They moved forward quite fast, with Krune's gigantic Divine Sense, it was quite easy to avoid meaningless battles, it wasn't perfect though, two demon beasts had slipped in during the few minutes that Krune wasn't using it, but with his group strength, unless a 7th stage appears, they will pretty much be able to deal with it. Another reason to avoid battles was so that they wouldn't alarm the stronger beasts, this deep into the danger zone will not have Core Formation Realm beasts, but there is a chance of a 8th or even a 9th stage Foundation Establishment beast appearing if they make too much noise.

By the time they were getting close to their target, the strength of the beasts entering Krune's Divine Sense got higher too, he even found two 7th stage ones, but just as he expected, unless it's a demon beast specialized in the soul, they couldn't notice his Divine Sense, they obviously ignored such beasts.

Yusa looked on the map and then commented.

"We are more or less 500 kilometers away from the blazing alligators lair, it should only take one hour before we arrive."

Ao replied through the communicator.

"That's good, thanks to Krune's pointers, my wind element manipulation got much better during this trip, I'm very confident that I can hold my own against a 5th stage ordinary beast if all I need to do it buy time, I should even be able to defeat a 4th beast if I put some effort too."

Yusa agreed, Krune's views about element manipulation had opened her eyes too.

"Out target is the blazing alligators, as an water element user and Krune's previous help I think I should be able to defeat a 5th stage one, of course, that's because I counter them."

Krune looked a little embarrassed, he wasn't used to people praising him.

"You can stop already, this is making me uncomfortable, all I did is point out where you were doing wrong, the rest was all up to you two to figure out, I had nothing to do with that, each person view of the elements isn't exactly the same after all."

Yusa and Ao laughed at that, he then noticed something.

"You were doing it on purpose too!"

They confessed, Krune is very easy to tease, and it feels very good too.

Krune sighed helplessly, but he quite liked this atmosphere of friendship, until a few months ago it wasn't something common for him.

Suddenly, Krunes face changed.

"Not good, Ao, come back now!"

Ao Sulian noticed that something was wrong, he didn't delay even for a split of a second and rushed back at full speed.

Just a second later after leaving his standing place, the ground caved in, inside one could see two red eyes coming out, Krunes Divine Sense can reach over six kilometers above the ground, but it couldn't do the same under it, it was only when that demon beast was a hundred meters away from Ao that Krune finally saw it, fortunately, Divine Sense communication is faster than any gadget, one can send their thoughts into their companions minds straight away.

The three of them looked at the demon beast in front of them, it was an Earth Dragon, although it has a dragon on its name, it isn't a real dragon, he is just like the Lizard Dragons, the difference is that the concentration of Dragon Blood in his body is much higher than the Lizard Dragons, making him much stronger than ordinary 7th stage beasts, of course, because of that, it wouldn't be able to take the human form before it achieves the late Core Formation Realm, Divine beasts bloodline have their own disadvantages too.

"You are quite fast to be able to dodge that, I was pretty sure no one had noticed me coming, but that's that, to think that two 3rd stage and one 2nd stage Foundation Establishment cultivators would come this far into the Kaliu Danger Zone, it would have been faster if you had simply suicided, don't you think?"

Yusa then smiled.

"Since we are going to die anyway, why don't you let us go? It won't make difference to you anyway, right?"

The Earth Dragon shook his head.

"Even a mosquito's meat is still meat, why should I let it go?"

The Earth Dragon didn't even wait for them to answer and attacked straight away, he targeted Krune because he had the smallest cultivation.

The three of them spread their Divine Sense out to be able to communicate, they immediately dodged, but just because this Earth Dragon is a defense type demon beast, it didn't mean that it was slow, one has to pay attention to the difference in their cultivation levels too.

To the Earth Dragons surprise, Krune was able to avoid his attack, he was faster than Ao Sulian earlier, but this earth dragon had a vast experience in battle, it immediately used his earth element attacks to bind Krune in place, just as it hit the target, Krune's figure turned into water, it wasn't Krune who did that, but Yusa instead!

Water Frame!

During the days they were moving into the deeper parts of the danger zone, the group discussed about their own abilities as to better coordinate during times of peril.

The Earth Dragon Divine Sense caught Krune's silhouette appearing close to Yusa, that type of water skill was very hard to see through, even for it.

Ao wasn't doing nothing either, he was using his own wind piercing and wind blade attacks to target the Earth Dragons eyes. Ao is in fact a sword user, but he knows he doesn't have the attack power to breach the defense of the Earth Dragon, so can only use such methods to distract the Earth Dragon while Krune prepared an attack strong enough to kill or at least force it into retreating.

