614 Passing Time (4)
Back in the Flying Sword Sect, close to half a year had passed since the construction of the new main sect on the Seventh Star Peak began.
During this time, Xuan Hao had managed to learn a plethora of new techniques that he could teach his three disciples, while at the same time increasing his knowledge in the different professions that existed across the Ewaria Continent. Even learning about some of the more obscure professions that the Flying Sword Sect and the Spring Flower Sect had no experts in, like the art of tea and disguise.
The art of tea was especially something he was interested in and while trying his hand on it himself one time in the kitchen located inside his pavilion. Unfortunately, he was not really skilled when it came to tea brewing...
However, it was at this time that he happened to meet Zhi Ruo and after a short conversation on the topic of tea, he discovered that she had a talent when it came to the Art of Tea. Although she was not talented when it came to cultivation, Xuan Hao did not care much about this as she was not his disciple.
Wanting to have someone skilled in the art of tea around him, Xuan Hao decided to get some books on the art of tea for Zhi Ruo to train with, something she was more than happy to do, as practicing the art of tea brewing would not only allow her to improve the quality of the tea, she made but would also help her mind clear up and allow her to increase her cultivation over time.
"Thank you so much!"
Seeing the happy expression on Zhi Ruo's face after he handed over the stack of books filled with information on the art of tea, Xuan Hao could not help feeling a wave of happiness.
In the future, I should try and get a few more books on the art of tea if possible...
Thinking this to himself, Xuan Hao once again returned to his daily life of learning new techniques and teaching his three disciples. However, this time around, he would also spend some time together with Zhi Ruo to see how far she had improved in the art of tea brewing.
Like this, another half year passed by peacefully.
...
"Looks like the construction of the new main sect is finally about to be completed." After a little over a year of cultivating in peace at his pavilion and teaching his disciples, Xuan Hao stood up and stretched his body after a night of cultivating under the stars before looking in the direction of the Shattered Star Peaks.
Over the past year, his cultivation realm had not changed, and he was still in the Eighth Stage of the Domain Lord Realm.
The main reason for this, was the fact that he had dedicated most of his focus on comprehending his two domains in an attempt to merge the two together. Sadly, although he did make some progress and increased the strength of both his domains, he was still far away from merging them together into a single domain.
Given his current speed, he would most likely take five to ten years to successfully merge the two domains together without any help from external sources.
...
"Did something happen?"
"Ah! Elder Xuan?! Y-you gave me a shock. Appearing in front of me like that... No nothing serious happened, I just came here on behalf of myself and a few other elders who wanted to join your quarterly lecture that is starting in a few hours!
You don't have to worry about us interrupting your lecture! All of us will be completely silent and will just listen on the side without saying anything." Almost jumping into the air upon seeing Xuan Hao suddenly appear in front of him, the elder quickly explained his reason for showing up. Making sure to explain he was here on behalf of not only himself but a group of elders.
Ah... That's right, there is also the repeatable sect quest... Because it was once every 3 months, I decided to get Elder Song's help in arranging the lectures and helping select the participants for me.
If I'm not wrong, this time around, the lecture should be for the older disciples in the Foundation Establishment and Core Formation Realm who won in a tournament set up by Elder Song... No wonder these elders want to join in as well, they want to listen to Core Formation Realm part of the lecture!
Thinking this to himself, Xuan Hao could not help smiling. The elders of the Flying Sword Sect might be a bit lazy when it came to certain things, but when it came down to it, they still wanted to improve their cultivation.
Maybe holding a lecture for the Core Formation Realm Elders in the future is a good idea... I should ask Elder Song about this later.
"Sure, you and the other elders are welcome to join."
"Thank you! I will go and inform the others as quickly as possible!"
Not seeing any reason to refuse the elder, Xuan Hao chuckled silently to himself as he watched the elder excitedly run down the mountain before rushing towards a group of elders anxiously waiting not too far away from his mountain.
Following the elder returning with the news of them being able to listen in on the lecture if they remained silent, the group of elders all jumped up excitedly before praising the elder who had ventured up the mountain to ask him.
It was a quite heart-warming thing to witness the old elders acting like this...
Last timeskip chapter, will get an update on disciples soon. Unfortunatly... I will once again have to undergo the daily struggle of finding a chapter title... xD
