Is that a Wisp?

There were more Jade Slips in that room, but none of them had more information about the same issue.

Krune and the others finished looking at everything in this place. Fortunately for Heavin, a few of the Jade Slips also had some Soul Techniques. Krune, Pana, and Joiu's groups then moved forward and entered the next Realm.

But there was one thing different in this one. They weren't alone! This Bubble Realm was quite small, probably no more than 20 or so km radius. Because of that, Krune and his group immediately noticed the other side. Also, they could see several bodies on the ground. Judging by the environment, quite a few battles happened already.

It turned out that the group they encountered was none other than Uer's! It was also obvious that they were the ones who killed the other groups who arrived here.

Uer also noticed Krune's group presence and started to laugh out loud.

"Hahahaha! Great! I've been waiting for the time I would meet your group. So how about it, are you willing to take my offer now?"

Krune narrowed his eyes and asked.

"What offer?"

Uer smiled and answered.

"Have a battle to the death against me. Exciting, right? So far, all the groups that I met were a bunch of weaklings. They couldn't do more than kill half of my subordinates, really disappointing. But look, thanks to that, our groups are almost at the same size!"

Krune then shook his head.

"Thanks, but no thanks. I have no intention of having death battles."

Uer laughed once more and then said.

"Unfortunately, you have no choice here."

Uer then activated his Death Domain and immediately gave the order to attack.

Mino Jan, the protector that came with him from Luvile Universe, was also intending to finish everything as fast as possible. He wants to confirm if Krune and Feifei really have Heavenly Fragments or not. If they have, then they hit the jackpot. They would get two Heavenly Fragments at once.

But just as they were about to start, another group appeared inside that small Realm that they were in. Krune looked at the newcomers and recognized them.

"It's Ricarte and his group."

Ricarte saw that situation in front of him and sighed.

"Hey, you two, what is happening here? Why are there so many bodies on the ground?"

Krune then pointed at Uer.

"That guy there seems to be killing everyone who arrives. So now that we are here, he intends to do the same."

Ricarte nodded. He already expected that it was the case considering how Uer acted back in the Dimensional Realm Entrance.

"I see..."

Ricarte then got close to Krune's group and asked Uer.

"Are you still going to insist on this fight?"

While doing that, he released the power of his cultivation. The impressive thing was that everything started to get slow around them. Krune, Feifei, Uer had to use their own laws to stop being affected by that. It only took a second for the three of them to understand.

'Time Major Core! No, he isn't in the Core Formation Realm anymore, so it's a Time Major Divine Soul!'

Uer narrowed his eyes and then snorted right after.

"Forget it. I'm not idiot enough to think that I can deal with you both at the same time. Still, how many Major Divine Souls we have in this Inheritance already?"

Ricarte laughed and then answered.

"As far as I know, no less than nine."

Krune's and Feifei were taken aback. They didn't expect that this place had gathered so many Major Divine Souls.

Uer then went to a corner and sat down. Mino Jan sighed and did the same, he couldn't help but curse his luck. Their group then took some distance, and everything was over before even starting.

Ricarte then looked at Krune, or better, Darten, and asked.

"So, why are you even staying here?"

Krune shook his head.

"I don't know. I didn't have the chance to look around. But if they are not moving forward, this is probably because of that Spatial Gate on the other side."

Krune then pointed at the gate on the other side of this Bubble Realm. There was only one this time around, and they could also notice another seal blocking it. Still, this one looked different from all the other passages between realms so far.

Ricarte and Krune's group then approached the gate and touched the Seal. Soon, the information regarding its opening flowed into their minds.

-This gate shall be opened when all 18 keys have been gathered.

Total number present: 05-

Krune and Ricarte's group immediately understood why Uer's group was here waiting. It turns out that the next Realm wouldn't open even if they wished to. Also, it seemed like Uer or Ricarte got an extra Jade Slip as well. But Krune didn't care about it, as long as he has his one, that is enough.

Ricarte couldn't help but comment.

"Just how long would we need to wait for everyone to arrive. And what will happen if someone decides to not move forward anymore?"

Krune shook his head and said.

