Chapter 30 - This is not fair! (2/2)
”Alright everyone, lets go, we are just three days away from Kaley City, from here onward the number of bandits should decrease too.”
They set forth, everyone was in quite good mood, this travel had been quite easygoing so far thanks to Krune and Yusa who joined the group later.
---
It was already getting dark again when Krune suddenly felt a Divine Sense pass over him, he then used his own Divine Sense which was now capable of reaching over six kilometers, sure enough, he found a group of Foundation Establishment cultivators moving in their direction at full speed, it was obviously not a friendly encounter.
”Ao, prepared everyone for battle, ten Foundation Establishment cultivators are moving at full speed in our direction, they look like bandits!”
Ao Sulian was alarmed, but he came to know during their travel that Krune's Divine Sense was out of the charts, it was much stronger than his one.
”Everyone, battle formation, there is ten Foundation Establishments coming, but we have quite a lot Qi Condensation ones, use three or four of you to form a small formation to deal with one of them, hurry, they are almost here.”
Krune was already using his Divine Sense to track them, he used it to inform the group from where and when they would appear, and as expected, those guys came just like he said.
Those ten Foundation Establishment bandits didn't say anything and attacked the group straight away, their orders were for them to eliminate all witnesses and bring Krune back.
Immediately, chaos descended in the group, their opponents were much stronger than them, Ao Sulian and Yusa Shen have the strongest cultivations at the 3rd stage of the Foundation Establishment each, but the weakest member of the other group had the same strength.
Yusa was dealing with two at the same time, at first there was only one at her, but that bandit noticed that he wasn't her match on a one vs one and immediately called for reinforcements to help deal with her, Ao Sulian was fighting one of the 4st stage, as a mercenary himself, he also could fight those at higher levels, his two Foundation Establishment friends were fighting one each, but they were clearly in disadvantage, their cultivation is lower and they are ordinary cultivators after all.
The Qi Condensation groups were fighting three enemies using their advantage in numbers, but they also seemed at the losing side.
Krune himself was fighting only one, it's just that the guy he was against had a cultivation at the 5th stage, much stronger than the others. Krune didn't mind though, with his last breakthrough to the 2nd stage he could defeat this enemy very easy, the problem was that there was one Foundation Establishment cultivator that hadn't joined the fray, he just kept looking at how things were going. Krune thought that he was there to prevent anyone from escaping.
'I can't show my powers yet, I have to ensure that I can get rid of at least three or more of them so that I won't need to take care of the others while dealing with that guy, he is clearly strong than any of the others.'
Krune pondered for a bit and suddenly, his eyes lit up! He then send a Divine Sense message to Yusa and Ao.
'Let's get together, try to guide your enemies to me, I will do the same, trust me.'
Ao and Yusa were taken aback, but their situation is dire and don't have any other options to start with, so they slowly moved in Krune's direction, the enemy noticed it but didn't care, they didn't think that they would be able to do anything in this situation.
As soon as the enemy got close enough, Krune smiled.
'Let's see if the water prison and I got from Yusa is really as good as I think.'
He then jumped in the air, focused all his spiritual energy in the water element, and attacked!
”Water Prison!”
Yusa was alarmed! Why is him using water prison? This skill takes two to three seconds to be fully formed, with their enemies cultivation, they will be long gone before the prison can be formed. But what she saw after that made she think whether she had ever really used water prison in her life before, that's because Krune's water prison was huge! Not only was it enormous, he only took one second to create that gigantic water prison! She immediately thought.
”This is nor FAIR!”
But before she could even think further, she noticed that both her and Ao Sulian were also inside the water prison, she had used water prison thousands of times, she knows that the next part would be to use water blades to crush the enemies, the problem is, she had never been able to control the direction of the water blades! Doesn't it mean that both her and Ao will also be crushed by it?
But her worries only lasted for another second, there was water blades everywhere, but not a single one hit her or Ao beside her, what kind of monstrous control is that?
One must remember that Krune's main attack skill has always been his wind and blazing wind blades, his control with this type of skill had long since surpassed common knowledge.
All the enemies got alarmed, even the leader outside immediately rushed forward, they know that the situation turned around, if they don't stop break the water prison straight away, their four companions inside will die and they will lose their Foundation Establishment numbers advantage, but how could the ones outside let they do as they please? They understood that this was the turning point, they must stop the enemy from interfering at all costs!
In the end the only one who made it to the water prison was the leader, but he was a water element expert too, he was confident that with his cultivation he could totally break that water prison apart, he used his strongest skill at the prison straight away!
”Myriad Water Dragons!”
Tens of water dragons formed around him, each with the size of a grown man, they all hit the water prison at the same time!
Too bad though, who is Krune? He is the first wisp to ever create an universe as foundation and the proud user of the real Myriad Energies technique! Not to mention that with the breakthrough from last night, he prowess just got higher! His water prison couldn't be broken so easily! But he still had a hard time controlling the prison and making sure that the water blades weren't hitting Ao and Yusa. The enemy leader's face got cold, his strongest attack made the water prison tremble all over, it was on the verge of breaking apart, but it still resisted, he was just about to use the same attack again when he suddenly heard four cries coming from the water prison, he looked inside and his face got gloomy.
Ao and Yusa noticed that Krune had to ability to control the water blades inside the water prison, the enemies inside were having a hard time defending against them, since that's the case, why should Yusa and Ao stay put doing nothing? They immediately attacked when they noticed that, the water blades were already taking their entire attention, they didn't have time to pay attention to Yusa or Ao, the result was a fatal attack directed at them from those two, the four of them died just like that.
The leader outside didn't even have the time to finish forming his second Myriad Water Dragons before it was already over.
The water prison collapsed right after, since there is no enemies inside anymore, there is no reason for keep it running. Water spread everywhere, but Krune's Divine Sense didn't leave the enemy's leader for even a second, the battle reached a stalemate and both sides separated, they were waiting to see who would make the first move.
