Chapter 1278 Leaving for the Mystic Realm

Chapter 1278  Leaving for the Mystic Realm

Setting off for the borders of the sect to pick up Su Wuhan, Xuan Hao didn't waste much time as he directly used the Dao of Space to appear in front of the other party before grabbing him and returning to the sect before the person in question had time to react to what was happening.

"Wha-!? W-where is this!?"

By the time Su Wuhan came to again and began to observe his surroundings, he realized that he was in a completely different place with all of his cultivation being sealed without him even noticing.

Soon resulting in Su Wuhan cautiously taking in his new surroundings. Soon resulting in him spotting Xuan Hao sitting on the ground not too far away. Already focused on comprehending the Dao of Space as he was waiting for the blacksmithing elders and Mui to finish things up on their side before moving to the mystic realm of the Mirage Sect.

This… That person from back then…

Recognizing Xuan Hao as the terrifying existence who had essentially forced him to become an unwilling servant of Elder Dust Fairy, Su Wuhan felt himself relaxing ever so slightly. Understanding that the other party shouldn't have taken him away to kill him, as he had done quite well in helping Elder Dust Fairy over the past few months and was still in the process of completing several tasks on her behalf.

If not for that, he would have been far more panicked at this point in time. Especially considering that a part of him had begun to worry about the Star Shattering Sect behind the person in front of him killing him off to ensure that the Star Shattering Sect wouldn't end up getting targeted for housing demonic cultivators by the Blue Sea Empire when they swept through the place in another few months.

Whoosh~

Standing there awkwardly for another few minutes, Su Wuhan was about to say something to try and figure out why he had suddenly been taken away to a strange room and had his cultivation base sealed, when Xuan Hao who had been sitting silently in front of him suddenly disappeared. Leaving him all alone to stare blankly around the empty room without knowing what to do.

Even if a part of him wanted to leave the room and explore where he was, his cultivation base had been sealed and he feared that leaving the room without allowance could result in the terrifying figure who had brought him to the room in the first place killing him.

Whoosh~

Luckily for Su Wuhan, he didn't have to wait for more than half an hour before Xuan Hao returned with a certain little girl in tow… And without explaining anything to him, Xuan Hao once again grabbed Su Wuhan before leaving the Star Shattering Sect.

The only difference from the first time around was the fact that he now also carried a little girl along with him as they headed towards a place that Su Wuhan would be forced to call home for the foreseeable future.

…

Arriving at the entrance to the mystic realm of the Mirage Sect together with Mui and Su Wuhan, Xuan Hao used the power inside the robe he had gotten from the elder of the Mirage Sect back during his first visit to mystic realm and created a passage through the protective formation for them to pass through. Avoiding the maximum cultivation limit placed on the formation guarding the entrance of the mystic realm all together.

"This is… A mystic Realm?" Only now realizing what kind of place they had entered, Su Wuhan who had remained quiet so far, could not help showing a surprised expression on his face as he looked around the underground space, they now found themselves inside.

Whoosh-!

However, before he could get a chance to marvel over the fact that he had managed to enter a mystic realm, Xuan Hao used his dao domain to seal him away in a corner next to the entrance of the mystic realm. Making full use of his not so recently comprehended Dao of Formations to do this.

Although he had taken Su Wuhan to the mystic realm for the purpose of him hiding away while the people from the Blue Sea Empire swept through the place. Killing any demonic cultivators they spotted along the way. There was no way he would allow him to just roam around inside the mystic realm on his own.

Not to mention the fact that there should be things inside the mystic realm that could allow him to rapidly improve his strength and possibly break free from the seal he had placed on him, there were also several things that could kill him if he carelessly wandered around the place.

Even with his current strength in the Late Stage of the Dao Domain Lord Realm, being comparable to the Middle Stage of the Dao Seed Realm, he didn't feel confident in his own safety inside the mystic realm of the Mirage Sect, let alone someone who had only just recently broken through to the True Demon Realm…

"Master, are we going to leave that person here?" Not aware of who Su Wuhan was and only seeing him being pushed to a corner of the underground space by her master, Mui could not help innocently looking up at her master as she tilted her head cutely to the side with a curious expression on her face.

"This… He is going to keep an eye on the entrance to the mystic realm while we go inside and explore the place."

"I see! So, he's like one of those gate guards watching the gates of the Falling Star City."

"…"

Deciding that it would properly be best for him to remain silent, Su Wuhan helplessly nodded his head when faced with the questioning look of the little girl.

Yep, it had nothing to do with the rather intense stare that the person standing beside this little girl was giving him, yep, absolutely nothing to do with that.

"Let's get going, we don't need to waste our time around the entrance, the outside of this underground space is far more exciting. Not to mention, there is also all kinds of rare metals and other things for you to collect."

"Huh!? Really!?"

"Yes."

"Yay!"

Ignoring the overjoyed Mui as his attention remained fully focused on Xuan Hao, Su Wuhan nervously watched as the two disappeared in the direction of what he assumed to be a way out of the underground space he now found himself inside of after being forced into the mystic realm.

Only able to let out a sigh of relief after the two of them had fully disappeared from his limited divine sense that only barely covered a few hundred meters around himself in his current state.

Even then, he didn't complain about his condition that was no different from a trapped animal unable to do anything but observe his surroundings.

After all, it didn't take a genius to understand that the reason why he had been dragged along and placed inside the mystic realm by Xuan Hao was due to the fact that the cultivators from the Blue Sea Empire would soon be sweeping through the kingdoms and empires close to the Frozen Wasteland.

In a sense, he felt happy knowing that the Star Shattering Sect at least valued him enough to find a place to hide him away and keep him alive instead of just discarding him when the people from the Blue Sea Empire appeared.

Although he understood that his current position in the Star Shattering Sect still wasn't really anything more than a useful demonic cultivator, he at least felt like he saw some hope in turning his own situation around if he continued working hard for that Elder Dust Fairy who was watching over him and putting him to work.

At least, when compared to what awaited him back in the Frozen Wasteland or the demonic sect that had been behind him becoming a demonic cultivator in the first place, Su Wuhan felt that it was far better for him to stay inside the Star Shattering Sect.

Outside of that, there was also the option of trying to run away after the seal placed on his soul disappeared or he found some way to remove it, but he had a feeling that doing something like that would result in the demonic sect that had been secretly nurturing him coming after him.

Thinking about his current situation as he had nothing better to do while being stuck inside the vast empty underground space of the mystic realm, Su Wuhan realized that staying with the Star Shattering Sect might be his only way of staying alive, as the Star Shattering Sect itself should be what kept the demonic sect that had been secretly nurturing him from going after him for the past few months.

After all, they should have noticed that the person they had sent to get him had been killed.

The only reason they hadn't sought him out after that, should be because they felt cautious about the Star Shattering Sect that was the most likely suspect in the disappearance of their True Demon Realm cultivator.
