the information he had bought was even accurate in the first place, as he found himself constantly fighting against demon beasts as he ventured further inside the mountain range.

This was not just a few weaker demon beasts in the Foundation Establishment or Core Formation Realm, but instead powerful demon beasts in the Domain Lord Realm!

Once, he had even managed to spot a demon beast in the Soul Ascension Realm that he had only barely managed to avoid by sheer luck.

No matter how he looked at it, there was no way that this could be considered a safe passage through the mountain range.

In his eyes, it felt more like some kind of death trap…

Of course, even with these thoughts, he still continued following the safe passage, as it didn't take long for him to realize that it was even more dangerous to veer off the passage that he had bought.

His one encounter with a Soul Ascension Realm demon beast was after all when he had veered slightly off the safe passage.

So, even if he felt unwilling, he continued moving along the safe passage without any end in sight…n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om
