275 Instinc (1/2)
As expected, Krune and Feifei took around a week to arrive at the Elemental Sect in the Etinol Planet. Once there, they were guided to a field where all the other cultivators and demon beasts were waiting.
Krune didn't bring Dilo this time since no Soul Forging Realm and above could enter the Elemental Path anyway. So they left him back since he was still in the middle of creation his on domain.
Krune looked at the time and commented.
”It seems like we have to wait one more day before the Elemental Path opens. Still, I didn't expect to see so many Core Formation Realm cultivators and demon beasts as well.”
Feifei nodded.
”Indeed. There was nothing in the records probably because the ones who reported felt like it wasn't worth the time to talk about them. This is, after all, a mission made for the Divine Soul Realm level.”
While Feifei and Krune were discussing what they should do, a female cultivator approached them to talk. Or better, she wanted to speak with Feifei only.
”Hello there! Are you perhaps looking for a group to join?”
Feifei looked at Krune, and they nodded at each other. Krune and Feifei were already expecting that Krune would be ignored because of his Core Formation Realm cultivation. They then agreed that Feifei would be the one doing the talk this time around.
”Indeed. My friend and I are here to grab a few Elemental Flowers. We are planning to use them for Law comprehension.”
The other part thought that Krune and Feifei were talking about using it in the future, so she didn't mind it.
”That's perfect. My name is Marshine Xarain, I'm a 3rd Stage Divine Soul Realm Female Cultivator from Daiona Planet in the Kraven Solar System.”
Feifei and Krune then introduced themselves as well.
”I'm Wulia Feier, 1st Stage Divine Soul Realm from Riren Planet in the Rimeria Solar System.”
Krune did the same, it's just that he decided to use Jolk's name and appearance from before.
”I'm Jolk, 9th-”
Marshine cut Krune in the middle of his introduction.
”Oh, right. There is no need for you to do that, I'm only interested in your friend here. Anyone below the Divine Soul Realm will be of little help anyway.”
She then looked at Feifei, or better, Feier, and said.
”I'm organizing a group to enter the Elemental Path to collect Elemental Flowers. So far, I have gathered another three Divine Soul Realm members. We are all between the 2nd and 4th Stages. So how about that, would you like to join?”
Feifei then said.
”I would not mind taking a look at your group, but my friend Jolk here has to come with me.”
Marshine sighed and then said.
”I don't mind if you are bringing him together, but you will have to share your spoils with him. Are you okay with that?”
If anything, this situation played very well in their favor. Krune and Feifei know that there is nothing better than being underestimated. Especially in Krune's case.
Feifei and Krune followed Marshine to a conner were the other three members were waiting. Even though they were in their human forms, Krune and Feifei could tell that two of them were Demon Beasts through their auras.
Marshine then introduced everyone.
”This man here is a Human Cultivator just like me, Filio Humme.”
Filio looked quite old and had a big jug of wine on his hand. He took a huge sip and then greeted Feifei and Krune.
”Hey there. I'm a Divine Soul Realm cultivator at the 2nd Stage. Let's get well together.”
Marshine continued.
”As for those two here, they are known as the black brothers. Or at least, that's what they told me when they arrived here. They are both demon beasts from the Krakat Race. A specie of cougar with extreme sharp instincts.”
The older brother laughed and said.
”Haha! Our race is indeed known for having sharp instincts. Still, if we are talking about talent, then I pale in comparison to my younger brother here in this area. Anyway, I'm a Divine Soul Realm Demon Beast at the 4th Stage. You can call me Tinnian.”
He looked at Krune, who was beside Feifei and then asked.
”Why do we have a Core Formation Realm here? It couldn't be th-”
Just as Tinnio was about to continue talking, his younger brother stopped him with one of his hands.