Sure enough, the Earth Dragon got annoyed with Ao's barrage of attacks, although it could use it's divine sense to see the battlefield, it felt really uncomfortable to not being able to keep it's eyes open, but it didn't fall for Ao's provocation because it was angry, it just thought that Krune and Yusa had no way of doing anything to it, Krune was faster than Ao, but the Earth Draon thought that because of it, Krune's attack power wasn't anything worth looking at, as for Yusa, she is obviously an water element user, her attacks have very limited effect on him.

Krune's eyes lit up, he immediately focused his power to create 62 blazing wind blades, he can't use his stone or water prison on that Earth Dragon, the first doesn't have the power to hold a demon beast with a cultivation much higher than his own, and the second didn't have enough power to breach the dragon's defense.

With Ao's Wind Movement and Yusa's Water Frame skills, they were able to hold the dragon for a few seconds, enough to bring it's attention away from Krune, but there is one thing puzzling Ao and Yusa, demon beasts are usually stronger in their real forms, but Krune is still using his human form even in a dangerous moment like this. Could it be that he doesn't trust the two of them enough to show his real form? But then they discarded such idea, if it was really the case, they could have simply signed a blood contract stating that they shouldn't reveal Krune's real form to anyone, the problem would be resolved as easy as that.

Krune was in a dilemma, it's not that he doesn't trust the both of them either, it's just that after he heard that even Divine Soul Demon Beast Cultivators keep an eye open for the situation in the danger zones, he is afraid of catching the attention of one of them if he shows that he is a wisp at the foundation establishment, for now he could only try to do what he can in his human form.

The chance finally appeared.

"Skill merge! Blazing Wind Blades!"

All 62 Blazing Wind Blades were aimed at the same point, the Earth Dragon who wasn't paying any attention to Krune a second ago felt danger approaching, when it used it's Divine Sense to check, it could see a sea of fiery red blades coming at it. Fast! Really Fast! It was already to late to dodge, the Earth Dragon Focused all of it's spiritual energy on his scale, using earth element to strengthen them!

Blod spurted out and was burnt away as soon as it left its body, the Earth Dragon roared in pain, Krune had left a gruesome injury close to his neck, if the Earth Dragon hadn't noticed the Blazing Wind Baldes in time, it wouldn't have reinforced it's scales with earth element and death would be the only outcome.

Krune started to sweat a little, to use so many Blazing Wind Blades at the same time is quite hard, even for himself, not to mention that because he is in his human body, he has to circulate spiritual energy through his body before he can use any skill, that's the main reason for him to be weaker in human form.

The Earth Dragon got up, it looked at Krune in hatred, it almost died just now and then, it has decided to get rid of Krune before dealing with his companions first. The Earth Dragon immediately pounced at Krune while using its Earth Element to stop him from dodge, but Krune still had his friends with him, now that the Earth Dragon is focusing Krune, they had the space to act as they liked, Ao kept doing his best to disturb the Earth Draon while Yusa kept using her Water Frame to save Krune every time he didn't have the capability to dodge.

The Earth Dragon noticed a problem, the injury in its body was too deep, its blood kept flowing out, if it continued like this, it would have to flee, but how many battles had it gone through before? It used Krune to get close to his companions without them noticing, just when it was about to pounce at Krune another time, a water frame appeared in front of Krune again, but the Earth Dragon was waiting for it, it didn't know if Yusa could use two water frames at the same time to deceive it's sense, but it felt it was worth a try, at worst it would just flee, these cultivators won't be able to follow it underground.

The moment the water frame appeared, the Earth Dragon changed direction and pounced at Yusa instead, Krune's group wasn't expecting for that at all, sure enough, Yusa couldn't use two water frames at the same time, she had just used one in front of Krune, she can't use it again straight away, Krune was too far away, he wouldn't get there in time, Yusa also doesn't have the necessary speed to dodge, just as the Earth Dragon was about to kill Yusa, Ao appeared between them. He had a formation runestone in his hand, it was a protection formation, as long as it is charged with enough spiritual energy, it can be activated at any time, Ao had kept charging it ever since the Earth Dragon appeared, it is another one time use runestone andnow was the time to use it!

