Cultivating Disciples to Breakthrough
chapter-223

The personal quarters of the Nascent Soul Realm Expert were not located at the centre of the underground city but was instead located in a small mansion just outside of it.

Xuan Hao followed behind the Nascent Soul Realm Expert while remembering to keep his distance as he floated a few dozen meters above the mansion. Observing any movements made by the Nascent Soul Realm Expert inside.

"Looks like he is just cultivating…" Watching as the Nascent Soul Realm Expert sat down an meditated through one of the windows in the mansion Xuan Hao knew that he would not find out much more from just following behind him and instead decided to enter the mansion himself and see if he could find anything about the organisation behind him or the use of the blue crystals that they had mined.

Whoosh~

Like a gentle breeze passing by, the guard standing outside the entrance of the mansion didn't notice Xuan Hao as he entered without any difficulty at all.

"A formation…?" Arriving at the entrance to the room where the Nascent Soul Realm Expert was cultivating, Xuan Hao saw a formation covering the entire room as he gave up on sneaking into the room.

No matter how concealed he was with the help of his pseudo sword domain, he would still be discovered if he tried passing through the formation forcefully.

With this in mind, Xuan Hao decided to explore the rest of the mansion and see if he could find any important documents or something along that line.

Like this, Xuan Hao began reading through anything he could find. Aided by his divine sense, making it easier for him to go through the different documents and books inside of the mansion in no time at all.

BOOM!

"Hm?" Just as Xuan Hao had found a book about the blue crystals and was absorbed in reading it, a large explosion occurred in the direction of the entrance as two auras at the Nascent Soul Realm appeared.

"Someone broke the formation hiding the entrance and forcefully entered this place… Perhaps the people from the Spring Flower Sect arrived earlier than expected?" Smiling to himself as looked in the direction of the entrance, Xuan Hao decided not to kill the Nascent Soul Realm Expert and instead decided to use him to see how strong the people from the Spring Flower Sect were.

"WHO DARES!?" At the same time that Xuan Hao put the book about blue crystals away and prepared to watch a good show, a loud roar shook the entire underground base as Xuan Hao turned in the direction of the room where the Nascent Soul Realm Expert was meditating earlier on.

By this point, a dense killing intent could be felt leaking out from the room as the person had already stopped meditating as he was the one who roared angrily earlier.

The Nascent Soul Realm Expert did not stay like this for long as he soon rushed out of the room in the direction of the entrance. Ready to confront the two people who just destroyed the concealment formation at the entrance and rudely let themselves in.

…

"This should be the location of the base… Are you ready Xuefeng?" Glancing over in the direction of a place located close to the entrance of the forest on the outskirts of the city with dangerous glint in her eyes, Elder Meng turned to look at Xuefeng standing next to her before she asked in a gentle voice.

"Yes, Big Sister Meng!" Filled with excitement as she looked forward to fighting the Nascent Soul Realm cultivator that had caused trouble and was planning to create even more trouble inside the Spring Flower Sect's territory, Xuefeng could not help but become excited when she thought of her first real fight against another Nascent Soul Realm Expert.

"Great! Remember what I said earlier on. Retreat if it gets too dangerous for you."

"Yes~"

Hearing her response, Elder Meng no longer delayed as she gathered her qi together in the form of a giant green ball that she proceeds to throw directly onto the entrance of the hidden base. Directly destroying the concealment formation in the process.

BOOM!

Not waiting for even a moment after seeing the entrance as both of them rushed down into the underground base, both of them showed a shocked expression when they saw the small underground city in front of them.

They did not expect for there to be such a large city underground! Let alone so many people seemingly working to transport different things out through another tunnel in the distance.

"WHO DARES!" It was at this moment both of them heard a loud roar coming from a mansion located just outside the city as a figure soon rushed out from the mansion and headed towards them full of killing intent.

