Chapter 1129 Half Bloom~
As the East Sea Army retreated from the Fae Mountain Range after finding out that they were far too weak to deal with the Illusory Beasts, Xuan Hao was silently observing the teleportation formation that was slowly forming beneath the old man in the Earth Immortal Realm.
Given that his understanding in formations was extremely elementary when compared to the person who had set up the teleportation formation, the simple act of observing the formation forming allowed his understanding of formations to increase by leaps and bounds. Directly allowing him to break through to the Artisan Realm and make steps towards reaching the Master Realm in a short week.
Of course, stepping into the Master Realm by only observing the formation of the teleportation formation below was unrealistic. Even then, it did allow him to get some insights into the realms beyond the Master Realm when it came to formations.
His comprehension of the Dao of Space through the teleportation formation- didn't really result in any real benefits, as he realized that the comprehension of the person who had set up the formation actually had an inferior understanding in the Dao of Space compared to himself.
The only reason why he thought otherwise when first seeing the formation was due to the formation enhancing the power of space contained inside of it. Making it seem far more complicated than it actually was at first glance.
Even then, the creator of the teleportation formation had still managed to make use of this level of comprehension of the Dao of Space to create a teleportation formation that covered a distance far beyond what should be possible with the creator's comprehension of the Dao of Space. Showing just how terrifying his understanding of formations was.
If I'm not wrong, he the creator of the teleportation formation should have already comprehended the Dao of Formations and managed to integrate it with the Dao of Space to some extent…
Narrowing both of his eyes as he thought about this while observing the teleportation formation, Xuan Hao could not help wondering how strong the creator of the formation was.
Given the fact that he should have comprehended the Dao of Formation, he should have at least reached the realm of a Grandmaster when it came to formations, while his ability to integrate the two Daos together hinted that his strength wasn't just at the Domain Lord Realm.
Together with the fact that the Dao of Space wasn't really the easiest dao to comprehend, Xuan Hao had a feeling that the strength of the person who created the teleportation formation should have at least reached the Earth Immortal Realm- And not someone ordinary in the Earth Immortal Realm.
Rumble~!
As two entire weeks passed by since the teleportation formation had started forming, a loud rumbling sound suddenly echoed out from beneath the abandoned temple. Following which the qi in the air around the mountain that the temple was one top up was rapidly swallowed up by the teleportation formation.
"It's finally finished activating."
Having spent this entire time waiting inside the temple while slowly recovering what little he could over the past two weeks, the old man slowly got up while saying this. Turning his full attention towards the now glowing formation symbols covering the entirety of the abandoned temple.
Whoosh~!
Not too long after the old man got up, the teleportation formation sprung into action and created a terrifying spatial force that directly engulfed the old man before sending him shuttling through space in the direction of the Blue Sea Empire's borders- or to be more specific, the borders of the Blue Sea Empire that happened to be connected to the Sky Empire and another few weaker empires.
"Well… This should save me some time compared to flying there myself…" Muttering this to himself as he observed the passage left behind by the activation of the teleportation formation, Xuan Hao didn't waste any time before he used his own power to enter the passage left behind by the teleportation formation.
Not intending to stand around and wait for it to crumble and disappear along with the abandoned temple, that had already crumbled together with the teleportation formation's activation a few seconds earlier.
Although it would require him to use his own strength to travel over such a large distance, his current strength was more than enough to accomplish something like this. Especially when considering that the passage itself had already been created and he just had to follow it while ensuring that he didn't end up getting swept up in some kind of spatial anomaly along the way.
In the end, both Xuan Hao and the old man disappeared from the inner region of the Blue Sea Empire with any signs of them leaving being destroyed together with the collapse of the small, abandoned temple.
The only sign of what had happened being the small spatial anomaly left behind by the spatial tunnel being created, something that would soon cease to exist, as the laws of the world patched up the hole like it had never been there in the first place over the next few seconds.
Riiip~!
Not too long after this, the space next to the abandoned temple tore apart as a person covered in a long black robe making their appearance hard to guess, appeared above the now destroyed temple.
"Another one of these teleportation formations... Just who is it that keeps setting them up? Even after such a long time, that person still somehow manages to elude us…" As the person above the temple muttered this to themself, a terrifying power suddenly descended on what was left of the temple. Instantly destroying it without leaving any traces of its existence behind.
"Hm? Now that I think about it, there was a situation with a few of those illusory beasts from the valley where that terrifying creature is sealed managed to escape. If I'm not wrong, that rebellious brat from the East Sea Army went to try and deal with it but ended up failing after encountering two illusory beasts in the Half Bloom Stage.
Hehe, from what I know about that guy. Although his strength is above that of an ordinary Earth Immortal in the Half Bloom Stage, he is rather weak when faced with soul-based attacks. Even if there was only a single illusory beast at the Half Bloom Stage, I doubt it would have made any difference…"
Chuckling to themself while saying this, the person hidden beneath the black robe turned around and left in the direction of the Fae Mountain Range. Clearly intending to check up on the situation with the illusory beasts.
After all, if the illusory beasts ended up leaving the Fae Mountain Range and began to split up, the situation would get somewhat out of hand. Not only because it was hard to catch an illusory beast in the Earth Immortal Realm, but because the illusory beasts could hide far better than normal demon beasts with the help of the Dao of Illusions.
If they realized they were being chased, it would be difficult for anyone below the Earth Immortal Realm to find them. Not to mention, even those in the Earth Immortal Realm would have a hard time finding them if they decided to hide in places filled with demon beasts.
…
Whoosh~!
At the same time that the unidentifiable person left the abandoned temple after having completely erased it from existence, the old man in the Earth Immortal Realm suddenly appeared out of thin air inside a large swamp-
"Ah!?"
Splash!
And without any time to stop himself, he ended up falling straight into the muddy swamp water.
Damnable injuries…. If not for the fact that my reaction speed was also hurt, I would never have been forced to endure something like this. The only saving grace is that no one is around to-"
Whoosh~
Just as the old man was whispering something to himself, the space behind him split open before Xuan Hao stepped out through the crack. Given the fact that the spatial passage wasn't something he could control and the fact that the old man would undoubtedly notice him when he appeared so close to him. Even if he was injured. Xuan Hao decided to just reveal himself without bothering to hide.
Splash~
"Huh!?" Of course, his sudden appearance caught the old man off guard, as he instantly jumped up from the muddy water without cleaning himself up.
"Who are you!?"
Seeing that Xuan Hao wasn't wearing anything resembling someone from Blue Sea Empire's military, he calmed down a bit, but was still on edge as he asked this.
After all, he had just silently appeared behind him without notice and seemed to have come through the same way he had made it to the swamp somewhere outside the Blue Sea Empire. Meaning he had been watching him for some time and found a way to follow him through the passage left by the teleportation formation…
