202 Should we attack? (1/2)
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.
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!”
