Cultivating Disciples to Breakthrough-Novel

Chapter 1146  New Barrier

"Pay the little gathering a- Ah!" Realizing what Xuan Hao was saying, Yi Min froze for a short moment before looking towards the gathering of demonic cultivators with a sense of pity in her eyes.

Although the three True Demon Realm demonic cultivators were far too strong for her to deal with, she understood that they were no match for Xuan Hao. After all, she had already seen him easily deal with three Soul Ascension Realm cultivators in the past. Not to mention, if she could improve her strength all the way to the Third Tribulation of the Soul Ascension Realm over the past two years, Xuan Hao would undoubtedly also be able to increase his strength.

Whoosh~

As she thought about this, she suddenly felt the space around them twisting before both of them were in the air above the group of demonic cultivators. Even when directly above the three powerful demonic cultivators who should have easily noticed someone appearing above them, none of the demonic cultivators had noticed her or Xuan Hao floating in the air a few hundred meters above them.

Rumble~!

Before she even had the time to think about what Xuan Hao was planning to do, she suddenly saw a giant sword made of ice manifesting in the air above the group of demonic cultivators. Even when it was not pointed at her, she could still not stop a shiver from running down her spine when seeing this sword.

Although she had no idea how strong it was, she was certain that she would not be able to defend against the sword…

"Wh-what is that!?"

"A Sword…?"

"Did someone from the core region perhaps show up?!"

Given that Xuan Hao didn't make any effort in trying to hide the giant ice sword now hovering in the air above the group of demonic cultivators, it did not take long before all of them fearfully turned to look up at the ice sword that had seemingly appeared out of thin air above them. All of them trying to figure out where the ice sword had appeared from and if they had ended up encountering a powerful expert from the core region of the continent.

After all, as the situation in the Frozen Wasteland grew more chaotic and the number of demonic cultivators escaping from the Frozen Wastelands increased with each year, experts from the core region of the continent had already begun to appear around the borders of the Frozen Wasteland to ensure that the demonic cultivators didn't end up expanding what could be considered the territory of demonic cultivators while escaping from the Frozen Wastelands.

As all of the weaker demonic cultivators thought about possibly having run into a powerful cultivator from the core region, they could not help looking towards the three True Demon Realm cultivators. Considering the difference in strength, the only ones that had the strength to face the experts from the core region of the continent were these three… Unfortunately, the three True Demon Realm Experts were in no state to help the rest of the demonic cultivators as they also looked up at the ice sword hanging in the sky above them filled with fear.

"This power- A Demon Lord!? Impossible! why would such an existence come to this remote part of the Frozen Wasteland!?"

"Not a Demon Lord, it's an Earth Immortal…"

"Does that change anything?!"

As the three True Demon Realm demonic cultivators nervously exchanged a few glances with each other, they realized that there was no way for them to escape from their current situation. Even if they were at the peak of the True Demon Realm, there was no way for them to escape from the sword hovering in the air above them.

In a sense, the only reason why they had managed to stay alive so far was because the master of the sword had yet to make a move.

"""…"""

As the situation persisted like this for a little over half a minute without the sword above them moving, the demonic cultivators could not help growing suspicious.

Is the master of the sword perhaps intending to spare us?

The moment this thought appeared among the demonic cultivators, it soon spread like wildfire before a few of the demonic cultivators became brave enough to take the chance to try and escape in the opposite direction of the Azure Sky Kingdom-

Whoosh~

However, before they had a chance to take more than a few steps, the giant ice sword hovering in the air above them emitted an almost indistinguishable hum before it descended towards them. Giving them no time to react before the blade stabbed into the ground.

RUMBLE-!

As the giant ice sword more than a thousand meters in length plunged into the frozen ground, a strange resonance occurred between the natural yin qi present in the Frozen Wasteland and the sword. Triggering a cataclysmic release of frigid energy that instantly killed all the demonic cultivators expect the three in the True Demon Realm, who barely managed to survive by forcibly burning the lifespan.

Boom! Boom! Boom! Thɪs chapter is updated by ɴo(v)elꜰɪre.ɴet

Following the cataclysmic event that seemed to engulf the entire Frozen Wasteland in the eyes of the three barely alive demonic cultivators, they watched in horror as an ethereal glow emanated from the sword stabbed into the frozen ground.

Even if they had managed to survive the first part of the attack just now, they had a feeling that the sword itself was not aimed at them, but something different… And as the air around the sword began to crystallize, this feeling only ended up growing more intense.

…

"Hm? Those three actually managed to survive…? Indeed, the vitality of demonic cultivators is far above that of normal cultivators…" Muttering this to himself as he glanced down at the three barely alive demonic cultivators, Xuan Hao could not help narrowing his eyes for a brief moment before focusing his attention back on the ice sword now embedded in the frozen ground.

The reason why he hadn't directly used the ice sword to kill the demonic cultivators was because the sword's primary focus was not to kill the demonic cultivators, it was to create a new barrier between the Frozen Wasteland and the Azure Sky Kingdom.

Now that his strength had increased, he not only wanted the barrier to cover the border between the Azure Sky Kingdom and the Frozen Wasteland, but also wanted it to protect the kingdoms located beside the Azure Sky Kingdom. After all, quite a few of these kingdoms had already become part of the Star Shattering Sect and already needed quite a bit of help to deal with the constant influx of demonic cultivators from the Frozen Wastelands.

RUUUMBBLEEE-!

In response to Xuan Hao's will, the sword shone with an even more terrifying might as it became the focal point for the frigid yin qi of the Frozen Wasteland to gather towards, transforming the immediate vicinity into a chaotic tempest that would freeze anyone below the Earth Immortal Realm to death in an instant, a fate that soon caught up with the three demonic cultivators unfortunate enough to be close to the center of this tempest.

Even if demonic cultivators cultivated yin qi and had a far higher resistance than normal, they had no ability to resist the terrifying frigid yin qi that gathered around the ice sword in their current state…

"Aaaah-!"

Letting out a painful scream one after the other, the three demonic cultivators perished in quick succession. However, the frozen storm didn't subside following their death and instead only increased in intensity as it continued to grow in size under the constant influx of frigid yin qi from the Frozen Wasteland.

"This should be enough…"

Feeling that the frozen storm had already grown to a size and power that was close to reaching a level impossible for him to control, Xuan Hao stopped the ice sword below from gathering more frigid qi and using all of his strength, he forcibly pulled the ice sword acting as the center of the storm out of the ground before throwing it in the direction of the Azure Sky Kingdom-

Bang!

Crack-!

As the sword landed a few thousand meters away from the Azure Sky Kingdom, creating a massive crater where it landed, Xuan Hao moved fast and created a dozen similar swords before sending them off in the direction of the other kingdoms from the Sky Empire bordering the Frozen Wasteland-

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Before the frozen storm had time to spread into the Azure Sky Kingdom, the other swords landed and connected together with the ice sword that the frozen storm was centered around.

Rumble~!

Not a second later, the frozen storm stopped encroaching on the Azure Sky Kingdom and instead began to spread out and connect up with the other ice sword, weaving together to create a formidable barrier separating the different kingdoms from the Frozen Wasteland.

Although the size and power of the storm was reduced significantly due to this, it would still be close to impossible for any True Demon Realm demonic cultivator to cross it without dying.

In the end, Xuan Hao had successfully managed to accomplish what he wanted, creating a barrier between the territory of the Star Shattering Sect and the Frozen Wasteland.