A barrier appeared in front of Yusa and Ao, the Earth Dragon attack that should have killed Yusa hit the barrier, but how could a barrier created with the spiritual energy of a 3rd stage Foundation Establishment cultivator resist the attack? It only lasted a split of a second before breaking apart, Yusa and Ao were sent flying! Fortunately, the barrier had enough power to reduce the damage, so they didn't die even though they received serious injuries. The Earth Dragon didn't waste time, those two wouldn't be able to dodge the next attack with those injuries, it also knows that Krune couldn't ready that many fiery blades so fast either, so he wouldn't be able to save them, the dragon immediately pounced at Yusa and Ao.

It was at this moment that it felt extreme danger coming from behind, but that didn't make sense, that 2nd stage Foundation Establishment guy shouldn't be able to use that many fiery blades to attack again so soon, when the Earth Dragon used its Divine Sense to check, the human form beast cultivator was no where to be seen, but right above his own dragon head there was something that shouldn't have been there, it had an spiritual energy body, but the strange part is that that spiritual energy body was completely red! Crimson red! The dragon couldn't help but think.

'Is that a wisp?'

It was the Earth Dragon's last thought.

Krune was enraged! His body crimson because of his madness, when he saw that his friends were about to die, he completely threw caution to the wind! He reverted into his true form and used wind movement, now that his human body wasn't in the way his control over the spiritual energy soared, the weight of his body wasn't a hindrance anymore, he immediately appeared above the Earth Dragon, and all around Krune one could see over a hundred Blazing Wind Blades had taken form, not only there was more blades, they were even more powerful than any other he had ever used! Krune used all the spiritual energy available to him till the last bit.

The blades showered down, the Earth Dragon didn't even have the time to focus on its defense, it's body cut into hundreds of pieces, even its demon core was split in half, releasing all the spiritual energy inside like an explosion, the Earth Dragon was no more!

Ao and Yusa looked at that amazed! They saw the entire process, they saw the moment Krune reverted to his wisp form till the moment he killed the Earth Dragon, they thought they would die but Krune reverted the situation in the last second, but they simply couldn't believe that Krune was a wisp, where have they ever seen a Foundation Establishment wisp before?

Krune's crimson spiritual energy body reverted back to the wisps natural white blue one, his energy body was very dim at moment, even his core could totally be seen, as for Krune himself, he had never used so much spiritual energy at once before, in the end he lost his consciousness, he floated there without moving, just like that.

Yusa was the first to come back to herself, she struggled to get up while looking at Krune, she then told Ao.

"Hurry, we need to leave, there will be demon beasts flocking this area very soon, we need to leave and hide, we are in no condition to battle anymore."

Ao nodded, he got up and rushed at Krune, he grabbed Krune's core and left with Yusa, he also helped her on their way out, he was a little better than Yusa after the attack thanks to his faster reactions, as expected of a wind element user.

Not long after, they could hear roars coming from where the Earth Dragon died, the body of an Earth Dragon is extremely precious, specially it's blood which has some Dragon Blood in it, it will certainly create chaos among the beast around.

Around 1700 kilometers away, an old man was sit inside of a sealed cave, he wasn't human, but a best in human form, an early stage Divine Soul Demon Thunder Lion! He was doing his recognition in the area as he always do with his Divine Sense when he noticed the battle between Krune's group and the Earth Dragon, he didn't pay attention at first, such scenes happen way too often after all, he was sure that the Earth Dragon was going to win when suddenly, Krune became a wisp, at that moment he was really amazed! It was a Foundation Establishment wisp, and a very strong one at that! If he were to put his hands on Krune, he might be able to use his spiritual energy to breakthrough to the middle Divine Soul Realm!

The Thunder Lion was ecstatic! It was just about to move when suddenly, he felt a pressure coming from above at him, it was extremely strong, whoever was doing it to him could totally smash him to a pulp with just a finger, he used all his strength just to say a few words.

"Senior, did I do something wrong?"

He was afraid! He never felt so terrified before. After a few seconds, the pressure disappeared, only a powerful presence remained, the Thunder Lion then heard a voice that it couldn't tell from where it was coming.

"About that wisp, you didn't see anything, you didn't hear anything either."

"Am, I, Clear?"

The Thunder Lion nodded its head so strongly that it felt his neck was going to break, the voice then just said one more word.

"Good."

And then that presence that could destroy a planet was finally gone, just like that.

The Thunder Lion was sweating all over, it decided that it won't touch another wisp for the rest of it's life!

---

Countless galaxies away, the old man who had noticed Krune's success during his first Spiritual Energy Meridians creation closed his eyes, one could just hear him murmuring.

"Little friend, you better get strong fast, I won't be able to protect you for long."

The cave then turned silent once more.
