Cultivating Disciples to Breakthrough

Chapter 1295  Trapped

Reaching the Frozen Wasteland filled still brimming with killing intent after having cleaned up the demonic cultivators running rampant in the Onyx Empire, the Celestial Immortal Realm ancestor from the Blue Sea Empire slowed down as he began to use his divine sense to check his surroundings for the Demon Lord Realm demonic cultivators.

”There you are…”

Not taking long before he spotted the three Demon Lord Realm demonic cultivators further inside the Frozen Wasteland.

Whoosh~!

However, instead of directly flying deeper inside the Frozen Wasteland to kill them, he decided to gather his strength together into a powerful attack before launching it towards the three Demon Lord Realm demonic cultivators in the distance. Intending to kill them off from afar without having to wander too far into the Frozen Wasteland.

After all, even though he was filled with killing intent and wanted nothing more than to kill those three demonic cultivators, he wasnʼt dumb enough to just wander deeper into the Frozen Wasteland where an ambush not much different from the one that his grandson had died to might be waiting for him.

Understanding very well why the Frozen Wasteland had managed to remain a haven for demonic cultivators without being destroyed by the Blue Sea Empire and other powerful empires that surrounded it.

The most obvious reason being the powerful demonic cultivators at the Demon King Realm comparable to someone like himself at the Celestial Immortal Realm…

BOOOM-!

Watching with his divine sense as his attack landed only a few seconds after he had thrown it out, the ancestor from the Blue Sea Empire could not help narrowing his eyes as he noticed a bright red demonic barrier engulfing the three demonic cultivators to protect them just before his attack landed.

Although this did result in the barrier shattering a few seconds later, the ancestor from the Blue Sea Empire didnʼt feel the slightest bit happy nor did he try to throw out another attack. Knowing that doing so would most likely just result in another similar barrier appearing to protect the three demonic cultivators who were now shivering in fear while looking in his direction.

With that in mind, the ancestor from the Blue Sea Empire instead focused his attention on an empty spot just beside the three shivering demonic cultivators as his eyes narrowed even more than before.

Even if it had only been for a brief moment, his divine sense had long since enveloped the three Demon Lord Realm demonic cultivators and the area around him. Allowing him to notice the slight change in that empty space.

Whoosh~

And like he had expected, a figure covered in blood red robe emerged from the empty spot beside the three Demon Lord Realm demonic cultivators. Shocking the three terrified demonic cultivators even more as they had seemingly no idea about this person having been there in the first place.

”Blood Lotus Demon King!? W-we greet his excellency!”

””…””

However, it didnʼt take long before one of the three recognized the person that had emerged as none other than one of the demon kings in control of the Frozen Wasteland, causing him to bow his head, something that was soon followed by the other two demonic cultivators.

Though not the Demon King of the Frozen Wasteland who could be considered the ruler of the Frozen Wasteland, a demon king was still a demon king, an existence far beyond small demon lords like themselves.

”To think a demon king would be showing up. Looks like he intended to use those three as bait to ambush me…”

Shaking his head with a look of disdain on his face as he said this while looking towards the demon king that had emerged, the ancestor from the Blue Sea Empire didnʼt show the slightest hint of fear as he directly took out a small talisman and shattered it before waiting to see what the demon king planned to do now that his ambush had failed.

The talisman he had just shattered was a safety precaution that would instantly inform the rest of the ancestors from the Blue Sea Empire that he had encountered someone at the Celestial Immortal Realm or a demonic cultivator in the Demon King Realm.

In another few minutes, two more ancestors from the Blue Sea Empire would be showing up to ensure that nothing went wrong. After all, someone in the Dao Seed Realm dying was fine and didnʼt harm the foundation of the Blue Sea Empire, but someone at the Celestial Immortal Realm was a completely different matter.

Even if the Blue Sea Empire could be considered among the strongest on the Ewaria Continent and could endure the loss of one or two Celestial Immortal Realm cultivators without their foundation being affected much, it didnʼt mean that they planned on doing so.

If possible, they would still do everything in their power to ensure that none of the Celestial Immortal Realm ancestors ended up dying.

”…”

Knowing that the ambush plan had failed, the Blood Lotus Demon King remained silent as he kept his attention focused on the Blue Sea Empire Ancestor in the distance. Completely ignoring the existence of the three demon lords who had no idea whether to stay or run away.

In the end, a stalemate emerged between the two sides, one waiting for reinforcements, while the other hadnʼt made any clear indication of what he wanted to do after his ambush had failed.

Whoosh-!

Whoosh-!

”Wow, it really is a demon king, I didnʼt expect one of them to emerge. Are they perhaps tired of being trapped in this cold place and want to start a full-blown war? Didnʼt they learn from the last time around?”

”Perhaps… They have been awfully quiet for the past few thousand years…”

As a few minutes flew by, two more ancestors from the Blue Sea Empire soon appeared beside the first, as they both commented casually while looking over in the direction of the demonic cultivator that remained completely silent since he had appeared.

”Now that you two are here, should we try and kill this demonic cultivator? Even if more demon kings end up showing up, with three of us here, we should be able to escape without any problem.”

”Hm… Although it is a bit risky to go deeper inside the Frozen Wasteland, it shouldnʼt be much of a problem considering we are three.”

”Indeed! Even if we canʼt kill that demon king, we should at least be able to kill those three Demon Lord Realm demonic cultivators!”

Not wasting much time chatting with each other, the three ancestors from the Blue Sea Empire soon came to an agreement, as they all used their movement techniques to close the distance between themselves and the demon king referred to as Blood Lotus by the three Demon Lord Realm demonic cultivators-

RUUUUMBLE-!

BOOM!

Following which a terrifying power containing the combined might of three Celestial Immortal Realm cultivators descended before exploding with a might far beyond something a single demon king should be able to safely deal with.

Whoosh~!

However, contrary to the scene of the demon king getting sent flying that the three ancestors had expected to see, they were instead met with the sight of a large blood red barrier that perfectly absorbed the attack without the slightest bit of damage. Completely different from what had happened only minutes earlier when the first ancestor had launched a long-distance attack towards the three Demon Lord Realm demonic cultivators.

Rumble~

And to make matters worse, the ground and air around them began to tremble ever so slightly as everything around them was soon replaced by an endless sea of blood and blood red sky.

”This… Looks like we walked into a formation.”

”You donʼt say…”

”No need to worry you two, we are still three against one. No matter how much effort this guy put into this formation, itʼs impossible for him to trap us here for long, let alone kill us!”

”I know… Itʼs just annoying to break these trapping formations…”

”True…”

However, instead of panicking at the fact that they were trapped inside a formation, the three ancestors from the Blue Sea Empire only let out somewhat annoyed exclamations before all three of them erupted with their full strength. Beginning the process of forcibly breaking out of the formation through strength alone.

Although this would take longer than solving the formation, none of the three were skilled in the Dao of Formations, so they could only go with the most rudimentary way of breaking the formation through strength.

”Looks like this should keep them trapped for a few hours…” Seeing that the three had been trapped and wouldnʼt be able to escape in the next few hours, the demon king that had remained silent so far finally spoke up as he turned towards the three Demon Lord Realm demonic cultivators. ”You three, I have something for you to do before they break free or more ancestor from the Blue Sea Empire shows up...”
