Is that a Wisp?

Chapter 198 We have company

Somewhere around the border between the outer perimeter and central regions, a man just appeared out of nowhere. His clothes were quite ragged, and it was evident that he had passed through a hard time. His name was Gelius, the black-clothed man that was pursuing Uriu Orion back then.

"Fuck! That ant, when I find him, I will suck his life energy dry!"

He had a lot of difficulties to leave that trap left by the owner of this place a long time ago. Only after over a week of effort did he finally escape its range. He knew that Uriu was guiding into that place. Still, he thought that even if he followed Uriu inside, he would be able to deal with it easily. Unfortunately for him, he had underestimated Uriu's plans and the prowess of the trap formation.

But now that he is outside, he immediately dashed to the inner core region direction at full speed. He wasn't even afraid of alarming the beasts on the way. Anyone who tried to block him died!

Krune and Feifei were also making their way there while Feifei was trying to calculate the position of the others.

"It's quite hard, I have almost no information regarding this dimensional realm. Because of that, it isn't easy to calculate their positions at the moment. The best I can do is give a general direction."

Krune nodded and said.

"No problem, as long as you can tell where we should go, that's enough. Sooner or later, we will bump on them."

Sure enough, because everyone had been moving into the inner core region, Krune finally found some of them. It turns out that the ones they found out first were Feifei's pretenders! She couldn't help but sigh after seeing them in her Divine Sense. Still, it wasn't time to care about it.

The Wang Clan guys had been moving together ever since they separated from Feifei. It took them by surprise to see that Feifei was the one coming after them instead. When they looked at the wisp beside Feifei, they wanted nothing more than tearing it apart. Still, they knew that it wouldn't be easy. Not to mention that Feifei couldn't possibly allow them to do that.

"Feifei, where did you go? If something happened to you, the grand elder would have skinned us alive!"

Feifei didn't waste time explaining why she separated from them and immediately told them everything through a Divine Sense message.

"What?! An assassin? Here?"

They couldn't believe it! Someone tried to kill Feifei right under the Divine Path Sect and the Big Four noses.

"Feifei, are you telling the truth? This isn't a joke."

Feifei didn't blame them this time since she was the one to flee first. So to make things faster, she simply took out a blood contract and used it to prove her words. When the four guys looked at that, they were taken aback! Now they have no other choice other than believe her.

"This..."

Krune then came forward and told them his plans. But because of what happened, they weren't very willing to follow Krune's idea.

Feifei noticed that and then said.

"If you are not coming, then I will go alone with Krune. By the way, that is the safest option according to what I can see with my abilities."

Wang Mo sighed and then said.

"Fine, if it is what your prediction ability says, then I will follow krune's idea."

Wang Ting and the other two also nodded. Everyone knows about Feifei's divination abilities, so it would be an idiotic act to go against it in this situation. The end result might even be their death because of that.

Feifei then told everyone the direction that they should move, and they departed. On the way, Wang Mo passed Krune a combat formation through their communicators and told him to practice it for now. They would use it in case they find one of those Divine Soul Realm assassins.

Krune looked at the information and had to admit that this combat formation was excellent, not to mention that it could support different numbers of cultivators or demon beasts. After reading everything and pondering about it for a while, he arrived at a conclusion.

"For this formation to show the best result, I will have to be in the center controlling it."

Wang Mo and the others heard that, and their mouths twitched.

"You only learned about his formation a few hours ago, and you believe you can control it better than Wang Mo? Are you making fun of our faces?"

Krune shook his head and said.

"I see nothing funny in doing something like that. This formation requires a high control over the elements and excellent grasp between both attack and defense at the same time. I believe that I am indeed the best one here for that. With Feifei's calculations, I have no doubt that no one is better than me for this role at the moment."

Wang Mo and the others obviously didn't believe it, nor did they want to be under Krune's control. So they all immediately refused. Krune saw that and sighed. There would be no point in having Feifei demanding them to do as he said. If they are not willing themselves, the formation might indeed be worse in his hands. Only with everyone's full cooperation, Krune can bring the best result out of this.

Feifei also understood that point, so she didn't say anything. If she forces them to cooperate, they will instead hold an even bigger grudge against Krune.

On the way, they had also asked to Feifei why she had fled.

