Chapter 338: Line

Krune's group wasn't the only one to notice it. Everyone felt like things were getting worse.

Krune then sent a Divine Sense Message to everyone.

"Guys, if we keep waiting like this, the situation will only deteriorate. My group and I are going to charge ahead to try to pass this Realm as fast as possible. The rest of you can do whatever you want. You can keep moving slowly, or you can speed up as well. Whether you follow us or not, it is up to you all."

Krune didn't wait for a confirmation from the others, and his group immediately departed. Of course, Krune only gave voice to everyone's thoughts. As soon as he started moving, the other groups did the same. Because no one knew where to go, they decided to tag along together as well.

Sure enough, the number of fake Demon Beasts and Cultivators started to increase, and so did their power.

Before, they were coming one by one. Now, the number had already increased to three at the same time. Their apparent cultivation also jumped from the 3rd Stage of the Divine Soul Realm to the 5th. And all suggest that it will keep increasing.

The main issue at the moment is because no one knew where to go, so they just kept moving to the opposite side from where they entered. It turns out that this Bubble Realm was bigger than the previous two ones by quite a few times. Considering the time they had been moving and their speed, all the groups would have crossed that village in the mountains Bubble Realm several times already.

Some of the participants were already starting to feel preoccupied.

"This doesn't seem right, how come we haven't reached the other side of this Realm yet? How many times bigger is this thing?"

"If you have time to complain, then make sure to keep moving. No one knows where to go in the middle of this forest, so we can't delay. We have to cover as much terrain as possible so that we can at least make an outline of this place."

"Still, there are already five to six enemies coming from time to time now, and the intervals are getting smaller. We have the numbers and cultivation advantage at the moment, but what if we take too long?"

"How can I know? If things go south, I will just charge out on my own. Whatever you guys decide, it is up to you."

Time passed, and over five hours went by. At this moment, the number of attacking Demon Beasts and Cultivators had already surpassed more than 15 at once. Their cultivation also reached the 8th Stage of the Divine Soul Realm or higher. Some of the Divine Soul Realm participants were already having trouble dealing with it and needed the Soul Forging Realm ones to step in.

There was good news, though. Around two hours ago, their group had finally reached the end of the Bubble Realm once more. At least now, they have an idea of just how big this thing is. Unfortunately, there was nothing there, so they turned around and restarted their search.

Krune looked at Rarol and asked.

"So, what is your instinct saying, Rarol?"

Rarol smiled bitterly and said.

"I can feel danger everywhere. It doesn't matter how much we advance, this feeling is still coming from all sides. Joiu is probably right, this must be some kind of Formation, and those people and beast are just spawning randomly."

Feifei is the one with the broadest knowledge about formations at the moment, so after she heard what Rarol said, she immediately shook her head.

"It is not random. The Formation definitely knows where we are at all times. That is also the reason why the fake Demon beasts and Cultivators never spawn inside our sight vision."

Krune then asked her.

"Do you have a way to find the core of the formation?"

Feifei shook her head.

"I'm still a peak Silver Stars Formations Master. This Formation here is, at the very least, a Diamond Stars one."

Krune then looked at Joiu.

"You are wasting your time, no one in my group is a Formations Master to start with."

Krune sighed and then sent a Divine Sense message to all the other cultivators and demon beasts.

"Does anyone of you have an idea of how to find the Core of the Formation?"

They all looked at each other, but only silence remained. It's not like there were no Formations Masters in this group. It's just that no one could think about a way to find the core... Or so was what everyone thought at first.

"I- I think I have an idea."

Immediately, everyone's attention was dragged to a Demon Beast on the back of the group. But when they looked at his cultivation, they were taken aback. That demon beast in human form was nothing more than 6th Stage Core Formation Realm one.

One must remember that before the Dimensional Realm opened, there were Core Formation Realm cultivators and demon beasts in the middle of those waiting for it. But everyone thought that anyone at this level was basically courting death to enter. So their number was quite small to start with. Those at the Core Formation who decided to enter were normally the type with low talent or with some other extreme reason.

Sure enough, when Krune checked that Demon Beast's foundation, he could see with his Divine Sense that Spiritual Energy kept flowing out. It was just that it went in faster instead to make up for the loss.

Dilo also noticed that and sighed.

'A damaged core, just like my dantian in the past.'

That Demon Beast was expecting to find some healing medicine to fix his Demon Core. At the very least, enough treasures and resources so that he could sell them and buy a good enough medicine later.

Noticing everyone's eyes on him, that Demon Beast felt quite nervous. After all, the biggest majority in this place could smash him any time they wanted.

"My sect has a formation that looks pretty much like this one. Well, at least I think they still have. I was expelled, so I don't know if things changed. Anyway, during the time I stayed there, the other members thought about a method to find the core of the Formation as fast as possible. The group line strategy."

He then continued.

"Simply put, the cultivators and demon beasts would form a line and cover the biggest distance possible. The group then would move together and check the respawn of the enemies. Usually, this kind of Formation will give priority to the ones who are closer to the core. The only problem is that our Divine Sense is severely restricted at the moment, so the distance we can open from each other isn't that big."

"Fortunately, we have a lot of Demon Beasts and Cultivators. Even with the restricted Divine Sense, we should be able to form a big enough line. As I can see, we have a total of 246 Demon Beasts and Cultivators at the moment. If we use only those with Divine Senses that can surpass more than 2km, we should be able to make a line of 100 or maybe even 200km large. As for the ones who can't spread their Divine Senses this long, they will give support to those who can, so that we can deal with the enemies."

Krune and everyone else didn't have any better idea, so they immediately did as that demon beast suggested. To make sure they would be safe, the entire extension of the line group had Soul Forging Realm cultivators and demon beasts evenly spread. That is because, with the level of the enemies at the moment, the Divine Soul Realm ones would have a hard time defending against.

Krune then looked at that demon beast with a damaged core and said through a Divine Sense.

"If it works, I will give you a pill that can heal your core later."

That demon beast eyes immediately lit up, and it prayed that this strategy works.

The ones with strong Divine Sense then connected with the other two on both side, and soon, the line was completed. Krune, Feifei, and Dilo also helped with this part, and they had the rest of the members to stay close with them.

After that, they restarted their search. A few minutes later, the right side of the line received an attack of the fake cultivators and demon beasts. Everyone there quickly dealt with it and continued to move. Soon, the same side of the line group received another attack. With those two attacks, the entire group understood to which side the core of the Formation was.

The line group then changed direction and moved once more. The idea was to have the demon beasts attacking the center of the line group. Once that happens, they will know that they are moving in the direction.

Of course, since this Bubble Realm was enormous, it took them quite some time to get used to the attacks. Not to mention that the enemies' strength kept rising. Fortunately, the plan worked out, and they finally started to get attacks at the center of the line group constantly. That meant that the center of the group was the closest one to the Formation Core.

The two extremes of the Line group then sent some of their supporters to help defend the attacks directed at the middle. After all, they can't afford to lose anyone now that things are growing more dangerous.

After almost two hours of travel, Krune's group and everyone else could finally see something different in the distance.

"Seems like we finally reached our objective."
