William nodded and chose not to upgrade Uri for now. His strength was already near the top of the Realm, but he didn't know whether the Cultivators were still pursuing him or if they had given up.
His long-distance teleport covered a lot of ground, but Cultivators in the Tribulation Transcendence Realm could cross the entire Continent in a matter of hours. This is why he moved to a different cave before dropping off Uri and Atticus.
William checked the time. It was ten in the morning.
He looked at his two Companion Beasts and gave an order, "Wait until six, then you can leave the cave."
Uri and Atticus nodded. They didn't have to ask why William had given the order. Uri breathed some fire on the ground to melt the stone beneath, then curled up in the hole he had made to take a short rest.
