Cultivating Disciples to Breakthrough

Chapter 768 Xu Bao

Feeling even more determined to reach the Soul Ascension Realm after having finished reading through the Divine Will Scripture, Xuan Hao stood up from the small bench he had been sitting on for the last day before making his way towards the remote inn where the group of experts from the different independent sects across the Sky Empire had gathered together.

If he really wanted to start breaking through to the Soul Ascension Realm, the most important thing was to first gather as much information he could about the realm. After all, currently, his information on the Soul Ascension Realm was extremely limited.

Even to this day, he still had no clear idea about the different minor realms of the Soul Ascension Realm and only understood that the Soul Ascension Realm was split into 6 minor realms. Different from the usual nine minor realms that were present in the rest of the major cultivation realms so far.

”Hm?”

Reaching the remote inn within a short period of time, Xuan Hao could not help feeling a bit surprised when he discovered that the group were all sitting outside the inn chatting happily with each other.

Considering that they were trying to not get seen by anyone from the large kingdoms controlling most of the sects inside the Sky Empire and have them take action against them before the start of the sect alliance meeting, it was quite surprising to see all of them carelessly sitting together in small groups outside the inn chatting with each other.

Well... Considering that Iʼm helping them now, they should not care too much about any retaliations from those large kingdoms of the Sky Empire.

After all, no matter how powerful those kingdoms are, the strongest person inside them would have only reached the Late Stage of the Domain Lord Realm... And there is no way they would be willing to carelessly offend another Late Stage Domain Lord. Especially if that Domain Lord was actually someone above the Seventh Stage of the Domain Lord Realm...

Thinking about this to himself as he made his way towards the remote inn, Xuan Hao avoided the group of people sitting outside and directly entered the inn before heading towards the strongest person among the group of experts from the independent sect that was currently inside a room somewhere at the second floor of the inn, the Sixth Stage Domain Lord Realm Expert!

No matter what, Xuan Hao had a feeling that it would be best for him to seek out the strongest expert present if he wanted to find out something about the Soul Ascension Realm.

”Hey... Isnʼt that-”

”Yeah... Itʼs that senior...”

”He already returned... Does he perhaps have something to ask the other seniors at the Domain Lord Realm before the meeting?”

As Xuan Hao made his way inside the remote inn before heading up the stairs towards the room where the Sixth Stage Domain Lord Realm Expert was located, the group of experts sitting in front of the inn and inside of it all began eagerly chatting with each other as they looked in Xuan Haoʼs direction filled with curiosity.

””...””

Of course, the other Domain Lord Realm Experts who were present also noticed Xuan Hao... But after seeing that he was heading up towards the second floor of the inn without greeting them, they decided to keep quiet.

”What do you think the senior is here for?”

”Hm... If Iʼm not wrong, he should be here to talk with that old man about something, I just have no idea what it could be he want to ask him about.”

”Maybe something related to the upcoming meeting? After all, the senior did leave without hearing about our plans for the meeting, he could have returned this time to get a clear picture of our plans before the meeting officially starts.”

”Indeed... That sounds reasonable...”

As the Domain Lords quietly chatted with each other about what reason Xuan Hao might have to show up now, Xuan Hao arrived in front of a rundown wooden door. Even without using his divine sense to see what was on the other side of the door, Xuan Hao could still feel the powerful aura belonging to a Peak Sixth Stage Domain Lord Realm Expert leaking out from the other side as the person behind the door had not fully restrained his cultivation base due to him being in the process of cultivating.

Knock-

”Come in.”

Barely manging to knock on the door, Xuan Hao felt the aura belonging to a Peak Sixth Stage Domain Lord disappear before a voice echoed out from the other side of the door before the door in question slowly opened. Showing a small room with only a simple bed and a small table inside it, the old man who was the leader of the group of independent sects could be seen sitting in the middle of this small, dilapidated inn room.

Even from a glance, it was obvious that the old man had not expected to see him from the surprised look that flashed past his eyes for an instant after seeing him.

”Greetings Senior Xuan, my name is Xu Bao, but most people just refer to me as Elder Xu. If you have any questions regarding the meeting, you can feel free to ask away, I donʼt really have much to do before the meeting...”

”Greetings Elder Xu, Iʼm indeed here to ask you about something, but itʼs not about the meeting... Instead, itʼs about the Soul Ascension Realm!”

”Information on the Soul Ascension Realm...?”

”Yes!”

Seeing the confused expression on Elder Xuʼs face as he tried comprehending why Xuan Hao had asked him about the Soul Ascension Realm, Xuan Hao found a simple chair hidden away in the corner of the mostly empty inn room before sitting down and waiting for Elder Xu to respond to him.

”The Soul Ascension Realm... I really donʼt know much about the Soul Ascension Realm, but I can tell you what I know, Is that fine?”

”Yes, I just want to know about the Soul Ascension Realm.

”Okay...”

Having already formed the idea of Xuan Hao being from one of the sects from the ancient era that had hidden away, he could not understand why someone like that would ask him about the Soul Ascension Realm.

In the end, he concluded that the reason should be that Xuan Hao was testing him to see if he was also someone from a hidden sect. After all, if he could guess Xuan Hao was from a hidden sect, the other party would also be able to guess that he was from a hidden sect.

Given how much information he had about the Soul Ascension Realm compared to an ordinary person in the Domain Lord Realm. Even exceeding that of an ordinary Soul Ascension Realm Expert from an empire like the Sky Empire, it would be quite easy for Xuan Hao to tell that he should also be someone from a hidden sect!

Maybe this would even be a chance for his sect to connect back with their original main sect again with the help from another hidden sect!

Showing a determined expression on his face after understanding this, Elder Xu was fully prepared to show off his understand of the Soul Ascension Realm to this senior!

”...”

What on earth is with this expression? Why does he look like he is about to enter a life and death battle?

Sitting on the chair watching the constantly changing expression of Elder Xu, Xuan Hao could not help feeling a bit confused over what was happening inside the head of the old man.

Even without knowing what he was thinking about, Xuan Hao felt certain that the other party should have misunderstood something...

Maybe I should ask him to make sure he has no misunderstanding about-

”Senior! Do you want me to start from the process of reaching the first stage to face the first tribulation or just a direct explanation of the six minor realms and the six tribulations!?”

Interrupting Xuan Haoʼs train of thought, Elder Xu excitedly moved forward as he said this with a passionate expression on his face.

”...”

Not knowing what to say when Elder Xu suddenly came at him with such an excited expression, Xuan Hao almost felt certain that the old man had misunderstood something. The only problem was that he had no idea what he had misunderstood. After all, he was clearly talking about the Soul Ascension Realm and asking him what he wanted an explanation on regarding the Soul Ascension Realm...

”You can just start from the beginning, you can start with how a Domain Lord reaches the Soul Ascension Realm.”

”Yes! Starting from the begging is indeed better, this would also make it easier for me to give a proper description of the Soul Ascension Realm!”

Could I have misunderstood, and this old man is just excited to talk about the Soul Ascension Realm?

Deciding not to think too much about it, Xuan Hao decided to just listen to Elder Xu for now...
