Cultivating Disciples to Breakthrough

Chapter 2209: Disciples status update

Thinking about how the winged lion demon beast might have been kidnapped while he had been in seclusion, Xuan Hao couldn’t help silently glancing towards his status. Seeing the clear indication that the winged lion demon beast was still very much alive even after being kidnapped... Jokes aside, the winged lion demon beast had a way to contact him in case it really ended up in a dangerous situation it couldn’t handle on its own. The fact that he hadn’t been contacted by it meant it was fine.

At the very least, he didn’t feel the need to start worrying about the winged lion demon beast anymore, who knew, maybe the winged lion demon beast had also felt it was lacking in strength and had set off in search of an opportunity to reach the Profound Immortal Realm and breakthrough the bottleneck that had been holding it back so far.

Okay... That was a bit unrealistic, but he could at least dream. The most likely reason behind the winged lion demon beast’s disappearance was that the winged lion demon beast had somehow stumbled into some ancient teleportation formation that had taken it away from the Star Shattering Sect.

Not something unrealistic given how there were indeed a few such ancient teleportation formations scattered around the sect’s borders with the demonic cultivator. Especially with how some of those ancient teleportation formations that looked either unstable or broken down could be found on some prime sunbathing spots on the different mountains throughout the border region.

Although he wanted to go have a look and see if he could find out where this little demon beast had ended up disappearing to, he didn’t exactly have that much free time on hand after arranging a proper meeting with the Myriad Treasure Hall in less than ten days. In the end, he dedicated a little over three days to looking through different ancient teleportation formation hidden away throughout the border region that had long since decayed or run out of energy of the long years before he made his way back to sect after being unsuccessful in finding any traces of the winged lion demon beast.

Still, the three days weren’t entirely wasted, as outside of deepening his understanding of teleportation formations, he also got a general grasp of the purpose behind the numerous ancient teleportation formations. Learning from his few days of exploration that these ancient teleportation formations should once have been part of a teleportation network not much different from the internal teleportation network currently in use by the Star Shattering Sect.

Of course, a clear difference between this ancient teleportation network and that of the Star Shattering Sect was the size of the two.

While the Star Shattering Sect’s teleportation network covered a small and somewhat modest area, the ancient teleportation network spanned an area larger than the entire Northern Central Region, with several parts of the other three central regions also having parts of this ancient teleportation network within their borders.

This kind of information wasn’t something he dug up by using these ancient teleportation formations. Instead, he had dug through the internal wiring of those ancient teleportation formations and managed to fish out some still intact spatial coordinates within the decaying internal structure of those formations, something that had only been possible thanks to his comprehension of the Dao of Space reaching the Origin Realm.

Painting a clear picture of the once glorious power that had existed centered around the Northern Central Region before it had turned into the Northern Central Region.

Together with the ancient dao seals that also just happened to be present within the vast borders of this now gone ancient power, it made him wonder if the being that had been split up and sealed inside those ancient dao seal had been sealed by this ancient power. After all, just the scale of this ancient power alone made it clear that it existed in a completely different league from an ancient hidden sect. Potentially even being one of the Holy Lands of the ancient era before the cataclysm.

The only guess he had as to who this ancient power was, was the Mirage Sect. Outside of that, he didn’t have any other clue as to what other ancient power might be behind such a large teleportation network.

"No matter what, the little winged lion will have to wait for a bit..." Muttering this as he gazed down towards the ancient teleportation formation he had investigated not long ago, Xuan Hao didn’t linger around the border region any longer and made his way back to the sect again. Deciding to use the few days left before the senior member of the Myriad Treasure Hall showed up to inspect the progress of his disciples during his seclusion to breakthrough to the Star Creation Realm.

Starting with Qing Yi, whose cultivation realm might not have improved, but her comprehension had undoubtedly advanced, as she had even managed to successfully comprehend the Dao of Life during his seclusion this time around, though he had a feeling it also had to do with her relationship with Chun Hua.

And of the two, Lu Dongli was already starting to catch up with Li Chi, who had only just managed to reach the Third Stage of the Nascent Soul Realm while Lu Dongli had surged up from the Earlier Stages of the Foundation Establishment Realm all the way to the Later Stages of the Core Formation Realm.

But then again, she didn’t exactly have the time to be careless with her cultivation and had to strive to reach the Profound Immortal Realm before her inherent physique killed her.

However, impressive as Lu Dongli’s progress had been over the past few years, out of all his disciple, Chu Yang was by far the one that had improved the most during the past few years...