"I don't know, but I don't think that Mohie Zarks wouldn't have thought about it. There was a Bubble Realm before where all the late participants were forcefully teleported to that Realm' last trial. I believe that something like that will probably happen again."

Ricarte had to admit that Krune was probably right.

"Indeed. My group also passed for two similar situations where we were teleported or forced to follow a specific path. Anyway, all we can do is to wait, so I guess I will simply cultivate a little."

Krune nodded, and his group also decided to do the same.

Ricarte and Krune's group then stayed somewhat close to each other just in case Uer's group decided to try something. A few hours later, another group arrived. This time, it was Mohie Maran and his subordinates. Maran also took a look at the Seal in the Spatial Gate and found a place to cultivate. He didn't seem surprised by the bodies on the ground nor by the information about the gate.

Just like Ricarte, Uer, and Krune's groups, Mohie Maran's one was obviously smaller than the time when they separated at the Dimensional Realm Entrance.

Time passed, and even more groups arrived. Two days later, the number of Cultivators and Demon Beast already surpassed 500 hundred. Of course, considering the number that first entered the Mohie Zarks Inheritance, this amount wasn't even 1/10 of the total. As for jade Slips, 9 of the 18 total were already present.

There was one thing that made the others feel weird, though. The fact that Krune cooked something now and then. He had a full chef set prepared in his Spatial Ring and a plethora of ingredients. Krune's group even had a set of tables, plates, and everything else. Just who would expect someone to lose their time in a place like this to cook?

At first, the others thought that it was some joke. But when they started to sense the smell, they couldn't help but feel like eating as well.

"Hey, Joiu. Do you and your group want some?"

Joiu felt somewhat awkward hearing that question, but he had to admit that Krune's food was very fragrant. At his cultivation level, he didn't need to eat anymore, so even he can't remember the last time he stopped to eat something.

"Errr... Sure..."

Joiu knew about the possibility of Krune, or better, Darten, having poisoned the food. Still, for some reason, he felt like he wouldn't do that.

Seeing Krune and Joiu's group eating made the others quite jealous. Still, they were all way too proud to ask for some, so they tried to ignore it. They made a small barrier with their Spiritual Energies that blocked the smell.

Another 3 days passed, and the number continued to increase. However, much more slowly. There were now around 800 Cultivators and Demon Beasts present, and 13 Jade Slip Owners.

Krune was once again cooking when suddenly, he felt that something was happening to the Spatial Gate. He wasn't the only one, though. Everyone looked at that at the same time.

The Seal on the Gate started to change, and with that, the Realm that they are in at the moment as well. The change was that a lot of Spiritual Energy started to gather in this place. Krune and a few other groups immediately recognized what was happening.

"There they come."

Sure enough, it was just like Krune and Ricarte said. The cultivators and demon beasts that weren't here yet started to appear one after another. Those were obviously the ones who were late or gave up moving forward at all. Surprisingly, Krune saw that Demon Beast, which he gave the Shell Repairing Pill.

'Oh, he is still alive, and even broke through into the 7th Stage of the Core Formation Realm.'

The newcomers looked around, puzzled. But soon, they gathered information with the others and understood the situation.

Around a minute later, the situation stabilized, and the teleportations stopped.

Krune then approached the gate and touched it.

-Total number present: 16-

Krune narrowed his eyes. There is a total of 18 Jade Slips from Mohie Zarks, but only 16 are present now. The others also felt puzzled by that situation.

"Could it be that the owners of the other two died?"

"Probably."

"What about the Jade Slips, then?"

"Why are you aking me? Even if I knew, I wouldn't tell you anyway."

The Seal on the Spatial Gate then changed once more, and this time, two bright lights appeared above everyone. A few seconds later, the light disappeared, and two Jade Slips could now be seen. The Jade Slips then started to drop on the ground since no one was holding them.

Any idiot would understand which kind of Jade Slips those two are.

"The Jade Slip Keys!"

For the two of them to appear here alone, it was evident that their owners were already dead. Also, anyone could imagine that those Jade Slips would have some critical use from now on.

Immediately, a fierce battle for the two Jade Slips started.

Krune looked at his group and shook his head.

"Don't intervene. Even if we didn't have one, the risks would not be worth it. Let alone that we do have one."
