Cultivating Disciples to Breakthrough
chapter-1403

Leaving the Star Shattering Sect, Xuan Hao soon arrived at the Iron Sky Kingdom for the first time in a long time. Finding himself rather surprised at the developments of the kingdom since it had become part of the Star Shattering Sect, as it was obvious at a glance that the formation guarding the kingdom had been upgraded after Yi Min had broken through to the Soul Ascension Realm.

At the current level of the formation, it wouldn't be surprising if Yi Min would be able to hold off someone at the Peak of the Soul Ascension Realm. Probably even resisting someone at the Earlier Stages of the Dao Seed realm for a period of time. Showing that outside of her Dao of Blacksmithing improving by a lot since her breakthrough to the Soul Ascension Realm and visit to the Blue Shore Kingdom, her Dao of Formations had also improved by a lot.

Just from a simple glance, Xuan Hao was certain that she should have at least managed to reach the Elementary Realm in the Dao of Formations- Maybe even the Small Success Realm.

But… For now, he didn't really have time to slowly investigate the formation in place to protect the Iron Sky Kingdom and instead had to focus his attention on the rabbit demon beast that he almost immediately noticed lazing around inside one of the large palaces located at the core of the Iron Sky Kingdom's capital city.

Even from a glance, it was obvious that the rabbit demon beast was enjoying its stay in the Iron Sky Kingdom quite a bit. Even using the human servant that it had recruited to serve it spirit stones and other delicacies that it had found during its stay in the Iron Sky Kingdom.

Looking at the situation outside of the palace where the rabbit demon beast had settled down, Xuan Hao could not help smiling somewhat wryly to himself, as he noticed that the people who should be Yi Min's subordinates had all retreated far away from the palace where the rabbit demon beast was located and none of them dared to go anywhere close to it.

The ones in charge of delivering things for the rabbit demon beast to eat were even fighting among themselves for a chance to avoid interacting with the rabbit demon beast.

Although his first thought was that the rabbit demon beast had done something like beating up these people, thus causing them to fear it and not dare approach it, he soon found out that the reason for them not wanting to get anywhere near the rabbit demon beast was because it would force them to continue gathering spirit stones and other delicacies for it.

This was not the normal kind where the servant would just leave the palace to request for more food and spirit stones, but was instead the rabbit demon beast deciding to take on these servants as its own people and train them ruthlessly so they could go out into the world to gather spiritual herbs or other delicious things for it to eat.

At this point in time, there were already more than twenty such people who had been turned into the rabbit demon beast's people. Now scouring the surroundings for spirit stones and other delicious food to bring back to the rabbit demon beast.

Learning about this, Xuan Hao could not help feeling a bit speechless, as he wondered whether or not the rabbit demon beast really thought of itself as the de facto ruler of the Iron Sky Kingdom, but in the end, there was not much he could do about it, as those people had somehow been convinced to become followers of the rabbit demon beast. Increasing the overall strength of the rabbit demon beast and the number of people under it.

"Guess it will be quite a shock for it to get send away to spy on some demonic cultivator…" Chuckling silently to himself as he turned to glance towards the direction of the rabbit demon beast, Xuan Hao didn't waste any time before barging into the newly constructed throne room that the rabbit demon beast had created for itself while it had been in the Iron Sky Kingdom.

Thump-!

Squeak!?

Landing on the marble floor in front of the now shocked rabbit demon beast who didn't expect its master to suddenly show up in front of it all of a sudden, Xuan Hao could not help showing a somewhat evil smirk as he stared at the panicked and surprised rabbit demon beast.

"Hehe, you are coming with me~!"

Squeak? Squeeeaaaaak-!

Whoosh-!

And before the rabbit demon beast had any time to react, he flew forward and grabbed it before leaving the recently constructed throne room. Not giving it any chance to refuse or fight back, as he used, he drifting cloud steps at their full strength to carry the rabbit demon beast to the border of the Star Shattering Sect where the child of the Demon King of the Frozen Wastelands had been located before dropping it off.

Of course, during the journey that lasted for a few minutes, he made sure to explain its job and what it would be doing. Making sure that it understood the importance of not attacking the demonic cultivator that it was spying on.

Not because he felt that the rabbit demon beast would in any way be weaker than the True Demon Realm demonic cultivator, but because he understood that the defensive measure put in place on the True Demon Realm demonic cultivator by the Demon King of the Frozen Wastelands would in no way be anything that the rabbit demon beast could deal with.

Even he himself felt that it would be impossible to deal with whatever security measures that the Demon King of the Frozen Wastelands had left on this child of his. Especially so considering that he doubted that the protective talisman was the only thing protecting that demonic cultivator. Believing that there should definitely be something similar to the talismans that he left with his disciples.

Not to mention, attacking that demonic cultivator would definitely end up drawing unwanted attention to the Star Shattering Sect, something that Xuan Hao wanted to avoid at all costs and also the reason why he placed the rabbit demon beast in charge of spying on the demonic cultivator.

So, without wasting any time, Xuan Hao turned and left shortly after leaving the rabbit demon beast at the borders of the Star Shattering Sect. Wanting the demonic cultivator to just think a powerful expert from the Blue Sea Empire happened to be passing by. Not something unusual with the current state of things and unlikely to make that demonic cultivator think anything was off.

…

Squeak…?

Being suddenly left at the border of the Star Shattering Sect with a mission to spy on a demonic cultivator that it had no idea about and where it was located nor how it looked, the rabbit demon beast could not help tilting its head with a somewhat confused expression on its face, as it began wondering what to do now.

Although it wanted nothing more than to turn back and return to its little empire and enjoy itself like it had been doing for the past few months, it also understood that there was no way to refuse a mission given by its master. Especially so considering that its master had promised it an extremely generous reward after finishing the mission, something that the rabbit demon beast couldn't refuse no matter how much it might want to do so and that was… Top Grade Spirit Stones!

Top Grade Spirit Stones, to demon beasts at the Soul Ascension Realm, were incredibly helpful for growing their strength… And given that the rabbit demon beast had already solidified its cultivation base at the Fifth Tribulation of the Soul Ascension Realm with all of the spirit stones and other delicious things it had eaten during its time watching over the Iron Sky Kingdom, these Top Grade Spirit Stones might be enough fort it to break through to the Sixth Tribulation of the Soul Ascension Realm and stand at the Peak of the Soul Ascension Realm.

Even if the rabbit demon beast had slowly settled into a rather lazy daily life since being put in charge of guarding the Iron Sky Kingdom, its ultimate goal for doing so was still for it to continue growing its strength.

If not for the generous reward that it had been offered in return for helping guard the Iron Sky Kingdom, there was no way it would do so no matter how it was pampered by the servants of the palace.

Squeak!

With that in mind, the rabbit demon beast showed a determined expression on its face before it jumped forward in the direction of the Frozen Wastelands.

Even knowing the possible danger involved, it still wanted to do it for the rewards. Not to mention, it felt confident in escaping if something went wrong. After all, its opponent was only someone in the True Demon Realm.

Even if it was someone in the Demon Lord Realm, the rabbit demon beast felt that it would be able to escape from them with its speed!
