Cultivating Disciples to Breakthrough
chapter-1355

As Elder Song was busy with the implementation of the deacon position and changes to the existing core elder and grand elder position, Xuan Hao slowly opened his eyes with a frown on his face as he clearly sensed the changes in the Dao of Illusions that he had been trying to comprehend to the Perfection Realm.

Although it hadn't been that long since he broke through to the Large Success Realm in the Dao of Space and he had only recently begun to comprehend the Dao of Illusions. Trying to further his comprehension of the dao and strive towards the Perfection Realm, he had come to realize that it was far harder than he had expected to progress in the Dao of Illusions.

Even with his far higher comprehension compared to other people, he almost felt stuck without making any significant progress after spending months trying to comprehend it, something he wasn't used to and also something that made him stop what he was doing. Understanding that he would have to do something if he wanted to speed up his comprehension of the Dao of Illusions.

The only problem was that the only location he knew where he could do something like that was located in the Blue Sea Empire. After all, even though the Dao Enlightenment Monument was useful in helping those in the Domain Lord Realm and below in comprehending the Dao, it wasn't really useful when it came to comprehending the Dao of Illusions at its current level.

So, instead of continuing without making any progress in comprehending the Dao of Illusions, Xuan Hao had decided to stop what he was doing and was now thinking about whether or not to first try and comprehend some of the other Daos he planned on comprehending to the Large Success Realm before trying to comprehend one of his Daos to the Perfection Realm.

Even though this would make his soul a bit stronger and make it easier for him to comprehend something like the Dao of Illusions to the realm of Perfection easier, it would ultimately still take a long time without any outside assistance.

"Outside assistance… Something that can help me comprehend the Dao faster- Ah! The Second Star Peak!"

As he was thinking about what to do and how he could increase his comprehension speed of the different Daos he had managed to comprehend so far, Xuan Hao suddenly remembered the Second Star Peak that was covered in divine rocks filled with ice blue divine energy.

Even if it was somewhat dangerous, he still clearly remembered how absorbing that divine energy through the flame imprint had allowed him to comprehend the Dao of Ice… And even if he still had no real understanding about the flame imprint and the different phoenix feathers, he had found that were promptly absorbed by the flame imprint, he felt a bit more confident that he should be able to endure absorbing the blue divine energy now that his strength had increased.

At least, for now, it was the only thing Xuan Hao could think of that would be able to help increase his comprehension speed without needing him to leave the sect and go to somewhere far away like the Blue Sea Empire.

In any case, he would be heading to the Blue Sea Empire when he took Xuan Gui there in the future to cause chaos.

When that time came, he could always set aside some time to check out on the secret realm that allowed him to comprehend the Dao of Illusions to the Large Success Realm and also see if those illusory beasts were still around.

Given his current strength and his comprehension of the Dao of Space, he didn't really feel that fearful of getting caught by the Celestial Immortals of the Blue Sea Empire nor being trapped inside the secret realm again. Especially considering that he had managed to learn the long-distance teleportation over the past few months and would be more than capable of escaping from the illusory beast's secret realm even if he was trapped inside it again.

Of course, that was on the premise that the place hadn't been destroyed already by the Blue Sea Empire, who would have responded to escape of the illusory beasts.

Thinking this to himself, Xuan Hao shook his head before standing up and stretching his limbs for the first time in a little over a week of having remained in the same position trying to comprehend the Dao of Illusions without much success.

"Guess I will go and pay a visit to the Second Star Peak and- Hm?"

About to leave and head towards the Second Star Peak to try and see if he could use the divine stones filled with blue divine energy there to comprehend the Dao of Ice, Xuan Hao suddenly came to a stop as he noticed that someone had contacted him a few days earlier.

Unfortunately, he had been far too focused on his comprehension of the Dao of Illusions to notice it and only now saw it.

"Elder Song? Hm? Changes to the Grand Elder and Core Elder position? Ancestor position- Ah! Don't tell… He wants me to take on the ancestor position!? I'm not that old!"

Reading through the message that Elder Song had sent him, Xuan Hao was at first nodding his head in approval when he read through the changes to the Grand Elder and Core Elder positions, as he could see just how useful and good for the sect these changes were.

However, when he reached the part about the new ancestor position and saw the Dao Seed Realm requirement, he instantly thought Elder Song was trying to hint at him to take on the ancestor position. After all, in the eyes of Elder Song and the rest of the sect's elders, his current realm was the Dao Seed Realm, similar to Pei Yang.

Only after he read a bit more into why the requirement was the Dao Seed Realm did he realize that this wasn't directly targeted at him.

Although his age was close to 50 at this point in time and he could personally feel himself growing older, he didn't feel old enough to be called an ancestor. Especially considering his appearance hadn't changed and he still looked to be in his late twenties to early thirties.

"Ancestor… Maybe in another fifty- no hundred years, I might consider it…" Shaking his head as he muttered this to himself, Xuan Hao put away his communication talisman as he made his way out of his room towards the Second Star Peak.

Although there was put a limit of 10 on the Grand Elder position, it wouldn't really affect him, as there wasn't really anyone in the sect who would be able to threaten his position as a core elder.

The only reason why he thought that he might have to take on the ancestor position at some point in the future was because he understood that the elders in the sect wouldn't be happy if he continued to use his overwhelming strength to keep one of these limited positions indefinitely, as that would essentially make it like there was only 9 Grand Elder positions instead of 10.

Of course, he also thought about another solution to the problem, which was to use his influence and strength in the Star Shattering Sect to have Elder Song and Feng Chen make a special position for him that didn't end up with him being referred to an ancestor that was generally reserved for those ancient fossils of major powers who had been around for tens of thousands of years.

In the end, Xuan Hao didn't really care too much about it, as it was only a title in the sect so to speak. No matter what title he had, it wouldn't really change his status in the sect, as he would still be the strongest existence in the sect.

So, as he already managed to throw the recent changes to the sect's new hierarchal structure to the back of his mind, Xuan Hao arrived back at the Second Star Peak for the first time in years. Having not returned to investigate the divine stones filled with blue divine energy since the last time he had been scared off by the terrifying power contained inside the divine energy.

Even though his strength had increased several times since then, the power inside the divine stones was still far beyond anything he had encountered so far and even now, he was still uncertain whether or not it was a correct choice for him to try and absorb more of the strange blue divine energy to further his understanding of the Dao of ice.

No matter how useful it would be for his comprehension of the Dao of Ice, it still didn't change the fact that it was something dangerous that came with certain risk. Even more so after his understanding of the terrifying power of gods and how strong they were had deepened, as even the weakest god should stand above the Profound Immortal Realm.
