Chapter 343: Three Slots

Although many cultivators and demon beast were fighting for the Jade Slips, more than half of the groups without one didn't take part in it. First, because they weren't at the level that they could have a change of keeping it. And second, even if they did get a Jade Slip, they wouldn't be strong enough to protect it after.

As for the Jade Slips owners, only Uer wanted to take part in that fight. But he was stopped by Mino Jan. No one knows what Mino said to convince that maniac to stop from jump right in the middle.

Soon, the difference in power between the groups fighting became apparent, and the ones who knew that they weren't strong enough retreated. In the end, the last two Jade Slips found their new owners. Of course, it wasn't without casualties. In this exchange, over 30 cultivators and demon beasts died.

With everything resolved, the Jade Slip owners then approached the Spatial Gate and brought out their own. The gate counter then reached 18, and the seal started to fade away.

But at the same time, a new stream of information flowed into everyone's mind.

-Each Jade Slip Key is worth three slots. Once the Jade Slip holder selects his two companions, he may enter the gate. As for the inheritance acquired, that will depend on your luck.-

The Cultivators and Demon beasts' groups without a Jade Slip couldn't help but get angry.

"What about us? Are we to sit here and wait?"

"This is not fair, I came here for the inheritance, not just some resources!"

"I can't believe that I made this far for nothing!"

As if answering everyone's complaints, a new Spatial Gate appeared just beside the main one. There were no seals or anything like that. It was open for anyone who wanted to try. Rarol looked at that new gate and felt a chill on his back.

"This new gate... is no good."

Krune's group immediately looked at him. If Rarol's instinct is saying so, then it most likely correct.

Krune looked back at his group members and then asked.

"So, how are we gonna do this? It doesn't seem like we have many choices."

Ruik asnwered through a Divine Sense Message..

"Simple. You, Feifei, and Dilo will enter the main gate. You three make the strongest front that we have at the moment. The rest of us will enter the other one."

Kruen and Feifei nodded. They know that although Rarol said that the new gate is dangerous, the main one is probably even more. That's because only the powerful ones will be entering the main gate this time. Not to mention that Krune and Feifei still don't know whose the other Major Divine Soul Owners are. But one thing was sure, they would definitely enter as well.

"Very well, I will tell you what we found inside once we get back."

Dilo looked at Xankruan and got worried. But before he could ask to change team, Xankruan messaged him with her Divine Sense.

"No need to worry, you guys have Feifei, and we have Rarol. Besides, I didn't come here so that you would have to protect me."

Dilo sighed and then nodded.

But just as Krune finished selecting their members, Joiu came forward to ask.

"Darten, can't you leave one of the three slots for me?"

Krune looked at him and then said.

"But you are still at the Peak of the Divine Soul Realm. I'm not looking down on you, but can you fight against those guys at the 5th Stage of the Soul Forging Realm? My friend definitely can, and I have a reason to have Fina following us too."

Jou smiled and then extended his two hands forward.

"You two, give me your hands for a second."

Feifei and Krune looked at him puzzled but still touched on of his hands each.

Suddenly, the two of them felt a surge of life energy coming into their bodies. What impressed them was how pure, and at the same time, how concentrated it was. Both Krune and Feifei are already in the Divine Soul Realm and even know one Sub-Law of the Light Laws. But they wouldn't be able to do even 1/10 of what Joiu was doing.

They only needed a second to understand what was happening.

'Life Major Divine Soul!'

Krune and Feifei were also impressed by how long he concealed it. During all the battles they passed through, not even once had Joiu showed his real power. But one thing was sure, Joiu could already fight at the Soul Forging Realm level without using the power of his Life Divine Soul, so he would definitely be a lot stronger when he decides to do it.

Krune then talked with his group members through Divine Sense message, and they reached the conclusion that it was worth a try. Especially with someone like Uer out there.

Dilo was especially happy to be able to go with Xankruan, which made the later sigh.

