Cultivating Disciples to Breakthrough

Chapter 1358  Increase in Strength

As the 18 layers around his dao seed had finished stabilizing and Xuan Hao was starting to relax, the layers suddenly seemed to expand, as the dao seed inside his dantian began growing in size before it began showing signs of sprouting into a dao lotus at any moment. Having more than doubled in size compared to before.

However, the thing that shocked Xuan Hao about this change was not the fact that the dao seed had formally entered the state of half blooming. Symbolizing that he had reached a level comparable to someone at the Middle Stage of the Dao Seed Realm, but instead the fact that he could clearly feel the power of his soul being elevated to a level far beyond what it had been before.

Taking a few seconds to calm down from the sudden change that had taken place inside his dantian, Xuan Hao quickly realized why the strength of his soul had suddenly undergone a major change following the growth of the dao seed.

The dao seed was a part of his soul at this point in time and as the dao seed became stronger, so would his soul. Increasing not only the strength of his soul, but more importantly also strengthening his comprehension in the process. Making it easier for him to comprehend the more difficult Daos like the Dao of Illusions and the Dao of Space that he found too difficult to progress in beforehand.

As he realized this, Xuan Hao could not help feeling like he had gained a deeper understanding of the Dao Seed Realm, while at the same time increasing his confidence in reaching the Peak of the Dao Domain Lord Realm in the future.

After all, even if his current increased comprehension after his soul had been strengthened wasn't enough, he should still be able to reach the next stage of the Dao Seed Realm and strengthen his soul again without having to worry about having to comprehend one of his Daos to the Perfection Realm.

And… Given how much he felt his comprehension had increased he felt confident in doing so within the span of a few years.

Part of him even felt confident that he might be able to promote the Dao of Ice to the Perfection Realm if he could make use of the blue divine energy contained inside the rocks on the Second Star Peak.

The only problem with this was that the flame imprint between his brows had already been filled to the brim and would take some time to digest the already absorbed divine energy before he could try and go back to the Second Star Peak again.

Even then, it should at most take a few years from what Xuan Hao could sense from the mysterious space hidden inside the flame imprint. During which he could focus on some of the other Daos he had been planning to promote to the Large Success Realm.

Among these Daos, the ones that ended up drawing the most attention being the Dao of Blacksmithing and the Dao of Alchemy, as he really wanted to avoid getting surpassed by his disciples again and wanted to stay ahead of them before the system ended up coming after him for being surpassed by his disciples again.

Outside of that, Xuan Hao also felt like increasing his comprehension of these two Daos would give him a good opportunity to spend some time with Qing Yi, Bai Ning and Chun Hua, who had taken an interest to alchemy over the past few months and was currently studying it under the guidance of Qing Yi.

As for his two remaining disciples… Chu Yang was currently out on an adventure and wouldn't be returning to the sect for the foreseeable future, while Mui was busy playing together with her new best friend.

Speaking of Mui and her new best friend, Song Jia, Xuan Hao did hear about what they were up to and wanted to help out Elder Song in case Mui ended up being a bad influence on his granddaughter, but he was told that it was fine and told that it was fine given that the two weren't really causing any harm.

On the other hand, it seemed like the beneficial things created by Mui increased in the companionship of Song Jia, as the two had somehow managed to create some kind of strange artifact that had ended up merging together with Elder Song's soul. Solving the inherent problem that had been left behind by the demonic techniques he had used in the past.

It was also because of this that Elder Song wasn't that hard on the two of them and didn't want to separate them, as they had helped him overcome the one thing that would have stopped him from breaking through to the Domain Lord Realm in the future after reaching the Peak of the Nascent Soul Realm.

Not just Elder Song, but it seemed like several of the elders of the sect were helped out by the two troublemakers, as they created an almost impenetrable defense line for them whenever they ended up causing any kind of trouble inside the sect.

Hearing about this, Xuan Hao had no idea what to say, as he wondered if this was something that had been done intentionally by his little disciple or if it was just a coincidence.

No matter what it was, Xuan Hao decided that it would probably be for the best that he didn't interfere with what this little disciple of his was up to. Especially because he learnt that three of the seven elders who had managed to break through to the Domain Lord Realm during his seclusion on the Second Star Peak was because of the help that this little disciple had seemingly unintentionally given them.

Unknowingly, during his short two-month long seclusion, his youngest disciple had somehow grown into a powerhouse inside the sect with several Domain Lord Realm elders supporting her from behind. Truly not something he had expected to happen when he had left for the Second Star Peak.

However, given that it had helped increase the strength of the sect and there wasn't any harm done outside of one time where Mui and Song Jia had created some kind of slime pit that caused people falling into it to get drunk if their cultivation was below the Domain Lord realm, Xuan Hao took the same stance as Elder Song and decided to support the two troublemakers.

"Haaa… I wonder what will happen when she ends up reaching the Domain Lord Realm in the future…" Muttering this as he shook his head, Xuan Hao closed his eyes as he began focusing his attention on comprehending the Dao of Alchemy.

Although the Dao of Alchemy was best comprehended through practice, similar to the Dao of Blacksmithing, Xuan Hao intended to first test out how strong his comprehension had become after his recent increase in strength… And the result was rather shocking, as he felt his comprehension speed of the Dao of Alchemy having almost doubled when compared to before.

Guess I should also check out my status to see if my strength managed to surpass the Middle Stage of the Dao Seed Realm… n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

Narrowing both his eyes as he thought this to himself, Xuan Hao also clearly felt that his strength had increased by a lot following the transformation of his dao seed, thus causing him to turn his attention towards his status…

Making him feel a bit more confident in case the sect ended up being targeted by the Blue Sea Empire or demonic cultivators in the future.

After all, the Late Stage of the Dao Seed Realm was beyond the limits of the Earth Immortal Realm widely known throughout the Ewaria Continent and only someone in the Celestial Immortal Realm would be capable of threatening him at this point in time.

Not to mention, using the Dao of Space to his advantage, he might even be able to contend with someone in the Celestial Immortal Realm at this point in time. Possibly ensuring that the Star Shattering Sect wouldn't be seen as an easy target by any of the major powers on the continent.
