Is that a Wisp?

Chapter 337 Three Choices

Krune returned to his group and asked their conditions.

"We are fine. Feifei is very exhausted due to the continuous use of her Destiny Major Divine Soul. Still, thanks to that, we avoided any casualties in our main group."

Of course, his conversation was made through Divine Sense with Krune's real group only.

"At the moment, you should think about what to do with everyone else. Take a look around."

Sure enough, Krune's display had caught everyone's attention. He was still in the 4th Stage of the Divine Soul Realm, and he is even a wisp. It doesn't matter if they were geniuses or not, none of them could possibly do what he did. No one had seen such a strong wisp before in their lives.

Krune shook his head and then said.

"It doesn't matter. My combat power is here exactly for moments like that. What would be the use to hide everything and died in the end? Hiding my identity as a wisp might be impossible now, but it is not like they can do anything about that either."

While Krune was talking with his Group through Divine Sense, the others were also talking about him. The only ones that felt somewhat assured were the 5th Stage Soul Forging Realms, who could also fight above their level. Although they didn't have an attack as potent as Krune's Tribulation Cannon, they also saw just how long it took for him to prepare that thing. In a battle at their level, such a long charging time would be deadly.

Of course, none of them were intending to start a fight against that wisp. Krune is one of the leading characters in this exploration, and his group had guided them through the best rewards. Another reason is the fact that Krune kept the same stance until now. No one in his group ever fought for an item that had already been acquired by someone else.

Of course, there is also the fact that no amazing treasure or something like that has appeared yet. If it had, then the outcome would probably be different. Finally, there is the fact that Krune's group is far outnumbered when you consider the rest. That also gave them some insurance.

Sometime later, the formation in the room lost its power, and the passage ahead was finally open. Right in front of it, a small pillar appeared, and a crystal was now placed on the top. Almost everyone here had seen Krune using a similar thing before, so they knew that it was the key to open the next Bubble Realm.

Krune noticed that everyone was looking at him and then shrugged his shoulder.

"It's just the key to the next realm. If you want to take it, go ahead. It matters little who will open the next door anyway."

In fact, Krune just didn't want to be the one to do that.

In the end, no one felt like it was something worth fighting for either. When a random cultivator came forward and took it, the others just pretended that they didn't see anything. Of course, they paid attention to that cultivator to make sure that he would at least use it to open the next Bubble Realm.

One of the Demon Beasts then suggested.

"Before we keep moving, let's sit down and recover our energies. There is a lot of us with severe injuries as well. In case the things ahead turn for the bad, it would be better to be in peak condition."

No one had anything against that beast's idea. Everyone then found a corner for themselves and started to recover. Krune and the others were no exception. Especially Krune and Feifei. Krune had used a lot of his reserved Tribulation Lightning Power while Feifei had to recover from the constant use of her Destiny Divine Soul.

Krune also used this chance to let Heavin awake again. While he was recovering, he explained everything to his Divine Soul.

Because a few of the participants had severe injuries, everyone had to wait for a few hours before they were fully recovered. No one complained, though. If it was them, they would want to have the time to recover as well.

They stayed in place for around four hours before everything was ready. Krune and the other's group then stepped outside of that room and continued moving ahead.

The group had to walk just for another 10 minutes until they finally arrived at the next Realm Door. But there was one thing different this time. Instead of a single door, there were three of them. Unfortunately, there were no marks or anything else that could tell what to expect on the other side.

Krune took a look at Rarol and saw him shooking his head.

"I have no idea either."

There was only one crystal. So they would need to choose one of the three doors. Everyone then looked at that cultivator and waited. That guy felt some pressure with all the eyes on him, but since he couldn't see any difference either, he just selected a random one.

But just as he brought the crystal out of his spatial ring, the three doors started to shine. Everyone immediately took some distance from then just to be safe. A few seconds later, they noticed what it was now possible to see the other side. However, the seal was still on the door, so they couldn't pass any one of them.

"The first has a snowy climate, the second looks like a desert, and the third is a forest. Which one should we chose?"

One demon beast came forward and then said.

"It would be better to select the door, which is most suited to us. Let's simply go by vote. Gather in front of the door that you wish to enter. The door that has the highest number of cultivators and demon beasts will be the chosen one."

