283 First Look Inside (1/2)

Hiro felt like crying already.

'Easy? What was easy? Open the barrier? Controlling the Elemental laws? No, wait! Since when have you comprehended sub-laws from each element? No, forget that for now, I just said that it would take several days of practice to synch the barrier and the user's laws. Aren't you a little too fast? No, wait again! He did that just as I said it, didn't he? It was on purpose, right? Right?! He was definitely trying to pull my leg!'

Krune had no idea about what was passing inside Hiro's head, nor did he care. He just looked at everyone and asked.

”Are you guys going to keep looking? Shouldn't we enter before the other teams notice it?”

Only then did Hiro come back to himself and immediately sent the order to his group through Divine Sense.

”We are going in!”

Just as everyone started to pass through the barrier, they heard a scream from behind.

”Hiro, damn you! Don't think that I will let you go that easy!”

The other teams soon noticed what happened and rushed over as well.

Still, Hiro only smiled.

Doesn't matter how fast they are, they aren't beside the barrier like his team. As soon as they passed through, Krune entered and moved away from the entrance. With that, there was nothing more holding the Protection Formation from closing itself, so the entrance disappeared right after.

Lier and the other groups' leaders could only look at Hiro and his team on the other side while cursing him.

Hiro just laughed and then drew some words with Spiritual Energy on the air.

”I can't hear you, but I'm sure that you are congratulating me. Thank you for all your support, I will make sure to take a good look inside in your place instead.”

Even Krune felt like laughing after seeing that, let alone Feifei, who already burst out in laugher.

The other groups felt like cursing Hiro even more, but it was evident that their voice couldn't pass the formation as well.

Hiro then ignored everyone and proceed to follow his group.

But it was then that he remembered.

”Right! Jolk, you can control laws of the five elements?!”

Krune didn't deny it.

”I was just lucky during my cultivation. That's all.”

Hiro might be surprised by that discovery, but the ones really terrified were the members of his group. After all, Marshine and the others all know that Krune is still in the Core Formation Realm! He hasn't even entered the Divine Soul Realm yet.

Still, they decided to not say anything. One must remember they are the weakest link of this group.

Hiro decided to ignore it for now. The important is that they got inside before anyone else.

Hiro and his exploration team then separated from Krune's group.

”We are going to move on our own, so you guys do whatever you like as well. If it comes to a fight for a treasure, may the ones with the best skills win.”

Krune and the others nodded. This is indeed the best outcome for them. The member in Hiro's group with the lowest cultivation level was already at the 6th Stage of the Divine Soul Realm. If Krune and the others followed them, they would only get the leftovers. That's not what they wanted.

The reason that Krune allowed the entire Elemental Sect group to enter was very simple. The other teams outside would indeed come in sooner or later, so it was better for them to have more targets than just his group. Not to mention that they only found about this possibility to open the protection formation thanks to Hiro's group. This could also be said to be a way of repaying them for this information.

”Very well, see you later.”

As mentioned before, the Elemental Path is really a one-way path. Still, the distance between its side borders is enormous. So there was more than enough space for both groups to move around. While Hiro's group took the right side, Krune's group did the same to the left.

It didn't take long before Rarol's instincts acted again.

”Haha! Come with me!”

Krune and everyone else immediately followed him. Not long after, Krune's Divine Sense finally found what it was.

”Holy shit! There are over a hundred Elemental Flowers ahead, and at least half of them are the Special Types!”

Filio then asked.

”If there are so many Elemental Flowers, what about the demon beasts? Such a number of flowers will probably have an army defending.”

Everyone immediately stopped since they also thought the same. But surprisingly, Krune denied that conjecture.

”Nothing... There is nothing at all! It's only the flowers. I can't feel the presence of a single demon beast what so ever.”
