Is that a Wisp?

Chapter 202 Should we attack?



Back inside the inner core region, Krune's group was looking around after they destroyed the Teleport Formation. They were expecting that the other side would have some guardians, demon beasts, or traps waiting for them. But surprisingly, there was nothing at all, the place was completely empty.

Wang Ting then wondered.

"Could it be that the demon beasts didn't know how to use the teleport formation, so no one ever came here through it?"

Hulibe Acrol shook his head.

"It doesn't matter how ill-informed those demon beasts are, they should at least know how to use the teleport formation. For them to never come here, it is more like an order left behind by the owner of the realm."

Hulibe knew that Feifei could make predictions, so he was going to ask her if she could see anything. But when he looked in her direction, he noticed that she looked exhausted. Only then did he remember that to use divination with so many Divine Soul Realm involved should have taken a lot of effort. In fact, as said before, Feifei couldn't predict more than one Divine Soul Realm cultivator. It was because her focus was not on them but on the route that she was able to pull that off.

Krune also noticed that, but there wasn't much he could do either. Feifei could only recover by herself. Fortunately, thanks to Feifei's improved Destiny Core, she didn't have to deal with heaven's backlash, so she just needed time to take a breath.

Krune was just about to talk as well when suddenly, everyone heard a voice coming from everywhere.

"So, you are the first ones to appear, uh?"

Immediately, everyone raised their guard while spreading their Divine Sense to see from where it was coming from. But even Krune, the one with the largest Divine Sense, couldn't find even a shadow.

"You can already stop trying to find me. First of all, I don't even have a physical body. My name is Xanio Faren, the Will of the previous owner of this realm and also the one responsible for managing it."

Krune immediately understood.

'He is basically like Hasik from my old Rainbow Sect.'

The voice then continued.

"I was left behind by the real Xanio with hopes of finding an inheritor for him. But no one showed even after hundreds of thousands of years. Even this Will that my real self left behind in a hibernating state was getting close from dissipation. But my real self had predicted that a successor would definitely appear, so I kept waiting. Sure enough, here you are."

Krune and everyone else was hearing that, but they didn't seem to have too much of a reaction. Every single one of them came from the top powers of the entire western protectorate. So at most, they will consider anything they get here as some extra income like Juniu and the others did.

But there was one person with a different thought, and that was Feifei. Ever since she arrived at the light barrier, she felt like something inside was 'calling' her. As mentioned before, the Divine Path Sect only made a quick check to see if the realm was stable and didn't go too far. To deal with the dangers inside would be up to the disciples themselves, and that was the essence of this training.

Suddenly, the place underneath where Feifei was resting started to shine! Krune and everyone were taken aback. Krune had the fastest reaction, he immediately used his Tribulation Lightning at 100% and dashed in her direction. Still, it was too late. Even Feifei herself barely had time to even notice what was happening before disappearing!

Krune then immediately shouted.

"Where is she?!"

Krune wasn't the only one concerned, but everyone else too. It is just that the rest were expecting to rely on Feifei prediction ability. Different from Krune, who was really worried about the person herself. Of course, the Wang Clan guys had one more reason to be concerned. The fact the grand elder will take their heads if something happens to Feifei.

The voice went silent for a moment and then said.

"It is as I said, a successor has appeared. There is no need for you guys to worry, I have no intention of injuring her at all."

"My real self had a Destiny Core as well, so I knew from the start that that girl was a Destiny Core user. My real self didn't simply use the Core for predictions, though. For hundreds of thousands of years, he really studied it deeply. He studied his destiny core to the point where he almost destroyed it several times. All for a single purpose, or to be more precise, because of a legend."

"I believe that between you all, some definitely are Major Core owners, right? So there is no doubt that you heard about this legend as well."

Hulibe, Uriu, and Krune were the first ones to connect the points.

"The thing about the Heavenly Core being, in fact, the evolution of one of the other nine Major Cores, correct?"

