Chapter 101 - Im Starting to Fell Jealous! (1/2)

Ao noticed something strange and asked what's going on.

”Well, I've just seen Lofa entering my Divine Sense range.”

Arlan and Ao were surprised, it's not very easy to encounter a specific person in a place as big as this testing zone.

”Quite a coincidence indeed. Did she get together with the people of the Ice Continent?”

Krune shook his head.

”That's the weird part, she is alone. And she is moving pretty fast too. It seems like she is running from something, but I can't see anything in my Divine Sense.”

Not only Krune, but Ao and Arlan were puzzled with that. Is there really some beast or cultivator that can hide from Krune's Divine Sense? They looked at each other and discarded that idea, it's too improbable.

”Want to take a look?”

Ao and Arlan looked at each other and nodded in the end. Loja is still part of their Mercenary Guild Alliance after all. Besides, it's not like it will take too long anyway. But just as they were about to move out, Krune noticed another one entering his Divine Sense.

”Not good, there is a Core Formation Demon Beast after her.”

Hearing that, they immediately set out at full speed. At the same time, Krune used his Divine Sense to tell Lofa to move in their direction. Lofa was already losing her hopes when she suddenly heard Krune's voice. With no other choice, she immediately followed the directions provided by him. Although Lofa was moving towards them, the Demon beast was too fast! At this speed, it would reach her in time. Krune looked at Ao and Arlan and they nodded at each other, they took out their swords and Krune touched them for a few seconds. After that, Krune left straight away.

His eyes turned sharp and the power of the tribulation lightning start to revolve around his body, and with a flash of purple light, Krune disappeared from his spot!

”Tribulation Lightning Movement, 40%!”

Krune had reached the conclusion that for him to not damage his body, 30% was the limit. But if he wants to reach Lofa in time, he still needs to pay a small price. Arlan and Ao knew about the fact that he could move faster, but it was still a sight to behold when he did so. That tribulation lightning was really overpowered!

Lofa kept fleeing when suddenly, she heard a voice from behind.

”Aren't you quite fast at running? Too bad though, it wasn't fast enough.”

It was the same Fire Eagle from before. It was looking for Krune and his team when Lofa's group entered its Divine Sense. Lofa and her group had come after noticing the commotion from the nearby demon beasts. So they decided to check and maybe they would be lucky enough to get a black token. They had battled other teams but fled quite a few times. In the end, they were still lucky enough to gather two black tokens, needing only one more to get the three necessary.

Unfortunately, they were spotted by the fire eagle who ambushed them. The leader of their group was caught off guard and killed before he could even use their blue token. But that wasn't all. The eagle is bound by a contract, so it can't just let the team go to start with; otherwise, the fire eagle wouldn't even bother with the rest of the team after it got the black tokens. Lofa's team immediately choose to separate since they weren't the eagle's match. That was their only chance to survive.

Turns out that Lofa was quite lucky and the eagle targeted another member first. But in the end, it still caught up to her, and this is the final situation.

The fire eagle was sure to catch her soon but then it noticed someone entering its Divine Sense as well. After seeing who it was, it was overjoyed. That guy completely fitted the description given by the other demon beasts, which means that he has the black wolf's black tokens and their own as well. But its happy face disappeared in the next second. That's because it noticed that Krune's speed wasn't the least bit lower than its own!

'How can a Foundation Establishment be so fast?'

But the eagle didn't give up. It was obvious that Krune was coming for the female human cultivator in front of him. Unfortunately for it, Lofa was moving in Krune's direction.

'I refuse to believe you can get to her before me!'

The eagle then increased its speed once again. If it can get to Lofa first, it might be able to use her to force Krune's black tokens out. Krune also noticed that change and release more tribulation lighting power.

”50%!”

Little light saw that and said.

”Your human form isn't very good to control the tribulation power. If you go back to your wisp form, you should be able to use 50% without suffering any damage.”

Krune knew that. But that also means that his true form would be found out. Although he wants to help Lofa, he won't risk that much for her. It is because he is confident to hold the eagle back that he decided to help to start with. Not to mention that Ao and Arlan would take part in the battle very soon. This much body damage wouldn't take long to heal anyway.

Lofa noticed Krune in the distance and was delighted, just as she was about to call his name, she heard a Divine Sense scream.

”Get down!”

Loja was alarmed with that but did as she was told.

Boom!

Right above her, several blue and red colored hexagonal shields formed a barrier and were struck by a gigantic fireball. Lofa saw that and her soul almost left her body. If Krune hadn't warned her in time, she would have been burnt to the point that even her bones wouldn't remain. But she didn't delay even for a second, it was obvious that the situation was dire. So she immediately dashed in Krune's direction.

The fire eagle's eyes almost popped out of their sockets. How can a Foundation Establishment control so many of them? Even it would have a hard time controlling that number of spiritual equipment, and it could see that Krune had even more around him that he didn't use to resist that last attack.

It's not that Krune didn't want to use them, but because they would be damaged instead. Only his shields with water and fire elements could resist that explosion without being harmed. The water element shields were the weakness of fire element to start with, while the fire element shields could resist attacks of the same element. By using water shields in the center and fire on the borders, Krune was able to block out the attack.

As soon as Loja reached Krune, he grabbed her waist and said.

”Hold tight!”

Lofa got a little embarrassed but had no time to think, so she did as Krune told her.

After that, he immediately retreated. This time, he went back to using 30% of tribulation lighting in his movement technique. The eagle noticed that he was a lot slower and immediately sent a barrage of attacks. But it soon found out that Krune's shields and defense skills were annoying as hell!
