<h4>Chapter 185: Pseudo Sword Domain Showing it''s Might!</h4>


    Screech!


    "Another one..." Flying high above the ancient forest below him, Xuan Hao helplessly looked down as a giant crow demon beast flew towards him from the ancient forest below.


    The demon beasts flying up to attack him from time to time had bemon as Xuan Hao already knew that most of the demon beasts in the ancient forest below had already been unsealed at this point in time.


    At this point, the crow demon beast with a wingspan of at least a dozen or so meters arrived a few hundred meters away from Xuan Hao as it prepared tounch an attack, its ws giving off a dangerous feeling as it quickly closed the short distance between itself and Xuan Hao.


    "Screech!" Getting closer and closer to Xuan Hao who ignored it this entire time, the crow demon beast let out an angry screech as it ws shone in an eerie ck light before it was soon only a little over 10 meters away from him.


    "Screech?" It was at this point the giant crow demon beast suddenly noticed something weird as it felt the world around itself disappear and instead it was reced by an endless ocean of swords.


    The crow demon beast was fully engulfed in Xuan Hao''s pseudo sword domain and before it could react, the sword ocean swallowed it uppletely. Killing it instantly before it could let out onest screeching sound.


    On the outside, Xuan Hao looked over and saw the crow demon beast suddenly freeze for a moment before it was filled with countless sword wounds all over its body.


    Bang!


    The crow demon beast did not remain flying after the wounds appeared on its body and soon crashed into the ancient forest below.


    A group of demon beast nearby heard themotion and soon swarmed over to devour dead body of the crow demon beast.


    Xuan Hao did not pay any more attention to the dead crow demon beast and resumed his journey towards the border area of the Nascent Soul Realm area.


    What happened earlier was simply Xuan Hao using the power of his pseudo domain to kill the crow demon beast. The image that the crow demon beast had of a sword ocean engulfing and attacking it from all sides was simply the image that Xuan Hao''s pseudo domain had.


    While not aplete domain yet, Xuan Hao still manged to bring out some of the true essence of his future sword domain.


    Following the Untold Swords Mantra, Xuan Hao''s future sword domain would be able to manifest an untold number of swords into an endless sword ocean that could be used to attack his opponents. At its current stage, Xuan Hao could only use it tounch an attack if the opponent was kind enough to walk directly into his domain like the crow demon beast did.


    Outside of that, Xuan Hao would be able to use his pseudo sword domain to strengthen his attacks even further. The strengthening brought about by his pseudo sword domain made Xuan Hao confident that he would be able to move however he wanted in the Nascent Soul Realm area of the secret realm without fearing the Half-Step Domain Lord demon beasts!


    This was not to say Xuan Hao wanted to fight with them, as that would most likely end up attracting other Half-Step Domain Lord demon beast the longer the fight went on.


    But Xuan Hao did not really worry too much about this. After all, he could always run away if things became too dangerous for him… A tactical retreat!


    Xuan Hao did not really care much about "fighting to the end" or upholding his "honour" or something ridiculous like that. Life was way more important, and he doubted any sane cultivator would die for the sole purpose of saving a bit of face…


    …


    The journey to the border area went rtively peacefully, with only a few demon beasts at the earlier and sometime middle stages of the Nascent Soul Realmunching an attack at Xuan Hao from time to time as the demon beasts on the ground below happily devoured what remained of them after their unfortunate encounter with Xuan Hao did not end as nned for them…


    "So, this is the formation pirs at the edge of the Nascent Soul Realm area, they look way smallerpared to the others..." Arriving at the border area, Xuan Hao instantly spotted one of the formation pirs stretching far into the sky above, butpared to the other formation pir, they were way smaller and looked simpler.


    Xuan Hao went up to the formation pir in front of him and tried to inspect it with his divine sense like he had done in the past together with Chi Hu but was disappointed when all he saw was a myriad of different formations.


    Nothing like the domain power left in the other pir was left behind for him toprehend or maybe there was something located beneath the countless formations, but Xuan Hao would never know…


    Moving his vision away from the formation pir, Xuan Hao looked at the surrounding ancient forest and did not spot the small pce mentioned by the treasure hunter anywhere nearby.


    ording to the treasure hunter, the small pce was located at the border area in the rough direction he was currently at, but even then, Xuan Hao could not spot the small pce even when he surveyed the surrounding area from above.


    Maybe the small pce was not visible when looking from above and was instead hidden beneath the ancient trees. After all, the treasure hunter did say it was a small pce instead of just calling it a normal pce…


    With this in mind, Xuan Hao descended and began to search the area around the border from the ground.


    ording to what the treasure hunter said, the border area should be swarming with Half-Step Domain Lord demon beast, simr to how the border of the Core Formation area had a lot of Half-Step Nascent Soul Realm demon beast!


    Compared to when he was far above the ground where a random flying demon beast spotted him every now and then, danger could be lurking around every corner as Xuan Hao cautiously made his way through the ancient forest.


    Not daring to let his guard down as he searched for the small temple. Staying cautious in case any demon beast decided tounch a sneak attack on him.
