Chapter 770: Troubled Xu Bao
“Is there anything else I can help with senior…?”
Seeing that Xuan Hao had been standing deep in thought for a few minutes without saying anything after hearing what he said, Xu Bao could not help growing nervous. Thinking that he might have messed up and caused the senior to doubt his identity as someone from a hidden sect
“No, there is nothing more than this, you were a great help to me! I will see you again in a few days during the meeting for the sect alliance.”
“Yes senior! I will be waiting eagerly for that day!”
Hearing what Xuan Hao said, Xu Bao could not help breathing out a sigh of relief before he eagerly escorted Xuan Hao all the way out of the inn under the confused expressions of the experts from the different independent sects who were all nervously waiting downstairs.
“Brother Xu… Did the senior request something easy for us to accomplish?”
“Elder Xu, what did the senior ask us for in return for his assistance?”
“Elder-”
Following Xuan Hao leaving the inn, the different Domain Lords present all rushed towards Elder Xu who had just returned back inside the inn with curious expressions plastered all over the faces.
“This-”
Looks like this is going to take some time to explain…
Not expecting for him to get surrounded the moment he stepped back inside the inn, Xu Bao had no idea what to say as he could only helplessly look at the curious Domain Lords surrounding him together with the eager Nascent Soul Realm Experts looking towards him from a distance with the same level of curiosity as the Domain Lords.
If not for the fact that these people were only in the Nascent Soul Realm and didn’t dare rush up to him like the Domain Lords, Xu Bao was almost certain that he would have ended up getting squashed to death by this large group of eager people.
…
Leaving the inn after getting a better idea of what the Soul Ascension Realm was, Xuan Hao did not go anywhere specific and instead began aimlessly walking around the capital as he thought about how he was going to increase his strength enough for him to have the ability to directly pass through the Immortal Soul Tribulation.
Even if he could continue increasing his strength by comprehending the different Daos that he had already integrated into his domain, he also understood that this process was extremely slow and would take a long time.
Even with his current cultivation speed being far faster than others, he would still need at least a few thousand years before he could reach a level where he would have the ability to deal with a powerful defensive formation like the guardian formation of the capital!
Although this speed was still incredibly fast when compared to others, to Xuan Hao who was still under a hundred years old at the moment, the prospect of him spending over a thousand years stuck in the same Domain Lord Realm was not something he was looking forward to doing. Not to mention, it might not be something he had the luxury of doing…
He still had to inspect the ancient seal below the ruins of the Raging Flame Sect after he returned from capital. Depending on whether or not the seal was damaged and how much, he might not have a thousand years to reach a level strong enough for him to pass through the Immortal Soul Tribulation!
The ancient seal was by far the thing that Xuan Hao was the most worried about. Especially after he found out that the creature sealed by the seal was actually related to the Dao of Corruption…
“Have you heard? Apparently the supreme elder of the Sky Mist Kingdom is going to give a public lecture at the square in front of the Black Mist auction house!”
“Black Mist auction house? Isn’t that the auction house under the Sky Mist Kingdom…? Are you sure this is not just a way to attract more customers for his auction house?”
“Yes! I heard that he is indeed going to hold a public lecture! Even if it won’t last for an hour, a lecture from someone in the Domain Lord Realm is something hard to come by. Especially for people like us…”
“Indeed… Guess we will postpone the job for today and check out the lecture. Hopefully we will be able to improve our strength after the lecture.”
“Haha! I knew I could count on you! Let’s go!”
Swish~
A public lecture by a Domain Lord? Maybe I should go and take a look…
Overhearing the conversation between two young men talking with each other, Xuan Hao could not help stopping for a moment as he looked in the direction that the two of them were running with a curious expression on his face.
Ever since he had reached the Nascent Soul Realm, he had never gone to any of the lectures held by the elders of the sect.
Considering that it had been a long time since he had gone to one and he was not getting any closer to solving his problem of how to improve his strength by just walking around, Xuan Hao thought about it for a few seconds before ultimately deciding to join the public lecture that was going to be held in front of the Black Mist auction house.
All things considered, it would also be a good opportunity for him to get a better understanding of another Domain Lord’s comprehension of the Domain Lord Realm and how he had managed to progress.
If he was lucky, he might even be able to make some progress on how he could increase his strength further… Well… One could always dream…
Swoosh~
Not waiting around after having come to a decision, Xuan Hao turned around before following after the two young men who were eagerly making their way towards Black Mist auction house while happily chatting with each other along the way.
