Cultivating Disciples to Breakthrough

The commander saw both of them coming towards him and wanted to shout for them to leave, but the light blue robed man acted faster and a few dozen sharp icicle manifested besides him before flying over in the direction of the two soldiers that were moving in the direction of the commander.

The two soldiers were not surprised in the slightest, as they had already expected for the light blue robed man to attack them the moment they got close enough.

So, one of them stepped forward and conjured a barrier to block the incoming icicles, while the other continued moving over in the direction of the commander.

Crash~

The icicles crashed into the barrier and within only a few seconds manged to pierce through and hit the soldier who by now was barely breathing as his physical body died causing his Nascent Soul to fly out.

In such a situation, a Nascent Soul Realm cultivator would normally choose to escape, as even a small injury on the Nascent Soul would be almost impossible to recover.

It did not help that the Nascent Soul itself had no form of defence that the physical body had, even a mortal would be able to destroy the Nascent Soul of a Nascent Soul Realm Expert without much difficulty.

Of course, something like that would only be possible if the Nascent Soul Expert allowed for the person in question to freely attack without doing anything, but it still demonstrated how fragile the Nascent Soul was.

The soldier however did not escape when he his Nascent Soul exited his now dead physical body, instead he floated gently in the air for a moment before flying over in the direction of the light blue robed man, while gathering all his remaining qi together, ready to launch a final attack upon getting close enough.

Sadly, something like self-destructing in a glorious explosion was not a something one could do without ample preparation. Though there were rumours that Experts in the Domain Lord Realm could self-destruct without any prior preparations!

Because of this, even though the soldier wanted to self-destruct and die together with the light blue robed man from the Azure Sky Kingdom, all he could do was try to get close enough and launch a deadly attack using all the qi stored in his Nascent Soul before perishing.

"What the-" The light blue robed man also saw the Nascent Soul crazily flying over in his direction and immediately turned his attention away from the ice spear bearing down on the commander. Allowing for the second soldier, who just arrived besides the commander, to help stabilize the wall blocking the ice spear for a moment.

Cough*

The commander used this opportunity to stand up, but quickly fell down to the ground as he started coughing violently.

"Commander!" The soldier standing beside him reacted quickly and went to support the commander.

"We need to get out of here immediately or his sacrifice will be for nothing…" Looking over in the direction of the Nascent Soul that was just about to reach the light blue robed man, the commander shook his head as he steeled himself and reminded the soldier that they only had a limited amount of time before the light blue robed man recovered and focused his attention back on them.

At that point, all three of them would not make it out alive, making the soldiers sacrifice completely irrelevant.

"Y-yes commander!" Feeling a bit shaken upon hearing what the commander said, the soldier looked over in the direction of his friend one last time before carrying the commander in the direction of the mountain pass in the south that the army should have begun retreating towards.

The mountain pass was one of the Heavenly Sky Kingdom's fortified locations and was way better defended compared to the border region where no arrays or any other form of permanent defensive structure was present.

A little distance away where the two Wang brothers were holding off one person from the Azure Sky Kingdom each, they both saw the Nascent Soul from one of the soldiers flying over in the direction of the light blue robed man.

"Looks like it is time for us to retreat…" Muttering this to himself, Wang Hu looked over and saw the other soldier carrying the commander away in the direction of the South Mountain Pass that the army was ordered to retreat to.

"Indeed, we should leave immediately, the commander has already made it quite far and these four should not be able to catch him even if we leave." Hearing what his brother muttered to himself; Wang Lan agreed as he quickly contacted the two flowers from the Spring Flower Sect.

Swish~

The Seventh and Fifth Flower both agreed with the idea of retreating as the Fifth Flower threw out a few talismans that turned into a large ocean of flowers that momentarily limited the divine sense of the four Nascent Soul Realm Experts on the side of the Azure Sky Kingdom to a few dozen meters.

Wang Hu and Wang Lan both took this opportunity and quickly retreated together with the Seventh and Fifth Flower.

…

At the same time that Wang Hu, Wang Lan, Seventh and Fifth Flower retreated, the soldier that was only a Nascent Soul arrived a few dozen meters away from the light blue robed man filled with killing intent.

"Hmph, you think you will be able to kill me?" Sneering disdainfully at the Nascent Soul flying towards him, the light blue robed man had already started deploying his defensive measures as he launch a few attacks towards the Nascent Soul of the soldier, who easily dodged them.

The strong point of a Nascent Soul was that it fast and could fly, even with how fragile it was, hitting it was not something easy for cultivators who did not have an instantaneous large area attack to kill it.

The light blue robed man was in this category and while he did have many large scale awesome looking ice attacks, he did not have anything to deal with the nimble Nascent Soul flying towards him.

The Nascent Soul of the soldier easily made it within 5 meters of the light blue robed man but was then blocked by a freezing wall of ice that did not allow for him to continue any closer.

"Die!" Screaming as loudly as he could, the Nascent Soul of the soldier gathered all the qi left in his Nascent Soul before using the strongest technique available to attack the light blue robed man.

BOOM!

A large explosion instantly swept through the surroundings as the attack launched by the Nascent Soul of the soldier hit the light blue robed mans ice barrier and other defensive measures.
