Is that a Wisp?

Chapter 1082 - Layer 1 Isn’t Dangerous Enough

"It seems like picking this up is impossible," Feifei muttered, giving up in the end as she said to Zamuria, "Let's explore further and gather the necessary information."

"We might as well do that," Zamuria replied as the two of them ran out of town, speeding towards the next location.

The middle-aged lady that had talked with them barely caught up, only seeing the figures of the two old ladies disappear from her vision once again. She muttered in shock, "Just…who were they? That's not something those at the Qi Condensation Realm could ever achieve."

Within an hour, Feifei and Zamuria arrived at a city. They took this long because they were only jogging casually. Had they sprinted at their full speed, they would have reached faster. However, that would also mean the shockwaves they unleashed due to their speed would damage all the surroundings along the path they traversed.

Since they didn't want to do that, they restricted themselves. After all, the shockwaves produced when they moved at full speed was more than enough to destroy towns.

Feifei and Zamuria soon arrived at the town, nimbly skipping the walls as they arrived at a street within. Considering the speed at which they moved, none of the residents spotted them. After all, the people in the city were mostly mortals and some cultivators at the First Stage of Qi Condensation.

"Let's split up and gather here when night sets in," Feifei said as the two of them split ways. They had no fear in doing so. After all, it would only be a surprise if there existed anyone that was able to even scratch their skins.

Feifei had been through all the cultivation stages, so she was aware of the power each stage was capable of exhibiting, 'A Core Formation Realm cultivator would be able to injure me. But, that's only in the case I stand perfectly still and tank all the attacks. If I move and use my current abilities, then no Core Formation Realm cultivator is my match. Adding on my cultivation at that realm…'

She shook her head, laughing, "This is unlike what I went through in Layer 3. That was the highest in terms of difficulty. Even though Layer 2 was equally dangerous, there were just demons. So, with a lack of variety in danger, I was able to adapt easily."

Her figure flashed through the streets as she appeared on the rooftop of a house, hiding as she observed the conversation held by the people roaming on the street below. Just a casual glance allowed her to glean a lot of information.

Since she was already privy to the various cultivation realms and everything else necessary to cultivate, she was easily able to understand the gist of things. 'There are some differences in cultivating here and back in the Mortal Realm. However, there should be no problems in adapting.'

She then flashed through the street, causing faint gales that caused the people to look around in confusion. Her figure appeared in a cloth shop and stole a certain gown that contained a mysterious vibe to it.

She then roamed through the place, soon arriving at a large mansion as she entered it stealthily. Skipping through the courtyard, she listened in on the conversation happening inside, smiling as she thought to herself, 'Krune really has interesting thoughts. His experience in Layer 3 made him more cunning. Then again, I like this aspect since you need that to survive in this treacherous world.'

"The Old Master cannot live on for long." A feminine voice sighed. "I fear this would spark a lot of trouble for this household."

"If only the Old Master wasn't poisoned while fighting for the Spiritual Mark."

"Alas, even though we managed to obtain the Spiritual Mark, the Old Master is too ill to use it. Once he dies, everyone would wage war to obtain it."

Soon, the voices died down as Feifei observed that there wasn't anyone else in the room. She calmly entered it, noticing an almost withered old man staring at her, as if having expected it all along.

Feifei was partly surprised that he was able to sense her. Even though she hadn't been hiding, there didn't exist any techniques to perceive others beyond the natural five senses.

"Have you come to kill me for my Spiritual Mark?" The old man gasped while speaking with a lot of effort.

"If I said that I haven't come for it, would you believe me?" Feifei responded calmly, grabbing a chair as she sat on it. Though surprisingly, she didn't actually press her butt on it. That would just break the chair into pieces.

All she did was position herself, making it seem as if she had sat on it.

"Do I have a choice?" The old man sighed as he lamented, "I've seen many people, but it's my first time seeing someone as old as you still maintaining battle strength in her prime. That's the feeling I'm getting from you."

"Well, I've gotten quite old recently." Feifei sighed, seeing her appearance in a nearby mirror, noticing the wrinkles on her face that had been increasing recently. She then looked at the old man and asked him, "Boy, do you wish to trade?"

"Boy? Trade?" The old man was surprised by her choice of terms as he burst out laughing. "Interesting, that's the first time someone dared address I, Old Peun, in such a manner."

"Well, you're just seventy years old, after all." Feifei laughed. "Compared to me, you are just a boy."

"Fine, I am interested in what you have to offer." Old Peun replied, looking at Feifei with interest.

"I just need someone to talk with over tea." Feifei smiled. "And in return, I'll heal you back to full health."

"Impossible, the poison plaguing me is something even the best doctors of the region failed to cure," he retorted vehemently.

As Old Peun looked at her in shock, Feifei calmly grabbed a glass from a corner and filled it with her healing water, giving it to him while saying, "Why don't you test it for yourself?"

"I'm sure your horizons would be broadened after this."
