Sure enough, Krune received information just a few days later. Quite a few cultivators and demon beasts had been asking around about them. From the looks of it, two of those guys were even in the Void Breaking Realm.
Still, the majority was in the Soul Forging Realm with a few in the Divine Soul Realm. From the numbers so far, Krune believed that the enemy's group had a total of 15 or so members. Krune tracked the path they were doing and their cultivations, especially the Void breaking Realm ones.
Finally, he found his target and moved out. He had just confirmed the position of the two Void Breaking Realms, so he wasn't afraid of the rest. But just to be certain, Krune selected one of the three Divine Soul Realm members.
Krune moved fast and teleported to the Wisp World 7, where the guy had been seen. Krune even had the wisps pay attention to where he was going. After arriving at the place informed, he spread his Divine Sense and looked for someone that fit the description. As expected, the cultivator that Krune was looking for was just 20 or so KM away from him.
Krune moved as fast as lightning and soon arrived in front of the guy. He wasn't any genius or anything like that, just an ordinary cultivator. But Krune was sure that he was part of the enemy's group since he was looking for someone who looked exactly like Feifei's real appearance. The number of people and beasts that know both her name and appearance are few and far between, so it should be impossible for this guy to know it.
'Which means that he got information from the guys from the Luvile Universe.'
The guy got a fright when he saw Krune appearing right in front of him. Krune used his Tribulation Lightning Movement, so an ordinary Divine Soul Realm couldn't possibly be as fast as him. Before he could even move, he was struck by Krune's Tribulation Lightning and immediately lost his conscience. He took the guy's body and wrapped it in Tribulation Lightning. After that, Krune returned to the Wisp Main World.
Rania and Hobbek noticed the change in position of one of the Heavenly Fragment Owners, but it went back to the Wisp Main World just a few minutes later. By the looks of it, Rania and Hobbek had the same idea.
"Probably, they found out one of our guys."
Rania nodded.
"Let's try to contact every one and see if someone isn't answering."
Sure enough, a guy called Arbane Crarel, who was at the 8th Stage of the Divine Soul Realm, wasn't answering his communicator anymore.
"Alright, the rest of you can come back now. We got enough information already anyway."
Hobbek decided to recall the rest of the group since it seemed to not be necessary anymore.
Also, he was right about having enough information. It wasn't difficult to find out that a new wisp with amazing abilities had appeared just around 4 years ago. He first became famous as an Alchemist, and recently, he is also creating big waves as a Blacksmith. But what really confirmed Hobbek and Rannia suspicion was the so-called Purple Flame.
Luvile Universe's Tribulation is a Purple Lightning, and they know at least that Krune is a Tribulation Lightning user. Even though what he is using is called Purple Flame, the time of his appearance and especially his talent left almost no room for doubt. It could only be the Krune. The only reason they kept staying the Wisp Worlds was to see if they could get permission to enter the Wisp Main World to investigate further. But by the looks of it, Krune has a good grasp of the Wisps in that place. So keeping the rest there would just reduce their numbers one by one.
"Besides, we should be able to talk with him very soon."
Hobbek was right, back in the Wisp Main World, Krune's group was looking at Arbane Crarel, who was locked down. Krune used a little bit too much force on him, so he took an entire day to wake up again.
"This..."
Krune sighed and went straight to the point.
"You can try to escape if you want, but I don't think you will be able to in the Wisp Main World. Anyway, the reason I brought you here is very simple. Your bosses should be looking for me, so call them with your communicator. I want to have a little chat with them."
Arbane was taken aback. He hadn't expected to be brought to the Wisp Main World that he was trying to enter during the last few days. Still, this wasn't exactly the way he wanted this to happen. Looking at everyone in the room, he knew that trying to escape would be a foolish action. Especially when he looked at Laex. That Demon Beast in human form was giving him chills.
"A-Alright."
A communicator only worked if the owner wished it, no one else could force their use.
Arbane quickly turned it on and accessed a specific contact ID. Krune also asked him to connect it to the monitor in the room and for his group to stay out of the camera.
Sure enough, the call was answered almost instantly.
Hobbek and Rania were already expecting this, so when they say Krune, they didn't feel the least bit surprised.
Hobbek started to talk first with a smile on his face.
"Well, I guess you are the guy called Krune that the Palace Master told us about, or should I call you Jolk instead?"
Krune shrugged his shoulders.
"Either one is fine. Still, I have no idea who you are, so what about a self-introduction?"
