Cultivating Disciples to Breakthrough

As his pseudo sword domain grew stronger, Xuan Hao was fully absorbed in his cultivation and did not discover that the remains of the pseudo domains on the stone monument slowly disappeared as his own pseudo sword domain grew.

This continued over the next few days as Xuan Hao was fully immersed.

During this period of time, the wanderer at the? Domain Lord Realm reached the same area and was only a few hundred meter above Xuan Hao before quickly flying by. Not discovering Xuan Hao in the ancient forest below as his aura had completely merged together with the surrounding environment.

A day after the wanderer had passed by Xuan Hao, he finally opened his eyes and calmy observed the surroundings as he felt his pseudo domain engulfing the area a few meters away from him.

The pseudo sword domain was not activated by Xuan Hao but was instead passively merged into the surrounding environment as a sharp sword intent could be felt from Xuan Hao with every move he made.

At the current moment, Xuan Hao felt that all he needed was a single thought to manifest his sword qi into a deadly attack.

”So, this is what a domain is like…” Waving his hand, Xuan Hao caused a sword made out of sword qi to manifest directly in front of him without any effort.

Whoosh~

Pointing in the direction of a nearby ancient tree, Xuan Hao watched as the sword flew forward and easily cut through the giant ancient tree, causing the giant tree to crash into the ground below.

The newfound power of his pseudo domain allowed him an even greater control over his sword qi and strengthened his sword intent at the same time. Making all his attacks even stronger than they were before.

”It has already been two days… I should hurry…” Looking over at the now empty stone monument, Xuan Hao quickly deduced the time he had spent improving his pseudo sword domain and felt a sense of urgency upon recalling the fact that the demon beasts were being unsealed earlier than expected.

The fact that he had used two days already, could potentially force him to give up on the small palace and the ancient treasure inside mentioned by the treasure hunter…

But Xuan Hao did not really regret it, as his strength had improved, and he felt even more clear at how he should reach the Domain Lord Realm in the future.

Even if he had to give up on the ancient treasure mentioned by the treasure hunter, Xuan Hao still felt that it was worth it for him!

Not wasting anymore time staying around the stone monument, Xuan Hao cast one last look towards the stone monument and the names etched onto it before a sword floated out in front of him.

Jumping onto his sword, Xuan Hao quickly ascended into the sky and flew in the direction of the small palace mentioned by the treasure hunter.

Flying through the air, Xuan Hao also discovered that his speed had improved by a large margin. At this rate, he should be able to reach the small palace located at the border between the Nascent Soul Realm area and the Domain Lord Realm area within a few hours!

…

As Xuan Hao was making his way over in the direction of the border area, the wanderer from earlier had already managed to make it and had just finished inspecting one of the formation pillars located there.

”These are so much more impressive compared to the first pair… I really wonder what kind of crazy bastard wasted so many resources to construct them and why… These things should not be required to seal some demon beasts in the Domain Lord Realm, heck, even someone above the domain lord realm could be sealed by this formation if that was its purpose…” The pillars at the border between the Nascent Soul Realm area and the Domain Lord area were widely different as the ones present here were smaller and looked more minimalistic, with only a few symbols visible on them.

The wanderer did not let this simple exterior fool him, as he clearly knew about the terrifying might hidden beneath the surface of these pillars.

Even if a single one of those pillars were used as a formation core to execute a killing formation, the wanderer knew very well his only option would be death!

This just made the wanderer even more interested in the core of this giant formation. After all, for the formation to be stable meant that the formation core was able to supress all the auxiliary parts and keep them operating.

The strength of the formation core could easily be seen just from this, and the wanderer wanted nothing more than to find it and study how it was able to operate such a giant formation!

”Sadly, it looks like things are going to get difficult from here on out…” Staring at the area beyond the formation pillar, the wanderer locked eyes with a giant worm like creature slithering around on the ground in front of him.

The worm like creature was at the Domain Lord Realm! The same realm as the wanderer himself!

But the wanderer did not back down as he took out his wooden staff and made his way over towards the giant worm like creature beyond the formation pillar.

The wanderer did not wait for the worm like creature to react as he swung his staff down towards it. At the same time a calm ocean manifested behind the wanderer as a torrent of water qi merged together with the wooden staff, causing the wooden staff to shine with a bright blue light as the calm ocean behind the wanderer began to descend down towards the worm like creature together with the simple wooden staff.

Boom!

This took a lot of time to explain, but it happened in an instant as the worm like creature barely managed to react before the wooden staff hit it.

Screech!

A terrifying screech erupted from the worm like creature as it struggled under the wooden staff, but soon it was suppressed as the calm ocean descended and directly killed it.

”At least the demon beasts around the border do not seem to have a domain yet… Only their physical body reached the Domain Lord Realm…” Looking at the remains of the worm like creature, the wanderer only paid attention to it for a short moment before moving deeper into the Domain Lord area of the secret realm.
