Cultivating Disciples to Breakthrough

Chapter 1402  A Mission For The Rabbit Demon Beast

As he finished his conversation with Xuan Gui and managed to figure out what the artifact that had been able to notice his presence was, Xuan Hao could not help feeling a bit uneasy knowing that one of the bodies prepared by the Demon King of the Frozen Wastelands was actually so close the Star Shattering Sect. Understanding that the presence of this demonic cultivator meant that there was the possibility that the strongest existence in the Frozen Wasteland might turn his attention towards the Star Shattering Sect.

Although the chance of this was unlikely and this had a higher chance of having something to do with the dead demonic cultivator in the Demon King Realm that the winged lion demon beast had taken a bite out, he also understood that the Star Shattering Sect's closeness to the location where the body had been located by the winged lion demon beast meant that there was a high chance of the Star Shattering Sect getting caught up in whatever had happened in that location.

After all, the body had been inside the Star Shattering Sect. Meaning that anyone trying to investigate what had happened to that demonic cultivator would likely turn their attention towards the Star Shattering Sect.

Normally, if the Star Shattering Sect had just been a power similar to those other kingdoms and smaller empires around it, it would have been fine, as the powerful cultivator or demonic cultivator looking into the situation would have just been able to use their divine sense to check out the situation without anyone noticing, but… The Star Shattering Sect was far stronger than these surrounding powers and had the chaotic qi formation that was more than capable of preventing anyone in the Celestial Immortal Realm or Demon King Realm from seeing what was inside the Shattered Star Peaks.

Inevitably, this would end up drawing unwanted attention to the Star Shattering Sect and possibly even make the one trying to investigate the situation think that the Star Shattering Sect was somehow involved in what had happened to that Demon King Realm demonic cultivator.

Even though the Star Shattering Sect had grown stronger over the past few years and Xuan Hao felt confident in his current strength, he also understood that there was no way for the current Star Shattering Sect to face off against someone in the Celestial Immortal Realm or the Demon King Realm.

At most, the sect could retreat back to the Shattered Star Peaks and hide away inside the chaotic qi formation, but that would essentially destroy all of the work that the sect had put into expanding its territory along with giving up most of the resources that the sect had managed to secure.

For the future growth of the Star Shattering Sect, there was absolutely no way that Xuan Hao would want something like that to happen, as it would also cause the growth of his disciples to slow down and in turn also slow down his own cultivation speed.

Not to mention, although the chaotic qi formation had proved that it had the strength to resist against someone in the Celestial Immortal Realm in the past, he had no idea if the formation would be able to endure against a continued attack from someone in the Celestial Immortal Realm or the Demon King Realm… And that was not even considering that even stronger existence at the Profound Immortal Realm and the demonic cultivators equivalent to that realm might get attracted after learning about the situation.

No… I have to ensure that this doesn't end up causing any future problems for the sect!

In the end, by the point that Xuan Hao had returned back to the Eighth Star Peak and was about to continue studying the ancient teleportation formation, he had already resolved himself to figure out and solve the dangerous situation that the sect now unknowingly found itself in. n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

The only problem was that the only one who might know about what had happened to the demonic cultivator in the Demon King Realm was related to the Demon King of the Frozen Wastelands and had a way to detect his presence before he even got close to him.

Not just that, but he was apparently also someone powerful in the True Demon Realm. Making it difficult for the Star Shattering Sect to dispatch anyone at the Soul Ascension Realm to try and take care of the situation in his place.

The only ones in the sect that had reached the Soul Ascension Realm were around the earlier stages of the realm and were far from reaching the peak of the realm that this demonic cultivator should be comparable to.

Of course, there was also the fact that his goal wasn't to kill the demonic cultivator, as that might end up drawing unwanted attention. Instead, it was to try and figure out what that demonic cultivator was up to and figure out a way to get them to leave the borders of the Star Shattering Sect as fast as possible.

But doing so would require someone not strong enough to pose a threat to the demonic cultivator, but still strong enough to quietly monitor him and his actions…

Wait… Maybe the rabbit demon beast could, do it? With its size, no ordinary True Demon Realm or Soul Ascension Realm cultivator should be able to easily discover it. Not to mention, it should be fast enough to escape even if a Demon Lord shows up. If I lend it a bit of a hand in concealing its presence, it should be possible…

Narrowing both of his eyes as he thought about this, Xuan Hao realized that the rabbit demon beast that had been left to help Yi Min defend her kingdom was the perfect one for the job with a bit of assistance on his side.

The only problem was that there wouldn't be anyone to defend the Iron Sky Kingdom while the rabbit demon beast was gone, as Yi Min was still in the Star Shattering Sect helping out the elders of the Blacksmithing Hall.

Although, he could defend the kingdom and borders himself…

"Haaa… Looks like building out a network of teleportation formations will have to wait for a bit longer…" Shaking his head as he said this to himself while looking back towards the ancient teleportation formation that he had been about to sit down in front of to continue studying, Xuan Hao got up before leaving the Eighth Star Peak.

First heading towards the Sea of a Thousand Furnaces where Yi min was currently teaching a group of elders and disciples about the Dao of Blacksmithing before informing her about him taking over the job of guarding the Iron Sky Kingdom before leaving for the Iron Sky Kingdom to pick up the rabbit demon beast and having it take on the little mission of spying on the demonic cultivator.

Not bothering to explain the reason why to the confused expression on Yi Min's face, who had no idea why he would suddenly be taking over the protection of the Iron Sky Kingdom and the resources inside the chaotic region of the former Sky Empire linked to the kingdom.

Considering that it would be best for him to leave as soon as possible, as any time wasted could potentially lead to that demonic cultivator growing interested in the Star Shattering Sect.

At the very least, he hoped that the demonic cultivator would not associate the strong presence at the borders of the Star Shattering Sect with the Star Shattering Sect and would instead just think of it as someone from the Blue Sea Empire who happened to pass through the area and took a week to check out the situation of demonic cultivators in the area.

Although it was not likely for something like that to happen, it wasn't entirely unrealistic considering that the Blue Sea Empire had at this point established a permanent presence in the Onyx Empire right next to the Star Shattering Sect's territory.

Apparently having turned the Onyx Empire into their primary stronghold at the border of the Frozen Wasteland against the influx of demonic cultivators. The reason being that it was in a relatively central position along the Blue Sea Empire's border with the Frozen Wasteland, while at the same time already having been mostly abandoned by normal mortals due to the last few assaults on the Onyx Empire.

Well… Most of the mortals didn't abandon the Onyx Empire so to speak but were instead just devoured or killed by the demonic cultivators when they had flooded into the empire in the past.

No matter, it still gave the Blue Sea Empire a relatively good area to fight without killing too many mortals in the process, though, that was still for the future, as the Frozen Wasteland didn't seem too intent on focusing their full strength on taking down the Blue Sea Empire at the moment. Instead being focused on other major empires along their borders.