Hobbek put one of his hands on his face.
"Right! How could I forget about something like this? My name is Hobbek Javiu, the Yang Heavenly Fragment Owner. This beautiful woman beside me is my wife, Rania Javiu, the Yin Heavenly Fragment Owner."
Krune was taken aback, he was expecting an alliance between two Heavenly Fragment Owners, but not to the point where they are married to each other. After all, he and Feifei are in a similar situation. It is just that they haven't really 'married' yet.
"How is that possible? What about the Heavenly Divine Soul? One of you two is gonna need to give up the Heavenly Fragment if you want it in the future, you know?"
Hobbek laughed after hearing that.
"Of course, we do. But that is something for us to care about after all the other Heavenly Fragments have been collected. For now, we are very happy the way we are. Anyway, what about you? How come I can't see Feifei anywhere?"
Krune smiled as well.
"Don't worry, she is here too just on the other side of the room, hearing everything. If you have something to ask her, she can answer straight away."
Hobbek and Rania got puzzled. They already know how Feifei looks like, so why is she not appearing in this call? Still, if she didn't want to show herself, there is nothing they can do.
"That won't be necessary. As long as Feifei is hearing, that is enough."
Krune nodded and went straight to the point.
"I will be direct here. We have no intention to gather all the Heavenly Fragments. The very reason we came to Dalin was precisely to avoid this meaningless pursuit. Still, we didn't know about the Heavenly Fragment Resonance before. As long as you simply leave and don't bother us, we can still live our lives as if nothing happened."
Rania shook her head beside Hobbek.
"That can't be done. Do you know just how important a Heavenly Divine Soul is to our Luvile Universe?"
Krune nodded.
"You are talking about the Heavenly Competition, right? To be honest, I couldn't care less about it. First of all, do you really think we have a chance to get one of the Five Slots? I'm sorry, but I don't believe so. There are already Heavenly Divine Souls here in Dalin practicing for this very event. What could a Universe as late as ours that is far from getting gathering all the fragments do? By the time a Heavenly Divine Soul is finally formed, the other Universes' participants will have long since left our representative in the dust."
Hobbek was impressed that Krune knew this much.
"I guess my friend here wasn't wrong, the Wisp World is really well informed about things. That is correct, we want the full Heavenly Divine Soul so that we can try to get a slot for our Luvile Universe. Of course, a Heavenly Divine Soul has several other uses too, but I will not enter into details now."
"As for your question, I can guarantee you that we have a good chance of getting one of the five slots. Let me ask you, what did happen after you got that extra Heavenly Fragment? Oh! Don't come at me saying that it wasn't the two of you. I already know about the Mohie Clan Inheritance, where a powerful colored wisp appeared. After we confirmed that you were definitely a wisp, we did our homework. It wasn't hard to find the information on the Mission Hall Network. Mohie Clan Inheritances are quite famous, after all."
"Besides, when Rania and I felt the presence of that Heavenly Fragment, it was coming precisely from that Inheritance direction. But it soon disappeared, which means that the Heavenly Fragment has already been absorbed. We just had to connect the dots to understand what happened."
Krune sighed and then nodded. With that amount of evidence, it would be idiotic to deny it.
"You are correct, we were the ones who got that Heavenly Fragment. But before you say anything, know that we only bumped on that guy by mere coincidence. Both sides had no idea that the other would appear there. If the other side hadn't driven us into a corner, we wouldn't do anything, nor would we end getting this Heavenly Fragment."
Of course, Krune left out the fact that they were probably baited there by Wally or someone else.
Hobbek shook his head.
"If you wanted it or not matters little. What I want to talk about is the side effects of getting another Heavenly Fragment. You definitely know that already, though. As soon as you or Feifei absorbed that thing, your cultivation got a boost, and there was no side effect what so ever, right? Also, your comprehension of the Laws related to that Fragment definitely soared too."
Krune finally understood where he was coming from.
"So what you are saying is that as long as someone gathers all the fragments, you can definitely catch up with the ones who already have a Heavenly Divine Soul."
Hobbek smiled.
"Not too bad. As long as I or Rania finish or Heavenly Divine Soul, we will definitely catch up with the others. In the end, it will come to the other's resources, techniques, talents, etc. I will tell you a little secret. Our Extreme Yin Yang Palace is especially confident about this next Heavenly Competition. That is all I can tell you, though."
Krune narrowed his eyes. If that is the case, none of the Heavenly Fragment Owners will give it up easily.
"So... what do you propose?"
