Cultivating Disciples to Breakthrough

Deciding that he would not be going to the Blue Sea Empire like he had first been planning on doing, Xuan Hao decided to first visit a branch of the Explorer Union in the neutral territory between the Blue Sea Empire and the Wei Empire where Chu Yang had gone to train and was currently on his way back from.

The reason he didn't just go to one of the branches of the Explorer Union located closer to the Star Shattering Sect was because he doubted that they would have much information readily available about the core region. Mainly because the information inside a branch of the Explorer Union was mostly tied to where it was located. Containing information of the area around the branch itself and nearby powers.

Although he could probably get the information he wanted from the branch currently trading with the Star Shattering Sect, he had a feeling that doing so might require the one in charge of that branch contacting a larger one. Drawing even more attention towards the Star Shattering Sect.

Even worse, it was the Explorer Union, which might end up with them wanting to establish a branch inside the Falling Star City, something he wanted to avoid after having worked so hard to get rid of it to prevent any outside power from establishing a foothold inside the main city that acted as the main connection for the Star Shattering Sect to interact with the rest of the world.

No matter how good the Explorer Union's reputation might be, there was a reason why no major power seemed to be thrilled about allowing them to establish themselves anywhere close to the core of their power.

Well… Some weaker major powers had allowed something like that, but at least when it came to the true power players like the Blue Sea Empire, the Explorer Union had not been allowed anywhere near the capital city back when they had still been operating inside the territory of the Blue Sea Empire.

At this point in time, they were struggling to try and reestablish themselves inside of the Blue Sea Empire again as far as he was aware…

Whoosh~!

As he decided on the first place to head in search of elders for the sect, Xuan Hao didn't waste any time as he directly used the long distance teleportation for the first time since his comprehension of the Dao of Space reached the Perfection Realm. Resulting in an extremely stable spatial channel appearing in front of him as he stepped forward and disappeared from the territory of the Star Shattering Sect the next second.

Teleportation in itself was not something instantaneous, but instead the process of creating different spatial channels, that, in a sense, shrank the distance between two locations.

The higher one's comprehension of the Dao of Space was, the more this distance could be decreased. Allowing faster travel.

For Xuan Hao, it changed a trip that would normally take around seven minutes down to only a little over four minutes.

Although not a lot, he could now also use the long distance teleportation without requiring a five minute time to prepare ahead of time. Shorting the travel time by more and at the same time making using the long distance teleportation in combat a real possibility and also what he relied on to feel confident even in the face of someone in the Celestial Immortal Realm.

After all, in terms of speed, was there anyone who had the ability to catch up with someone capable of comparing to the terrifying speed of someone who comprehended the Dao of Space?

The only real problem Xuan Hao saw when it came to facing off against someone in the Celestial Immortal Realm or the Profound Immortal Realm was the fact that he had no idea if the other party had any way to seal off space to the extent that he couldn't escape.

Considering how long those in the Celestial Immortal Realm and the Profound Immortal Realm should have lived, he doubted that they wouldn't have something to seal space and prevent an opponent from escaping.

A very clear example of this would be the Demon King Realm demonic cultivator he had encountered after he stole the space node stones and was about to leave.

With that in mind, even though he felt confident in the face of someone in the Early Stage of the Celestial Immortal Realm now, he still intended on avoiding a confrontation with one in case he ran into them, as there was simply no reason for him to needlessly offend them just because part of him really wanted to test out his strength against someone in the Celestial Immortal Realm.

Another factor was also the fact that he didn't want his identity as someone from the Star Shattering Sect to leak out, as he had a feeling that some of the Celestial Immortal Realm cultivators were already aware of his existence and the fact that he was someone of at least the Celestial Immortal Realm from an ancient hidden sect.

If he ended up facing off against a Celestial Immortal Realm cultivator and ended up not being up to par, he could easily imagine the reaction from the Blue Sea empire, as they would almost certainly look into the Star Shattering Sect more closely than they had done so far. Potentially disregarding any of their previous cautious behavior and directly sending over someone in the Celestial Immortal Realm to test the waters.

A worst-case scenario and also a reason why he intended to go to somewhere away from the Blue Sea Empire where he was far more likely to get recognized.

As for disguising himself… Although he might be confident in doing so against someone in the Dao Seed Realm, he was highly doubtful he was skilled enough to disguise himself in front of someone in the Celestial Immortal Realm.

The only disguise he could pull off effectively was to take advantage of the fact that he could still be considered to be in the Domain Lord Realm as someone in the Dao Domain Lord Realm and disguise himself as someone in the Domain Lord Realm…