"Because if I kept close to you guys, I wouldn't be able to train myself, so I did a deal with Krune. He would bring me away, but he would not intervene in any battle that I went through. Thanks to that, I could finally test several attack and defense skills that I had thought about. It was a lot better than having you guys stepping forward every single second to 'protect' me."

They were taken aback, but they had to admit that they would indeed try to look nice in front of her by doing that. Also, because of the grand elder's orders, there is no way they could let Feifei pass through any dangerous situation. But a dangerous situation was exactly what she wanted.

Krune didn't say anything and let everything for Feifei to deal with.

A day later, Krune's group tried out the combat formation. In the end, Wang Mo was the one controlling it while Feifei used her Destiny Core to help with the battle. Krune could only sigh after seeing the several points where it went wrong or that he could have done better. Still, he followed the orders without complaining.

The Wang Clan guys had to once more admit Krune's talent. He was, without a doubt, the one who contributed the most both in attack and defense. Not to mention his flying shields that could add an extra layer of protection. Of course, they could only test it against Core Formation Realm opponents since they would spend too much energy if they challenged a Divine Soul Beast.

After a few more forced battles, they stopped at that since they were close to the inner core region now. Finally, Krune's group reached the central and inner core region border. When they looked at the place, they were taken aback.

There was a huge light barrier as far as they could see! It seemed like it entered the ground and also the air above. Also, they couldn't see anything like an entrance at all!

Feifei felt that something wasn't right about this place.

Krune noticed her behavior and asked through a Divine Sense.

"What is it?"

Feifei then said.

"I don't know, but it seems like there is something different inside."

Krune was taken aback but didn't show it on his face.

"Can you tell me what it is?"

Feifei went silent for a moment but then said.

"No, it's just a feeling, and it's quite weird."

Krune nodded slightly.

"Let's not care about it for now, then. We have bigger issues to deal with at the moment."

Feifei agreed with him and focused back on the situation in front of them.

Wang mo then looked at everyone and said.

"Let's follow the barrier to see if we can find anything further away. Also, the others probably were stopped by this thing, so it should be easier to find them now."

Krune and everyone nodded, but Krune told them something else.

"If we thought about this possibility, the enemy probably did the same, so let's be careful."

He then looked at Feifei and asked.

"Which side is should we go to found the other groups?"

Feifei focused on her Destiny Core once more and said.

"Right side."

Everyone nodded once more, and they departed.

Around one hour later, two men from the assassin's group appeared in the same place where Krune and the others were before. One of then was Lanis, while the other was the last Black-Clothed man. In fact, he is a demon beast in human form, a griffin, to be more exact. His name was Yano.

Lanis looked at Yano and asked.

"How's that?"

Yano nodded and said.

"They had been here, but they were stopped by this barrier. Let me see..."

Yano then took a piece of equipment and said.

"They went to the right side, and it seems like there are more of them now. But I can't be sure how much or who it is."

Lanis nodded and said.

"No problem. Gelius and Peily are also coming, so I will tell them the direction, and we are going ahead first. It's one thing for the Rasie Kids to deal with one of us, but it won't happen if we attack together. As for mounting an ambush, it seems it won't work. Peily said that they can feel our Divine Senses already, even though they are in the Core Formation Realm. Those are some scaring kids."

Yano and Lanis then moved out to see if they could find Feifei. Although Peily lost track from Krune, Lanis doesn't believe that the same can happen with him since he is a lot faster.

On krune's side, they finally found another group, they were none else than the Rasie Clan participants.

Hulibe Acrol had also noticed that, although he didn't see any other assassin, there had been no other Divine Soul Realm from the Divine Path Sect, either. So he also concluded that this realm is possibly closed to those outside this place.

He noticed someone approaching and went on guard, but when he saw that it was Krune and the Wang Clan people, he relaxed a bit.

After that, he asked if Krune's group knew what was happening and what they found.

Wang Mo came forward and nodded.

"Yes, we know everything already."

Both sides then explained what they knew.

"We should keep together for the time being. Like that, the combat formation that I have here will also get much better."

Acrol looked at the formation and said.

"Keeping together is indeed the best option since we don't know if they have a way to track us down. Separating now might just make us being hunted one by one. Still, my group has no need for your formation, so you can keep it to yourselves. We have our own way of dealing with our opponents."

They were just about to keep taking when suddenly, Krune came forward to talk.

"I'm sorry for stopping you two, but we have company!"
