Chapter 204: They can't be this lucky twice.
Sometime earlier, Krune had commented about starting an attack by themselves.
Uriu looked at him and asked.
"Do you have a plan?"
Krune nodded.
"It's not really a plan, I just think that we should use my skill to hide from their Divine Sense and attack."
Wang Mo couldn't help but ask.
"Can we really succeed once more? As you said, they definitely have their guards up now, so I doubt that something like what happened before would happen. First of all, it seems like they also have someone capable of tracking us. So they should be able to know if we are close by or not even with your Tribulation Lightning Concealment."
Everyone nodded when they heard that. It doesn't seem very feasible to attack the assassins at this point.
Juniu then asked.
"Then what about trying to luring them one more time? We could try to lure the enemy inside the Central Building."
Wang Mo immediately intervened after that.
"To lure them inside, we would need to enter too. We would just die even faster."
In the end, Krune came forward and said.
"Let's just go with the first option, we will conceal ourselves and wait for a chance to attack. If it works, then excellent! If it doesn't, then we fight head-on! Isn't the sole purpose of this training to go into Life and Death situations to temper ourselves? Even though I didn't kill that demon beast, I still injured it enough. It definitely won't be able to battle anytime soon."
Hulibe Acrol was the first one to approve.
"Agreed! I also don't like to keep waiting. This is the best chance we have at the moment since the other two guys are out of the play."
Uriu agreed with that too.
In the end, everyone decided to follow this plan since Krune and Hulibe had a point. If they wait too long, the other two assassins might get back on their feet and help getting rid of them. Of course, they didn't know that Angil wasn't a risk anymore, so they also considered him as a treat.
A few hours later, just like Xanio mentioned, the light barrier started to disappear. Fortunately, it was enough time for Krune to recover his Tribulation Lightning power to the peak. Since that was the case, they immediately set off. Because Krune was the one to activate the teleport formation, he had an idea from which direction they came. Also, he made sure to ask Light Spirit to cover them with the Tribulation Lightning layer once more.
Just as they were about to leave, everyone heard Xanio's voice.
"I will give you some help with that. "
Krune and the others immediately got confused. Didn't this guy say that anything that happened to them didn't have anything to do with him? How come he is willing to help now? Of course, they just needed one second to understand that Feifei was most likely the reason.
"I made an agreement with that Feifei girl. Although most of the power is being used in the central building, I can still use some of it to give you some assistance. It should allow me to control one Middle Stages Divine Soul Realm Demon Beast or two Early Stages ones."
Immediately, everyone's eyes lit up!
But Krune was the only one who thought about another thing.
"What were the terms of this agreement?"
Xanio answered.
"That's not of your concern. What you need to know is that Feifei already accepted it, so you should use this chance well."
Although Krune wasn't happy with that answer, he had to admit that the task at hand was the most important now.
Hulibe looked at everyone and said.
"My two friends here and I can fight at the Divine Soul Realm level for a short amount of time, so we need to find the best way of doing it."
Krune was already expecting something like that since Hulibe said before that he could deal with one of the enemies at least.
"Bring a Middle Stage one to join my group. I will use this chance to eliminate the Death Core owner."
Wang Mo looked at him and asked.
"Are you sure you can do it? I doubt that they will fall inside your Tribulation Lightning attack like last time."
Krune nodded.
"I can, and that's because that wasn't my strongest attack. First of all, that kind of attack takes too much space and time to build. So unless I take the enemy off guard, it wouldn't work just like you said. There is one thing that I had been thinking, and I would like to try."
Wang Mo and the others narrowed their eyes. Krune was intending to try a new attack in this situation, so what if it doesn't work?
Krune didn't mind, though. He was pretty confident that it would be okay since the principle behind wasn't as complicated as his Tribulation Calamity. It was a simply head-on full-power attack.
"Trust me, it will definitely work. But I need that Middle Stage Demon Beast to hold the Death Core owner for a second."
Usually, they would complain about his confidence. But after what they saw in the teleportation building, they had to admit that no one here had an attack power as high as him. If the next attack was even more powerful than that, then it might be worth the risk.
