496 The Diamond Golem Race (1/2)

Back on Krune's side, Light Spirit noticed a change.

”Something is wrong. Feifei's speed increased a lot, and she is dashing at full speed here.”

Krune narrowed his eyes.

”It is because she is worried about me? No, she knows that I can take care of myself.”

Heavin pondered a bit.

”Feifei would do that if she knew that Fie was here, no? Perhaps she knows that and is coming as fast as possible. She might be able to predict it with her Destiny Major Divine Soul, after all.”

Krune thought that Heavin had a point. However, he was still worried.

”Laex, you are the fastest of us here. Can I bother you to bring us there faster?”

After six months, Laex had finally stepped into the 2nd Stage of the Divine Path Realm. In fact, it happened just a single month after Krune found him, so he had been in the 2nd stage for 5 months. That being said, he was quite close to the 3rd stage as well.

”Alright, leave it to me.”

Laex then returned to his Dragon Form, which was already quite enormous. But then, it shrank quite a lot until he was just big enough to carry Krune and Fie. After entering the Divine Path Realm, a Demon Beasts can control its body size to a certain degree, and that's what Laex did just now.

After Krune and Fie flew to his back, Laex fused with his Purple Flame Dragon Pearl. His overall strength increased, including his speed. With a flash of Purple-Black Light, their group disappeared in the distance.

One streak of light passed, and sometime later, another one followed. The Bear had following Feifei for an hour already, but it could only decrease their distance little by little. Feifei was almost as fast as itself, which increased its belief that Feifei was one of those super-geniuses that always got Godly Energy Stones. It was dead set on catching her now.

Feifei looked behind with her Mental Energy and narrowed her eyes. That demon beast was 7 stages above her cultivation, and also in the next realm. It would be too difficult to defend if she was caught.

”I can only rely on my Illusion of Destiny domain when the time comes.”

Feifei was expecting two things. One was to meet with Krune and join forces to deal with the Bear. The other was to bump into another Divine Path Realm and use the chance to escape. However, the second option would be too risky and without any guarantee that it would work.

Still, she had no other choice. She was already flying at her top speed, but the Bear was slowly catching her up.

Finally, The Bear was close enough to start his attack. But it was at this very moment that the Bear and Feifei were caught of guard.

”Illusion of Destiny Domain!”

Immediately, thousands of illusion of boulders started to appear on Feifei's vision. Still, they were just to fast, so Feifei had to fight one or another when she didn't have space or time enough to move.

The Bear was in an even worse state. First, because it was in its true form, so it was much bigger. Second, because its race doesn't excel at speed. However, the Bear's defense was far higher than others, so it was smashing one boulder after another.

Seeing how Feifei was doing her best to dodge these boulders, the Bear immediately understood that it had nothing to do with that girl. They had been ambushed by someone else. The Bear was also a little proficient in the Earth Laws, so it knew that whoever it was, it was definitely much stronger. Just the complete Major Law of Earth was enough for the Bear to understand that it isn't a match.

Suddenly, the Bear received a Divine Sense message.

”I don't care about the fact that you were trying to catch me. If this continues, we are both dead. I will allow you to see the illusions of my Domain, so focus on the defense.”

The Bear was taken aback. But suddenly, several boulders illusions began to appear. One of them passed through the Bear, which gave it quite a fright.

”Those are the illusions of a small moment in the future, pay attention.”

At some point, Feifei appeared right above the Bear and focused on keeping the Illusion of Destiny going. The Bear gritted its teeth and did as she said. With those illusions showing what was going to happen, its defense got watertight, which finally lifted the pressure it was feeling.

'Such a fantastic Domain. Just how long would I need to fight her if she used it to predict my moves?'

Still, the Bear put those thoughts on the back of its mind and focused on defending the two of them.

Although it took time to explain, the entire event didn't last more than a minute.

In the end, both the Bear and Feifei survived that calamity. However, they didn't dissolve their alliance straight away. The main culprit for that ambush is definitely close to them. Now that his first attack failed, the enemy will most likely appear to finish the job.

”Hoho! To think that you would really survive my ambush with just this much damage. I guess I underestimated your abilities too much.”

Sure enough, the ground below them began to tremble as if there was an earthquake happening. An enormous spiritual pressure then fell on Feifei and the Bear at the same time. Feeling that, both their eyes narrowed. This wasn't someone they could afford to fight.

Slowly, the Earth below began to move. It then caved in, and a giant demon beast emerged. Seeing that, they couldn't help but be shocked.

”The Diamond Golem Race!”

Both Feifei and the Bear's expressions turned much worse after seeing that guy. The Diamond Golems are also considered a Divine Beast race, and a powerful one at that. But that wasn't the main issue. The problem was that this Diamond Golem was already in the 6th Stage of the Divine Path Realm! Both the Bear or Feifei couldn't fight such a thing.