Krune smiled after hearing that. He was pretty sure that the door he selected would be the one with the least amount. That's because no one would want to give him a field advantage.

"Since that's the case, I might as well select a random one."

Krune didn't really mind any of them. So it didn't matter which one was selected in the end. But he still had to consider his group. So after he talked with the others through Divine Sense, he positioned himself in front of the Snowy Realm door. Together with him were Ruik and Feifei. Tiane, Xankruan, and Rarol paused in front of the Desert Realm while the rest went for the Forest.

Considering everyone's laws, they decided that the Desert or the Forest would be the best choices. Especially the Forest since Krune, Ruik, and Xankruan lived in such an environment before for a long time.

Just as Krune expected, only a few moved in front of his door, the rest went either to the Desert or the Forest. In the end, the door with the highest number was the Forest. The others also thought that Krune might be trying to mislead them. Still, there would be no meaning to keep thinking about that.

The reason why the Forest was selected was that they can skill remember Krune's Burnnihilation Domain. The desert was probably going to be a place where the Fire laws could be used more naturally, so they took the Forest instead. Krune, Ruik, and Xankruan looked at each other and smiled.

That cultivator sighed in relief. At least, the decision wasn't made by him alone, so the others won't be able to complain if something goes wrong there. He brought out the crystal and placed it in front of the Forest Bubble Realm. Just like before, the crystal touched the door and disappeared inside.

The door then slowly opened, and the Forest bubble Realm was finally accessible for all the groups. By this point, no one acted hastily anymore. After the Dragon's fight, their number had been reduced by almost 30%, so no one wanted to become the next sacrifice. Unless something worth fighting for appeared, no one would dash forward.

Everyone started to enter slowly and appear on the other side. Sure enough, their Divine Sense was still restricted. Krune's one could only reach 3 km again. Because it was hard to see through the trees and Divine Sense wasn't very effective, some of them tried to fly above the trees.

Unfortunately, just as they were about halfway up, they lost their ability to fly and fell. Krune and the others tried as well, and sure enough, they couldn't go higher than a few meters. Everyone could still fly, but it didn't matter much since they couldn't go above the trees.

Some tried to use a few techniques that would allow them to see from a higher point, but even those didn't work. It was obvious that this Forest Bubble Realm was made so that they couldn't avoid it.

Krune then used a Wind Blade and tried to cut down the trees. But even that didn't work. His Wind Blades could at most cut halfway through them. Considering the number of trees, it would be a waste of energy to try to cut them all.

Noticing that no one would be able to avoid the Forest environment, Krune and his group started to move forward. They didn't have much of a choice since this realm also didn't allow one to go back to the previous one. Also, everyone noticed that just a few hundreds of meters behind, the edge of this Bubble Realm could be seen with their Divine Senses.

At first, nothing was different. It was really just like any other Forest. But at some point, a Demon Beast appeared. There was one thing weird, though. The moment that everyone noticed this Demon Beast, it was already charging at them. Krune looked at it with his Divine Sense and narrowed his eyes.

"I don't think it has any sentience."

Joiu, who was beside Krune, nodded his head.

"There is nothing wrong with it. You can't possibly provide enough Demon Beasts or Cultivators for all the inheritances. So it is very reasonable for Inheritances like this one to use formations to reproduce this kind of beasts. Most likely, we are going to see a few cultivators soon as well."

The Demon Beast was quickly dealt with since it was only in the 3rd of the Divine Soul Realm. The biggest majority here at the moment could smash it anytime they wanted. That beast then disappeared as if it had never been there to start with.

Sure enough, Krune saw a cultivator a few minutes later. Just like the demon beast, it already appeared inside everyone's Divine Sense charging at them. As Joiu mentioned, the cultivator also disappeared after being defeated.

This kind of situation continued, but the intervals in which those demon beasts and cultivators appeared started to get smaller. Not only that, but their strength also increased with time.

Krune then sent a Divine Sense message to his group.

"Are you thinking the same as me?"

Feifei and the others nodded.

"It seems like this is some kind of endurance trial."

Krune agreed with that answer.

"In that case, it might be a bad idea if we keep moving this slow."
