495 Wamie and Feifei Arrive in the 10th Floor (1/2)
Krune decided to wait until he finds Feifei again. Laex had the same idea, but because of Liriu instead. With Laex and Krune, there wouldn't be many participants on this floor that could put them in danger.
Time passed, and another six months went by. Feifei, who was already on the 8th floor before, was now on the 9th. Her cultivation also continued to grow steadily, achieving now the 6th Stage of the Void Breaking Realm. It has already been 3 months since she stepped in this floor, so she had got used to the Godly Energy. That being said, she moved to the next Light Pilar.
However, Feifei wasn't the only one. Wamie Zarks had also arrived on the 9th floor. Other than that, Wamie's cultivation was the same as Feifei, being in the 6th Stage of the Void Breaking Realm. It's just that she only had a single Heavenly Fragment, different from Feifei, who had three. If not for the fact that her cultivation was higher than Feifei to start with, Feifei would have passed her. In combat power alone, Feifei would definitely have the advantage. She has been using the Elemental Meridians for much longer, after all.
Suddenly, Krune felt a presence and looked in a specific direction. The one he noticed wasn't Feifei, but Wamie instead. In the end, Wamie arrived on the 10th before Feifei. As for her Godly Energy Control test, she was able to fill up 77% of the Orb, making it into the top 20.
Krune didn't leave his place, though. Wamie would be coming to him regardless. After all, Gilia died on this Holy Land. Sure enough, Wamie arrived at Krune's location one week later. As soon as she saw him, she immediately inquired.
”You know about Gilia's death, right?”
Krune nodded.
”I felt her Soul Slive disappearing. From what I found out, she got herself involved in a battle for Godly Energy Stones. But this battle got bigger and bigger, more and more cultivators and demon beasts joined in it. She did acquire a Godly Stone, but it also made her the target. In the end, she gave up the Godly Stone and fled. Unfortunately, she was already poisoned, which brought her demise.”
Wamie was taken aback. That was really a very specific explanation. A thought passed through her mind, and she narrowed her eyes before asking.
”You were there observing and didn't do anything?”
Krune shook his head.
”Fie, Little Arty, it is up to you.”
Fie came out from the hiding place where Krune's group was staying, and her eyes lit up.
”Sister Wamie!”
Fie rushed forward and hugged Wamie tightly. Wamie was taken aback for a second but gave up in the end. Fie had grown up a lot, but she still liked her. Although she wasn't exactly in the mood, she still forced a smile while hugging her back.
”It's good to see you, but why do you look so tired?”
Fie was just about to complain about Little Arty again when the same began to float.
”Ah!”
Wamie jumped back in an instant. Even at her level, she simply couldn't feel his presence at all.
Little Arty didn't mind and then began to explain about Gilia's situation.
”Couldn't you do anything?”
”Even if I could, I wouldn't. I'm an Artifact Spirit, so my Master's orders were absolute. Don't misunderstand things. Your friend was not the only person to die in this Holy Land. Everyone who enters this place is well aware of the risks involved. Or could it be that you didn't?”
Wamie wanted to refute that, but she couldn't. She indeed knew what would be awaiting them here.
”Did you see who did that with Gilia?”
Little Arty sighed.
”I wasn't paying too much attention at that time. After all, I had to observe the entire Holy Land. If not because Fie asked me to keep an eye on her too, I wouldn't even have bothered. There were at least a hundred Demon beasts and Cultivators fighting for those Godly Energy Stones, which is very common on the lower floors when they appear. So I can't really tell which one was responsible.”
Wamie expression went dim. However, she at least knew now how Gilia died. She can't get angry at Little Arty since she would be in the dark without him.
Little Arty then added.
”Life and Death are part of the cultivation path. If you don't get used to it, your path will become even harder in the future.”
Wamie took a deep breath and nodded in the end. He knew all of that, but she still had the hope to seek revenge for Gilia. However, it would be impossible if there were so many cultivators and demon beasts involved. Even Little Arty didn't know all of them, so how could she?
Wamie then looked at Krune before saying.
”I will keep moving forward alone. I hope you don't mind it since I need to train as much as possible.”
Krune nodded and didn't mind.
”That is the correct decision. Staying together will not be as challenging. With your cultivation and Laws, I have no doubt that you can at least keep yourself safe. Of course, that is not considering that you find some freak with a Heavenly Divine Soul. But in that case, even I might get helpless.”
Wamie looked at Krune, and only now she noticed. Krune was quite behind her in cultivation when they entered the Holy Land. But now, he was the same as her, a 6th Stage Void breaking Realm! That was to be expected, though. With all his advantages, it would be weird if he was still behind. In the last six months, Krune broke through into the next stage and was making his way to the 7th.
