Chapter 487 - Safe For Now

Calina's group encountered a few enemies along their way outside the valley's inner region. Fortunately, they were strong enough to get rid of the obstacles on their own. Eventually, they found a hidden corner where Calina and Malaka could look at Wano's condition.

Calina was better at healing skills, so she took care of Wano. At the same time, Malaka and Kuana's group looked around to make sure they were alone. Kentucky was quite large, so Calina had him conceal himself instead of walking around.

All of a sudden, Wano let out a grunt while Calina healed his injuries. It was then that he opened his eyes, allowing him to realize that he hadn't died yet. After looking at his surroundings, he could tell that they had indeed escaped after that battle.

"I know I told you before that you should care more about yourselves, but I'm very glad you ignored those words. Thank you for carrying me away."

Calina shook her head as she replied.

"Without you there, it would have been too difficult for us to escape from the Core and Soul Fusion Realm guy. Some of us might have even died."

Wano shook his head as he rebutted.

"The others might have indeed died. However, you and that friend of yours are different. It's obvious that your abilities far surpass your cultivation levels. If I'm not wrong, you two and that bird would have escaped regardless of the losses."

Calina smiled before saying.

"Look who's talking. You're in the Middle Stage of the Core and Soul Fusion Realm, right? Even though that was the case, you displayed a level of power far above your cultivation level in that last attack of yours. I just don't understand how you became injured like this. The initial red light shouldn't have caused you all this damage."

Wano bitterly smiled as he said.

"Usually, that would indeed be the case. However, I wasn't prepared when I was hit by it."

"What do you mean?"

Wano looked away, trying to avoid eye contact as he muttered.

"Ahem... I was... uh... sleeping..."

Calina's mouth twitched in response. They were in the middle of a gathering with several cultivators from everywhere. Who would dare sleep in a place like that? Then again, that also explained how such a dodgeable red light was able to leave such a severe injury behind. When Wano used his last attack, his body failed to resist the backlash, so he collapsed.

"Weren't you afraid of someone robbing or even killing you while you were asleep?"

Wano laughed.

"I didn't think anyone would even notice I was sleeping. Hahaha! Just between us, I can sleep while standing with my eyes open."

Calina didn't know what to say about this guy.

"You're weird."

Wano laughed once again, not trying to deny that claim. He tried to get up once again, but his body was still aching all over.

"Stay still. It will take a bit more time before I finish closing your injuries with my healing skill. If you have some healing pills, this would be a good time to take them out."

Wano shook his head as he said.

"Believe or not, I'm quite poor."

"Alright. Just stay still since we will need your strength if we get ambushed again."

Wano nodded and then closed his eyes. He also used his own Spiritual Energy to help heal himself after that.

Meanwhile, somewhere close to a city called Arolan, two figures appeared out of nowhere. The moment they appeared, they were several hundreds of meters in the air, so they immediately fell down due to the pull of gravity.

Naturally, those two were Rean and Roan. After using 1000 Rank Three Spirit Stones, they teleported to the maximum distance possible with the rank of their Spirit Stones. If they wanted to teleport further than 1000 kilometers, they would need to use Rank Four Spirit Stones instead.

As mentioned before, Sister Orb could only control the direction of the teleport, but not the place. That's why they appeared far above the ground.

However, Rean and Roan immediately ignored the altitude as they scanned their surroundings. At the Middle Stage of the Core Formation Realm, they could totally resist a fall of that level without any issues.

Fortunately, they didn't see anyone in their field of view as they landed on the ground.

"Alright, we're here. Kentucky is in the southwest direction."

Roan nodded.

"He seems to have stopped moving. However, we can tell that he's still a bit too close to that valley."

Rean agreed with Roan.

"Anyway, we chose this direction because it would be close to Arolan City. We better go there to check how things are going before heading in Kentucky's direction. The city will give us a good idea of how the situation is inside this formation."

Just as they were about to head out, Sister Orb's voice echoed in their mind.

[Hey, you two. Look up.]

Rean and Roan then looked in the direction Sister Orb pointed out. Sure enough, they also saw how the Natural Formation changed all of a sudden.

'Sister Orb, what's happening?'

[The guys we thought to be controlling the Natural Formation have just changed it. I can't tell what they did to it, but I'm sure it's not the same formation anymore. It can hardly be called a Natural Formation now. It would be better to say that they used the Natural Formation as a model for this new formation. It's just that the energy core is still the same.]

Rean understood what Sister Orb meant.

'Basically, you're telling me that the short circuit method wouldn't work anymore.'

[Correct. Well, if you two want to leave, it won't be a problem since that barrier can't stop the Circuitry Teleport Formation. However, you shouldn't expect any reinforcements anytime soon other than the ones who entered first.]

The twins nodded.

'That's fine. We're basically taking Calina, Malaka, and Kentucky out with us, and that's enough.'

Having said that, the two of them immediately headed in Arolan City's direction. Considering the time acceleration, they knew that at least ten days have gone by in this place already. If there were really enemies, Arolan had probably been taken control of by now. They could use this chance to gather some information.
