Dark Phoenix Prince

Chapter 67: Tense Situation

Alu and the others who had been holding back the coconut trees quickly chased the people who had run first.

Fortunately, their strength was far above average.

So, even though they were quite far behind, they could still catch up to the group at the front in no time.

After Alu and the others joined the group, Krinn shouted once again.

"Those with area attacks go to the front and pave the way. And those with defensive techniques take a back position and make a defense." Krinn ordered.

Behind them, there were still two coconut trees chasing. As for the last coconut tree, it remained where it was after being injured by Rena.

And the two coconut trees that were chasing kept shooting at them with countless coconuts.

After Krinn's command, the people quickly took a suitable position for them.

ALU who also had area attacks with the power of fire also went to the front lines.

At the forefront, the lead is Arlo.

The reason why Krinn ordered them to open a path was because in front of them were so many trees. The trees are also thick enough that their existence slows down their journey.

Whooss...

On the front lines, Arlo's attacks were the ones that stood out the most.

He only waved his hand and the flames immediately ignited within an area of hundreds of meters.

With one strike, Arlo can burn hundreds of trees to ashes.

Of course, there were quite a number of other attacks that helped Arlo's attack.

Alu is one of them.

But even though Alu released the power of his flames, the power of fire that he showed this time was not his Phoenix flames. And they are not black either.

Apart from that, Alu also limits his spiritual source. The spiritual source that Alu released this time was only on par with the princes of other great kingdoms.

With Alu's talent in the law of fire, Alu can naturally easily create another fire.

Of course, the fire that Alu showed this time, although it was good enough, it was still lacking compared to Arlo's flames.

As Alu unleashed his fire attack, Alu could feel Arlo's gaze directed at him.

ALU who felt Arlo's gaze only smiled sarcastically. Silently he said. "Wait for the right time, I'll show you who's tiger and who's monkey."

Now Alu is pretty sure that Arlo will hunt him down if he finds out that his fire is very special.

Boom... Boom... Boom...

While on the front lines the people paved the way, at the back, the people made giant shields capable of protecting everyone.

With the combined strength of more people including Krinn among them, the shield they created this time was able to withstand the attacks of two coconut trees without any cracks in the shield.

Apart from that, several people with special attacks also unleashed multiple attacks on the two coconut trees that were chasing them.

Even though their attacks weren't enough to injure the coconut trees, they still managed to slow down their movements.

With a path beginning to open before them, the people immediately accelerated their pace. Their destination is a dense forest at the end of the beach.

"Get in quickly." Krinn shouted when they arrived in front of the forest.

Even though it wasn't known what was inside the forest, it was still a good place to avoid the two coconut trees that were chasing them. At least in a forest filled with lush trees, the two coconut trees will find it difficult to move.

Whooss... Whooss... Whooss...

The people quickly entered the forest, and after entering the forest, they continued to run into the depths of the forest.

Roar... Roar... Roar...

However, just as they entered the forest, they were immediately attacked by countless wild beasts.

"Kill the beasts." Someone screamed.

Even though there were quite a number of wild beasts they encountered, most of them were still at the True Spiritual stage.

The people who all had the cultivation of the Life and Death stage could easily slaughter all the wild beasts that got in their way. The beasts were unable to slow down their steps.

"Huh."

Not long after, the people started to stop as they arrived at a more quiet place.

Now, there were no more wild beasts they encountered. The two coconut trees that were chasing them had also stopped chasing.

"Quickly recover your energy. We'll be going deeper soon." Krinn shouted.

Since entering the island, Krinn doesn't look relaxed anymore. He continued screaming as he spoke.

"Krinn, the island is vast, do you have a way to find Jather?" Arlo then asked Krinn.

"Dont worry." Krinn answered with a wicked smile.

"Do you think I wasn't ready when I came to this holy path."

After saying that, Krinn then took out what looked like a light bulb.

Inside the bulb, there is a needle pointing in a certain direction.

"This needle's direction is where Jather is." Krinn said.

People were shocked once again when they heard Krinn's words.

None of them thought Krinn had such a valuable treasure.

Alu who saw the light bulb in Krinn's hand narrowed his eyes.

"Such tracking devices are extremely valuable treasures even in the outside world. And those in Krinn's hands can actually function on the holy path." ALU thinks.

"All right everyone, we will rest for two minutes. After that we will continue our journey." Krinn said after he took out the light bulb.

...

After two minutes, they started walking.

This time's trip, they did it quite easily because they didn't encounter any wild beasts anymore.

It was a little strange but no one thought much of it.

After some time traveling, they stopped once more when they saw the road ahead of them starting to dive upwards.

"We'll be climbing the mountain soon. Maybe the danger will increase drastically. All of you have to be careful and take care of each other so that no one dies." Krinn said.

"Besides, if we run into beasts, we have to focus on moving forward. We just need to get the beasts out of our way. If they don't die, just let them go. There's no need to chase."

"Mm..."

The people nodded simultaneously.

"Okay, let's go." Krinn smiled as he saw people nodding.

He then looked towards a certain direction at the top of the mountain.

"Jather, you won't be able to run away." He said with a sinister smile.

...

The forest on the mountain wasn't very dense, yet each tree looked so big that people felt chills when they saw it.

If it was before, they wouldn't feel afraid of mere trees. However, after meeting three spiritual demons on the beach, they had now developed a wary feeling towards the tree they saw.

Compared to the trees at the foot of the mountain, the trees in the mountain area were much bigger. If they could move, how strong would they be.

Their cultivation may still be at the Life and Death stage of the third layer, but even the third layer has a difference in strength.

If their spiritual source was only around ten thousand, people could still fight back. After all, they still possessed a mysterious technique that could increase their spiritual source.

Like the previous coconut trees, they have about twelve thousand spiritual sources. Using mysterious techniques, most of the people were still able to escape.

However, if they encountered spiritual demons who had spiritual source that numbered around twenty thousand, even Krinn or Arlo might not be able to escape with their lives.

....

Because there are fewer trees on the mountain, causing more open areas, Alu and the others can move around more easily.

Although the mountain terrain was rather difficult, for people like them who could jump up to a hundred meters, going through the mountain terrain was much easier.

They were moving quite fast and in just a short time, they had risen to a height of fifty kilometers.

From where they were now, they could see the entire area of the foot of the mountain and the ocean surrounding the mountain.

They could be said to be already in the middle of the mountain.

But even though they had climbed quite high, almost everyone in the group had nervous expressions.

"This is very strange." Many people spoke with suspicious expressions.

What made them nervous was that they had not encountered a single beast since they had climbed the mountain. That, of course, is very strange.

"Maybe there aren't any beasts around here." Someone answered, trying to calm people down. But his words certainly didn't work. On the other hand, people seemed more nervous.

"Somehow I suddenly had a bad feeling." Someone said.

"I feel it too."

"Me too."

After the first, one by one the others also said it.

In no time, the group was already full of commotion. People started to panic.

In a dangerous place, the most frightening is not the danger, but finding nothing.

People often say that if you don't meet danger in a dangerous place, it means you will meet even greater danger.

"All of you, be quiet." Arlo suddenly shouted.

But even though he was screaming, his expression also looked nervous.

He then looked at Krinn who was beside him.

"Krinn, are we still far?" He asked.

Krinn didn't answer right away. He took out his light bulb first.

He stared at the light bulb for a brief moment before speaking. "It's just to show the target direction."

After saying that, he then looked up at the top of the mountain.

He narrowed his eyes before speaking. "But I suddenly smell a conspiracy in here."

"..."

Krinn's words made people feel even more nervous.

Boom
