Cultivating Disciples to Breakthrough

Continuing to keep an eye on the situation on the stone platform after the being in the dark miasma had been suppressed, Xuan Hao was shocked to discover that the old man had begun to repair the part of the seal that had shattered.

Given the difference in strength between the old man and the seal itself, it should have been impossible for him to repair the seal. However, he seemed to have the help of yet another strange artifact that allowed him to borrow a power far beyond what he could wield at his current cultivation realm. Allowing him to freely manipulate and in turn repair the damaged part of the seal.

Even then, it was obvious that the old man had a rather extensive understanding of the Dao of Formations. Far superior to anyone he had ever seen before. If not, it would have been impossible for him to repair the damaged seal.

With this in mind, Xuan Hao decided to try and see if he could learn anything from observing the old man working on the terrifyingly powerful seal.

"Almost there…"

Unaware of Xuan Hao observing his work on the seal, the old man didn't pay attention to anything other than the dark miasma below him and the part of the seal that he was currently doing his best to repair in the limited time he had managed to buy for himself. Understanding very well that it would be impossible to touch, let alone repair the part of the seal that had been destroyed if the being in the dark miasma was attacking the seal.

Although it would be impossible for the being to do anything to him, it was more than capable of preventing anyone from repairing the part of the seal that had already been destroyed, it was also because of this that the old man had decided to use his strongest move at the start and forcibly suppress the being in the dark miasma. Hoping that he would be able to buy enough time to finish repairing the destroyed section of the seal.

ROOOOAR-!

Unfortunately for the old man, he didn't have time to finish recreating the destroyed part of the seal before an all too familiar roar echoed out beneath him.

"So fast! Did the other seals perhaps also weaken!?" Exclaiming in a somewhat surprised voice as he saw the being in the dark miasma reemerge only a short time after he had forced it down, the old man was forced to stop after only repairing half of the section that had been destroyed.

Boom-!

Not a second after he retracted from the damaged section of the seal, did the being hidden below violent crash into the newly created divine formation symbols-

Rumble-!

[Reward: Increase Comprehension of the Dao of Formations and Dao of Light]

"Huh?"

Reading through the new quest, Xuan Hao could not help tilting his head slightly in confusion. Not due to fact that he had seemingly already managed to complete half of the quest with his earlier visit to the seal in the Frozen Wasteland, but instead due to the fact that that the system hinted at the fact that the other seals were also located somewhere close to the Star Shattering Sect.

Not only that, but the reward from the system would also be able to directly increase his strength depending on what kind of comprehension it was talking about.

Ah! I can't let that old man leave without me!

Suddenly remembering the last part in the description of the quest, Xuan Hao brushed the system panel aside before rushing back out of the underground space. Intending to catch up to the old man before he had a chance to run away.

After all, at the current moment, the only way for him to find the remaining two seals mentioned by the system was for him to follow the old man as he seemed intent on using the last bit of divine blood, he had on him to try and strengthen these seals.

If he had to search for the two remaining seals on his own, he had no idea how long it would take. After all, he had not managed to find them yet… And even a seal that seemed to be randomly teleporting around the Frozen Wasteland was considered to be located close to the Star Shattering Sect. For all he knew, the other two seals might be located somewhere inside the Blue Sea Empire and still be considered close to the Star Shattering Sect in the eyes of the system.

Whoosh-!

With this in mind, Xuan Hao wasted no time as he rushed back out of the underground space before catching up with the old man who was seemingly flying in the direction of the Frozen Wasteland.

Don't tell me… Is he perhaps planning to visit the seal in the Frozen Wasteland first? But… He is far too weak to cross the formation I created-

Just as Xuan Hao was wondering how the old man would cross the formation, he had created to separate the Star Shattering Sect's territory from the Frozen Wasteland, the old man came to a stop hovering above the familiar Burning Mountain Range while focusing his attention towards a rather familiar location to Xuan hao before diving down towards without a second thought.

"This is…"

Seeing this, Xuan Hao hesitated for a short moment with a look of shock on his face before following after the old man…
