Is that a Wisp?

Sure enough, Hulibe and Mo noticed someone else approaching. But to their surprise, it was none other than Uriu and the Divine Path Sect disciples! After they got close, Uriu immediately started to tell them what happened.

Krune heard that and said.

"So you guys also found an Assassin. It seems like they are here for Feifei, and we are the witnesses that they need to get rid of too."

If it was only Feifei, a few of them might have separated from her. But so far, it was evident that they should also be eliminated to prevent any clues of those Assassins to spread. That meant that just leaving Feifei behind will make them no good. Instead, it will reduce their combat power.

Juniu and the other disciples of the Divine Path Sect then gathered around Krune. They know that Krune is the strongest from their Sect at the moment, and he was someone selected by the Sect Master. In their eyes, it would be safer to follow Krune instead. Krune didn't mind it this time, he needed more strength, after all.

But there was also another thing. With Krune's group numbers, Wang Mo's group had no right to say that Krune should follow their order while using the battle formation.

Krune then turned to Wang Mo and asked.

"Can I pass them the battle formation?"

Wang Mo was taken aback since he thought that Krune would use this chance to ask for the central position in it, but he just asked for the combat formation instead.

"Sure."

He then sent the combat formation to Juniu and the others. But when they noticed that the one who was controlling it wasn't Krune, they got puzzled.

It was then that Krune said.

"Alright, I will make a new group with them while you guys make a group yourselves. We don't know how many enemies are there, but we can tell that it is at least three at the moment. The Rasie Clan seems to have their own way of dealing with one of them. So we need to be able to do something about the other two. The best way is to use two combat formations at the same time."

Only now did Wang Mo understand the reason. But he had to admit that Krune is right. It's just that after what Krune provided to their formation during that little training time, he felt like it was an enormous loss to have Krune leaving it.

"Very well."

Krune nodded and then told Feifei with a Divine Sense message.

"It's better for you to stay with them too. Only with your Improved Destiny Core can they have a chance against those guys. I will use my group to try to get rid of one of them as fast as possible."

Feifei nodded and didn't move away from Wang Mo's group. That made them sigh in relief. If she wasn't going with Krune now, then it meant that what they had before was really just a deal, and now it was over. So in their eyes, Feifei had chosen to stay with them.

Uriu, who hadn't said anything so far, came close to Krune.

"I will be joining your group them. I have a life core, which is especially efficient against that guy with a Death Core. It should give us a big advantage."

He didn't say it, but another reason was that he wanted to avenge his friends from the Spiritas Kingdom too.

Krune nodded and also passed to him that combat formation. They had little time to practice it, but with Krune's understanding and pointers, they still took a basic grasp in the following time.

While all that was happening, they were also moving along with the barrier. That was the only reason why the Assassin leader hasn't caught up to them yet since they are moving in the same direction.

Also, they wanted to see how they would enter this light barrier. After all, that was supposed to be the condition to activate the teleport runestone formation and leave this place.

Suddenly, Krune heard Light Spirit's voice.

"A Divine Sense passed through you just now, it seems like they had come. This time, it isn't only one, but two instead."

Krune was surprised.

"Only two, not three?"

Light Spirit focused a bit and then confirmed.

"Yes, only two."

Krune then asked everyone to stop.

"They are here, I just felt their Divine Sense pass through us, and there is two of them now."

Everyone looked at Krune, surprised. None of them had felt anything, but Krune, at the 4th Stage of the Core Formation Realm, could feel those Divine Soul Realm Divine Senses. That was ridiculous in their eyes.

Light Spirit then started to give reports on their movements according to the Divine Sense.

"It seems like those two stopped as well. They are just observing us. They noticed that we already detected their presence, so they are probably biding their time to wait for their companions."

Hulibe Acrol narrowed his eyes. They don't know if three is the total number or if there are even more of them.

"We should take this chance to attack. If even more of them appear later, we might not be able to deal with them."

Krune and everyone else nodded, so they immediately took action.

On the other side, the Yano and Lanis noticed that their target stopped and are now moving in their direction. Yano felt surprised and then snorted.

"Do they think that they can deal with the two of us together? I wish to see how they are going to do that."

