Cultivating Disciples to Breakthrough

Realizing the danger of the situation he found himself in upon seeing the spatial restriction artifact being activated, the ancestor from the Blue Sea Empire didn’t panic, as he quickly took out a small jade and crushed it before engaging in battle with the Demon King Realm demonic cultivator. Instantly causing a brilliant wave of light to wash over him, as his aura seemed to jump to a new height.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The battle that would normally have been one between equals soon enough ended up becoming a one-sided beating, as the strength of the Blue Sea Empire Ancestor was now stronger than his opponent by an entire minor realm.

Before the Soul Ascension Realm, a single minor realm might not have mattered that much unless it was the difference between someone at the Peak of the Realm, but after one entered the Soul Ascension Realm. Even a single minor realm of difference would mean that it would be a one-sided battle in most circumstances.

This was even more so the case when it came to the Celestial Immortal Realm, where, although not close to the Profound Immortal in terms of difference between minor realm, still allowed the Celestial Immortal Realm Ancestor from the Blue Sea Empire to easily dominate his opponent without the other party having the ability to fight back.

This was no longer a battle between equals but had instead become one between a junior and a senior…

”You- You forcibly suppressed your cultivation realm to keep it hidden!? You’re not in the Early Stage of the Celestial Immortal Realm, but instead the Middle Stage of the Celestial Immortal Realm!?”

As he suddenly found himself being one-sidedly beaten up, the Demon King Realm demonic cultivator could not help exclaiming in a somewhat shocked voice. Not having expected for the Celestial Immortal Realm cultivator that he had determined to be someone similar to himself in strength was actually someone at the Middle Stage of the Celestial Immortal Realm.

Normally, such a misunderstanding would have been impossible considering that it was relatively simple for him to sense whether or not the other party was in the Early or Middle Stage of the Celestial Immortal Realm before he even attacked.

The main problem and reason why he had failed to determine the strength of his opponent this time around was not because he had failed to examine his opponent before engaging him, but instead because the other party had used some kind special jade that masked his true cultivation realm.

Even if this demonic cultivator wasn’t the smartest amongst the demonic cultivators, he still understood the significance of something like this.

From being the hunter, he had suddenly turned into the target, as he understood his opponent’s intentions was not just to escape but had instead become to try and kill him before other Demon King Realm demonic cultivators could show up and lend him a hand!

Damnit! I spend so much effort preparing for that cultivator who appeared last time around to show up again. Even exchanging for a spatial restriction artifact to prevent him from escaping by using the Dao of Space, but now…. Now it looks like I was the one who walked into a trap! This guy definitely planned all of this from the beginning! From his appearance and fast escape using the dao of space!

Cursing silently to himself as he tried his best to fend off the Celestial Immortal Realm Ancestor of the Blue Sea Empire, the Demon King Realm demonic cultivator wholeheartedly believed that it was the person in front of him who had broken through his formation the last time around and that it was all a ruse to get him to confidently leave the Frozen Wasteland.

If he had known about this person’s strength beforehand, he would have never dared to leave the Frozen Wasteland on his own and would have instead sought help from more and from stronger demonic cultivators than himself.

After all, the importance of killing a Celestial Immortal Realm cultivator at the Middle Stage of the Realm far exceed the importance of killing a normal Celestial Immortal Realm cultivator. The main reason for this being that only those who managed to reach the Middle Stage of the Celestial Immortal Realm were qualified to be part of the battle between the strongest.

Those who had only just managed to reach the Celestial Immortal Realm and hadn’t made any progress after breaking through the realm simply weren’t qualified to participate in the battle where the strongest on both sides would inevitably fight it out!

As he thought about this, the demonic cultivator also realized that the only reason such a powerful figure had decided to appear in front on him was to both secure the space node stone mine and prevent the demonic cultivators from taking advantage of it, but also to kill him!

I have to escape!

Knowing that he stood no chance against the other party at this point in time, the Demon King Realm demonic cultivator didn’t bother thinking about the space node stone mine any longer, as he directly turned to run while also informing the few demonic cultivators in the Demon King Realm that he was familiar with.

Making sure to inform them not only about his location and the Middle Stage Celestial Immortal Realm cultivator currently trying to kill him, but also made sure to mention the existence of the space node stone mine. Understanding that there would be no way for him to continue monopolizing it with his own strength like he had been doing so far.

At the same time also knowing that there would be no way to move those friends of his into action without mentioning the existence of the space node stone mine, as someone at the Middle Stage of the Celestial Immortal Realm was not someone easy to face for those friends of his, as they would struggle in the same way he had without them working together to try and suppress this Celestial Immortal Realm cultivator.
