Chapter 1532  Realization

Given that he had already displayed his strength and in turn made Qin Hao fully convinced of what he told him about the Star Shattering Sect, it didn't take nearly as much to convince him to become an elder of the Star Shattering Sect as he had expected. Not just that, but after learning about the Profound Immortal Realm and the Dao Seed Realm, Qin Hao couldn't wait to leave for the Star Shattering Sect. Wanting to learn about the Dao Seed Realm specifically as fast as possible.

After all, as someone who had believed that he was already close to the peak of his realm. Finding out that he was in fact only in the Early Stage of the realm was a shocking revelation. Especially learning about the Profound Immortal Realm that directly seemed like a realm above that of the Celestial Immortal Realm.

Considering that the Star Shattering Sect already had a lot of information on the Dao Seed Realm and Pei Yang could also serve as a teacher on the Dao Seed Realm with all the information he had managed to absorb regarding the realm since becoming an elder of the sect, Xuan Hao didn't intend to stop Qin Hao from going to the Star Shattering Sect immediately.

On the contrary, he happily encouraged him to leave for the sect immediately, as another Dao Seed Realm cultivator joining the sect would be beneficial to the sect's younger generation and the elders who were now starting to have their average cultivation base transition from the Nascent Soul Realm to the Domain Lord Realm.

Because of this, after another half hour of him explaining the situation of the sect and what he could expect, Xuan Hao left the restaurant together with Qin Hao before the two of them parted ways with each other. One continued his search for new sect elders, while the second began preparing to make the difficult journey from the Eastern Central Region to the Northern Central Region.

Unlike Xuan Hao who could cross this kind of distance in a relatively short period of time because of his comprehension of the Dao of Space, the situation was not like that for someone like Qin Hao.

Without comprehending the Dao of Space, even someone in the Dao Seed Realm would take a long time to travel to another central region.

Not to mention, they would also have to consider the dangers they might encounter along the way. From possible attacks from other cultivators to dangerous locations that could shift their borders to make formerly safe paths deadly, one would have to consider countless things when travelling across long distances even if one had reached the Dao Seed Realm and was considered among the strongest cultivators on the continent outside of the Celestial Immortals.

…

At the gate that Xuan Hao had entered the city through, Jing was currently standing together with a large group of formation master's that she had gathered to investigate the error that had occurred in the formation not long ago.

"

However, after two sleepless days of searching through the formation symbols connected to the area they were currently inside of, they didn't find anything, causing the other formation master to start wondering if there really was something wrong with the formation in the first place.

"This won't work… We aren't making any progress…" Muttering this to herself as she looked out over the different formation masters working together to try and deduce what had happened to the formation and try to recreate the problem, Jing could not help feeling a bit helpless as she wasn't any closer to finding out more of the problem that had occurred compared to when she had first gathered the group of formation masters to help her out.

Although this was expected to some extent due to their low comprehension of the Dao of Formations compared to herself, she wanted to try and take advantage of the fact that everyone comprehended the Dao in a different way to potentially find a clue on what had happened to the formation through sheer brute force.

"Senior! I think I found something!"

Just as she was about to give up on continuing to try and use numbers to make up for the lack of a formation master stronger than herself, one of the formation masters helping her out came running with an excited expression on his face while at the same time calling out to her loud enough for the surrounding people to also hear him.

Even if the person in question was merely a Domain Lord Realm cultivator who had picked up the art of formations, as a side hobby and was still in the Artisan Realm, Jing still turned to face him seriously when she heard him calling out to her.

No matter how low the chances of this little Artisan Realm Formation Master was of being accurate, she didn't really have anywhere else to turn with everyone else present, failing to notice anything.

In her mind, she was already starting to believe that the Domain Lord Realm cultivator had comprehended some kind of unique path in the Dao of Formation that had allowed him to see through what she and the rest could not and grasp the source of the problem.

Causing her to directly motion for the formation master to move over and explain in detail about what he had found so she could take a closer look at it herself.

"Show me, talk while we walk."

"O-Okay. F-first, I looked at the place where the problem occurred and tried checking like everyone else did. In turn, I found nothing out of the ordinary and so decided to look more into the person you mentioned as a possible cause of the problem with the formation.

After getting a sample of qi from that person and comparing it with the qi that was isolated by the formation from when the problem happened, I realized something odd about the strength of the qi. In both cases, the quality of the qi was far higher than what would be possible by someone in the Domain Lord Realm. Leading me to believe that the problem itself isn't from the formation but is instead with the Domain Lord Realm cultivator."

"That is- Let me see!" Hearing what the formation master said as they arrived at the location where a tiny bit of Xuan Hao's qi had been stored when he entered the city, Jing didn't waste any time as she started using her divine sense to investigate it in far more detail compared to when she had first retrieved it from the register that the formation had established to record and remember everyone who entered the city.

However, as she really began to dwell into the tiny bit of qi that had been taken away and stored by the formation, she felt a shiver run down her spine. Realizing that the quality of the qi was not just above that of someone in the Domain Lord Realm, but even her, in the Earth Immortal Realm (Dao Seed Realm), felt a clear sense of fear when trying to dwell into the tiny bit of qi.

Clearly indicating that the person this qi belonged to was someone far stronger than herself.

But… This tiny bit of qi was supposed to belong to someone in the Domain Lord Realm, not someone stronger than her. After all, for someone to be stronger than her to the point where they would make her feel a sense of fear, they would at least have to be at the Pinnacle of the Earth Immortal Realm, the Half Bloom Stage, close to entering the Celestial Immortal Realm.

No matter how she looked at it, the Xuan Hao she remembered observing was not someone at the Pinnacle of the Earth Immortal Realm and behaved exactly like she expected from someone in the Domain Lord Realm.

"If he was pretending when I was observing him…" Realizing the fact that she might have already been noticed by the other party and that he might very well know she had been observing him, Jing couldn't help feeling a shiver run down her spine.

The innocent Domain Lord Realm cultivator image she had originally created of Xuan Hao after observing him on her own for a few hours without finding any problems instantly collapsed, as a terrifying and calculative cultivator far stronger than herself replaced her internal image of him.

No, I can't waste any more time, I must inform Guardian Zhang about the situation! Who knows what plans that person has, even more so given that he is already aware of the fact that I have been keeping an eye on him!

Feeling herself starting to panic as she realized just how serious the situation was, Jing forgot to use her communication talisman, as she began rushing back in the direction of the estate located at the center of the city. Intending to inform Guardian Zhang about the situation so he could act and deal with the situation that was clearly far beyond something she could handle. Especially given that the other party seemed to have some way of ignoring the guardian formation.