Krune looked at Joiu and then nodded.

"Very well, you will be taking his place."

This time, it was Joiu who got surprised. He thought that they would definitely take Fina out to put him, not the 3d Stage Soul Forging Realm guy. Joiu then decided to send Krune a Divine Sense message.

"Darten, are you sure that this is the best set up? I know about your friend's ability with divination, but it won't be of much use if she can't protect herself."

Krune couldn't help but laugh out loud after hearing that.

"Don't worry, you still haven't seen what she is really capable of."

Joiu felt a little doubtful after hearing that, but he decided to trust Krune for now. It was because he knew how strong Krune really is that his words carried that weight.

"Very well, I will follow your arrangement. How will we distribute the treasures, artifacts, resources, and other things?"

Krune stopped at that moment. Because he wanted to go with Dilo, they could simply decide to do the shares later. But with Joiu going in instead, they would need to agree with it now.

"How about this: 50% for me and Feifei and 50% for you. If we happen to find something unique, we will take them in order. I only have one condition, that gem that we saw on the wall image, I want it."

Joiu pondered a bit and decided to agree. Krune had no need to bring him together, so this is already a good thing. Not to mention that there is nothing that guarantees they will find that gem. In that case, Krune's offer was already very generous.

"Very well, that shall be it."

Krune nodded and then sent a message to Heavin, who was busy looking into the Soul Techniques that they acquired.

"Heavin, we are entering now. Just to be safe, I'm going to keep full control until it is over."

Heavin heard that and agreed.

"Very well, you better not die in there. After all, I would die too."

Krune's mouth twitched a little.

'Is that the only reason you don't want me to die?'

Heavin then continued.

"But... about Feifei..."

Krune smiled and answered.

"I know."

Krune then took control of his Divine Soul and put the Parrot Puppet back in his Spatial Ring.

He then looked at Ruik and the others and said.

"Alright, let's go!"

Krune approached the Spatial Gate and brought his Jade Slip out. Beside him was Krune's and Joiu's group to make sure no one would try to intervene. When the other noticed Krune's group level, they were taken aback. There wasn't a single Soul Forging Realm in between them!

The Spatial Gate activated, and Krune's group disappeared inside. As for Ruik and the others, they didn't waste any time and immediately passed through the second gate as well.

Krune decided on a group in just a minute, but even so, they were one of the last ones to enter. Right after, the last two groups passed through the gate as well.

When Krune, Feifei, and Joiu appeared on the other side, they were in front of a castle, or at least, that's what it looked like. Krune didn't waste any time and immediately returned to his Wisp Form. Uer, Ricarte, and a few other Major Divine Soul Owners had also joined this last struggle, after all. Not to mention that Krune still doesn't know who the others are.

After transforming back, Krune also brought out his remaining Flying Shields. But that wasn't all. He extended his Tribulation Lightning Layer, which would prevent anyone from sensing his group through Divine Sense.

"Shall we go?"

Although Krune didn't have an expression in his wisp form, Feifei and Joiu could tell how serious he was taking this.

Unfortunately, they couldn't move more than a few steps before hitting a wall! At first, they couldn't see it, but after they slammed on that, the place where they hit glowed with light. Feifei looked at that and immediately said.

"This is definitely a protection formation, and a different one from the Elemental Path."

"Could it be that we can't enter the castle?"

Krune and the others then tried to move in other directions, but they soon realized that they were trapped inside it. Front, back, sides, up, and down, there was simply no way out of this thing.

"Maybe we have to destroy the formation first. Who knows, some kind of strength test?"

Joiu and Feifei felt that to be very unlikely, but they didn't have any other idea either. Not to mention that Feifei is far from being able to deactivate this formation.

Fortunately, Krune didn't have the time to do that. That is because right in front of them, a man who looked exactly like the one on the walls back on the other bubble realms appeared. The same one they thought to be Mohie Zarks! Well, to be more specific, it was just a projection of the same.
