Chapter 120 - Understanding the Divine Path Sect. (1/2)
The core region isn't as big as the inner region, much less the outer region, but it still took Krune over a week to leave it. He then accelerated and left the core region behind as fast as possible. After getting some distance away, he brought Shinja, Yusa, and Ao out as well. That's because it would look like they are on a mission and catch less attention.
The inner regions also have Core Formation Realm Demon Beasts, and of course, the Divine Soul Ream ones watching over the place. But there are also a lot of high-level Foundation Establishment and low-level Core Formation like Krune's team.
Krune's group even purposely bumped in some demon beasts on the way to fight. That made it much more unlikely for someone to suspect them. After traveling for an entire week, they were finally out of the inner region as well.
It wasn't before two weeks after Krune left the core region that they finally arrived at Harta City. But they didn't stay for long. After paying the fee for the teleport, they went back to the Mercenary Headquarters.
As soon as Krune arrived, Krune received a message from the cultivators looking over the teleport formation that Bary wanted to see him.
”Let's go there.”
In the office, they noticed that Mile was there as well. Bary looked at them and said.
”I hope you don't go out during the next months to prevent anything wrong from happening.”
Krune and the others immediately nodded.
”Alright then, Mile told me everything. So you now have that pocket dimension and a lot of high-level wisps inside. But what are you planning to do?”
Krune pondered a bit and said.
”I'm planning to leave it with my disciple. He is a lot more involved in gathering wisps than I am, so it would be better if he had it with him when he goes out.”
Bary frowned after hearing that.
”I would advise not doing that. This spatial box that you have is a Two Silver Stars spiritual spatial equipment, not something that you could acquire easily in our Makui Planet. The majority wouldn't recognize its level, but those who did would definitely take it away. And once they find the wisps inside, their fate will be pretty much sealed.”
Krune couldn't help but admit that it was true; it would be too dangerous. Bary then looked at him and said.
”You should bring it with you. It might be considered a treasure here in the Makui Planet, but it is nothing in the eyes of the Divine Path Sect. I reckon that their disciples all have Silver Stars Equipment at the very least. Some inner and core disciples might even have Golden Stars level. So no one will care about your spatial box.”
Krune heard and then asked.
”But is it okay to bring more cultivators and demon beasts with me? They might not care about the box itself, but I refuse to believe that they won't notice the pocket dimension and those who are staying inside. I was also expecting to leave my disciple behind so that he could gather some experience.”
Bary heard that and started to laugh.
”Seems like you really know very little about the Divine Path Sect. No, you know very little about the Big Four instead.”
Not only Krune, everyone else except Mile was puzzled.
”To be honest, I'm don't the exact details. But I do know that the Divine Path Sect, like any other of the Big Four, is an all-encompassing entity. Just how many cultivators and demon beasts stop there daily? The number is simply frightening! So they need a lot of menial disciples too. Another thing is that you can't hunt any other race there, wisps included.”
Krune had heard something about it before, but he thought that it only applied to the disciples who entered the Sect formally. Bary then continued.
”It is extremely common for the new disciples who pass the test to bring their own subordinates. They can even be considered menial disciples if they show that they can contribute to the Sect's management. As long as you are a real disciple, your subordinates will be under the protection of the Divine Path Sect too.”
Krune then shook his head.
”That would go against my plans, I don't want a safe place for the wisps to live. What I want is a place for them to grow stronger. That's also why I was planning to send Lakin out to gain some experience by himself. As a Divine Sect Disciple, there is no doubt that I will get several missions where I can temper myself. But everyone else will stay behind living a comfortable life. That will not work since if I die, they will be done for.”
Bary was surprised with Krune's determination, how come he says that his disciple is more focused than him in protecting the wisps?
”That is also not a problem, the menial disciples can also take missions themselves. Of course, those missions would not be as important or well rewarded as the real disciples. But I reckon that this would be just perfect for what you plan to do.”
Krune seemed to get interested now. That would indeed be very convenient. Bary noticed that and struck the iron while it was hot.
”Lastly, the wisps that aren't at the Foundation Establishment could still live on the premises of the Sect. Although there is no doubt that they would be looked down upon because they are wisps. The cultivators and demon beasts inside the sect would never take them as cultivation resources. First, because they all know that cultivating with wisps is prejudicial to their foundations. And second, because it would go against the sect rules to attack anyone without a valid reason.”
