332 First Bubble Realm (1/2)
Krune and the others then moved in the direction that they agreed earlier. Sure enough, due to the sheer amount of cultivators and demon beasts, quite a few groups or solo ones followed them as well.
Krune didn't mind, though. It was something that they couldn't avoid unless they attacked everyone. That obviously wouldn't work since there was a lot more than the number that attacked them before.
When they passed through the division between realms, they finally were able to see how the next realm resembled. It looked like a gigantic valley in the middle of the mountains. However, when Krune looked beyond the mountains on both sides, all he could see was darkness. It was pretty evident that the 'bubble' realm isn't that big to start with.
Krune could also see quite a few cultivators and demon beasts ahead who had entered this realm before them. At the bottom of the valley, his group could see a small village as well. Through his Divine Sense, Krune noticed that there were a few cultivators and demon beasts in those houses looking for treasures or resources.
Noticing that everything looked fine, Krune once again reduced the connection between him and his Divine Soul. Heavin immediately woke up after that and took control of the parrot once more. Krune then gave a quick explanation to him and then moved forward.
Still, even though this bubble realm didn't look too big, it was several times the size that Krune's Divine Sense could cover. Krune looked at Rarol and waited for his opinion.
Rarol then shrugged his shoulders and said.
”You know how it works. My instincts don't act when I want them to. So, at the moment, I can say even less than you can. But that also might mean that there isn't much in this first realm.”
Joiu Rak heard that and felt puzzled.
'Are they perhaps relying on this Demon Beast's instinct? Is that a good idea?'
Of course, he was the one who decided to follow, so he had no right to complain about how they did things.
Krune nodded and said.
”I see, anyway, let's keep moving them. If you feel anything, just give us a warning.”
Krune's group then quickly descended into the valley and entered the village as well. Unfortunately, as far as their Divine Sense could tell, there was nothing worth paying attention to.
Everyone then agreed to separate and search the village as well. However, they made sure that everyone kept inside the other's Divine Sense, just in case.
The village didn't look that big from afar. But once Krune's group started to search, it took quite some time for them to look into all the houses. Finally, they arrived at the other side of the village, and they noticed quite a few cultivators and demon beasts gathered in front of a big house.
Krune then asked one of the demon beasts about what was happening.
”Everyone tried to enter this house, but it doesn't matter what you do, it simply doesn't open. The guys are discussing if they should start attacking or not. Mohie Clan Inheritances have lots of traps, so some are afraid that it might trigger some calamity.”
Krune nodded, and his group moved forward to take a look. On the door, Krune could see the symbol of the Mohie Clan, so he thought that it might be related to the Jade Slip. Krune brought it forward, and sure enough, the seal on the door started to shine and then disappeared.
The few cultivators and demon beasts in this place got excited, and they all tried to rush inside. Krune narrowed his eyes and was about to do the same thing when suddenly, he and his group received a Divine Sense Message from Rarol.
”Not good! Fall back, now!”
Krune and Feifei already told Ruik and the others to always trust Rarol's instinct. So they immediately flew away as fast as possible.
As for Joiu and his group, they hesitated a bit. After all, they couldn't see anything wrong. Still, Joiu gritted his teeth and decided to trust Krune, or better, Darten's friend.
Suddenly, the house started to shine, and just a split of a second later...
”Boom!”
An enormous explosion of Spiritual Energy blasted the house and everything hundreds of meters around it. The shock wave also sent the Cultivators and Demon Beasts who were close to the explosion flying!
