Cultivating Disciples to Breakthrough

Chapter 1957  Unknown Intentions

Unaware of the fact that the information he had ended up sharing with Elder Song regarding when he expected his secluded cultivation finished, had spread throughout the Northern Central Region with the extra added information that he was planning on interfering directly in the large-scale conflict currently playing out in the Blue Sea Empire, Xuan Hao continued focusing on expanding his spiritual sea to the limit. Not paying any attention to what was happening outside his cultivation room outside of the occasional visits from his disciples.

After all, though he was in secluded cultivation, he wasn't focused on comprehending anything specific and was just focusing on expanding his spiritual sea with the help of Stardusk Essence. Giving him more than enough time to slow down his cultivation progress to clear up some doubts and questions his disciples might have.

But outside of his disciples, he didn't interact with anyone else. Meaning that, even though the information about someone from the sect stepping in to calm the situation in the Blue Sea Empire began to spread throughout the sect and most of the elders and disciples guessed it to be him who would be the one stepping forward from the sect, he didn't learn about. His disciples did not inform him about it because they didn't think too much about it and thought it was him who had arranged that kind of information to spread in preparation for potentially using the chaotic situation to properly establish the Star Shattering Sect in the mind of the major powers on the Northern Central Region.

As for Elder Song… Though he did think about informing him about the situation, he realized that it wouldn't make much of a difference, as even if he knew and the sect stepped forward to deny the claims being made, it wouldn't be able to stop the news from spreading and might even negatively impact the sect.

Instead of doing something that might damage the sect, he would much rather wait for Xuan Hao to finish his seclusion in peace before bringing the situation up with him after he came out. Even though, it was likely he would find out about the situation far faster than he would be able to reach him. At which point, he would most end up being dragged over to narrate what had happened, something he had long since learnt about from the few members of the neutral factions who had now confidently resumed trade with the Star Shattering Sect, amidst the chaos that their territory was engulfed in.

The one positive from the entire situation was that the supply line made up of the different smaller neutral factions was now able to operate smoothly without encountering any problem, something that made Elder Song unwilling to personally step forward and deny the words that had been spread by those neutral factions, as it turned out that knowledge of the Star Shattering Sect's bold plan to forcibly calm down the situation, was more than enough for any of those strong enough to target these neutral factions to actually do so.

Fearful that any move against the neutral factions that now seemed to be under the direct protection of the Star Shattering Sect in their eyes, would potentially result in them being swept up by the senior figure from the Star Shattering Sect when he or she appeared to calm the situation in the Blue Sea Empire.

For the neutral factions, this didn't just make continued trade with the Star Shattering Sect a simple matter that didn't require too much attention or effort but also benefited them when it came to interacting with some of the powerful cultivators who roamed through their territory.

Of course, along with the information spreading through the countless wandering cultivators and other cultivators gathered around the edge of the Blue Sea Empire to observe the battle between the two ancestors in the Land Creation Realm, the information also ended up drawing the attention of those involved in the conflict. Soon enough reaching the two ancestors locked in a deadly battle with each other…

No surprise, the one who felt the happiest about this development was undoubtedly the old ancestor of the Blue Sea Empire, as he understood that only he would benefit if all the fighting stopped.

"The Star Shattering Sect? That recent hidden ancient sect that emerged not long ago? It intends to interfere in the battle? Great!" For this reason, he could help smiling happily even amidst the constant attacks raining down on him from his opponent as he said with a small chuckle

Understanding full well that his opponent shouldn't be feeling happy after learning about the potential future involvement of the Star Shattering Sect. After all, if the fighting truly came to an end and the Blue Sea Empire was given time to recover, it would be a far greater threat to the Wei Empire.

Not just because there was a chance of the demonic cultivators targeting his empire after being unable to break through the Blue Sea Empire, but also because the Blue Sea Empire now had two Land Creation Realm cultivators backing it.

Although this wouldn't make much of a difference originally, with time, the Blue Sea Empire would undoubtedly stand in the superior position, something he couldn't allow-

BOOOM-!

And for this simple reason, the battle that had just been a few small harmless probes that both could deal with without expending too much effort.

But with a potential timeline suddenly appearing, the old ancestor from the Wei Empire became far more desperate in his attacks. No longer holding anything back as he went all out. Intent on ending the battle before this half year was up.

Similarly, the demonic cultivators also ended up learning about what the Star Shattering Sect was planning to do and placed far more strength into breaking through the defensive wall that had been formed by the two Land Creation Realm cultivators working together. Dispatching another two powerful demonic cultivators to force their way through and into the heart of the Blue Sea Empire.
