285 Try a lot Harder! (1/2)

Krune was taken aback.

”What you mean?”

Karine just shook her head and said.

”There is no need for you to know about that now. Also, your cultivation is way too low at the moment, so come back once you reach the Soul Forging Realm. Go outside and gather a few Elemental Flowers, you can also take those Extreme Fire Crystals if you want. They should provide you quite some help in the future.”

Krune immediately rejected that idea, he had way too many questions.

”No can do. First of all, what is this place? What does Wally expect to achieve? Does it have something to do with the fate of the Wisp Race? I knew about the War to conquer the Dalin Universe all that time ago, so was your death and the other disciples faked? If yes, why? Also, was it part of the plan?”

Karine laughed a little and answered.

”Aren't you a curious wisp? Well, I guess this is a trait that all wisps have anyway. I can answer your first question, though. This is where Wally and we created the Myriad Energies Technique. This is also why when you killed those demon beasts outside, their energy helped improve your Elemental Meridians a little.”

”As for what Wally is expecting to achieve. Isn't that obvious? He just wants to save the wisps' lives. You heard about the battle between him and the other ascenders, right? So you definitely know why the wisps are holding by a tread.”

Krune shook his head.

”That's not what I meant. I want to know what Wally plans on doing specifically.”

Karine just shrugged her shoulders.

”That you will have to ask him directly. As for our deaths, I told you already. You have no need to know about what happened there. If it is part of some plan or not, you will need to ask Wally for that as well.”

Krune understood that it wasn't going anywhere.

”Alright! Then I'm going to ask Wally about it. So, where can I find him?”

Karine sighed

”Who knows? All I can tell you is that he definitely knows where you are, but I have no idea which Universe he is watching you from.”

Krune knew that she was right, that presence is his Elemental Meridians was more than enough proof that Wally knew about him. But he came to understand a piece of information. Wally wasn't expecting him to learn the second form of the Myriad Energies Technique by himself. But since he didn't intervene, it means that it probably fell into his plans as well.

”You said to come back here once I reach the Soul Forging Realm. But in this Elemental Path Dimensional Realm, only Divine Soul Realm or below can enter. Soul Forging and above are impeded from doing so.”

Karine nodded and extended her hands. In front of her, Spiritual Energy started to converge, and soon, a token was formed with it.

”Why Soul Forging Realm?”

Karine showed a playful smile and answered.

”That will be a surprise.”

Krune couldn't help but feel that this girl resembled Feifei a little in her attitude.

”There is one thing that has been bothering me. The Elemental Path has been ongoing for a very long time. But as soon as I entered it, that protection formation was found for the first time. Could it be that we only found this place because a real Myriad Energies Technique user appeared?”

Karine nodded.

”Smart! You are correct. This Dimensional Realm is not as endless as the outsiders think. In fact, it is quite small. Even if you appear at the start, you shouldn't need more than 1 month to reach the end of it. It's just that because only Divine Soul Realm and below cultivators can enter, they don't have the level necessary to perceive what is happening around them. Every time we open this realm, we change its shape. So it always looks like they are entering a new region that had never been explored before.”

Krune agreed with her. He had this idea in his mind ever since he found that protection formation.

Krune retracted his Lightning Energy, and it went back to cover only himself. He looked at the others behind him, and just as he was about to talk, Karine acted.

Except for Feifei and Krune, the rest was lifted on the air for some kind of invisible energy and brought right in front of her. It doesn't matter how much Spiritual or Elemental Source Energy they used, it wasn't possible to move a single muscle.

Krune immediately asked.

”What are you doing?!”

Karine looked at him and said.

”Different from that girl over there, these ones don't have much of a connection with you, right? In that case, I can't let them go now that they know about the other forms of the Myriad Energies Technique.”

Krune didn't like it and decided to intervene. But he soon noticed that he also couldn't move, and the same could be said for Feifei.

”Stop! You can't simply kill them just because they heard something.”

Karine looked at Krune with a puzzled face.

”Do I look like an assassin to you? I'm just wiping their memories of everything that happened in this Yang Hall, that's all.”

Only then did Krune notice one thing. Rarol's instinct always warned when some danger would appear. But he didn't act at all until now. That means that there had never been a danger to him in this place to him to start with.

Sure enough, a few seconds later, Karine put then back on the ground, and they started to make their way outside. When Krune looked at their eyes, he could see that they had lost all focus. They passed by him and started to go back upstairs.

”Don't worry, they will come back to normal once they leave this building.”

Feifei pondered a bit and then asked.

”Just as I thought, you really are Karine, one of the Wisp God's disciples, right?”

Krune might have closed Karine and himself inside the Tribulation Lightning Layer. Still, Feifei had full access to it with her Divine Sense, so she heard everything they discussed.

Still, he got surprised by that question. That's because it seemed like Feifei already knew Karine even before she introduced herself to Krune.

”You knew her?”