But just as Yanos was also about to dash forward to attack, Lanis put a hand on his shoulder and said.

"Let's retreat. Those kids from the Rasie Clan are with them, and you know very well what happened to Angil after that."

Lanis wasn't afraid of taking them all at once, but he was prioritizing the mission above everything else. So he decided to keep his distance while waiting for the others. Like that, they can join forces and get rid of all the trouble at once.

Yanos felt a little unwilling but still followed the orders.

Back at Krune's group, Light Spirit immediately told him what was happening. Krune then asked for everyone to stop.

"They are not coming. Instead, the assassins are keeping their distance while keeping their Divine Sense on us. It seems like they have no intention of starting a fight with us before their group is full."

Everyone stopped and then looked at Krune. At the moment, he was the only one who could feel the enemies Divine Sense.

"What do we do then, they are both at the Divine Soul Realm. If they decide to keep their distance, we won't be able to catch up."

Krune also didn't have many options at the moment. He then looked at Feifei to see if she could use her Destiny Core to find a way out.

Feifei also knew what Krune was thinking and had already started to do that. Still, it was quite hard to do when Divine Soul Realm cultivators were involved in the calculation.

Uriu Orion then said.

"In that case, let's keep moving along the barrier the same way we did before. There might have something somewhere that will allow us to enter. We might as well do like I did with that Death Core assassin and force them into a trap formation."

Krune and everyone else nodded, and they resumed their travel in the opposite direction of the assassins.

Sure enough, both Lanis and Yanos followed them from a distance.

Time passed, and soon, two hours went by. During this time, Lanis and Yano gathered with the guy who pursued Feifei and Krune. His name was Yunir, and he too wanted to attack straight away. But Lanis didn't allow it and said to wait for Gelius, who was coming to meet them at the moment.

Krune also informed everyone about the appearance of another assassin and the fact they still stayed behind. Even though they didn't attack straight away, that didn't make anyone happy. That just reinforced their conjecture that the enemy still had more members.

Suddenly, Feifei's eyes lit up!

"Found it! The entrance to the inner core region."

She had been using her Destiny Core to try to calculate its position for a long time, and her efforts were finally rewarded in the end.

Everyone heard that, and their eyes lit up too!

"No wonder we couldn't find it. That is because the entrance isn't on the barrier itself. In fact, this light barrier is entirely closed, and there are no gaps. The entrance is a teleport formation instead. it is around an hour away from here in that direction."

Feifei then pointed to a direction on the opposite side of the light barrier, which took everyone aback. No wonder the Sect gave them around six months to complete this challenge. If they didn't have Feifei's Destiny Core, there was no way they could have found it anytime soon. They would probably spend a lot of time around the barrier, trying to finding something that didn't even exist!

They immediately moved in the direction that Feifei pointed.

Lanis, Yano, and Yunir noticed their change in direction and were puzzled.

"Did they give up trying to find an entrance?"

Lanis pondered a bit.

"I don't think it is the reason. Remember that Feifei has prediction abilities, so it was probably because of her that they changed direction."

The other two nodded.

"Should we attack straight away, then?"

Lanis also thought that it would be the best option to prevent Feifei from pulling some tricks once more. But just as he was about to give his order, he received a message from Gelius, which made his eyes lit up!

"Gelius is almost here already. Let's wait for him and then get over with it."

Hearing that their only Major Core member was close by made Yano and Yunir excited.

"Great! Now I want to see just how they are going to escape from us."

Back at Krune's group side, Feifei was still using her Destiny Core to predict the situation ahead when suddenly, she noticed something.

"Everyone, be careful. It seems that it won't be easy to use that Teleport Formation."

The closer they get to the teleport formation, the easier it is for Feifei to use her abilities, or so it was supposed to be. But surprisingly, she is having problems doing so. That means that the level of the dangers in that place is definitely above her cultivation level.

Krune immediately got excited after hearing that!

"That's great! This is exactly the type of situation that we need at the moment."

Everyone understood what he meant and nodded. Indeed, only with further variables would they have a chance against their enemies. Not to mention, there is another thing that Krune wants to try out.