"Xuefeng, be careful! This guy is at the fourth stage of the Nascent Soul Realm!" Sensing the cultivation of the person who was rushing over to meet them surrounded by an almost suffocating killing intent, Elder Meng narrowed her eyes dangerously as she warned Xuefeng before taking out a small handheld folding fan with a beautiful flower pattern engraved on it.

Whoosh~

Waving the small handheld folding fan, a large amount of ice qi began to gather before quickly forming a small vortex of ice qi that quickly flew towards the incoming Nascent Soul Realm cultivator.

Freezing a few unfortunate miners and transports on the way as they were directly frozen to death as the ice qi vortex approached before having their bodies ripped apart by the violent ice qi vortex as it passed by their frozen bodies.

"Hmph!"

Seeing the ice vortex approaching him, the Nascent Soul Realm cultivator did not shrink in the slightest and large saber appeared in his hand before he swung down towards the incoming ice vortex.

Whoosh! Boom!

The attack sent out by the saber quickly collided with the ice vortex as both attacks cancelled each other out. Leaving behind only a frozen path of shattered bodies behind where the ice vortex passed through.

"You should be the so-called Saber Lord who helped attack the Seven Fates Sect a few weeks ago! Are your three friends not coming to help you? Sword Lord, Spear Lord and Bow Lord…? Quite the unique names you guys have…" Watching as the Saber Lord had stopped after blocking her attack, Elder Meng called out in an attempt to see if she could get more information on the other three that were also hiding inside the Spring Flower Sect's territory.

After all, if anyone of those three were here as well, it would be quite dangerous given that the Saber Lord in front of her was at the same cultivation realm as herself…

"Hmph! Think I am more than enough to deal with you and that brat over there!" Sneering full of disdain as he said this, the Saber Lord charged forward as he launched another attack towards Elder Meng. Completely ignoring Xuefeng.

"Who's a brat!?" Clearly offended by how she was completely disregarded by the Saber Lord as he attacked her big sister in front of her, Xuefeng took out her own weapon in the form of a giant hammer that was easily bigger than her and slammed down towards the Saber Lord with all her might.

The Saber Lord saw a giant hammer suddenly appear out of the blue as he had a confused look on his face before quickly stopping his attack on Elder Meng and defend against the giant hammer.

Bang!

The giant hammer collided with the saber of the Saber Lord as he barely managed to push the aggressive little girl back before suddenly discovering a giant cluster of ice spikes flying towards him from the side.

Puchi~

The sound of flesh being pierced could be heard as the Saber Lord retreated with one of the ice spikes directly lodged into his right leg.

"Hah… I didn't expect you to take advantage and attack me while dealing with the little girl! Hmph, looks like I will have to be a little more serious when fighting both of you!" Arrogantly pulling out the ice spike lodged in his right leg, the Saber Lord once again took a stance as he prepared to attack both of them.

"…"

Is this guy's brain malfunctioning or something…?

Staring at the large amount of blood flowing out of the wound of his leg along with his haggard expression, Elder Meng began doubting whether the person in front of them was truly someone in the fourth stage of the Nascent Soul Realm…

"Hah… Xuefeng, you can fight him alone! I will come and help if something happens!" Looking over to Xuefeng and informing her of this, Elder Meng suddenly felt like it was a good idea to have Xuefeng come along with her.

If not, how could she find such a good training partner willing to fight for her without putting her in too much danger?

…

"Somethings wrong with that guy…" At the same time, Xuan Hao was observing the fight as he felt something was wrong with the qi that the Saber Lord had used earlier on to block the ice vortex attack of Elder Meng.

No matter how weak a fourth stage Nascent Soul Realm Expert was, he should never end up like this after just clashing with Elder Meng and Xuefeng a few times…

"How sad…" Listening in on what Elder Meng was saying to Xuefeng, Xuan Hao could not help but feel a bit bad for the Saber Lord as he was designated to become a training dummy for Xuefeng to help familiarize herself with fighting someone in the Nascent Soul Realm.

"But… Maybe I can use this method in the future as well…"