Uriu was the first one to agree.
"Let's do as he says. I will use my Life Core to the max to keep the Death Energy of that guy at bay, so just concentrate on your task."
Krune then communicated with Light Spirit and asked.
"Are you sure you can control it?"
Light Spirit immediately answered.
"Hmph! Even if it was 10 times more powerful, I would still be able to do so. Although I have recovered just a little bit, it is still more than enough to control this amount of power. You just need to be sure that you can do what you said."
Krune then took a deep breath and reassured Light Spirit.
Not long after, a Middle Stage Divine Soul Realm demon beast appeared in their Divine Sense. They were surprised to see that it was a ten-legged Swamp Spider. It wasn't a very rare demon beast. In fact, just like Krune, it could also enter the human form at the Foundation Establishment Realm. Still, because Krune said that he needed the enemy to be held for a second, this was indeed a perfectly chosen beast.
Xanio then told Krune's group where the assassins were located.
Sure enough, as soon as they saw the light barrier disappear, the assassins immediately came inside. Thanks to Yano, who had healed enough to at least follow them, they could also tell Krune and the others' general location. Still, Xanio told them that the enemy seemed to be very cautious while coming.
Before Krune's group entered the Divine Sense range of the assassins, Light Spirit immediately covered everyone with a Tribulation Lightning Layer. Light Spirit also did the same with the Spider, but it didn't stay with the group. Instead, Krune told Xanio to keep it some distance away to launch a surprise attack at the Death Core owner.
Because of the Tribulation Lightning Layer, the enemy wouldn't be able to detect it. Not to mention that the enemy definitely isn't expecting that a Divine Soul Realm Demon Beast is working with Krune. At most, they think that Krune would try to lure them into fighting one.
Of course, such action wouldn't work anymore, and Krune knew it. That's why he wouldn't try this move to start with.
Krune's group moved not at the direction of the assassins, but almost to the opposite side now. Since they had a plan, the best was to make them think that they are trying to escape.
As soon as the Enemy's Divine Sense passed through them, Light Spirit warned Krune. As per the plan, Krune's group speed immediately soared as they dashed away. Of course, they wouldn't be as fast at the Divine Soul Realm assassins. Only Krune, perhaps, would be able to do it if he was alone. Yano, who was tracking them, immediately told Lanis about what happened, and their group increased their speed too.
Because both sides were moving away in the same direction, it took quite some time for the assassins to be able to see them. But once they did, they noticed that Feifei wasn't with them. Still, their only choice was to attack so that they could ask where Feifei was now.
Krune's group then increased their speed even more, but that was to no avail. Gelius, the Death Core Owner, had his eyes fixed on Uriu, and immediately chased. Lanis kept his Divine Sense fully activated to prevent any mishaps. Still, he could only see Krune's group trying to flee.
Finally, Gelius caught up with Krune and Uriu while Peily went after Wang Mo's group.
Hulibe noticed it and shouted.
"Fuck that! Since you want to fight, then let's fight!"
Hulibe then used the same treasure, and immediately, he and his two friends combat power raised to the Divine Soul Level. After that, they immediately rushed to Lanis, who was behind.
Lanis saw what happened and just snorted.
"Do you think I'm as weak as the other guy? Although my companion couldn't tell it at that time, I definitely can. Let me see just how long the will inside your treasure can hold before going out of energy."
Wang Mo's group was the one in the worst condition at the moment. Peily was obvious much stronger than their combined effort, so all they could do was defend.
Thanks to Uriu's Life Core, Krune's group was being able to hold the Death Energy of the Death Core Owner. Still, a Divine Soul Realm cultivator with a Major Core is usually much stronger than a normal one with the same cultivation. Because of that, even his group formation was having a hard time holding Gelius off. Fortunately, his Flying Shields were of tremendous help.
Krune then looked at Peily's direction and thought.
'It should be around time. Last time I failed to kill one of you, but I refuse to believe that you guys can be this lucky twice!'