The voice agreed.

"Correct!"

He then continued.

"What my real self studied was a way of making his Destiny Core evolve into a Heavenly Core. Still, that's all I can tell you at the moment, the rest will be up to that girl whether she wants to talk or not. Although I say inheritance, it isn't entirely correct. My real self left behind a few ways of using his Destiny Core that he found during his studies. But the most valuable thing is the knowledge about his research, which will be imparted to her."

Hulibe started to think. The Heavenly Core is something that was researched not only by this guy but by the entire universe. He doesn't believe that this Xanio has found anything that others haven't already. In the end, all the researches about this topic turned out to be fruitless.

But there is that rumor that his Ancestor told him. A story that Feifei might have a Heavenly Core. Still, from what he saw so far, Feifei's Major Core doesn't seem anything more than a Destiny Core. If there was anything different, it was the fact that her predictions ability seemed to be much better than what his Ancestor told him. The Rasie Clan obviously also had other Destiny Core users. Still, from what he knows, they aren't as good as Feifei with it.

'Could the Heavenly Core and Feifei's Core really be related? It doesn't seem like it, though. There is way too little information about the Heavenly Core. Still, one thing is sure, the Heavenly Core was supposed to be a lot more powerful and useful than Feifei's.'

Hulibe then put those thoughts on the back of his mind and went back to the issues at hand.

"I don't care about the inheritance, our problem at the moment are the assassins outside. They have higher cultivation than us and are definitely coming here. Without Feifei's prediction abilities, it will get really hard to deal with them."

The voice then laughed.

"That has nothing to do with me. My objective was to find a successor, and that's what I did. Now I only need to protect her until she finishes acquiring all the knowledge."

Because Krune had been in his wisp form until now, no one could check his expression. But at the moment, he is really fuming!

'My master is definitely a descendant of this guy, I'm sure about it! Both of them forcefully took a disciple against their Will. What is this, some kind of ill fate?'

But then he calmed down, what matters at the moment is that Feifei seems to be safe. Krune only has to think of a way to deal with those assassins outside. He isn't idiot, considering this place size, there are definitely other teleport formations connecting to this place somewhere.

"Xanio, you don't care about what happens, but you also don't mind if we take a look around, right?"

The voice then confirmed.

"Indeed, as long as you keep away from the center, of course. It is not that I don't want you to go there. It is just that if you are not at least at the Void Breaking Realm, you will definitely die if you enter that place. Unfortunately for you, this realm only allows those with cultivation in the Divine Soul Realm or lower to enter. Anyone who enters that place is pretty much signing their suicide letter."

Krune then thought about something else and asked.

"Can you tell us where the other teleport formations are? As long as we destroy them, they won't be able to teleport here, right?"

When everyone heard that, their eyes lit up! That's right! They have the teleport runestones that can bring them outside. Although it is not working at the moment, once the dimensional realm reconnects with the outside, they will be able to use it. All they need to do is to keep those guys far away until that time.

Unfortunately, Xanio threw a bucket of cold water on their heads.

"Oh, you talking about the fact the protection formation? Don't worry about that, it will disappear very soon."

Krune and the others almost vomited blood!

"What do you mean it's going to disappear?"

Xanio then said.

"Now that an inheritor was found, all the energy that is keeping that barrier activated is being redirected to the central building. It is because of this that the central building defenses can hold off even Void Breaking Realm cultivators and demon beasts. Simply put, there is no more energy to keep the barrier on."

Everyone felt like cursing this guy. Still, this is nothing more than a Will left behind, the real one had left a long time ago already. He might even be dead now.

Krune and the others decided to ignore him for now and think about a way to deal with those guys outside.

Fortunately for them, the assassins didn't know that, so they were waiting until Yano recovers enough to move on. Still, once that huge light barrier disappears, there will be no way they can't see what is happening.

Krune started to think and then told everyone.

"Maybe, we should be the ones attacking instead."
